“okay, that’s it then. Feng Zhen and I will go first. Father and mother, you take care of yourselves. ” Xia Ling answered and stepped into the tunnel. She winked at Feng Zhen.
Feng Zhen looked bored and did not like to talk, but when he was with Xia Ling, no matter what Feng Zhen did, he had a tacit understanding with her.
He went forward and took the opportunity when General Feng was not paying attention to knock General Feng out.
“Feng Zhen, what are you doing! ” Mrs. Feng’s expression changed. Xia Ling pulled her. “mother, don’t blame Feng Zhen. I asked him to do this. Our family is neat and orderly. How can I run away with Feng Zhen and only leave you and father in the mansion? ”
“The most important thing for a family is to be neat and tidy. If you want to leave… Let’s go together! Let’s leave while there’s still time! ”
“But if there’s no one in the mansion, I’m afraid that someone will find out soon. ” Mrs. Feng pondered, but she was also a decisive person. Looking at General Feng who was knocked unconscious, she instantly made a decision “Okay, then let’s go together. Although the goal is bigger, just like Yan ‘Er said, the most important thing for a family is to BE NEAT and tidy! If we die, then we die together! ”
“En. ” Xia Ling nodded repeatedly.
There were also secret guards in the manor that followed General Feng. Madam Feng summoned two and followed them into the tunnel, in charge of carrying General Feng.
On this side, a group of people quickly appeared in the tea house.
In the general’s Manor, the secret guards were ordered to dismiss the servants and set a fire.
When the fire was raging, it was the time for Sima Zhao to consummate his marriage. According to the imperial family’s rules, he had to marry a wife and a concubine at the same time. He had to stay in the concubine’s room for the first half of the night and only go to see the concubine in the second half of the night.
Sima Zhao lifted the veil of the Xu family’s daughter and hurriedly consummated his marriage with her. He had been thinking about Feng Yan all this while.
Before the time was up, he had already gotten someone to help him wash up.
Following that, he stepped on the time and went to the side courtyard. Just as he lifted the veil, he saw a face covered in heavy makeup.
“Your Highness… ” The woman called out shyly, still dreaming of glory and wealth.
“Who are you! ” Sima Zhao’s face was dark.
“This servant, this servant is the daughter of the general’s residence, Feng Yan. ” The woman looked at Sima Zhao’s sinister expression and finally knew that she was afraid.
She lied through her teeth and stuttered, but the moment she opened her mouth, she revealed the truth.
Sima Zhao stared at her, turned around, and walked towards the sword at the side.
There was a sword rack in this room, and it was the room he usually stayed in. The Cold Long Sword was held upside down in Sima Zhao’s hand. When he turned around, his eyes were bloodshot as he stared at the woman and spoke coldly.
“Tell me, did you come on your own, or did the general’s residence send you? ! ”
“fourth… fourth prince… spare me. ” The woman’s body suddenly softened. Only now did she understand that the handsome and gentle fourth prince was not as easy to get along with as he appeared.
She knelt on the ground as if she had fallen to the ground. She kowtowed as if she was pounding garlic and hurriedly told Sima Zhao about the matter.
She was a maidservant of the general’s residence. She had a beautiful dream of replacing Feng Yan as Sima Zhao’s concubine, so she agreed to marry him instead… … It was all because of her obsession …
Sima Zhao held his sword. The hand holding the sword trembled slightly, revealing the blue veins on it.
Feng Yan… … Feng Yan, just how much did she want to let him down …
In order to marry her, Sima Zhao drank poison in front of the current emperor. He became the sharpest sword in the hands of the next emperor and was in charge of the palace’s secret guards.
He gave up his high and mighty position for her, giving up his lifetime of freedom, but what about her… …
She wasn’t even willing to marry him, toying with him.
“Men! Bring this woman who dared to pretend to be my concubine away. ” Sima Zhao threw down his sword, cold and malicious. “soldiers, go to the general’s residence! ”
The servants guarding outside the room rushed in and shut the woman’s mouth, quickly bringing her away.
The incident happened at this moment.
Sima Zhao was walking out of the room with anger and hatred, wanting to go to the general’s residence to demand an explanation.
In the east, the sky was lit up by flames that lit up half of the sky.
“IT’S WATER! Reporting to the prince, it’s water from the general’s residence! ”
The servants went outside to inquire and quickly came back to report.
On this side, the Butler had just gathered the soldiers of the general’s residence. A few dozen people were about to follow Sima Zhao to surround the general’s residence when the general’s residence suddenly became water. That day, they… …
“Prince, the general’s residence is water. Do we still want to go… ”
“Go! How can we not go? My good concubine is really going all out in order to escape from the marriage. ” Sima Zhao laughed coldly, “search for me! Go to the capital and get my token. First, order the entire city to be cordoned off. Guard the city gates well. Don’t let a single one of them out! “!
“In what name? ” The steward asked.
“Of course it’s to catch the thief. This thief set fire to the general’s residence and kidnapped my concubine to escape. He’s really bold and reckless! ” Sima Zhao’s lips were even colder. “If I don’t catch him, I won’t give up! ”

Xia Ling, Feng Zhen, and the other three changed their clothes in the teahouse and hid in the teahouse’s carriage that carried food waste to the outside of the city.
There were four buckets on the carriage. There was a layer on the top of the buckets and the food waste was placed there. The bottom was connected to the body of the carriage. The four of them hid inside. If they hadn’t removed the food waste, they wouldn’t have discovered that there was someone hidden inside.
This design was very clever. It was a backup plan that General Feng had long arranged.
Since ancient times, military officials had made great achievements. If they had not met a good monarch, it would have been difficult for them to enjoy their old age in peace.
They knew that the current emperor was not a broad-minded person. Back then, Madam Feng had used a strategy to fail in the selection of candidates from the palace. This matter was also a thorn in the emperor’s heart. After watching so many years pass, General Feng could see that the emperor always looked at him with a hook in his eyes A little hidden.
Therefore, in the capital, General Feng had a lot of backup plans from the beginning.
“Sir, we are the ox-cart that handles the filth in the auspicious tea house. This is something we do often. Sir, please do us a favor and let us pass. “. “It’s almost time for you to close the city gates. If we don’t leave the city soon, I’m afraid we’ll have to spend the night outside the city. Sir, please do us a favor and let us pass first. ”
The honest voice of the old man driving the cart was mixed in with the noise of the city gates.
Xia Ling stayed in the wooden barrel and listened to the noises outside.
She could vaguely hear the chaos on the street. The general’s residence was running water. Now the atmosphere was boiling. The atmosphere in the capital was tense. Those who were queuing to leave the city could easily be stuck here.
“Let’s go, let’s go! ”
They could feel that the wooden bucket above their heads had been opened, turned over, and closed again.
The journey was thrilling but not dangerous. They had just left the city gates for a while, and before it was time, they heard the city gates behind them being closed by the officers and soldiers. A notice was posted at the door.
The officers and soldiers stood at the city gates and announced loudly to the outside world three times.
Bandits had sneaked into the capital, set fire to the general’s mansion, and stole the fourth prince’s noble concubines. Now, the city was only allowed to enter and not leave
This was the martial law of the ENTIRE CITY!
Xia Ling breathed a sigh of relief in the ox-cart. Fortunately, they were in a hurry. Everything was fortunate, and they had even brought General Feng out of the capital together.
