Chapter 673: The house leak happened to rain overnight
Princess Xuanbo and Wanyue then walked out, and when they saw the filthy scene around them, they screamed, but fortunately there was no one else around, and if they were heard, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Chen Lin was not familiar with the terrain in the palace, so he had to turn to Xuanbo's master and servant for help, and was sure that there was no one else around, so he lowered his voice and said to Xuanbo: "This should be the stable of the palace, do you know how to get out from here?" ”
Princess Xuanbo has always been pampered, although she has lived in the palace since she was a child, she has never been to the stables, and her knowledge of this place is limited to knowing that the stables are located in the northwest corner of the palace.
Wan Yue said: "There is a corner gate not far from here, I have been here before, and I remember the route to the corner gate. ”
Xuan Bo was pleasantly surprised: "Okay, Wanyue, you come to lead the way, let's leave this place as soon as possible." ”
Chen Lin smiled: "How to leave?" Do you want to go out with a swagger? ”
Xuan Bo said coldly: "Do you have any better way?" ”
At this time, there was a faint sound of coughing and wheezing in the distance, the three of them looked at each other and stopped talking at the same time, Chen Lin made a gesture to them, signaling the two to hide back in the dark passage, and he was often in the dark corner of the stable, quietly looking out, but saw an old man with a thin body, driving an ox cart full of barrels slowly towards the direction of the stable.
Chen Lin immediately guessed the identity of the old man, judging from his dress and attire, it was clear that he was the people who were responsible for cleaning up the horse manure, and the old man came to the front of the stable, and coughed and wheezed a few times in a row, and then unloaded the dung buckets on the car one by one, ready to load the car.
A bold idea arose from Chen Lin's mind, if they wanted to successfully escape from the palace, the dung truck in front of them was their best chance.
The old man came to the stable slowly, and began to clean up the horse manure with the dustpan in his hand, and at the moment when he bowed down to clean up, Chen Lin rushed up suddenly, and hit him on the back of the neck with a palm, the old man shook and fell to the ground, Chen Lin was worried that the old man's life would be endangered if he shot too hard, so he did not dare to exert all his strength.
Although the old man fell to the ground, he did not faint, he screamed in fright, Chen Lin was quick, covered his lips, and threatened in a low voice: "If you dare to speak out, I will kill you with a knife!" ”
The old man's cloudy eyes were full of horror, Chen Lin felt guilty in his heart, if it wasn't for the situation, he would not have done such a rude thing.
Xuan Bo and Wan Yue saw that Chen Lin had subdued the old man who was collecting dung, and also walked out of the shadows, Wan Yue found a rope to help Chen Lin tie up the old man, and blocked his mouth with a cloth ball.
Princess Xuanbo was deeply unbearable when she saw them treating an old man in such a way, and said apologetically: "Old man, you have been wronged...... "Take a pure blonde hairpin with hollow filigree from her head and put it in front of the old man as compensation for him.
Chen Lin quickly took off his robe, took off the old man's clothes from him, put them on himself, picked up the hat on the ground, and put it on his head.
Xuan Bo and Wan Yue had already understood Chen Lin's intentions, Xuan Bo looked at the dung bucket on the side, and said secretly in his heart: "It's so dirty here, how can I hide inside?" ”
Chen Lin lifted the dung bucket and quickly filled the dung bucket, and the two buckets in the middle only contained half a bucket of horse manure, and then brought cold water from the water tank of the stable and poured it into the dung bucket. His eyes turned to Xuanbo and Yuyue, and he looked like he was inviting you into the urn.
Xuan Bo bit her lower lip hard, she already understood that there was no other choice but this method. Decisively stepping into the dung bucket, she couldn't help but shiver as stimulated by the cold and bone-chilling fecal water, and the stench almost suffocated her, and it was the first time in her life that she had suffered such torture.
Wanyue used the short knife she carried with her to cut off the bamboo next to the stable, cutting it into two hollow and transparent sections, which were used for ventilation when necessary.
Chen Lin loaded all the dung buckets onto the ox cart, and was sure that there were no flaws, so he leaned over and drove the ox cart swaggering towards the corner gate.
When the ox cart passed through the corner gate, he saw eight guards standing there with torches held high, shouting from afar, "Who are you?" ”
Chen Lin hurriedly bowed up, coughing violently, and one of them laughed: "Who should I be, it turned out to be an old man who collects dung......" Chen Lin drove the ox cart unhurriedly towards them.
One of the guards scolded: "What's on the car? It was so rancid that the old man became more and more disadvantaged, and all of them were spilled outside! ”
Several people flashed to the side at the same time, fearing that they would accidentally get on horse manure.
Chen Lin wished that they would go as far as possible, and he had just driven the ox cart through the corner gate, but he didn't expect a guard to catch up again, and he said loudly: "It's better to check, there are too many things happening in the palace tonight, and if something goes wrong, we can't afford it!" ”
Chen Lin's heart was pounding, he was afraid that Xuan Bo and Wanyue in the dung bucket would be discovered by these guards, and he quietly made up his mind that as long as they were discovered, he would fight with them.
The guard said coldly, "Open all the dung buckets!" ”
Chen Lin had no choice but to lift the lid on the dung bucket, the guard looked in by the light of the torch, and did not see anything abnormal, he didn't seem to give up, picked up the spear in his hand again, and poked into the dung bucket one by one.
Chen Lin's heart has already mentioned his throat and eyes, and if he continues like this, he will definitely be exposed.
The spear poked into the dung bucket where Wanyue was hiding, but there was a burst of laughter behind her, and several guards laughed at the same time: "Zhou Dawu, your ability to stir up is really powerful, and you will definitely be promoted and make a fortune another day." ”
The guard was ridiculed by his companions, and immediately dismissed the idea of continuing the search, and smiled indifferently: "I just do what I am told from above!" ”
"Come and have a drink, don't let this stinking dung truck ruin the appetites of the brothers!"
Chen Lin secretly called luck, the clothes on his back were already soaked with cold sweat, and he drove the ox cart slowly out of the inner city of the palace, although he experienced many checkpoints along the way, but fortunately he did not encounter danger again and left the palace safely.
Looking at the night sky is still full of stars, and the sound of beating is heard on the street from time to time, Chen Lin did not dare to return to his Chunhui clinic, and drove the ox cart straight out of the imperial capital.
After turning into the path, there was no one in sight, Chen Lin climbed into the ox cart and opened the dung bucket where Xuan Bo and Wan Yue were hiding, Xuan Bo crawled out of the dung bucket with filth, took the sweat towel in Chen Lin's hand to wipe the filth on his face, remembered the grievances he had just suffered, and felt sad for a while, and couldn't help crying.
Chen Lin's attention was still in the dung bucket where Wanyue was hiding, after lifting the lid of the bucket, she never showed her head, she already felt bad in her heart, she didn't care about the filth of the feces, her arms reached into the bucket, touched Wanyue's body, took her out of the dung, and wiped the filth on her face, but saw that Wanyue still had her eyes closed, she didn't breathe, her heartbeat had stopped for a long time, and her neck was bloody, but she was stabbed by the guard when she went out of the palace to check just now.
