"Brother, leave the second half of the night to us." Ji Chuan brought thirty palace soldiers to the pavilion in the center of the lake to change shifts.
Ji Yun looked up at the dark night sky and said, "It's getting colder and colder. Even the stars are not out. Brother Chuan, you must not let your guard down in the second half of the night."
"Brother, don't worry, the brothers will definitely be fully alert."
After Ji Yun and his men left, Ji Chuan looked around the lake and told his brothers to cheer up. He then lay down comfortably in the small wooden house next to the iron gate and took a nap.
Soon, all the soldiers guarding the pavilion in the middle of the lake fell down and fell into a deep sleep.
Duan Yuzhuo walked out from the darkness and kicked Ji Chuan, "Hey, wake up."
Sleep so soundly!
One step down is really powerful.
“Gu…Gu…Gu…Gu…”
"Eldest sister, you can go out now."
Baili Qingluan walked to the bed, rolled up the quilt and placed it on the pillow, then covered it with the quilt and stuffed the four black irons into the quilt.
Baili Xuanlang raised his eyebrows when he saw this. His elder sister was still the same as she was eight years ago, with a lot of clever ideas.
"You can go now, Langlang."
The brother and sister climbed up the skylight and used their lightness skills to get ashore.
"Meet the Princess..."
"No need to be polite, just retreat first!"
After an unknown amount of time, Ji Chuan opened his eyes and saw the sky was getting slightly brighter. He was so scared that he quickly jumped up from the hard wooden bed. How did he fall asleep?
When the guards saw their boss coming out of the wooden house, they all fell silent, fearing that the boss would discover that they were slacking off and taking a nap.
Seeing this, Ji Chuan breathed a sigh of relief. "Brothers, thank you for your hard work. It's only half an hour before our shift changes and it's time for lunch."
At the same time, Nanny Liang opened her eyes, lifted the quilt, stood up, and a purse slipped from her chest.
"This is?"
Nanny Liang subconsciously opened her purse and found ten silver bills inside. She was so scared that she quickly stuffed them into her bedding.
Worried that someone would frame her for stealing, she took out her purse.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was not very bright and there was no one around, he wrapped the money bag in oil paper and temporarily buried it under the peach tree in the yard.
Nanny Liang went to the kitchen to get hot water with a nervous heart and took away four large meat patties.
Nanny Liang has been doing this for many years and it is difficult for people to find out.
After Qingtao and Lvliu prepared toiletries for Baili Qingluan, they set off for the dungeon in the middle of the lake.
At this time, the guards of the Lakeside Pavilion had changed teams. Ji Yun saw Nanny Liang and others coming and opened the iron gate one by one.
After opening the innermost iron door, Ji Yun retreated politely.
Nanny Liang knocked on the door and said softly, "Madam, we are here."
Not getting a response, Nanny Liang stood on tiptoe to take a look inside.
Seeing that Baili Qingluan covered her head with the quilt, it seemed that she caught a cold again last night.
"Mammy, is the Madam awake?" Lvliu asked in a low voice.
"Let's wait for a moment."
A quarter of an hour later, there was no movement in the room. Lvliu became a little impatient. "Mammy, let's go in quickly. It's been so long. Could it be that Madam has caught a cold?"
Nanny Liang was startled, then burst through the door and said, "Madam, we're coming in."
"lady."
Nanny Liang walked forward and gently lifted the quilt, then quickly covered it again.
"Mammy, what's wrong with the lady?"
Qing Tao saw that Nanny Liang looked panicked and asked, "Did Madam faint?"
The princess should have been rescued by her family, but how did the lady escape?
Could it be that the banknote was given by the princess before she left?
Nanny Liang couldn't believe it, and her eyes suddenly turned red, not sure whether she was happy or sad.
"Mammy, what happened to Madam? Don't scare me," Qingtao said anxiously.
Nanny Liang choked up and said, "Madam...she...she is gone."
Lu Liu was overjoyed, thinking that he was finally dead. She quickly stepped forward and pulled back the quilt with force, and her smile froze instantly.
“The lady is missing!”
Lvliu's scream broke the peace in the Song Mansion!
“Whoosh!”
Ji Yun reacted promptly and fired three flares in succession.
Soon, the Song family military camp outside the city launched a signal flare.
Signal flares sounded like bongos, one after another over the four routes leading to Xirong.
At this time, Baili Qingluan and her brother had already left the city and were having breakfast on a narrow path a hundred kilometers away from Beiyi Capital.
"Eldest sister, the Song family has discovered us." Baili Xuanlang frowned as he looked at the flares in the distance. "I didn't expect Song Heng's arrangements to be so thorough. It would be difficult for us to escape if we took any of those four routes."
Baili Qingluan wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and put on half of the phoenix feather mask. "We have to leave quickly. Song Heng, that old fox, has realized that this road south is not safe either. We have to rush to Longcheng as soon as possible."
Song Heng came back from court and rushed to the pavilion in the middle of the lake. "What are you still doing here?"
Seeing Song Linyuan sitting on Baili Qingluan's couch in a daze, Song Heng angrily pulled him up and said, "This is all your fault. Go find your son!"
Now only the grandson can control the situation
"...Otherwise, our Song family will truly be destroyed! Did you hear that? Go find your son yourself!"
Song Linyuan seemed not to hear Song Heng's voice, muttering to himself: "Qingluan left, really left... left..."
"you--"
Song Heng was so angry that he reached out to slap him, but Song Linxiao stopped him in time and sent someone to send Song Linyuan back to the third room.
"Dad, the ends of these four black iron chains are so neatly cut. Only Baili Qingluan in her prime could achieve that. I didn't expect that the medicine I gave her to soak her feet these past few days would actually backfire and restore her internal strength... Now that she has no children by her side, she's free to do anything. Even if we catch up to her, we're no match for her. This time, the Western Rong will definitely send troops to attack..."
