Chapter 120: Voices Strike West
Everyone was stunned, and when they picked up the lamp, they only felt a cold air coming from the soles of their feet, and immediately grabbed the brocade clothes and asked, "Where is the princess and concubine!" ”
Jinyi smiled: "I'm afraid that the princess has already left, let the slave and maid come and ask you for the five taels of silver." ”
Picking up the lamp's face changed greatly, he immediately panicked, and hurriedly asked people to find the princess, but there was not enough manpower, so he drew the soldiers from other directions, and the courtyard walls on the southeast, northwest, and west sides were suddenly empty.
Ye Qingcheng took people to observe outside the palace for a long time, and he didn't find a chance to go in, and suddenly saw that all the soldiers on the east wall had withdrawn, and he inquired in a daze, saying that the princess had escaped.
Shen really helped! Ye Qingcheng muttered that his jade ring was not given away in vain, and at the same time arranged for all the people behind him to climb over the wall and enter the palace.
At this time, it is faster to see who is faster, to see if they find Shen Meijing first with the light, or if they rescue the prince first.
With sweat on his face, Ye Qingcheng went all the way to the main courtyard, and outside the courtyard wall, he flattened his mouth and said: "Quack! ”
Wen and Meng in the room were nervous, and when they heard the frog chirping, they immediately remembered Shen Meijing's words.
"Lord Wang?" Meng Shi looked at King Yan.
King Yan raised his eyebrows and waved her hand to let her go out to see. Meng Shi hurriedly went to the wall, and he didn't know what to do, so he whispered: "There are no outsiders inside." ”
A few black shadows fell from the wall in an instant, which startled Meng Shi, and he was about to scream, but Ye Qingcheng covered his mouth: "Concubine Niangniang, in the lower Ye Qingcheng, came to the rescue on the order of the princess." ”
Meng Shi blinked, and he didn't know what to say, but he saw that several people in black had already carried the prince out.
"Time is pressing, the princess may not last long, the prince should leave first and then listen to the explanation." Ye Qingcheng said, with a wave of his hand, two ropes hung down from the wall, and everyone tied King Yan directly, and then as soon as the rope was pulled, the person was pulled out.
Jiang Xinyue was not in this courtyard, everything was very convenient, Wen and Meng opened the door and went out, chasing King Yan together.
As soon as the door opened, someone immediately shouted, "Stop them!" ”
Wen's Meng was taken aback, and Ye Qingcheng in front of him turned his head with a very complicated gaze: "We don't go to the door, just because there is some ambush at the door, you two don't have to worry, next time you come down to pick up the princess, we will definitely take you out together." ”
It's too late to say that! Wen was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "You guys go quickly, I'll break off with Sister Meng!" ”
Ye Qingcheng was stunned, didn't hesitate much, and immediately took King Yan out of the palace over the wall. Wen and Meng were surrounded by a group of guards and panicked.
A person stood up in the middle of the guards and looked at them with a frown: "In the middle of the night, the two side concubines are so flustered, what are they chasing?" ”
Meng Shi forced himself to calm down: "It's just that I can't sleep and come out for a walk, why are you so nervous?" ”
"Just take a walk?"
The man sneered, waved his hand, and a guard went to check on the main house.
"The prince is gone!" After a while, an exclamation came from the main house, and the people outside looked serious, and the leader was furious, looking at Wen and Meng: "Where did you hide the prince?" ”
Wen Shi was silent, Meng Shi was silent, the two only quietly listened to the movement in the distance, and did not hear the sound of the pursuers, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that they did not speak, the leader immediately said, "Tie them up!" ”
"Yes!" The people next to him answered, and they all looked for ropes to tie people up. Wen and Meng glanced at each other, their eyes sad but firm.
The worst plan is just to lose a life, as long as the prince can get out of trouble!
"Wait!"
The guard brought the rope and was about to tie up the people, but suddenly there was a coquettish reprimand from behind, which was like a thunderbolt on the ground, and startled everyone.
When the leader turned around, he saw the princess coming out of the darkness, looked at them with a frown, and said, "Dignified man, embarrassed by the female dependents? Don't say that the prince is still the prince, they are still the side concubines, even if there is no prince, no matter who succeeds to the throne as the king in the future, they have to be called aunts, are you waiting to say that they can be tied? ”
Wen looked at Shen Meijing in surprise, didn't she say that she was being chased by someone? How did you appear here so calmly?
Meng Shi looked at the woman who came over with this model, and only felt inexplicably down-to-earth, and his heart was slightly relieved at the moment.
"The princess?" The leader looked at her, pursed his lips and said: "The lowly officials were ordered to protect the prince here, but at this moment the prince was robbed by an unknown person. ”
"You can ask." Shen Meijing walked up to Wen Shi Meng and looked at this person with a smile: "Let's go into the house, sit down and ask slowly, okay?" This is taking a rope and tying people again, so that the second master will be charged with persecuting the prince's family, it's not very good, right? ”
The leader paused, thought about it, and said, "Then ask the three masters to move back to the main house." ”
"Okay." Meijing bowed her head, stretched out her hand to take the two side concubines, pinched them, and signaled them to calm down.
