Chapter 301: Escape
"It's nothing, we are inferior, and it is our duty to be called, so what's wrong with it." The little guy shook his head helplessly, and also relaxed his vigilance against Li Chuxia.
"Okay brother, don't look at it, it's just such a little girl, Concubine Jing still sent so many of us to watch. On this sunny day, it is still the most comfortable to sleep. "A guard came over to greet the little guy, which was exactly what Li Chuxia was thinking.
"This ...... Will it work? What if Concubine Jing is to blame? "The little guy is a little jealous.
"This big lock is locked, she can't escape!" The guard who took the lead said and glared at Li Chuxia.
After the few men finished speaking, they leaned against the railing of the cage and began to doze off.
Li Chuxia took advantage of their snoring like thunder, the thinnest end of the hairpin poked into the lock outside the cage, after several pondering attempts, "curry", the lock opened the chain and fell, Li Chuxia gently dragged the lock to the door, to prevent the sound.
Li Chuxia lightly got out of the cage, turned around and closed the door. When she turned around, she saw that the guards and maids were still asleep happily, and she breathed a sigh of relief, but the injuries on her body and the long-term exposure to the sun made her tingling and weak, and she was exhausted when she walked.
Li Chuxia held on, always vigilant, turned left and right, and suddenly saw a bamboo forest, and then went inside, it should be an excellent hiding place.
The bamboo forest was damp and muddy, making Li Chuxia's feet slip frequently. Walking and walking, he finally fell to the ground and fainted under the stumbling of a stone.
Just when Li Chuxia still had the last trace of consciousness left, he vaguely seemed to see someone walking in front of him, "Are you here to save me, or are you here to kill me?" She wondered in her heart.
Li Chuxia prayed in her heart, hoping that she could escape, but her mental and physical strength could not support her to continue to explore the truth, and finally closed her eyes and completely fainted.
The person who came looked at Li Chuxia who fell to the ground, frowned, shook his head, sighed secretly, and carried Li Chuxia on his shoulders and took him away.
On the other side, the deep courtyard of the palace.
Just after noon, Concubine Jing's guards who were responsible for taking care of Li Chuxia also woke up one after another.
When they were still about to wake up, sleepy-eyed, and a little confused, suddenly a guard with a head turned around and saw that Li Chuxia was no longer in the cage, and he was shocked and shouted: "It's not good, Li Chuxia is gone." β
Just this sound directly made the entire group of guards and maidservants fry.
"How is that possible? Isn't it a good lock? How can you run away? β
"It's all your fault, you let me sleep at ease, saying that that girl wouldn't run out, now like this, what can I do!"
There were a few sturdy men who wanted to see a woman, who was still locked in a cage, and in the end, they didn't even look at her, and let her escape. According to Concubine Jing's temper, she will definitely have to treat them for serious crimes when she comes back, how should this be good?
Li Chuxia's successful escape caused great panic to these guards and maidservants, but now the panic has no effect, and all that awaits them is punishment and condemnation.
Just when the guards were gathered in a heap, discussing what to do, whether to search for Li Chuxia now, they were like ants on a hot pot, and suddenly heard a loud sentence: "Concubine Jing has arrivedββ! β
Several people were immediately pale with fright, biting their lips tightly, and they didn't dare to say a word.
Concubine Jing originally came here to humiliate and abuse Li Chuxia again, and continued to threaten her to relieve her boredom, so she had a slight smile on her face and a little expectation.
As a result, when he got out of the sedan chair and looked up, he found that the cage was empty, and he immediately raised his eyebrows.
"What about people!" Concubine Jing said in a shrill voice that almost tore apart, as if to pierce the ears of the guards and maidservants.
The guards and maidservants didn't dare to come out, and some of the timid maids were softened by Concubine Jing's roar.
Several people lowered their heads and trembled a little, exchanging glances with each other, and no one dared to report to Concubine Jing that Li Chuxia had escaped. Although they knew that they would definitely not be able to escape this catastrophe today, no one dared to come forward to answer.
"What about you! Speak! Are they all dumb? Concubine Jing glared at them, her eyes swept over them, and the guards and maidservants felt a chill run over their heads.
"Back to Concubine Jing's words, Li Chuxia... She's too cunning, she's... She ran away. Under the repeated pressure of Concubine Jing, a guard finally stepped forward to reply, with a slight tremor in his voice.
"What? Ran away? How did you run? Are you all rubbish! Concubine Jing went crazy and grabbed those guards and maidservants, they didn't dare to hide, they didn't dare to respond, they had to be next to each other, so that Concubine Jing could relieve her anger and come.
When Concubine Jing was beating and scolding those guards and maidservants, there was a little maid who had just entered the palace, who had never seen much of the world, and had not yet gotten used to this kind of life in the palace, so she was really scared, and tears were about to pour out of her eyes.
When Concubine Jing hit in front of her, she leaned to the side slightly, afraid of being hit. just hid for a while, and immediately angered Concubine Jing, and yelled at the little maidservant: "You still dare to hide, come here, kill this slut." β
Concubine Jing said word by word, the words "cane death" were extremely cold and heavy, and her eyes were also cold and sharp.
