In the martial arts world, he threatens Yin Susu from the start.

He saw two women dressed as palace maids running towards him in a disheveled state.

A large number of imperial guards were chasing after them.

The woman was in her thirties and had a certain attractiveness.

However, the heroic spirit and resolute look between her brows added a lot of charm to her overall appearance.

The other woman was quite different; even though she looked flustered, she remained charming and beautiful.

Her movements were graceful and elegant as she ran.

The palace maid's attire looked quite out of place on her.

This woman is none other than Su Quan.

Gu Hanyuan's surprise stemmed from this.

He naturally also discovered the "exorcising evil spirits" at the Ciren Palace.

However, after the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden appeared, there was no longer any room to pay attention to her.

When everything settled down, Su Quan was nowhere to be found in Ciren Palace. Only a furious Mao Dongzhu was directing the "Evil-Repelling Guards" to search everywhere.

Unexpectedly, we ran into each other at this moment.

When the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden appeared, her oppressive power that shattered the void was incredibly terrifying.

The people in the palace were all pinned down and unable to move, and the "Evil-Repelling Guards" who were besieging Su Quan were also forced to stop.

After the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden was tricked by Gu Hanyuan and expelled from Wu Xingyun's body, the pressure of the shattered void dissipated, and Su Quan took the opportunity to escape.

Logically speaking, Su Quan, who was unfamiliar with the layout of the palace, should not have been able to escape the pursuit of the "Evil-Repelling Guard".

However, at this moment, another woman, Tao Hongying, saved her.

Tao Hongying was Zhu Meichu's maid, and she infiltrated the Qing Dynasty palace for more than ten years.

As the world develops differently, the fates of the characters naturally change as well.

Before the Chongzhen reign ended, Tao Hongying was one of the maids who took care of the young Zhu Meichu.

Unlike the other maids who either fled or moved with the main group, she chose to stay in the palace as an undercover agent.

Empress Xiaojielie, the wife of Emperor Chongzhen, had been very kind to her.

When Li Zicheng captured Yanjing (Beijing), Emperor Chongzhen hanged himself on Coal Hill, and Empress Zhou, a virtuous and filial woman, also hanged herself in her palace on Emperor Chongzhen's orders.

Emperor Chongzhen was one of the few emperors in history whose harems were not insulted when his country was destroyed.

All concubines, from the empress down, were ordered to hang themselves. Those who refused to die were killed by him personally, thus preserving the dignity of the Han dynasty.

No matter how incompetent Emperor Chongzhen was, at least he had undeniable backbone.

Tao Hongying stayed in the palace as an undercover agent. Although it was unknown who her master was, her martial arts skills were not weak and were comparable to Hai Dafu's.

That's why he was able to remain hidden in the palace for more than ten years.

It could be said that there was no secret in the palace that she didn't know.

She knew everything about Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's affair with Dorgon, and about the fake Empress Dowager Mao Dongzhu's murder of Consort Dong'e.

Even among the few who know the true secrets of the Forty-Two Chapters Sutra.

In terms of undercover ability alone, Tao Hongying is far superior to Mao Dongzhu.

Unfortunately, I still didn't manage to get a single copy of the "Forty-Two Chapters Sutra".

Mao Dongzhu obtained the "Forty-Two Chapters Sutra" hidden in the Imperial Study from Wei Xiaobao, which immediately caught Tao Hongying's attention.

They planned to seize the opportunity to steal it from Ciren Palace.

However, due to Wutian's influence, Mao Dongzhu dismissed eunuchs and palace maids for a long time.

As a result, Tao Hongying could never find an opportunity to sneak into Ciren Palace.

Taking advantage of the palace turmoil caused by Gu Hanyuan, she finally managed to sneak into Ciren Palace today, only to unexpectedly discover Su Quan being besieged by the "Evil-Repelling Guard".

Although it was too late and she didn't hear Su Quan and Mao Dongzhu's conversation, she was unaware of Su Quan's background.

