Chapter 439 If Only We Could Get Out
After the National Master Hall was built, the festive atmosphere in the palace became stronger and stronger, with lights and decorations everywhere, but not in the National Master Hall.
National Master Wen Renli said that the National Master Hall is a solemn and dignified place, and is also the place closest to the gods, and does not need these worldly decorations.
Little Tuanzi was always in a daze. Whenever she thought of the scene of her family buying New Year's goods last year, she couldn't help feeling sad.
That day, she really couldn't sit still, so she dragged Fuxing to find Yuan Baoyu, and then went to Yingcui Residence, which Jing had promised them.
Yingcui Ju is very remote and has a small yard, but it has become one of their favorite places.
Here, they can be free and no one will care how crazy or noisy they want.
"The streets must be very lively now." After playing tired, Li Suining, as the only one among them who had visited the New Year's goods fair, showed off his experience to them.
"Is it more lively than the palace?" Yuan Baoyu's eyes widened, his face full of curiosity.
He really knew nothing about the outside world.
"Of course." Little Dumpling said exaggeratedly, "The streets outside the palace must be packed with people right now. Everyone is carrying various things in their hands. The street stalls are next to each other. Everyone has to shout to be heard clearly."
Li Suining's description was vivid, but Yuan Baoyu didn't understand what he said. He couldn't imagine, could such a scene really happen?
After all, at this time, the palace was filled with people and carriages delivering New Year's goods and purchasing things, but the scene described by Li Suining would never happen.
His face was filled with longing, "If only we could get out."
He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yuan Xiaonian, "Second brother, have you ever seen a scene like this?"
"Not interested." Yuan Xiaonian said this, but in his heart he had seen the answer.
He had secretly run away from the palace. After all, no one cared even if the prince in the cold palace died, so he actually ran away often in the past.
"How come?" The little fat boy scratched his head in confusion, "I think it's fun outside."
He looked at Li Suining with longing, "It would be great if we could get out."
These words naturally touched Li Suining's heart.
She leaned over and whispered in Yuan Baoyu's ear, "I saw that there is also a dog hole behind Yingcui Residence that leads to the outside of the palace."
Yuan Baoyu's eyes widened in shock, "You want to sneak out of the palace?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Xiaonian and Fuxing both looked over. After all, this was not a trivial matter.
The little dumpling smiled awkwardly, "We've been here for so long, and no one has come to look for us, right? So, if we sneak out, we shouldn't be discovered."
Yuan Baoyu blinked his big eyes excitedly and subconsciously looked at Yuan Xiaonian again.
Soon, Li Suining also looked at Yuan Xiaonian. After all, among them, Yuan Xiaonian was the oldest and the older brother, so he should shoulder the responsibilities of an older brother.
Yuan Xiaonian frowned unhappily. He was not used to this and didn't even dare to look at the two children's dependent eyes. But when he thought about them jumping over the lake for him, he couldn't really be mean to them.
He thought about it and threw the trouble to Fuxing.
"Fuxing, can't you predict the future? If you nod, we'll go. If you shake your head," Yuan Xiaonian looked at Li Suining and Yuan Baoyu with a warning, "Don't try to cheat again."
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Fuxing at the same time.
Fuxing didn't react at first, and seemed like he didn't understand what Yuan Xiaonian said. Yuan Baoyu was anxious to explain it again.
"Sister Fuxing, we want to..."
However, before Yuan Baoyu could finish his words, he saw Fuxing slowly nodded.
Yuan Baoyu's eyes widened in shock, and he turned to Li Suining to confirm, "She nodded, right? Fuxing nodded, right?"
"That's great, we can leave the palace now, that's great." The little girl jumped and danced happily.
There was a smile in Yuan Xiaonian's eyes, but he still looked disgusted. He rolled his eyes at Fuxing and said, "I didn't expect you to join in the fun."
Fuxing was still sitting there quietly, but Li Suining knew that Sister Fuxing was as happy as she was at this moment.
Since they had decided to leave the palace, the little ones immediately got busy. Yuan Baoyu and Li Suining found the simplest clothes to change into, but the two little ones were fair and tender, and at first glance they were obviously the sons and daughters of wealthy families.
Fuxing was still wearing the same outfit, a black robe and a black hood. His face was not visible. He was thin and not very noticeable.
As for Yuan Xiaonian, after so many years in the cold palace, he has a lot of tattered clothes that he can put on casually without attracting attention.
Soon, everyone was ready, and Xiaotuanzi led them to find the dog hole.
Yuan Baoyu looked at the dog hole, then turned back to look at Yuan Xiaonian, "Second brother can't get out, right?"
"Don't worry about me, you guys..." Yuan Xiaonian felt a little bit unbearable to watch. If the Emperor of Jin knew that his fifth prince had actually carried him through a dog hole, he wondered what his expression would be.
He waved his hand, signaling them to hurry up.
"I'll go first." Little Dumpling said as he was about to lie on the ground, but Yuan Xiaonian grabbed him and lifted him up.
Then, Yuan Xiaonian pointed at Fuxing. After all, no one knew what the situation was outside the dog cave, and he couldn't let Li Suining and Yuan Baoyu go out and take risks first.
He whispered to Fuxing, "If you're out and there's no danger, knock on the wall."
Fuxing didn't say anything and went over to drill in.
Xiaotuanzi felt a little embarrassed, but she couldn't resist Yuan Xiaonian, so she could only say apologetically to Fuxing, "Sister Fuxing, don't be afraid, we will come to find you soon."
Fuxing nodded. She was not afraid, but rather a little excited.
She knelt on the ground. The dog hole was actually a little small for her, but fortunately she was thin, so although it was a bit difficult, she managed to crawl out successfully.
Xiaotuanzi and Yuan Baoyu squatted beside the dog hole and listened carefully to the sound.
"Beep, beep..." There was a knocking sound on the wall from the other side, indicating that it was safe.
The little dumpling quickly lay down, stuck out his little butt, and quickly crawled out of the dog hole.
There was a forest outside and not many people around. Although there was only a wall between them, she couldn't help but feel her heart beating much faster, like a bird escaping from a cage.
Soon, Yuan Baoyu also came out. He couldn't help but take a deep breath and said exaggeratedly, "Wow, the air outside feels different. I like it!"
Li Suining smiled at him.
Now only Yuan Xiaonian was left. The two little guys couldn't help but feel a little worried. They stared at the dog hole, but couldn't imagine how Yuan Xiaonian would get out of it.
However, Fuxing, who was standing behind the two of them, looked up at the high wall. Sure enough, Yuan Xiaonian soon appeared on the top of the wall, almost two people's high wall, but unexpectedly he jumped down.
"Second prince is so awesome." Little Dumpling couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Let's go!" Yuan Xiaonian was familiar with the process and walked in front to lead the way.
