King Zhenbei has a favorite

Chapter 125 The secret way saves Tingye, I'm fine, don't cry.

Ye Pengzhen is very different from the past.

She still loves cleanliness, her hair is neat, but her hairstyle is the simplest bun, without any hairpins, and she wears light-colored sky-blue clothes, but it is not a skirt, but men's clothes. It can be seen that everything is for It is convenient to travel and reduce all unnecessary time.

It's just that she is not in a very good condition now, her eyes are black and blue, her lips are dry and cracked, and her skin has not been maintained. She looks much worse than usual, which shows how much torture she has suffered.

Gu Ting didn't care about the pleasantries, and asked directly: "What's going on?"

Ye Pengzhen bit her lip: "I don't know how to say... Ting Ye has a secret, you should be able to feel it?"

Gu Ting nodded: "His lightness kung fu is very good. He doesn't practice it just for fun, but he uses it often. He seems to be hiding from someone... He is good at dancing with his sleeves and has seven orifices in his heart, but he rarely uses it in the right way. It seems that he is with someone. The relationship is not bad, but in fact, there are no friends who are really close to each other, it's not that he can't do it, but he doesn't want to... He seems to have been deliberately suppressing himself and suffering himself."

Seriously speaking, he and Tingye didn't get along very much. We only knew each other through a bowl of herbal soup, and that was the only thing he could observe. Tingye was very good at hiding himself.

"You can see clearly..."

Ye Pengzhen closed her eyes, looking as if she was about to cry, but finally held back: "I don't know much, he has many mysteries, he seems to be protecting a big secret all the time, it's very important, once someone finds out, In addition to his own fatal disaster, the lives of those around him may also be in danger, his family... all his family members seem to have died because of it."

Gu Ting understood a little bit, so no matter what his true emotions were, he didn't want others to know, he didn't get too close to people, and he didn't form a special bond with anyone.

"These things can be done later, but the most important thing now is where he is now," Huo Yan looked at Ye Pengzhen, "what did he come to Jincheng for, someone is following behind him, when and where he was last seen, tell me Listen to me."

Ye Pengzhen nodded: "More than a month ago, he suddenly disappeared from the capital. I happened to be doing business outside, and the matter in hand came to an end. After hearing about it, I ran over after following the clues and saw him in this city with my own eyes. He is too cunning, I can't be sure where he landed and what he did... It is certain that he has a tail behind him. For so many years, there are always people following him, even if he can be thrown away for a while, after a long time, others I will also find it by smell. I was not too worried at first, because there are too many such things, and I am used to it, but this time something is wrong. He suddenly disappeared again, and there has been no news for a long time. No matter how hard I searched, I couldn’t find it. I tried many methods, but it didn’t work, so I wrote this letter…”

She saluted Huo Yan earnestly: "I'm eager to find a husband, I lost my manners, and I hope the prince will not blame me."

Gu Ting: "Wait, are you eager to find a husband? Who do you think he is?"

Aren't you guarding the door?The kind whose husband died long ago!I have seen the grave!

It's been so long in the capital, it's not that he hasn't seen Tingye and Ye Pengzhen appearing together, although they are rare, but the two of them have always been far away, and they haven't said hello at all, how can they be husband and wife!

He didn't know that Tingye could pretend normally, seeing Ye Pengzhen was more like a mouse meeting a cat, running as far as he could, he didn't admit this relationship and even forced Ye Pengzhen to forget about it by feigning death, how could others find out half of it?

Ye Pengzhen's voice was cold: "He may think that it's safer for me to die."

She took the lead to go out and flew on the horse: "As for the last place I went to, I will take you there!"

She can ride a horse. In the early years, in order to compete with Ting Ye, she learned a lot of useful and unnecessary things. She is the Goddess of Wealth. Riding a horse?

The saddle was hard and uncomfortable, and her thighs were worn out a long time ago, and it hurt so badly when she touched them!

All the way out of the city, running very fast, Gu Ting had no idea at all, but after he stopped, he found——

"This place seems familiar?"

