Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

After Zhao Yuan gave Shi Qian a piece of advice,

He then followed Zhu Yong to the guest room.

The three of them, Gao Liang and his servants,

He quickly followed behind.

After entering the guest room,

Zhu Yong pulled open the wooden bed,

Lift up the heavy stone slab underneath.

A large, dark hole was revealed.

"My lord, this is a tinderbox. There are candles on both sides of the secret room, as well as ventilation ducts, so there's nothing else to worry about."

Zhao Yuan took the tinderbox.

He then jumped directly into the cave.

at this time,

The sound of soldiers banging on the courtyard gate could already be heard from inside the courtyard.

The three of them, including Gaoliang, dared not delay any longer.

Without even waiting for Zhao Yuan to light the tinderbox,

So she followed his example.

They all jumped into the cave.

To know,

Zhao Yuan was still downstairs, preparing to light the tinderbox.

After Gao Liang and his two servants jumped down,

They collided with each other immediately!

Soft jade, warm and fragrant, nestled amidst undulating peaks.

Zhao Yuan then saw that Zhu Yong had already put down the stone slab.

Then there was a "hiss" sound.

It was obvious that he had pushed the bed back into place!

After restoring the bed in the guest room to its original position

Zhu Yong walked out of the room.

Shi Qian has disappeared.

Zhu Yong hurriedly walked to the courtyard gate and opened the wooden door.

What are you dawdling about for?

The guards at the gate had been waiting impatiently for some time.

They pushed aside Zhu Yong at the door and rushed in.

"The master of the manor, the eldest son, and the third son have already given instructions that every room and every place must be thoroughly inspected!"

"The leader of the farmhands said loudly."

"We must be extremely careful and absolutely not let those Liangshan spies infiltrate our Zhu Family Village!"

After the other guards went to search each room,

The leader stared wide-eyed at Zhu Yong.

Why did it take so long to open the door?

"Is there something shady going on in your yard?"

"Brother, it's late, I had already gone to bed, but I heard the knocking and hurriedly got up."

Zhu Yong explained in a low voice,

While secretly taking out a small amount of silver,

It was stuffed into the hands of the head of the village guards.

"This little bit of silver is for you brothers to have some tea!"

"Hmph..."

The head constable tossed the loose silver coins to gauge their weight.

A satisfied smile spread across his face (from receiving the money).

After the other guards finished searching,

After leaving the rooms,

The head of the village guards stopped making things difficult for Zhu Yong.

He directly called out to the others.

Then he left the small courtyard.

"Pah! You'll get what's coming to you sooner or later!"

Zhu Yong spat inwardly and quickly closed the courtyard gate again.

........

In the underground chamber,

Zhao Yuan struggled to get up from the soft, fragrant embrace of the woman.

In a hurry,

I don't know if I bumped into something or touched something.

After getting up,

He quickly blew on the tinderbox.

Then find the candles around the walls.

Light it up...

Chapter 394 It's Time to Talk About Marriage

In the dim candlelight,

The three members of the Gao Liang family, their faces flushed and expressions of embarrassment and anger, were...

He was staring at Zhao Yuan with wide eyes.

"what happened?"

Zhao Yuan asked somewhat guiltily,

Just now, when I hurriedly got up,

Because it was pitch black.

Inevitably, you'll encounter things you shouldn't have.

Touching something you shouldn't have touched.

"......never mind,"

Gaoliang gritted his teeth in annoyance.

It was completely dark just now, I couldn't see anything.

Since Zhao Yuan is going to play dumb,

So what's the best choice for those three girls?

That is, everyone pretends to be confused.

Fortunately, this was not yet the period after the rise of Neo-Confucianism.

Otherwise, these three girls,

But then none of them will be able to get married.

This secret room,

It must have been unearthed by Zhu Yong recently.

On the wall next to it,

You can still see the marks left by the shovel.

The secret room wasn't very big.

It's less than ten feet long and wide.

Fortunately, the height is acceptable.

At least Zhao Yuan was standing inside.

No need to bow your head.

On the ceiling of the secret room,

Apart from the bluestone slab at the opening.

In the corner, there is also a small passageway at 280.

This should be the air vent that Zhu Yong mentioned.

There were no tables or chairs in the secret room.

There were only two mattresses and a bed.

There was a water bottle next to it.

There were also some dried biscuits.

"My lady, please sit down and rest for a while,"

Mint had just finished speaking when

The four people in the secret room

I heard it from above my head,

The sound of footsteps, "thump, thump," could be heard.

"Shh!"

Zhao Yuan quickly gestured to Gao Liang and the other two to keep quiet.

The secret chamber was dug in a very rudimentary way.

Make a little noise inside.

It's possible that people outside could hear it.

(bica) The four people held their breath and concentrated.

Carefully watching the movements above,

After a while,

The footsteps gradually faded away.

The servants who entered the house to search it were probably already gone.

After a while,

The bluestone slab above the secret chamber was opened.

Zhu Yong peeked out and said,

"My lord, there will likely be several more searches of the manor tonight..."

"Understood, the four of us will stay here tonight."

Zhao Yuan immediately understood Zhu Yong's meaning.
