The spitting out of Solandale's mouth was nothing else, it was a wet key, because it had been in it for so long, and it was stained with a lot of blood from the side of the tongue, which was shocking.

The visitation limit of the first-level prison is not as high as that in the black pass, and the ministers or princes of all parties do not need to have a king's decree to enter and leave the prison, as long as they are approved by the presiding jury and meet the standards for prison visits, which is why Solandale and Lorna can easily enter.

But after all, this is still a first-class prison dungeon, the highest level of imprisonment that regular prisoners will face, and the conditions for visiting prisons are relaxed, which does not mean that there are no rules.

According to the principle of first-class incarceration, visitors entering and leaving the place, regardless of their status, must undergo a strict body search, from head to toe, and the royal princess with her daughter is no exception.

The only privilege the princess received was that she could apply for a search by a jailer, who was also a woman, and would not be touched by men.

It is almost impossible to send the key to the first-level prison area, but it was done by Solandelle, who has been borrowing books for the past few days, secretly visiting relevant personnel, and conducting detailed research on the prison law and the actual operation process of dungeon supervision, and finally found a blind spot - under the tongue.

Although the jailers will ask the inmates to open their mouths during body searches, in practice, they usually take a cursory glance and let people in.

It was such a tiny flaw that was caught by Soranelle.

When she got up today, she took the key under her tongue, and concealed it from her father and the king, from her mother, from the ministers who met her, and from the imperial guards who served as jailers.

Because she had been holding it for too long, the sharp key had worn out her tongue, and her mouth was full of blood, but she had been silently enduring the pain, silently swallowing the blood, just to hide it from the world and bring this only hope of escape to Chino.

...

After Solandelle spit out the key, her emotions couldn't hold back, tears fell down her eyes, and she couldn't even wipe the blood on the side of her mouth, she held Chino's hand hard, let his five fingers close and clenched the key, and said with a crying voice: "No... It's the key to the cell... You have to hide it! It's the only thing that can save you..."

Chino looked at the bloodstained key in his hand and asked silently, "Where did this come from?" ”

Lorna, who was watching the wind at the door, turned around and smiled at Chino: "Bolton gave it." There were a group of jailers who were his former comrades-in-arms, and he enlisted the help of these people to get out with a copy of the cell key. ”

"Chino, listen carefully, you must keep in mind our next plan-"

"After we're gone, you hide the key where the jailers can't find it. In the evening, I will come to rob the prison on the scarlet night, at nine o'clock... Remember! Nine o'clock sharp! Don't delay a minute! As soon as you hear the bell ringing in the royal city, you immediately use the key to open the prison door, and don't care about anything along the way, and rush straight outside, and then you will definitely see me and Scarlet Night waiting for you there. ”

"As soon as we receive you, we take to the skies. Bolton will lead people to control the commander of the Royal City Garrison in advance, and the ballista defense system of the Great Wall of the Royal City will be completely paralyzed. When the time comes, I will take you to escape from the air, all the way east, fly out of the country, and you will be free. ”

"You can find a place to live in seclusion, and if you meet again, Solan and I will definitely come to see you."

After listening to Lorna's course of action, Chino suddenly fell into an abnormal silence, obviously not expecting that the three of them would come up with such a crazy plan, and they would actually think of robbing the prison in the palace.

Chino frowned and said, "You are not playing with fire, you are setting yourself on fire." Have you considered the consequences? ”

Lorna rubbed her nose and smiled nonchalantly, "It's okay, Bolton said, after letting you go, he will go to Pertheus to plead guilty." As for me, it's impossible for me to apologize to my dad, and I admit that no matter how I am punished, it's a big deal to be locked up for a few years, can they still kill me? ”

Solandale sniffed, wiped away her tears, and said in a trembling voice: "No, we have tried many methods, but no matter who we ask for intercession, it is useless, and the only way left is to let you escape..."

Chino shook his head dryly, and handed the key back: "I appreciate your kindness, but with all due respect, the plan you came up with is very bad, terrible. I..."

