Qi Fan was very familiar with the terrain in the cave, and made several turns in the dark passage, avoiding the dark room where dangerous traps were set, and only opened two simple mechanisms, and then took a shortcut and gradually approached the direction of the treasure exit. However, in the place separated from Shui Ci and Chan'er by the wall, Qi Fan made a difficulty, because the opening of the door in front of him required six skilled archers to shoot arrows through the round hole in the door at the same time, and he alone could not do it anyway.

Qi Fan quietly listened to the footsteps of a wall apart, judged that there were two people on the opposite side, and then remembered that there were still four people trapped in the stone room not far away, so he thought about it and planned to detour to the secret passage connecting the stone room, and pull the mechanism to make these six people together, so that he could observe from the side.

Shui Ci and Chan'er meandered along the alleyway, and after walking for a stick of incense, the road seemed to be still endless, and they didn't even see a single trap in the expectation. Separated by a wall, Qi Fan left with his front feet, and Chan'er said here:

"Brother Shui, have you ever thought that the road here is so tortuous, it shouldn't be the entrance to the treasure. ”

"Definitely. Shui Ci felt the same way, and said, "Under the flap trap, is where the main gate is, and some people are afraid that the treasure will be discovered by others, so they cover it up." ”

"I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, it seems that there won't be too dangerous mechanisms in this alley, but if you want to escape from here, you may only have the entrance under the trap, so you will definitely meet someone on the way. ”

"If it's really a Yi countryman, don't worry too much. After all, Xiuyuan, Xiuyao and you have never met, and the only people who know me are people in the rivers and lakes. ”

"You have to look at the situation carefully. ”

"I promised my eldest brother, I will protect you and take care of you in this life, and I will definitely not let you have anything to do this time. ”

"Hmm. ”

While Shui Ci and Chan'er were talking, they were getting closer and closer to the stone room, and the people in the stone room were still looking for a way out.

"The walls have been fumbled, and there are no mechanisms. After the door was closed, Childe's people must have been looking for a mechanism, but it didn't seem to have come to fruition. ”

"This cave is really weird, except for the trap we accidentally touched, as if someone was secretly manipulating the opening and closing of the door. ”

"Brother Yuan is right, I feel this way too. ”

"So even if we can't find a mechanism to open the door, can we just wait for the door to open on its own?"

Before the four of them could speak, the other door opposite to them when they came, that is, the door connecting the alley where Shui Ci and Chan'er were located, had suddenly opened in accordance with Qi Fan's thoughts.

and Shui Ci and Chan'er are suddenly opposite, from left to right, in order are Fu Huan, Xiuyuan, Sun Chuxi, and You Wanqing.

The six of them were startled and looked at each other. It was Qi Fan, who was also quite surprised the moment he saw Chan'er from the secret passage.

"It's you, girl from the Tang family. There is also the Lord of Shibuya Nanachiya. "It was Fu Huan who spoke first," the Tang family really has a wide range of friends, and every time they meet, it is surprising. ”

Although Shui Ci didn't understand what Fu Huan said about the "Tang family girl", he also guessed that it should be related to Tang Yin, which is still secondary, the key is to connect the many years of grudges between Shibuya and Xingtan, and today I am afraid that it will be difficult to get out of the whole body. His thoughts were only in the blink of an eye, and Shui Ci immediately spoke:

"Lord Fumen, long time gone. These three are ......"

"The Star Altar has been extinguished in the hands of Shibuya and Orange Flame Villa, and the title of the master of the gate is not to be properly stated. Wanqing and I are now adrift in the rivers and lakes, but fortunately we were taken in by the son and his wife, so we obeyed the orders of the son. ”

Shui Ci and Chan'er glanced at each other, and there was the same sigh in their eyes: even if Xiuyuan stood by and watched, the two were not opponents of Fu Huan and You Wanqing.

And after You Wanqing learned the identity of Shui Ci from Fu Huan's mouth, obvious hostility could be seen in her eyes, but it was only because of the presence of Xiuyuan and Sun Qiqi that she did not make a move for personal vendetta.

