Chapter 321 Breaking into the Palace at Night
Chapter 321 Breaking into the Palace at Night
At midnight, three ghostly figures floated into the Mo Yun Cavalry Camp.
After coaxing her son to sleep, Luo Li went to the brightly lit main room and continued to discuss the action plan with everyone.
Old Cai suddenly pricked up his ears and listened attentively, then smiled, "Princess, the peerless master you've been waiting for has arrived."
Luo Li stood up happily and was about to go out to greet them, but the door was pushed open and three figures walked in.
The leader was an old Taoist wearing a Taoist robe, with silver hair, three strands of silver beard, and holding a whisk. Behind him followed Wu Chizi and Xiao Jintai, who had grown a head taller.
Ever since she was almost used as a medicine cauldron by the demon Taoist Xuan Yinzi, Luo Li really had no good impression of Taoist robes. But knowing that this man was probably Zhao Defang's master Feng Xuanzi, she had no choice but to hold her nose and go forward to pay her respects.
With a perfunctory bow, he said, "Junior Luo Li, greetings to the senior."
Old Cai had already come over and knelt down, tears in his eyes, and his voice was choked with sobs: "This old slave greets the master."
Feng Xuanzi laughed in his heart and ignored his disciple's wife. He pulled up the loyal old servant and said, "Old Cai, you are so old, but you can still squeeze cat urine out of your eyes. Aren't you ashamed? Aren't you embarrassed?"
Old Cai wiped his tears and smiled, "Master, I haven't seen you for many years. Can't I help it?"
Zhao Defang's master is a man of character! Luo Li immediately took a liking to Feng Xuanzi and bowed sincerely, "I am your disciple Luo Li, meeting your master."
Feng Xuanzi then smiled at her faintly, and held out his hand to support her, saying, "No need to be polite! Seeing is believing. Your silly disciple's wife has a personality that really suits my taste."
Luo Li chuckled, "Master, you are an old man who looks like a fairy on the outside, but is humorous, playful and naughty on the inside. You are quite my taste."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Wu Chizi and Jin Tai hurried forward to greet him, "Disciple greets Master."
"...Disciple...grandson greets Grandmaster."
Luo Li glanced at Feng Xuanzi with a guilty conscience, waved at Wu Chizi, winked secretly, pulled up Xiao Jintai and said, "Jintai, you should still call me Aunt Luo. It's more intimate and nice."
Feng Xuanzi sat down and took the fragrant tea that Tingting offered him, and drank two sips. He glanced at Wu Chizi with his narrow phoenix eyes, "Your status has been reduced to the disciple of my disciple's wife, how dare you sit with me.
Go over there and stand with the younger generations."
Wu Chizi didn't say anything, picked up the teacup, and ran to the corner to stand.
Luo Li smiled awkwardly and said, "Master, please don't be angry. Let's stick to our own opinions. Although Wu Chizi and Gui Shou are my disciples, they are still your close junior brothers."
Feng Xuanzi took another sip of tea and said, "I'm not angry, nor do I mind. I'm just afraid that next year during the Qingming Festival, our master will be so angry that he will open his coffin and come to settle accounts with you."
Luo Li felt relieved and confident, "It's okay. If the master can open the coffin and come back to life, I will show him some of my special skills and make him willingly accept me as his master."
Everyone in the room couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing. Only Luo, a brainless man who didn't know how to respect his teacher, could straighten out this mess of seniority without a care.
After joking for a while, everyone felt more relaxed and happy. Luo Li told them the plan they had discussed.
Feng Xuanzi drank three cups of fragrant tea and immediately put down the cups. "Now that we have made the plan, let's act immediately!"
Siyu followed the Ghost Hand Poison Doctor and ten female military doctors to the battlefield. Ruhua and Tingting, who were left behind, worriedly persuaded the young ladies to stay in the barracks to look after the young master and not to follow them to break into the palace.
Luo Li insisted on going. How could she feel at ease staying in the military camp without knowing what kind of dangerous situations her mother, Yongqing, the emperor's sister-in-law and Xiao Wuji in the palace were facing?
He ordered: "Hong Gu, Mo Ming, you two are responsible for taking me to climb rooftops and walls."...
With 3,000 elite Moyun cavalrymen on standby, they arrived at the roadblock in front of the 20,000-strong imperial army camp. Seeing the massive army formation in front of them, Luo Li did not let them force their way in.
Luo Li rode his horse to the roadblock and shouted to Cheng Haonan who was standing in front of the army: "General Cheng, since we have already done the convenience, let's do it to the end!
Can your 20,000-strong army stop the charge of my elite Moyun cavalry? We are all soldiers of the Song Dynasty, so it is best not to kill each other. General Cheng, this princess advises you not to do evil!
As long as you rescue the emperor, I can ensure that no one in your Cheng family will die. What do you think? "
Cheng Haonan was silent for a moment with mixed feelings. Hearing the noisy sound of the soldiers talking behind him, he sighed in his heart and waved his hand to let them go!
Under the watchful eyes of the 20,000-strong army, the three thousand elite Mo Yun cavalry rode past on their horses through the avoided path.
He led the eight hundred female soldiers of the Big Foot Women's Corps waiting on the opposite side and rushed straight to the city gate.
Wu Chizi, Jin Tai, and Old Cai followed a few shadow guards into the city through the tunnel, controlled the guards on the city gate, and opened the gate.
Late at night, more than 3,800 cavalrymen galloped on the streets, the sound of horse hooves rolling past, breaking the tranquility of the night.
The common people sat in their beds in fear, listening to the noise outside, nervously wondering what big event had happened in the capital. For two consecutive nights, there was the sound of horses galloping by.
Luo Li was carried by Hong Gu and Mo Ming, flying on the roof. This experience of flying over the eaves and walls, and flying in the clouds, was really exciting and fun. It made people no longer anxious and nervous, but only excited.
When they arrived at the foot of the imperial city wall, Hong Gu and Mo Ming looked up at the high wall and wondered how they were going to carry the princess, who had no knowledge of light skills, up there.
Feng Xuanzi appeared behind them and said, "You two can just take her and fly upwards. I will lend you a hand."
Having received the promise from their senior, Hong Gu and Mo Ming whispered to each other and flew up with Luo Li...
This dry land can pull onions high enough to pull them up, Luo Li was frightened. Hong Gu and Mo Ming ran out of internal energy, and their bodies fell down. Just as their toes touched the wall, Feng Xuanzi, who followed closely behind, waved his whisk, and a gentle internal energy lifted them up and rushed upwards.
The two female heroes who landed on the city wall were filled with admiration in their hearts. This was the strength of a peerless master!
Luo Li in the middle didn't understand what was going on, so she praised in a low voice, "Hong Gu, inexplicably, this Qinggong is amazing!"
Luo Li, who often went in and out of the palace, pointed the way, "Go over there. The cunning little Wuji will definitely be with his mother, which will make it easier for us to rescue him."
Wu Chizi, Old Cai, and Jin Tai were in the front, Feng Xuanzi was following closely behind Luo Li and the other two, and six shadow guards were following closely behind, performing light skills and floating towards the direction of Shuning Palace.
