Chapter 416: Escape from Death
Lan Jing was relieved that there was something going on, and her feet were getting faster and faster. Su Mei has always been sensitive to the three words of Jiaofang Palace, for so many years, she has been forcing herself to treat Jiaofang Hall as an ordinary palace, why listen to that person's words today, it seems that there is something wrong with this Jiaofang Palace?
The two of them were thinking about their own thoughts, and they hurried back, and it took less than a cup of tea to return to the Xuanming Palace. The quiet Xuanming Hall didn't even light the lights, which made Lan Jing'an feel bad.
Su Mei saw that there was no palace attendant guarding the palace, so she was also angry. She just waited for Si Zhu to come back from Nanyuan, talk about her well, and then check who should be on duty at this hour. Su Mei secretly decided that this kind of behavior of not even caring about serious errands for the sake of amusement in the garden must be severely punished once, so that the palace people can learn a lesson.
The two walked to the front of the hall, and Su Mei pushed open the door of the temple and went to light the lamp first. She entered with her front foot, and Lan Jing'an heard a soft cry accompanied by a "plop" movement on her back foot. Lan Jing'an was worried that Su Mei had fallen because of the darkness in the hall, so he hurried into the hall. Before she could ask Su Mei how she was, a gust of wind had already hit her from behind the temple gate.
said that it was too late, and Lan Jing'an immediately raised his hand to pull out the hairpin. But as soon as she raised her hand, before she could touch the end of her hair, a person had already taken a cold object from behind her back and put it against her throat. All she could hear was the man's whispered warning: "If you don't want to die, don't move!" But in an instant, a large, equally cold hand had climbed up to her face and covered her mouth and nose.
Lan Jing'an's eyes widened in disbelief as soon as he heard the man's voice. Because his mouth and nose were covered and he couldn't make a sound, Lan Jing'an had to stretch out his hand that was about to pull the hairpin back and touch the man's face with his backhand. The man obviously didn't expect the person in front of him to be so bold, and he was still struggling, and he was about to press down the dagger, when he suddenly froze. He immediately put the knife edge outward, and spit out two words suspiciously: "Chang'an? ”
Lan Jing'an's heart hurt suddenly, his body shrank suddenly, and tears involuntarily gathered in his eyes. She endured the pain and was about to nod, but suddenly felt the pressure on her body subside. She didn't bother to speak, quietly wiped her eyes, gasped for a few breaths, and then turned around.
The moonlight like water shone in along the temple gate, but the person in front of Lan Jing'an was gathered in the shadow behind the temple gate, half clear and half ambiguous, making people unable to see it really. Lan Jing'an could only see the man's stupidly outstretched hand falling into the moonlight, as white and beautiful as the moonlight tonight. It's just that his movements are a little funny, as if he wants to touch her face, but he stiffens there, motionless.
Lan Jing'an had mixed feelings, but his first reaction was to close the door of the temple and drop the latch. The hall was shrouded in darkness again, and Lan Jing'an spoke up: "Xie Weining, why are you here?" ”
Xie Weining's surging heart finally settled down a little, he withdrew his hand, and said coldly: "Isn't it all thanks to your good brother Qingyun?" It seems that he has not only played a trick on me, but also on you. Xie Weining asked again: "Isn't this Xiao Qingyun's dormitory?" What are you doing here? ”
Lan Jing'an was even more surprised, and had the heart to ask more, but remembered something more important: "What about Su Mei?" What did you do with her? ”
Another voice sounded in the darkness: "She's fine, she's just fainting." Lan Jing'an heard the voice and continued to ask Xie Weining: "How many other ambushes are there in this hall besides you and Yin Quan?" ”
Xie Weining replied tiredly: "Just the two of us." Lan Jing was relieved, and said to Xie Weining gently: "I'll go and light the lights first, and then you tell me what happened." ”
Just as Lan Jing'an had an extraordinary trust in Xie Weining, Xie Weining also took off his full guard from the moment Lan Jing'an appeared. He had been in the dark for a while, and he was obviously more accustomed to the darkness in the temple than Lan Jing'an, who had just entered the temple. He led Lan Jing'an to the lamp tree in front and helped Lan Jing'an light the lamp together.
