Chapter 300
Xue Hai immediately looked stern and stared at her fiercely.
Xiao Lingyue: ""
What's the use of staring at her?
Isn't she telling the truth?
Emperor Zhaoming was trapped in the prayer hall alone. If an assassin sneaks in, it would be like a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, and there will be no return.
"Bang!" "Bang!" The imperial guards behind seemed to have heard Xiao Lingyue's words and rushed to the palace gate even more desperately.
However, the prayer hall is not an ordinary hall.
It is specially used for the dead. To put it bluntly, it is a yin hall.
According to the customs of the Northern Qin Kingdom, the Yintang did not see any light.
Therefore, the prayer hall has no windows on all sides, and the whole is not made of wood, but is made of large pieces of hard grey stone, with high walls blocked and built in a remote and cold place, with only one hall gate that can enter and exit.
Logically speaking, the palace gate will not be sealed, but now somehow it is blocked from the inside.
Seven or eight strong imperial guards could not even open the door when they hit the door.
Maybe because it is a stone wall, the sound insulation effect is very good. Once the palace door is closed, no movement inside can be heard.
Xiao Lingyue frowned and looked around: "How long has Your Majesty been inside?"
Xue Hai tried to gesture, but found that he couldn't explain clearly, so he simply held a sword and wrote quickly on the ground.
He wrote: "After dinner, His Majesty said he would stay alone with the Queen for a while and ordered people not to disturb him, so he entered the Prayer Hall alone. We were guarding outside. In the middle of the night, a loud noise suddenly came from the Prayer Hall. The door of the Prayer Hall was closed and could not be opened."
"Just as we were thinking of a solution, the main hall ahead caught fire, and there was thick smoke from where it was ignited. After smelling it, it hurt my throat and could not make a sound. Then the assassin appeared."
Xiao Lingyue watched him finish writing a long string of words and keenly grasped the point: "The first loud noise came from the prayer hall?"
Xue Hai nodded solemnly.
"In other words, you are not sure about Your Majesty's safety now? You don't know what happened in the Mourning Hall?"
Xiao Lingyue's scalp almost exploded.
Half an hour has passed?
If there is really danger in the prayer hall, can Your Majesty still have a life?
Xue Hai's expression was ashamed and impatient. He quickly wrote: "The palace gate cannot be opened, what can you do?"
Xiao Lingyue didn't care about anything else and immediately walked to the front of the palace gate: "Let me try it, you all get out of the way!"
Several imperial guards hesitated and retreated to the side.
Xiao Lingyue picked up a big knife from the ground, took a deep breath, poured internal force on the blade, and suddenly slashed it hard.
"Bang!!"
The blade slashed down.
A very deep knife mark appeared on the hall door made by ironwood in an instant, almost cutting off the two hall doors in half, wood chips fluttered, and large cracks covered the entire door.
Xue Hai: "?!!"
A group of wounded imperial guards: "!!!"
Everyone's eyes changed instantly, and they all looked at Xiao Lingyue with a shocked and incredible gaze.
Are all the daughters of the high gates of the capital so cruel?
Unfortunately, no matter how cruel it is, it is useless.
From the cracks of the knife marks, Xiao Lingyue only saw that the entrance of the hall was blocked tightly by a huge stone.
Her blade penetrated the hall gate and cut it on the stone, leaving only a shallow white mark, and even the stone scalp was not cut off.
"What is this?" Xiao Lingyue was simply shocked.
