Chapter 229: Entering the Palace
A gang member at the door shouted: "It's Jia Lao Liu, it's Jia Lao Liu, they're back!" ”
Yue'er gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "Close the door and lock it!" ”
The gang was still in a daze, and the master of the Mu hall suddenly understood, rushed over and bolted the door shut, and locked the door with a wooden stake.
Outside, the horse's hooves exploded, the screams were endless, the master of the Mu Hall and a few gangs saw through the crack in the door, more than a dozen people running towards the Frost Leaf Pavilion were caught up by a group of cavalry from behind, either stabbed to death or trampled to death, and it was Jia Lao Liu who ran in the front, he was more than ten steps away from the gate, and was inserted with a long halberd, and the dead body fell to the ground.
Jia Laoliu's eyes looked at the door with a look of disbelief.
The cavalry rushed to the door, and someone banged twice on the door.
There was a bang not far away, as if someone's door had been knocked open, and the cavalry turned away.
Through the crack in the door, the master of the hall saw that the cavalry had rushed into a mansion in the distance, and screams and screams were heard from inside.
In a short time, the cavalry rushed out, and they waved their weapons and laughed wildly, like a group of hunters who had just caught some prey, and they ran back and forth in the street several times, and ran away into the distance with a whistle.
Master Mu changed color in shock, he suddenly understood, if Yue Ye didn't bring them back, everyone would definitely be on the street at this moment, if the door was not closed and locked, there would be no living people here, and the current Windy City has almost become a purgatory on earth.
Yue'er sighed.
"Master Mu, go collect their corpses, be careful!"
The master of the Mu hall threw himself on his knees.
"Master Yue, it's all the fault of your subordinates, your subordinates should be damned, please punish Master Yue!"
Yue'er shook her head.
"There are people in Gale City who are making trouble, this matter is not to blame on you, you take someone to clean up, and don't look at the gate!"
"Yes, yes."
"Okay, I'll leave it to you, I have something important to do."
"What's the matter, is there any danger?"
"Of course there is, but if you don't, Windy City might be even more dangerous!"
Master Mu was stunned for a moment, not knowing what Yue'er was going to do, he suddenly asked, "By the way, what about the eighth master, the eighth master is going with you?" ”
"He may be at the south gate, I don't know if something happened now, in case he can't come back, you will be fully responsible for the affairs here!"
Master Mu didn't expect Yue'er to hand over the power to himself, and he was at a loss for a while.
Yue'er nodded at the master of the Mu hall and led Zhao Zhen towards Yiyue Tower.
When she got downstairs, Yue'er asked Zhaozhen to wait for her below, and she went upstairs to quickly put on makeup and change clothes, and carried Concubine Duan's mask and two Ascending Immortal Pills in her arms, and then went downstairs.
When Zhao Zhen saw Yue'er's new appearance, he was stunned for a moment.
At this moment, Yue'er changed into a straight-necked placket, which was the costume of the palace maid, and she combed a simple Suiyun bun, with hair accessories and earrings.
Seeing Zhao Zhen in a daze, Yue'er said, "We're going to hurry up, come with me quickly, quickly!" "She was carrying an angry wind lamp in her hand, Zhao Zhen was very strange, in broad daylight, why did she light the lamp?
"Me, where are we going?"
"Go to the palace!"
Zhao Zhen was taken aback.
"Where do you enter the palace?"
"Follow me and you'll know!"
Yue'er took Zhaozhen to the backyard, and on the way, everyone in the gang bowed to her.
When she came to the backyard, Yue'er asked the two people who were guarding here to go out, she walked to the waste well, and saw that the waste well was covered with a straw mat, and the eighth master did a good job and covered it up well.
Yue'er pulled open the straw mat and looked down, there was a ladder underneath, which was left by the well digger, she nodded, found a thick wooden stick by the well, compared the height and threw it down.
Zhao Zhen is inexplicable.
Yue'er asked seriously: "Your Highness, now that the critical moment has come, Gale City is about to fall into chaos, are you willing to save your father and let him come out and regain power?" ”
"Of course I do!"
"What if it's dangerous?"
"No matter how dangerous it is, I'm going to try it!"
"Okay, then let me tell you, this waste well is a secret passage to the palace, this is how I entered the palace in the first place, and now we are going to save the emperor!"
Zhao Zhen looked at Yue'er in amazement, he didn't believe that there was such a secret passage here.
