Chapter 50: Don't Go Too Far 4
Waiting for Xiao Qi'er to help Dongfang Chen out of sight, He Lanjiu immediately left the Qinglou.
After leaving the green building, she went straight to the city gate!
She didn't really let people come to watch Dongfang Chen, she hurried to escape every minute and second, and she had to leave the imperial city as soon as possible.
Because after the excitement of revenge is gone, reason returns!
In a dark corner of her heart, she could only silently light wax for herself.
After today, I'm afraid Dongfang Chen Lingchi is in her mood!
Helan Jiu looked ahead, and saw that he was about to get to the gate of the city.
For some reason, she was always a little depressed in her heart, and she intuitively felt that leaving the city today would not be too smooth.
Sometimes a person's intuition is very accurate.
Helan Jiu approached the city gate, and suddenly, two men wearing the same clothes appeared and stopped her.
She recognized this dressed person, who should be from the Zhong family.
"Miss Jiu, please stay. The head of the house is invited. "One of them.
Helan Jiu's small willow eyebrows froze, and said, "You recognized the wrong person." I'm a boy. ”
Another said, "Miss Jiu, please don't make it difficult for us. The head of the house sent a lot of people out to look for you, and said that we would take you back to your house no matter what. ”
Helan Jiu found it tricky.
The head of the Zhong family sent a lot of people to look for her, and the four major city gates were guarded. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been recognized as soon as she appeared at the city gates. As for how these people suddenly recognized her, I'm afraid that her appearance was painted into a portrait.
At this moment, she was struggling and entangled in her heart.
If she could, of course she wanted to get out of town!
How far to escape, however, looking at the posture of these two people, if she resists, it is likely that she will be forcibly taken back.
Helan Jiu said: "What's wrong?" ”
If nothing had happened, she wouldn't have been stopped.
The older one said, "Miss Jiu will be clear when she goes back." ”
Unable to ask anything, Helan Jiu didn't give up and said, "What if I have to go out of the city today?" ”
"Then we'll have to force you back." The position where the two of them stood was to prevent her from escaping.
Everything went well, but the result was defeated by the Zhong family?
Helan Jiu was like swallowing a dead fly, disgusted to death.
With a small face, she could only follow the two back.
She walked slowly, though. The two of them still followed silently, not relaxing.
Helan Jiu quickly noticed that there was something unusual on the street today, and from time to time there were fast horses galloping by. She listened carefully, the ordinary people and vendors on the street were chatting and gossiping in private, and they spoke very quietly, but this did not bother her. Slowly she frowned, and many people mentioned that something had happened in the Hidden Palace, and the flames were soaring, and many people died.
At the beginning, Helan Jiu only thought that the Hidden King's Mansion had found that Dongfang Chen was gone.
But when I heard that many people had died, I was confused.
What else happened in the Hidden Palace?
Helan Jiu paused, looked back at the two people and asked, "Tell me, what happened in the Hidden Palace?" ”
"Didn't Miss Jiu escape from the palace?" One of them wondered.
"When I came out, the palace was fine."
“?! ……”
Soon, Helan Jiu knew what had happened.
The older man said, "Miss Jiu, a group of assassins came to the Hidden King's Mansion last night. However, the Hidden Palace, heavily guarded, repelled the Assassins. It was only at noon that a very strong monk came, almost washed the Hidden King's Mansion in blood, and also set fire to the Hidden King's main courtyard. ”
A group of people assassinated Dongfang Chen?
Before Helan Jiu stepped out of the secret room today, the palace had just been cleaned up.
However, not long after she left, another strong man came to the palace, almost washed the hidden palace in blood, and set fire to Dongfang Chen's courtyard. It is rumored that Dongfang Chen is still in the dormitory and has not come out, and his life and death are uncertain.
Indirectly, did she save his life?
