Chapter 364 A complete show
When night fell that day, several people from the Yunnan Palace, Guangping Palace and Guo Palace gathered outside the city. They agreed that Feng Shengyi would be responsible for the task of entering the palace for rescue.
Why didn't Dugu Moyan go? The main reason was that they were afraid that he would not be able to help but call them sisters, or their names. Obviously, it was not something a servant could call them. If it was exposed and Mrs. Shi's people found out, it would be bad! And it just so happened that they both knew Feng Shengyi, and he had been to the Shi Mansion in the suburbs before, so they let him go.
After making the decision, they set out together for the dilapidated temple thirty miles east of the city.
But when they arrived, they didn't see anyone and thought they had backed out at the last minute, but that shouldn't be the case.
They felt the atmosphere around them was strange, so they were extremely alert and moved forward cautiously. Just then, they heard a "whoosh" sound and an arrow flew towards them. Fortunately, Feng Shengyi reacted quickly and blocked the arrow with his sword.
Mrs. Shi's secret guards were very pleased with Feng Shengyi's impressive skills, so they clapped their hands and said, "What impressive skills! You're worthy of being a member of Lord Guo's household!"
Feng Shengyi pretended to be angry and pointed his sword at the person who came over and asked, "What do you mean?"
The secret guard used his fingers to move Feng Shengyi's sword away and said, "Don't get excited. I came over here to test your skills. After all, I can't drag everyone to their deaths, right?"
After hearing the secret guard's explanation, Feng Shengyi half-believed and half-doubtedly put down his sword and said nonchalantly: "Now that we are all here and everyone is gathered, should we go? The sooner we finish, the more we can go back and rest!"
The secret guard asked again: "You can go, but do you understand the mission?"
Feng Shengyi replied, "Of course I know. Our master said that he wants us to help rescue Princess Guangping. Coincidentally, the princess knows me, so I will go into the mansion with you, and the rest of you will stay outside to meet them."
The secret guard thought: It seems that the master really trusts Madam Guo, explaining the general outline of the plan to her so clearly. However, he also said: "Since you are clear, it saves me from wasting my time. Let's go!" The few of them nodded and set off.
About a quarter of an hour later, the group arrived at the designated location outside the palace. The remaining three prepared to enter the palace, while the rest waited beside a carriage that had been prepared.
The secret guard explained the mission to everyone again, that they must rescue Dugu Jingyao and her sister at all costs.
Feng Shengyi followed the two secret guards from the side of the back door and quietly "flew" onto the roof. Feng Shengyi pretended not to know and followed the two secret guards all the time.
When they reached the rooftop where Dugu Jingyao and her sister lived, the leading secret guard stopped and clenched his fist to signal the people behind him to stop as well.
Feng Shengyi also confirmed that this was the place, so he waited patiently.
At this time, the leading secret guard said to the secret guards behind him: "Ye Yi, the task of knocking out the maid in the courtyard is left to you."
Then he looked at Feng Shengyi and said, "Because the windows on all four sides of this room are sealed, we can only knock out the two guards from the front and then go in, but we have to be quick!"
Both of them nodded to show that they understood, and then the rescue operation officially began.
The secret guard named Ye Yi came to the bedroom where the maids were alone and found that they had no intention of sleeping. However, he could not wait any longer, so he first knocked them out with smoke, and then went into the room and moved them to the bed.
On the other side, the secret guard and Feng Shengyi fell from the sky. As expected, Qian San was knocked unconscious even though he exchanged two moves with the secret guard.
Yu Da first dodged, and then wanted to fight with the newcomer. However, this time there were two people and he was no match for them at all, so he had to send a signal to the rest of the people in the yard.
Just as he was about to raise his hand to signal, Feng Shengyi kicked the thing in Yu Da's hand away from the side. Feng Shengyi exchanged a few moves with Yu Da and found that this man was quite skilled, but he had chosen the wrong opponent. He couldn't help feeling a little regretful.
Seeing Feng Shengyi seemed distracted and about to be hurt by Yu Da, the secret guard stepped forward and kicked Yu Da away. Before Yu Da could stand up, he rushed forward and knocked him unconscious with a knife...
The secret guard said to Feng Shengyi, "You're distracted. For those of us who make a living by our heads hanging on our belts, we absolutely cannot afford to be distracted during a fight. If we're not careful, we could lose our lives, or get caught, and then we'll be tortured!"
Faced with the secret guard's kind reminder, Feng Shengyi felt it was unnecessary, but he still said modestly: "Thank you for your help, I will remember it."
After saying that, the two dragged Yu Da and Qian San to the wall. Just at this time, Ye Yi also completed his mission and reunited with the two.
The only difference this time was that Dugu Jingyao and her sister knew in advance that someone was coming to rescue them, so they were not as alert as last time.
When she pushed the door open and entered the room, she saw Dugu Jingyao with her hands and feet tied, but she still protected Liu Jingyue, who was huddled in the corner of the bed. Dugu Jingyao asked warily, "Who are you?"
The secret guard said: "We are here to rescue you."
