Su Xuening stood there, watching the heavy gates of the Cold Palace open and close again. She weakly moved to the edge of the dry well and slowly sat down on its edge.
She stared blankly at the silver needle in her hand. If Xuan Yuan Yu had really dared to do something indecent to her just now, she would have killed him without hesitation!
However, she was already Xuan Yuanzhan's woman, which meant she was impure to Xuan Yuanyu.
In his past life, Xuan Yuan Yu would have disdained to touch her, but she was an obsession for him, so even if he didn't touch her, he wouldn't let her go.
She spent her entire previous life in this cold palace, and in this life, she absolutely cannot die in this cold palace again.
Her master and the others should come to save her, but she doesn't want her master to enter the palace to save her.
In his past life, his master was ambushed and shot dead by the Imperial Guards while trying to save him in the palace.
In the end, there wasn't even anyone left to collect his body!
Therefore, she had to find a way to leave the palace to prevent her master from entering to rescue people.
...
Late at night, in the prison.
Pei Luo and the other two worked together to infiltrate the prison.
Deep inside the women's prison, the three found Bai Shi.
"White girl."
Pei Luo called out to Bai Shi in a low voice, and then used his strength to break the lock on the cell.
Bai immediately ran out of the cell: "Uncle-Master, Doctor Luo, Ning'er has been taken into the palace by them."
"What?" Pei Luo was startled and immediately became worried about Su Xuening's condition: "Here's what we'll do, you two take her back to the bamboo forest first, and I'll go to the palace to rescue the girl."
Youyi frowned and said, "Are you sure you can handle it? Or I can go with you."
The palace is much more heavily guarded than this prison.
Will it be dangerous for him to go alone?
Pei Luo glanced at him and said, "Forget it, Lu Shao doesn't know the way. You should stay and lead the way for him."
If Lu Shao and Bai Yatou were left behind, the two of them would probably still be wandering around this prison until midnight.
Dao Yi looked ashamed upon hearing this.
Youyi glanced at Daoyi and suggested, "Why don't you take him with you into the palace to rescue people?"
Although Lu Shao has no sense of direction, he is very skilled in martial arts. With Lu Shao by your side, the two can keep each other company if they encounter danger.
Pei Luo thought for a moment, then shook her head: "Forget it, with his terrible sense of direction, I would have to lead him every step of the way. It's more convenient for me to move around."
All they know right now is that the girl is in the palace, but they haven't figured out which palace she's in yet.
The palace is so big, he has a lot to look for. With Lu Shao by his side, he also has to take care of Lu Shao, which makes him less able to act freely.
"I'll go out first and lure them away, then you can go out and head straight back to the bamboo forest," Pei Luo instructed before leaving.
Once outside, Pei Luo deliberately revealed himself, alarming all the prison guards, who all went after him.
With Pei Luo distracting the prison guards, You Yi and Dao Yi were able to bring Bai Shi out of the prison without any hindrance.
According to Pei Luo, after rescuing Bai Shi, the two of them took her directly out of the city to the bamboo forest.
Pei Luo led the jailers around for a long time, and after confirming that You Yi and Dao Yi had rescued Bai Shi, he stopped playing with the jailers and headed towards the palace.
Pei Luo had been to the palace several times before, so he was quite familiar with it.
However, he didn't know where Su Xuening had been taken, so he wandered around looking for her.
Pei Luo had been searching for a full hour, but still hadn't found the person.
Seeing that it was getting late, and that it would be almost dawn if they continued searching, Pei Luo dared not waste any more time. He grabbed a member of the Imperial Guard and asked him, only to find out that Su Xuening had been sent to the Cold Palace.
After knocking out the imperial guard, Pei Luo went to the Cold Palace.
"Girl!"
Seeing Su Xuening huddled by a dry well in the cold palace, seemingly asleep, Pei Luo felt extremely sorry for her and immediately flew to her side.
Hearing Pei Luo's voice, Su Xuening groggily opened her eyes. When she saw that it really was Pei Luo, Su Xuening frowned immediately: "Master, am I dreaming?"
Was she dreaming, or had her master really come to save her?
Pei Luo quickly helped Su Xuening up from the ground, and said with concern, "Girl, why are you sleeping here? Be careful not to catch a cold. Did they do anything to you?"
Hearing Pei Luo's concerned words, Su Xuening finally realized that her master had really come to save her.
Thinking of her past life, Su Xuening panicked and grabbed Pei Luo, saying urgently, "Master, you shouldn't have come to save me!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Let's go!" Pei Luo had no idea what Su Xuening was worried about, so he grabbed Su Xuening and flew out of the Cold Palace.
But as soon as the two arrived outside the Cold Palace, they were immediately surrounded by the Imperial Guards.
Xuanyuan Yu stepped out from behind the Imperial Guards, staring at Pei Luo with a sinister look: "Who are you?"
When someone caused a disturbance in Chengqian Palace, he guessed that a master was helping Su Xuening and Bai Shi. That's why he specially locked Su Xuening in this cold palace this time, in order to capture this master.
Unexpectedly, this person appeared on the very first day.
Su Xuening didn't expect that Xuan Yuan Yu would set up an ambush outside the Cold Palace so quickly. His move was clearly aimed at her master!
So he locked her in the cold palace to capture his master?
What about the previous life? Was it the same in the previous life?
How did he know about his master? And why did he want to capture his master?
Before Pei Luo could speak, a member of the Imperial Guard rushed over with a jailer: "Third Prince, something has happened in the Imperial Prison! The Holy Princess has been rescued."
Xuanyuan Yu suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Pei Luo with a sinister gaze: "This was also your doing, wasn't it?"
Su Xuening breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that Bai Shi had been rescued.
In any case, Mother is safe.
While protecting Su Xuening, Pei Luo kept an eye on Xuan Yuan Yu, ready to make a move.
"Release the arrows!" Xuan Yuan Yu seemed to have seen through Pei Luo's intention and immediately waved his hand.
Countless Imperial Guards lying in ambush around Pei Luo raised their bows and arrows in unison.
Upon seeing the Imperial Guards and their bows and arrows, Su Xuening immediately recalled the scene in her previous life where Pei Luo was shot and killed by them.
Startled, Su Xuening ran straight to Pei Luo and stretched out her arms to shield him.
Su Xuening's sudden action startled both Xuan Yuan Yu and Pei Luo.
"Wait a minute." Xuan Yuan Yu immediately raised his hand again, loudly stopping the Imperial Guards who were about to shoot arrows.
After stopping the Imperial Guards, Xuan Yuan Yu glared at Su Xue Ning anxiously: "Are you crazy? Do you really want to die?!"
If he hadn't stopped her in time, she would probably be riddled with bullets by now.
Pei Luo, still shaken, tried to pull Su Xuening behind him, but Su Xuening stood firmly in front of him, never leaving his side.
She couldn't move; she had to protect her master. She absolutely couldn't let him die in front of her like he did in her previous life.
"Xuanyuan Yu, release my master!"
Xuanyuan Yu frowned suddenly and turned to Pei Luo: "Is he your master?"
How come he had no idea when she took a master or what master she was looking for?
Su Xuening glanced at the restless Imperial Guards and raised her voice again: "Let these Imperial Guards retreat and let my master leave. I can tell you the whereabouts of the real Su Family Army's military seal!"
