Chapter 288: Safe Evacuation

After the last person in the Hui Garden also entered the secret passage, the cold ice restored the secret passage to its original state.

At this time, he could already hear the faint noise coming from the street outside, and knew that the Yan family's soldiers should have approached the Prime Minister's mansion.

A sneer crossed his lips as he quickly exited the house and flew onto the roof. In a few vertical jumps, he has jumped onto the courtyard wall adjacent to the Prime Minister's Mansion and Huiyuan.

Without stopping at all, he fell into the backyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion again.

The carriage was still parked at the back door. He turned the carriage around, and then opened the gate to the backyard.

Flying into the carriage, he waved the whip in his hand and drove the carriage out of the door.

Those Yan Mansion soldiers and guards who had gathered outside the Prime Minister's Mansion were instigated by others in ignorance, and they didn't know who they were really dealing with. At this time, they suddenly saw a carriage rushing out of the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they instinctively wanted to step forward to stop it.

The horsewhip in Han Bing's hand swung rapidly, knocking the few government soldiers who rushed up first to the ground.

Although these soldiers of the Yan clan are well-equipped, they are kept in various provinces on weekdays, neglect training, and their combat effectiveness is extremely poor.

Moreover, these soldiers and guards who were lured to attack the Prime Minister's Mansion were all from those Yan clansmen who did not have a high status and were not taken seriously enough.

They just got the news and agreed to start an incident today and go to attack the palace together. There is no unified command, no concrete plan of action, just a rabble that follows and coaxes.

Therefore, it was only a little instigated by the Ouchi secret agents who were mixed in, and these people immediately changed their original goals and went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion one after another.

At the same time, they were still secretly rejoicing in their hearts, where is the defense of the Prime Minister's Mansion comparable to the Imperial Palace, and wouldn't it be easy to take it down?

Who knew that they were thinking about beautiful things in their hearts, and they just rushed to the back door of the Prime Minister's Mansion with great momentum, and they met a murderous god without blinking!

Han Bing's whips seemed to be waved lightly, but the internal force was condensed on them, and the position of the whips was also very tricky, all of them were in the temples and throats of those government soldiers, and the middle of them were all killed on the spot.

When those soldiers saw that their opponents were so powerful and vicious, they couldn't help but feel afraid, and they retreated one after another, making way for the cold carriage.

Seeing this, Han Bing laughed, and with another swing of his whip, the carriage ran over the corpses of the soldiers on the ground who had just been killed by him, and rushed towards a main street in front of him.

By this time, there was not a single pedestrian on the street, and the sound of horses' hooves and wheels echoed on the empty bluestone pavement, filling this eerie silence with a faint sense of solemnity.

Suddenly, with a few faint bowstring sounds, followed by "whoosh" and "whoosh" sounds, a rain of arrows came from all directions, and the ice and the carriage he was driving came from all directions!

As if he had been prepared, the ice rolled down to the bottom of the carriage with a roll over.

After being hit by the arrow, the horses pulling the cart neighed and fell to the ground, and even the body of the cart leaned and fell crookedly.

The ice under the car suddenly appeared, and the wheels above him stepped on, and his body soared into the air and flew down to the roof on the left side of the street.

The Moon-Running Sword, which he had held in his hand at some point, also drew a curtain of light, shooting down all the arrows that were shooting at him.

Seeing the cold ice falling from the sky, more than a dozen black-clothed men who were originally ambushed on the roof on the left side hurriedly threw down the crossbow in their hands that they had no time to reload, and drew their blades from their waists one after another, and rushed forward to surround him.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the cold feet were stained with the roof tiles, they rolled sharply, and they rolled directly down the eaves into the dark alley behind the house!

Seeing this, the people on the roof were stunned for a moment, and then jumped down one after another......

When the people who were ambushed across the street and in front and behind arrived one after another, and surrounded both ends of the dark alley, they finally found that the shadow of ice had long been lost in the dark alley.

And at this moment, in this alleyway that exudes damp and turbidity, there are more than a dozen corpses lying horizontally and vertically. Upon examination, each of them had a fatal blood mark on their throat.

After climbing over the wall from the house on the other side of the dark alley, Han Bing didn't dare to stop for a moment, but went straight to the flower mansion next to the palace.

When he arrived near Huafu, he heard the sound of fierce killing from a distance, and he knew that it was the soldiers of the Yan family who were attacking the palace.

Fortunately, although the Flower Mansion is close to the palace, it has not been affected by any impact due to the distance from the palace gates everywhere.

Han Bing climbed over the wall and entered the Flower Mansion and found that it was empty. He saw that the items everywhere were neatly placed, and he should have been calm when he wanted to evacuate the people in the house.

Then he was relieved. Now that these people who may be retaliated by Zheng Yong have been safely evacuated, then he has no worries and can give it a go with Zheng Yong and his inner masters.

Sitting leisurely in the side hall where he often chatted with his uncle Hua Fengshan and Sister Xiangjun, Han Bing first poured himself a cup of cold tea, and then drank tea while imagining the chaotic scene outside with a smile.

Those soldiers of the Yan clan who were attacking the palace, because they had not received any decent resistance, thought that their side had the advantage, and the clamor was very lively.

In fact, they were just bluffing there, waiting for the Empress Yan who was sitting in the palace to make a timely move, gain control of the guards guarding the palace city, and finally open the palace gate and let them in.

But they didn't know that the emperor had already left a secret decree, ordering Song Xingye, Marquis of Jingyuan, to command the 5,000 guards who stayed in the palace, and even gave him the privilege of detaining the queen if necessary.

The 3,000 soldiers of the Yan clan who were leaderless had no chance of winning against the 5,000 guards led by the Song Hou, who was the best at defending the city.

However, in order to ensure that the palace city was not lost, Song Hou should not easily go out of the city to fight, so he also let those Yan soldiers occupy the gates of Jingyang City and wantonly cause chaos in the city.

And Zheng Yong's traitorous eunuch seized this opportunity and wanted to take advantage of the chaos to put Zuo Xiang's father and son to death. Unexpectedly, his trick was discovered by Han Bing in time, allowing Zuo Xiang to get out of the secret passage of Huiyuan.

After discovering that the Prime Minister's Mansion was empty, Zheng Yong should not have thought of the existence of the secret passage, but would only suspect that the Zuo Prime Minister was taken advantage of by Han Bing to hide elsewhere on the way back to the mansion.

Otherwise, why didn't Han Bing also get out of the secret passage directly, but put himself under the siege of the Yan Clan's soldiers and countless masters of the Great Interior?

Even if Zheng Yong really suspected that there was a secret passage, with the skills of those masters under him, it would never be possible to search for the entrance to the secret passage that was extremely hidden in the huge Xiangfu and Huiyuan in a short period of time.

Han Bing couldn't help but laugh heartily at the thought of the angry expression on the old face of the traitor when he found that his other elaborate arrangements had failed.

But after laughing twice, he suddenly thought of something, and the expression on his face suddenly became solemn.

Suddenly putting the teacup in his hand on the table, he stood up and hurried outside.
