Chapter 109: Rescuing People and Escaping with the Concubine
Uh... surprisingly, the most crucial person is missing, Mu Fengyi! What the hell is she doing!? Why isn't she here?
Mo Chen was careful and carefully hid on the eaves of the city, observing what was going on below. It didn't matter to him, he would take a look first before talking.
…
Zhong Junzuo accompanied Yun Fei as he walked quickly through the lengthy Tianlao corridor. There was no obstruction along the way, and no one dared to block it.
"See Concubine Yun, Master Zhong!" All the guards in Tianlao Guard knelt down and knelt down before the leader of a prison guard on the ground. "I wonder what Concubine Yun and Master Zhong are doing late at night?"
Concubine Yun smiled coldly and said nothing. She just glanced sideways at Zhong Junzuo next to her with her phoenix eyes, and the other party nodded tacitly.
"We are following the emperor's decree to interrogate Mo Qing, a prisoner of war in the Eastern Qin Dynasty!" Zhong Jun said loudly.
The prison warden leader wondered, "Does Mr. Zhong have an imperial edict?" He was asked to be interrogated in the middle of the night? Is there any mistake? Could it be that the emperor couldn't sleep and had nothing to do!
"It's the emperor's decree," Concubine Yun said coldly.
The leader of the prison warden hesitated, then changed his stance and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Yun, this is a repeat offender. Without the imperial edict signed by the Emperor, I dare not let you go lightly. Please don't embarrass me."
"Bold!!" Zhong Junzuo shouted, raising sword eyebrows on his handsome face, and took a step forward, "You, a little prison warden, how dare you speak to the empress like this, I don't want to live anymore!" Then he became threatening,
Clenching her fists with both hands, she said, "Your Majesty, you are summoned by the Emperor's personal order to come to interrogation overnight. If you delay the interrogation of the Emperor, you won't be able to chop off your heads!"
The prison warden's words made the prison warden's sweat glands break out, and he replied repeatedly, "Yes, yes..."
"Okay, let him go quickly! We have to rush back!" Concubine Yun showed a slightly disgusted expression.
"Let him go immediately!" Then the prison warden personally walked to Mo Qing's cell door, took out the key, and opened the cell door.
"Get up! Follow me to see the emperor!" Zhong Junzuo said and stretched out his hand to pull Mo Qing's elbow.
Mo Qing slapped his arm hard, "Humph! Just right! This general has long been tired of living!"
All this fell into the eyes of Li Zhong in the cell opposite. He saw that every move of Concubine Yun and Zhong Junzuo was quite strange. Why did the two of them issue an order to interrogate Mo Qing when they arrived, but ignored him?
Isn't it strange not to ask?
"Concubine Yun?!" Li Zhong suddenly shouted
Concubine Yun turned around, looked at Li Zhong, and gave him a forced smile, "Brother, if you bear with me a little longer, my sister will definitely find a way to convince the emperor."
At the moment Concubine Yun turned her head, Li Zhong suddenly said, "Mei Yun, don't hurt yourself."
Concubine Yun was moved after hearing this, and nodded behind her back, "Yeah" and then asked Zhong Junzuo's bodyguard to escort Mo Qing, and the group of people quickly walked through the long and narrow passage and walked out of the prison.
Outside the Heavenly Prison, the moon is hanging high, and a lonely and magnificent layer of haze is sprinkled on the eaves of the imperial city. It is the time of the third watch.
The man in black hiding in the corner of the eaves was shocked when he saw a man in prison uniform being escorted by the group of people. Who else could it be if it wasn't his brother who always worried him?
Faintly, Mo Chen drew out the sword from his waist. The cold light of the moonlight shone on the sword, reflecting into the depths of his eyes, streaking through streaks of biting and cold Glauber's salt...
The team walked for another distance and suddenly stopped
"Okay, you all stand down! I and Mr. Zhong can stay here. The emperor will come to interrogate you in person!" Concubine Yun said contemptuously, waving her slim arms gracefully.
"It's the slaves who are resigning!"
"You guys also stand down!" Zhong Jun looked at the guards beside him and frowned slightly.
"This..." A guard was a little confused.
"I'm here, there's nothing to worry about, get out!" Zhong Junzuo said sharply.
"Yes!" All the guards immediately followed suit and retreated.
In the quiet corner, only Concubine Yun, Zhong Junzuo, and Mo Qing were left.
Mo Qing snorted coldly and arrogantly, "Call that dog emperor of yours out! I, Mo Qing, will never surrender even if I die. I'll tell him to give up his heart!!"
Zhong Junzhong walked towards him, expressionlessly grabbed the chain in his hand, pulled out the sword, and cut it off with a bang. Mo Qing was stunned for a while, and then cut it off with another bang.
anklet
Mo Qing looked down on them in every possible way, "Who are you? Why do you want to save me?"
Zhong Junzuo had a cold expression on his face and did not answer. He looked contemptuously at Concubine Yun who was aside and said calmly, "Now that you have decided, don't regret it!"
"I won't regret it! What about you?" Concubine Yun looked at Zhong Junzuo with her clear eyes.
Zhong Junzuo shook his head slowly, his eyes full of tenderness, and then he took out a package from a rockery and threw it to Mo Qing, "Hurry up and put it on, I will take you out of the city!"
"Uh..." Mo Qing was stunned. What does this mean? Aren't they under the orders of the Emperor of Nanbang? Looking at the expressions of the two of them, there was a vague affection. Needless to say, the relationship between the two is extraordinary.
"Speak clearly, otherwise I won't leave," Mo Qing replied stubbornly.
