Chapter Twenty-Six: The Man Goes to the Empty House

Speaking of Mitsubishi Town, it was past noon when Yaxiang woke up, and although the blunt trauma to the back of her neck was not fatal, it was not light. She had to breathe and recuperate. summoned Vice General Zhu to explain the arrest of Lu Fuling, and instructed him to urgently report the matter to the little emperor.

Ya Xiang sat in the room staring at the tea in the cup for a long time, as if she had made up her mind, and said to herself: "Three days, the most." You've got to catch up. ”

Three days passed quickly, and Ya Xiang became more and more anxious on the one hand to suppress the news of Lu Lingling's disappearance to prevent the riot. At noon on the fourth day, the sky was overcast, and soon snowflakes began to fall. Yaxiang, who was sitting in the front hall waiting for news, couldn't bear it anymore, and dropped her cup and rushed straight into the snow.

That night, the Rongcheng City Lord's Mansion.

A group of black-clothed people sneaked into the courtyard where Lu Fuling was being held in the fresh snow, and the leader looked at the dancing candle flame printed on the window lattice, gestured, and then dispersed in a well-trained manner, approaching in unison.

As they got closer and closer to the door, the leader was the first to notice that something was wrong—it was too quiet, except for the sound of the wind accompanied by falling snow, there seemed to be only the deliberately suppressed breathing of a few of them in the entire courtyard. Glancing at the person behind him, the leader kicked in the door directly, and sure enough, the room was empty. The lonely lamp is gone, and it has been a long time since I thought about it.

"Chase!" Ordered one of his subordinates to go and report, and the leader quickly disappeared into the wind and snow with the rest of his troops, targeting the southeast city gate.

There is an abandoned carriage and horse post outside Rongcheng South Street, which was one of the hubs for trade with the Chajin Kingdom in the early years, but due to the opening of the trade route in the lower reaches of the Qingong River, it was gradually abandoned. Lu Fuling had left the City Lord's Mansion earlier and had come all the way here. She expected the killer to block the southeast gate, which was the closest way back to Mitsubishi Town.

It's a pity that what the people of Northern Qi don't know is that although this carriage and horse post is deserted, it has become the base camp of Xiuhetang in Rongcheng because of its excellent geographical location. When the team of killers found out that the house was empty, Lu Lingling was already sitting in the basement drinking hot soup here.

Lu Lingling was stunned when she drank it, her mind was full of the words of the white divine doctor who had just given her pulse, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad for a while.

"Gong ...... Girl, "The guy who used to work in the capital couldn't get used to the fact that his handsome son had turned into a concubine, and his expression was a little distorted, "The secret passage is ready, let's send you out of the city." ”

"Hmm." Lu Fuling retracted her thoughts, nodded at him, and then lifted her skirt and followed him down.

The secret passage here was built when Xiuhetang first arrived in Rongcheng, and there were several entrances and exits in the city, but the only exit outside the city was located in the shade of the mountain five miles away in the southeast, which was extremely hidden. Lu Fuling walked with her head down all the way, and I don't know how long it took for a snowflake to fall in front of her before she woke up like a dream, this is coming out.

Someone had already prepared a car waiting here, and Lu Fuling, who was still worried about riding a horse, breathed a sigh of relief, nodded to the guys next to him and smiled, and got into the carriage.

Recently, I've always felt sleepy, and I've developed a habit of falling asleep as soon as I get in the carriage. Lu Fuling was thinking about what she had overheard before, and she sank into the sweet country.

The smell of blood.

Lu Lingling was awakened by the pungent smell of blood, and the carriage stopped at some point, and there was an eerie silence outside. Of course, Lu Fuling was not stupid enough to think that she had arrived at her destination, so she clenched the short dagger in her sleeve and gently opened the sedan curtain.