Qi Fan knew that he was in trouble, and it was too late to close the open door again. And although he could get a glimpse of the scene in the stone room, he couldn't break through the wall, and if he wanted to break the predicament in front of him, he had to borrow external forces to do it. Then, Qi Fan smiled awkwardly, stretched out his hand to the left, and decided to attract another group of people, and at the same time find the right time to return to the stone house and tell his aunt the news.

In a stalemate, Shui Ci suddenly glanced at Chan'er, then took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms, opened the bottle and looked at it. The four people on the opposite side were unclear for a while, but Chan'er was a little surprised:

"Is it 'Walking in the Snow Without a Trace'? ”

"Hmm. From just now, the vial shook slightly, I thought it was my delusion, but ......," Shui Ci said, and looked at Chan'er again, "Someone is approaching, and it is within a radius of ten miles." ”

"Even the people of Shibuya?"

"Possibly, at least someone with a snow condensation pill on their body. ”

"Who could it be?"

"How did Shibuya find out about this?" Xiu Yuan muttered to himself, and then said, "No, to be precise, Qu Yuehuai is already the new emperor who is preparing to ascend the throne, and the affairs of the Night Kingdom should always be paid attention to. ”

"You're not the only one here. Shui Ci deliberately confuses the other party's judgment, so he is false and real.

When Sun Chu heard this, he seemed to be aware of it, and couldn't help but remind Xiuyuan in a low voice:

"Uncle thought he had gotten rid of the people who were following him, but Xiuyao's people might have followed. ”

Shui Ci and Chan'er listened to it in their hearts, but they felt that the situation was not good.

Xiuyuan thought for a moment, and then said to Shui Ci:

"Fu Huan and Wanqing have had an unpleasant relationship with Shibuya, but they are all their own masters. Now that the two of them are under my command, I remember that there is no conflict between me and Ren Shibuya or Night Country. ”

"What does Xiuyuan Gongzi mean by this?" asked Shui Ci.

"If the Lord of the Seven Valleys is also interested in the treasure, is it possible for us to form an alliance before the arrival of foreign enemies?" Xiuyuan said bluntly.

"If the people who covet the treasure include Childe's fourth brother, then how can I be sure who is the 'foreign enemy' between me and Childe Xiuyao?"

"The Lord of the Seven Valleys is stable for the night kingdom, and I am concerned about the rise and fall of the old country, and our positions do not contradict each other. Xiu Yuan's implication is that the enemy with Xiu Yao is at stake.

Shui Ci sneered in his heart: If you know that I have the hatred of the destruction of the Shui family in my heart, and Chan'er is the princess of the two countries, do you still want to form an alliance and join forces?

Without waiting for Shui Ci to answer, the next door behind Xiuyuan and Fu Huan suddenly opened. Xiuyuan's subordinates, who had been blocked by the door for a long time, were overjoyed when they saw this. However, at the same time, in the alley behind the group, several people who were attracted by Qi Fan walked out.

"Princess. There was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.

"Peiqi?" Chan'er looked at the voice and couldn't help whispering to herself, "There are also Jinghu, Luodong, Yunwu, Yang Xin, Qihong, and Qirui." ”

"It's a lonely country. "Some of Xiuyuan's subordinates recognized Jing Hu and the others.

Xiuyuan looked at Chan'er when he heard the voice, and said with an uncertain expression:

"Are you the princess of the lonely country?"

"No wonder ......" Fu Huan realized it and muttered, "Only Princess Chanyuan will be familiar with Shen Xiao and Tang Yin, and there are people from Shibuya." ”

When You Wanqing heard this, her expression was slightly stunned, and her eyes were fixed on Chan'er for a long time.

At this moment, several people had stepped forward and saluted Chan'er.

"I met the princess here. Jing Hu said first.

"The subordinates and others were ordered to track Xiu Yao and the General Gang, and they didn't want to have a lot of organs in the cave, so they accidentally entered a fork in the road. Yunwu then said.

Xiu Yuan and Sun Xian immediately glanced at each other: Xiu Yao and Chang Yan are really here.

"How is the palace, how is Princess Fu's health?" Chan'er asked again and again.

"Rest assured, princess, everything is in order. Princess Fu is in good health, but her mood is not good, and she is very concerned about the prince. ”

"You and Sister Qirui ......" Chan'er's gaze turned to Qihong.

"The subordinates have found their lost family members. Qihong said briefly.

