The prince is very cruel

"Yeah!" Yuan Xiang nodded continuously.

As early as a few days ago, Guan Ning had told Yuan Xiang through Xiao Shouzi not to be afraid and to be prepared in the next few days, as he would come to take her away at any time.

"Now is not the time to talk, are you ready?"

Yuan Xiang nodded like a chick pecking at rice, with a kind of unswerving courage.

"Yeah, I'm all packed. How do we go?"

Guan Ning took a look at her attire, a simple long dress and a pair of flat embroidered shoes, but nothing complicated. He quickly found a shawl and draped it over her.

"It's cold outside, let's go!"

Yuan Xiang held his big hand tightly and fled with him without any hesitation. She would accept it even if it meant death.

The two of them were like a pair of star-crossed mandarin ducks on the run. They escaped from Hongdoufang through the back door, but the place was still guarded by the imperial guards.

Guan Ning could sneak away alone, but it would be impossible for two people.

So, Guan Ning had no choice but to take action!

"who are you?"

"Stop!" someone shouted, but Guan Ning continued to move forward.

"Call for help!"

"Take it down..."

boom!

Click...

boom! !

In one encounter, Guan Ning knocked down six people with Krav Maga. His speed was so fast and his methods were so ruthless that he could defeat the enemy with one move. It was so terrifying.

Yuan Xiang, who was behind, wanted to help, but he didn't have the chance at all.

"Guan Lang, you are so awesome!"

Guan Ning almost fell to the ground. He said this as if the other things were not that serious?

"Hurry up, let's go!"

"Oh oh oh, okay!" Yuan Xiang followed quickly with his bag on his back.

In this way, the two of them easily broke through Hongdoufang and walked along the palace path all the way to Huaqing Gate.

That was the route out of the palace that Guan Ning had specially chosen. Both the guards and patrols were relatively weak. The main force of the imperial guards was stationed in the center and south of the palace, and Huaqing Gate was just to the north.

Even if they were discovered, the large force of the Imperial Guards would not be able to arrive quickly.

Everything went according to plan. Even a lot of the black gunpowder that had been hidden in advance was not used and was taken away by Guan Ning along the way.

But at the last moment before leaving the city, something strange suddenly happened.

First, the huge bell in the square outside the main hall was struck, bang!

Boom...

The heavy bell toll instantly resounded throughout most of the palace, waking up countless imperial guards in an instant. Torches were quickly lit in many directions.

"problem occurs!"

"quick!"

"Follow!"

"Guan Ning escaped!"

There were loud shouts everywhere, and the entire palace was alarmed.

Guan Ning, who was approaching the north gate, heard the noise and his face changed drastically, and he turned around suddenly.

"not good!"

"How could it be..." He frowned. According to the original plan, it would take at least several hours for Yuwen Hongdu to wake up. How could he react so quickly?

"What should I do?" Anxiety appeared on Yuan Xiang's pretty face.

Guan Ning gritted his teeth and glanced at the north city gate. The imperial guards there were making great efforts. As soon as they received the warning bell, they began to close in their defenses and prepare for battle. All the archers on the tooth wall were ready.

"Fight!"

"Hide first!"

"What are you going to do?" Yuan Xiang asked worriedly.

"Hide first and be obedient!" Guan Ning was extremely anxious. He could already feel the ground shaking and the imperial guards were coming.

Once surrounded by the imperial guards, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, it is impossible to escape.

Now that I’ve been caught by the old emperor, I can’t deceive him anymore.

After saying this, he unbuttoned his coat and pulled out two pieces of black powder from his waist. He had made them into the shape of bricks, and the fuse they had rolled by hand was very long.

Wow!

He turned on the tinder and the flames jumped out instantly.

Guan Ning lit the fire without hesitation. The city gate was closed, so he would blow a big hole in it!

Crackling... the fuse was lit and green smoke quickly came out.

Guan Ning threw it with all his might, and a piece of black gunpowder weighing about ten pounds was thrown out, forming a perfect parabola, and flew into the archway under the eyes of many imperial guards at the north gate.

At first they thought it was a bird and didn't pay much attention to it.

Until... BANG!!

The huge roar was like a mountain collapsing. A big hole was blown in the city gate, and the rolling dust and snow were blown up ten feet high.
