Duanmu An Guo had already hidden in Fang Jinse's palace for many days, the narrow space made him feel uneasy, his mood becoming more and more irritated.
But he could not go out, not only did the people of Dashun hate him now, the Emperor of Zong Sui also saw him as the number one enemy of the country, as long as he showed his face in this imperial palace, he would be killed immediately. But hiding like this was not a solution, there would be a day when Dashun would attack, at that time, would he not become a turtle in a jar?
He could not go out, he could not not go out, Duanmu An Guo's heart became more and more flustered by the day, he actually did not know how he should avoid this disaster. Even if there were still his people scattered around waiting for orders outside, how could he still have the ability to give orders now? What was the use of having people without being able to gather them? Fortunately, Fang Jinse and Yue Xin still had some conscience and did not treat him unfairly, and did not reveal his whereabouts. But he did not believe what they said about only acknowledging him as their father, in his opinion, everything that those two girls did was just to save their family.
Just as he was letting his thoughts run wild, the door to the secret room was pushed open from the outside, Fang Jinse came in.
Duanmu An Guo did not dare to be too forceful with Fang Jinse now, after all, he still needed to rely on her protection to survive for the time being. This girl was very smart, so smart that even though he had his suspicions, he could not find any flaws, even Fang Jinse's attitude when calling him father was sincere. But Duanmu An Guo never trusted people easily, he was a conspiracy theorist, he did not do anything for his daughter, on what basis should she acknowledge him as her father and repay him? He looked at the person who came in with a smile on his face, but he was complaining endlessly in his heart.
Fang Jinse glanced at Duanmu An Guo, naturally able to guess what he was thinking, but she was not anxious, as long as Duanmu An Guo did not die, nothing would happen to her family outside. Now that Duanmu An Guo was in her hands, it could be considered a mutual restriction, if her family died, she could kill this old thief in minutes. This old thief cherished his life and would definitely not joke around with his own life.
Her smile became even brighter, as she placed the food in her hands on the table. She then said to Duan Mu An Guo: "Father, good news. In another three days, Dashun would attack Zong Sui's capital. At that time, there would definitely be chaos in the imperial palace. Father could use this chance to escape. But after escaping the Imperial Palace, you must quickly escape the capital. Once Da Shun's army controls the entire capital, there will be no way to survive. "
Duan Mu An Guo's eyes lit up. They would attack the city in three days? So fast? It seemed that Dashun must have attacked with Heavenly Lightning and firearms along the way. He sneered, "Is Xuan Tianming angry? Attacking the city so quickly, he was looking for Zong Sui to take revenge for his wife and older brother! Very good, that little Emperor of Zong Sui wants to kill me right now, you didn't expect this right! Not only did he fail to kill me, he also became meat on the chopping board. Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianhua died in Zong Sui's territory. Based on Xuan Tianming's personality, tearing Li Jian apart would be considered light. He would most likely be made into meat sauce and fed to the dogs. "
Fang Jinse's heart turned cold when she heard this, her body also trembling slightly. Luckily, the lighting here was dim and Duan Mu An Guo could not see her abnormality. Forcefully suppressing the hatred in her heart, Fang Jinse spoke, but her face was filled with confusion: "That's not right! I heard that only Dashun's god-like Seventh Prince, Royal Consort Yu is still alive. Not only is she alive, she is also attacking the city with the Ninth Prince. She is currently just outside the capital! "
"What?" Duan Mu An Guo was shocked, "She is actually still alive?" He found this hard to believe. At that time in the city, they had clearly already blasted people into the minefield. That kind of explosion even caused half of the buildings in Tong City to collapse, how could Feng Yu Heng still be alive? When he fled in a hurry back then, he even lost an arm. He relied on the belief that Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianhua were both dead and that losing this arm was worth it to survive. Now, Fang Jinse actually told him that Feng Yu Heng was still alive, how could he swallow this anger? How was this possible?
He did not believe it at all, gritting his teeth and saying fiercely: "What kind of intentions do you have? Do you want to use that Feng Yu Heng to disturb my mental state? That Feng Yu Heng was blasted into pieces by my heavenly lightning long ago, there is definitely no possibility of her surviving! Don't spout nonsense! "
"Father." Fang Jinse took a step forward, placing her hand on his only remaining arm, "Father, how can Daughter lie to you. That Feng Yu Heng is really still alive, every time they took down a city in Zong Sui, she would open a Hundred Herb Hall in that city, and would even personally treat a few patients, gaining an extremely good reputation for herself. Now, the entire Zong Sui's people are very supportive of her, even the people in the capital are starting to look forward to Dashun's army attacking quickly, so that the Hundred Herb Hall can be opened in Dashun's capital. From today onwards, no matter how sick they are, they can be cured. Father, the current Zong Sui is no longer under the Li family's control, no one listens to the court anymore, even the government offices have been destroyed by the citizens. General Chunyu led his troops to surround the capital, but he is not preparing to fight against Dashun, he is guarding against the few tens of thousands of personal guards in Li Jian's hands. Now that Li Jian is being controlled by the Empress, he cannot run even if he wants to, Father should listen to Daughter's words and make preparations, once Dashun attacks the imperial palace, escaping in the chaos is the best plan. "
Duanmu Anguo gasped, Feng Yu Heng did not die, not only did she not die, she even built so many Hundred Herb Halls in Zong Sui. He could confirm that what Fang Jinse said was true, the place where Feng Yu Heng was at was a Hundred Herb Hall, other than that girl, no one else could open that kind of medical hall. But he just could not understand, how could Feng Yu Heng still survive after being blasted by that kind of lightning?
