Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 806

Yun Shang was surprised and sat up abruptly. "There are not so many guards in the Fuya prison, and there are also a lot secret guards around. How could he escape? Have you sent someone to chase him?"

Qian Yin hurriedly said, "The cell where the seventh prince was locked is made of stone, and the stone room is very small. The secret guards are patrolling outside. But no one expected that someone would dig into the ground and save the seventh prince. Fortunately, the secret guards check the cell every half an hour. The seventh prince has escaped for less than half an hour, and the secret guards have already gone after him.

Yun Shang frowned. She knew what kind of person the seventh prince was. If he wasn't fully prepared, he wouldn't have taken such a risk. Since he had escaped, the possibility of catching him was very small.

But the real commander's tally is in Luo Qingyan's hand. Where could the seventh prince go after he ran away from the prison? What did he intend to do?

Yun Shang was wondering where she would go if she were the seventh prince?

After thinking for a long while, Yun Shang threw the handkerchief aside irritably. She felt inexplicably frustrated. If she were the seventh prince, she would never break the prison at this time. Now the news of Empress Hua had just spread out, and many people in the Su clan wanted to kill Empress Hua. For the seventh prince, both the Su clan and Luo Qingyan were his enemies. If it were her, she would definitely watch the fight from a distance. It would be the best if both the Su clan and Luo Qingyan suffer losses. The prison of Lingxi City was a rare good place for him to watch the fight. It was safe with so many secret guards guarding there and could help him lower people's guards.

If she were the seventh prince, she would never try to escape from the prison.

Yun Shang looked up at Qian Shang and said softly, "Where do you think the seventh prince will go after he escaped?"

Qian Zhuo meditated for a moment and then replied, "Your Highness often said that the most dangerous place is the safest. I think the seventh prince must be hiding among ordinary people. Lingxi City is neither too big nor too small. There are about one hundred thousand people in the city. It's hard to find him out in a short time."

The most dangerous place is the safest place? Yun Shang's lips curled up, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. "I know."

As Yun Shang spoke, she turned around and looked at Qian Zhuo. "Send a message to Lord Zhang, asking him to lock the city gate and forbid anyone to come in and out."

"City gate?" Qian Yin was surprised, but she didn't ask. She quickly responded and walked out of the room.

The most dangerous place was the safest. Once the seventh prince left the prison, he would definitely know that she had been in Lingxi City, and would guess her thoughts just as she had guessed him. He would definitely think that she would searching him the city, so his choice was most likely to leave the city as soon as possible. After Qian Zhuo left, Yun Shang had no mood to sleep anymore. She stood up and walked out of the room. Standing at the door, Lady Zhao fixed her eyes on the door. When she saw Yun Shang go out, she turned to Yun Shang and asked, "Is there anything happened?"

Yun Shang nodded slightly and said, "The seventh prince has escaped."

Stunned for a second, Lady Zhao said softly, "I can't believe he escaped from so many guards."

Yun Shang sneered, "He could run, but he couldn't hide. We don't need to worry."

About an hour later, Qian Zhuo still didn't come back. Yun Shang saw Lady Zhang rushing over with a pale face. Yun Shang was confused, "Lady Zhang, what's wrong?"

Hearing this, Lady Zhang said in a low voice, "Your Highness, I heard from His Lordship that some important prisoner has escaped. I suspect that he has sneaked into our mansion." His Lordship has taken his men to block the city gate. I have no idea what should I do, so I have to come here and report it to Your Highness."

Yun Shang and Lady Zhao looked at each other, with confusion in their eyes. Then Yun Shang smiled and said, "There is indeed a prisoner who escaped from prison. But how do you know that he sneaked into Chengfu Mansion?"

Lady Zhang looked a little flustered. She bit her lips and said softly, "There are several Coachmen in our mansion. The one who always goes out with me is called A Qi. Today, I went out to visit Lady Li in the east of the city. I have been on good terms with Lady Li and I go to Li Mansion almost every few days. Every time I come back from the Li mansion, I will go to Xingsheng Road to buy some peach blossom stationery for His Lordship. When I go to the Li Mansion, everything went as usual and I had talked with A Qi when I got off the carriage. On my way back, I felt A Qi was a little strange."

"Oh?" Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "What made you feel so?"