"It's normal, you've been here before." Huo Yan looked around and narrowed his eyes, "It's just not during the day."

came?

Gu Ting immediately remembered the few nights when Meng Zhen was seriously ill and was bedridden. He went out with Huo Yan to suppress the bandits. It was indeed at night. Could it be here?

He looked to the left, then to the right, and pointed to the east with some uncertainty: "Here—is there supposed to be a small hill?"

If I remember correctly, there should be some, but why is it missing?

Xiaopo is not big, but there is no reason why it will be smoothed after a few months of seeing each other. The reason why he only feels familiar and dare not confirm it is because he can't understand here.

"There should be."

Huo Yan strode forward, walking to the left and right, as if he was observing carefully, but there was no pattern.

Ye Pengzhen looked at Gu Ting: "Here... have you been here?"

Gu Ting: "Do you remember that Meng Zhen was seriously ill and was bedridden. I wrote to you to tell you that a bandit den was wiped out?"

Ye Pengzhen opened her eyes wide: "This is it?"

Gu Ting nodded, yes, it is here.I thought it was just a sudden accident, I encountered a cancerous tumor that had been hidden for many years, it would be fine to pull it out, and I would never encounter it again, but I didn't expect that I would still come to this place, and Ting Ye was involved.

Huo Yan also noticed this. Last time, he thought it was a secret organization with deep hidden secrets. Looking at it now, the problem is far more than that simple.

Gu Ting raised his voice: "What are you doing?"

Huo Yan stepped on the ground: "The only thing that can suddenly change the terrain is the secret passage of the mechanism."

Gu Ting was even more surprised: "You mean... there is a secret passage here?"

Huo Yan: "It's not surprising that such an organization can take root."

"Can you find it?"

"Trying."

Not long after that, Huo Yan pressed the button on the mountain wall and found a few places hidden by hidden stones. He turned and pressed it in some unknown pattern, and suddenly a small hillside actually grew out. On the side of it, There is an open trap!

"You can really..." Gu Ting was surprised, "Why didn't you move at that time?"

Huo Yan: "At that time, I didn't expect that there would be a secret passage."

I didn't expect others to expose the secret passage so blatantly.

When he returned to Jiuyuan, the more he thought about it, the more he thought about it, and when he was not sick, he would draw the terrain he remembered that night, and study it with the senior officials in the Zhenbei Army. He didn't get a definite result at first, and he was not in a hurry. , On the contrary, the research is right.

"Do you still remember the brochure you gave me? The one that the governor's daughter Fang Liuli asked you to hand over?"

"remember."

"That drawing helped a lot."

It was also because of the enigmatic drawing that he became more and more suspicious and studied it so deeply.

Ye Pengzhen looked at the dark door with a dazed expression, and murmured: "I knew it was right to find you..."

The next moment, she lifted her foot and ran in!

Gu stopped and didn't catch her, she had already run away!

"Don't worry, wait for us! I don't know what's going on inside, what if there is an agency? What if no one is inside!"

He quickly grabbed Huo Yan's hand and ran inside.

Inside is a densely dark space, with an oil lamp propped high on the wall. I don't know what kind of oil is used. The smell is a bit pungent, and there is very little light.

The road is not too narrow, and there is no problem for three people to walk side by side, but there are many things on the ground, clothes, shoes, hairpins, purses, and bloodstains... all kinds of sundries, messy, it doesn't look like after a fight, but more like a rush Many people evacuated during the period, and no one could care about anything dropped.

Except for the unpleasant smell, it is very quiet here, there is no movement, only the occasional sound of water dripping, I don't know where it comes from, sometimes it sounds far away, sometimes it sounds close, probably because of the echo.

It seems that there is no one around, so there is no need to worry about safety, as long as you know where the mechanism is and you can enter and exit.

Gu Ting and the two quickly found Ye Pengzhen, because the front was a dead end, to be precise, it was a dead end made by an agency, and only when it was opened could there be a way out.Ye Pengzhen couldn't open it, so she could only wait for them to come over.

Huo Yan just studied it some time ago, this should not be a problem for him——

"what?"

