Chapter 840

After Xiao Han led the Royal forbidden army and surrounded the house in front of him with the people of the five cities army and Horse Department, he immediately let people rush in. But when they searched, they didn't even find the shadow of people. They knew that Luo qingluan and Nalan night had left.

"There must be a secret way. Search it for me!" Xiao Han was furious, "we must catch them!"

He has made a military order. If he can't catch Nalan night and Luo qingluan with so many people, he will be dealt with by military law!

The forbidden troops swarmed in, but after a search, they found nothing. Xiao Han's heart sank. Even if he didn't catch anyone, he should know their movements. Where did he escape? If you don't know anything, how can you make a job when you go back?

"I don't believe it. He ran so fast in Nalan night! The whole capital has been blocked. Where else can he escape? There must be ghosts..." Xiao hanshun walked back and forth along the residence and personally inspected the suspicious places. "In a short time, they can't fly far even if they have wings. They must still be here!"

"Someone!" He shouted.

The two guards immediately came forward: "my Lord!"

"Dig me three feet and find the king and Princess of Chu. They must have hidden and didn't run away!" Xiao Han said angrily, staring at suspicious places everywhere.

Just then, someone hurried to report and said excitedly, "report, sir! A secret road was found in the garden, which seems to go straight to the secret room at the bottom of the lotus pool, but the entrance was damaged and can't get in!"

Xiao Han immediately laughed: "ha ha ha, what did I say? Look, fortunately, I'm smart and didn't leave. Come on, dig the entrance for me and catch the king and Princess of Chu alive! If you catch them first, you will get a reward of 1000, plus one rank! If you take down their heads, you will get the same reward!"

Du Jiang, commander of the army and horses Division, said suspiciously, "I'm afraid not. How could the king of Chu block the exit and hide himself in it? He's not afraid he can't get out?"

Xiao Han turned his mouth and thought it was Du Jiang who wanted to deceive himself, and then he caught Nalan alive and made meritorious contributions, Then he patted him on the shoulder and said, "Lord Du, don't you understand this? What's the mind of the king of Chu? Can you guess it as an ordinary person? The more impossible it is, the more he will be like this. Although he can't come out, he's also a subordinate! When we leave, his subordinates will get in and let him out. Don't you deceive us? I won't be fooled by him!"

It is indisputable that Xiao Han stood outside the rockery in the garden and stared. He watched the people lift the entrance. All kinds of people were busy, moving out the stones blocking the door and stacking them next to each other.

After a while, someone hurried to report: "Lord Xiao, it's not good. The stone was too heavy and collapsed. Two soldiers and horses were pressed under it."

"What?" Du Jiang's face sank.

Xiao Hancai didn't pay attention to the pressure on his two men. He only cared about how he couldn't dig: "Lord Du, your people are too careless to let you get an entrance like this. When will you get it? In case the king and Princess of Chu run away, everyone will have bad luck!"

Hurried to the entrance and saw that it was indeed a mess. Not only did the stones at the entrance collapse, but they didn't know how they did it. They even affected the rockery above. Countless soil and gravel mixed with rockery, all fell down and directly buried the entrance.

"It's just..."

Xiao Han was so angry that he became angry in front of Du Jiang and directly commanded his forbidden Army: "don't do it quickly, dig it for me!"

The guard carefully said: "my Lord, I'm afraid I can't. I was too anxious before, but I found out... It was a broken dragon stone, at least three feet thick. Once it was put down, the non starting mechanism can't open it!"

Broken dragon stone?

Such a thick barrier?!

Just then, Xiao Han was happy again: "OK, OK, it's the broken dragon stone. It's such a strong defense. It seems that the king of Chu and the princess of Chu must hide inside. They just want to sneak away when we can't attack. No way!"

A turn in his head, he said loudly: "come on, find gunpowder immediately and blow up the broken dragon stone for me!"

The crowd ran away and hurried to find gunpowder.

When the gunpowder was found, two barrels of gunpowder were carefully transported to the carriage and pulled over. When the position was set and the lead wire was buried, everyone fled far away to avoid being timely by the power wave of the explosive. The guard suddenly thought of something.

"Sir, what if... What if the king of Chu is killed?"

"Wouldn't it be just right to blow up!" Xiao Han laughed and became more and more proud.

If these explosives can kill Nalan night and Luo qingluan, isn't he making great achievements? At the thought of possible promotion, Xiao Han immediately hid far away and asked people to quickly ignite explosives and destroy the broken dragon stone.

Hiding in the distant Pavilion, Xiao Han and Du Jiang watched nervously. They saw a faint spark from the lead, which shortened quickly and gradually spread towards the entrance. Suddenly, something flashed in his mind, but he couldn't catch it quickly.

What do you think of

Suddenly, Du Jiang's eyes widened and blurted out, "come on, stop!"

You can't blow it up!

How could he forget that although those explosives could break the dragon stone, they were so powerful that they naturally blew everything around. In front of the entrance is the lotus pond. Once the explosive explodes, I'm afraid the whole lotus pond will pour back. The secret room below

Boom, boom!

The astonishing explosion had sounded, and the eardrums of the people were buzzing and shaking.

With a loud crash, countless torrents rose from the sky, like pouring rain, mixed with countless catapults of rubble and rubble, sweeping across a radius of tens of feet.

