Chapter 435: Broken Dreams

At night, the wind blew across the city walls, and the torches burned quietly, and the patrols left with weapons.

Under the city wall, there are already houses where the lights are extinguished in the distance. There are figures standing there under the eaves with their hands on their backs, looking indifferently at the towering wall ahead. The figures are coming and going, and the torches are spreading like a long dragon.

The door not far behind him suddenly rang, opening a gap.

"Okay, this family is all unconscious." Yelu Hongyu's voice said in the dark. The figure under the eaves of the yard turned around, walked towards the door, and spoke to the person behind the door: "Have you found the secret passage you said?"

"The secret passage was dug up by me and the emperor, just to make it easier to sneak out to play." She suddenly shook her head and smiled dejectedly: "It's a pity that things have changed. I didn't expect that I had already been sitting in a place. Fortunately, I was just an ordinary powerful person, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with."

Unable to see the other person's expression clearly in the darkness, Bai Ning walked past her, "It's time to take revenge."

"Yes, it's time to take revenge."

Yelu Hongyu walked behind him with a slight tone, but a little sad. Then she wiped the corners of her eyes without any trace, and nothing happened. After walking a distance, at the end of the house, Sun no longer stood there. There were two unconscious people lying at her feet. She looked like she should be a slave in the yard.

The woman directly crossed the figure on the ground and pushed open the door of the woodshed. The pile of firewood inside had been cleared. On a seemingly and other floor tiles, the square hole was opened by Yelu Hongyu with a hidden mechanism.

"It's here." She took a deep breath, "From here, you can go straight to the backyard of the palace. Bai Ning and I go in. Lao Sun guards here. The guard of the imperial city is Wanyan Baye. He is the nephew of Wu Qimai and a fierce general on the battlefield. If the assassination fails, it will inevitably alarm the other party. This is our only way to escape from the palace, so someone must guard it."

"In addition, Bai Ning, your weapons cannot be brought in, and they are easily discovered. You have stayed in the palace for the longest time. You should know that except for the guards, only the emperor can wear weapons."

The Xuantian Hunyuan Sword was suddenly thrown to Sun Buzai. Bai Ning jumped out of his mind silently and said expressionlessly. Yelu Hongyu also jumped down, and then he immediately raised his head to the person guarding the side, "If some people find that something is wrong here, don't be ruthless and hold on for an hour!"

She held a finger up.

Sun nodded anymore, inserted Bai Ning's sword on his belt, and leaned against the shadow of the wall with a copper stick.

There were no figures on the entrance of the cave in the secret passage.

*********************************************

The Imperial Palace of the Jin Kingdom, the Imperial Study Room.

He flew around the corridor and rushed. Outside the door of the Imperial Study Room not far ahead, an eunuch Zhang Shouying looked forward to him. He saw a small eunuch with a lower rank coming towards him, and then waved to the other party.

"Your Majesty is still staying up late to review the memorials, and I feel distressed when I see it. Go and bring a bowl of ginseng soup to help Your Majesty replenish your body."

The little eunuch was stunned. He obviously had something else to do. He was about to open his mouth and coughed a few times in the room. Then Wu Qimai's voice sounded, as if calling people.

The older eunuch responded quickly, and walked in with a smile on his face. He turned his face and urged the little eunuch who was standing outside the door to sinisterly: "What are you doing when you are standing there? Be careful to get hit by a board if you are too late."

"yes…"

The little eunuch trembled, bowed quickly, and hurriedly ran back in the direction of the journey.

"I really don't have any signs of gaze." The figure at the door looked at the other party's anxious back with contempt, then he smiled flatteringly and walked into the imperial study room.

The door is closed.

...

The little eunuch ran back, passed the guards who were ten steps down the corridor, turned around and passed a garden, greeted a team of patrolling guards, and then walked through the moon gate, and walked more than ten feet further to the imperial kitchen.

Most of the palaces are very quiet. The path taken by the little eunuch is actually a shortcut. Maybe he has something to do, so he has to find a way to do what he sees in advance as soon as possible.

"I just knew that I was not on duty today..." The little eunuch thought a little aggrievedly, walking on the stone path under the lanterns. When the wind blew, the huge spots on the ground swayed.

The swaying light suddenly stopped in his sight and vaguely heard a slight sound in the grass not far away.

"Someone?"

The little eunuch hesitated to look over there, and then he was so scared that he wanted to open his mouth and shout. A small black shadow flew from the air, and the moment the Adam's apple rolled and shouted out.

Under the lantern, the horrified body shook, blood flowed down the bridge of his nose, and a small stone shot directly into his head. In the grass, a black shadow flashed out quickly, grabbed the body and dragged it into the hidden place, and rustling sounds came.

Not long after, a little eunuch came out, his face slowly twisted and wriggled in a cold state.

He looked exactly the same as the dead person in a few breaths.

"Wait for an opportunity..." Bai Ning straightened his robe and hat, said softly to the grass, and turned back again in the direction he came.

Behind him, a woman's outline figure was like a shadow.

On the way, I occasionally encountered a patrol soldier, and Bai Ning responded to it. However, when he was about the corner, he met a palace maid. The woman was shocked first, and then calmed down.

"You can't walk with eyes... I'm scared my aunt to death."

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for some urgent matters." Bai Ning tried to lower his voice, which sounded sharper.

"Forget it, forget it, it's okay anyway, you go."

The palace maid patted her chest and waved the cloth in her hand, then walked away from the side, and suddenly stopped again after a few steps. At this time, Bai Ning's face darkened slightly, and the female voice behind her said, "Wait... I don't seem to have seen you before..." Then, her eyes suddenly widened and her fingers turned over.

The figure pointed at suddenly turned sideways. The moment his arm was raised, his hand was pressed on the fair neck of the palace maid, and his fingers twisted slightly.

With a click.

The neck was broken and tilted on his shoulders. Bai Ning threw his body towards the eaves outside, and stretched his arms out to catch them, and dragged them up in a blink of an eye.

Not long after, behind him, there was another tall and agile palace maid, who was walking a few steps apart.

Outside the imperial study room, anxious figures were turning around. When they saw Bai Ning coming, they hurriedly approached the opposite side, pointing their fingers in the air: "You... let us tell us what you should do... to do something... to procrastinate, uh... where is the ginseng soup your Majesty wants?"

The firelight under the eaves of the outdoor corridor swayed in the wind, and Bai Ning looked at the other person with a smile.

"No... When did you grow taller..."

As he spoke, the opposite hand had already reached out and grabbed the eunuch's face, and his five fingers puffed and fell into the flesh.

The blood swayed in the lantern's light, and blood spread out.

The twitching corpse was then quietly put on the ground. Bai Ning and Yelu Hongyu stepped over the bloodstains and finally stood outside the door of the Imperial Study Room.

"How sure are you?"

"In ten steps, you will die." Bai Ning wiped the blood from his hands with white silk, threw it away, floated on the ground, pushed open the door with both hands, and walked in.

Inside, behind the desk, the old man like a giant bear was slightly stunned.