"What's wrong?" Gu Ting's heart trembled, "Can't open it?"

Huo Yan snorted, very domineering, Gu Ting's heart immediately fell to the ground, the meaning is too clear, don't worry about it, who is the master, how can there be such a possibility that he can't open it?

The prince handsomely opened the mechanism, and the wall was divided into two halves, revealing the road behind. Then he slowly explained: "I was surprised because this is a mechanism that can only be opened outside."

This time, Ye Pengzhen's mood recovered slightly, and she didn't run in impulsively, and followed the two of them.

The road was still wide and quiet, without any sound, but the smell of blood became stronger and stronger, and untreated corpses were also found.The ventilation is not good, the corpse is rotting, and the smell can be imagined.

Gu Ting covered his nose, he didn't want to look at it, but when he passed by, he felt that this person's clothes were a bit strange, isn't the material too good?And somewhat familiar...

After only one more look, he suddenly pulled Huo Yan back: "Huo Yan, look at him, is he, is he—"

Huo Yan saw strange dead people, he had seen all kinds of things, he didn't shy away, walked over and squatted down, looked carefully, and said: "You guessed right, you do know this person, it is Li Gui."

There is an old eunuch named Li Gui in the palace. Last year during the Jiuyuan War, he went with You Dachun and served as the supervisor of the army, but the whole process has been drifting away, not caring about anything, not participating in any rounds, just playing himself out , did not arouse anyone's suspicion.When he arrived in the capital, he was Concubine You's servant first, and then he served Emperor Jianping, seeing that he was very capable.

How could such a person die in Jinyang, a secret path organized by a bandit den?

Gu Ting was greatly shocked, why was Li Gui able to leave the palace?What are you doing here?But what can he do as a servant, of course he is doing things for his master, and his master...is the current emperor, Emperor Jianping!

"So...the emperor knows about this bandit den??"

This is incredible.

Huo Yan: "Maybe, I just found out."

It seems that there is a big secret hidden in Jinyang City, and many people are chasing after it.

When we got here, there were obvious signs of fighting, there were sword scratches on the wall, and there were also blood splatters. Gu Ting and the three were worried that they might miss some information, so they didn't chat with each other afterward. .

After walking for an unknown amount of time, an accident really happened.

Suddenly a long sword came from the darkness and stabbed straight at Huo Yan who was walking in the front!

Huo Yan pushed Gu Ting smoothly, and Gu Ting and Ye Pengzhen stuck together to a farther and safer wall, while he himself took out his dagger, and with a 'bang' sound, he blocked the dark sword coming from the head!

The owner of the long sword didn't react badly, he immediately turned around and came again after failing to make a blow, but Huo Yan was afraid of fighting?If you dare to come, I dare to go, swords collided, sparks flew everywhere, full of irrepressible bloodshed and violence.

In this fight, even if the vision is not good, Gu Ting can understand it. The opponent seems to react quickly and seems difficult to deal with, but in fact, if he puts all his strength, the opponent will retreat further. It's just that his body is a bit slippery, Huo Yan I couldn't catch him for a while.

Slippery...

Gu Ting feels a little familiar, who is it?But this fight, Huo Yan must win.

Soon, the other party was injured and let out a muffled groan, feeling more familiar...

Before Gu Ting could figure it out, Ye Pengzhen had already rushed forward: "Stop hitting!"

She suddenly hugged the owner of the long sword: "It's me..."

The man stopped immediately, the sword fell to the ground, and his voice was hoarse: "Xiaozhen?"

Of course Huo Yan also stopped, looking back at Gu Ting.

Gu Ting took a few steps forward: "Ting... Ye?"

But this question is a bit redundant, Ye Pengzhen has already pulled off the man's black scarf, it is Ting Ye.

The man's condition is not good. If he stays in such a place for several days, no one's condition will get better.Ye Pengzhen touched the wound on his body, her eyes were reddish, and tears fell down: "You Zhang Yu...you called me Xiaozhen again."

Ting Ye tightened his clothes, tried his best to cover the wound on his body, and sighed softly: "Why... did you find this place?"

