Chapter 276 [Late Night Guest]

It's nearly three o'clock in the night, everything is quiet, and the whole capital is silent under the curfew.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Bang! Bang Bang!"

"At three o'clock in the morning, lock the doors and windows to prevent theft and theft!"

Apart from the watchman's watch, there were only occasional groups of soldiers passing by on the Royal Street.

Even Goulan, a few schools that were bustling day and night on weekdays, were closed for the rare occasion.

In Prince Yu's palace, in the small courtyard next to the stage, everyone in the theater troupe had gone to sleep, and the two boys in the front yard who were guarding outside the courtyard also took a nap against the courtyard door.

Most of the people in the hospital were asleep. After a day of running around and working hard, some were snoring. Only the old leader was tossing and turning in the side room, unable to fall asleep, and occasionally heaving a long sigh.

After returning from the school exam just now, the head eunuch grabbed him and repeatedly reminded him of all the rules in the palace. Even before dawn tomorrow, he asked the stewards and boys in the front palace to boil water and bathe and change clothes for the theater troupe.

Then come and teach etiquette in person.

The old leader here is so worried that he can't sleep. On the roof of the stage outside the courtyard, there is a "young master" in Tsing Yi sitting with his knees in his arms. Next to him is an ordinary little sparrow. One person and one sparrow are falling on the roof.

Quite peaceful.

The cat demon stared blankly in the direction of the palace's harem for a while, muttering to himself:

"It should be right there..."

Hearing this, Cheng Yu followed her gaze and looked far away. At the end of his gaze was a small courtyard with lights still on. The three big characters on the door of the small courtyard were Yueyunzhai.

'how?'

He asked, puzzled by the message.

The cat demon did not speak when he heard the words. He sighed softly in his heart. Then he sent a message and replied:

'I said that the more I walked in, the more familiar it looked. It turned out that the courtyard was the side courtyard where the concubine of the Marquis of Jing'an lived before. The rockery stone in the corner of the courtyard used to be the concubine's favorite.

swing...'

The cat demon sighed with emotion, his eyes sparkling.

"It is not like a brocade bag to collect beautiful bones, but a handful of cold earth to cover up the wind."

Cheng Yu transmitted the message.

The cat demon was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and smiled bitterly:

'When I first think about it, it feels like it was yesterday. When I think about it carefully, it feels blurry, as if it was out of reach in my previous life...'

After speaking, she shook her head vigorously, then closed her eyes and adjusted her breathing.

Cheng Yu turned his head to look at her, and couldn't help but smile helplessly in his heart: "It's hard to look back on the past, that's probably her state of mind at this time."

'You said before that you were going to the palace to meet the emperor. Why don't you take advantage of the fact that the Five Elements Formation in the palace is weak and let me go with you to relax.'

Cheng Yu deliberately changed the topic.

When Jia Fei heard this, the light in his eyes suddenly returned, he nodded repeatedly, and immediately stood up from the ridge of the roof, slapping the dust off his buttocks and urging him repeatedly.

Cheng Yu couldn't help but laugh, and was about to spread his wings and fly away when, with the help of the cat demon's magic eyesight, he suddenly saw a black shadow flashing past in the direction of the palace. It was obviously not the golden-armored warrior in the palace.

Is it possible that someone is trying to break into the palace in the middle of the night?

He scanned the area carefully again and finally saw a thin and small body crouching on the ground in a secluded corner northwest of the palace.

After dormant for more than ten seconds, the man saw no movement around him. He slowly straightened up and stood on tiptoe to climb the palace wall.

It turned out that this person was not breaking into the palace, but was trying to get out of the palace.

Looking at the thin figure of the other person, the outline should be that of a woman, but the movements were very quick. After a few attempts, he climbed up to the wall, quickly turned over, squatted on the ground and looked around for a while. When he saw that the place where he stayed was quiet and no one was there, he stood up.

Look around.

As soon as the other party stood up, Cheng Yu noticed that the woman's lower abdomen was slightly bulging, as if she was pregnant.

While the woman stood and watched, Cheng Yu and Jia Fei finally saw the woman's face, and the cat demon whispered:

"Why do I look at that person looking a little strange and familiar?"

"Um!"

Cheng Yu nodded slightly, then suddenly remembered something, and sent a message to the cat demon:

'It turns out to be her. Do you still remember that Zhang Baogu in the suburbs of Gyeonggi Province was about to flee with Mrs. Liu who had an affair, and she happened to meet Mrs. Liu's husband when she came back, and her husband also brought another thin woman from the north?'

After being reminded by Cheng Yu, Jia Fei immediately recalled:

"I remembered it, but wasn't she and that...oh yes, Liu Dalang, they were both captured by the Jinwu Guards, and why did they run out of the palace again?"

At the moment of doubt, I saw the thin woman from the north stretched her head and looked around, her eyes were fixed on the direction of Prince Yu's Mansion for a long time, then turned around and ran toward the Prince's Mansion.

"How come I see her as if she is pregnant? How come she can run here like this!"

Jia Fei exclaimed in a low voice. Cheng Yu then summoned his spirit to take a look. There was nothing unusual about the three soul fires on the opponent's body except that they were quite strong. He immediately sent a message to the cat demon to go over and have a look. Then his spirit

He returned to his position, spread his wings and flew towards the woman from the north.

Jia Fei jumped up and down the ridge behind him without falling far behind, and always followed Cheng Yu within the range covered by the barrier.

