Rebirth Strategy: Please let me go

It was raining heavily and the wind was blowing hard that night, the eaves were being slapped and crackling, and there was lightning and thunder, as if the end of the world was coming.

Amidst a loud noise, the door of the main hall was kicked open.

An Jinshu, who was still sleeping, was so frightened that she got up from the couch. Before she could react, someone pulled her up from the couch. She was so anxious that she didn't even have time to put on her shoes.

"Brother Huai'an, what happened!"

Although she didn't know what happened, she still followed Sheng Huaian and ran out of the palace.

Sheng Huaian didn't stop: "The rebels have invaded the palace. It's no longer safe here. You come with me."

"The rebels invaded the imperial city?" An Jinshu was horrified: "But what about Hong Li and Ah Li? They..."

Sheng Huaian paused, turned his head to look at her, and when he lowered his head, he noticed that she was not wearing shoes, and then he was annoyed that he seemed to be a little too impulsive.

He squatted down, picked up An Jinshu, and ran forward without any intention of going back: "You don't need to worry about her two, my servant will go find them."

Sheng Huaian held her in his arms and ran under the long palace corridor. The sound of rain outside was faintly mixed with the noise of people.

An Jinshu couldn't help but clenched Sheng Huaian's clothes tightly, and looked towards the palace gate, where there seemed to be fire.

"Is Prince Yi plotting a rebellion? Is there a guard in the palace? Is there a strategy to retreat from the enemy?"

"Although there are troops in the palace, the enemy is approaching fiercely and has been prepared for long time. His Royal Highness is still away on a visit to the north, and General An is nowhere to be found. Even if there is a capable general who can take on this important task, it will be a matter of time before he is defeated without reinforcements."

Since ancient times, when conspirators invaded the imperial city, they would go on a killing spree and massacre everywhere. Those who surrendered would stay, and those who did not surrender would die.

Keep the useful concubines in the palace, and kill the useless ones.

What's more, they kill everyone on sight, leaving no one behind. Sheng Huaian heard the news and came to look for her. If the opponent really invaded the imperial city, the palace would be filled with corpses and seas of blood in an instant.

"Where are you sending me?"

"The Duke's Mansion."

"Brother Huai'an." An Jinshu called him.

Sheng Huaian hummed.

"I'm going to save someone." An Jinshu said to him.

Sheng Huaian stopped moving his feet and lowered his head: "Who?"

An Jinshu's eyes looked somewhere in the palace: "A person who must be saved."

Sheng Huaian was doubtful, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just asked for the route and then quickly carried her in the direction she pointed.

The two of them had just walked halfway when they heard a loud "killing" sound.

Both of them looked up at the other end of the palace wall in horror, only to see the flames soaring into the sky, and the sound of horse hooves becoming clearer and louder, making the ground beneath their feet tremble.

"They actually broke through the city gate so quickly." Sheng Huaian's face was solemn, and his steps quickened again.

The rain above his head was getting heavier and heavier. Although Sheng Huaian had made preparations when he came and prepared raincoats, the two of them were still completely drenched under such a heavy downpour.

An Jinshu and Gu Qingchen only walked through Gu Qingmo's palace once. It was difficult to tell the direction in the rainy night, and they almost took the wrong road.

It wasn't until he saw the palace in the distance that An Jinshu said in surprise, "That's it."

Sheng Huaian quickly hugged her and ran towards the palace.

There were two nuns in front of the palace gate. When they saw that they, a man and a woman, were soaked in the middle of the night, they immediately blocked the door with their faces drawn and said sarcastically: "Which palace did you two come from to be so unruly? This palace is not a wilderness." The ruined temple in the wild will make you two happy. If you disturb the nobles in the palace, be careful, His Highness the Prince will cut off your heads, so hurry up and get out of here."

An Jinshu was not angry. After all, she was suddenly pulled into the palace. In a panic, she could only grab a coat casually. Her black hair was untied and her clothes were disheveled. Anyone who saw it would think too much.

"I'm looking for your lady." In this situation, An Jinshu had no time to talk nonsense: "If she is in the palace, please let me know. I have something important to see her."

The nanny snorted disdainfully: "You two came here sneakily in the middle of the night. Who knows what your intentions are? His Highness the Crown Prince is very fond of my young lady. His Highness the Crown Prince came here specially." It is for the young lady to cultivate her body and mind. No one in the palace knows this place. The two of you came here for no reason. Maybe you are here to harm others. If you don't leave, we will call for help."

As she said that, the nanny was about to shout for someone, but Sheng Huaian took out the token with a big word "SHENG" on it.

Although the nanny had never seen Sheng Huai'an, the token was not a common thing at first glance. The nanny did not dare to say anything disrespectful. She only said to Sheng Huai'an: "Master, give this token to me." , I can take it in and let our young lady take a look."

Sheng Huaian threw the token directly to her, and the old woman hurried into the hall with the token.

While waiting, Sheng Huaian kept looking behind him. Because it was so far away, he felt peaceful, but in fact he knew that the palace must be in a state of chaos and war.

The old mama came back quickly with the token.

"How?" An Jinshu asked.

The old grandma shook her head: "My young lady told me that she was missing and asked you... to go back."

The word "go back" seemed to be bitten out from between his teeth. An Jinshu knew that Gu Qingmo probably didn't mean to go back, but to get out.

She originally wanted to leave in anger, but she heard the killing cry just now. This is not a trivial matter. They are the rebels. If the other party takes over the palace tonight, then Gu Qingmo, as Gu Qingchen's sister, One can imagine how miserable the outcome will be.

She didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but Sheng Huaian said that now the palace guards could only resist the other party. It would be difficult to win. The other party rebelled so suddenly. It would be enough if Gu Qingchen could come back. If he couldn't come back, then what would happen to them? What are the chances of survival for the female relatives?

He was afraid that he would either be beheaded on the spot or be molested to death.

Gu Qingchen had the grace to save her life, and Gu Qingmo was his only sister. The person she once thought was dead was now lost and found, so one can imagine the meaning to her.

Even if she wanted to repay Gu Qingchen's kindness, she would definitely protect Gu Qingmo for him.

Thinking of this, An Jinshu shouted at the top of her voice: "I know you are inside and Gu Qingchen won't be able to come back tonight, but the rebels have already invaded the palace. If you don't want to die, come with me!"

When the two old nuns heard what the rebels were saying, they immediately shrank their necks in fear. Their glance at me and their erratic eyes showed that they both knew that things were not peaceful these days.

There was no movement in the hall, so An Jinshu raised his legs to go inside.

The old woman still wanted to stop her, but Sheng Huaian snorted coldly: "Who dares to stop her?"

The two old ladies immediately retracted their hands in fright, but just because they were timid didn't mean that the secret guard secretly protecting Gu Qingmo would be timid.

Two black figures descended from the sky and stood in front of An Jinshu.

An Jinshu could tell at a glance that they were Gu Qingchen's people. Also, Gu Qingchen had sent someone to guard her palace. How could he not send someone to protect the people he cared about here?

"You should know when the rebels enter the palace, there is no news about your master yet. People in the palace can either take her away, or I can go in and take her away. It's your choice."

An Jinshu's voice was cold and there was no unnecessary nonsense. The current situation was like this. If they had to stop her, they couldn't force their way in. She was extremely benevolent and felt no regrets afterwards.
