Chapter 597: The Secret Passage in the Palace

At this moment, it was exciting.

Wen Ling nervously grabbed Gu Xun's clothes, his little head couldn't help but look behind him, watching the Praetorian Guards catch up one by one, his mood fluttered terribly, this feeling was like when he was a child, following Wei Zhen and them, sneaking out of class to do bad things, the master found that they were gone, and panicked and asked the guards to come to them.

Gu Xun is familiar with the palace.

The whole person held Wen Ling in his arms and dodged into the rockery.

In the dark night, the sound of heavy breathing was staggered, and the figure was hidden behind the stone, Gu Xun pressed Wen Ling behind the stone to prevent her from revealing anything.

Wen Ling leaned nervously at Gu Xun, and the guards came and went, and their steps were very tight.

It was as if it was right behind him.

"Did you find it?"

"Commander-in-chief, the person is gone!"

"How can you not see it, the palace is so big, and there are layers of guards guarding the palace walls, if you escape from the palace and go outside, there must be movement. You guys search me carefully! The guard's voice was cold, he looked at the dark area around him, and finally looked at the area where Gu Xun and Wen Ling were hiding, and pointed, "You guys, go there!" ”

"Yes!"

The guards responded and walked towards the place where Gu Xun and Wen Ling were hiding.

Gu Xun's eyes sank, looked at the surrounding environment, and raised his hand to break a stone from the rockery.

Wen Ling's back was against the rockery, and he felt a little pain, so he couldn't help but reach out and pick it.

Gu Xun directly threw the stone to the other side.

Bang Bang –

"Who!" I almost noticed that the guards of the two immediately turned their heads, and sure enough, they were attracted by Shi Zi'er.

Suddenly surrounded by footsteps, the two were able to escape.

Wen Ling secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his fingers tugged at the rockery.

Gu Xun hugged Wen Ling's waist and raised it slightly, ready to take a detour from the other side, who would have thought that Wen Ling's hand touched a piece on the rockery, and suddenly heard a rumbling sound behind him, as if something had been opened, Wen Ling felt that there was a depression behind him, but fortunately, Gu Xun lifted it vigorously, so he didn't lean on.

"Where!" The guard, who was attracted by Shi Zi'er's attention, turned his head again in an instant.

Gu Xun saw it clearly, but reacted extremely quickly and hugged Wen Ling and hid to the side.

"This! There's a secret passage here! They will enter through secret passages. Then he heard the torch of the guard, and saw the secret passage in the garden, and affirmed it directly.

At this point, Gu Xun and Wen Ling were able to find a chance to get out and take the opportunity to return to Yongning Palace.

Yongning Palace has Wen Ling's orders, no one dares to come, only Xianqin seems to have heard something and is a little uneasy, so take a look outside.

When I turned my head, I saw Wen Ling and Gu Xun falling off the wall in black and white.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang!" String Lyre's eyes widened.

"Shh Wen Ling silenced the strings, and the strings quickly covered her mouth.

The two hurried back to their rooms.

Gu Xun also put the mask back on very quickly, Wen Ling also scattered his hair, and loosened his clothes for Gu Xun.

"How can there be a secret passage in the palace?" Wen Ling couldn't help but ask.

She inadvertently opened a secret passage, but because there was a bit of movement in the middle of the night, hiding in a secret passage where she didn't know the situation was tantamount to killing herself.

"I don't know." Gu Xun has been in the palace for many years, and it is the first time that he knows that there is a secret passage in the imperial garden.

As soon as he finished it, there was a commotion outside.

"Please also inform the emperor and the queen that this assassin has appeared in the palace!" There was some urgency outside.

Wen Ling went to mess up the bed a little, and then pressed it again, waiting for the strings to knock on the door.

Gu Xun, who had put on his mask, put on his coat, "What happened?" ”

The guards behind Xianqin knelt forward, "Your Majesty, the little eunuch guarding the Taihe Palace found that there were assassins in the palace when he added candles, and his subordinates sent people to track them down, but they didn't want to have a secret passage in the imperial garden, but they checked the footprints and found that the assassin did not enter the secret passage, and followed the assassin's footprints, but came to Yongning Palace." ”

Footprints......

Speaking of this, Wen Ling involuntarily straightened out her skirt and covered her shoes.

The guard kept his head down, but he also found the mud on the ground, and couldn't help but look along the mud.

Oh......

Under the emperor, how can there be mud footprints.

It was really in a hurry that everything came, Gu Xun was in a hurry to put on a mask, and Wen Ling was also busy with wide clothes, and they forgot the most important shoe prints.

The guard's hand stiffened for a moment.

What can Taihe Palace have?

There are only a few spirit cards in Taihe Palace, how could an assassin go to Taihe Palace.

For a while, the guards also realized something, and they were a little embarrassed.

Gu Xun coughed slightly, "Then I think the assassin escaped along the secret passage......"

"That's what the emperor said!" The guards hurriedly chimed in.

"What did you find in the secret passage?"

"Someone has been sent in to investigate." The guard said, "My subordinates took a look, the secret passage is not shallow, and I am afraid that it will take some time to finish exploring." ”

"What happened tonight is only that an assassin has broken in, but he has escaped. Investigate the secret passage secretly, don't make a public announcement, and let Huo Wei come to see me alone tomorrow. Gu Xun commanded coldly.

With just this sentence, the guards already understood, "The subordinates obey the order." ”

"Investigate the Assassin's escape." Gu Xun lost another sentence.

