He also knew the meaning of Xu Tianze's question, so he answered it very casually. From then on, he would believe whatever Xu Tianze said, because he also wanted to trust someone without any scruples.
Instead of calculating and suspecting every time, you will end up losing your treasures and regretting it.
Xu Tianze nodded, not caring whether Long Muse really believed it or not. All he wanted was to let Long Muse out, and then the country would be in turmoil for a while.
The best case scenario at that time is that Lanming Kingdom and Cangjie Kingdom will resolve their civil strife and the situation of three kingdoms will appear again. If the result is worse, Gan Kingdom will be directly destroyed.
This can be regarded as a manifestation of Xu Tianze's direct revenge on Emperor Gan and breaking free from his schemes. When he gets to the underworld, he can laugh at Emperor Gan and let him know that all his schemes were in vain.
Moreover, Xu Tianze had a premonition that only one of him and Long Muse would survive. With Long Muse's methods, once he saw an escape route, he would definitely abandon him again, and the one who was abandoned would surely die without a burial place.
But Xu Tianze didn't care at all, because he really had nothing to miss in this world, so he was willing to use his last life to complete the remaining deployment.
After that, Long Musi and Xu Tianze fell silent. Apart from Xu Tianze occasionally calling out which intersection they were heading to, the two of them had no other conversation.
The pursuers behind them finally lost track of Xu Tianze and Long Musi in this winding secret passage.
"I didn't expect that Aze is so familiar with this secret passage." Seeing that there were no more pursuers behind him, Long Musi breathed a sigh of relief and began to joke.
"I'm not too familiar with it, but the prince has taken me here several times." Xu Tianze coughed lightly a few times, his tone somewhat relaxed.
These secret passages were dug bit by bit by successive emperors over the years, so that when problems arose in the end, there would be no way out when forced to abdicate.
Over time, this place became an intricate underground maze. If his memory had not greatly improved, almost to the point of photographic memory, he might not have been able to remember these secret passages.
"Was it when you brought your royal brother out of the prison?" Long Musi replied.
It’s not that he didn’t want to guess about other times, but based on the possibility that the prince and Xu Tianze could enter the secret passage under the palace together, it was probably only that one time.
"You guessed correctly. It was indeed that time that this secret passage finally led to the Heavenly Prison. When the time came, we went out from the secret passage on the other side of the Heavenly Prison, and Long Mujiang would not have thought of it." Xu Tianze nodded.
But thinking that Long Muse couldn't see him nod at this moment, he began to explain for Long Muse.
"The final destination of the secret passage is the Xu Mansion. We can then find a way to leave Shangjing City."
"Well, I'll listen to Aze." Long Musi responded with a smile.
It seems that his Aze has no intention of committing suicide. He has even chosen the next path and will definitely leave with him when the time comes.
Now his good second brother has come back to life and used Aze again, and was finally discovered by Aze. It can be said that Aze must be angry with the second brother now.
Maybe he was completely disappointed, and then the second prince was no longer in Aze's heart, and his opportunity came directly.
If he could really get into Aze's heart, he felt that he could actually give up the throne and power. Then he could find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and it would not be impossible for him and Aze to live a simple life together.
Xu Tianze didn't know what Long Musi was thinking. He was just wondering whether Long Mujiang had a backup plan in the Heavenly Prison. If so, he would definitely act according to the plan.
If Long Mujiang had not made any arrangements in the Heavenly Prison, he and Long Musi could have saved their lives, which would have been a good result.
Although this secret passage is complicated, if you are familiar with the road, there will be many shortcuts, which can lead you to your destination quickly and directly.
Soon, Xu Tianze and Long Musi successfully passed the location of the sky prison and reached the secret passage under the Xu Mansion.
After many years, Xu Tianze stood in front of this wall again, feeling a little nostalgic in his heart. It was here that the prince promised Xichen to him.
It was also here that he and the prince reached some tacit understanding. Now the wall is still the same wall, but the people are different from before.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Long Musi was a little confused when he saw Xu Tianze staring at the wall in a daze.
It’s just a wall with a mechanism, but it’s not worth Xu Tianze staying here in a daze.
"It's nothing. I just remembered the conversation I had with the prince about Emperor Gan's plan. Now I come to this wall again, but the prince is gone." Xu Tianze shook his head and explained, then pushed open the wall.
After the two came out of the tunnel, they returned to the Xu Mansion again. The Xu Mansion was still as desolate and quiet as before.
"Why do we have to leave the house now?" Long Musi stepped into the wind and snow first and turned to look at Xu Tianze.
"Since Long Mujiang wants to eliminate the trouble forever, I'm afraid the city gate was already closed when we entered the palace. Now we can only find a way to leave the city." Xu Tianze nodded and shook his head.
He also wanted to leave the city right now, but Long Mujiang was not a man without skills, based on his understanding of Long Mujiang.
Since Long Mujiang wanted to do it, he would try his best to do it according to the worst possible outcome, so there is no doubt that the city gate must have been closed long ago.
If they go there now, they will have no chance of leaving the city and may even be captured directly, so leaving the city now is not a rational choice at all.
Xu Tianze was about to say something when his eyes caught sight of the dead tree beside the courtyard wall behind Long Musi, and his pupils dilated uncontrollably for a moment.
Then his whole body relaxed and tensed up. He walked to Long Muse with a normal expression and took Long Muse's hand.
Then he suddenly jumped up and rushed into the house, but before he got in, he retreated. He looked at Xichen who came out of the house with a dark face.
"I always thought you were the prince's man, but I didn't expect you to be Long Mujiang's man."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you, my master. Xichen is indeed your Majesty's man. He has been lurking beside the prince, and was then transferred to you by the prince." Xichen bowed respectfully to Xu Tianze.
But the meaning behind the words made Xu Tianze feel cold.
