Chapter 328 Tell my brother?
"Beijiang?"
Wei Xiuchu was stunned for a moment, "Where are you from Beijiang?"
"Lingnan."
After a pause, Xie Ling continued, "Come with me. I can heal your leg. It won't be too late to plan slowly then. Our primary goal now is to leave."
"I know you're doing this for my own good, but..."
Wei Xiuchu smiled bitterly, "Beijiang means something different to me. I..."
Xie Ling frowned and interrupted him, "Uncle, you are a grown man, why are you being so fussy? Just come with me! Apart from anything else, Linglong and I are worried about you staying here alone. The emperor will not let you go."
"But my legs... If we go together, I will just be a burden and will hold you back."
Wei Xiuchu still refused, "You and Linglong go, don't worry, Wei Xiuchu can't kill me, I know my limits."
Xie Ling raised her eyebrows, "Uncle, if you continue like this I will knock you out and take you away. Anyway, you have to go to Beijiang. You have to go whether you want to or not."
Wei Xiuchu laughed helplessly, "Okay. But I have one condition. If you encounter an emergency and need to escape, you must leave me alone."
Xie Ling nodded perfunctorily, "Okay, okay, okay, I got it. Don't worry, I will definitely not care about you and just take Linglong with me to escape."
After looking at the sky, he continued, "I have to go out and bring Linglong back. You wait here for me."
As he spoke, he took out a flare from his sleeve and said, "If anything happens, light this flare and I will know immediately."
Wei Xiuchu nodded and said gently, "Okay."
I thought that An Ning was a very considerate and considerate child.
Xie Ling stood in the courtyard and looked outside the hall through the carved wooden window.
The emperor was probably afraid that they would escape, so he arranged many guards to patrol back and forth and guard closely.
Even in Prince Yong's palace, there were many palace maids and eunuchs acting as spies.
Xie Ling rolled his eyes, walked to another room, and shouted: "This room is so dirty, how can people live here? Why don't you send a maid to clean it for me! Otherwise, His Majesty will deduct your salary."
The palace maids over there pushed and shoved for a while, and finally a little palace maid came out with a complaining look on her face.
The little maid suppressed her reluctance and asked, "Where should I sweep?"
Xie Ling leaned against the railing and pointed to the room behind her, "Here, it's inside."
As soon as the little palace maid stepped over the threshold, Xie Ling quickly followed her in and closed the door.
The little maid opened her eyes wide with fear, "What are you going to do——"
Before he could finish his words, Xie Ling knocked him unconscious with a knife.
Xie Ling quickly took off her clothes, put them on herself, and learned to tie her hair into a similar bun. Then she stepped out of the room and walked out the door with her head lowered.
In the impression of those guards, Xie Ling is a real man.
So when Xie Ling went out, no one even looked at her.
The fire in the princess's mansion has now been completely extinguished.
The road leading to the Princess Palace was now empty.
Whether it was the coffin or the fainted monks, palace maids, and eunuchs, they all disappeared.
So the emperor clearly knew that Wei Linglong's body was missing, but he didn't find Wei Linglong's body first. Instead, he pretended not to know and continued to arrange the funeral. There must be something fishy going on!
Xie Ling's eyes turned cold, and after observing that there was no one around, she quickly entered the secret room.
There are soldiers on the top of the secret room over there, so you can only enter from this side.
This time when Xie Ling entered, she had an impression and quickly found Linglong's location.
Wei Linglong saw her coming and rushed over, asking worriedly, "How is it, A Ling? Is my uncle okay?"
Xie Ling shook her head. "It's alright for now, but there's no time to explain it to you. I can only tell you one thing. We have to leave the palace quickly, right now!"
Wei Linglong opened her eyes slightly, "Okay! But, but......"
She was a little embarrassed to speak, "Can you, can you give me a little time, I want to tell my brother about this?"