The sudden appearance of light made the three people in the hall a little uncomfortable, especially Xie Weining and Yin Quan, who squinted for a while before they could fully adapt. And taking advantage of this effort, Lan Jing'an had already seen the situation in the hall clearly. In addition to Su Mei, who was lying prone next to the lamp tree, she also saw Si Zhu, Shandan, and Camellia lying in the corner of the main hall.
Yin Quan saw her eyes fall on several people on the ground, and explained to her: "None of them are dead." It just made me faint. Lan Jing'an secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly picked up some cold water from the bath room, which woke up Su Mei. Su Mei opened her eyes and was about to scream, but found that her mouth was covered, and Lan Jing'an in front of her shook her head gently.
Su Mei quickly calmed down, and Lan Jing'an dared to withdraw her hand and whispered to her, "Something is not quite right tonight." I have something to do here, so you can take Sizhu, Shandan, and Camellia back to their residences, pour them some wine, and then use some "medicine" to help them sleep. If someone comes after a while, they will say that I am changing my clothes, and no one will be allowed to enter the temple without my command. ”
Pang Sumei listened to Lan Jing'an's instructions, and looked at the two silent men in the hall in disbelief, and nodded for a while. Lan Jing'an crossed Xie Weining and instructed Yin Quan directly: "You go and help Su Mei take a hand, and then come back after all three of them are settled." Yin Quan turned his head to look at Xie Weining, and when he saw Xie Weining bowing slightly, Yin Quan quickly walked to the corner, picked up Shandan and walked out. Su Mei took a few quick steps to show him the way.
Lan Jing'an, no matter how busy the two of them were, led Xie Weining to a corner to avoid the light, and then asked him out loud: "What happened?" Why did you come to Yonghua? How did you get into Xingle Palace? ”
Xie Weining had already carefully observed the entire hall at this time, and although he couldn't see the inner hall inside the curtain, he could also understand the general situation. His heart was filled with indescribable soreness. Regardless of the pain in his heart, Xie Weining seized the time to pick up the important ones and explain to Lan Jing'an: "Xiao Qingyun lured me to Yonghua City with your safety as bait, he should have formed an alliance with Xie Chengyi and Xie Manhua and did this killing tonight, but unfortunately let me escape at the last moment." ”
Lan Jing suddenly tightened in his heart: "You came from the Jiaofang Palace?" ”
Xie Weining's face became even more ugly: "What? Do you know his arrangement? ”
Lan Jing'an's nails were embedded in the palms of his hands: "I don't know." It's just that today there are people who are trying to lead me there. ”
Xie Weining smiled after hearing this: "Now my heart is balanced." Speaking of which, in his heart, you are never the most important thing. ”
Now the person who is overpowered by the dark clouds has become Lan Jing'an. She thought back to her previous abnormality, Brother Qingyun was very powerful, but what did he do when he sent someone to lead him to Jiaofang Palace? Do you have to "force" yourself to witness Xie Weining being killed? Lan Jing'an thought of Xie Manhua's name again, and gritted her teeth with hatred, just wanting to cut her hypocritical beauty skin immediately.
However, when Lan Jing'an calmed down, the words he asked became: "What arrangements do you have in the palace?" ”
Xie Weining sighed and laughed at himself: "What's the arrangement?" I've fallen into his trap, and I've done a lot of work with my subordinates? It is estimated that he would have sent people to annihilate them a long time ago. Don't mention it. ”
Lan Jing was shocked: "You and Yin Quan escaped alone?" Is the Jiaofang Palace starting to round up? As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately denied herself: "No, it's not right. If you had escaped from the siege of the Jiaofang Palace, you would not have been so quiet along the way, and the time would not have been right. ”
Xie Weining looked at her appreciatively: "You are as smart as ever." After realizing that something was wrong, I didn't approach the Jiaofang Hall at all. After learning where Xiao Qingyun's dormitory was from that, I went straight here. ”