"Ah..."

"Help! Water, what a big water..."

"My eyes! My eyes can't see..."

The people shouted in panic and got drowned one by one. Even Xiao Han, who was hiding far away, was affected and cooled by the pool water falling from the sky. But he couldn't care. He stared at the front and saw that the whole rockery had been destroyed, as if it had never existed, and the lake poured in, and the entrance could not be seen at all.

"No, the entrance! No, everyone, surround all, don't let anyone go!"

Xiao Han was shocked. He knew that Nalan, the king of Chu, was powerful at night. If they hid inside, the broken dragon stone blocked most of the explosion power. He was afraid that he was safe at all. If he and his woman run away, everything he has just done will be in vain.

At the command, the whole lotus pond should be surrounded no matter how chaotic it is.

All the people of the Imperial Guard and the army and horses department were in full readiness, holding guns and knives nearby, staring at the chaotic lotus pool one by one, nervous and inexplicable. I saw bubbles surging madly in the water, a huge whirlpool spinning constantly, and I couldn't see anything at all during the mixing of countless gravel and silt.

For fear of letting Nalan night go, Xiao Han ordered with wide eyes that those who return water should go directly into the water to encircle and never let anyone go.

Under the strict order and heavy reward, naturally, some people went into the water one after another and searched closely. However, the lotus pool was too large, and more than a dozen people went into the water, but they didn't find it for a while and a half. After a while, I found nothing, not even a body.

"No, sir, nothing..." the drenched men came to report: "my subordinates dived in person and found that the secret road was full of water, but the king and Princess of Chu... Were not in it at all!"

"What?" Xiao Han's face changed greatly and his body was shaky.

At this moment, Du Jiang finally understood that he and others had been fooled and glared at Xiao Han angrily: "well, Lord Xiao, this is what you said. The king of Chu and the princess of Chu must be hiding inside. Now they have wasted so much time, but they found nothing. The king of Chu and they have already escaped!"

He brushed his sleeve fiercely: "it's all your responsibility to release the king of Chu. Go and explain it to your majesty yourself!" With that, he turned around and left.

On the other hand, Nalan night and Luo qingluan naturally did not hide in the so-called secret room, but sneaked into the palace through the secret road of the dark night hall, directly to another place that attached great importance to the Dongwan royal family.

——It is located in the Imperial Palace, on the side of Jinshui bridge.

This is where Luo qingluan is going!

Looking at the open and flat courtyard surrounded by corridors and veranda, Luo qingluan felt a solemn and profound atmosphere coming from a distance. The ancient cypresses outside the wall are shady, verdant and silent, and the courtyard inside the halberd gate is empty. You can't even see a personal shadow.

A bronze fire stove stands in the southwest. Three huge incense sticks with a height of one person are inserted directly on it. The smoke curls up and rises slowly.

Luo qingluan and Nalan walked in front at night, like entering an uninhabited place.

"Princess, why is there no one here?" Yong'an asked curiously.

With a faint smile, Luo qingluan asked, "do you know where this is?"

Yongan looked east and west again, wondering and shaking his head: "my subordinates don't know, but since I entered the palace, it is naturally the place of Dongwan royal family. The princess should be careful."

"This time we don't have to be careful, but they have to be careful." Luo qingluan strode forward with a smile.

Now that they have arrived here, they don't have to be afraid of their hands and feet. This is the imperial temple of Dongwan royal family and the home temple for worshiping their ancestors. If others dare to act lawlessly and do whatever they want here, they are afraid to destroy any grass and trees. Dongwan emperor will not spare him first?

She wants to see if Dongwan emperor dares to send troops here.

He went straight to the main hall dedicated to the throne of the royal family. Until he entered the hall door, Luo qingluan finally saw a palace man placing fruit offerings. As soon as he heard the voice behind him, he suddenly turned back and was stunned: "who are you... How dare you break into the temple without permission?"

Yuan Xing couldn't wait. He rushed over, grabbed the palace man's collar and raised him, laughing. The palace man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. He didn't know what had happened.

This is the imperial temple. No one dares to come except when the emperor worships. But what is the origin of these evil people in front of us?

Luo qingluan stood in front of the palace people, glanced at the memorial tablets in the main hall and said faintly, "go and tell emperor Dongwan to come and see us in person, and say that the king and Princess of Chu are waiting for him here."

……

Just received the news from Du Jiang, the commander of the army and Horse Department, that the king of Chu and the princess of Chu ran away. Emperor Dongwan was very angry and brushed the items in front of the imperial case all over the ground: "bastard, so many people can't catch a king of Chu, even his women. It's a bucket!"

Du Jiang immediately complained: "Your Majesty, if Xiao Tongling didn't go his own way, the king of Chu wouldn't run away..."

"Pa!" Another teacup smashed over. The splashing tea made Du Jiang frown, but he didn't dare to wipe it at all.

Emperor Dongwan was so angry that he was about to summon Prince Xiao Yuqi. He saw that Bao Quanan was whispering to a small eunuch, and then his face changed greatly.

Bao Quan'an hurried over and whispered a few words in Dongwan emperor's ear. The latter jumped up and changed his face: "what, the king of Chu and the princess of Chu are in the temple?"
