Chapter 189: Night Detective

Chu Rui held his treasure tightly in his hand, his heart was a little warm, he moved very fast under his feet, walking through the shadow of the palace wall, avoiding the royal forest army patrolling back and forth, only to see him pass a palace in a few ways. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Yonghua Palace." He replied directly, and he was not ready to sell it.

"Yonghua Palace?" Yuan Shanjia rubbed these three words in his mouth.

If she remembers correctly, Yonghua Palace is the emperor's palace. At this time, the emperor should be there to be treated by the imperial doctor. His leg must not be saved, I really want to see the emperor's expression when he finds out that he has no leg, will he go crazy? Yuan Shanjia was a little excited.

Yonghua Palace is not particularly far from De'en An Palace, and with Chu Rui's speed, it took about a quarter of an hour to arrive.

On the way, several groups of patrols were avoided, and some detours were made.

Because there are patrolling Imperial Forest Army everywhere, especially near Yonghua Palace, not only are there many Imperial Forest Army patrolling, but there are more people standing guard, each holding a knife on guard, watching and listening to the six directions, and there are also a lot of secret guards distributed in the dark, forming an impermeable protective net.

But Chu Rui's kung fu was very good, and he quickly swept across the ground on the roof, and before the Imperial Forest Army and the secret guards could react, they had already swept away, and I was not discovered along the way.

Yuan Shanjia was very surprised. This kung fu is almost comparable to the first one, and entering the palace is like nothing, about this.

Probably to prevent someone from assassinating the emperor again, there are also some people patrolling the rooftops near the Yonghua Palace, where they can prevent people from sneaking up on the rooftops, and they can also condescendingly see the movement of the various corridors.

If there is any movement, they can clearly see it and react in a timely manner.

Chu Rui stood in the shadow of a palace wall with Yuan Shanjia in his arms, his body was pitch black, just enough to blend into the black, making it impossible to notice.

Yuan Shanjia looked at Chu Rui and asked silently what to do?

Chu Rui didn't notice her expression, he looked left and right, wrapped Yuan Shanjia with the cloak on his body, scurried through the intricate palace complex, and went around to the back of Yonghua Palace, which was a somewhat desolate palace, and the Imperial Forest Army didn't seem to be distributed here.

This palace is not big, not so much a palace, but a larger courtyard, in the middle of which more osmanthus trees are planted, at this time there are sparse yellow flowers, and there is a faint fragrance. There is a blue jade table in the middle where the moonlight is sprinkled, which reflects the light in the moonlight, and the moon is included in it.

The palace seemed to be cleaned up and cleaned very cleanly, with only a few scattered fallen leaves on the ground, and there was not a single dust on the stone table next to it, but there was a bleak feeling, and the desolation seemed even heavier in the milky white moonlight.

Chu Rui put down Yuan Shanjia and explored a few times on the wall of this desolate palace facing Yonghua Palace, and a stone gate appeared on the wall.

When the stone door opened, a passage down appeared.

Yuan Shanjia's eyes widened, there is a palace similar to the courtyard not far from Yonghua Palace, even if there is a secret passage in this palace, it still leads to the emperor's Yonghua Palace, is the emperor still hiding in the golden house here?

Yuan Shanjia looked left and right to see if there was a woman.

In fact, Yuan Shanjia guessed a little, but the Jiao in the golden house has long been far away from the world.

This courtyard-like palace was a place for the emperor's close female officials, who were distinguished from concubines and court maids.

Therefore, neither can live in a palace like a concubine, nor can you live in the back room where the palace maid lives, and the emperor will have a palace the size of a courtyard near Yonghua Palace.

The former owner of this palace was a female official of the emperor more than ten years ago.

That female official is the concubine of a minister's family, but although she is a concubine, her upbringing is very good. He is very gentle and generous in everything he does, and he is neither humble nor arrogant, and has his own bottom line.

This is a woman who has experienced all kinds of battles that the emperor has never met, so the emperor has a great affection for her, and it can even be said that he misses her.

Even because of this, a secret passage was established between Yonghua Palace and this female official's palace, just to avoid everyone's sight and pursue this female official.

It's a pity that even so, that very assertive female official has never liked the emperor, let alone fallen in love with him. She hadn't used this secret passage once, even though the emperor had come to show her favor over and over again.

On the one hand, her refusal annoyed the emperor at that time, but on the other hand, she was a little happy, and her love for her was further deepened.

It's a pity that when he hadn't reformed the female official, the Queen Mother found out about it.

The Queen Mother will never allow her son to fall in love with her female official. She knows that what men love most is this kind of tone that they can't ask for.

She gave the female official to the emperor as a concubine, and before the emperor could be happy, the female official died in the battle of the palace concubine.

Since then, he has left a deep imprint on the emperor's heart, and even now, he will come and sit when he is upset.

This story is little known, and it is naturally impossible for Yuan Shanjia to know, and the reason why Chu Rui found this secret passage was also by chance.

Chu Rui took out a night pearl that emitted a faint light from his arms, and pulled Yuan Shan Jiaxin down the stairs.

The stairs were very dry, but Chu Rui held Yuan Shanjia's hand tightly, as if he was afraid that she would lose it. After entering the secret passage, the stone door closed by itself.

In the darkness, the night pearl, which had a faint glow, became very bright.

Through the light of the night pearl, you can see that this secret passage must be some years old, and the stones on both sides are covered with moss, and no one has entered for a long time, so it is covered with cobwebs.

The secret passage was not so wide that it could only accommodate one person.

Chu Rui handed the Night Pearl to Yuan Shanjia, and gently pulled it out on his waist, it was a soft sword with a dark light, but at a glance at the edge of the knife, he knew how sharp it was, and it was a good sword.

But even a good sword is now used to break cobwebs.

He was in front again, stirring up the cobwebs with a soft sword while protecting Yuan Shanjia.

He also looked back from time to time to see if she was afraid.

But he is useless.

Yuan Shanjia didn't show a scared look at all, but looked a little excited, and his eyes revealed curiosity.

Chu Rui held Yuan Shanjia's hand tightly, a little depressed, he didn't know why he was depressed.

It seems that he has encountered Xiao Jia's matter, and he is always not like himself anymore.

After walking a few steps inside, before it was time for a cup of tea, a staircase appeared in front of me.

The stairs here are a little different from the ones you came down from.

The staircase was mossy and damp, and the surrounding soil was also watery. (To be continued.) )
