Chapter 301: Who Is This Woman?

"Nine years ago, the Yue family intended to set a family affair for Yue Bowen and Ziyue, but was sternly rejected by Yue Bowen, Qingyang said that Yue Bowen frankly admitted that he already had a favorite woman.

If the woman in this portrait is Yue Bowen's favorite woman, then she should be the daughter of the owner of the spice shop, otherwise Yue Bowen would not have lost his temper when he went to the spice shop to pick up Qiu's family a few months ago, but at that time, she was already Yun Niang in the spice shop, which is very intriguing. ”

Lan Ke slapped his head and said with annoyance: "Ah, I've been busy with the martial arts test these days, and I forgot to tell you that the spices are on fire and burned to death!"

You Xue was not surprised, there was some pity in her eyes, "The spice shop owner said that her daughter died five years ago, but I also asked the neighbors, among whom the old people who were familiar with the details of the spice shop owner said that the spice shop owner gave birth to a child, but died, and sometimes it was not her daughter who appeared in her shop to help, I heard that it was her distant niece, but she was sometimes crazy and talking nonsense, and everyone didn't care." ”

Lan Ke was even more confused when he heard this, "It's so complicated, if we met in the spice shop nine years ago, then they started making cloth so early? What do you want to do? Although the Yue Mansion was in charge of the military department at that time, it couldn't hinder the group of demons in Xiye!"

You Xue looked down at Lan Ke's blank eyes: "At that time, Yue Bowen was very blue-eyed, often in and out of Youfu, and was also quite popular with the princess, if it weren't for the fact that the county lord of Yuhe had admired Zeng Jiqing for many years, the princess would have wanted to marry her daughter to Yue Bowen." ”

Lan Ke suddenly opened his mouth wide in shock and couldn't speak, and at the same time admired You Xue, the 'county lord of Qianhe', talking about his love history back then, and still being able to do nothing about himself, as if the person concerned was not her.

You Xue looked at the woman in the painting, with a look of disgust in her eyes: "Since this woman is not Yun Niang, then there are other people who burned the spice shop, which means that she is still alive, and I am afraid that we will get any news from the owner of the spice shop, but judging from the time of her burning, she rushed back in a hurry, and she did not collude with Yun Niang from the beginning, otherwise she should be killed immediately."

Now one thing is for sure, this woman should also be Xiye's secret chess, maybe it is the same woman who took Jin Yumei away. ”

The sky was getting dark, You Xue packed up her things and prepared to enter the palace, she picked up the small brocade box that Guan Cunshan handed to her, opened it and looked, a round and shiny black pill was lying in the middle, she sniffed the smell lightly on her fingertips, but she couldn't smell any medicine, she stared at this pill thoughtfully for a moment, and slowly sent it into her mouth, the entrance of the pill dissipated in her mouth, turning into a cool feeling that went straight to her lungs, and after a while, this strange feeling dissipated, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

This Guan Cunshan should have seen that her body was wearing out, so he prepared a pill to restore her vitality, right? It's also rare that he has a heart, so he can't let him have an accident.

Suddenly, she felt a figure flickering outside the door, she looked back, it was the elusive Wang Lian who appeared at the door, and she teased: "I thought you went to track down the whereabouts of Xiye." ”

"I went to Spirit Butterfly Valley, and there is no one left!" He glanced at the medicine box on You Xue's back and asked, "Are you going to enter the palace again?"

"Yes, do you want to come with me to meet the king?"

Wang Lian sneered, lifted the hem of his clothes, and sat on the square chair next to You Xue's bed casually, "I'm afraid he won't be able to stand it." ”

"Well, you can't die old, he really can't stand it, then you are free, I'll go first. You Xue smiled slyly and stepped out of the room.

Wang Lian frowned when he looked at her in a hurry, and muttered, "Qi Ye, doesn't this woman have to sleep all day long?"

His eyes swept over the flat bed, and he could see that You Xue was very clean, and the whole room and even the bed were spotless, neat and clean.

He raised his eyebrows, and on a whim, he was about to step on it to make trouble, but he was startled by Lan Ke who suddenly ran in: "What are you doing?"

Lan Ke glared at him: "Hey, is the boss out?Hey, what are you doing, what are you doing with one foot on our boss's bed!?"

Wang Lian retracted his feet in embarrassment, and said awe-inspiringly: "If she doesn't sleep, she won't allow me to sleep?"

Lan Ke stepped forward and dragged him with the picture scroll in his arms: "You go out, you want to sleep in Brother Qingyang's house!"

