The tunnel is about one person high, very dry, and it can be seen that the ventilation is not bad, and there is no air that smells strange due to the perennial closure of underground buildings. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThere is no dirt underfoot, and all sides of the tunnel are paved with flat slabs.

Shi Lan subconsciously sniffed when she entered the tunnel, and there was a cold smell in the air. She remembered that in the middle of summer, the borneol mint commonly used for incense in the palace vaguely seemed to smell like this, but there was no such thing as incense everywhere, and she didn't remember that this kind of plant was planted near the Hall of Eternal Life.

There is only one explanation, that someone had walked through the tunnel not long ago, and that person had left behind a cool scent of ice chips on the way.

Is it the little emperor, or Xu Heng? Shi Lan strode forward with a calm face, her steps wide and steady.

She has never used those boudoir ladies to take gentle and gentle lotus steps, she can't learn, and she can't use it. Even if she was instigated by Wei Ruoshui to watch her school for a few days in the years she spent with Wei Ruoshui, she still took straight and wide steps, as if she was born with a natural step.

Once, the eldest young master of the Wei family, who is now the queen mother's brother and Wei Guoguo's uncle Wei Ruoshan, made fun of Shi Lan's walking, saying that she seemed to be a man carrying sandbags on the dock as rude and straight, but three days later, Wei Ruoshan bullied his sister and cried, and she was silent on the side, and she split her palm, Wei Ruoshan walked with her shoulders crooked for several days.

She claimed to be defending Wei Ruoshui, but Wei Ruoshan firmly believed that she was a personal vendetta. As soon as she thought of this, Shi Lan's eyes suddenly had a smile.

In a blink of an eye, for so many years, she went from wandering on the streets at the beginning of the child who didn't know where her home was, to entering the power center of Wei with the two children of the Wei family, she was more of a bystander, although she also had times when she obeyed Wei Ruoshui's orders and made a move, but she always thought that her spirit was outside the Wei country, as if an extremely distant place had its own belonging.

Of course, she had always thought of this vague feeling as amnesia. Her memory began in the noisy streets, lively hawking, fragrant green onions, and began with a blooming orchid handed over by the daughter of Wei County Ling when she went to the street to play, so from then on, her name was Shi Lan.

There are not many memories, and her next days were when Wei Ruoshui entered the palace not long after she entered the palace as a maid. She didn't need to do what a maid needed to do, she just had to do what an ordinary maid couldn't do.

So in the following days, she only remembered that there were many well-dressed women who were sisters in front of the old emperor, and the next second she wanted to put the other party to death, Wei Ruoshui told her that it was called competing for favor.

And every time the bloated emperor suddenly arrives and leaves, Wei Ruoshui is always full of tears, with despair and disgust, she can only silently pick up the torn dress on the ground every time, and then let people prepare for bathing and incense.

Over time, the less the emperor came, it is said that he had a very good relationship with the new Southern Chu national teacher at that time, and Wei Ruoshui's tears gradually decreased, replaced by a kind of shrewdness in planning and calculation, a kind of resoluteness that does not stop until the goal is achieved, and she is as cautious and bold as other women, and she quickly solves the other women one by one and sits on the throne of the queen.

Even on the night of the emperor's death, Wei Ruoshui did that thing like crazy, she was shocked, and she also thought that Wei Ruoshui was still the same Wei Ruoshui.

Shi Lan had a lot of thoughts, and before she knew it, Shi Lan had been walking along the upward trend of the tunnel for a long time, and vaguely felt that the icy breath she smelled was a little obvious, and it was obvious that she was gradually approaching the source.

She walked up a slope, and suddenly there was an exit to the sky on the road in the distance, and she could see a small sky above, and the sky had already shown a faint white belly.

Without hesitation, Shi Lan walked up the simple wooden ladder next to the exit, and climbed out of the tunnel in two steps, she looked around, but found herself in a marble-paved square, almost without any consideration, Shi Lan looked behind her, and behind her was the thick and low wooden tower, and behind the wooden tower were several familiar palaces, magnificent, but dead and silent.

This exit is actually open on the square in front of the Hall of Eternal Life?

Shi Lan frowned, but a flash of surprise was followed by calm observation and vigilance. Because all the main palaces that have been around for a long time will set up some hidden passages for the royal family to escape when the enemy invades, or they are used to hide people's eyes and ears and set up tunnels for the convenience of walking, but although she visited once eight years ago, and even entered the underground this time, she couldn't imagine what secrets this palace of eternal life could hide.

She only knew that this place was the place where the dead Emperor Wei Ling used to gather beauties and scholars from all over the world to pursue the so-called path of immortality to heaven. However, it turned out that Emperor Wei Ling did not see the so-called elixir until he died.

Shi Lan's sharp eyes swept around, but he didn't notice a single breath. She didn't know that Xu Heng, who was hiding in a secret door at the edge of the square, had already touched the corner of the secret of the Palace of Eternal Life under the guidance of "that person", and because of this secret, Xu Heng, who had been silent for many years, finally made a move, guiding Lian Li into this palace, trying to let her know some of the truths of the year.

In fact, the top and bottom of the Wei Kingdom, if you really talk about it, there are no more than five people who know that there is a huge space hidden in the Great Hall of Eternal Life, and among these five people, who really knows the secrets hidden under the layers of concealment?

Just like the existence of the Great Hall of Immortality, if it weren't for the long enough years spent in the Wei Palace, the rotation of duty was enough, and the level of the people in contact was high enough, ordinary palace people would not be able to know that it existed in the depths of the Wei Palace like a forbidden place. Among the chatters and jokes of many palace people, the so-called taboo should be a story full of excitement and desire like palace affairs and treason. They didn't know that when they passed by, they only felt that there were many unknown things buried in the underground of the Great Hall of Eternal Life, which they only felt was a little dilapidated.

Many newcomers to the palace will mistakenly regard the Hall of Eternal Life as a cold palace at first sight, because it is quite dilapidated from a distance, and some generations of palace stewards and eunuchs will smile meaningfully, and begin to talk about how the former emperor was extravagant, singing and dancing night and night, spring supper, day and day, and serving the first enjoyment on the mainland.

The most famous is that after the first emperor Wei Ling Emperor summoned the Chu people Ganbi as the national teacher, the Qing treasury built the Hall of Immortality, the three southern counties were empty, although there were many grievances, but after all, they were hindered by the emperor and magnates, and there were more than 30 peasants who incited people in Qingyang County were caught by the government, exposed to the half moon and beheaded, and the people's grievances were subdued.

On the night of Emperor Wei Ling's death, the rebellious Sun clan entered the palace, burned and looted everything in the palace, and ransacked the palace of eternal life. Until the Empress Dowager temporarily took charge of the government, perhaps because of that painful memory, even if it was announced that the Palace of Eternal Life would never be opened.

However, no one knew that at this time, in the square in front of the Hall of Eternal Life, which was announced to the outside world that it would never be opened, the black-faced palace maid beside the Queen Mother, who was always cold-faced, was vigilantly observing the surroundings, and an old eunuch with a terrible face was lying mournfully, standing behind the secret door hundreds of steps away, standing in front of a certain side door of the Hall of Eternal Life, looking at many scenes that seemed familiar and very unfamiliar, and sighed from time to time.

"Things are people...... Xu Heng leaned his back, his eyes were confused, reminiscing, and looking around with some nostalgia