Under the surveillance of the Dharma Eyes, the northern woman walked quickly along the waist of the palace wall without knowing it. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around at night, she quickly came to the wall of the harem of Prince Yu's Mansion and stretched her head to look around.

Just at this time, a group of golden-armored warriors came from a distance. The woman hurriedly found a corner of a closed back door and hid inside. She waited until the patrolling golden-armored warriors left before turning out. She happened to see a corner of the wall beside her.

So he stepped on the corner of the wall and actually wanted to climb the wall of Prince Yu's Mansion.

She really wanted to enter Prince Yu's Mansion...

The thin woman tried several times but couldn't do it. After gasping for breath for a while on the ground, she got angry and finally climbed up the wall.

Cheng Yu on the other side also let go of his speed and flew over. Soon he flew to the harem of the palace, flew past Yueyunzhai, and then flew to the back garden, arriving in front of him in a blink of an eye.

Jia Fei was only a few steps behind and caught up after a short pause. He leaned down and hid behind the ridge of the roof, only sticking his head out to stare at the thin woman tumbling over the wall into the back garden, not caring at all about her posture.

and the fetus in the abdomen.

'Does she want to get over the wall so hard that she doesn't want to have a baby? Do you want to go up and catch her and question her?'

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The cat demon frowned and sent a message to Cheng Yu to ask.

'Don't worry, let's wait and see what she wants.'

Cheng Yu folded his wings and landed on the roof next to Jia Fei and echoed.

The woman fell into the back garden and stood up to observe for a while. She was no longer as restrained as before, but was walking around while looking around. She looked like she was visiting the garden.

After walking for a while, she came to a crooked neck tree. The tree had a thick branch growing horizontally like a person's open arm, and a hemp rope swing hung from the branch.

The thin woman stopped in front of the swing, and after a few breaths, she carefully sat on it.

"Zhiyo! Zhiyo!"

The swing connection began to make a noise, which startled the nearby insects to stop chirping, which seemed quite strange in the silent back garden.

Seeing the swing swinging higher and higher, a smile finally appeared on the face of the thin woman. Then she untied the bun on her head with one hand, spread it loosely, closed her eyes, and with the corners of her mouth rising higher and higher, she said two lines

Tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes and fell to the ground.

Cheng Yu and Jia Fei looked at each other, and the confusion in the cat demon's eyes was visible to the naked eye.

"who!"

Suddenly there was a sharp shout in the back garden, and then two little night watch eunuchs carrying lanterns rushed over from the corridor.

The thin woman was startled when she heard the sound, and quietly jumped down from the swing. She did not forget to reach out and grab the swing. After the shaking stopped, she hurriedly hid behind the rockery rocks nearby and climbed up again.

The two young eunuchs held up lanterns and came to the swing. They saw that although the swing was no longer as arrogant as before, it was not completely still. After the two looked at each other, they started looking around.

"Come out! I see you!"

A young eunuch raised his head and roared to the sky, while the other one next to him looked around on guard, obviously making a false call.

The thin woman held her breath and hid on the rock without moving. After a few breaths, the two young eunuchs began to discuss in low voices:

"no one?"

"I think a wild cat came from somewhere to play on the swing."

After the little eunuch finished speaking, the corners of Jia Fei's eyes trembled slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

The two night watch eunuchs searched for a while but found nothing, so they yawned and walked away. When the thin woman saw that the person had gone away and there was no movement around, she quietly climbed down from the rock.

What a risk, the eunuch just raised his head again to look at him.

The thin woman did not dare to wander around as casually as before. Instead, she walked through the corridor more carefully, left the back garden and walked towards the front yard, looking around. She climbed over several courtyard walls on the way, although these walls were not as good as before.

The wall was so high, but with such a thin body and being pregnant, she still had such good skills that even Jia Fei couldn't help but be amazed.

The thin woman wandered around the palace harem, obviously looking for something, and finally she was touched by her in front of the Yueyunzhai courtyard.

At this time, the door of Yueyunzhai Courtyard has been closed tightly, and the female envoys inside and outside the door are also resting separately. Only the eunuchs and women who watch the night in the mansion occasionally pass by the door.

Cheng Yu and Jia Fei also followed her to the side of Yueyunzhai. They saw her raising her head and staring at the door of the small courtyard for a while, then climbed up the wall and looked into the courtyard.

After looking around for a while, the woman lay still and sighed lightly, but did not get down. She just stayed on the wall and stood there in a daze.

"Someone!"

Suddenly, a group of women on night watch noticed the woman's figure behind her. They shouted and rushed over to her.

The thin woman hurriedly let go, turned around and ran in the other direction.

"Chase!"

The women were chasing after them, and several young eunuchs shouted from the front:

"Where to run!"

The thin woman panicked and ran towards a dark path. Unexpectedly, she found herself in a dead end after only a few steps.

Seeing that the fire behind her was getting brighter and the shouts were approaching, the thin woman wanted to climb out of the wall again, but because she was too panicked, she kicked off and fell down.

Just as he was about to be captured, a green shadow suddenly flashed in front of his eyes. He felt his collar tighten behind his back and his body became light. When he regained consciousness, he saw that the top of the wall, which was high just now, was now at his feet.

"We can't run! There's a dead end ahead!"

Several women and eunuchs gathered together and turned a corner to the end of the path. Under the lanterns and torches, only the silhouettes of people flickering on the three empty walls.
