Chapter 331: The Secret Passage
"At that time, after the subordinates heard that General Manager Chang had returned to Beijing, the subordinates guessed that it should be you, and after concluding that you were not in danger for the time being, the subordinates immediately returned to the Kingdom of Chen and brought our original batch of secret guards over, so it was delayed for some time." Leng Feng said, "I wanted to give you some news, but our former people are dead, and our subordinates have not been able to contact you." ”
I see.
At the same time, Yin Jingrui suddenly realized, but he was even more overjoyed, "You mean you brought our people over?" ”
At that time, he was still worried, if he could bring his original group of secret guards over, then they would be safe and sound when they returned to the Chen Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, Leng Feng actually understood his mind, he really didn't know what to say.
"Yes, my subordinates are afraid that Yin Jingyao will attack you again, so-"
"Okay, Leng Feng, you did me a big favor." Yin Jingrui couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder twice more to show his appreciation.
"It's just, how are we going to get out now?" Leng Feng was not happy, and said with a worried face, "My subordinates just arrived in Shu Mansion today, and I heard that Shu Gongzi entered the palace in a hurry, and his subordinates were worried about your safety, so they mixed in directly, and those people haven't had time to arrange ......."
Leng Feng regretted it very much, he had known that he should have made plans to enter the palace again.
Now the emperor is furious and orders a large-scale search for the two in the palace, but he is afraid that the palace gate has long been under martial law, and if he wants to get out now, it will definitely be tantamount to a sheep in the mouth of a tiger.
"You don't need to worry about that."
Yin Jingrui calmed down and said leisurely.
In fact, when he came back this time, just in case, he had already made two plans.
He had heard that when the Changguo Imperial Palace was built, a secret escape path was prepared.
During this time, he took advantage of the opportunity to be by the emperor's side, and he had already secretly figured out the entrance to the secret passage. Originally, he thought that if there was any emergency, it would be a way out.
I didn't expect it to be used now, and he couldn't help but thank himself for taking precautions.
And he is in the palace, and he also has some henchmen of his own.
On the way to Gonggong Li just now, he had already given these people a hint, and now as soon as it was night, the people he arranged would cover him and evacuate from that secret passage.
Hearing him say this, Leng Feng was immediately relieved.
"Or the master is prescient."
"But what do we do now? Will they chase here? Su Yiyi was also very happy about the return of the cold wind.
She thoughtfully left time for the two of them, and she didn't say anything during the whole process, and now when she heard Yin Jingrui's words, she couldn't help but worry.
"Madame, don't worry, those pursuers before have been led to the Imperial Garden by their subordinates, and if you think about it, they won't notice here for a while." Hearing the words, the cold wind said.
Indeed, at this time, the Changguo Imperial Palace was in chaos, especially the surrounding palaces close to the Imperial Garden, and the guards with blades were searching for the whereabouts of Yin Jingrui and Su Yiyi one by one.
Because in the process of chasing Yin Jingrui by the secret guards just now, he happened to be seen by Leng Feng, so in fact, what disappeared in the Imperial Garden was just a flaw deliberately sold by Leng Feng, but the emperor thought that Yin Jingrui was missing in the Imperial Garden, so he ordered people to take the Imperial Garden as their loyalty and launch a search and investigation.
And the cold palace and the imperial garden, one in the south and the other in the north, according to this kind of search, so Leng Feng dares to be so sure.
Sure enough, the cold wind's judgment was right, and when it gradually got dark, there was silence here.
I don't know how long it took for two cuckoos to sound outside.
Yin Jingrui knew that his people had arrived.
He immediately woke up Su Yiyi, who had been waiting for a long time to fall asleep, and motioned for her to be silent, and then the three of them went out together.
"Mr. Chang." A small palace maid stood outside the door.
"How's it going?"
"Manager Chang rest assured, the guards in that corner have been fascinated by the slave and maid."
At the beginning of the founding of the Chang Kingdom, the first Chang Huang did not prevent a rebellion, so at the beginning of the construction of the palace, he secretly arranged for craftsmen to build a secret passage leading directly to the outside of the palace.
This matter is confidential, and Yin Jingrui also learned about it by accident, and the entrance to the secret passage is at the junction of the harem and the outer palace, in a side hall not far away.
Chengqian Palace is the emperor's residence, the reason why the entrance is not set in Chengqian Palace, but considering multiple circumstances, so the entrance is set in that place, even if the emperor stays in the harem at night, he can evacuate under the cover of his subordinates in time.
In that place, in addition to the patrolling guards, there is only a small number of guards guarding it, and it is claimed that outsiders are not allowed to enter the harem, but in fact, the original intention is to protect the secret passage.
However, no one knew about this matter, and the emperor did not dare to send heavy troops to guard it, otherwise it would seem that there would be no three hundred taels of silver here.
So this also gave Yin Jingrui a chance.
As she spoke, the palace maid took the initiative to turn around and walk forward.
"She?" Su Yiyi pulled Yin Jingrui, a little suspicious.
After Zhu Dieyi's betrayal, she now sees that everyone is a little distrustful, if this palace maid has already informed, then she and others will pass like this, wouldn't she be caught in the net.
"Don't worry, Cuizhu won't." Yin Jingrui understood her worries and said very firmly.
Cuizhu is just the most humble low-level palace maid in this palace, because of her stupidity, she is often bullied, and Yin Jingrui also inadvertently bumped into her, when she was framed by the palace maid on duty in the same class, she was punished by the steward, and she was dying of hunger.
He was kind-hearted for a while, saved her, and hinted that the steward changed her to an errand, who knew that this Cuizhu was later remembered in his heart because of this, and he always wanted to repay the favor, and later Yin Jingrui saw that she was indeed sincere, so he kept her.
After all, in this palace, accidents can happen at any time, and sure enough, it just comes in handy now.
Because several of them were familiar with the palace, they avoided the patrolling guards very smoothly along the way, and soon came to the side hall.
"Manager Chang, the slave and maid have sent you and your wife here, I wish you a safe journey."
"Cuizhu, why don't we go together." Su Yiyi was a little unbearable, she helped herself like this, if people knew, she was afraid that her life would not be guaranteed.
"Madam, the slave and maid will not drag you down, the slave and maid are here to wish you and the eldest prince many blessings and longevity, and a hundred years of good together."
The secret of Chang Rui's identity has long been spread throughout the harem, so it is not surprising that Cuizhu calls Yin Jingrui so.
"Okay, take care."
Yin Jingrui didn't say much, and he didn't know how he moved, and the rockery suddenly cracked a gap for only one person.
"What people!" At this moment, someone suddenly shouted.
On the order of Zhu Dieyi, Gonggong Li, who was searching for Yin Jingrui everywhere, was feeling a little uncomfortable because he returned in vain, and he was a little hesitant when he thought of going back for fear of being scolded by Zhu Dieyi again.
When he passed by here, he happened to think that there was also an empty hall here, although this place was not far from the emperor's Chengqian Palace, but with Yin Jingrui's cunning and cunning temperament, it was not impossible for him to hide here.
With the heart of giving it a try, Gonggong Li flipped in, and who knew that he happened to bump into this scene.
Seeing that it had been discovered, Cuizhu immediately urged, "You guys go quickly." ”
