Late at night, she and Holly met in an alley outside the courtyard, intending to wait until the defenses were lax.

She was looking at the small courtyard with longing eyes, and there was a quiet sound behind her, and although the footsteps were soft, there seemed to be several people.

She and Holly glanced at each other, and when they were about to fight, the other side took the initiative to speak, "Girl, my son-in-law's name is Wen Yeting, and he sent us to help you." ”

Hearing Wen Yeting's name, she was surprised, put down the Hidden Blade in her hand, and straightened up, but she didn't let her guard down, and only asked seriously, "How do you know I'm here?" ”

The leader bowed respectfully to her, "Girl, it was Fuchiyuki who informed us that we had a move tonight. You can rest assured, several of us are nameless and surnameless people, and even if we are discovered, we will not be able to find out our identities. ”

"This Wen Yeting is really, this abyss is also really......" she muttered a few words in her heart, but she felt a little more relieved with her protection.

Wen Yeting had long thought that she would take the risk to save people, and when she sent the letter, she had actually sent people here. It's just that he didn't dare to expose it easily before he acted, so as not to be discovered by Wang Miao early.

So I had to hide it from her, and I didn't show up until the last moment.

In an instant, she calmed down and told those people: "In a while, Senior Holly will go to lure Tao Xuanju away first, and you will follow me in to save people." Then he took out the incense that Holly had prepared early in the morning from his arms, "Use the smoke before being discovered, and if you are discovered, don't leave it alive, and make a quick decision." ”

Everyone nodded, and seeing that there were only two guards left at the gate for the night, they turned over to the eaves and looked down to observe the movement in the small courtyard.

It was quiet for ten minutes, and only one squad was still patrolling. Holly jumped into the courtyard and went to find Tao Xuanju's residence, trying to lure him away.

"Wait for the senior to lead the man away, the two of you will go to deal with the patrol, and the remaining two will follow me." She commanded.

It didn't take long to see Holly break out of the courtyard, and it was Tao Xuanju who was fighting with him.

"Search for me!" Tao Xuanju shouted to the guards, "Let's see if there are any comrades in the courtyard." ”

As soon as she gave the order, everyone began to move. Seeing that there were guards guarding outside the room at this time, he knew that he should be locked up here, so he stepped forward to charm the guard with incense, cut off the shackles on the door with a sword, and pushed the door in to find that it was Chaoyan.

So she hurriedly loosened the rope on Chao Yan's body, "Chao Yan, where are the others locked up?" ”

Chao Yan stood up, twisted his wrist, and said, "The four wings in the southeast, northwest, and northwest are all possible, so let's go our separate ways." By the way, I've looked out of this room and will meet at the side door behind the south wing, where you can go out. ”

She nodded, and each began to rescue, and in less than a cup of tea, everyone gathered at the side gate, and she slashed open the door with a sword, and fled.

After running some distance, she said, "These little brothers will escort you away, and Yuanzhi is waiting for you in the ruined temple outside the city, and you follow him to a safe place to hide." Then he turned around and went back.

Chao Yan grabbed her arm, "What about you?" ”

She patted Chao Yan's hand gently, "I have to help Senior Holly, he is still entangled with Tao Xuanju." I'll rush back to Yuhuatai when it's over, so as not to arouse suspicion. ”

As soon as these words came out, the others did not have time to refute, but they saw that she had already walked away, and quickly disappeared in the darkness.

"Auntie, she ...... among the flowers" Chao Yan didn't say anything, and the other two people present also understood a little, and the flower room in front of her seemed to be very different from the one they used to get along with day and night.

Yu Ming looked at the flowers in the distance and didn't answer, only said lightly, "Let's go, let's get out of it safely." ”

Chao Yan nodded, and followed Wen Yeting's personal soldiers to the ruined temple outside the city, but she couldn't help the thousands of emotions along the way, sitting in the carriage, she grabbed the placket on her knees, and she was so hard that she even sweated.

After coming out of Anxiang, she didn't have time to say anything every time she saw the flowers, but now the flowers standing in front of her seemed to be a brand new person. In the past, Hanama always looked gentle and soft, which was definitely different from the resolute and straightforward she is now.

What has changed? Chao Yan couldn't think of an answer, so he had to frown and show a confused expression.

Xiyan could see her sister's uneasiness, "Sister, are you still thinking about that girl in the flowers?" ”

Chao Yan came back to his senses, paused and replied, "Oh, it's nothing...... I guess I'm overthinking. ”

Yuming still didn't answer, and changed the topic and said, "You guys should rest first, I haven't closed my eyes much in the past few days, and we will discuss it when we settle down." ”

Here, Tao Xuanju saw that Holly had another helper, and he felt that it was not good for him, so he retreated. Seeing that the guards in the small courtyard had all fallen to the ground, he didn't expect the other party to be so agile and neat, so frightened that he rode a horse to report the news.

Seeing that Tao Xuanju had fled away, Holly knelt down, blood flowed down from his arm, and fell to the ground dripping, and soon the ground was already mottled with blood.

