Chapter 393 Squatting is rare

Han Dongwen has a palace in Haizhou.

To be precise, the owner of this palace was Wenjun's father Jingzong. The palace was built a long time ago. Since Zhong Sheng lost his army in Haizhou, Han Dongwen has never had the opportunity to go there.

Nowadays, it seems that the location of this palace is far away from the most prosperous place in Haizhou. It is more like a remote resort mountain villa, located in the back mountain of the headquarters of Haizhou National Army Division.

If His Highness comes to Haizhou in person, he is more likely to live directly in the more luxurious National Military Division headquarters than in this palace.

But obviously Yang Churan has no such plan.

Tonight, Zhong Lilin and Xiao Hong were placed in the palace on the hill behind the Jingbu headquarters.

Compared to the so-called palace, this place seemed more like a poorly maintained back garden of the headquarters of the National Army Division. You could actually see fallen leaves and dead branches wherever you could see.

"It's time to clean these courtyards, and these pillars haven't been repaired for who knows how long."

Little Hongdou stood in front of the pavilion, looking around with worried eyes:

"Also...I don't know anything else, but aren't there not enough people to guard the night watch? Let's take note of this too..."

Yi Chengcheng, who was following Xiaohongdou, smiled and nodded: "Okay, okay, I've written this down too - Sister Xiaohongdou, I thought we were having fun together this time, why are you worried?"

Do you have more things to do than Empress Mi?"

Xiao Hongdou sighed and turned to look at Yi Chengcheng:

"Since we have a job in hand, we should do it well, otherwise..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the sound of footsteps behind her.

The two palace maids looked back and discovered that it was Zhong Lilin who was walking towards the atrium with a jade flute in his hand.

"I've seen you, Mr. Pavilion Supervisor." The two of them lowered their heads and curtsied in unison.

"I thought there was no one here, and I was planning to play a few songs. Why, what are you doing here without taking a rest at such a late hour?"

Zhong Lilin said with a smile.

Xiao Hongdou told her what His Highness had asked her to do. Unexpectedly, Zhong Lilin laughed twice after hearing this, and looked helplessly at the thick notebooks in the hands of Xiao Hongdou and Yi Chengcheng.

"Don't you know that Your Highness is here just to relax and have some fun? Take a good rest when you need to. Why are you so tired?"

After hearing what Zhong Lilin said, Yi Chengcheng nodded frantically and said:

"That's right, Sister Hongdou, you are almost becoming the most popular person in Yingchun Palace now, there is no need to be so dedicated, right?"

"What is red or not? Yingchun Palace taught you this?" Xiao Hongdou pretended to be angry and glared at her.

Yi Chengcheng stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "The most important thing that Yingchun Palace taught me is to take advantage of the situation even when you have time off! Even His Highness dotes on my sister, why are you still so tired? Besides, the work we do is also very difficult.

It’s not an important matter, right?”

Xiao Hongdou looked at Yi Chengcheng and Zhong Lilin, who were all smiling, and sighed in frustration.

"Oh, I...why didn't I know that these things don't matter?"

Xiao Hongdou looked at the notes in Yi Chengcheng's hand, and her tone became sad: "Your Highness has more and more things to do, and he is getting busier and busier. He often spends the whole night reading and reading, and he can't rest for long during the day. I

But I can only take note of the height of the steps, and if I can help His Highness with something else..."

Her voice gradually became softer.

"It would be great if... I could help with other things..."

Perhaps she also knew that this was a matter reserved for palace maids. If she worried about it, she would inevitably be suspected of overstepping her bounds, so she did not say anything.

Fortunately, neither Zhong Lilin nor Yi Chengcheng were unfamiliar with Xiaohongdou. They looked at each other and laughed helplessly.

"go back!"

A stern voice suddenly pierced the quiet night sky.

The three of them were stunned, and immediately turned their heads to look at the source of the sound - which was the main entrance of the palace.

There should be soldiers from the National War Department guarding the place. During the day, the officers and soldiers of the resting department would be on duty, and at night, the officers and soldiers of the attacking department would be on duty.

"What's wrong?" Yi Chengcheng was a little scared.

The sounds coming from that direction are getting louder and louder. They sound quite chaotic and noisy. Once you hear it, you can tell that the number of people is definitely not small.

Zhong Lilin's expression suddenly became serious, and he raised his hand to stop the two palace maids behind him:

"Don't come forward, I'll go take a look."

After he finished speaking, he quickly walked forward. Yi Chengcheng and Xiao Hongdou, who were standing there, looked at each other, gently lifted up their skirts, and followed Zhong Lilin seven or eight steps behind.

The source of the noise was getting closer and closer, and one could already see that the night sky above the main entrance was lit up like day by torches.

Crowds, hundreds of thousands of people!

More than a dozen guards stood in front of the people who were holding torches and about to enter the palace. The swords in their hands were already unsheathed as warnings, but they still seemed unable to stop the crowd from moving forward.

"I want to see the director!"

"Give me a look at Souji!"

"Souji! I'm coming!"

Among the chaotic shouts, Zhong Lilin vaguely heard these words.

Director General?

What director general?

He glanced at the guard guarding the door again, and suddenly took a breath of fear.

Where are those guards?

Those who guard the palace gates should always be elite soldiers with a force of one hundred, and the threshold for selection among the rest of the army is to start with a hundred cavalry generals.

But the people guarding the palace gate at this moment are not the hundreds of cavalry generals who should be here at all, but a dozen or so ordinary disciples wearing Daqimen clothes!

"Lord Supervisor, what's wrong?"

Xiaohongdou and Yi Chengcheng rushed over and asked anxiously.

Zhong Lilin frowned:

"It seems like strangers, they want to rush into the palace!"

"Alien? Why?"

Xiao Hongdou was startled and hurriedly listened carefully to the crowd's shouts. After understanding the words they were clamoring to see the chief, she said in confusion: "What chief? What do they want to do?"

Zhong Lilin shook his head: "I don't know. Maybe there was a mistake somewhere, and people mistook me, the cabinet supervisor, for the chief minister of the National Military Department."

He looked back and his expression became more serious: "Damn it, these Daqi Sect disciples are simply not good enough to stop so many strangers. Hurry up and hide back in the palace!"

"us……"

Yi Chengcheng was still hesitating. Xiao Hongdou split her wrist and grabbed it in her hand. She raised her head and asked Zhong Lilin: "What about you, Mr. Pavilion Superintendent?"

Zhong Lilin gritted his teeth: "I'll try to negotiate with them and see what they want to do. Anyway, you hide first... No, you go out directly from the south gate of the Li Palace. Our Xiube guards are stationed at the Jingbu headquarters tonight.

, run towards the Jingbu headquarters!"

To run from the south gate of the Imperial Palace to the Jingbu General Camp, you have to pass through the back mountain of the entire main camp.

"Master Supervisor, you..."

"Master Zhong, you must also be careful!"

Yi Chengcheng wanted to say something, but Xiao Hongdou had already grabbed her arm, and after saying goodbye to Zhong Lilin, he pulled her and ran towards the palace.

"Sister Hongdou?"

Yi Chengcheng asked in surprise: "We just ran away and left Mr. Zhong where?"

Little Hongdou stared straight ahead without even turning her head:

"If we are asked to guard, we must not give in no matter what, but if we cannot help, we must be smart and not become a drag!"

A strand of hair at the temples hung down from her jade-like cheeks, flying in the cold wind of the night sky as she ran quickly.
