After the ecstasy, I realized that something was wrong.

Or rather, an unbearable burning pain in his throat was a reminder that something was wrong.

Su Yao reached out to touch his throat, opened his mouth, and was shocked to find that he couldn't make a sound.

What's going on?

Su Yao's face changed suddenly, and his hoarse voice fell into his ears, like a thunderbolt falling on a sunny day.

After a long time, he rushed to the door and pounded it hard.

The sound of slamming the door was heard, but the guards didn't even lift their eyelids.

The sound of pounding on the door gradually faded.

Inside the door, Su Yao was already pale and sweating profusely, like a fish jumping onto the shore and dying, and even the sound of violent breathing was hoarse and unpleasant, making people desperate.

At this time, Governor Luo was reading a book in the study.

It is said to be reading a book, but it is just opening the book and waiting for that moment to come.

A small servant got permission and walked in gently: "Metropolitan Governor, Su Xiushu just woke up and smashed the door for a long time. ”

"Let him go." At the mention of Su Yao, Governor Luo's calm face turned cold.

I really thought that taking the top prize was Wenqu Xing's descent to earth, since he had a mouth that couldn't speak, then don't speak.

As for whether the poisoned and dumb Su Zhuangyuan would write down the events of the past two days by hand, Governor Luo didn't care at all.

has reached the point of falling out with the emperor, do you still need to care about such a small thing as a sesame seed?

The dumb kid just didn't want him to talk anymore.

Governor Luo sent the little servant to retreat and continued to flip through the book for a while.

On a warm spring day, a white dove suddenly flew in from the open window.

The dove landed on the wide bookcase and cooed at Governor Luo.

Governor Luo spread his hands to the pigeons.

The pigeon tilted its head to look at Governor Luo, and jumped into his palm with its wings outstretched.

Governor Locke gently straightened the pigeon's feathers and carefully removed the letter tied to its leg.

A narrow strip of paper with only two words on it: The wind rises.

Governor Luo crumpled the note and let go of the pigeon.

A short time later, a gray dove flew in, and the letter it brought with it had the same two words written on it.

The carrier pigeon transmits the message secretly and conveniently, but everything is risky, and such a critical message naturally cannot be carried out with just one pigeon.

Taking off his coat to reveal the light armor inside, Governor Luo pressed the scabbard and strode out.

The sky had completely darkened, and it was cloudy, with no stars or moon in sight.

The whole Luo Mansion is lit up everywhere, just like every ordinary night.

Unlike most ordinary people who go to bed early as soon as it gets dark in order to save lamp oil, the rich and noble families want to be bright and bright.

People from all the courtyards quietly gathered in one place.

Governor Luo swept over the familiar faces and said in a deep voice, "Let's go." ”

Closely following behind Luo Dadu Governor were the four Luo Sheng sisters.

Obviously walking in a familiar home, in this tense and silent atmosphere, Luo Yue had a feeling of getting lost.

Where is Father going to take them?

They are not going in the direction of the gate now......

Luo Yue was full of doubts, and couldn't help but want to ask Luo Sheng, who was walking in front, but when he saw the other party's calm face, he swallowed the words when he came to his mouth.

There's nothing to be afraid of, just like the third sister said during the day, their family is together.

The little girl's eyes brightened, and she quickened her pace.

Everyone followed Governor Luo into a storeroom.

The warehouse was large, full of objects, perhaps too long and unopened, with a faint musty smell wafting.

At the end, one of his henchmen stepped forward and pressed the mechanism, and together with another of his men, pushed open the door that was integrated into the wall.

Inside the door is darkness with no end in sight.

Two Jinlin guards walked in front with lanterns, illuminating a certain range, and everyone saw that this was a dark passage.

The dark passage allowed the two of them to walk side by side, and as everyone entered in turn, there was a long line.

Suddenly, he screamed, and Luo Dadu was so angry that he scolded: "Sixth, what is your ghost name?" ”

Soon came the aggrieved voice of the sixth aunt: "Master, it's not me." ”

Governor Luo frowned.

Sounds strange to the ear, which stupid woman is it?

At this time, a timid voice sounded: "Master, I accidentally tripped up." ”

Governor Luo still didn't hear which one, and said with a calm face: "You all pay attention, wait until you get outside to make a noise, and see if I don't skin you." ”

"Father, where is the exit of this secret passage?"

As soon as he heard Luo Sheng ask, Luo Dadudu's tone immediately softened: "Near the West City Gate." ”

Hearing that it was the West City Gate, Luo Sheng was surprised.

Even if the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion is in the West City, which is closest to the West City Gate, it is only relative. A dark passage from Luofu to the vicinity of the West City Gate is difficult to estimate.

Luo Sheng was not the only one who was surprised.

Listening to the low gasp, Governor Luo smiled to himself.

It was not easy to make such a secret passage, and he had been preparing for it since more than ten years ago. To be precise, after leading the troops to besiege the Zhennan Palace.

The blood flowing all over the ground and the stacks of corpses were in stark contrast to the palatial palace, and they also left him with indelible memories and warnings.

Doing the errand of walking on the tip of the knife, he didn't want to one day his home would become like the Zhennan Palace, and the people he loved died tragically under the knife.

Governor Luo turned his head and glanced at the girl walking beside him.

Especially Sheng'er, he must protect her.

Governor Luo's thoughts flew back to that day fourteen years ago.

The son that his wife had worked so hard to give birth to died because he was weak in the womb and died in a few days, and his wife cried all day long.

He was a man and could not cry, he could only watch her cry.

It didn't take long for his wife to run out of oil and run out of lights.

At that time, his wife couldn't cry anymore, so she took his finger and pointed at the three-year-old Sheng'er, and shouted hoarsely: "Master, we must grow up with our Sheng'er-"

With the abrupt end of the voice, it was the pale and cold hand that fell.

In less than a month, he lost his son and wife successively, as if it was retribution for leading his troops to besiege and kill hundreds of people in Zhennan Wangfu.

The silent procession walked in the darkness for an unknown amount of time, and finally stopped.

The door where the mechanism was hidden opened and the exit was narrower enough to allow only one person to pass through.

Governor Luo went out first, and then turned around to pull Luo Sheng.

Luo Sheng had crawled out neatly and looked around.

She was surprised that there were lights in the courtyard, which made the lights in the hands of the two Jinlinwei no longer eye-catching.

"I've seen the Grand Governor."

Luo Sheng looked at the two people who saluted Luo Dadu, this is a middle-aged couple, looking like ordinary people.

But now, of course, she understands that the two of them are living here disguised as ordinary people, for this day.

Governor Luo bowed slightly, waited for everyone to crawl out of the dark passage, counted the number of people and ordered: "Just wait here, don't make a sound, and waiting for a while to get out of the city gate is the biggest difficulty." ”