Wang Lian bared his teeth and pinched his white and tender earlobe, "Stinky boy, dare to be rude to the deity!"

Lan Ke shook the picture scroll in pain and covered his ears, and said angrily: "Brother Qingyang, save me!"

However, he forgot that he had lit the incense just now, and the two boys of the Yue family were stunned.

Wang Lian let go of his hand, looked at the portrait on the ground with a shocked face, and asked after a while: "You... Why do you have... This portrait?"

Lan Ke raised his eyebrows in surprise to see him lose his temper like this, covered his ears and pouted dissatisfiedly: "What's the matter, this woman doesn't look very good, she is not as good-looking as the boss, why are you so fascinated?" he said and rubbed his ears and bent down to pick it up.

Wang Lian pushed him away violently, suddenly picked up the scroll and disappeared into the room like a gust of wind.

Half of Lan Ke's head was slammed against the cabinet, and he wailed in pain, and said angrily: "You hateful fake scholars!

When You Xue walked to the Chengtian Gate, she looked up at the towering Imperial Guard Tower, her eyes were resolute, she tightened the shoulder strap of the medicine box, showed the jade card to the Praetorian Guard, and stepped into the palace.

She stepped into the palace, and when she entered, the tall and heavy palace door behind her slowly closed.

Wen Shao had been waiting for her on the covered bridge for a long time, and when he saw her coming, he greeted her and said: "The king has already ordered, his subordinates have already retired from everyone, I will take you in later, and ask the girl to change into the palace clothes of the Praetorian Guard." ”

You Xue nodded, and followed him into the guard station closest to the Imperial Guard Tower, and it didn't take long for her to appear in front of Wen Shao in a white brocade and silver armor outfit, and the two walked towards the Imperial Guard Tower.

The closer you get to the tower, the more obvious the sense of depression becomes, and there are countless hidden guards in ambush all around, but the guards at the entrance of the tower are all retreated.

Wen Shao was the first to enter, he lit the torch, You Xue followed, after the last thrilling rash intrusion, now this huge beast-like mechanism wheel and the wet mist on her face can no longer arouse her too much shock, the password on the winch of the Imperial Guard Tower is based on the changes of the heavenly and terrestrial branches and will change every day, only the Ouchi Commander knows the secret from the emperor's mouth.

Thinking about it this way, Xi Ye found Jincheng for the sake of the things in the Imperial Guard Tower, she looked at Wen Shao's tall and long back, and her expression was complicated.

She thought to herself that no matter who sat in this position, as long as the night was not resolved for a day, there would never be peace in the palace, and the tragedy would never stop.

With the sound of 'clucking', the shaft wheel in the water spun rapidly, the water splashed, and the two walked up the stone steps, entered the lifting cage, and rose to the third floor.

It was a wide circular stone chamber, with a square inch of observation windows carved out of the stone wall on six sides, empty on all sides, and without a winch, it seemed that the lifting cage had risen to the top.

She came to step on it first this time, because she was in a hurry last time, and she didn't have time to take a closer look.

The two of them searched around this side of the world for a long time and did not find the entrance of the mechanism, and they couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

"This lookout window is very strangely open. You Xue looked up, and it was about two zhang high from the ground to the dome, and the window was about two or three meters below the dome.

Wen Shao also looked up at the black hole with a square radius of six sides and a foot above him, and he could vaguely see the stars shining in the sky outside the window, but unlike the windows on the three floors below, there was no way to look out for the enemy.

The two of them looked up and pondered for a long time, and You Xue's eyes fell on Wen Shao's shadow dragging on the ground with a torch, and she was stunned.

Wen Shao also turned to look at her at this time, and when he saw her staring at his shadow, he thought something had changed, and asked, "Miss Nanxing, what's wrong?"

You Xue quietly avoided her gaze, and continued to look at the six dark and secluded windows and said: "There are many mysteries here, and I can't tell for a while, it seems that next time I have to ask the king and invite the Zhenxi Hou to come over and ask for advice." ”

Wen Shao nodded, not noticing the strangeness in her eyes, and asked, "Then let's go out first?"

"I'm tired. You Xue nodded slightly, stretched out her hand and asked him to go up first, she was a few steps behind, and scratched a few times on the dusty ground with her toes before stepping into the lifting cage.

As the weightlessness swayed down, she slowly silently recited the letterhead left to her by the princess's mother: "Tiannan is the star, and the finch tail is red." ”

Such a secret code with no head and no tail, if it is explained by Qimen gossip, it doesn't seem to make sense.

Which god devised such a strange code?

She sighed helplessly.
