Chapter 370 Leaving Liang Yusong
At the same time, Xuanying had already reunited with Su Shaodong.
The two people studied the map for a long time, but didn't know which one to choose.
In the dense forest behind Ziyun Temple, Xuanying's fingertips were anxiously moving across the map, and the parchment made a rustling sound.
Su Shaodong squatted on a stone nearby, his brows furrowed, staring at the spider-web-like secret passage mark on the map.
"This Ziyun Temple is built like a maze," Su Shaodong punched the stone surface, "There are four secret passages in the east, south, west and north, each leading to a different direction. The little beauty has been taken in for two hours. If we delay any further..."
Xuanying was also anxious. The Second Prince and his men had already arrived, and they would probably not stay in Ziyun Temple. If they did not find the secret passage, they might lose track of the Crown Prince's wife.
"We can't delay any longer. Su Shaodong, you choose one, I choose another, and we will act separately."
Just then, both of them heard the noise.
There was the sound of hurried horse hooves in the distance, and Sun Huanzhi rode over. "How is it?"
He reined in his horse and jumped off, looking anxious.
Xuanying told him the situation. Sun Huanzhi took the map and looked at it carefully.
"Although Haining was brought out blindfolded, she had a very good sense of direction. She said that she was probably imprisoned in the southeast side of Ziyun Temple."
Xuanying's eyes flashed, and he poked his finger heavily at the southeast corner of the map: "This secret passage should lead to where Miss Sun is imprisoned."
Su Shaodong also agreed, "It must be good."
Sun Huanzhi said: "Even so, I can't be 100% sure. We will divide our troops into three groups. The one in the southeast..."
"I'll go."
"I'm responsible."
Su Shaodong and Xuanying spoke at the same time. Sun Huanzhi's heart choked and he didn't even have a chance to speak.
He was silent for a moment, then pointed to the exit of a secret passage in the west: "I'll go here."
In the end, Su Shaodong was unable to defeat Xuanying, so he was responsible for the secret passage in the southeast direction.
Su Shaodong: "I'm going to the North Road."
The three of them jumped on their horses at the same time, looked at each other, and then rode away in different directions.

At this time, the torches in the secret passage flickered, and the medicine in Yuan Wanru's hand had gradually dissipated.
This place is closed all year round, the air is not circulating, and the smell is a bit unpleasant. Yuan Wanru's medicine floating in it does not seem abrupt.
Murong Xiao and Liang Yusong were both walking in front of the team. Liang Yusong's complaints echoed between the stone walls: "Cousin, haven't we arrived yet? How long is this damn place?"
She was really tired.
Murong Xiao walked in the front, the firelight made half of his face look uncertain: "
Lu'e suddenly turned around and sniffed suspiciously: "Do you smell a strange smell?"
Yuan Wanru's heart tightened. She didn't expect that Lu'e's nose was so sensitive.
She didn't say anything, but Liang Yusong said impatiently: "This damn place always smells bad."
Before Lu'e could say anything else, she heard someone shout, "The exit is just ahead."
Liang Yusong looked forward excitedly, and sure enough, there was light, "Finally we have reached the end."
Yuan Wanru calculated the time and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Yes, the end of your life is really approaching.
They left the secret passage one after another. Yuan Wanru squinted her eyes and adjusted to the light outside. Liang Yusong came out earlier than her. Seeing that she was intact, he felt a little choked up.
Yuan Wanru came back to her senses, met her hateful gaze, and smiled sweetly: "I really envy you, this face never sees the sun, it must be very fair and tender now."
It's simply a naked provocation.
Why can’t Liang Yusong see the sun? Isn’t it because of her?
"Yuan Wanru!"
She walked over and raised her hand to slap him, but was slapped back by the other party, causing his head to turn away. The crisp sound of the slap startled the birds in the woods.
Lu'e quickly stepped over to protect Liang Yusong. Liang Yusong angrily ordered: "Lu'e, teach her a lesson."
Lu'e flashed forward, her fingertips flashing with cold light. Yuan Wanru did not retreat but advanced, pushing her neck towards the dagger: "Come on, cut deeper. I just don't know if the Second Prince will not take this poison. Who else can cure it except me?"
She deliberately emphasized the word "impotent", and Murong Xiao's face immediately turned pale.
"Stop it!" Murong Xiao grabbed Lu'e's wrist and turned to Yuan Wanru with murderous intent in his eyes, "Yuan Wanru, don't push your luck. Don't forget that you still have family in Nanjiang County."
He suddenly sneered, "I can't touch the Lu family, but can't I kill a few lowly people?"
Yuan Wanru's pupils suddenly shrank.
It is indeed extremely despicable and has no bottom line.
"Okay, I can detoxify you now."
"The condition is that you kill Liang Yusong immediately."
Liang Yusong staggered back upon hearing this, but was tripped by the gravel.
She looked up at Murong Xiao, her nails painted with nail polish dug deep into the dirt: "Cousin, you won't..."
Before he finished speaking, Murong Xiao's sword had already been unsheathed, pointing at Yuan Wanru: "Don't be so presumptuous, stop playing tricks, and follow us immediately."
At this moment, Xuanying and the others suddenly jumped out.
Murong Xiao didn't expect that there was an ambush here, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.
As a result, when the people on Murong Xiao's side started to practice their skills, they discovered that something was wrong. Their qi and blood were actually flowing backwards.
"We're poisoned!"
"How on earth did he get poisoned?!"
Xuanying and his men started a killing spree. Murong Xiao's men had been drugged by Yuan Wanru and were no match for them. Soon, only three or four of Murong Xiao's trusted men were left.
Murong Xiao's heart was in turmoil. He looked at Yuan Wanru with a pair of sharp eyes: "It's you."
Yuan Wanru smiled faintly: "It's me, don't you want to arrest me?"
"I delivered myself to your door, and you couldn't catch me. You are so incompetent."
Murong Xiao was so angry that his face turned green. Lu'e had clearly searched her body just now, so when did she poison her?
This woman's methods were so powerful that he was careless.
"Your Highness, please leave!"
Although they wanted to fight to the end, the situation was pressing and they had absolutely no chance of winning.
Xuan Ying was already standing beside Yuan Wanru. Murong Xiao knew that he was destined not to catch Yuan Wanru today.
"I just don't believe you dare to kill me. I'm a prince!"
Yuan Wanru nodded: "Indeed, I don't intend to kill you, Second Prince, you can go, Liang Yusong stays, how about that?"
"cousin!"
Liang Yusong was scared. Would her cousin choose her again this time?
She wasn't sure.
Murong Xiao looked at her with difficulty: "If you don't believe me, I won't let my cousin stay alone."
Yuan Wanru sneered: "Okay, since the Second Prince is so loyal and righteous, then I can only take the risk."
"This is a remote place. Even if you die, who can suspect me?"
"Since the Second Prince is determined to die, I will take a big gamble and send both of you to hell."
"Xuanying, take action."
