Chapter 379: Rescue
"Jia Qing, the guard of the West City Gate, is my old friend, after King Zhuang ascended the throne, he was transferred from the army to be the junior general guarding the gate, he held a grudge against it, and I found him and persuaded him easily. In front of her, all Wuyi Hou could do was keep up with the speed at which she thought and did things.
The West Gate is very good, and the dark passage is in the opposite direction, so that they are safer! Peng Mo pressed the joy in his heart, nodded and said: "Then go from the West City Gate and meet fifty miles outside the city." ”
"This is the waist card, please put it away. The Marquis of Wuyi said and took out a square carved tiger waist card from his arms: "When you get to the West City Gate, as long as you show this waist card, Jia Qing will understand." ”
Peng Mo glanced sideways at Si Yue. The latter stepped forward to take the waist card and put it in his arms.
"At the right time, I will listen to Hou Ye's movements, and after rescuing the Martial Queen, I will order someone to set off fireworks sticks, and at that time, Hou Ye can retreat. ”
"Yes. The Marquis of Wuyi nodded, watching Peng Mo leave, he hurriedly walked out of the teahouse and went straight to the Hou Mansion.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night!
By that time, the guards were in place.
Peng Mo did not go to the outside of the Heavenly Prison, but waited on the necessary path to the dark passage, which was only half an hour away from the Heavenly Prison.
One moment, two hours... At the end of the day....
Liuying looked at Peng Mo's back, stepped forward and whispered, "Master, it's time!"
Peng Mo nodded, and Qing Ling's eyes turned, looking in the direction of the Southern Yan Imperial City.
I whispered silently in my heart, Marquis Wuyi, you must be more angry!
Because of Qi Mu's dozens of prison robberies, the defense of the heavenly prison has been strengthened a lot, if it can't be successful this time, then King Zhuang will definitely send more people again!
At that time, if you want to rob the prison again, it will be difficult to go to the sky!
On the other side, on the edge of the majestic imperial city, dozens of small detachments of nearly 100 people were hidden in the surrounding houses, under the river, and on the branches of trees.
The cold night is full of excitement, waiting for the moment when the time comes.
The Marquis of Wuyi looked up, the white moon hung in the sky, and the cold temperature made him grit his teeth, his hand raised high, and fell heavily.
As soon as he landed, a rain of arrows shot straight into the imperial city.
The red lacquer palace gate suddenly became a hedgehog, and there was a commotion inside the city wall.
The torches were lit, and the tower of the city gate began to increase troops one after another.
Again, the arrows were shot out and nailed mercilessly to the walls and the soldiers on them.
The person who was shot fell down the tower, and in the silent night, murder was everywhere, and the smell of blood overflowed.
"Master, it's already done. Liuying listened to the movement in the direction of the imperial city and shouted in a low voice.
Peng Mo nodded, her hands under the cloak were tightly twisted together, she inhaled deeply, and her eyes gradually deepened.
The Imperial City is very close to the Heavenly Prison, and the guards outside the Heavenly Prison will definitely support when they see the Imperial City being attacked.
On the contrary, if it is discovered that the Heavenly Prison is the main purpose of this night's operation, then it is also very quick to send troops from the Imperial City to the Heavenly Prison!
Therefore, the process of Si Yue and Zhang Ze's actions must be shortened within one cup of tea.
Liuying looked at Peng Mo's solemn expression, and said in a low voice of relief: "Master, they are all fast horses, as long as people rescue the heavenly prison and reach the dark passage from here, it won't take two quarters of an hour, and the Marquis of Wuyi will hold out for half an hour, and we have enough time." ”
Peng Mo didn't respond, she held her breath and listened intently to the sound of swords clashing in her ears from afar across the empty street.
Si Yue, they acted!
The fist was clenched tighter and tighter, Sakura's lips were pursed, forming a taut straight line, and Dai's eyebrows were slightly frowned, containing tension and worry.
Looking at Peng Mo's appearance, Liuying also became nervous.
They acted extremely quickly, investigating, visiting, making plans, and implementing the operation in just two days.
There must be loopholes in this, so their magic weapon to win is to take advantage of their unpreparedness and time.
The flames under the imperial city rose up, lighting up half of the sky, and Peng Mo could feel the murderous and scorching aura through the heavy houses.
I spent a cup of tea anxiously waiting....
Peng Mo's eyes were firmly fixed in the direction of the prison, and the dark and silent night seemed to engulf people, and her heart was lifted.
The sound of horses' hooves finally sounded on the long street.
Liu Hotaru jumped up excitedly: "Master, it must be them, they succeeded!"
The sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer, and at this moment, Peng Mo is very afraid, she is afraid that she will see that it is not what she wants.
Under the cold moonlight, Si Yue was the first to appear in the field of vision.
Peng Mo laughed, and his heart finally fell, only to realize that a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back.
Si Yue rode a horse and took the lead to the place where Peng Mo was hiding, and said, "Princess, it's done!"
Peng Mo raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face, nodded and said, "Hurry up." He turned over and got on his horse.
"Mo'er. Peng Hao reined in beside Peng Mo and looked at Peng Mo on horseback in shock.
In the night, she couldn't see Peng Hao's appearance clearly, let alone where he was injured, but his voice had always been hearty, but at this time, he was weak, and she whispered with red eyes: "Third brother." ”
"In that direction, chase quickly!" came the shouting behind them, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see the torches illuminating the long street, stretching far away, like a fire dragon.