Before Chino finished speaking, Solandel slammed his hand back, crying as sad as he had never been, but he was afraid that the movement would alarm the royal guards on the upper floor, so he could only cover his mouth and sob: "No... You don't understand where you are... They've decided they're going to execute you..."

"After the first plenary meeting, my father summoned the heads of the five royal families for a secret meeting. According to Denisha, Governor Edward, who had supported you at the meeting, has changed his mind and decided to support your execution. ”

"Although Regnome and Dagon have not expressed their position directly, Governor Edward's defection has completely reversed the situation, and no one in the Five Great Lords Families is really standing behind you..."

"Even my mother blamed you for Brother Burton's whipping, saying that you were demagoguery and that he should be executed immediately. Brother Andre couldn't resist her, so he slammed the door in a fit of rage..."

"Although my father didn't say anything on the spot, so many people think that you should die, he has no reason to protect you from the crowd, and there is a high probability that he will make a decision according to the votes of all parties!"

"If you don't run away, Father will most likely pronounce a verdict at the Second Kingdom Council and execute you!"

Lorna snorted, clenched her fists and said indignantly: "Denisa is a coward, I asked her to rob the prison with me, she lay on the ground and pretended to be asleep on the spot, it's really cowardly!" Don't worry, Chino, you're not alone now, Solan Burton and I will be on your side. ”

Solandale wiped the tears from her face and said in a trembling voice, "No, you put away the key, you must put it away, and then remember Lorna's plan..."

Chino shook his head and handed the key back, "Listen to me." ”

Solandelle's emotions were a little out of control, she struggled to push Chino's hand back, in order to let him relax, even at the expense of grabbing and biting his hand, whimpering and sobbing: "Would you believe me once... I won't hurt you... You believe me! Trust me! Hide this key, it's the only thing that will save you..."

Chino: "Listen to me. ”

Solandelle hugged Chino's waist helplessly, tears continued to fall, her thin shoulders kept trembling, there were no nine princesses of the royal family now, only a child who was afraid of losing her best friend, sobbing intermittently: "I don't want you to die... I'm trying to find another way to save you, but I really don't know what to do... I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..."

Suddenly, Chino pinched the back of Solandale's neck, and at the same time leaned down, the foreheads of the two were tightly pressed together, the tips of their noses touched, and their faces were so close that they could even vaguely feel the temperature on each other's lips, as if their bodies and minds were going to melt together.

This action made Solandelle fall into a daze, she opened her eyes in confusion, those magnificent amber eyes were close at hand, there was neither the sadness of the end of the road, nor the determination of desperation, some were just indifferent and empty, looking into her eyes at the nearest distance between body and mind.

Chino: "Listen to me. ”

Solandelle sobbed, slowly calmed down under Chino's gaze, nodded slightly, and the two of them pressed their foreheads together, causing Chino's head to shake as well.

Chino still maintained the movement of sticking his forehead, and at the same time reached out to help Solandel wipe away the tears on his face, and finally stared at the pair of clear blue eyes, and said with deep meaning: "Do you want to save me?" ”

There was silence in the cell, and the noble Ninth Princess clinged to the death row inmate who had no hope, nodded vigorously, and gave him the answer with the most passionate eyes.

"You want to save me—" Chino opened Solandale with ease, handed her back the bloody key, and said the second half of the sentence, "Take the key back and destroy it." And from this day forward, don't come to me again, cut off all relations with me, as if I never appeared in your life, like you never met me. ”

Solandale froze in place, bewildered, not understanding what it meant.

Solandelle couldn't figure it out, and the not-so-smart Lorna couldn't figure it out, she thought that Chino was going to cut off the relationship and keep the two of them safe, so she hurriedly advised: "Chino, don't think about it, no matter what they do with you, the two of us will not be implicated by you." Now we are the only ones on your side, if we leave it alone, you are really alone, who else can save you? ”

Chino: "Me. ”

"You?" Lorna was stunned.

