The outside door was closed again, only the emperor and Hua Chunqingliu were left in the hall. Hua Chun looked at the emperor in a daze: "Where are you going?"
Yu Wenjie walked quickly, but the hand holding her was quite steady. After entering the inner hall, he lowered the curtain at the partition, then looked at her deeply and said, "You have to leave first, someone will meet you at the funeral dragon mountain." , I will go out of the palace to guard Yanjing."
What? Hua Chun was dumbfounded, watching the emperor lift up the brocade hanging from the strings of the bed after he finished speaking, reached in and didn't know where to press it.
There was a click on the bed, and behind the flowered curtain, a door cracked open in the wall.
Qing Ling was stunned, but Hua Chun was not surprised, because He Changan had said it in advance.
"In the beginning, only Zhen and Chang'an knew about this secret passage." The emperor said in a low voice, "Now that the matter is urgent, I don't worry about you leaving alone, so I can only let Qing Ling accompany you."
The implication is that letting Qingyou know was just a matter of necessity, Huachun was a little surprised, she thought that this secret passage should be known by the royal family, but... the emperor didn't tell anyone, just He Changan? The second brother told her in such a relaxed tone, she thought it was not a secret.
Turning her mind, she suddenly realized that He Changan told her the tunnel, did he want to save her a way out
"Flower spring."
Looking at the dark tunnel, the emperor suddenly called her.
"Huh?" She recovered and looked up at him.
"No matter what happens, there is only one thing you have to do - save yourself. No matter what method you use."
Shocked slightly, Hua Chun felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. She thought the emperor was going to say something like "no matter what happens, wait for me to come back", but she didn't expect...
This love story is different from what I expected, but it seems to be more beautiful.
Even though Qing Niao was still beside her, Hua Chun couldn't hold back, tiptoed and pulled the emperor who didn't look at her, and kissed her on the face.
Yu Wenjie froze for a moment, pursed his lips slightly, and a light flashed in his eyes.
Qing Niao turned her head tactfully, the emperor stretched out his hand to wrap around Hua Chun's waist, and kissed her lips heavily, harder than ever before, his teeth bumped into her many times, and his tongue curled around her, as if to Like swallowing her. Inexplicably, it gave her the feeling that her husband was going on an expedition to say goodbye to her.
Eye sockets were a little red, Hua Chun hugged his neck, allowing him to lean back slightly as he kissed her, anyway, his hands were firmly fixed on her waist, so there was no need to worry about falling or anything.
Just as they were lingering, there was a knock on the door from the guard outside: "Your Majesty."
Body slightly stiff, Yu Wenjie raised his head and released her, said yes, then turned to open the door, and took a bundle and a food box from the guard.
"Let's go."
Hua Chun nodded, Qing Niao helped take the things from the emperor's hand, held up the palace lantern and stepped into the tunnel first. The emperor watched the two of them off, but Hua Chun suddenly asked, "Can this door only be opened from the outside?"
"No, it's also possible from the inside." The emperor said: "But the only one who can open it from the inside is me. In order to prevent someone from sneaking into the palace from Zanglong Mountain, so I need the jade pendant on my body to open it from the tunnel."
This jade pendant is just such a piece.
"That's it." Hua Chun nodded, seeing Qing Ling go in to explore the way, he seized the time and kissed Yu Wenjie's lips again.
"...It's going to be too late." The emperor murmured softly while panting.
Hua Chun sighed, stretched out his hand to gently caress the emperor's waist, and coquettishly said: "I can't bear you."
Yu Wenjie was taken aback for a moment, as if he was in a daze, and he came back to his senses after a while, and solemnly kissed her on the head: "Let's go first."
"En." Reluctantly leaving his body, Hua Chun stepped into the dark passage and waved at him.
The emperor looked at her for a long time, then reached out and pressed the door closing mechanism on the wall painting next to it, and the stone door slammed shut.
It was dark in the tunnel, but the palace lantern was on, indicating that it was ventilated. Before taking two steps, I saw a room next to it. Although it was similar to a prison cell, it had a stone bed, tables, chairs and benches, so I could rest.
"It seems that the emperor has prepared dinner for you. Let's go on after eating." Putting down the food box, Qing Niao opened it layer by layer. Inside were the braised pork ribs that the master wanted to eat, as well as many nutritious side dishes, and finally there was a jar of sealed food. Good chicken soup.
It was still hot, Qing Niao hurriedly took out the bowls and chopsticks, and let Hua Chun eat first.
"Let's go together, we're all sisters, why are you still worrying about these things at this time?" Hua Chun pulled her to sit down, and said with firm eyes, "Let's go on our way after we eat, and arrive at Buried Dragon Mountain earlier, and then come back."
Qing Ling nodded repeatedly when she heard the first half of the sentence, but she was dumbfounded when she heard the second half: "Come back?"
"I have to come back." Hua Chun said, "The Buried Dragon Mountain is very close to the ice cave."
Qing Niao didn't know about ice caves, so she was naturally at a loss. However, her master's decision was always right, so she chose to obey. The two ate like a storm, and then continued to move forward.
The tunnel was built very flat, and the moisture-proof work was done well. There was a room for people to rest every time they walked. Even if they didn't walk much tonight, they could rest at any time along the way.
The heavy troops in the Zichen Palace were not withdrawn, so the emperor went to ask the queen mother for safety, put on his armor and left the palace.
"Go to Zichen Palace and arrest people." Prince Xi ordered lightly: "Break open the door and arrest them, whoever blocks them will be killed."
"Yes." Zhan Shui agreed, and hurried to do it.
The queen mother always felt restless and got up to look for Yu Wenxi, only to find that his palace was full of generals.
When did you come? The queen mother was a little dazed, and immediately went into the main hall.
As soon as the emperor left the palace, Yu Wenxi tore off the disguise without any scruples, and discussed with all the ministers about seizing the throne. Li Jiyue, General Meng and others were all present, and everyone was very excited.
Hearing the news that the Empress Dowager was here, Yu Wenxi did not panic at all, and asked someone to welcome her in, and said respectfully: "Mother, my son is discussing with the elders how to be king."
After glancing deeply at the people in the hall, the Empress Dowager was silent for a while before saying, "Are you really an idiot?"
With a raised eyebrow, Yu Wenxi stood up straight: "I know how smart the mother is, and you should have guessed earlier that this time I came back to Beijing to get back what belongs to me."
"Aijia also said that there are some things you can't do."
"Why?" Yu Wenxi looked at the Queen Mother dissatisfiedly: "You also supported my son's succession at the beginning, and he was the one who took the son's throne."
The Empress Dowager frowned, opened her mouth to speak, but hindered the people next to her, she swallowed it back abruptly, and said: "The Ai family doesn't want to see you and your imperial brother killing each other."
With a sneer, Yu Wenxi said: "Brother Huang has bullied my son so many times, you can turn a blind eye to it. The son only resisted this time and you opposed it. I don't know who you are partial to."