Zhang Ze gritted his teeth fiercely and scolded in a low voice.
Si Yue frowned: "The guards of the prison are chasing after you!" She was a little surprised, she didn't expect them to chase so fast!
"Let's go!" Peng Mo looked cold, and with an order, everyone moved together.
The sound of horses' hooves was particularly crisp at night, but the sound also succeeded in attracting the guards who were chasing after them.
"Princess, you go first. Zhang Ze let out a low sigh and beckoned a few people to break off.
In a moment, there was a sound of fighting behind him, Peng Mo gritted his teeth, shook the whip fiercely, the horse neighed, and ran faster and faster.
Peng Hao looked at Peng Mo on horseback, his eyes were a little hot.
There were no more words, and they galloped all the way to the dark passage, they jumped off their horses, and Qi Mu greeted them with torches.
"The princess will go first, and we will cover up the traces around the dark passage. Si Yue and the five secret guards got back on their horses.
Peng Mo ordered the wounded soldiers to go into the secret passage, and seeing that all the secret guards had penetrated in, she herself had no intention of moving.
Peng Hao looked at it, stepped forward and said, "Mo'er, you go first, I'll wait here." "He'd always known her mind best.
Under the light of the torch, Peng Mo clearly saw Peng Hao's blood-stained clothes, sniffed, and said, "Third brother, they came out with me, I must wait." He said with a smile and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely follow." ”
Peng Hao knew Peng Mo's stubbornness and her persistence, so he took a deep look at her and said, "I'm waiting for you at the other end of the dark tunnel!"
After half a cup of tea, the sound outside gradually subsided, and the cold wind blew, blowing the torches and hunting.
Under the firelight, Peng Mo stood straight, his eyes staring at the direction where Si Yue and the others left without blinking.
Qi Mu and Liu Hotaru glanced at each other, and they both frowned.
"Master, you go first, I'll go to meet you. Qi Mu said that he was about to get on the horse.
"Don't go!" Peng Mo spoke, his voice cold and deep.
"Master.... Qi Mu was a little surprised, frowned and said in a low voice: "Master, although I was injured, it was also a help." ”
Peng Mo swallowed the choked sobs between the roars, and said in a low voice: "Wait another quarter of an hour, if you don't come back, let's go!" After speaking, hot tears fell down.
At this moment, she can't take care of everything, all she can do is minimize the casualties!
Liuying knew how difficult it was for Peng Mo to make this decision, so she suppressed her tears and did not respond.
The night was silent, and the three of them stood silently at the entrance of the dark passage.
The roof behind them suddenly remembered the sound of footsteps, and the three of them turned to look, and saw Zhang Ze, Si Yue and others jumping down.
Si Yue sighed and stepped forward and said: "Master, they are chasing closely, we are afraid that we will be found in the dark crossing, so we spare some more roads, and finally jump off the horse, let the horse run away, and lead away the pursuers, so we can get out proudly." ”
Looking at the few people who were in high spirits, Peng Mo took a few breaths, but still couldn't speak, just nodded and said, "Let's go." ”
Si Yue was a little puzzled and looked at Liuying.
Liuying deliberately slowed down, pulled Si Yue and said, "I can't wait for you, the master is in a hurry, and I almost thought that you were going to die in another country!"
Si Yue smiled and said: "What's so terrible about death? Who hasn't been conscious of being a secret guard?" As soon as the words fell, Peng Mo's ridiculous voice came from the front: "It's good to die, I'll give Qianmian another family when I return to Beijing." ”
Si Yuedeng's face turned red, and he remembered a low laugh in the secret passage.
At the other end, Peng Hao leaned over, his ears were close to the ground, and when he heard the sound of footsteps coming from under the surface, the tension in his heart was reduced a little.
Peng Mo and the others drilled out of the secret passage one after another, compared to the killing machine in the city, this outside the city can be described as very quiet and desolate.
Without lingering, the group quickly disappeared into the night.
On the other side, two secret guards escorted King Wu to the West City Gate and showed their waist cards.
Jia Qing listened to the movement in the city, he had been waiting anxiously, and when he saw King Wu at this moment, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly opened the city gate to greet him.
The Dark Guard took out the firework stick in his arms, lit it, and threw it upwards with all his might.
With a "bang", colorful fireworks bloomed in the sky.
"What is this for?" the Martial King looked at the Dark Guard in confusion.
"When the Marquis of Wuyi saw this firework, he understood that he had rescued His Highness and would make peace with you!"
King Wu nodded, with a smile on his face, it turned out that this was the case, Peng Mo's mind was really delicate!
"Where's your master!" he couldn't wait to see her!
"His Royal Highness has been rescued, there is no need for the master to stay any longer, he has already left Nanyan. ”
"What, she's gone!" King Wu was shocked, she... How could she go!
He hasn't thanked him in person!
He hadn't asked her why she had come to her rescue!
Why did she say goodbye without saying goodbye!
"Yes, our master has already left, and the master has to tell His Highness that he should not stay in the city for a long time, the Marquis of Wuyi will find a chance to get out, and His Highness should go out of the city immediately at this time, so as to live up to the friendship of everyone who sacrificed their lives to save each other. After speaking, without waiting for King Wu to answer, he turned around and disappeared into the night.