Chino continued to help Solandel wipe the tears on his face, both new and old, and said deeply, "It's not a dead end now, I have my plan." Your rash plans to rob the prison will only shatter my plans, and you are not helping me, but harming me. So, please cease all your actions. ”

"As for why you don't come to me again, it's simple—" said Chino, holding out his hand to put his hand around Solandale's little face, looking her into the eyes, "neither your father nor your mother have a good impression of me. And always remember that you are a royal princess, with a special status, and the most taboo thing for your father and king is that his children get too close to the officials below. ”

"Under this premise, the more you show intimacy with me, the closer you get to me, and the more you care about me, the deeper your father's disgust for me will be."

"If you even risk your life for my sake and plan to rob the prison, then his disgust with me will turn into outright murderous intent. When the time comes, I really have no way to escape, and no one can save me. ”

Solandelle froze in place, although she had read a lot of books, but after all, she was only a young child, and she didn't understand these scheming and power tricks, let alone her own efforts, it turned out that every step of the way was harming Chino.

Solandale asked in a low voice, "That... Do you want me to act like I don't care about you? ”

Chino: "Yes. So cut ties with me, at least forget me for the rest of your time, live your life well, and stop plotting these dangerous things, let alone plead with your father. ”

Solandale pursed her lips tightly and said in a trembling voice, "But I can't really forget you... No, is there anything else I can do to help you? ”

"If you don't think you can forget me, maybe there's something—" Chino was halfway through his sentence when the door opened the upper passageway.

"Squeak—"

At the same time, the voice of the imperial guard came from the end of the corridor: "5 minutes have come, two highnesses, please leave." ”

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Solandale was so frightened that she didn't dare to turn her head back, hurriedly covered it with her body, took the key from Chino's hand, stuffed it back under her tongue, and then raised her head and looked at him with a burning gaze, as if urging an answer.

Chino looked sideways at the Imperial Guards walking in the distance...

No time.

That's...

Chino leaned over to Solandale's ear, his lips furished, and he whispered a word.

In an instant, Solandelle's delicate body shook, frozen in place like a statue, her azure pupils fluttering, her pupils dilated, and she raised her head blankly, looking at Chino with an incomprehensible look.

The action of Chino leaning over to Solandelle's ear just now was seen by the two imperial guards, who mistakenly thought that Chino was going to break the net and kidnap the princess, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, like lightning rushing forward.

"Boom!" The speed of the imperial guard was as fast as a streamer, instantly grabbing Chino away from Solandale's side, pressing him against the wall, the violent impact even made the wall appear spider-like cracks, she grabbed Chino's neck with five fingers and claws, stared at his every move, and said coldly: "Don't move." ”

Another royal guard escorted Solandelle and led her out of the cell, asking with concern, "Your Royal Highness, he didn't do anything to you, did he?" Are you feeling unwell? If so, please let me know immediately. ”

Solandale couldn't hear anyone else at this time, the voice in her ears was like countless windows, distorted and hazy, her whole person was dizzy, her consciousness was very blurred, she felt that even time began to slow down, she couldn't perceive anything, only the words that Chino just said kept echoing in her head...

That kind of thing... How can it be...

He just said...

...

Lorna didn't hear what Chino said to Solandelle at all, and she didn't even see the whispering movements, she only saw Chino suddenly beaten, and her anger came up, and she grabbed the wrist of the imperial guard and scolded fiercely: "Let go!" He didn't do anything, why are you hitting him? If you don't let go, I'll sue you for beating the prisoner privately! ”

This black cauldron is not something that anyone can carry, and the imperial guards saw that Solandelle was not harmed, and Chino did not make any out-of-the-ordinary movements, and the strength in his hands slowed down.

The imperial guards took the two out of their cells, locked the door, and called in a few psychosis to cast spells on Chino's cell door to strengthen the barrier in case something happened.

One of the Imperial Guards approached Solandale, put his arm around her shoulder, and whispered, "Please leave, Your Highness." ”

Solandale walked to the corridor in a daze, the whole person was always in a state of confusion, her eyes were full of confusion, she suddenly came back to her senses halfway, looking back at Chino...

In the winged cell, Chino looked at Solandale, his amber eyes shining mysteriously in the candlelight.

"Goodbye, little princess."