Just now she watched from the side, no one knew when the prince was sent out, but when the two side concubines opened the door, they touched a thread, and the thread pulled the bell, which directly woke up the night watchman.
However, they didn't even see Ye Qingcheng, they only saw the two side concubines running out. In this way, it is much easier.
Ye Qingcheng cooperated with her very well tonight, the prince was already safe, and the rest was to save her and the lives of the two concubines.
She deliberately asked Yushi to inform the lantern, and seeing that Song Liangye did not come back in person, she knew that he lacked skills, which was a good opportunity. Where is her opponent for a minion like Pick Lamp? Jinyi pretended to be her and scared him half to death, and hurriedly sent people to chase him in all directions, but she didn't think that she actually didn't leave the house at all.
This trick was originally intended to scare the lantern and make him strengthen his vigilance on the west side, so as to relax the east side. As a result, he didn't expect Ye Qingcheng to be waiting for an opportunity outside, and her move just gave him a gust of east wind.
It's also thrilling to think about, if anyone reacts slower tonight, the prince will definitely not be able to be rescued.
Meng Shi lowered his head and looked at his hand held by Shen Meijing, and could feel that her hands were full of cold sweat.
"Where did the prince go, can the two side concubines tell the truth?"
As soon as they sat down, the leader looked at them and said: "As soon as you run out, the prince will be gone, don't say you don't know, no one will believe it." ”
Meng and Wen sat on both sides of Shen Meijing, and when they heard this, Meijing was thinking about how to excuse herself, but a cry sounded on the left and right sides at the same time.
"My lord, please must, be sure to save the prince!" Wen pinched the handkerchief and cried: "We are resting well, suddenly a man in black came in and took the prince away, the prince is weak, how can he withstand such a toss?!" ”
Meng Shi's tears burst into tears: "Sister Wen and I were stupid, we didn't see the guards outside, we thought we were in the same group as the man in black, and we were ready to resist." It turned out to be you... What are you holding us back? Hurry up and save the prince! ”
Beauty: "......"
Don't worry about her at all, these are all old drama bones!
The leader was a little stupid for a moment, frowning at the two women who were crying in the dark. Although I felt that they were lying, these tears were really smashed down one by one, my eyes and nose were red, and I cried and sobbed, and the listeners were sad, and the listeners were about to cry.
Meijing couldn't hold back, and her eyes were red when they were infected by their crying.
“…… Can you tell us more about the situation? It's better to go and tell the second master. ”
Wen Shi smacked and said: "There are five or six people, covering their faces, I don't know who it is, I came in and picked up the prince, climbed over the wall and left." Sister Meng and I didn't react, but when we reacted and chased out, we were stopped by you. ”
"yes." Meng Shi wiped his tears: "They are all in a daze, and when they take the prince away, we will chase them out." ”
The leader pursed his lips, turned his head to let people chase after him, and let people know the second master.
After doing this, he sighed and shook his head. The prince is gone, it is his dereliction of duty, no matter what he does now, he can't escape the fate of being disposed of by the second master.
However, how could the palace, which is clearly guarded by layers, let people escape?
When I returned to the palace sweating profusely, I saw that the princess was making tea.
"You ......" He didn't know what to say, and as soon as his legs were weak, he knelt in front of Meijing: "Princess, save the slaves." ”
Looking down at him, Meijing smiled: "You are so dignified, why do you want me to save you?" ”
"The slave shouldn't say in front of the princess that you let you play." Pick up the lamp and looked at her remorsefully: "Now that the slave will give you five taels of silver, can you return the prince?" ”
Shen Meijing blinked, and handed him a cup of tea very innocently: "The prince was taken away by the man in black, what does it matter to me?" What's the use of you begging me, I also hope that the prince will return safely as soon as possible. ”
Picking up the lamp and crying and laughing: "You deliberately let Yushi pass the word, asked the servants to go to the west courtyard to guard, and relaxed the vigilance in other places, isn't it just to let people take away the prince from inside and outside?" The slave is wrong, the slave shouldn't play with you, this matter is known to the second master, the slave will die, and please show mercy to the princess and save the slave! ”
Meijing squatted down and looked at him: "If I beg you today to let me leave from the dog cave, will you agree?" ”
Picked up the lamp and shook his head: "How can this work, as soon as you leave, what will the slave do?" ”
"Isn't that right?" Meijing smiled: "Send the prince back, what should I do?" ”
The favor between people is established in the case of mutual benefit, and this kind of thing that harms the interests of others and asks others to forcibly give you favors will naturally not be allowed by anyone.
Picking up the lamp, he was deflated, and lay on the ground a little pitiful: "Since the princess is so smart, why don't you help the second master, but help the prince?" Even if you leave the palace, there is no way for the prince to come back to save you. ”
