At the critical moment, in order to save her own life, Su Yi, who was extremely shocked and had a blank mind, reacted faster than her brain unprecedentedly!
He immediately hugged his head and squatted on the ground, barely avoiding the fatal blow.
The old woman from the martial arts family obviously didn't expect that an ordinary person like her could react so quickly, but it only happened this once!
Before Su Yi could even breathe out, the old woman attacked again with a second wave.
Su Yi wailed in her heart, she was in trouble!
Shi Qingqing is sick!
She really didn't expect that Shi Qingqing would let someone take her life so quickly!
Judging from what Shi Qingqing said and what she did, it didn't seem like she was going to take her life right away!
Take her life immediately. What's the point of her doing this today?
"Bang!"
The sound of arms colliding suddenly rang out. Su Yi, who thought her life was over, was shocked to find that another figure appeared!
At this moment, the figure was fighting with the short and fat old woman.
Obviously, it was that figure who saved her!
The room was pitch black, and neither the figure nor the old woman's plain clothes could be seen clearly. Only the general outline of the figure could be seen.
But now is not the time to recognize people.
Su Yi swallowed and moved towards the door little by little.
Before she could move to the door and take the opportunity to run, another muffled groan was suddenly heard.
"Haha, I am not as good as you. I didn't expect there is a master like you in this palace. I will find you, hahaha..."
The old woman laughed coldly and strangely. She didn't want to fight anymore since she couldn't win. She left these two words and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Only then did Su Yi begin to breathe heavily.
He let out a long breath, but when he saw the other dark shadow in the room, he held his breath again and subconsciously became tense and defensive.
"During this period of time, Miss Suyi had better not leave the palace where you live."
It was a male voice that was so hoarse that it made people feel uncomfortable, like the sound of a good throat being twisted.
After this person made this suggestion, he had no intention of talking to her any more or staying with her.
Su Yi was stunned and then lowered her voice and asked, "Who are you? Do you know me?"
Although the man's voice was horribly hoarse, he gave her the feeling that he would not hurt her. She could not sense the danger, which was completely different from the feeling that the old woman gave her.
The man obviously didn't intend to answer and was about to leave.
Just at this moment, the footsteps of a large group of guards were heard outside.
"Haven't you found it yet?"
"There are only a few ways to the toilet nearby. We have to find the person even if we have to search inch by inch!"
"Start from here, check every room! If anything happens to Miss Su Yi, we will lose our heads!"
There was the sound of the door next door being opened, and someone was coming towards this house.
Su Yi was wondering whether to speak out, when suddenly, she was pulled to somewhere, and then the black shadow followed in.
The shadow lowered his voice, "Excuse me, Miss Su Yi. Don't be afraid, there are other exits in this secret passage."
In this situation, she could only choose to believe him.
After all, if this person wanted to kill her, no matter how fast she called for help from the guards outside, they would not be faster than this person. After all, this person was more powerful than the old woman, and he was right next to her.
In the darkness, Su Yi nodded slightly, indicating that she would cooperate.
The man didn't restrain her either.
The secret passage is not big and can only accommodate one person.
Su Yi walked in front, feeling uneasy for a while, and asked again, "Who are you? You know me, but do I know you?"
If they were Yin Xuanmo or Yin Li's men, they wouldn't have to run. They could just go out and meet the guards to explain the situation.
There was silence behind her for a while. Just when Su Yi thought that the other party still wouldn't speak, the hoarse voice as if the throat was broken sounded again, "Miss Su Yi doesn't know me, but Miss Su Yi should know my master."
"Who is your master?"
"The husband of Miss Ling San."
Miss Ling San's husband...
Isn’t that her young lady’s husband, the Regent Prince Dajing!
Su Yi's eyes widened, she covered her mouth that was about to scream, and lowered her voice even lower, "You, you belong to my son-in-law?"
"Yes. I'm sorry I can't go into details."
Su Yi also knew that she shouldn't ask, but she soon thought of a question, "You have been in this Nanjiang Palace for more than a day or two, right? If you show up today to save me, will you be exposed?"
The person behind him was silent for a while before saying, "Don't worry, girl. I have my own way to protect myself."
So, this person was indeed implicated.
"Is there anything I can do for you? If I want to contact you in the future, how can I do that?"
"Thank you, young lady. You don't have to worry about me. There is only one thing, young lady, you must be careful during this period. The illness of the master in southern Xinjiang came suddenly and strangely, I am afraid there is something fishy. Something unexpected may happen."
"Strange?"
"I'm sorry, I don't know much. I just instinctively feel that something is wrong with the clues I found in the past two days."
Su Yi nodded and didn't make things difficult for him.
Finally I reached another exit, which turned out to be an empty room in a palace.
"Last time I randomly drilled a dog hole and got to a secret place. Are there so many secret passages in the Southern Xinjiang Palace? Are there any leading to the outside of the palace?"
"There are indeed many secret passages in the Southern Xinjiang Palace, but from what I know so far, none of them lead outside the palace."
Oh, okay.
The lanterns under the eaves outside were swaying, and some candlelight spilled in.
Su Yi turned around and said goodbye to the person behind her. At this glance, Su Yi almost screamed.
Although Su Yi tried hard to control her expression and not to appear so surprised and scared.
But it is impossible not to be surprised and shocked when you suddenly see such a face.
This is a man who is missing an arm. In the dim light, his face, which is so thin that only skin is left, is full of pits and scars. The color is also blue and purple, as if it was bitten by something. There is no healthy skin at all. It is impossible to tell what he looked like before, and it is impossible to tell his age.
In short, it's just like a piece of scary skin covering a skull.
Su Yi swallowed subconsciously, "...Sorry...I didn't mean it."
The man didn't care at all, "Miss Su Yi, please go back quickly."
Su Yi mustered up the courage to face him, bowed solemnly and thanked him, "Big brother, please take care of yourself. If, if there is anything you need from me, please contact me. Su Yi will do my best."
After Su Yi walked out of this place and turned a corner, the guards discovered her.
When the guards were surprised that she appeared here, Su Yi was even more surprised.
"Ah, I just walked around after using the restroom. Are you looking for me? Sorry, sorry, I didn't know. I will never walk around alone again in the future."
Naturally, the guards couldn't blame her. They breathed a sigh of relief and quickly sent her back, fearing that she would lose a single hair.
When Su Yi returned, she naturally had to face A Duo's worried and crying again.
Su Yi coaxed A Duo as usual, but she was not at peace in her heart.
About an hour later, outside the palace, at the Grand Tutor's Mansion.
Yin Xuanmo and Shi Qingqing were both standing by the bedside of Master Shi, who had his eyes closed and a pale face.
All the doctors in the room looked worried.
At this time, someone came in to see Yin Xuanmo and said he had something to report.
"Take good care of the Master." Yin Xuanmo instructed the imperial doctors and looked at Shi Qingqing, "I will be back soon."
Shi Qingqing wiped the tears from her eyes and said sensibly, "Your Highness, please go and do your work. I will be here to take care of Grandfather."
Yin Xuanmo nodded and left.
He went straight out of the mansion and got on the carriage at the gate.
The guard waiting beside the carriage whispered, "My lord, after nightfall, Miss Su Yi was dragged into an empty room on her way to the toilet. Before our people in the dark could react, we heard the sound of fighting coming from inside. Later, Miss Su Yi appeared from another palace, and we looked for her inside again, but we didn't find anyone..."
