Chapter 476: Meet and punch
Shen Tong! Mei Shengxue was furious.
Shen Tong ignored her, opened the window and jumped out.
Mei Shengxue stomped her feet hard, eager to crush Shen Tong and stomp on it, but she thought of Shen Tong's words again, it seems that Shen Tong really didn't come to kill the Empress Dowager when she entered the palace.
Wasn't Shen Tong sent by King Qin?
Thinking of this, Mei Shengxue felt a little better in her heart.
She never had the idea of taking refuge in King Qin, but she followed Meng Meiren from Xi'an to the palace, and once she had an accident in the palace, King Qin was the culprit, so in the past two or three years, she was happy to accept King Qin's support.
Although she was disdainful of King Qin, she still felt very angry when she saw Shen Tong also entering the palace, once King Qin used Shen Tong instead of her, then her efforts in the past few years would be in vain.
If she could do it, then she would have killed Shen Tong just now, and she wouldn't want to cooperate with Shen Tong at all.
But for Shen Tong, Mei Shengxue can't hit her with one hit, a person like Shen Tong can't kill her in one move, so it will be difficult to kill her again, and maybe she will be killed back.
Therefore, she did not make a move, but offered to cooperate with Shen Tong.
Shen Tong still refused.
Mei Shengxue suddenly realized one thing, no matter what Shen Tong's real purpose of entering the palace was, now, no, it was just these two days, she had to make a move against the Empress Dowager.
Otherwise, the great credit for the assassination of the Empress Dowager will fall to someone else.
Even if this person is not Shen Tong, it will not be her Mei Shengxue.
The more Mei Shengxue thought about it, the more she felt that she couldn't wait any longer, she leaned over and took out something in the kang hole, and then tiptoed out.
......
Shen Tong walked out of the small courtyard where Princess An lived, and as soon as he walked out of the green bamboo road, he saw a team of guards coming over.
Shen Tong hid her figure, and waited until the team of guards walked over, she continued to walk forward, and after walking for a while, she came to the place where she saw Princess An, which should be the queen mother's bedroom.
Walking further, Shen Tong was discouraged.
There was no shelter in front of it, it was bare, there were no trees, no flowers, not even stone lamps, only two lamps with thick bowls, and on each pole hung two Western glass-covered air dead wind lanterns, which illuminated the open space as bright as day.
Shen Tong hid behind a tree, wondering if he would rush over like this.
At this moment, another group of guards approached, and their heavy leather boots stepped on the smooth and flat ground, and there was no sound at all.
And the team of guards I had just met outside the Cuizhu Sandwich Road were walking with sounds, neat steps, and tiger and tiger wind.
Shen Tong immediately understood, Chaoyang Palace takes the Empress Dowager's bedroom as the center point, and there are at least three defenses outward, what she encountered outside the Cuizhu Sandwich Road should be the second one, and there will be at least one defense outside of this, and now she sees that these guards should be the third way, their martial arts are obviously much higher than the second one, but they are not the final one, the final one is next to the Empress Dowager, and their martial arts are the highest.
Shen Tong sighed secretly, she knew that she would enter the palace when she came to the capital, and when she was in Xi'an, she would ask Xiao Ren to inquire about King Qin.
Don't look at King Qin in Xi'an, he knows everything in the palace.
But now far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and now Shen Tong is a blind man touching an elephant, even guessing.
She was worrying about how to enter the Empress Dowager's dormitory, when suddenly, something fell on top of her head.
Shen Tong frowned, reached out and touched it, it turned out to be a feather.
She looked up, and a night bird was flying off into the distance.
Shen Tong was very confident in her stealth skills, she didn't make a sound, and the team of guards just now was even quieter, the night bird threw into the forest, and if it wasn't frightened, it wouldn't suddenly fly.
Shen Tong immediately became alert, she listened intently, and then jumped towards the tree.
Through the gap in the branches, Shen Tong saw that the treetops on the opposite side were shaking slightly.
No wind tonight.
There's someone in that tree.
Shen Tong was about to get off the tree, but saw another team of guards coming over, it was the same group of people just now, silent.
Shen Tong didn't dare to act rashly, her eyes stared at the opposite branch without blinking, thanks to those few dead wind lanterns, otherwise it would be difficult for her to see the slight shaking of the opposite branch only by moonlight.
Shen Tong's eyes swept towards the team of guards, and suddenly, they walked over to this side, Shen Tong became inexplicably nervous, she stared at the opposite branch tightly, completely ignoring whether the tree she was on was also shaking.
The team of guards was getting closer and closer, Shen Tong held her breath, and her palms were already sweating.
"Meow", with a cat's meow, a dark shadow flew down the trunk of the tree and ran towards the dormitory.
As it ran past the guards, the cat stopped and glared at the guards in protest.
The head guard reached out and picked it up, and the cat did not resist, apparently knowing it.
The head guard handed the cat to another guard standing behind him, and said, "You go and send it back, the palace maid was still looking for it just now." ”
The guards took the cat and turned to walk towards the dormitory, while the rest of the guards continued their patrol and did not look at the tree again.
Could it be that this cat just scared the night birds away?
Shen Tong looked at the tree opposite again, the branches moved again, she rubbed her eyes, yes, it was still moving.
There was someone in the tree, and the cat was just that person using it as cover.
Shen Tong was overjoyed.
At this time, Mei Shengxue should be scolding the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the Shen family in the house, the person on the tree will not be Mei Shengxue, unless there is a fourth outsider in this palace, otherwise this person is eight or nine out of ten is Yun Qi!
Yun Qi was born in the grassland, and her fame was also in the grassland, she grew up on horseback, even if she later got the true legend of the master and practiced martial arts, but she was not good at light skills.
Therefore, she hid in the trees, which not only alarmed the birds, but also the patrolling guards.
Shen Tong became more and more sure that the person facing him was Yun Qi.
Seeing the team of guards disappear on the other side just now, Shen Tong knew that they would soon turn back again, this is a circle.
She had to see Yun Qi before they turned back.
She didn't stop, gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and jumped over to the tree opposite.
The two trees are two zhang apart, Shen Tong is not sure that he can jump over, anyway, this is flat land, not a cliff, it is a big deal to fall, and then jump again.
Unexpectedly, this time, she actually succeeded, and the moment she grabbed the opposite branch, a fist hit her head-on.
This leap just now has exceeded Shen Tong's usual ability, she has not yet grown up, her strength is limited, and she jumped with a breath of true qi, and at this time, this breath has been exhausted, and the punch came, Shen Tong turned sideways to avoid it, but her hand was loose, and her body fell down!