Concubine Yun said anxiously, "If you don't believe me, I have no choice. This is the only thing I can do to promise her."
"Who? Whose fate do you accept?" Mo Qing asked nervously
Concubine Yun looked at him in confusion, "Mu Fengyi, you should know that it was she who asked us to rescue you."
"Oh..." Mo Qing suddenly realized, then his eyes lit up and he said, "Where is she? I want to see her..."
"Stop dreaming. She is the emperor's concubine now. She will get married in a few days. No one can get close to her easily, let alone you!" Concubine Yun couldn't help but sarcastically said, looking at the man in front of her with a shaggy beard.
Huidi, as decadent as you want to be
"Wedding?" Mo Qing murmured in confusion.
"Hurry up and change your clothes, time is running out," urged Zhong Junzuo on the side.
Mo Qing could no longer think too much, so he quickly put on the guard's clothes and the guard's hat.
The three of them were hurriedly walking through several winding roads in the imperial city when they suddenly bumped into the patrolling Imperial Forest Army in front of them. The general leading the night patrol happened to be Chen Bing
"I see you, Imperial Concubine Yun!" Chen Bing bowed his fist and saluted.
"Master Chen, no courtesy," Concubine Yun said in a genuine voice, pretending to be calm in her heart.
"Your Majesty, you are still not resting at this late hour?" Chen Bing looked at Concubine Yun suspiciously and glanced sideways at the other two people beside her.
"I can't sleep, why don't you just come out for a walk!" Concubine Yun gave a random reason and then changed the topic, "Master Chen even came to watch the night in person. This is really rare!"
"There have been assassins in the palace recently! Your Majesty has taken special orders to strengthen the security of the palace. Your Majesty, you should bring more people when you leave Yunyang Palace..." Chen Bing looked at the guard next to Zhong Jun who kept his head lowered.
Face, I can’t see clearly.
"Master Chen is overly worried. Isn't it enough for Concubine Yun to be protected by me?" Zhong Junzuo replied with some displeasure. He was only the commander of the Royal Forest Army, so why should he question Concubine Yun?
"Okay, okay, let's not delay Mr. Chen's official business. General Zhong, let's go and accompany me to go over there." Concubine Yun said with a slight irritation, her phoenix eyes raised proudly.
Chen Bing could only clasp his fists and say, "I respectfully send you to Concubine Yun."
Concubine Yun took Zhong Junzuo and Mo Qing and continued towards the east. After bypassing the east and then heading west, they could reach the west gate of the imperial city.
And the person on the eaves also followed him and walked away diagonally on the eaves of the imperial city. Mo Chen already knew in his heart that these two people must have been entrusted by Mu Fengyi to rescue Mo Qing. The west gate they were going to was also.
It was the location that he had agreed upon with Mu Fengyi in advance. In order to save Mo Qing, he had carefully mapped out the route between the Imperial City and the Heavenly Prison.
Just to make sure, it's better for him not to show up for now
I saw the three of them stopped at an intersection
Concubine Yun turned around and looked at Zhong Junzuo, tears streaming down her beautiful face suddenly, "Junzuo, I can't see you off anymore. After you send him out of the city,... don't come back."
Zhong Junzuo was horrified after hearing this, "What did you say, Yun'er, didn't you agree to go with me?"
Concubine Yun slowly shook her head, "I can't leave, my brother is still in prison, but you don't have to worry, the emperor won't do anything to me. After all, our Li family is a veteran of three dynasties and has roots in Nanbang.
There are other ministers in the court, and he would not dare to touch me so easily."
"But, Yun'er, the more you say this, the more worried I am..." Zhong Junzuo's handsome face looked dark.
"Okay, don't waste time, send General Mo out of the city quickly!" Concubine Yun urged.
Mo Qing remained silent on the sidelines. Seeing the two of them showing sincere affection, it was truly a sincere and deep affection rare between men and women in the world, and he couldn't help but feel faintly moved.
Just when he was about to say something, suddenly, a voice not far away shouted, "Stop them quickly!!"
Then a large number of imperial guards lit torches and surrounded us.
The three of them were all shocked when they saw it
"Hurry up!" Concubine Yun quickly pushed Zhong Jun forward.
"No, I want you to come with me!!" Zhong Junzuo said resolutely, holding Concubine Yun's hand and running towards the west gate, while glancing at Mo Qing next to him with his peripheral vision, "Mo
General, can you fight? There is no other way now but to fight!"
Mo Qing smiled slightly, "Don't worry, I can take care of myself, but you must save your sweetheart!"
Zhong Junzuo didn't answer, but smiled tacitly and pulled Concubine Yun forward quickly.
After running for a while, Concubine Yun was out of breath and her face was red, "I, I, I can't..."
"Yun'er, just hold on, we'll be at the west gate soon!" Zhong Junzuo said as he continued to run forward with her.
Suddenly, her feet stumbled. Concubine Yun's steps were unsteady and she fell to the ground. "Jun Zuo, go quickly. Don't mind me. Leave me alone. Go quickly~~~" Seeing that the people behind her were about to catch up.
"No, how can I leave you! I promised you that we will live together and die together!" Zhong Jun's left face sank, and he immediately picked up Concubine Yun and continued to run forward. At this time, he was carrying someone with him, and he was so fast.
It also slowed down
Just as they were approaching the west gate of the imperial city, they were unexpectedly intercepted by the imperial guards stationed on the other side. The person leading the team was none other than Chu Huan. Seeing that Zhong Junzuo had the gall to hold the imperial concubine and run wildly late at night, he immediately stepped forward.
