Qin Zeng's arrival was undoubtedly very timely. If he had been a step later, Li Qingyi would have been bitten even if he did not die in Shekou.
He grabbed the iron chain and held Li Qingyi tightly in his arms, "I shouldn't have allowed you to be so willful. Let's see how I deal with you when I get back!"
Although Li Qingyi had discussed this plan with him in advance, the part about entering the underground palace alone was basically to kill first and then tell the story later. When the turnip blue statue reported everything, Qin Zeng was almost scared out of his wits. He almost went to Da Shen Xiang Rouge Shop with Gongsun Yi. , but still failed to see how Gongsun Yi entered the underground palace.
He could only find another way and go to Mrs. Guo to ask about the shop. If Guo Chongli hadn't happened to know the wellhead, he would have blown up the Deep Fragrance Rouge Shop according to the original plan he had agreed with Li Qingyi.
If that were the case, it would definitely not come so soon.
Li Qingyi also knew that she was taking too many risks, but she was at least 60 to 70% sure, and she had made a lot of preparations with Changning Changlan, "I will make a good apology to you when I get back."
Qin Zeng said coldly: "You should be lucky that you are lucky!"
After all, Li Qingyi made up his mind and said coquettishly with a miserable look on his face: "Zhenlang, I can't crawl anymore..."
Qin Zeng glared at her fiercely and hugged her tightly, "Follow me first and then we'll talk."
Countless swaying shadows gathered around her, and Li Miaoran was so frightened that she almost collapsed. Seeing that her brother-in-law finally came to the rescue, her soul finally returned to its original position, and she said, "Princess Eleven is crawling over!"
Li Qingyi looked down.
I don't know if Princess Eleven knew that she was protected by Qin Zeng, and she would definitely be able to get out, but she was staring at her ghostly.
However, I don’t know whether the eleventh princess was too unlucky or because her white palace clothes were too conspicuous. She was discovered by a woman from the Xi tribe, and she quickly chased after her. Gongsun Yi wanted to kill everyone below, but he had no connection with Princess Eleven and didn't care what the other party would do.
Princess Eleven was panicked, in a hurry, and even more furious. This was the third time she climbed up and was discovered again!
But how could that woman from the Ya clan have any sympathy for her? She raised her dagger and stabbed the eleventh princess.
Princess Eleven screamed, her calf suddenly bleeding profusely!
The women of the Xi tribe also spent a long time trying to catch a human sacrifice, and were very proud of it.
Qin Zeng squinted his eyes and looked over, holding his breath. Taking advantage of the person's success, he seized the opportunity to leap forward, grabbed the person from the back, curled his five fingers into claws, and pinched her throat!
Click! The broken flesh made a horrifying muffled sound.
Without pausing, he caught the dagger that fell from her hand when the person fell from the chain. Throw it at another Xi tribe woman who is chasing after her.
With his help, Gongsun Yi's pressure suddenly eased.
The two of them cleared away a lot of people and snakes around them. When the person controlling the snake below saw that something was not going well, he ran out of the stone room in a panic, presumably to report the news to Mrs. Lin.
Li Qingyi and others took advantage of this time and quickly climbed towards the hole blasted above.
Chang Ning Chang Lan and several personal guards around Qin Zeng responded from above, and finally came out of the stone room where the altar was located. Li Qingyi felt that he was finally alive.
Qin Zeng reminded: "You can't relax now. Your physical strength is extremely exhausted. It's not good to relax suddenly. You may not be able to get up for several days."
Li Qingyi nodded, "Has everyone else come in?"
"Just wait until Mrs. Lin becomes furious."
Li Qingyi subconsciously went to see Gongsun Yi.
Gongsun Yi stretched out his hands as a sign of submission.
Qin Zeng waved his hand, and someone came forward and tied up Gongsun Yi.
"You must be willing to provide us with the secret to opening the underground palace's trap."
Gongsun Yi smiled bitterly, "Of course."
*****
Above the remaining underground palace of the Han State is the palace of Dajing.
In the imperial garden, all kinds of precious autumn chrysanthemums will also fall away, but the red peony branches on Lin Mi's sleeves and skirt are blooming in full bloom, just like her age and youth.
She was living in Zhenbei Palace at that time
During this period, Lin's identity was exposed, and Mrs. Gongsun asked her to inquire about Lin's past.
As the daughter of the Lin family, Lin Mi knew her "aunt" in great detail before going to Beijing. She knew that Lin's identity was probably fake. She was very cooperative and told Mrs. Gongsun everything. .
In return, Mrs. Gongsun found a way to send her to the draft.
Living up to the expectations of the Lin family, although the emperor did not show much affection for her, she stayed at least. As long as she can stay in the palace, she will always succeed one day.
Thinking like this, she folded off a Yaotai jade phoenix in front of her, and suddenly heard someone say in her ear: "This flower is Mu Lingqing's favorite. If it had been in the past, if you dared to touch off a petal, I'm afraid She will all be killed by a rod. However, she is in my hands now, just like a chick that has just emerged from the eggshell. She is extremely fragile, so I can't do anything to you."
Lin Mi was startled and looked up at the person.
The other party was wearing plain clothes, but every move she made showed that she was no ordinary palace maid.
Moreover, she mentioned Concubine Mu's name without hesitation, and said with disdain that the other party was in her hands. Could it be that she was...
"Concubine Hui..."
Concubine Hui raised her lips and smiled, "You are very discerning."
Lin Mi quickly saluted. Isn't Concubine Hui in the cold palace? Why did she come out?
Concubine Hui raised her hand in vain, "Okay, I am no longer Concubine Hui, so why should I pay attention to these false etiquette."
Lin Mi was cautious and did not dare to make mistakes, "I don't dare to do this."
Concubine Hui smiled. Seeing her dress and the expression on her face, she knew the ambition of the other party, "How do you think this palace is?"
"Back to your Majesty, this palace is naturally the best place in the world."
"It seems that you yearn for this ultimate nobility."
"I would like to share your worries with you ladies."
Share worries? Obviously here to share the pie.
Concubine Hui raised her eyelids and glanced at Lin Mi, and said, "Although your face is a bit dull, it has a unique charm. It is different from the women in this harem. In time, you will definitely be able to please the emperor."
Lin Mi didn't know what she meant, so he could only deal with it carefully, "Your Majesty, you are so complimentary. I am not as beautiful as your Majesty."
Concubine Hui smiled slightly and changed the topic, "However, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve what you want in your heart."
Lin Mi's purple and gold skirt was long and trailing among the flowers. She was extremely beautiful, but her face turned pale. What did Concubine Hui mean by these words? Was she planning to attack her?
She lowered her eyelashes and said in a trembling voice, "I don't understand what your concubine means."
Concubine Hui looked at the warm yellow sunlight flowing all over the ground through the gaps between the trees. She reached out and took the Yaotai jade phoenix that had just been broken off from Lin Mi's hand. She picked off the petals one by one and looked at Lin Mi. A meaningful smile.
