Bei Muqing frowned. She had no choice now. Yu Qionghuan was frightened and would definitely speed up her practice. Those children would probably not survive tonight.
And Bei Muye knew that she was going to let those children go, so he must have known that she was still in the palace, and Xue Lingqiao would be in danger!
"Let's get out of the palace quickly!" Bei Muqing whispered, "Take a few children out!"
Liang Qian is a little embarrassed. Now that the child has just been taken back, I'm afraid...
"Princess!" Zhou Li came back with someone at this moment, and the dozen or so guards all held a child in their arms.
Bei Muqing was delighted: "These children..."
"We picked them up on the way back. These children were quite smart. They didn't run around at first. They were hiding!" Zhou Li said.
"Let's get out of the palace quickly!" Bei Muqing said, "Without these dozen children, Yu Qionghuan's evil skills will not be able to be practiced tonight. At least we still have hope!"
Zhou Li nodded quickly and, together with Liang Qian, protected Bei Muqing towards the back door of the palace.
In the previous weeks, people had been arranged at the back door to respond.
The entrance to the harem was already brightly lit, and Shun Mingxiao and his people were waiting for Bei Muqing.
Bei Muqing was startled and instinctively tightened her grip on the sword in her hand.
Shun Mingxiao was wearing a silver armor. Under the illumination of candlelight, his expression was cold and cruel. He looked at Bei Muqing and said softly: "Princess, long time no see!"
Zhou Li looked around and whispered: "Princess, we're afraid we won't be able to get out, and all our people will be killed!"
Bei Muqing frowned. Unexpectedly, she still failed. She sighed and slowly placed the sword on the ground.
Zhou Li and Liang Qian were stunned: "Princess, what are you..."
"We can't escape, so we might as well surrender!" Bei Muqing said in a low voice.
At least if she was caught, Bei Muye would no longer look for Xue Lingqiao, who had rescued her.
Zhou Li and Liang Qian also put their swords on the ground.
The guards at the back all surrendered.
Shun Mingxiao stepped forward, raised his hand, held Bei Muqing's chin, and whispered: "You used to look down on my prince so much, did you ever think that one day you would fall into my hands?"
Bei Muqing sneered: "This princess looks down on you, not because you are just Prince Shun, but because I have long seen clearly what you are, a cunning, cunning, unfaithful and unjust villain!"
Shun Mingxiao's eyes darkened, and his fingers suddenly exerted force, almost crushing Bei Muqing's jaw.
"Princess!" Zhou Li and Liang Qian shouted anxiously.
Bei Muqing didn't even hum.
She would never give in to such a villain!
Shun Mingxiao naturally would not kill Bei Muqing. He turned his eyes and glanced at Zhou Li and Liang Qian. He drew his sword and stabbed Liang Qian.
Bei Muqing's eyes shrank, she felt sad in her heart, but did not cry out, because she knew that the more she cared, the crazier Shun Mingxiao would become.
Sure enough, Shun Mingxiao glanced back at Bei Muqing and saw that Bei Muqing didn't care. When he stabbed Zhou Li again, the sword missed a little.
He pulled out his sword and sneered: "In that case, let this guard die slowly!"
Shun Mingxiao and his men escorted Bei Muqing away happily, leaving only Zhou Li, who was seriously injured, and Liang Qian, who was dying.
In the royal study, Bei Muye looked at Bei Muqing coldly: "You want to betray me?"
Bei Muqing quickly said: "If I wanted to betray the emperor, I would not go into the palace to dissuade him, but would directly rebel outside the palace!"
Bei Muye sneered: "You do, but no one listens to you!"
