(719) Exploration

- "No, it's unlikely to be her." Wang Hong shook his head and said slowly: "This row of wardrobes was given to me by her eight years ago, when I was only about ten years old, and she didn't need to bother at all, just to monitor a ten-year-old child." Besides, I couldn't do as much as a ten-year-old kid at that time. ”

Xiao Xing pondered and said: "She also knows that as Her Highness grows up, it will become more and more difficult to control zhì, so she will dig the secret passage in the dormitory first at the age when Her Highness can still control it, and then use it when she needs to use it."

In the face of Xiao Xing's second speculation, Wang Hong was obviously silent for a long time, and then he shook his head again and said slowly: "Compared with the method of directly sending people to monitor me, it is too risky to chisel the walls of the Rafter Yang Palace a few years ago in advance, and the handle is too obvious. If the maidservants in my palace discover this secret passage, she will not escape investigation, because she gave this row of wardrobes, so why should she set herself on fire?"

This time it was Xiaoxing's turn to be silent.

After pondering for a while, Xiaoxing spoke again, and the object of questioning was still Concubine De: "She can also send someone to take care of this row of wardrobes, so that it will be difficult for anyone to discover the secrets in the cabinet."

"This one is even more difficult to do, Xiaoxing, don't you know, the maids in Huayang Palace are the most lax in their rules, and the maids who clean and tidy up this row of wardrobes every day have never fixed the list." Speaking of this, Wang Hong sighed, and said in a slightly changed tone: "Xiaoxing, when you think about it, every sentence is directly aimed at Concubine De, and there is obviously a hatred for her in your words. What's wrong with you? After all, she is the mother who has taken care of me from childhood to adulthood, and even if she has done something wrong, she must have no ill will towards me. ”

Listening to Wang Hong's words, Xiao Xing suddenly realized that no matter what kind of bad image Concubine De has become in her mind now, after all, Concubine De has taken care of him for more than ten years, and she is the most difficult benefactor for him to question and blame.

This kind of kindness cultivated from childhood to adulthood. It is the most deep-rooted, and it can most influence the recipient's judgment of a certain salary of the benefactor.

At this moment, Xiao Xing suddenly had a trance in his heart, feeling that he had complied with the prince's instructions to investigate Concubine De, which seemed to be a mistake from the beginning.

Because no matter what the results of her investigation are, the prince, who was taken care of and cared for by Concubine De, will only choose her good aspects in the end, and subconsciously correct the things she did wrong.

If you are very grateful to someone and love someone from the bottom of your heart, there is something wrong with that person. It seems that there is a good reason for it.

All of a sudden. Xiao Xing didn't know what angle to think about and continue to discuss the secret passage behind the closet with the prince. She had to be silent.

The second prince, Wang Hong, was also silent, his eyes fell to the ground, and he didn't know if he was beginning to question whether the secret passage was related to Concubine De, who took care of him when he grew up, or if he was thinking about something else.

When unsettling the woman who had pulled out of the closet. Xiao Xing had already realized that the woman who had fainted because she had been detained by force for too long was about an extremely important person to the prince, so she deliberately urged some strength from her palm when she pushed her arms that were stagnant with blood and qi.

The woman's qi and blood were quickly excited, her pale face gradually returned to normal, and she quickly woke up, unconsciously breathing a long sigh of relief.

If Lin Shan was present at this time, he would be surprised at the same time. There will be a lot of blame for this woman. And if Mo Ye is here, it will definitely be surprise and sadness overlapping repeatedly, and excitement and gaffes will be repeated.

But the two men whom the woman knew best were out of sight. Although the same man and a woman were squatting in front of her, the woman was not as well-behaved and quiet as Mo Ye, and she almost broke her arm when she saw her; The young man was mild-mannered, but in his true identity. It was difficult for her to compare him to Lin Shan.

The moment he opened his eyes and saw the person in front of him, before Li Shi could stand up, he directly changed his sitting posture to a kneeling position, and kowtowed: "The poor woman knocks to His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

"In the secret, there is no need to be polite." Wang Hong saw that Li Shi was awake, smiled, pointed at Xiaoxing, and said, "Xiaoxing, help Aunt Li get up."

After saying this, Wang Hong, who was squatting on the ground, also stood up by himself. But at this moment, he only felt that the sky was spinning, the soles of his feet were floating, and his body shook and he was almost about to fall to the ground.

Xiao Xing immediately let go of the Li Shi who was holding him, took a step forward, and put his cross arm on the prince's skinny shoulder.

"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?" Xiaoxing asked anxiously.

