After having sex with a fake eunuch, I became the queen
Chapter 40 A Gamble
Ji Yin sneaked out of Xunfang Palace secretly, so he had to sneak back in as well. There was blood on his clothes, so he couldn't just walk in through the main gate. So he went around to a secluded place outside the wall of the backyard of Xunfang Palace and prepared to climb over the wall to get in.
Probably due to excessive blood loss, he felt dizzy and weak. The wall, which he could easily climb, now seemed out of reach. There was a slope next to the outer wall, with different distances from the ground to the edge of the wall. So he looked for a high slope where the wall was lower. When he was about to climb up the wall, he felt someone approaching from behind.
He instinctively turned around and rushed towards the person who was coming. In a flash, he had pinned a person down.
"My lord, my lord, it's me, it's me!" The person who was suppressed was none other than Lu Yi. He was very excited to see Ji Yin alive.
When Ji Ying saw that it was Lu Yi, he breathed a sigh of relief, and all the strength he had just gathered up with great difficulty was released.
Perhaps because he was too excited, Lu Yi hugged Ji Yin, turned over and pressed him under him again, then he lay on him and cried softly: "It's great, my lord, you are still alive, I thought I would never see you again, wuwuwu!"
"Alright, alright, I'm fine, aren't I? Get up!" Ji Ying felt that it was a bit inappropriate for two grown men to roll around on the grass like this, so he helped him sit up together, "Lu Yi, why did you run over here? Didn't you see the signal I left for you? It's very dangerous for you to run over like this."
"I saw it, but when I went to get the news from Ximen, he said that you, the front gate, seemed to have been arrested. After I passed the news that you were safe, I was still very upset. I thought I had to see the master with my own eyes to feel relieved, so I ran over here."
"What! Lu Yi, this is too outrageous. Are the rules of conduct set in vain? How could the marks I put there with my own hands be wrong? Do you know that breaking the rules is very dangerous?" Ji Ying's face immediately turned cold when he heard him say this. He thought about the loss of the South Gate today, and the survivors did not follow the rules and took such a risk. He immediately became angry.
"My lord... I... wuwuwu." Lu Yi started crying again like a young wife being scolded by her husband.
"Alright, alright, don't break the rules like this anymore. South Gate has already failed, what will West Gate say?" Seeing that he was crying even more bitterly than the woman, Ji Yin quickly softened his tone.
"Xi Men said... Oh, lord, blood! You are injured!" Lu Yi saw the blood on Ji Ying's body and hurried to check.
Ji Wei stopped him with a gesture: "It's okay, just tell me what Ximen said."
"He said Nanmen died in the line of duty." Lu Yi's voice was a little low.
"What about the news?" Ji Ying was not surprised.
"The news has been destroyed by Nanmen. Before his death, he misled the Yulin Army and said that he was a spy for the Wuyang rebels. The authorities did not suspect that he was from the Restoration Army."
Ji Wei heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard this: "Did Ximen tell me how Nanmen was exposed?"
"I don't know about that, but Ximen said that as soon as the news came out, he quickly sorted out the various information lines and found no problems in any link. Only the South Gate had an accident. It is very likely that he made some omissions in his actions and the Yulin Army noticed the clues."
"Well, if that's the case, it's a blessing in disguise. That's why I said that not following the rules is a taboo, otherwise you will lose the big picture for the small, endanger your own life, and may even endanger the grand plan of the Restoration Army. Lu Yi, please remember this!" Ji Yin heaved a sigh of relief again after hearing what Lu Yi said, and then took the opportunity to teach Lu Yi a severe lesson.
"Remember, my lord, don't take the risk of receiving any news again in the future." Lu Yi took the opportunity to hint at Ji Yin.
Ji Yin was choked and speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond.
"By the way, since the lord has escaped, what about the captured Qianmen?"
"It was King Loaves and Fish who replaced me."
"What? Wang Bingyu, what is going on?" Lu Yi was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped when he heard him say that.
Afterwards, Ji Yin told Lu Yi everything that happened to him at Shang Pharmacy.
At first, Lu Yi was moved to tears by Wang Bingyu's sincerity, but he was only moved for a moment. Suddenly, he realized something and immediately lost his composure: "My lord, this Wang Bingyu is a sissy. He saved you in a moment of excitement, but he has never received any spy training. If he can't stand the torture, he will definitely give you away!"
Ji Yin seemed to have thought of this problem a long time ago, and did not show any panic: "Then we can only take a gamble. By the way, this... sissy, please stop calling me that."
Ji Yi recalled the expression on Wang Bingyu's face when he saw him for the last time. He inexplicably felt inferior to him. He felt that if he were in his shoes, he would not be as resolute and brave as him. So when he heard Lu Yi say that he was a sissy, he didn't agree with him. "My lord, how can the restoration army rely on gambling? You just said that we should pay attention to the rules of conduct." Lu Yi seemed to be really anxious, and suddenly stood up and wanted to leave, "No, I have to think of a way!"