"To be able to recognize Hong'er's sister and brother, thank you to the princess. Qirui smiled at Chan'er and said, "At that time, I didn't know the identity of the princess. ”

"During the time that the princess is in the Night Kingdom, there is one more thing ......" Qi Hong said, looking at Pei Qi, "The emperor and Lord Xuan have given marriage to his subordinates and Pei Qi, and this time they are making an exception." ”

"It's a good thing, and I should say good to you. ”

"Thank you, princess. The two said in unison.

Then, Luo Dong took a step forward and said:

"There is another matter, the subordinates don't know whether to talk about it or not. ”

"Say it. Chan'er replied.

"I heard that the princess's identity was revealed in front of the Yuan family, but fortunately, there was no danger. ”

"Is this news spreading so quickly?"

"The emperor is always concerned about the safety of the princess, and sent someone to secretly investigate, only to learn that ......" Luo Dong wanted to speak and stopped, knelt down on one knee before saying again, "The princess knows that King Fu has antibodies to the poison of the bow in the past, so this 'dotted lip' is not harmful to King Fu, but it is just a cover for him to secretly cooperate with the Lord of Qugu." ”

Chan'er and Shui Ci exchanged a look, preventing Shui Ci from arguing with each other, suppressing the shock in his heart, and guiding Luo Dong to continue:

"You mean, the Third Emperor Uncle and the Qugu Lord are secretly plotting?"

The emperor didn't want to believe it, but the truth is...... King Fu betrayed the status of the princess to the lord of Qugu, and in exchange, he wanted to usurp the throne with the power of the Night Kingdom. Luo Dong said sharply.

Seeing Chan'er silent, Yang Xin suddenly added:

"According to reliable sources, An Liu and Yan Wu have brought King Fu to come today, and if the treasure falls into the hands of King Fu, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”

"So the person who has the Snow Ning Pill on her body is the sixth sister?" Shui Ci suddenly interjected.

Chan'er lowered her gaze, her eyes were full of suspicious, sad, and clear emotions, and then she bit her lower lip and shook her head with a chuckle. Chan'er denied it, of course, not Shui Ci's words, but the trust in her heart for many years - her trust in Emperor Xuan.

Chan'er has no doubts about Shui Ci's medical skills, and Yuan Han and her uncle and nephew are not half adulterated, how could she not believe that Yuan Han had "dotted her lips" in her body, and she didn't believe that Shui Ci tried her best to rescue. From Luo Dong's statement that he thought there was no loophole, Chan'er almost saw through all the truth.

It turned out that what Qu Hanyan wanted to say was not "beware of the Yuan family", but "Beware of Yuan Zhao".

It turned out that the one who really betrayed himself and had been planning with Qu Hanyan for a long time was Emperor Xuanhuang Yuan Zhao.

It turned out that the messenger who had been serving as a messenger for many years was Qihong, who was originally from the Night Kingdom.

It turned out that Pei Qi came all the way to Shibuya, just to convey Qu Hanyan's past seven years ago.

Therefore, Emperor Xuan personally gave marriage to Qihong and Peiqi, who had made meritorious contributions.

Therefore, the relationship between Emperor Xuan and his uncle and nephew is false.

So when Yuan Han sobered up, in the face of the treasure competition between several countries, Emperor Xuan chose to get rid of Yuan Han.

So once Chan'er reveals the truth of the matter, will a few people in front of her kill themselves in order to keep Emperor Xuan's secret?

Although Shui Ci didn't think of Chan'er as much for a while, he also had a lot of doubts and worries in his heart, he looked at Xiuyuan and his party who were watching the show opposite, and couldn't help but gently pat Chan'er's shoulder, and said in a low voice:

"Chan'er, I'll talk about King Fu's matter later, there are still unsolved things now. ”

Chan'er was awakened by the sound of water words, and when she looked up again, her eyes were calm.

Qi Rui immediately turned around, faced his old friend, and said:

"It's also fate to be able to meet again here. ”

Fu Huan snorted coldly, he had a grudge with Qirui for too long, and he didn't know which one to settle first. And You Wanqing only glanced at Qirui, and then turned her gaze back to Chan'er. Seeing this scene, Qirui's heart was extremely clear, and she couldn't help but say to Chan'er:

"There's something I might want to remind the princess. Wanqing's sweetheart has always been Brother Xiao, but it's a pity that Brother Xiao only has you in his heart. He betrayed the star altar and hurt Wanqing deeply. ”

What Qi Rui said pierced You Wanqing's heart, making You Wanqing's heart more annoyed than reason, and she attacked Chan'er without Xiuyuan's consent.

