Chapter 285: Running from the Great Crisis
Fu Mingyue waited until it was almost dawn before she fell asleep, Bai Junzhuo lit the incense while she was asleep, she wouldn't wake up until noon.
After arranging everything, Bai Junzhuo quietly slipped out of the dormitory. The palace of the Nanban King is not big, and the last time I came, I walked through it, and now I can basically figure out the route.
It was impossible for her to go out of the palace gate, so she walked in front of the guards openly, went around to the back garden, and walked straight towards the high palace wall.
Bai Junzhuo ran to the root of the wall, the wall of this Nanban Palace was no less than the palace of the Li Kingdom, it was twice as tall as her height. There was another tree next to the wall, Bai Junzhuo took a look, only by climbing the tree first, could he jump on the wall, and then escape.
She hugged the trunk and began to climb the tree, but it was really not something she was good at, and she couldn't reach the wall after climbing for a long time. She couldn't help but think of the night spy with Yin Xun before, as long as he held her, he could fly around on the roof.
Whew, it's hard to be single.
Just as she sighed, she suddenly heard someone behind her: "Ninth Princess, please come down." ”
Bai Junzhuo was startled by this sound, let go of his hand, screamed, and fell from the tree. She touched her sore buttocks, and looked back to see the four guards who had come with her.
The four of them said together: "Please go back to the Ninth Princess!" ”
Bai Junzhuo frowned, and said to them in a cold voice: "Your Majesty sent you here to protect the queen mother, what are you doing with me?" ”
One of them replied, "Your Majesty has sent us to spy on the Nine Princesses, and the Queen Mother will not be in danger." ”
Bai Junzhuo glanced at them fiercely, this Yin Mu was really a new scumbag.
"Please don't have any thoughts of running away, because we will keep an eye on the Nine Princesses, and we will report to Your Majesty every move of the Nine Princesses, and you have no chance to escape." Another guard said to Bai Junzhuo seriously.
Bai Junzhuo squinted his eyes, this Yin Mu was really well-intentioned to her.
However, the four guards wanted to stop her, and Yin Mu couldn't help but underestimate her too much. Quietly, she inserted her hand into her small backpack, pulled out a jar of self-defense medicine, and pulled it out violently, about to throw it at the four guards.
saw that one of the guards closest to her suddenly stretched out his hand to clasp Bai Junzhuo's arm, and with a hard grip, the small jar in Bai Junzhuo's hand fell by itself.
She frowned in pain, and the guard who took her medicine hurriedly knelt down and said, "If you have no choice but to be disrespectful to the Ninth Princess, please forgive the Ninth Princess!" ”
Bai Junzhuo looked at these four people helplessly, they should all be first-class masters, and he naturally couldn't deal with them like ordinary people. What should I do?
The four people said in unison: "Please go back to the Ninth Princess and complete Your Majesty's task!" ”
Bai Jun snorted coldly and said to them: "The four of you are all strong in martial arts, and it is absolutely not a problem to assassinate the Southern Barbarian King, why do you have to assassinate him?" ”
"This is His Majesty's order." The four of them spoke in unison.
"I have to do it, do I?" Bai Jun gritted his teeth angrily and said to them: "Okay, I now order you to go and kill the Southern Barbarian King for me!" ”
One of them replied, "Your Majesty only told us to monitor the Nine Princesses, but did not tell us to obey the orders of the Nine Princesses. ”
Bai Junzhuo almost wanted to slap each of them, he was really angry!
They said in unison: "Please go back to the Ninth Princess and complete the task assigned by Your Majesty!" ”
Bai Junzhuo was helpless, confronted them for a long time, and compromised: "Okay, I'll go back." Tell me what your names are, and I will call you later. ”
The four guards said one by one: "The subordinate is called Eleven." "The subordinate is called twelve." "The subordinate is called thirteen." "The subordinate is called Fourteen."
Bai Junzhuo was still a little unhappy in his heart just now, and now when he heard their names, he wanted to laugh a little, but if he laughed, he wouldn't fit the current situation.
She turned around with a straight face and went straight back to the dormitory where Fu Mingyue was.
When she arrived at the door of the dormitory, she suddenly found that the door of the palace was concealed, Bai Junzhuo couldn't help but pause, she clearly remembered that she had closed the door when she left just now, could anyone have come in while she was not there? Oh no, will Fu Mingyue ...... in that case
She suddenly pushed open the door and went in, walked quickly to the bed, and was relieved to see Fu Mingyue lying on the bed with even breathing.
After she calmed down, she couldn't help but smile self-deprecatingly, obviously she was determined to break off with Fu Mingyueen, but she still couldn't help but worry about her when she encountered something, she was really too kind.
She turned and walked outside, and when she reached the door, she was attracted by a potted plant next to the door, and she always felt that this plant was very different from the current situation when she passed through this door.
Bai Junzhuo frowned and looked at the potted plant carefully. This is a very common pot of Guanyin willow, with lush branches and leaves, which is very common in this palace, and its growth tends to the right side...... Right?!
Bai Junzhuo raised his eyes and looked at the window, the window was on the left side of Guanyin Willow, and it stands to reason that the growth should be biased to the left. No wonder she felt that this pot of Guanyin willow was a little different from what she saw when she first passed, someone must have come in and touched this potted plant!
