Chapter 174 I wish you would leave

Ying Shiqi was still waiting outside the door. After the secret guards escorted all the people out, he took a quick look and then ordered the secret guards inside to close the door of the attic.

"Commander, where is the new prison set up by His Majesty? I have never heard His Majesty mention it." Shen Yu was standing at the end of the team. He heard the voice coming from the front and quietly turned his gaze over.

Almost all the members of the Dark Guards were death warriors. They rarely had independent thoughts and only followed orders. But not all of them were like this. Those who held high positions in the Dark Guards were all people who made decisions and had awareness. This was true for Mu Yuyi, and also for the Dark Guards deputy commander who had come forward to inquire.

"It's near the cold palace." Ying Shiqi said, "I took you there before, about 700 meters to the east."

The deputy commander paused when he heard that. He looked at Ying Shiqi. The intimidating look in Ying Shiqi's eyes beneath his mask was still there, as intense and difficult to deal with as before.

"Your Majesty, why did you suddenly move them away?" The deputy commander stood still and asked, "There are so many people on Chengyuan Mountain. If they all leave overnight, I'm afraid it will alarm others."

"Everyone in Kunning Palace is your Majesty's people. Are you questioning your Majesty's orders?" Ying Shiqi's tone sank. "Or do you want to disobey your Majesty's order?"

The deputy commander's face changed. He bowed and saluted, saying, "I dare not. I am just worried about the queen in Kunning Palace. She is crazy. If she hears the noise, I am afraid that she will disturb the peace of the palace..."

"Eunuch Li is taking blood right now, don't you know? Besides, the Queen is your Majesty's concubine, it's not your turn to care about her. What do you want to do to the Queen now?"

The deputy commander changed his tone immediately after hearing this: "Commander, that's not what I meant. It's just that His Majesty particularly values ​​these criminal slaves in Chengyuan Mountain. This incident happened suddenly, so I asked a few more questions."

Ying Shiqi looked at him coldly. Before the deputy commander finished speaking, he turned around and said impatiently to the secret guards, "Take them all away. Don't keep His Majesty waiting for too long."

The rest of the secret guards followed the order and moved forward. Shen Yu followed at the end of the team. When he passed by the deputy commander, he turned around and saw the deputy commander standing next to the wooden pillar of the attic. His body was stiff, but his eyes were secretly looking at the figure walking in front.

Shen Yu paused for a few moments, his palm quietly brushed across the deputy commander's arm, dropping all the white powder on his fingertips.

After finishing, Shen Yu continued to follow the team forward. He mixed in with the secret guards in front and fastened his mask a little tighter.

The deputy commander remained where he was, keeping his peripheral vision focused ahead. He did not stand up straight until Ying Shiqi led everyone down the stairs and their figures disappeared from his sight.

He was Xuan Lin's hidden stake beside Mu Yuyi, and Mu Yuyi's every word and action was under his surveillance. At the same time, he was also the one who had the most frequent contact with His Majesty during this period.

He had never heard His Majesty mention building a new prison. Moreover, rebuilding a prison was such a big project, even if it was close to the cold palace, it was impossible that there would be no news or noise.

The deputy commander frowned secretly. He stood in the corridor of the attic and looked down. He saw that the team below had already walked onto the iron chain bridge and was slowly moving out of the pond.

Not far away, the Kunning Palace was brightly lit, with orange-yellow lights flickering, and the howling sound of cold wind could be heard from time to time.

The deputy commander's eyebrows jumped suddenly. He secretly guessed that the situation was not good. He walked downstairs quickly and said coldly to the secret guards left behind: "Go and tell His Majesty what happened! The rest of you go down and hold them..."

Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt dizzy, his body was swaying, blood was flowing from his mouth and nose, his foot slipped, and he fell down the stairs.

Shen Yu vaguely heard the sound of collision coming from upstairs, but he pretended not to hear it. After leaving the attic, he quickly walked onto the iron chain bridge and walked out with the prisoners in front of him.

The people of Chengyuanshan were seriously injured and they were unable to walk across the iron chain. They had to rely on the secret guards to half push and half pull them across.

Ying Shiqi was the first to reach the pond. He waited for the secret guards to drag the prisoners over. He raised his eyes and clapped his hands, "Thanks for your hard work. Go and have a rest first."

The secret guards didn't know what Ying Shiqi meant yet. They heard a noise coming from behind them, turned around and saw Shen Yu raising his sword and cutting the iron chain behind him.

"Chief, you..."

The shadows mixed in among them seized the opportunity, they changed their positions silently, gathered strength in their arms and suddenly attacked, knocking out all the suspicious secret guards with one strike and throwing them aside.

"Mammy has already prepared the carriage, let's go first..." Ying Shiqi glanced at the situation on the ground, turned around, calculated the time, and urged the people next to him to go first.

"Don't move!"

A voice suddenly sounded, so hoarse that one could not even make out the specifics. Ying Shiqi paused and looked back to the side.

A female prisoner who had just come out of the attic suddenly jumped up. She stole a dagger from somewhere, put it against Shen Yu's neck, and took two steps back, "Don't move."

Ying Shiqi pulled the corner of his lip: "What's wrong with you?"

"Don't come over here, or I'll kill him." The female prisoner took two steps back and stood still. She kept coughing, and her eyes were even colder.

Shen Yu did not resist. He seemed to have expected this and said calmly, "What do you want to do?"

"Senior Sister Lingyun, don't..."

"We can't do this now... Senior Sister..."

The prisoners standing by suddenly turned pale when they saw this. They were about to step forward, but as soon as they moved, the shadow pushed them to the side with a dagger.

Ling Yun bit the flesh on the inside of her mouth, her eyes were dry, as if she hadn't seen the scene in front of her: "You can go with them, I won't go."

Shen Yu did not say anything after hearing this. Ling Yun's knuckles turned pale. She looked at the dark forest in the distance and said, "I want to see the queen."

Shen Yu raised the corner of his lips: "The Queen is of noble status, you are probably not qualified to see him."

"Fuck your queen! He is my junior fellow apprentice! How dare you humiliate him like this..." Ling Yun's voice trembled. She tightly grasped the dagger in her hand and said, "I want to take him with me today. If you don't want to, then let me go. I will go by myself and will not involve you. If you are willing..."

Shen Yu's eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Sorry, I don't want to." Ying Shiqi interrupted her and winked at Shen Yu. "Also, we rescued you with great effort, and you can't just leave now. Do you know what will happen to you if you do this?"

Ling Yun's face turned pale. She was about to retreat when suddenly a cold light flashed before her eyes. Her wrist felt a sharp pain and she suddenly lost strength.

Shen Yu picked up the dagger she dropped on the ground, turned his eyes to Ling Yun, and said, "I can promise you to rescue him, but the premise is that you have to listen to us. Otherwise... I will not let the person in Kunning Palace have a chance to come out alive."

Ling Yun's lips were completely bloodless. She stood up with the help of the huge rock beside her, but was held down again by the shadow that came forward.

The shadow of the photo studio was everywhere. They had received clear orders to kill Wen Yu. There was no way Shen Yu would tell Ling Yun about Wen Yu's whereabouts in front of them.

Shen Yu said nothing more. He walked forward and headed out of the palace according to the route planned previously.