"Concubine Jing! Don't, the slave is wrong, I don't dare anymore, spare the slave and the maid this time, Niangniang is gracious, Niangniang ......" The little maid heard Concubine Jing's words and her pupils dilated in fright, and she immediately knelt down and kowtowed vigorously, crying and begging. But here in Concubine Jing, killing a servant girl is as simple as crushing an ant, and there is nothing to pity.
The little maid's head was about to break, and in the end she was pulled down, and in broad daylight, her flesh and blood were blurred, and she died with a cane.
The rest of the guards and maidservants were so frightened that they lowered their heads and did not dare to move.
Concubine Jing eased her breath, turned around and squinted at them and threatened, "What are you doing with your heads down?" Why don't you hurry up and clean up the body, you also want to end up like her, do you? A bunch of garbage that can't do anything! No one is allowed to talk about this matter today, just throw the body in a secret place and cremate it, don't make too much noise, who dares to show their feet? It's the same fate as her! Got it? β
"Yes! Concubine Jing. When the subordinates heard this, they immediately replied resignedly, fearing that the tragedy would be their turn again, so they hurriedly stepped forward to clean up the corpse.
Concubine Jing threw off her robe and returned to the palace in a sedan chair.
Baili Yunzheng and the second prince were very unwilling after being driven away by Concubine Jing, and they were more worried about Li Chuxia's safety, so they also sent their cronies to arrange eyeliner around the palace, and reported to them at any time if there was a situation.
"Report to the general and His Highness," the arranged wire report came to them at this time, and both of them became worried, not knowing whether it was evil or auspicious: "What's the matter, is something wrong in early summer?" The second prince was a little excited, and he spoke with a little trembling.
Baili Yunzheng grabbed the second prince, glared at him and motioned for the second prince not to interrupt, frowned at the eyeliner and said, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" β
"Back to General Baili, I saw a few of Concubine Jing's subordinates dragging one person to the direction of the crematorium outside the palace, I am afraid that something happened to the eldest lady in early summer, so I hereby come to report."
This can make Baili Yunzheng and the second prince panic, they know Concubine Jing's temperament very well, she is a ruthless and stingy and ruthless woman, and it was Concubine Jing who casually tortured and killed a woman.
"Prepare the horses!"
Baili Yunzheng and the second prince were stunned, and they rushed out together without thinking about it, and the eyeliner also followed, showing them the way.
"Early summer, you must not have an accident, wait for me!" Baili Yunzheng said silently in his heart.
Even if the two of them encountered potholes along the way, they were like walking on the ground, their hearts kept lifting, their brains were blank, and they only thought about saving Li Chuxia.
Baili Yunzheng and the second prince's whip became more and more urgent, the reins in their hands became tighter and tighter, and the two came to the periphery of the crematorium one after the other.
The two commissioned the eyeliner to lead the horses, and hurried into the crematorium. When the two entered, a cremation had already begun, the flames were swaying, and the blazing fire made the surrounding air warm up by a few degrees, but it made the hearts of the two people who saw this scene suddenly cool.
"It can't be, it won't be, early summer!" The second prince shook his head in a daze now, squatted on the ground, and felt a big blow. But Baili Yunzheng still forced himself to keep his sanity, stepped forward and approached a few times, and found that the face was not early summer at all.
The big stone in Baili Yunzheng's heart fell to the ground again, turned around, pulled up the second prince who was squatting on the ground, and said with some disgust: "Get up!" It's not early summer at all, look! β
The second prince seemed to be half awakened, and immediately noticed this person's face, fortunately it was not early summer, and he took a long breath: "This person looks so familiar, by the way, she seems to be a little maid of Concubine Jing, I just met it two days ago, and it seems to be a newcomer, so I have a little impression." β
Baili Yunzheng snorted coldly, glanced at the second prince with some irony, and thought of why Concubine Jing would execute a little maid for no reason? Could it have something to do with the early summer? A heart was raised again, and he turned to the second prince and said, "Let's go, let's go find Concubine Jing." The second prince just came out of the fright, and he followed what Baili Yunzheng said.
The two entered the palace to meet Concubine Jing, and when Concubine Jing heard the news, she squinted her eyes, a trace of fierceness flashed in her eyes, and she secretly screamed in her heart. She fought with momentum, and now that she didn't have Li Chuxia's bargaining chip, she had to go out and deal with the two.
"Concubine Jing, where are the people in early summer now, we are a little worried, can you let us see it now?" Baili Yunzheng stared directly at Concubine Jing's eyes and said.
Concubine Jing panicked for a while, but she still pretended to be fine, and replied, "Why do you ask me to let people come to see me?" You obviously just got driven away by me, why did you come back, didn't you want Li Chuxia to live? β
"We just want to see her once and make sure she's safe. Concubine Jing doesn't even allow this? β
"You! β¦β¦β