To Duanmu Anguo, this was an eternal mystery, what he needed to consider now was Fang Jinse's idea, escaping in the chaos. He nodded, "We can only do this." After saying this, he stared at Fang Jinse, asking her: "Why don't you ask where I am running to? Why don't you ask how to resolve the crisis of your foster parents? If I run, can you be sure that they will continue to live? Do you really believe that I will let them go? "
Fang Jinse was stunned, a monstrous hatred surging in her heart, but she suppressed it forcefully. She told Duanmu Anguo: "Daughter will not ask, Daughter said it long ago, you are Father, my only relative. Although the grace of raising was great, I have repaid it, I entered the palace and was favoured, Zong Sui's imperial family also gave them endless glory. They moved into a new residence, Foster Father was promoted to a third rank, these were all brought by me for them. The grace of raising, I have already repaid it, now Daughter wants to repay the grace of giving birth, because it was Father who brought Daughter into this world, in Daughter's heart, you are the closest. " When she said this, she even wiped away her tears, her acting skills were superb, "Father, Daughter only hopes that you can live well and live a long life."
Duanmu Anguo was almost moved by Fang Jinse, unfortunately, he had experienced many storms, what kind of things had he not seen before? Ever since he started sending these daughters out one by one many years ago, he no longer hoped that these daughters would feel any gratitude towards him. He had said to himself long ago, these daughters were stones to pave the way for his future, when he used them, he would throw them away when he did not use them. If the stones still had feelings for him, then the stones had become intelligent, all the more he could not keep them.
He looked at Fang Jinse, his face filled with endless gratitude, but he was sneering coldly in his heart, thinking that after a few more days, after he successfully escaped, he would definitely not allow this smart daughter to live in this world, otherwise, he would not be able to rest easy.
"Good child." He raised his hand and rubbed Fang Jinse's head, "Father is very gratified, after Father leaves, I will definitely make proper arrangements for you, I will not let you suffer any grievances."
"Thank you, Father." Fang Jinse leaned on Duanmu Anguo's knees, looking like an obedient daughter, but this father and daughter both had their own thoughts, scheming against each other.
Coming out from Duanmu Anguo's secret room, Yue Xin immediately went to her, looking around and seeing that there was no one around, she said softly: "The letter cannot be sent out, the palace is already controlled by Her Highness the Empress, even His Majesty is unable to come out from Qian He Hall, we need to think of another way."
Fang Jinse frowned tightly, think of another way, what other way could she think of? She did not expect Chun Yu family to act so decisively, controlling the palace, not only trapping His Majesty, but also trapping all of them. But she had to think of a way to send a letter out of the city, that letter had to be sent to Dashun's Ninth Prince and Ninth Prince's Imperial Concubine, she wanted to use Duanmu Anguo in exchange for her family's lives.
Yue Xin asked her: "Will Dashun agree? After all, even if we do not hand Duanmu Anguo over, he will not be able to survive being trapped in this palace, Dashun will find him sooner or later. "
"But if you do not agree to my conditions, I will take action first, killing that old thief." Fang Jinse became ruthless, "If my family cannot survive, why should I hand him over to someone else? I have to personally avenge my family to vent my hatred. So, Yue Xin, this was the same logic. Dashun killed the Seventh Prince, if the Ninth Prince did not kill Duanmu Anguo with his own hands, how could he vent the hatred in his heart? If he does not want Duanmu Anguo to die in someone else's hands, he must agree to my conditions. "
"But this letter cannot be sent out!" Yue Xin was also anxious, "Dashun will attack the city in three days, everything will be too late by then."
"Don't panic." Fang Jinse said to her, "If you panic, it will be easy to mess up, since we can't send the letter through normal channels, we have to think of some unorthodox ways." She took a deep breath and told Yue Xin, "Go and find Zheng Qi, the commander of the guards in the palace, tell him that I asked him to come to this palace for tea tonight."
Yue Xin frowned, "Zheng Qi showed unruly intentions towards Young Miss when we first entered the palace, he even used the fact that he is the Empress' cousin to sneak to the place where Young Miss lived several times to harass her. After Young Miss gained favor, he restrained himself. Now Young Miss took the initiative to invite him, could it be … "
"You are right." Fang Jinse said, "If you want to succeed, you can't be too calculative about the price. Using me alone to exchange the lives of our two families, it is worth it. That Zheng Qi is the Empress' cousin, now the palace is controlled by him, if we want to send the letter, other than Zheng Qi, we can't find anyone else. "