"Why?" Ye Pengzhen suddenly became angry, "Because you are here! Don't pretend to be confused, Bi Luo Huang Quan, where is your Tingye, I, Ye Pengzhen, will be there! If you don't want me, I will chase you even if I die ! I said that I want you to remember it forever and make you feel guilty forever, whether it is life or death, you can't get rid of me!"

Ting Ye was quiet for a long time, and finally let go: "Sorry, I was wrong."

Ye Pengzhen: "Admitting your mistakes is useful for Linlang Pavilion to release so many new jewelry every month!"

Ting Ye: "Okay, I'll buy them all for you when we go out."

"You son of a bitch...how did you get hurt like this?" Ye Pengzhen touched his wound, feeling distressed, "If I don't come, do you really dare to die here?"

Ting Ye gently rubbed her head: "I'm fine, don't cry."

The waiting time was too long, and Ye Pengzhen didn't know whether to cry or laugh when the other party let go. In the end, all her emotions turned into strength, and she wrapped her hands around the back of his neck, lowered her mouth, and bit his lip hard.

Ting Ye: "Don't, someone..."

Ye Pengzhen couldn't care less about this, she really gnawed at him and glared at him: "Are you still running away?"

Ting Ye had no choice but to say, "I'm afraid I won't be able to escape."

Ye Pengzhen: "Who am I?"

"My wife," Ting Ye looked at her with deep eyes, "My Ting Ye's wife, Ye Pengzhen."

Only then was Ye Pengzhen satisfied, she turned her head and glared at Gu Ting: "Don't laugh! Pretend I haven't seen you eating with the prince!"

Gu Ting: ...

My sister is so fierce that I can't afford to provoke her.

Ting Ye squeezed Ye Pengzhen's hand reassuringly, stood up straight, and saluted Huo Yan earnestly: "Thank you, my lord, for your help. I will never forget your life-saving grace!"

Huo Yan: "It's nothing, just a few agencies."

Ting Ye's eyes darkened: "I also know it's a mechanism, but I haven't found anything after many days of research. If you didn't come, I'm afraid I won't be able to last long..."

As he spoke, his eyes darkened and he fell limp.

Ye Pengzhen was in a hurry: "Tingye! What's wrong with you, Tingye! Wake up!"

I had no choice but to let go of everything first, rush back the same way, and go back to the city to ask for a doctor.

The result is not bad, Tingye looks very bad, but in fact, most of his body is slightly injured, and he hasn't eaten for many days, lost blood and mental exhaustion, just now he couldn't hold on and fainted, the wound was treated, medicine was applied, and he was fed. Ginseng soup, give porridge first when you wake up, and it will be fine after a few days...

Ye Pengzhen doubled the consultation fee and sent the doctor away, instead of going to rest, she stayed in Ting Ye's room.

Gu Ting: "Aren't you going to sleep for a while?"

She also looks bad, her eyes are still blue.

"No," Ye Pengzhen smiled, "I see that he is fine now, and he can't sleep at all. It's hard work for you, do you want to take a rest?"

Things went so smoothly this time, Gu Ting felt that he had only ridden a horse once, and was still being hugged by Huo Yan. He wasn't tired at all, and it wasn't dark yet... What are you resting for?

He glanced at Huo Yan, Huo Yan nodded slightly, and he was not tired at all, and he didn't want to sleep now.

On the contrary, Ye Pengzhen's state seemed a little unbearable, this sudden emotional change hurts the most, Gu Ting thought for a while, and then said: "Would you like to talk about your affairs?"

He thought about it, these words were not superficial, and their friendship was no longer as simple as a simple exchange of human feelings.

"Okay."

Ye Pengzhen also has the desire to talk about it now: "However, I have to wait for him to wake up and tell you about his affairs. Even I don't know very well. I can chat casually about my affairs with him."

She became interested, and her expression became lively again: "Look at me, I forgot, I have been busy for so long, and I haven't eaten yet, I asked the following to serve a few dishes, let's talk while eating"