Dugu Jingyao still looked at them warily and said, "Don't come over! Who are you? How can I trust you? Do you have any way to prove that you are here to rescue us? If you can't prove it, I will call for help."
At this time, Feng Shengyi said, "Princess, Princess, don't be afraid, it's me."
Hearing this familiar voice, Dugu Jingyao was obviously not as vigilant as before. She asked hesitantly, "Are you... Guard Feng? Did Lord Guo ask you to rescue us?"
Feng Shengyi nodded and said, "Your Highness, yes! Let us untie you two."
Not only Dugu Jingyao, but also Liu Jingyue was not as timid as before. Several people used daggers and swords to cut all the ropes that bound the two people.
Dugu Jingyao quickly moved her wrist and said, "Finally, you've untied the rope on my hand. I've been so uncomfortable these past few days without being able to move..."
Seeing that they were still trying to reminisce about the past, the secret guard quickly interrupted them, saying, "Princess, Princess, let's go out first. Once we get you back home safely, it won't be too late to reminisce about the past later."
Dugu Jingyao seemed to have just realized what was happening and said, "You have a point. Let's go out first and talk about it later."
However, Shi Siming had not come for the past few days, so he had kept their feet tied up, which caused their legs to feel a little weak when they suddenly stepped on the ground.
Feng Shengyi asked with concern: "Princess, are you okay?"
Dugu Jingyao waved her hand and said, "It's okay. Maybe it's because my feet have been tied up and I haven't been out for a while, so my legs are a little weak."
The secret guard saw how long this was going to take. If he kept dawdling, the girl would wake up! So he didn't care about the idea of sex not being allowed to touch each other, and just said, "Since the princess has difficulty walking, I'll forgive you for your offense!"
He bowed and walked directly to Dugu Jingyao, carrying her up. This was something Dugu Jingyao had not expected. She wanted to attack, and the secret guard may have noticed that she wanted to attack, so he said: "If you don't get out now, I'm afraid no one can get out!"
Dugu Jingyao stopped resisting, and since Liu Jingyue didn't know martial arts, Feng Shengyi apologized and carried Liu Jingyue on his back. Then they extinguished the candles, quickly walked out of the house and closed the door.
Then he used his lightness skills to get onto the roof, and quickly ran all the way out of the Shi Mansion. He met up with several people who were waiting outside the mansion about five miles away.
Among these people, Dugu Jingyao recognized Dugu Moyan at a glance, but even if she wanted to scream, she had to hold it back at this moment.
The same went for Dugu Moyan. She saw that her two sisters were safe and sound, except that their legs and feet seemed a little unsteady. Although she was worried, she felt much more relieved than when she couldn't see them.
The secret guard said, "Princess, Princess, please get in the carriage!"
Dugu Jingyao showed a hint of hesitation, but Feng Shengyi spoke up, "Princess, Princess, don't worry, I will send you back to the mansion before leaving."
Hearing this, Dugu Jingyao no longer hesitated and took Feng Shengyi's hand to get into the carriage.
The secret guard thought: Fortunately, there is someone they know, otherwise they would probably only be able to knock the two people unconscious and take them away by force.
After they got on and sat down, the carriage started slowly. To make the play more realistic, Li Chu personally led his men to ambush at the same place as yesterday.
Sure enough, the group led by Dugu Jingyao were ambushed again. Dugu Jingyao knew that someone would ambush them secretly, so she just stayed in the carriage and did not move.
After a fierce battle under the carriage, the secret guard realized that this situation could not continue, so he found Feng Shengyi and asked, "Can I trust you?"
Feng Shengyi looked at him puzzledly and asked, "What do you mean?"
The secret guard said, "Your men, plus two of my men, will escort the princess and the princess into the city first. I will cover their retreat!"
Feng Shengyi had an indescribable feeling in his heart, but he still said: "Okay, don't worry, the princess is my master's benefactor, I will definitely not let anything happen to them!"
In this way, Feng Shengyi brought a few people to escort Dugu Jingyao and Liu Jingyue to break out, while the secret guard and another secret guard named An Er stayed behind to help them attract firepower.
However, Li Chu also knew how to control his actions and did not take their lives. Even so, the two secret guards who stayed behind were both seriously injured and in a half-dead state.
On the other side, the others encountered no more interceptions and arrived at Prince Guangping's Mansion smoothly.
In order to make the play complete, Feng Shengyi knocked the two men unconscious and left them outside the palace of Prince Guangping. He knocked on the door and then had the gatekeeper of the palace of Prince Guangping find them. This was considered a perfect ending.
Feng Shengyi also specifically reminded the secret guards who followed them back that the two people left in the suburbs were probably in great danger. Since they had successfully escorted the two back to Prince Guangping's Mansion, they'd better go and take a look. If they were lucky, they might not be dead yet. If they were unlucky, they would at least have to collect their bodies, right?
Seeing that their mission was complete, they thought of their companions. They couldn't bear to leave their corpses lying around, so they prepared to quietly go back and look for them. Perhaps, as Feng Shengyi said, they were not dead yet...
