Today is also the day I was attacked by the little lord

While Yingzhao was speaking, there seemed to be a taupe afterimage on the wall behind, and then disappeared into the gap in the wall.

Tian Wu and the others focused their attention on Yingzhao, and they didn't realize it at all. Faced with this impassioned statement, they also smiled indifferently, and didn't even bother to respond, so they led the crowd to Shi Shiran Walking out of the meeting hall, a stone gate fell behind him.

"What should I do now?" Lu Wu looked around the iron cage for a week, but he didn't find any slack in the mechanism, so he couldn't help but feel anxious, "Li Zhu, this mechanism of the meeting hall was designed by you and the Xuanshu Department. I wonder if there is a way for us to escape. How about the day of birth?"

Pei Shu shook his head with a wry smile, lowered his eyes and sighed: "If there is a law to follow, how can I not explain it, but the opening of the mechanism in the palace needs to be coordinated with external forces, and it is only possible to raise the iron pillar with the help of colleagues outside. From now on...if Tian Wu blocks our access to the outside world, this cage will be an unsolvable situation."

Ling Ke watched his expression from the side, remained silent for a long time, then walked a few steps closer to his ear, and said softly:

"You expected all this early on, didn't you?"

Pei Shu met Ling Ke's gaze with a slightly bitter expression, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh:

"Can't you trust me a little more?"

"I told you about the division of camps in Xuanxiao Pavilion earlier, and I warned you not to be a slave to tigers," Ling Ke's voice trembled, "but you are still unmoved, even before Tianwu activates the mechanism. Sounding a warning, how can I believe that now that everyone is in such a situation?"

When they communicated, their voices were forced into lines, so no one else noticed.Pei Shu's emotions suddenly became agitated, and he held Ling Ke's shoulders tightly with both hands:

"I was originally different from you and the young master. You live in this world as you please and no one criticizes you, but what I love is despised by others. Only when I joined the Xuanxiao Pavilion, did I truly gain recognition. The results can play their due role. How can you imagine this happiness?!"

"No matter what, Tianwu and the others are kind to me, so at the beginning, I would rather turn a blind eye than openly turn against them. But now they are so rampant, how could I have expected it? In your opinion, do I, Pei Shu, be the kind of despicable person who ignores my peers for my own pleasure?"

He was really angry this time, and stared at Ling Ke with red eyes, then sighed dejectedly as if resigned to his fate, stood up and walked to the side.

Ling Ke was startled by his words and froze in place. She couldn't say a word for a long time. She just watched him come to the front of the crowd silently, and said in a deep voice:

"Don't be impatient, everyone. The Shadow Snake and I have tried to send out a call for help just now. Now we are trapped in the meeting hall, and the mechanism is locked by Tianwu from the inside. According to the original design principle, only people can destroy the broken dragon lock from the outside. , we can break the cage from the inside."

"Everyone has made great contributions to Xuanxiao Pavilion. Tianwu has absolutely no guts to imprison and wipe us out. Although the channels of external communication have been blocked, I still hope that you will do your best to contact and help within these seven days, and I will do my best. Dismantle the organs in the palace."

"This is the only plan we can do now," Feng Bo pondered, "It's just that Tianwu's move has indeed cut off the last possibility of our unity... The split of Xuanxiao Pavilion is irreversible. It’s also difficult.”

Everyone's faces were very solemn. The occurrence of today's accident was unexpected. Many pavilion members did not know the reason beforehand. The impact they received at this time is not insignificant. As for their final decision, it is still unknown. It takes careful thought to decide.

The most critical and scarcest thing right now is time.

The astonishing changes that happened inside Xuanxiao Pavilion were sealed under layers of underground palaces by strong cages, and no one else knew about them.In the Xianglan Courtyard tens of miles away, Su Xun and Duan Yunyang put on disguise equipment, packed up their self-defense equipment, and came to the two carriages waiting at the gate of the courtyard.

Yuan Ruozhuo hesitated for a moment, nodded to Su Xun, and slowly put the porcelain bottle in Duan Yunyang's hands: "Young master, this is the lost soul powder made according to the requirements of you and Mr. Su, put this thing into daily use The incense and the flowers and plants in the living room can make people in a trance within a few days, can't sleep at night, and the power will also weaken. However, the materials are limited in a short period of time, and only a small half bottle has been made, so it must be used sparingly .”

Duan Yunyang nodded in satisfaction. According to his prediction, even if Emperor Liang was not the chief culprit who imprisoned Su Xun, he still had something to do with Xuanxiao Pavilion's ulterior plan.Coupled with Tian Wu's suspicious nature, if he meets such an anxious and paranoid partner, he may not be able to cooperate sincerely.

It's just... since the last contact with Ling Ke and Pei Shu half a month ago, the two sides have not had any communication. At this moment, he doesn't know anything about the internal situation of Xuan Xiao Pavilion, and he doesn't even know whether they are safe, so how can he feel at ease.

On the other side, after listening to the information that Ye Zhiheng had collected recently, Su Xun's expression was quite calm.

