Chapter 386 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (One Hundred and Thirty-Five)

In the dark prison, the night is extended infinitely.

Only the meals delivered on time every day told Ji Mingyue that another day had passed.

She has been here for so long that she almost doesn't know what day it is.

She didn't know how much time had passed since she last saw Cui Li, maybe two or three days, maybe four or five days. In any case, when she was half asleep and half awake, the iron gate, which was only opened when the black-armored guards delivered food, was pushed open from the outside.

"Princess? Princess? Are you there?"

Hearing someone shouting, Ji Mingyue suddenly woke up, put on her shoes and shouted: "I'm here! Who is it?"

When the visitor heard the response, he quickly strode in with a torch in hand.

Ji Mingyue looked at the tall and mighty man and said in surprise, "Wu Meng, it's you!"

"Princess, Wu Meng is here to rescue you! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has also come to Daliang. You'll be able to see him soon!"

Wu Meng's voice was full of excitement, and he soon arrived in front of Ji Mingyue's prison door. He swung his knife hard, trying to open the door.

Ji Mingyue looked at the prison door and said worriedly, "Wu Meng, this prison door is made of thousand-year-old black iron. It's very difficult to open without a key."

Wu Meng couldn't find the key. He tried several times and was sweating profusely, but he just couldn't open it.

"Princess, don't worry. Wu Meng will definitely rescue you. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting for you."

The intruders gathered around the cell door, trying to break it down, but to no avail.

Ji Mingyue looked at the ground and found that the bottom of the cage was not surrounded by black iron. The cage was simply built on the ground. She decisively asked Wu Meng's people to dig a passage for her to get out.

Wu Meng knocked on the ground left and right, avoiding the rocks underground, and chose a relatively weak place to dig.

He has great strength and can easily break through the hard ground.

Ji Mingyue watched them digging the tunnel and felt extremely anxious, fearing that the Black Armor Guards would get wind of the news and come to reinforce, and then no one would be able to escape.

"Princess, it's done!"

In order to save time, Wu Meng only dug a long pit that was wide enough for one person to pass through.

Ji Mingyue was overjoyed and immediately entered the passage and crawled out of the small tunnel.

Ji Mingyue brushed off the dirt on his body and said quickly, "Wu Meng, let's go!"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

Because Ji Mingyue had been imprisoned for a long time and was completely exhausted, it was very difficult for her to get out of the cage, so two people helped her walk.

This time Wu Meng was extremely vigilant, rushing to the front with a knife in hand. He only grinned when he saw the bright cave entrance.

"Princess, this secret cell is built underground, and is covered with vegetation. If Wu Meng didn't know how to open the entrance mechanism beforehand, he would probably be confused for a while."

Ji Mingyue came out of the cave and found that the outside was covered with weeds and rocks. She asked in confusion, "How did you know where I was imprisoned?"

Wu Meng chuckled, "It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who informed me. The Daliang Emperor is treacherous. The first time we went to the Dali Temple to rescue you, it wasn't you inside. I barely escaped alive."

Ji Mingyue frowned slightly, but time was of the essence so she didn't ask any further questions. She simply said, "Let's leave quickly and discuss this outside. We took too long to leave the prison just now. I'm afraid Emperor Liang has already noticed something."

Upon hearing this, Wu Meng quickly sent someone to explore the way ahead and evacuate with Ji Mingyue.

"Your Highness, I have arranged for twenty people to meet us outside the palace. As long as we leave the palace, we will be safe."

Ji Mingyue nodded, but her heart was pounding, and she always felt that something bad was going to happen.

Soon, her premonition took effect.

The Royal Guards in front blocked their way.

"Princess, be careful!"

Wu Meng stood in front of Ji Mingyue and blocked the arrow.

"General, we are surrounded!"

Wu Meng looked at the dense crowd of people in front of him and became secretly anxious. They were clearly walking on a remote and desolate path, so how could they be surrounded so quickly?

The commander of the Imperial Guards stood in front and asked, "Mrs. Ming Zhaoyi, where are you going so late at night?"

Ji Mingyue looked at the Imperial Guards surrounding them in front of him and snorted coldly, "Commander Shi, can't you see it?"

The commander of the Imperial Guards, Shi Dong, said in embarrassment, "The last time I saw the Empress was at the New Year's Eve Palace Banquet. You risked your life to save His Majesty then. Why do you have to provoke His Majesty again and again now? You'd better come here by yourself, otherwise the sword will have no eyes."

"You Liang thief, don't even think about keeping the princess imprisoned again."

Commander Shi Dong raised his eyebrows and looked at the burly man.

"People from Ji State? Then let this commander see the capabilities of the generals from Ji State."

Shi Dong waved his hand backwards, and the Royal Guards immediately took action.
