Chapter 172: Can Spring and Autumn Escape?

"Liu Er, don't do stupid things, I don't want you to save me. Liu Er, please, don't do stupid things! ”

Chunqiu knelt on the ground and cried and pleaded. He didn't want to be a big hero when he saved them, he just wanted to save them. But now they want to die together for him.

"Benefactor, please go out and don't save people like us again. There are too many people like us to be saved! ”

He said sadly.

"Liu Er, you can't do this, if you die, what will happen to your wife? What about your son? ”

He cried and ran to the nearest corner and said through the railing door.

He knew the pain of losing a loved one, and he didn't want his wife to lose her husband and leave his son without a father at such a young age.

"We will still have a way, I will definitely save you from going out, don't worry, I will definitely save you out!"

He began to choke, began to tremble, and began to resent his incompetence.

"You don't do stupid things, can you? As long as it is past tonight, you believe me, as long as it is past tonight, I will save you out! ”

He gripped the railing tightly with one hand and wiped away his tears with the other.

"Benefactor, remember to take advantage of the chaos to escape later, leave us alone, escape as far as possible, and never come back here!"

Liu Er turned to look at the moonlight shining in from the window, and the corners of his mouth turned up. Then he slowly turned his head to look at these brothers who were not so familiar.

"Brothers, whoever goes first wants to quit is still too late, I won't embarrass anyone!"

After Liu Er finished speaking, he stood up and walked to the door and glanced to the side, but he didn't see Xia Dong, but he could only hear him sobbing.

"Benefactor, many times, it is more valuable to die than to live, I have been enough of being an inferior pariah, and I don't want to live like this anymore. Tell my child that his father is not a wreck! ”

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at his brothers, and what he saw was not ordinary people, but the faces of heroes, faces that looked at death as home, and faces that were not willing to be untouchables.

"Have you figured it out?"

He asked.

"You've figured it out!"

They said in unison.

"We are willing to save the benefactor out!"

They looked at each other a few times, which was regarded as mutual encouragement, and it was the last time they looked at each other before they died.

"Okay, Xiao Yue will pretend to be sick later, and as soon as the jailer opens the door, we will rush out, cover the mouths of the two of them, and then snatch the key from them and open the door of the benefactor's cell!"

He told everyone about his plan. In fact, it's not a plan, at most it's an instruction.

However, the operation was dangerous, requiring them to be calm, fast, and resolute not to back down. Only then will they be able to get their benefactor safe before the other soldiers arrive.

After Chunqiu heard their conversation, he didn't know what to say, because whatever he said would make him seem very small and helpless.

They are great, and it is not easy for them to be so calm under the obscenity of Grandpa Wei.

He could do nothing but be a useless waster and watch them die. The feeling of powerlessness and frustration made his heart ache so much that he couldn't breathe.

"Okay, Xiaoyue, when they come in to deliver food, you will say that your stomach hurts, and you must not show your stuffing, you know?"

Liu Er walked up to Xiao Yue and grabbed him on the shoulder, both as an encouragement to him and as a trust in her.

"Got it!"

Xiao Yue nodded, looked into his eyes and said.

......

Wanjun looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and the panic and anxiety in her heart for many days disappeared at once. He walked to the pavilion and sat on the stone bench, remembering when he and Xiyan were in Taichang Temple, when they would often sit in the lake pavilion and watch the moon together.

But these have become memories, and they have become indelible scars in his mind. He couldn't remember how long it had been since he had seen him, but in his heart, that time was the happiest time he had in the palace.

He is now a male concubine, but his life is not as good as before. He knew that Wei Zhongxian wanted to monopolize power, and the true emperor was still in the secret room.

"Xiyan, I don't know where you are? Have you ever thought about me? But I really miss you! Do you know? When you're here, I'll tell you what I'm thinking, but since you're gone, I don't know who to tell you. Now I am like a deer that has lost its direction, running around the forest wildly, running wherever it goes.

"Xiyan, are you? I seem to have found Chunqiu, I can feel that he is right next to me, he is not dead, he is watching me somewhere! ”

He walked to the lake, sat down, and watched as the surface of the lake was occasionally blown by the wind. He smiled helplessly, when did he become so sentimental? When did he become so vulnerable? Was he scared? Or have you had enough of living a lonely life with no edge in sight?

"Moon, what do you think I'm going to do? I feel more and more like a complete bad person. I don't live a solid life at all every day, I even feel that if I fall asleep today, will I be able to wake up tomorrow? ”

He stood up, patted the dust off his buttocks, and walked along the edge of the lake, draped in moonlight.

