When Mingzhu and the others returned to Guangming Palace, Guangming Hall was actually a little disheartened, everyone knew that something happened to Yuwenchu, the Empress Dowager ordered Concubine Min and Mingzhu to be imprisoned, and Funing was also arrested by Empress Dowager Min, so many people were looking for another way. Fortunately, there were a few people who were arranged in Guangming Hall by Yu Wenchu before, so there was no case of escaping with money.

The first thing Concubine Min did was to deal with a few people who did the most out-of-the-ordinary way and spread rumors, and after Mingzhu placed Princess Huayang properly, she asked Xia Xue to connect all the people who could be contacted and belonged to the British Palace. Yuwenbai is said to have been having a high fever since he was wounded by an arrow, and Empress Dowager Min must be very angry, in this case, she must try to get Funing out, at least she must find out where Funing is being held, and whether she has suffered too much, otherwise the two sides will clash later, and Yuwenchu will be greatly restricted.

Xia Xue quickly brought back a thin and short old eunuch, the old eunuch's surname was Jin, his name was Youfu, he looked very inconspicuous, but he controlled about one-third of Yu Wenchu's manpower in this palace.

His attitude towards Mingzhu was very deferential, and he explained the situation when he came up: "The old slave heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess was taken away by Zhaoyang Palace, so he let people stare there, and Her Royal Highness the Princess is currently imprisoned in a room in the corner of the apse of Zhaoyang Palace, where the daily residence is the grandmother who is close to the Queen Mother. There were a total of six people watching in front of her, four of them were sitting and lying down, two were only watching from the outside, and there were more than a dozen Long Linwei patrolling around, every other stick of incense. It's not very difficult, as long as we are quick enough to get these six people in a stick of incense, and then take Her Royal Highness the princess away, we can avoid them. ”

Mingzhu listened and took notes, took the charcoal strip and drew a map of the layout of Zhaoyang Palace on the side. Good memory has the advantage of being able to easily map out the layout of these complex roads and houses, and even where people can be hidden and where they can pass can be clearly marked for easy planning.

Jin Youfu saw the drawings, and his little eyes shone brightly: "The old slave is worried that some people are not familiar with the road layout of Zhaoyang Palace, with this drawing drawn by the princess, then you can get twice the result with half the effort." But he frowned again: "There is one more thing, I don't know who gave the Empress Dowager Min an idea, and hung a bronze bell outside the door of the room where Her Royal Highness the princess lived, as long as the bronze bell rang, all the Long Linwei stationed in the palace would rush there, which was more troublesome." ”

Mingzhu raised her eyebrows: "Can't you take off the bronze bell first?" ”

Jin Youfu smiled bitterly: "That is the wind and rain bell cast by Emperor Wen when he ascended the throne." ”

In the year when Emperor Wen ascended the throne, he specially ordered to cast ten bells to hang them in various parts of the palace, each of which weighed 399 catties. Mingzhu thought for a moment and drew a circle on the map: "I remember that there is a room here, and you can hide the clock here." I have a way to transport it, it just depends on Lao Jin, if you have anyone here who can get this thing out. ”

She simply drew a board and four pulleys underneath it: "As long as there are materials, anyone who knows a little carpentry can do it." Spread a quilt on top and it would be easy to carry the bell away. As for how to pick up the bell and keep it from making a sound, you must know better than I do. ”

Jin Youfu pondered for a moment and said, "This can be done." It depends on when the princess plans to do it. ”

Of course, the sooner the better. Mingzhu asked him, "How long will it take for you to make this thing?" When is Zhaoyang Palace the most lax? ”

Jin Youfu calculated and said: "After half an hour, everything can be ready, Empress Dowager Min will take care of Your Majesty in the Chongzheng Palace in the morning, and she will go back to Zhaoyang Palace to take a nap at noon, she has quirks when she takes a nap, and the people in the palace are not allowed to make any noise, so the palace people generally do not move around at that time, which is the most beneficial for us." ”

Mingzhu slapped the board: "Then go and prepare, start at noon." ”

Jin Youfu immediately went down to prepare, and Mingzhu called Dong Hui and the others over: "Which of you is most familiar with the terrain of Zhaoyang Palace?" ”

Dong Hui said a little reluctantly: "The slave maid has been in Zhaoyang Palace for a year. ”

Mingzhu laughed: "That's you, I haven't been in contact with Jin Youfu before, and I don't know how good they are." And there are many of them, and I don't know if they will drag each other back, but Funing must be made, so Donghui, you will go quietly, act at the opportunity, and try your best to protect Funing and bring her out safely. ”

Dong Hui frowned: "But His Royal Highness's order to the slave maid is to protect the princess, not Her Royal Highness the princess." ”

Mingzhu knew that this was the reason: "The situation is different, I am here at the moment, there is no danger, you just have to listen to my arrangement." ”

Dong Hui had no choice but to respond, and repeatedly told Mama Su and the others that they must be careful and careful.

It was almost noon, and news came from Jin Youfu, saying that everything was ready, and he was just waiting for Empress Dowager Min to return to the palace to rest. Not long after, the news that Yuwenbai had come to his senses and that Empress Dowager Min had returned to the palace to rest, Mingzhu urged Dong Hui to get up, and she herself went to visit Concubine Min.

Concubine Min had already taken care of the affairs in her hand, and knew that Mingzhu had arranged someone to save Funing, so she said: "My eyelids are jumping hard, I want to chant the scriptures, you go and rest for a while, you didn't sleep all night yesterday, and you were tired enough." ”

Mingzhu came out of the warm main hall, and as soon as the cold wind blew, she felt a little dizzy and nauseous, so Su Mei said: "The princess go and rest for a while, the slave maid will ask Aunt Liu for two pills to give you to eat." ”

But all such medicines have a calming effect in them, Mingzhu didn't want to sleep, so he said: "No need, I'll just take a walk around here, and it will be fine for a while." ”

Mama Su and the others accompanied Mingzhu to stop and go, at this time, the wind and snow stopped at the beginning, the heavy clouds dispersed a little, and a few rays of sunlight shot down from above, shining the clouds with golden light, Mama Su looked up and said in a low voice: "There is also a blizzard." ”

Mingzhu smiled: "Mama also knows the celestial phenomena. ”

Mama Su smiled, her originally mean and old-fashioned face was much more vivid and soft: "Yes, those who are from Orion families can understand a little fur." ”

Suddenly, a palace man rushed over and almost bumped into Mingzhu, Su Mama grabbed her and scolded: "Reckless, what kind of system?" ”

The palace people panicked, so they just knelt down and kowtowed to admit their mistakes. Mingzhu frowned and said, "What makes you so alarmed?" ”

Gong said: "There is a terrible woman over there, she has no ears, no legs, and a scar on her forehead, I don't know how there can be such an unsound person in the palace......"