But who would go into the dormitory just to touch the plants?
Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, so he went out and asked the two maidservants at the door, "Did anyone come in when I wasn't there just now?" ”
The two maidservants looked at each other and waved their hands.
Bai Junzhuo frowned and said, "You don't understand me, or has no one ever come in?" ”
The two maidservants were still waving their hands.
Bai Junzhuo was helpless, it seemed that these two people couldn't understand her. But if you think about it, there shouldn't be any bad intentions just to turn the plant around. So she didn't bother with it anymore. At this moment, I saw a very rough-looking woman coming over from a distance, and it seemed that she should be the same identity as the housekeeper in the palace of Li Guo.
The woman walked up to Bai Junzhuo and said to her, "In order to ensure the safety of the princess, I came over to check on the order of the king, may I ask if the princess is up?" ”
Bai Junzhuo hurriedly shook his head: "The princess was tired from running around last night, and she hasn't gotten up yet. ”
The woman nodded and said, "It's okay if you don't get up, I'll be light and won't wake up the princess." ”
As she spoke, the woman bypassed Bai Junzhuo and walked straight in, Bai Junzhuo couldn't stop her, so she had to stand at the door to see what she was doing.
The woman rummaged around, sniffing east and west, and when she smelled the incense, she stretched out her hand to extinguish the incense, and asked Bai Junzhuo, "Did you order this incense?" ”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment, not knowing what she wanted, and she didn't dare to answer rashly.
"If I ask you something, answer me quickly, or I will take you to the king of the southern barbarians and ask the king of the southern barbarians to interrogate you personally." The woman said fiercely.
Interrogate? Bai Junzhuo was speechless, she didn't do anything, so she lit an incense, as for making such a fuss?
She had no choice but to nod and say, "I ordered it." ”
"Did you know that incense alone has the effect of making people sleepy?" The woman asked again.
Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment, it seems that this woman still understands pharmacology. She replied, "I know that in our country, this incense is used to make people sleep peacefully. Our princess just arrived here last night, and she was very fond of Li Guo, so she couldn't sleep, so I lit this incense to help her sleep peacefully. ”
"Really?" The woman looked at her suspiciously.
Bai Junzhuo nodded again and again.
The woman did not speak much to her, but went back and forth and examined it. She checked Fu Mingyue's clothes, and even the ornaments were not spared.
Bai Junzhuo looked at her quietly, and checked it so carefully, it must be that the Southern Barbarian King suspected that Fu Mingyue married him in order to assassinate him. It seems that this Nanban King is really not stupid, but Yin Mu is still a step ahead, and he actually thought of calling her, a little maid who married with him, to complete the mission of assassination, and the Nanban King would never have thought of it.
Fu Mingyue slept very deeply, and the woman finished flipping, but Fu Mingyue still didn't wake up.
The woman stood for a while, and Bai Junzhuo thought that since she hadn't found anything that could threaten the Nanban King, she should leave, but she suddenly turned around, looked at Bai Junzhuo and said, "I have already checked the princess's things, what about the things you brought?" ”
Bai Junzhuo was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied: "I thought that the Southern Barbarian Kingdom would not lack my food and clothing, so I didn't bring anything. ”
The woman stared at Bai Junzhuo carefully for a while, and then said in a deep voice, "I want to check if you have anything on you that is enough to hurt the princess and the Nanban King." ”
Hearing this, Bai Junzhuo's face changed, although she had not planned to help Yin Mu kill the Southern Barbarian King before, she also carried a lot of poison in her small bag for self-defense. Medicine, as well as a dagger and a bracelet with a mechanism on her wrist, if she found out, the Nanban King would never allow her to stay alive in the palace.
Do you want to run now? This is in the palace of the Southern Barbarian King, where to run?
Kill this woman? Wouldn't that make the Southern Barbarian King even more suspicious?
The woman had already approached her step by step, and Bai Junzhuo's clenched palms were sweating.
Suddenly, the door of the temple was pushed open, and Eleven and Twelve came in, looking at the woman and said, "The princess is resting, you have been disturbing for a long time, please go out!" ”
The woman looked at the two of them and said to them, "I am also for the safety of the princess and the king of the Southern Barbarians. ”
Eleven said: "The safety of the princess is guarded by us, you can rest assured." ”
The woman's eyes were puzzled, and she said, "For the sake of the safety of the Southern Barbarian King, I must carefully examine all of you who have come from the Kingdom of Li and what you are carrying. ”
She said, just like Eleven and Twelve walked together, and Twelve said: "We are accompanying the princess to come and kiss, and we will be people from the Southern Barbarian Kingdom in the future, so naturally we will not have thoughts of harming the Southern Barbarian King." ”
"Do you think I'll believe it?" The woman sneered, "I still have to examine you carefully. ”
Eleven and Twelve were unfazed and stood up straight for her to examine.
Bai Junzhuo took advantage of the woman's attention to these two people, and hurriedly removed the poison in the bag. He took out the medicine and the dagger, pulled up the Guanyin Liuliantu behind his back with his back, and put the things in.
She put her hand into the basin, and suddenly touched a soft and cool thing, Bai Junzhuo couldn't help but be shocked, what is it?