However, based on the idea that the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and besides, Su Quan obviously knew that Mao Dongzhu was a fake empress dowager.

Tao Hongying had always harbored the idea of ​​exposing the fake empress dowager and causing turmoil in the Qing Dynasty.

They were just struggling because they had no evidence and no one to help pass on the message.

Therefore, he stepped in to help Su Quan get out of trouble.

Tao Hongying naturally had no intention of fighting against the "Evil-Repelling Guard".

Instead, relying on his greater familiarity with the palace layout, he led Su Quan to evade the pursuit of the "Evil-Repelling Guards".

Su Quan was unaware of Tao Hongying's purpose, but she still followed suit and escaped.

To make things easier, Tao Hongying had Su Quan change into a palace maid's clothes.

The two seized an opportunity to leave the palace, only to run into the late-arriving chief eunuch, Duolong, leading a large group of imperial guards.

At this time, countless palace maids and eunuchs were fleeing from the palace.

Tao Hongying and Su Quan appear to be just one of them.

However, Su Quan's stunning beauty aroused Duolong's suspicion.

Some even speculated that it might be a concubine trying to escape from the palace.

They stepped forward and questioned him.

Su Quan wasn't a real palace maid, so she couldn't possibly answer that question.

Feeling guilty and worried that the "Evil-Repelling Guards" would catch up if they dragged on, he killed several imperial guards and broke through the encirclement.

Seeing that things had come to this point, Tao Hongying had no choice but to run away with Su Quan.

As a result, they coincidentally ran into Gu Hanyuan, who was preparing to leave the palace with Luo Bing.

Upon seeing Gu Hanyuan, Su Quan, on a sudden inspiration, called out:

"Young master, save me!"

Chapter 632: Two More Women Abducted from the Palace

Su Quan didn't recognize Gu Hanyuan's identity for a moment.

However, she had witnessed Gu Hanyuan and Wu Xingyun's battle in the sky.

Knowing that Gu Hanyuan was an unparalleled expert who was hostile to the Qing Kingdom, she had a sudden inspiration and asked him for help.

Gu Hanyuan felt a little strange.

When he discovered that the "Evil-Repelling Guards" were besieging Su Quan, he had already planned to face her using the identity of Wu Tian.

If Su Quan is captured by Mao Dongzhu, then take advantage of the situation and take her in.

As a result, Su Quan not only escaped the pursuit of the "Evil-Repelling Guards," but also happened to run into him.

In that case, it would be inappropriate to face her using the identity of Wutian anymore.

Gu Hanyuan also recognized Tao Hongying.

I've seen her try to sneak into Ciren Palace many times, but I've just been too lazy to pay her any attention.

Given the relationship between Gu Hanyuan and Zhu Meichu, Tao Hongying could barely be considered an ally.

Wu Tian's identity makes it inconvenient for him to contact her.

Now is just the right time.

Luo Bing felt a strange sensation in her heart.

This is because Su Quan was too beautiful; even dressed as a palace maid, her beauty could not be concealed.

Especially when she saw Gu Hanyuan staring intently at Su Quan, she immediately felt somewhat uncomfortable.

For some reason, I suddenly had a strong urge to wash off the disguise on my face.

Duolong arrived with his imperial guards, shouting and yelling.

He shouted at Su Quan:

"Don't even think about escaping! To be chosen by His Majesty and become a concubine is a dream come true for countless women, and you actually think you can escape from the palace!"

Duolong, in his arrogance, concluded that Su Quan was a concubine who wanted to escape from the palace.

Upon hearing this, Su Quan, feigning weakness, went along with the plan and pleaded:

"Emperor Kangxi forcibly took me into the palace. Please, sir, save me from this inferno!"

Su Quan was already stunningly beautiful.

At this moment, she feigned a weak and tearful appearance, truly looking pitiful.

Especially her sweet and charming voice, which makes one's heart flutter.

Few men could resist the charm of Su Quan's appearance.
