Wei Qingyan was able to untie the chains of four people, and the lock on the door was no problem.
The four of them left the house, and under Wang Zhi's guidance, they passed a flight of stairs and walked through a secret passage before arriving at a wasteland overgrown with weeds.
Wei Qingyan handed Wang Zhi the rope he brought out when he left the house, "There is a formation here. You can hold the rope and follow me."
Wang Zhi heard this and quickly took the rope and held it tightly, followed by Cui Yingying, and Xiao Zhi'an walked at the end.
Wei Qingyan also learned some formations when he was marching and fighting, but the formations in front of him were obviously different from those he had learned before.
She frowned and looked at the seemingly endless grass, concentrating on recalling the records about formations in the fat monk's handbook.
After a while, he led the three people around the grassland several times and returned to the starting point.
The three people behind him all had fear and panic in their eyes.
Cui Yingying was the first to lose her temper and asked, "Are we trying to break a wall?"
Wei Qingyan quickly reviewed the several formation-breaking methods he had just gone through in his mind, without being distracted by what Cui Yingying said.
When Cui Yingying was flustered and wanted to ask again, Wang Zhi and Xiao Zhi'an both shook their heads at her.
They don't understand the formation, but they also understand that breaking this formation is not easy.
Without complete assurance, how could those people dare to do evil under the emperor's feet for many years, and not even care about guarding them?
It is because they are sure that this formation is difficult for outsiders to decipher, and their noise will only affect those who are meditating on breaking the formation.
The girl in front of them is their only and last hope.
Wei Qingyan opened his palms and traced the formation in his mind with his fingers.
After a while, she closed her eyes again and stepped out, "No matter what you see, follow my footsteps."
Without allowing the three of them to react, Wei Qingyan had already stepped out. Wang Zhi stared at her footprints, stepping on them step by step.
But soon, the originally barren grassland turned into a deep pool. He gritted his teeth and stepped on it, what the hell! Real!
What I just saw was an illusion!
This knowledge gave him more hope.
The girl walking in front of him might be more capable than he thought!
Soon, there was another cliff after the deep pool. With the previous experience, Wang Zhi stepped down much more firmly this time, but it was still an illusion.
But Cui Yingying behind him was a woman after all. She was so frightened by the deep pool and the cliff that she broke into a cold sweat.
Fortunately, Wang Zhi was pulling in front and Xiao Zhian was pushing behind. A quarter of an hour later, the four of them appeared behind a rockery.
Wei Qingyan opened her eyes and saw Lan Shu and several black-clothed secret guards milling around a stone.
The secret guards include those from Prince Rong's Mansion and those from Anyuan Hou's Mansion.
She was the one who was previously ordered to keep an eye on Zhuangzi. After seeing her and Lan Shu coming over during the day, he followed them.
"Auntie." She whispered.
Lan Shu paused and looked in the direction of the sound. When she saw it was Wei Qingyan, she said happily, "Girl, are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
"After you were knocked unconscious, we followed you, but accidentally entered the maze. No matter how we walked, we couldn't get out..." Before she finished speaking, she suddenly realized that the scene in front of her changed.
There is still the previous maze, but it is just an ordinary rockery.
The girl who had been carried away earlier was now right in front of her.
Seeing that Lan Shu was okay, Wei Qingyan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and explained, "It's the formation, let's go back first."
Lan Shu understood and glanced at the three people behind her. Without asking any further questions, she hugged Cui Yingying and walked out of Zhuangzi using Qinggong.
There were two secret guards, one with Wang Zhi and the other with Xiao Zhian.
The group of people quietly left Princess Yu's village.
Let a secret guard protect Cui Yingying and find a place to hide nearby. The other secret guards continued to stare at Zhuangzi, while she and Lan Shu took Wang Zhi and Xiao Zhi'an into the city.
On the way, I met Dong Zang who was rushing this way.
Dong Zangxing came to Wei Qingyan, "The Queen Mother suddenly went to Prince Rong's Mansion today and planned to stay in the Mansion.
The prince couldn't come out, so he asked his subordinates to come over first to see if the girl was okay? "
He was explaining to Wei Qingyan why Shi Yu didn't show up today.
Wei Qingyan nodded, "I'm fine. It's just that Zhuangzi has something different. He needs to report it to the officials in time and bring the officials before dawn. It's better to get both the people and the stolen goods."
She briefly told Dong Zang about the situation in Zhuangzi.
Now that the city gate is closed, she has a way to enter the city, but it is not easy to report to the official and come with official envoys.
Originally she wanted her eldest brother-in-law to help, but after listening to Dongzang's words, the corners of her lips curved slightly.
Got a better idea.
After listening to Wei Qingyan's story, Dong Zang looked horrified. He secretly took a few deep breaths before suppressing the shock in his heart.
With a solemn expression, he said, "Don't be anxious, Miss Chang. I will go back and report this matter to the prince. The prince will definitely have a solution."
His prince would definitely not tolerate such a cancer.
What's more, the future princess has put herself in danger.
"How many people did the Queen Mother bring with her to Prince Rong's Mansion?" Wei Qingyan asked.
Dongzang didn't react for a while, he was talking about Zhuangzi, why did Wei Qingyan suddenly ask about the Queen Mother, but truthfully told the Queen Mother in detail about the people around her.
The Queen Mother left the palace incognito, and she went to Prince Rong's Mansion not far from the palace, so she didn't bring many people with her.
Wei Qingyan sneered and said, "An assassin entered Prince Rong's palace to assassinate him. You noticed it and chased the assassin all the way to Zhuangzi."
"When the assassin enters the house, we can report it to the official. At that time, the official will have no choice but to follow us and chase Zhuangzi." Dong Zang's eyes brightened slightly.
This is a great idea!
He was even vaguely looking forward to it, "Miss Chang, who is the assassin going to kill?"
Wei Qingyan smiled slightly, "What do you think?"
She is the Queen Mother!
She bullied Shi Yu many times, and she just vented his anger for him.
After this experience of being assassinated, the Queen Mother would not dare to come to the palace at will in the future.
Dongzang praised again, "Excellent!"
Since Wang Zhi and Xiao Zhi'an no longer need to report to the official, there is no rush to take them back to the city and let Dongzang arrange for people to send them back to Zhuangzi.
Wei Qingyan and Lan Shu followed Dong Zang and sneaked into Prince Rong's Mansion secretly.
In Prince Rong's Mansion.
The Queen Mother was still asleep, leaning on the couch with her eyes closed, while the palace maid used hair oil to soothe her scalp.
She frowned deeply, sighed and said to her confidant, "Although the Ai family looked forward to his early marriage, they never expected that the emperor would actually marry such a woman to her.
The thought of dressing like a man but not a boy, a girl but not a girl, growing up in a rural area, and hanging out with Lan Shusi makes Aijia's head hurt badly just thinking about it.
But Shi Yu is unlucky, how could the Ai family have such a son..."
Wei Qingyan, who was on the roof, heard her disgusting tone and jumped up to the Queen Mother. He raised his hand and slapped the Queen Mother twice on the face, "Where is Prince Rong?"
The sudden change made the Queen Mother and several palace officials confused for a moment.
The Queen Mother was the first to react, "Come here, catch the assassin."
As if frightened, Wei Qingyan jumped out of the window and ran away. He said in a male voice to Lan Shu who was standing outside the window, "Go kill King Rong."
