Chapter 2: The escaped prince

Views:

The woman came a few more times.

He felt that he was about to lose it, but at this moment hope came.

The footsteps came again, from far to near, hurried and fast.

Just hearing the footsteps, he knew something must be happening outside. He thought that his chance to escape might be now... Although he was fed every day, he had been tortured to the point of losing weight, and after twisting his hands and feet, he was able to escape the shackles! But it was not the right time to escape before, and the person who took care of the aftermath would check his shackles every time he came, so after finding that he could escape, he tossed his hands and feet back into the shackles.

Now that woman's footsteps are so hurried, is it time

As a prince, it is impossible for him to disappear without attracting attention, especially the queen mother, who will be very concerned about when he will bring her back a prince and concubine, so if he does not return for a long time, the queen mother will definitely worry and doubt it. . His last trace disappeared after arriving at the duke's mansion, so someone must be looking for him, but I don't know when, and I don't know if that person is smart enough to find him trapped here.

This time, Ian was so looking forward to the woman's arrival, hoping to determine if it was a good time to escape.

"His Royal Highness Ian!" The woman was so eager that she jumped into his arms without even plugging the torch, and the flame almost burned his hair. Moreover, this time, she held his face and kissed him so eagerly and shamelessly many times, which made him feel even more disgusted.

The woman's face was full of joy, "Your Highness, soon, we will be able to fly away! Wait, wait, my dear Highness Ian, I will be back soon!"

The woman then left in a hurry... so excited that she forgot to lock the door!

opportunity finally arises! And just based on the few words just now, he knew a few points: he was not too far from the duke's mansion, otherwise he would not use the adjective "go away"; the duke may not agree with this crazy woman to associate with him, otherwise why Need to fly away? So maybe he can find the duke to ensure safety. After all, the duke and the father are very good friends; something very serious must have happened in the duke's house, and it's not good for the duke, otherwise the crazy woman would not be so excited to say able to leave...

It seems that it is not a good idea to go to the duke at this time. It is better to escape to the suburbs and find a family to solve the problem, and then go to the royal knight or the temple, in short, leave here first!

He quickly got his hands and feet out of the shackles, but he didn't expect the blind man after the aftermath to come at this time, and after hearing the different sound of the iron chains, he panicked and wanted to slap him with the stick in his hand. .

Although he has not exercised his hands and feet for so long, although he is very weak, there is still a way to deal with an elderly blind man. After snatching the stick, he slammed the blind man several times, making sure that the blind man was not alive, and then walked quickly to the door that was not closed.

It was said to be a quick step, but it was actually hobbled forward. After all, he really had no strength, and his hands and feet were all injuries caused by his tossing.

The stairs spiraled upwards, as if to the base of a tower. Ian guessed whether it might be one of the two towers in the corner of the Duke's Mansion, and walked lightly to the basement door that opened upwards. Tiny lights came down from above, and he heard noises too... Whether it was the sound of boots and armor on his feet walking around, arguing over which direction to go, or swords colliding with swords The voice, these made him sigh with emotion, as if from a lifetime.

Gently pushing the door panel, making sure it wasn't locked, he opened a gap just enough for him to pass through, and with all his strength, he sprang out from there, towards a dry and smelly grass. After the stalk pile, he rushed over, and in two or three times, he got into the stalk pile to hide his trail.

When the trail was hidden, he breathed a sigh of relief. His hands were still trembling, and the part that was twisted by him to the point of being broken was twitching... But he didn't dare to leave the stalks, for fear that he would meet enemies and not friends when he rushed out, and it would be a waste of time. escaped.

But the commotion outside didn't subside for a long time. He didn't think he should wait any longer. Maybe after calming down, the defense here would be even tighter and he would be even more unable to escape. Therefore, after taking a few deep breaths, he slowly left from behind. Heap of straw, leaning against the wall to avoid the light coming in from the open door, slowly approached the wooden door, and then slowly walked out of the wooden door into the woods not far away.

The Duke's mansion contains a large forest, and the bushes in it are very dense, so they can hide the traces, but they also make bursts of noise because of his movement.

So soon, he was found.
