Chapter 82 The beginning of the escape

At the end of the unitary hour, the last ray of sunlight disappeared from the sky, and the surrounding area gradually became dark.

"Yueyue, are you... ready to sleep?"

Qionghua saw Cui Hengyue taking off his boots and lying down on the bed. She was very confused. She walked over and asked in a low voice: "Didn't you say you would take action tonight? Why are you still asleep?"

"Only when you have enough sleep can you have the strength to escape." Cui Hengyue replied in a low voice, and then said in a loud voice: "There is only one bed here, you can sleep with me."

Qionghua was stunned for a moment, then she realized what she was doing and said loudly: "No, no, no, you are the master and I am the servant, how can we sleep in the same bed?"

"It's okay if I say yes."

"ah......"

Cui Hengyue suddenly grabbed Qionghua's arm and dragged her to the bed. Caught off guard, Qionghua screamed.

The guard outside put his ear against the door, listening to what was going on inside the room.

After Qionghua screamed, Cui Hengyue's voice came from inside, ordering Qionghua to lie down and sleep, and then the room became calm.

After a while, the guard faintly heard snoring. He listened for a while, gestured to his companion, and left.

As the footsteps faded away, Cui Hengyue opened his eyes and sat up.

Qionghua sat up immediately.

"Let's change positions and you sleep outside."

Cui Hengyue moved to the bed, lay down gently, and said to Qionghua in a weak voice: "I will set off at the end of Yinshi, you can sleep peacefully, I will disguise myself.

"If I can delay it for an hour or two, I can get down the mountain safely.

"Don't worry, if there is a chance, I will come to pick you and Lin Jiang up in advance..."

On the other side, the guard guard hurriedly ran to report to Chiye: "Guard Chi, Cui Hengyue and Qionghua have gone to bed. They sleep on the same bed."

"I know, keep staring."

After giving instructions, Chiye walked into the palace and reported to Mu Yun: "Master, Cui Hengyue and Qionghua have gone to bed. The master and the servant are sleeping on the same bed."

You will be executed tomorrow, but you can still sleep tonight?

Mu Yun felt something was wrong: "Go ahead and check the room every quarter of an hour. If there is any abnormality, report it in time."

"yes."

Akano took the order and left.

Arriving outside the wing where Cui Hengyue was imprisoned, Chiye conveyed Mu Yun's order to the guards guarding him, then gently poked a hole in the window paper, approached the window paper, and looked inside.

The small hole was facing the bed, and the candlelight in the room was still on at this time, so Akano could clearly see the situation on the bed.

Qionghua was lying face up on the outside side of the bed, sleeping peacefully, while Cui Hengyue was lying on the inside side, each covered with a thin quilt.

Since the bedside curtain blocked Cui Hengyue's head, Chiye could only see Cui Hengyue's hands on Qionghua's body and her dress.

Akano looked at it silently for a while, and after confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he said to the guards guarding him: "You guys take a look."

The two guards observed through the small hole for a while, silently memorizing the situation inside.

After they finished reading, Akano whispered: "The candle lamp in the room should still be burning for a quarter of an hour. You can check it again before the candle lamp goes out.

"Pick up your ears and listen carefully to what's going on inside. If there's anything unusual, immediately break open the door and go in to check."

The guards looked stern and whispered yes.

After giving the instructions, Akano walked around the outside of the room and saw guards guarding the door and window of the room, so he felt relieved.

After returning, Akano reported the situation to Mu Yun in detail: "...Master, don't worry, I carefully selected that room. Even if there are no candles in the room, the moonlight can still shine in.

"And our people will check every quarter of an hour. As soon as Cui Hengyue makes a move, our people will be able to detect it immediately."

"I can rest assured that you are doing the work." Mu Yun smiled lightly, picked up the tea cup next to him, and drank leisurely.

...

At the end of Yin Shi.

Cui Hengyue suddenly opened her eyes. She didn't move. She first listened to the noise outside.

After listening for a while and confirming that it was safe, Cui Hengyue sat up from the bed. He first scanned the doors and windows and found no one eavesdropping, so he took a look at the window in the weak moonlight.

The time is just right.

She lifted the quilt and was about to take action when she heard a small noise coming from the window. She quickly covered herself with the quilt, put the corner of her skirt on Qionghua's quilt, then lay down and closed her eyes tightly.

After a few breaths, Cui Hengyue felt a strong gaze coming in from the window and stared at the bed for a while before disappearing.

Although the people outside had kept their footsteps to a minimum, Cui Hengyue could still hear the footsteps as he listened carefully.

As the footsteps faded away, Cui Hengyue sat up and scanned the doors and windows first. After confirming that it was safe, he quickly took off the outer skirt and shirt, revealing the black middle coat underneath.

This is the new middle coat she asked Qionghua to make, just to prepare for her escape.

The other side of the skirt is a black night jacket.

Cui Hengyue turned the dress over, put it on again, put on the scarf, stuffed the pillow into the quilt, then tore off a large piece of cloth from the skirt, put one corner on Qionghua's quilt, and covered the other corner with her own quilt

Live and make it look like she is sleeping.

After checking for the last time, he picked up the fire stick and got out of bed.

When she did all this, she moved quickly and lightly, and deliberately avoided Qionghua's body to avoid waking Qionghua.

Cui Hengyue looked at the window with a small hole in it again, made sure that no one was peeking, and then walked quietly to the other window.

She first listened attentively to what was going on outside, then gently poked a small hole in the window paper with her finger, and then looked out through the small hole.

There was only one guard outside the window. He was leaning against the pillar, his eyes were slightly closed, and his head was nodding down from time to time.

He is dozing off.

good chance.

Cui Hengyue gently opened the window, turned it out gently, and then gently closed the window. During the whole process, her eyes did not leave the dozing guard.

After closing the window, she quickly walked to the guard, covered his mouth with one hand, and at the same time raised the fire stick with the other hand and swung it hard at him.

As soon as the guard opened his eyes, he fainted before he could look at the person covering his mouth.

Immediately, Cui Hengyue asked the guard to lean against the pillar and try to return to his original state before leaving.

She leaned against the wall and walked quietly toward the door. When she reached the corner, she glanced secretly and quickly retracted.

Although she only had one glance, she had already clearly seen the arrangements around the door. Within the range that she could see, there were four guards at a certain distance apart.

Cui Hengyue weighed it in her mind. She had no way to deal with them all before they called for help. From this point of view, she could not move forward.

But to leave Guanyin Pavilion, you must pass through the door.

Cui Hengyue thought for a while, then returned to the window. She glanced at the guard who was knocked unconscious by her, then climbed onto another pillar and jumped up to the eaves.

When they reached the eaves, Cui Hengyue immediately lay down and observed the surrounding situation.

This time, Cui Hengyue found that there were no less than twenty guards around her. If she had just rushed out from the door, these people would have rushed over immediately, and she would never be able to leave Guanyin Pavilion.