"Lu Yi, where are you going? Stop right there!" Ji Yin also stood up.
"I will inform Ximen to kill him and silence him. If this method doesn't work, send a message to all the secret agents and spies to ask them to find a way to help the master escape from the palace overnight."
"Lu Yi, come back here!" Ji Ying shouted in a low voice.
Lu Yi was yelled at so hard that he didn't dare to move forward.
"Lu Yi, do you think I haven't thought about it? Not to mention that Wang Bingyu is the one who saved me, how can he be killed without authorization? If he is really killed to silence him, Ximen will most likely be exposed. Ximen's position is very critical, don't you know? In addition, since the rebellion of Wang Yang, the palace gates have been guarded at night with layers of defense, so the two methods you mentioned may fail, and we will lose more secret agents and spies, and ultimately make the restoration army's plan unsuccessful. But if we take a gamble, even if he gives me away, it will only hurt me, and the restoration army's plan will still be there..."
"What! My lord, what are you talking about? If you are caught, what's the point of the restoration army's plan? What's the point of us continuing to act?" Lu Yi looked at Ji Yin with a strange look, as if he didn't recognize him... He didn't know what medicine his lord had taken, probably because he was moved and confused by Wang Bingyu's sincerity.
"Lu Yi, I used to think the same as you. I felt that I was the grand plan of the Restoration Army. If I died, what would the grand plan be? But today I suddenly don't think so. The grand plan is the grand plan. It is a grand plan for the people. It can still exist without me. Since I have willfully chosen to take the risk and go deep into this place, I must have the courage to take responsibility for everything and be ready to sacrifice at any time. The grand plan of restoration that has been planned for many years cannot be ruined just for me alone."
Ji Xun was really touched today - Nanmen's death in the line of duty, Wang Bingyu's sacrifice of his life. In the past, he thought it was normal for a secret agent to die in the line of duty at a critical moment, but today he witnessed with his own eyes a living person like Wang Bingyu who chose to step into the endless abyss without hesitation, and an inexplicable emotion in his heart could not be relieved for a long time.
No matter how humble Wang Bingyu was, no matter how weak he was and how he was always bullied, wasn't his life a life? Should he just sit back and enjoy everything that others had given him with their lives? Could he, a man of royal blood, have half the determination and dedication of a lowly eunuch? No matter what his reason was for choosing self-sacrifice.
"But, my lord, how can you be like us..."
"Don't say any more. If Wang Bingyu can survive tonight's torture, then the tortures that follow will not be able to harm him. So tonight is crucial. If he can get through tonight safely, you don't have to worry too much, Lu Yi."
Lu Yi seemed to want to say something else, but was stopped by Ji Ying's fierce look. He had no choice but to decide to leave.
Just as he turned around and took two steps, he heard the master behind him say, "Lu Yi, wait a minute, I'm climbing the wall and I don't have a ladder. Come over and lend me a hand and use it as a ladder."
Finally, with the help of Lu Yi, Ji Yu climbed over the wall and entered the inner wall of Xunfang Hall. He quickly returned to the room in the east side hall in the dark, and prepared to deal with the bloody clothes and wounds.
There were many vacant rooms in Xunfang Palace. When he moved in, he deliberately chose a room like this one, which was located in a remote corner without any village or shop nearby, naturally for convenience.
After entering the house, he waited quietly in the dark room for a long time. After making sure that there was nothing unusual, he lit the candle in the room and prepared to quickly change the bloody clothes on his body and dispose of them.
As for what will happen to him tonight? He can only leave it to fate. Can he sleep peacefully? He thought it would be a sleepless night, and he had to be ready at any time if Wang Bingyu couldn't bear it anymore and confessed him.
Just as I took out a set of clean clothes from the closet, I heard a very slight noise outside the house.
Ji Wei was suddenly startled - could it be that the Yulin Army came to arrest him? Isn't this too fast?
Then he quickly blew out the candle in the room and waited for a moment, but there was no further movement.
So he decided to check it out. In the dark, he quickly put on a clean robe he had just taken out to cover the blood on his body. Then, he squatted down and pulled out a short knife from the boot of one foot. After getting up, he walked to the door quietly, unbolted the door and opened it a crack.
"Fuzhi, it's me."
With a low voice, a person squeezed in through the crack of the door. This time, Ji Wei did not use the method of strangling or suppressing, because he recognized that it was Qiao Wan'er's voice. But he regretted it soon after. It was precisely because he recognized that it was her voice that he hesitated for a moment, allowing the person outside the door to squeeze in.