Chan'er was already angry because of Emperor Xuan's heart, heard what Qi Rui said, and thought of the thorn in her heart for Shen Xiao, and then You Wanqing suddenly attacked, she was extremely depressed at the moment, and she didn't give in at all, and she tried her best to take every attack, and fought back.

Shui Ci understood Chan'er's heart-piercing pain, and couldn't help glaring at Qirui, and Fu Huan was angry, and he also made a sudden move on Qirui.

After the fall of the Star Altar, only Fu Huan was still by You Wanqing's side, doing his best to take care of it, Fu Huan thought that he would gradually be able to move You Wanqing with his sincerity, but Qi Rui's words shattered Fu Huan's vision - You Wanqing's heart was still concerned about Shen Xiao.

Seeing that the four of them were fighting, Xiuyuan's subordinates and Jing Hu and others were tense. Qi Fan, the "culprit" who caused the chaos, had already taken the opportunity to rush back to the stone house.

~~~

After listening to Qi Fan's brief explanation of the situation in the rear, the woman in the stone house suddenly said with great interest:

"It's the little princess of Prince Gong's Mansion. I need to see her in person. ”

"At this moment, Chan'er and Xiuyuan are facing each other, if you want to see her, you have to be able to speak. ”

"Not only in the rear, but also in front of several people and horses are fighting, this cave has been silent for many years, and it can't withstand their tossing. ”

"Uncle and the four of them went to stop it. ”

"yes. Xiu Yao and his entourage followed Xiu Yuan and others, but they were also tracked by Tuoba Yabu, Shu Shao and Tuoba Yabu were opponents on the battlefield in the past, and the king of Qiangnan and Liao Chen seemed to have personal grievances, and a disagreement between the two sides caused a conflict. At this time, King Fu of the Lonely Kingdom and a little girl in Shibuya got into chaos again, and King Fu and the General Gang had a deep grudge, and then they also fought with Chang Yan and others. ”

"For today's plan, only by bringing together the front and back groups of people can we curb the situation of everyone fighting. Qi Fan thought for a while and said.

"It's not that you don't know, that Chang Yan's hostility towards Prince Gong's Mansion, as well as You Wanqing in the Star Altar and Liao Chen in Orange Flame Villa, are also separated by the hatred of killing their father, plus Xiuyuan and Xiuyao's hatred of Guheng, I am afraid that the situation will become more and more out of control. ”

"You're right, when the forces are separated, they have their own enemies, and when they come together, they are the rivalry between countries. Xiu Yuan and Xiu Yao seem to have the same position, but they are actually centrifugal and centrifugal. Moreover, there are people from Heng, Gu, Nan, and Ye countries, so that the treasure will not be divided by one family. ”

"Have you met the emperor, what does he say about Prince Su's legacy?"

"For the stability of the Five Kingdoms, unless the Heng Kingdom suffers natural disasters and man-made disasters, the treasure will never be born. ”

His broad mind is indeed the same as that of the previous emperor. The woman smiled and said to Qi Fan again, "If it weren't for the fact that there is a Mo family industry in the Hengye Border Tea Market this time, you would accompany Lan Hui to check the accounts, and the treasure would only be in the depths of your memory." ”

"Before my grandfather passed away, he entrusted the treasure to the aunt of the Wen family for protection, and I always remember it. When I was a child, I used to run around and play in the cave, and the fork in the road mechanism was also engraved in my mind. Qi Fan paused for a moment and said, "The reason why I left Lan Hui and brought Qian, Kun, Zhen, and Xun over by myself was not to worry about the treasure, but to help the innocent people of Belvedere repay their blood debts. ”

"You are an adult, how to deal with Xiuyao's affairs, my aunt and uncle will not interfere. The woman surnamed Wen nodded and said, "Just listen to you, lead two groups of people into the stone room where the treasure is hidden, and I will lead the princess." If things go off the rails, we have one more way to go. ”

"yes. ”
