Return of the Swallow

She didn't have the ability to dig up the palace of the imperial tomb immediately.

She couldn't afford to send the news ahead of time.

She couldn't even do anything to help, she just sat there and stared.

Until now, a eunuch still oppressed her?

Qin Yining gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Eunuch Li's rules are not very good. Send Yun."

Jiyun had endured it for a long time, and immediately responded when he heard the words, and stepped forward to slap Li Weiliang's face.

There was only a crisp sound of "pop". When the people around saw this scene, their hands were stunned when they were digging and moving stones and soil.

Li Weiliang covered his face and stared at Qin Yining in disbelief, "You, how dare you order someone..."

"As the empress dowager's servant, my father-in-law should be the one who knows the rules and sense of propriety. Why do you act so unbearably? The empress dowager is worried about the safety of the emperor and the courtiers. She ordered you to come to save people. If you don't go to help, Do you still have the heart to show off your prestige here? No matter how bad this concubine is, she is also a super-first-rank imperial order, so I will allow you to teach me a lesson?"

"You, you, Princess Zhongshun are really handsome! We will definitely report to the Queen Mother when we return to the palace!"

"If you don't go, I will go too! When the Empress Dowager was most worried about the safety of the Holy One, you not only did not save people, but also thought about such useless things. I must go back to the Empress Dowager Ming and see how I can get rid of you!"

Li Weiliang was a little scared.

Originally, he wanted to support the Queen Mother and act according to the Queen Mother's will, so he would only speak sarcasticly when he saw Qin Yining. Unexpectedly, this woman was pregnant and acted so violently that she dragged him into the muddy water.

Li Weiliang pursed his lips. If he shut his mouth at this time, the matter would naturally be over, but his face would no longer exist.

If you continue to make noise, I'm afraid Qin will order someone to rough him up!

Qin Yining looked at Li Weiliang's expression coldly, and saw that his expression seemed to be shaken, but it was not for the sake of the Holy Majesty whose life and death was unknown in the underground palace, but for himself, so he couldn't help feeling a little bored.

The Empress Dowager really "knows people and makes good use of them". At such a critical juncture, what is the purpose of bringing such a temperamental eunuch to the scene?

At the time of Qin Yining's slander, cheers suddenly came from the entrance of the underground palace, as well as the sound of soldiers chanting.

"One, two,

Hey! "

A large rock was removed, revealing a narrow opening.

Everyone worked together to dig out a hole big enough for one person to pass through, and after a few words with the person inside, there was a burst of cheers.

Qin Yining was taken aback, and immediately walked over there. It was Pang Xiao who prayed in his heart to be rescued.

Unexpectedly, when he got closer, he crawled out of the cave, two of the disheveled people were familiar to him, but Pang Xiao was nowhere to be seen.

Ji Zeyu patted the dust on his head casually, and when he saw Qin Yining approaching, he just nodded.

Lu Heng took a big gulp from the water bag handed by the soldier. As soon as he spit out the mouthwash, he saw Qin Yining and was stunned.

Qin Yining said: "It's really great that you are all fine."

Ji Zeyu silently took the wet cloth handed over by Gyeonggi Wei to wipe his face.

Lu Heng was a little excited. Knowing that Qin Yining came here for Pang Xiao, his mood was still joyful. Seeing Qin Yining at this moment left only joy in his heart.

"It's too dangerous for you to come here."

In Qin Yining's mind, she and Lu Heng share weal and woe and are related to life and death. Although they will not have the chance to meet after Lu Heng becomes the earl, it is true that they are trustworthy to each other.

Qin Yining then asked: "How's the situation inside? Have you seen the Holy Majesty and the prince?"

Even though Qin Yining's question put the Holy One first, Lu Heng could still hear that the only thing Qin Yining wanted to ask was Pang Xiao.

The eagerness in his eyes gradually receded, and Lu Heng hid his disappointment and decline very well.

"At that time, the Holy Majesty was leading the prince to the front, and the two whispered. Naturally, we couldn't get close. The only person closest to the Holy Majesty was Chief Li. The explosion happened suddenly. I saw a burst of flames first, and then the landslides and ground cracked." , before I could react, I fell to the ground. Thanks to Ji Concubine’s help, I escaped a falling boulder, and when I looked up again, the Holy One and the prince were already out of sight. The entrance they walked by was already filled with fallen rocks , and the flames can still be seen faintly inside."

Qin Yining's face paled when he heard this. There are explosions, flames, and falling rocks. Can people still be saved?

Even if you don't get burned, blasted, or smashed, if the air inside is thin...

Qin Yining was full of worries, and had already started not to think about the bright side. His complexion is also getting uglier.

Lu Heng actually didn't know what state of mind he had. What he said was indeed the truth, but originally he didn't intend to tell Qin Yining, because he didn't want to make her too sad and anxious. However, seeing how worried Qin Yining was about Pang Xiao, he couldn't help but say it. It seems that I can feel more comfortable in my heart.

But seeing Qin Yining so worried and frightened, besides being sour, he was more distressed and regretful.

"I shouldn't have told you that."

Qin Yining shook his head and said, "It's okay, you're right to tell me the truth. It's easier to rescue people if you know where they are."

Qin Huaiyuan also comforted: "Sister Yi, don't worry, if we know the opposite, we will know how to save people."

He took out the sketch of the interior of the underground palace that he had just drawn, and asked Lu Heng, "Does Uncle Loyalty know where the Majesty is going?"

Lu Heng pointed to a direction on the map: "It's about here. Do you want to dig here first?"

Ji Zeyu threw the cloth towel away, looked closer at the map, and said, "Many of the underground palaces are natural stone walls, so I was afraid that they would dig the wrong place for nothing. They were also afraid that there would be other passages inside, so they didn't go to this place." direction."

Seeing several people discussing, Li Weiliang completely excluded him, and came forward with his face covered: "It's better to ask the Queen Mother first before making a decision."

Lu Heng frowned, not expressing his opinion.

Qin Yining felt resentful, and was about to continue to teach her a lesson, but Ji Zeyu preempted her.

Only Ji Zeyu's low voice said coldly: "Who are you?"

Hearing this, Li Weiliang was immediately turned upside down by anger, but the one in front of him was the empress dowager's son-in-law, and the empress dowager loved Princess Anyang the most. In charge of internal supervisor Li Weiliang."

"Since you are a servant, go to the inner palace, this is not where you should come."

After finishing speaking, Ji Zeyu picked up the map again and discussed with Qin Huaiyuan, Lu Heng and Qin Yining beside him.

Li Weiliang's face turned red. When he found that many people around him were looking at him, he became even more ashamed and annoyed.

"Ji Consort, the Empress Dowager ordered our family to preside over the audience, you can't..."

"Come on."

"The subordinates are here."

"Send this father-in-law back."

"yes!"

As soon as Ji Zeyu gave an order, two confidantes immediately came forward to cover their mouths, and directly lifted him down. Their demeanor was swift and resolute, which surprised Qin Yining.

Ji Zeyu didn't feel that he had done anything shocking. He pointed to the map and said, "When the explosion happened, I happened to be looking in the direction of His Majesty. I probably knew that their lives were not in danger at that time." Glancing at Qin Yining, he clumsily Comfort: "So don't be in a hurry for now. Your Majesty and the prince will be fine."
