Chapter 17: Escape

General's Palace

Outside the door, through the bamboo window, you can see two shadows snuggling up to each other. Outside the window, it was raining, and the figures inside the door were faintly visible under the candlelight.

"Miss," Liu Yue blamed herself.

"Miss, you frightened the slave today, if you hadn't arrived in time, the slave would probably never see Miss again." Liu Yue said, and sobbed.

Yan Luoxue hugged Liu Yue, as if after a life-and-death parting.

"Silly girl, I won't let you get hurt! Absolutely not! ”

Liu Yue's eyes dimmed, I'm sorry, Miss, slave, I have been injured, for the sake of Miss, the slave is willing. Restrained his strange appearance, he smiled and said, "In the future, I will protect Miss." There's one thing I have to say to Miss, though! ”

Yan Luoxue had already expected it.

"Miss! That Yuwen is not a good thing, while you are not there, all the bad things will be said, Miss should be careful! ”

Yan Luoxue smiled suddenly, not surprised.

Liu Yue, who was on the side, was confused.

"I had expected that if I hadn't known about it, I would have been the one who died that day." Yan Luoxue's eyes became grim.

"Miss, you don't know anything?"

"Remember the night when I was drunk?" Yan Luoxue continued,

"On the night of Gu Yulin's state banquet, I was obviously drinking with the second son, but at that moment the assassin rushed in, but the second son disappeared, what does this mean?"

"Miss, these two things don't seem to have anything to do with each other?"

"Moreover, since I entered the General's Mansion, I have been repeatedly assassinated outside, but I am safe and sound in the General's Mansion, what does it mean?"

"Unless..."Liu Yue suddenly remembered.

"That's right, unless the second son knows my identity, it's not Su Yedie, but he pretends to please and is tired of this scene." Yan Luoxue's eyebrows curled.

"But Miss, who is it that will reveal your identity to Yuwentai?"

Yan Luoxue frowned slightly, she didn't know, it seemed that this general's mansion was not a place to live for a long time, and she had to find a way to escape.

"Liu Yue, you quickly go and prepare two sets of night clothes, prepare a hemp rope, and a dagger in case you need it."

"Yes, Miss!"

In the middle of the night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and because of the rain that had just fallen, the ground was wet and slippery. Yan Luoxue and Liu Yue changed their clothes.

Out of the door, Yan Luoxue walked in front, Liu Yue followed closely behind, through the garden, because there were guards at the main gate, the two of them had to work together inside and out.

The patrol guards took turns to patrol every other hour. The two must find the exit within an hour.

Yan Luoxue looked for a long time, and Liu Yue on the side was so anxious that she was sweating profusely. "Miss, I'll take the lead and follow me."

Yan Luoxue nodded. The two crept past the East Kitchen again, and immediately arrived at the East Courtyard.

Separated by a wall.

"Miss? What to do? Yan Luoxue looked around, and only one big tree was very close to the wall. In a flash of inspiration,

"Bring the rope,"

"Step on me, you go up first." Yan Luoxue tied one end of the rope to the big tree,

"Miss, what are you going to do?"

"I'm fine, you light, faster, Liu Yue!" Liu Yue climbed onto the wall with great effort.

"Miss! Come on! ”

Yan Luoxue's sweat beads kept dripping, and when she was anxious,

"Who? Who's there? ”

Yan Luoxue couldn't care so much, and dragged the rope to climb the tree, panting. For fear of being discovered, at this time, Liu Yue held the wall, crumbling, and the master and servant cooperated quite well.

"Miss! The man was gone. ”

Yan Luoxue jumped down, broke away from the tree, jumped to the eaves of the wall, and slowly crawled towards Liu Yue, Liu Yue finally grabbed Yan Luoxue's hand, and the two jumped down and finally climbed out of the wall.

gasping for breath, he escaped from the General's Mansion.