Yue'er smiled bitterly.
"There is a legend in our Windy City that in the past, your grandfather Zhaoxi had a relationship with a Qinglou girl, and this legend is true, that Qinglou girl once lived in the Frost Leaf Pavilion."
"Could it be that the girl in the Qinglou is Fang Fang, who has been famous in the world?"
"Not bad."
Yue'er climbed down the waste well with a lamp, and Zhaozhen followed.
Although the bottom of this well has been cleaned, there is a thick layer of rubble underneath, which has obviously not been cleaned up, but there is a big gap at the bottom of the well, and the people of the eighth master only dig this gap and dare not dig it again, because they don't know what is inside this gap.
Yue'er picked up the wooden stick she had just dropped and held it in her hand, she handed the lamp to Zhaozhen, and got into it first.
A moment later, a sound came from inside.
Zhao Zhen also got into it with a lamp.
A strong musty smell came to his face, and Zhao Zhen didn't hold his breath, choking and coughing a few times.
When Zhaozhen got in, Yue'er stabbed the gap a few times with the wooden stick in her hand, and a pile of gravel and mud fell, blocking the gap.
The two of them bent over and walked forward, slowly widening the passage.
Zhao Zhen finally relieved himself and asked, "Why did General Zhao and Zhao kill me?" ”
"Because he wants to help King Qi ascend the throne, you and King Yi are protected by the queen, and there will be no worries if you kill you!"
"King Qi, why?"
Zhao Zhen was confused.
"You don't have to know why, you just need to know that he wants to kill you!"
Zhao Zhen was even more confused, and wanted to ask again, but Yue'er had already quickened her pace and walked forward.
Walking out for a while, the front slowly narrowed again, and Yue'er's pace slowed down.
"Sister, this, where does this passage lead?"
"Baiyu Palace, have you forgotten that your sister lived in Baiyu Palace at the beginning?"
"Oh, then what are you doing with this stick?"
"Because the manhole cover of the Baiyu Hall was pressed by me with a heavy object, how can we get out without a stick on it?"
At that moment, Yue'er told her how she was chased and killed by Qihua Palace and how she fell into the waste well, Zhaozhen was speechless when it came to it, especially when it came to the true identity of Concubine Yuan, Baili Concubine was just an envoy of Qihua Palace, Zhaozhen was so shocked that he stopped and asked, "Sister, you, did you know from the beginning that my mother was a fake?" ”
Yue'er nodded and shook her head again.
"Alas, I didn't know it when I first met you, but then I knew, and I didn't dare to tell you, this matter is too incredible, I'm afraid you won't believe it!"
Zhao Zhen burst into tears.
"No wonder she said she forgot "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night", it was a poem beloved by the mother concubine, she once taught me word by word, how could she forget?"
Yue'er comforted: "Your Highness, you have to mourn, what we have to do now is to save the emperor from coming out, and he doesn't know where he is being held yet." ”
Zhao Zhen snorted: "If my father is not in Renming Palace, he must be in Qingshou Palace, there is a cellar there, last time his old man was locked there, but the queen must be strictly guarded, only the two of us, may not be able to save him!" ”
Yue'er nodded and said, "There is always a way, let's go in first and then talk about it, there is chaos outside today, and the palace may not have time to take care of it, we can take advantage of the chaos to save people!" ”
While talking, the two had come to the exit of the passage, Yue'er looked up first, and found that there was no light above her head, thinking that she had blocked it too much, and it seemed that it would take some time.
The passage was in the middle of the abandoned well, Zhao Zhen took an oil lamp to the mouth of the passage and took a photo, looked down and was startled, there were several corpses lying below.
"Who's down there?"
"It's Concubine Duan and the palace maid who was killed by her."
A cold sweat broke out on Zhao Zhen's back.
"It turns out that the previous legends about Concubine Duan in the palace are all true?"
"Yes, Concubine Duan is mean, the last time I was here, she was just about to push Rudong into the well, but Rudong had a lot of strength, but she pulled her down, I heard Rudong say that Su Xin, Lan Yue, and Qiu Tong were all pushed down by her and killed!"
Yue'er found a cloth bag hanging with a rope on the wall of the well, and the cloth bag contained two flying knives given to her by Xianyu Zhenren, she opened the cloth bag and found that the flying knives were wrapped in oiled paper, and they were still shiny, so she couldn't help but nod, put the flying knives into her sleeves, and threw the cloth bag aside.
