Chapter 236
Du Zhong briefly reported the situation in the front yard to the old lady: there are not many officers and soldiers outside the gate, but reinforcements are arriving one after another. To ensure safety, masters are invited to enter the dark room first. The secret passage is quite far away, and it will be impossible to guard it at that time. Even if the officers and soldiers find the entrance to the dark room, the ladies must have escaped and moved to another place .

As for the exit of the secret passage, there is someone you can trust to take care of it, so don't worry.

After Du Zhong finished speaking, he bowed to the old lady, the wife, and the young lady, and still had to go back to the front yard—even if the Hou Mansion couldn't hold it, he would not be able to retreat until the last moment!

When turning around, Yiqing saw Du Zhong's flickering eyes glance towards her quickly. She didn't think that this kid was worried about the young lady. Behind her were two girls, Hua Yu and Yun Ping, who still couldn't handle it. I understand, does Eucommia like Huayu or Yunping?
Alas, escape is the most important thing now, I can't care about these nosy things!
Du Zhong left, and pressed the switch from the outside to seal the secret door, the room was dark as if it was night, and in the silence, only the girls were crying.

The butler took the flint and lit the torch, and took the lead to enter the narrow and narrow secret passage opened by Du Zhong. Chunnuanqiuju followed the old lady behind her, followed by three girls, Mrs. Fang Zheng, Mrs. Zheng, Yiqing and Wang Yaozhen, As well as the maids and servants brought by each of them, there were more than 30 people in the group, stumbling, walking slowly and hurriedly along the dark passage.

The damp and cool dark passageway is full of cobwebs, perhaps because of the heavy rain just now, water droplets drip from the roof from time to time, and the big butler walking in front with a broom in his hand has disturbed how many cobwebs, lost The spiders in the homeland are crawling around, grabbing a thin thread and floating around. When the opportunity is right, they will run directly on someone's head and wander around. The old lady couldn't bear it at such an old age. Mrs. Fang Zheng yelled, Mrs. Zheng frowned, with a bitter face, and tightly grasped Yiqing's hand. Yiqing suppressed the fear in her heart and forced herself to Keep calm and keep comforting Mrs. Zheng: "Mother, don't be afraid, they are also very panicked, and they are still afraid of us!"

Let alone the pampered girls, they shouted earth-shatteringly and cried miserably. If they hadn't been walking underground, Yiqing would never have let these people escape together.

The butler led the way ahead, sweating all over his head and body, and led the escape team with the utmost patience, moving forward very slowly, stopping and stopping, and sometimes the people behind He couldn't keep up, so he had no choice but to drive forward and come back to meet him. He didn't know how long he had been walking, but he felt very tired, not only tired physically, but also mentally. Once people are safely sent out of the secret passage, everything will be fine!
The butler didn't finish his thoughts, when he suddenly realized that something was wrong, he put his ear against the wall and listened carefully: he heard the sound of quick and quick footsteps!Someone came in from the entrance and rushed towards this side, almost catching up with the team!
The butler's face turned blue with fright, if the opponent came, these weak ladies like tofu would be finished!When Master Hou comes back, how can I explain it?
He didn't care too much, and shouted anxiously: "Don't cry! It's important to run for your life! I'm afraid someone will be chasing you later!"

After getting this sentence, the women were silent for a while, and then let out a low sob. The old lady was already out of breath at this time, and Yiqing asked Hua Yu to say a few words on her behalf, to the effect of encouragement Everyone mustered up their courage and accumulated strength, striving to escape from birth with the butler.

She thought that the phrase "I'm afraid someone will be chasing you later" that the butler said was a smoke bomb to stimulate everyone to leave quickly. If she had known it was true, she would not have bothered to bother.

Everyone calmed down and walked obediently, but after only two or thirty steps, someone came up from behind with a torch!
The maids and women walking at the end of the line noticed that they were being chased by, and immediately let out screams of panic, and the people who came had to stand still, and waited for them to scream before speaking, and people could see clearly , it's not bad guys, but Eucommia and two tall guards!

Du Zhong passed the maids and women, went to Yiqing and Mrs. Zheng first, and saluted with a smile. Yiqing felt that he was very excited, and his expression was relaxed, and he returned to his previous smiling face, and there was a little hope in his heart for no reason. .

Sure enough, Du Zhong said: "The back door was broken first, and then the front door was also breached. We had given up guarding and fled separately. A large number of officers and soldiers entered the mansion, but when they were searching and looting everywhere, they all retreated suddenly... Only then did we know: King Qin and Lord Hou returned to the capital according to the order, and after a half-day contest with King Wei, they have broken through the south gate and entered the capital!"

Yiqing was overjoyed, and asked the result directly: "That is to say, the King Qin faction has controlled the capital now? Have they succeeded?"

"Yes! It should be so! As soon as the Marquis entered the city, he sent Gan Song to lead a team of cavalry to reinforce and guard the Marquis Mansion. Our guards didn't run far, and all came back! Now the superiors are packing up, and the officers and soldiers rushed in. , broke a lot of things!"

Mrs. Zheng shed tears: "Amituofo! If things are broken, they will be broken, as long as people are here!"

Yiqing happily pushed Du Zhong: "The old lady is at the front, go and report it!"

"Hey!"

Du Zhong agreed, and hurried forward, the old lady's cries sounded from the secret passage: "Little Du Zhong, where is my precious grandson? Where is he?"

Du Zhong coaxed again and again: "Old lady! Don't be sad, old lady! It's all because I can't bear it. If you can stay longer, you won't have to suffer anymore! Lord Hou has already entered the city, and Qin Wang It’s time to enter the palace, our Hou Mansion is fine, it’s all right! Old lady, I’ll carry you up, let’s go back to Anhe Hall and sit properly, waiting for the Hou Ye to come back!”

"Okay! Okay! Let's go back quickly! Go back and wait for my precious grandson... I don't want to stay here anymore, spiders are crawling everywhere, and a mouse ran under my feet, making my soles hurt..."

Yiqing burst out laughing: This old lady would really be the first to sue the wicked, she stepped on a mouse, and she said it was the mouse that bit her foot!
Handing the torch to the little girl, Du Zhong carried the old lady on his back, and the two guards who followed each carried Mrs. Fang Zheng and Mrs. Zheng on their backs. Hua Yu and Yun Ping supported Yi Qing. Man, in a good mood at this time, happily walked out the same way.