If the information is true, then the previous turmoil is by no means as simple as it appears on the surface. They may have been targeted by dark forces and their whereabouts have been exposed.It doesn't matter if the target is aimed at himself, but if they intend to harm Duan Yunyang——

That person's mind is dark and unpredictable, maybe it is really possible to strike brazenly.

After pondering for a moment, he sighed softly, and said: "During the period when Yun Yang and I entered the palace, you quickly transfer the personnel and supplies of Mo Tang's team and Wuxie Tower to the Zhao Mansion in the west of the city, where there is a bright side." The identity is concealed, so it is not suspicious yet. In addition, after the palace examination is over in three days, there will be major changes in the palace banquet. After the two of us have finished setting up in the palace, we will evacuate from the corner gate, and you will bring your manpower to meet him."

Ye Zhiheng nodded solemnly, reached into his bosom, took out a drop-shaped spar and handed it to him:

"My lord, this trip is dangerous. I have improved the puppet bracelet to increase its internal energy capacity. This spar is its main valve for storing internal energy. When it is crushed in a crisis, the bracelet will use up all the stored energy. It will attack with all the power of it. But after using the bracelet, it will also lose its combat power, and it will take three days to fully recover, so it is better not to use it unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Thank you." Su Xun put the spar into his sleeve, and signaled to Duan Yunyang with his eyes, the two boarded the carriage and walked towards the palace along different paths one after the other.

The number of participants in the palace examination was relatively small, and the standard was relatively high. Naturally, the imperial court did not attach the same importance to it. The two of them were driving more than three miles away from the palace gate, and there were already officials from the Ministry of Rites waiting by the roadside.After verifying their IDs, they took over the duties of the driver and drove the vehicle onwards.

After the examinees were delivered to the gathering point, they lined up in a line according to the inspection officials' instructions, compared their figures with the portraits one by one, and removed the sharp weapons they carried with them to ensure the safety of the palace.

During the period, Duan Yunyang was very worried that Su Xun's muscular armor would be seen through, but his disguise technique was so proficient that he was not only impeccable in appearance, he even kneaded it with his own hands, easily passed the inspection of the officials, and successfully put the bracelet on Hidden in the armor with the dagger and other things, brought into the palace.

Due to the tense initial examination process some time ago, the palace examination was scheduled to be held in the afternoon of the next day, and the time before the examination was reserved, and the responsible officials led the candidates to familiarize themselves with the palace environment.

Duan Yunyang walked at the end of the team, with a distance of more than ten people from Su Xun. This way, he could not only avoid suspicion from others, but also pay attention to his movements.

Seeing the examinee named Xu Pingzhi having a heated conversation with Su Xun from a distance, although he knew it was a play, he was still a little displeased, and immediately lost the nature of chatting with others, nodded his head to deal with it, and then took a step back To the side of the official at the end of the line.

This official looks very young and immature, I am afraid that he has not been worn out by trifles since he took office not long ago.Duan Yunyang didn't want to greet those candidates, so he simply chatted with him, and walked through several winding corridors in the palace before he came to a beautifully carved palace.

"Excuse me, where is it?"

Duan Yunyang looked up and saw that this palace room was not used for business affairs or residence, only the surrounding walls were covered with colorful and gorgeous clothes, and the center seemed particularly empty, with only a lonely screen standing.

"This is His Majesty's Clothes Palace," the accompanying official replied hastily, "Your Majesty will arrange for special personnel to deal with the dust and dust after wearing the clothes that His Majesty thinks are commemorative on weekdays, and then hang them here. Occasionally come to watch lock up."

"I can't see it, your majesty still has such a habit."

Duan Yunyang smiled nonchalantly, his eyes flicked over many clothes, and finally fell on a purple robe embroidered with gold.

This is a thick winter coat, but for some reason, the left sleeve is missing a corner, which seems to be torn and damaged by force, and it looks out of place among the exquisite clothes.

Why keep this tattered shirt?What did Emperor Liang want to commemorate?

Unknowingly, he approached step by step, and was about to take a closer look, but suddenly his forehead twitched slightly, and then some blurry fragments flashed before his eyes.

Faintly, it was a luxuriously dressed young man standing by the lake, tugging at his sleeve that was being held tightly by another person.

The man was half-soaked in the frozen lake, and tried his best to use his strength to climb up to the shore, but he didn't know that the boy snorted coldly, tore his sleeve with all his strength, and then pushed him into the lake .

A vague voice sounded, like a ghost spit out a letter coldly:

"Don't touch me, you don't deserve it."

Memories poured in like ice-cold lake water, Duan Yunyang let out a muffled snort, couldn't help but swayed slightly, took a staggered step before standing still.

Not far away, Su Xun noticed his abnormality, and couldn't help casting a concerned look.Xu Pingzhi followed his line of sight and saw the blond-haired and blue-eyed foreign man staring at the clothes on the wall in a daze.

Why is this robe...

Could it be that this foreigner has any connection with the one His Majesty hates so much?

The author has something to say: So, what kind of past did Yun Yang have with Emperor Liang when he was a child?