Xie Ling thought about it and realized that Wei Wuji was the crown prince, and with his help, it would definitely be easier for them to escape.
So he nodded and said, "Okay, give me a token. There is an exit in the Imperial Garden. I will lead him to meet him in the Imperial Garden."
Wei Linglong thought for a while, tore off a piece of clothing, folded it into the shape of a little rabbit, and took a necklace from her neck, "These two things will do. Don't worry, Xie Ling, I will be there quickly. If there is an emergency, our safety is the most important thing, and escaping quickly is the most important thing!"
Xie Ling nodded, took out the map, and led Linglong to the exit of the Imperial Garden.
"Just wait here for me, I'll pick you up when the time comes."
Wei Linglong explained, "Okay, Aling, my brother usually doesn't sleep in the palace. He handles government affairs in his study. His study is located in the west of the Princess Palace. It is very elegant. You can tell at a glance."
After Wei Linglong finished speaking, Xie Ling quickly left the secret room.
This royal secret room was built very well, with all the exits being hidden and sparsely populated, so there was no need to worry about being discovered.
Take the exit of the Imperial Garden for example, it is in a rockery behind a big tree.
The two rockery pieces can be pushed apart, and after going out, you press a mechanism and they slowly close together. With the shade of vegetation around them, you can't even tell there's a cave hidden there.
This secret room was probably built by a master of mechanical devices at the request of the Wei Emperor in order to avoid palace coups, which is why the current emperor cannot find it.
As for why the late emperor told only the King of Qi and the King of Yong, it was probably because he knew the character of the current emperor and was worried that he would murder them, so he left them a way out.
As Xie Ling was thinking, she had unknowingly arrived outside the prince's study.
But the light in the study was off.
The prince is not in the study, so where is he?
Xie Ling had a rough guess in her mind and turned around and walked straight towards Xianyin Pavilion.
Other people in the palace do not know yet that the princess's body has disappeared. Wei Wuji and Wei Linglong are siblings, and they are most likely mourning in Xianyin Pavilion at this moment.
Xianyin Pavilion is located at the easternmost part of the entire palace. Xie Ling quickened his pace and even used light skills.
This matter must be done before dawn, otherwise it will be difficult to escape after dawn.
Xianyin Pavilion.
There was a faint sound of Zen music and chanting. Layers of white gauze were blown up and down by the wind, occasionally revealing a heavy and ancient black coffin, and a young man in white clothes and a jade crown standing beside the coffin.
The cigarette smoke emitted wisps of white smoke, and the warm smell made people drowsy.
Wei Wuji's eyes were dark and he looked haggard, and his hands that were holding the coffin were shaking slightly.
He always thought that he was cold-hearted by nature and only cared about the government and the people of the world.
I have always been more strict than loving towards this little sister, and I often scold her until she cries.
But now, she was dead, and Wei Wuji realized belatedly that he was feeling an extreme sadness and a sense of emptiness in his heart.
I was supposed to be handling official business in the study tonight, but for some reason, the lights were turned off. When I came to my senses, I had already arrived at Xianyin Pavilion.
Wei Wuji sighed, "Linglong, I was too harsh on you in this life. If there is an afterlife, I will definitely love you well.
After a pause, Wei Wuji's tone turned cold, "You were in your prime, but you died suddenly. Don't worry, my brother will find out who murdered you and comfort your soul in heaven."
Amid the endless chanting, a voice that was difficult to tell whether male or female suddenly appeared.
"I know. If you want to know the truth, come to the small rock pond in the Imperial Garden."
"Who's talking?"
Wei Wuji's eyes flashed coldly, and he looked up suddenly, only to see the white gauze swaying in front of him. There was no figure, and there were two things on the ground.
He hurried over, and after seeing the object on the ground clearly, his handsome face instantly became unfathomable, and his long eyes were full of danger.
This is the origami rabbit he taught Linglong when they were young, and the necklace he put on her neck with his own hands.
Why are you here? !