He wanted to go on like this, even if he was really a bad person, he would be wiped out without a trace in his footsteps.

......

"It's time to eat!"

Two jailers came over with a scavenged steamed bun and a bucket of rice with no rice missing.

When Liu Er and his brothers saw the jailer coming, they immediately tensed their nerves. He gave Xiao Yue a look to get him ready.

When Chunqiu saw the jailer coming, he immediately became nervous. If he exposed their plans now, they would have stopped, but they would still die.

But if he doesn't stop them now, they will be gone on the road of no return.

No, he still has to stop them in time, maybe he can go to Gonggong Wei to intercede. But he thought about it again, he was also a prisoner now, why should he intercede for them?

"Get up, eat!"

One jailer picked up steamed buns and threw a few into them, while the other placed the bowl by the railing, and the spoon scooped up the gruel and poured it inside.

At this moment, Xiao Yue suddenly began to roll in the cell, and he shouted "it hurts" while rolling.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts......"

He clutched his stomach and groaned in pain.

"My lord, please save him, please, he is only seventeen years old, please!"

Liu Er pleaded bitterly while leading everyone to kowtow to the two jailers.

"My lord, you see how painful he is, if he doesn't treat it again, he will ...... My lord, please save him! ”

Liu Er crawled to the cell door, looked at them with tears in his eyes and said.

"My lord, please save him!"

The people behind also said in unison.

"What should I do?"

The two jailers looked at each other for a moment, then hesitated and bitter.

Liu Er saw that they were shaken, so he said again: "My lord, save him, he is still a child!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yue began to roll in the cell again, shouting loudly.

"He seems to be really sick, why don't we go in and have a look?"

One jailer said as he looked at the other.

The other jailer hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, well, look at him and blame the pitiful, you can't let him die in this!" ”

After he finished speaking, he took out a bunch of keys from his waist, then walked over and opened the door, looked at Xiao Yue, and said as he walked: "You stay at the door, I'll go in and take a look!" ”

As soon as he walked to the door of Xiaoyue, he was grabbed by Liu Er's neck from behind, and then the others poured out of the door at once.

The jailer was just about to run when he was caught by someone who ran out. He was about to shout "help", but his mouth was also covered.

"Quick, go and open the door to your benefactor!"

Liu Er said to the others while putting his arm around the jailer's neck.

A middle-aged man ran over and took a bunch of keys from the jailer's waist with trembling hands.

Then he ran to the door of the Spring and Autumn cell, his hands were so shaky that he couldn't even hold the key. Instead of finding the key to open the cell door, he shook it incessantly.

Chunqiu was standing across from him, he raised his head and smiled at him in fear, then lowered his head again and began to look for the key.

"I said hurry up!"

Liu Er urged in the cell.

As soon as he heard Liu Er urging him, he nervously dropped the key to the ground. He quickly bent down and picked it up.

"Change someone, hurry, go quickly!"

Liu Er said in a low voice.

After the other person passed, the door of the Spring and Autumn cell was opened.

Liu Er saw that the door of Engong's cell was opened, and then punched the jailer in the back of the neck, and he fainted on the spot.

The other jailer was probably about to die from their beating, so they stopped.

"Engong, you change this jailer's clothes, and run in the opposite direction with us later, and you will slip away while they are not looking!"

Liu Er said while picking up the jailer's clothes.

"No, I'm not going to go, I'm going to go together!"

He seems to have played a petty character, and he stubbornly won't leave anyway.

Liu Er didn't speak, but handed him the clothes he had picked off.

"Benefactor, change into this dress, this may be the only thing we can do for you!"

He had tears in his eyes, but he smiled widely.

"Okay, I'll change!"

He took the clothes and endured the pain in his heart to keep himself from crying.

"Later, we will rush out and escort the benefactor to a safe place, and then we will run towards a place, remember, even if we die, we can't run in the direction of the benefactor!"

After they nodded, they noticed that the benefactor had also changed his clothes.

"Benefactor, I'll hold you hostage later, and when the soldiers come, I'll push you away, and then we'll run in the opposite direction!"

Liu Er grabbed his benefactor's neck and walked out, and not long after he went out, he saw the patrolling soldiers patrolling. And then they were discovered.

"Benefactor, run, don't look back!"

After he finished speaking, he pushed Chunqiu away and ran towards the soldiers.
