Chapter 214 Breaking the Door
At three quarters past three in the morning, Ye Lanzhou suddenly looked up from the sound of medicine grinding.
It was too quiet—so quiet that it made one feel uneasy. The sound of snow falling on the branches seemed extremely loud in Ye Lanzhou's ears.
The next moment, there was a movement in the front yard of the palace, and the door was pushed open with force.
Xie Chengyan doesn't care about the servants in the mansion, but due to his status, the servants in the mansion are all polite. Who would be so reckless as to push the door open?
Ye Lanzhou thought to himself that something was wrong and turned around and ran to Yan Su's room.
"Miss Yan!"
Yan Su was standing at the door of the room. When she heard that the person coming was Ye Lanzhou, she opened the door a little, grabbed her wrist, and with a little force, pulled her into the room.
Yan Su's room was pitch black. It was obvious that she had noticed something was wrong. In the darkness, she made a gesture to Ye Lanzhou to keep quiet.
At this time, the sound of armor colliding could be heard from the corridor.
"Do you have a knife?" Yan Su asked her softly.
Ever since she was imprisoned in Prince Rui's Mansion by Xie Chengyan and all her sharp weapons were taken away, she hasn't touched a weapon for a long time.
Ye Lanzhou shook her head. She was not a martial artist, so where would she get a weapon?
Yan Su didn't say anything else. She just walked quietly to the front of the couch, tore up the mattress, wrapped it around her hands, and motioned Ye Lanzhou to squat down.
The sounds outside the door were getting closer and closer, and Ye Lanzhou's heart was beating fast. A few days ago, Xie Chengyan said that he was interested in cooperating with Southern Xinjiang, and today the Rui Palace was raided.
Besides, Xie Chengyan is not at home right now, and Yan Su is pregnant...
What should I do?
She suddenly remembered that Xie Chengyan had said before that there was a basement in the palace. That was where he used to train his troops. Even Hong Luo didn't know about the existence of that place.
Ye Lanzhou had an idea, but at this moment there was movement at the door.
It sounded like a small group of people. The leader kicked open the door, and the second person followed behind him and came in with a sword.
Before Ye Lanzhou could react, Yan Su rushed forward and strangled the man's neck with the torn pieces of mattress in her hand. She clenched her teeth. After getting pregnant, her body was not as strong as before. The force of this blow did not kill the man in her hand, but instead gave the people behind her time to react.
The man stabbed Yan Su with a sword. Ye Lanzhou rushed forward without hesitation and knocked the man behind him to the ground. However, she also fell heavily. However, she had no weapon in her hand, and subconsciously ejected the silver needle from her sleeve and pierced the man's throat.
The silver needle was too thin and failed to kill the man on the spot, but it gave Ye Lanzhou a chance to escape.
At this time, Yan Su had strangled his man to death. He stood up, picked up the man's sword that had fallen to the side, and pointed the tip of the sword at the latter.
Ye Lanzhou noticed her swaying, thinking she must have exerted too much force. She was already quite pregnant, and such large movements were difficult to handle, and she had strangled someone to death, so her body was already staggering.
Ye Lanzhou fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a while.
Fortunately, the person behind her fell down again soon after he stood up. It was the poison on her silver needle that took effect.
Yan Su could no longer stand. Ye Lanzhou endured the pain and stood up, supporting her the moment she fell.
At the same time, the other people in the courtyard also noticed the presence of the two people and shouted loudly: "There are still people!"
Hearing the noise, Ye Lanzhou helped Yan Su up and left along the corridor beside the room.
A group of officers and soldiers hurriedly chased after him, but when they stepped on the stairs, they slipped and fell to the ground.
Looking down again, I saw countless bugs with a strange red glow crawling on the ground.
