Chapter 963
The palace lady was about 20 years old, and her appearance was quite steady and dignified. Like that young man, she didn't salute or say anything superfluous after seeing Wei Ying. Slowed down.

The guard on duty in front of the east gate saw the maid and Wei Ying who were following behind the maid with her head bowed deeply, and asked in a deep voice, "It's so late, what are you doing?"

The palace maid walked to a place not far in front of the guard who was shouting and stopped, with a decent smile on her face, she bent down and gave a salute, and said with a smile: "This servant is from Mrs. Lan's palace. Madam tasted the tea from the palace for dinner today. The snacks made in the small kitchen were very delicious, so I asked the small kitchen to make some more, and ordered the servants to take people out of the palace to deliver to Lord Yu, this is the badge given by Mrs. Lan to the servants."

Saying this, the court lady handed a waist card symbolizing the identity of the concubine to the guard's eyes.

The guard stepped forward and carefully confirmed that the badge in the maid's hand was indeed Mrs. Lan's, and then checked the snacks in the lunch box in the hands of Wei Ying and the young man, then took a step back and said in a deep voice: "The gate of the palace is about to close. It's locked, go back quickly!"

"Yes." The palace maid smiled and bowed again, and Shi Shiran led Wei Ying and another young man out of the Shen Palace from the east gate.

The three of them came out from the east gate and hurried away from Shen Palace under the cover of night, walking through the streets and alleys towards the south of the city until they could no longer see the corners of the tall buildings of Shen Palace. Ren just stopped in his tracks, turned around and faced Wei Ying, knelt down on one knee neatly, and whispered in unison: "This subordinate has seen the princess, the princess has suffered."

"You don't need to be too polite, just get up." Wei Ying responded lightly, and then said warmly: "The princess's ability to escape depends on the power of Lingcheng and the credit of the two of you. When the princess returns to Zao City, there must be a lot of rewards for Lingcheng and the two of you."

The two stood up, bowed their heads and said, "Thank you, princess."

Wei Ying paused for a moment, then asked lightly: "The city gate should be closed now, is there a way to get out of the city?"

"Respond to the princess's words." The court lady clasped her hands and replied, "In a house in the south of the city, a secret road leading directly to the outside of the city has been prepared. The princess will have someone to meet her after she leaves the city through the secret road."

"Then let's go." Wei Ying lowered her eyes, a trace of hesitation and hurt flashed away in her eyes.

It was already late at night, even though the maid and the young man were so close, they didn't see the hesitation in Wei Ying's eyes, they just responded to Wei Ying's words neatly, and led her to continue walking to the south .

As the maid said, a secret passage had been dug in a house very close to the city wall in the south of the city. When Wei Ying came out from the secret passage under the guidance of the maid, she was outside a certain mound in a mausoleum outside the city. It's no secret that the exit is located in such a place.

Everyone who had been waiting outside the exit of the secret passage greeted Wei Ying and let her get on the carriage. Then, including the two maids and eunuchs who brought Wei Ying out of the Shen Palace, a total of 13 people rode on horseback to guard the carriage. The carriage of horses and horses Xingye galloped away from Lingcheng.

It was deep at night, and a crescent moon in the sky sprinkled light like water, shining on the chariots and horses hurrying on the ground, but it couldn't shine inside the chariot.

So even if the curtain of the carriage was lifted by the wind while the carriage was galloping, no one outside would be able to see Wei Ying sitting alone in the dark carriage with an indelible sadness and reluctance on her face.
