Chapter Seventy-One: The Chamber of Secrets

He searched every corner of the room, but he didn't find a hidden mechanism, could he have guessed wrong?

Maybe he really guessed wrong, Shangguan Tao shook his head helplessly, and just as he was about to leave, a scream suddenly came from his ears, and he quickly put his head against the wall, but the scream disappeared. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Did he hear it wrong? But the voice was so real that it didn't sound like a man's voice.

Shangguan Tao knocked on the wall, and there was a knocking sound from inside, he couldn't help but look awkward, the back of this wall was empty!

Maybe it's around here! Shangguan Tao touched the wall, it was smooth and cold, and there was no mechanism at all.

Just when he was lost, a landscape painting next to him caught his eye, this landscape painting hung in the upper left of the bookshelf, the position is low, it is really a bit strange, maybe the mechanism is hidden under this painting.

So he reached out and slowly uncovered the painting.

Chu Ziyu wiped off the makeup on Chen Mengdie's face little by little, her facial features gradually became clearer, although her face was slightly pale, but it was very pitiful.

"Good night, girl." Chu Ziyu parted the broken hair on her forehead to both sides and kissed it gently.

Just as he turned to leave, suddenly a cold hand grabbed him tightly, "Father, don't leave me, don't leave me"

Chu Ziyu turned his head and saw that the person on the bed was frowning slightly, and tears were sliding down the corners of his eyes on the pillow.

Seeing her so fragile, Chu Ziyu really couldn't leave ruthlessly, he held Chen Mengdie's hand and whispered in her ear: "Girl, be good, my father will not leave you." ”

"Really?" Chen Mengdie slowly opened her eyes, and saw that under the hazy light, her father's loving face was right in front of her.

"Father, is it really you?" Chen Mengdie's eyes were full of tears, her vision was blurred, she used her cold hands to tightly grasp Chu Ziyu's big rough hands, put them on her face and rubbed them gently.

When she was young, her father used these warm hands to teach her to ride a horse and teach her to write, and the thick cocoons between the palms were sharpened by her father when he practiced martial arts.

Chu Ziyu saw that her eyes were full of anticipation, and he couldn't bear to break her dream, so he nodded heavily.

"Father!" Chen Mengdie cried and threw herself into Chu Ziyu's arms, "I knew you wouldn't abandon your daughter!" ”

"How could I abandon you?" Chu Ziyu gently stroked her long hair, greedily smelling the fragrance between her hair.

Wrong! This is not her father's voice, Chen Mengdie suddenly reacted, her father is no longer alive, and she is not dreaming, so the person she is holding cannot be her father!

Chen Mengdie pushed the other party's body away vigorously, looking at him vigilantly with a pair of black eyes, and she didn't let down her guard until she was sure that the other party was Chu Ziyu.

"Where is this?" Chen Mengdie looked around, and saw that the space here was very narrow, and the furnishings in the room were very simple, except for the bookshelves and tables, there was only this wooden bed left.

"This is my secret room, not many people know about it, and whenever I'm in a bad mood, I come here." Chu Ziyu replied very naturally, and didn't seem to mind sharing everything about him with her, including this private secret room.

"Really? I can't see that a merry character like you also likes to be quiet. Chen Mengdie said nonchalantly.

"Of course," Chu Ziyu nodded the tip of her nose and asked, "Don't you think it's good for us to chat face-to-face like this?" ”

Chen Mengdie stepped back, deliberately widened the distance between the two, and said unnaturally: "I don't like to chat with you face-to-face. ”

"Duduplicity," Chu Ziyu leaned in and lowered his voice, "You don't like to chat with me, don't you want to"

"You're thinking too much." Chen Mengdie turned her head away, bit her lower lip, and advised herself to be patient, although she wanted to give him a punch, but her arms were sore, and she was afraid that this punch would only fail.

Chu Ziyu stared at the fine beads of sweat on her nose, and couldn't help but want to tease her, "Otherwise, what did you do with me just now?" ”

"Dirty!" Chen Mengdie glared at him fiercely and couldn't help but scold.

"Haha, okay, I won't tease you." Chu Ziyu smiled heartily, his eyes had an inexplicable attraction, and Chen Mengdie couldn't help but be stunned.

"I have to go," Chu Ziyu took two steps and then turned back and instructed, "There's food on the table, if you're hungry, eat something before you go to bed." ”

"Got it." Chen Mengdie lay down with her back and replied sullenly.

Chu Ziyu saw that she was not in high spirits, so he didn't bother anymore, opened the stone door and went out.

After the stone door was closed, Chen Mengdie got up from the bed with a "grunt", she looked at the clothes she had been changed, she was so ashamed that she almost exploded, she bit the quilt, and thought hatefully: This damn Chu Ziyu, eat her tofu while she was unconscious, she will have to get this account back sooner or later!

"Ahh Chu Ziyu rubbed his nose, it's really strange, he didn't catch a cold, how could he sneeze for no reason? Who must be thinking about him, Chu Ziyu couldn't help but think narcissistically.

"Your Highness." Suddenly, a respectful and low voice sounded in his ears, Chu Ziyu quickly retracted his thoughts, followed the prestige, and saw Shangguan Tao standing outside the door waiting for him.

"Lord Totong, what are you doing here?" Chu Ziyu asked impatiently.

"The lowly is responsible for sending His Highness back to the ancestral hall." Shangguan Tao replied without hurrying.

Chu Ziyu narrowed his eyes and said unhappily: "Don't I know the way?" It's not that Lord Totong doesn't know that I hate people spying on me the most. ”

"Your Highness, you can misunderstand Lord Dutong!" Ah Huang saw that Shangguan Tao was misunderstood by His Royal Highness, so he hurriedly explained to him, "Just now, the head of the guard wanted to turn this place upside down, if it wasn't for Lord Dutong to stop him, this Kunyu Hall wouldn't know what it would be like by him." ”

When Chu Ziyu heard this, his tone became a little kinder, and he squinted his eyes and asked, "Lord Dutong, is this indeed the case?" ”

"Yes." Shangguan Tao replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Seeing that Shangguan Tao didn't speak in detail enough, Ah Mao hurriedly added: "Your Highness, you haven't seen how arrogant the head of the guard is!" He said that he would dig you out even if he dug you out three feet into the ground! I didn't even take His Highness in my eyes! Later, thanks to Lord Dutong to break the siege, they left, if it weren't for Lord Dutong, Your Highness would have been miserable! ”

"You can shut up!" Chu Ziyu was very unhappy when he saw Ah Mao praising Shang Guan Tao vigorously, and his cold eyes almost froze Ah Mao into a popsicle.

Ah Mao knew that he had accidentally said the wrong thing, so he quickly shut up and didn't dare to squeak again all the way.

Standing outside the ancestral hall gate, Chu Ziyu stopped in front of the head of the guards and asked arrogantly, "Do you know who I am?" ”

The leader's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly replied: "His Royal Highness is the prince of Chu and the future king of Chu. ”

"It's good to know." Chu Ziyu said, pulled out the long sword hanging from the leader's waist and waved, and a strand of black hair fell to the ground.

"Remember, this is a punishment for being disrespectful, and if there is a next time, watch your head." Chu Ziyu threw the long sword on the ground and entered the ancestral hall without looking back.

Through the paper window on the wooden door, the leader replied respectfully: "Thank you, Your Highness, for not killing." ”