The leader of the guards nodded and stepped back.

The Praetorian Guard is managed by Huo Wei, Gu Xun is trustworthy, and now I have mentioned a few words, the guard is also smart.

After the guards retreated, Xianqin looked at Wen Ling, who was wiping sweat on the side, and said with a slight worry, "The emperor and the mother are going out, why don't you tell the slave and maid, if there is any accident, the slave and maid can also respond." ”

Gu Xun and Wen Ling glanced at it, and both of them had a smile in their eyes for the rest of their lives.

They went out on a whim, and how to inform them in advance.

The current situation is also unexpected.

It's just fortunate that except for the little eunuch in Taihe Palace who treats them as "dirty things", the others are all Praetorian Guards.

There are rules in the palace, except for the eunuchs who fight the watch, only the Praetorian Guards can patrol the palace.

This matter has commanded the chief of the guard, and tomorrow it will be a different story.

"Auntie, don't worry, it's not a big deal." Wen Ling slapped his hand on the stringed piano, "Auntie, go to bed early, there will be rumors in the palace tomorrow." ”

Xianqin had to nod.

Who would have thought that in this harem, the emperor and queen would go out to blow the wind and be regarded as assassins!

The string qin retreated, and Wen Ling breathed a sigh of relief, "It's so dangerous!" ”

"But...... It's exciting, isn't it? A low chuckle came from behind him.

Wen Ling turned around, Gu Xun was still wearing Gu Rin's human skin mask, but he took off the silver mask on the outside, his eyes were crooked, and the black Gu veins on his face were not hideous at all because of these smiling eyes.

Wen Ling couldn't help but purse his lips and smile, and looked down at the dirty tips of his shoes, "How could you think of taking me to Taihe Palace." ”

Where is there a third watch in the middle of the night to go to the ancestral hall.

"I ......" Gu Xun thought back, and also felt that he was also confused, how could he think of taking her to the ancestral hall.

It's just that I thought about it at the time, so I brought it, but I didn't think about why.

"Alright, it's not early, go to sleep!" Wen Ling grinned, looked at the bed, and paused, "You ...... tonight"

"I ...... I slept ......."

"Let's sleep together!"

Before Gu Xun finished speaking, he listened to Wen Ling say directly.

Please enter the urn Wenling has heard, and it is the first time to invite you to stay with Wenling, of course, she did not invite Gu Xun, "That, we will sleep like that, the bed is so big, lie down to you!" Before, I also slept with my sister! ”

Wen Ling hurriedly gestured, turned around and looked, there was only a thin quilt on the bed.

But the good thing is that it's summer.

“…… It's ......" Gu Xun felt that his mouth was a little dry.

Seeing that Wen Ling took off his shoes and went to the couch to vacate a large space, Gu Xun also sat down.

The two of them were lying on the bed, the room was still bright, no one spoke first, just looked at the top of the tent, and it took a while for Wen Ling to react, "That...... Didn't turn off the lights......"

"Oh......" Gu Xun got up and looked at the candle flame, and a palm wind passed by, and the room was dark.

Gu Xun didn't dare to sleep.

Although it was quiet, he could hear Wen Ling's breathing.

As on the day of the ceremony, although the two did not share the same bed, they were in the same room.

Gu Xun was used to being alert, and he could tell from Wen Ling's breathing whether Wen Ling was really asleep.

But on the contrary, Wenling is different.

She was nervous.

The nervous heartbeat was fast at first.

But probably because the night was too heavy, and Gu Xun didn't move at all, Wen Ling couldn't help but close his eyes, as if waiting for something.

Wait until Wen Ling falls asleep.

Feeling that Wen Ling was asleep, Gu Xun also relaxed slightly in his heart and fell asleep.

Truth be told, it's a bit hot in the summer.

Even if the two are not together, they can feel the heat on each other's bodies just by getting closer.

This fell asleep, no one approached anyone, but when he felt the other party's breathing, Wen Ling frowned in his sleep, turned his head and rolled inside. A person who sleeps for a long time has some bad habits, Gu Xun is the same, although Gu Xun's sleeping posture is not too bad, but it is not good, although this bed is big, but Gu Xun is burly and occupies a lot of land.

He was lying on the edge of the bed, and when he moved it out, it was the edge of the hard bed, and he couldn't help but move it back.

Before he could move comfortably, something was pressed against his waist.

Gu Xun opened his eyes suddenly, his mind was still confused, and before he could react, the thing kicked hard.

Gu Xun got up and reached out to touch it.

But it was Wen Ling who tilted his body, leaned his head against the corner of the wall, and his feet were towards the corner of Gu Xun.

Feeling the heat on his body, he kicked it with some disgust.

Gu Xun didn't move.

Wen Ling kicked again.

Gu Xun couldn't see Wen Ling's face, but the appearance of kicking and not moving was a little funny.

Except for when he was a child, with his royal brother, he hasn't had more than one person in his bed for a long time.

Wen Ling pedaled twice and found that he couldn't kick it, so he retracted his feet again.

The paw scratched at his face, and there was a faint smacking of his lips.

Gu Xun sat up and leaned on the bed.

There were no candles in the house.

But there are palace lamps outside.

A faint light came in.

Gu Xun's eyes were excellent, and he could barely see what kind of posture Wen Ling was in now.

I couldn't help but smile on my face, just watched, watched......