She was shocked when she saw this, "Senior, what's wrong with you?" After speaking, he hurriedly stepped forward to help Holly up.

"It's old...... Holly sighed, "It's okay, it's not a fatal injury, it's really not easy to deal with Tao Xuanju." "I stopped the bleeding for myself.

She put her mind at ease, picked up Holly and walked forward, "Senior, I'm afraid Tao Xuanju is going to move the rescuers." Let's get out of here. ”

The two were about to take a step, but they saw a group of heavily armed officers and soldiers rushing out of the surroundings and surrounding her and the two of them. She clenched her Hidden Blade tightly and whispered, "It seems that this Wang Miao still has a back hand." ”

Seeing that Tao Xuanju came back on horseback again, he shouted highly: "Holly, holly, do you underestimate me or look down on yourself?" How can you get away with a prisoner so easily! Just in case, the state lord has already sent me to set up an ambush nearby, just waiting for this little lady next to you to appear. ”

It turned out that it was for her.

At the moment, I can't care so much, I can only fight bloody battles and fight a bloody way. She didn't talk nonsense with Tao Xuanju, she only protected Holly backwards, turned around and said shallowly: "Seniors, go quickly, even if I am arrested, they won't dare to do anything to me." ”

Tao Xuanju saw her intentions and shouted loudly: "Don't let anyone want to leave!" ”

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the gunpowder crackled and exploded, and suddenly people turned on their backs. Tao Xuanju fell off his horse, and the other officers and soldiers collapsed and made a mess.

The smoke filled the air, choking her a little, and someone reached out and grabbed her, "Follow me." ”

It's Jiangning.

In the cloud, although she couldn't see the appearance of the person in front of her clearly, she recognized her voice.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Ning had taken the two of them to a hidden alley, and instructed Holly: "Old man, go one mile further, there is a house facing north. That's where I used to study floral art, and it's safe, so I can hide for the time being. With that, he took out the key from his bosom and handed it to Holly.

Holly glanced at her, not sure whether to take it or not. She stretched out her hand and put the key in Holly's hand, and then explained: "Senior, this is Jiang Ning, my own person. ”

Holly smiled briskly, "Thank you, girl, for saving your life." And he departed.

After Holly left, she looked at Jiang Ning, not knowing where to start. Jiang Ning didn't ask much, just lowered his head and walked towards the Yuhuatai.

She strode behind Jiang Ning, but she still couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?" ”

"I tried to look for you at night but failed, and found that the little guy who used to be with you was walking out, and I thought something was wrong and followed him. Then I saw you dressed up in a night suit, as if you were explaining something to him, and I couldn't help but follow him secretly. Later, I heard the sound of fighting from afar, and I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I hurried home and got a bag of gunpowder. After speaking, Jiang Ning laughed self-deprecatingly, "Fortunately, it's close to my house." ”

She was silent for a long time, and was speechless by Jiang Ning's call, and only said a "thank you" in a trance. ”

Before they knew it, they had arrived outside the gate of Yuhuatai, and the two of them went in one after the other, Jiang Ning turned around and whispered, "Go back and rest." ”

After speaking, Jiang Ning walked to his dormitory, still not asking more. When she returned to her room, she took off her night-walking clothes and lay down on the bed, but she could not sleep.

"Hanama, if it were you at this moment, would you tell Jiang Ning?"

After hesitating for a while, he replied: "It's better not to say it, Miss Shi, this matter has nothing to do with her, why involve her." Besides, she didn't ask. ”

"Having said that, she saved our lives tonight, and I can't bear to hide her." After saying that, she felt that she was a little indecisive, not like her at all.

She blinked helplessly, forced by the fact that she was not a ghost or a ghost, and she couldn't help what she wanted to do or say.

Then she said to herself firmly: "Let's talk to Jiang Ning in detail after everything is over, now at this juncture, she should not be involved." ”

Tao Xuanju was slightly injured after falling off his horse, and before he could deal with it, he immediately rushed to Muhua Palace to report the matter to Wang Miao.

Wang Miao was furious when she heard this, "You're all ready, why did you let them escape?" I will ask you what to atone for! After speaking, he stood up and stretched out his foot and kicked Tao Xuanju.

Tao Xuanju, who had just been injured, was kicked to the ground by this kick, and Wang Miao glanced at him with contempt, "When did you become so weak?" ”

Tao Xuanju knelt down and replied: "The state lord, the subordinates don't dare, because when they were about to succeed tonight, someone suddenly rushed out and put gunpowder. Although they were not badly injured, my horses were frightened, and I fell from my horse to the ground. ”

"Gunpowder? Where did they get the gunpowder? Go, let me find out who in the city has been buying fireworks recently. ”

Tao Xuanju held down his wound, stood up tremblingly, and replied, "Yes......"

He was about to turn around, but Wang Miao stopped him again, "The gunpowder merchant and the military department are also investigating." ”

Tao Xuanju retreated, Wang Miao pinched the jade cup in his hand and threw it to the ground, and the elixir in the cup instantly turned into a pool of stagnant water.