Wang Hong stretched out his hand to cover his forehead, patted his mind that was about to become a mess, and said with a little hurry: "A little dizzy, it's okay."

Li Shi, who stood up slowly, looked at the prince's hand wrapped in a cloth belt, she had lived for half her life, served several masters, and soon understood the general cause of the prince's dizziness. Approaching and holding the other shoulder of the prince, Li Shi said softly: "Sit down, slow down."

Wang Hong sat on the chair that Concubine De had just sat on, and when Li Shi was holding his arm, she only felt that although this young man was at the most robust age of a person's growth, in fact, his physique was too thin, and she couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

This is Mo Ye's child's half-brother, although he grew up in the palace, with fine clothes and food, and enjoyed all the glory, but he was not as strong as Mo Ye, who she took care of alone.

After helping Wang Hong sit down, Li Shi looked around the room, went to get the silk blanket on the couch, came back and gently put it on the young man's thin shoulder.

Taking this opportunity, the Li family was able to carefully examine the noble prince.

The facial features of a person will change somewhat as they become adults, but when they are young, most of their facial features are still inherited from their parents. Looking at Wang Hong's side face, the natural curvature of the corners of his mouth and eyes, as well as the height of the bridge of his nose, are slightly similar to Mo Ye, which is probably the same as inheriting his father Wang Chi.

Seeing this similarity, Li Shi couldn't help but think of Mo Ye, and then thought of Lin Shan. She suddenly felt that thirteen years ago, Lin Shan left Kyoto with Mo Ye, who was still in infancy, and this practice was not inappropriate for Mo Ye, and even the correctness of this practice could make Mo Ye useful for the rest of his life.

If Mo Ye had continued to stay in the palace at that time, what would have been the result now? Li didn't dare to think deeply.

Sometimes simply living can be more enjoyable. If for the title of a prince or princess. is going to torture yourself to the point of physical and mental pain, is it worth it or not?

Maybe this royal identity was originally something that Mo Ye deserved, but if she didn't fight for it, she must be cowardly?

Li Shi thought back to Mo Ye's mother, the young lady of the Ye family who had served for several years. Ye Ziqing seems to have a great passion and patience for the ledger that records the money in addition to her love for cooking all kinds of strange meals, but she is actually a lazy person to think.

In addition to tasting all kinds of food and counting silver, Ye Ziqing also likes to wander around, when the Ye family's ancestral house was so spacious. couldn't stop her. At that time, the world outside was so chaotic. She also likes to run around. It frightened the servants around her.

However, the longer he left his own young lady, the more Li Shi felt that he had traveled the world with his young lady back then. Although those days were full of thrills, if a person had that experience, it would not be in vain.

If Ye Ziqing can live until now, she will definitely continue her preferences to this day. And the companions she chooses to take with her to travel the world today may no longer be some elderly servants, but her grown daughter.

If things really turn out like this, then the status of the princess will undoubtedly become a great obstacle to free walking. And Ye Ziqing's traces of resisting this obstacle seem to have been revealed as early as thirteen years ago - she has a big belly, but she still prefers to live in a simple villa for maids. Avoid the palace deeply.

After sitting for a while, Wang Hong gradually regained some of his spirits, and when he looked to the side, he saw that Li's gaze fell on his shoulder, but the look in her eyes was a little floating. It's like you're wandering somewhere else.

After a little hesitation, Wang Hong prompted: "Aunt Li?"

The title of Li Shi was called by Wang Hong and Mo Ye.

Since three years ago, Wang Hong has officially started to investigate the cause of the death of Concubine Ye, Wang Hong has found out the village where Concubine Xian's daughter, that is, his half-sister Mo Ye, lived.

Mo Ye kept calling Li "aunt" when he was a child, in fact, Li took care of Mo Yedi meticulously. When he was a young Mo Ye, how many nights did he fall asleep in the lullaby sung by Li's softly. In a sense, Li's existence makes up for some of Mo Ye's lack of maternal love.

Thinking of this, Wang Hong held the same courtesy, and also called her "aunt" when he saw her secretly, but he held a bit of sincerity.

Hearing the call, Li Shi came back to her senses, because her mind was deep in distant memories just now, she was a little embarrassed for a while, she smiled a little reluctantly, suddenly sighed again, and said slowly: "The poor woman touched His Royal Highness's noble body, so thin, the poor woman couldn't help but be a little ......."

Regarding his own inadequacy, Wang Hong didn't want to mention it, so he skipped it with a faint smile. He chose an insignificant word at random, nodded at the woman in the cloth skirt standing beside him with his gaze, and then asked: "This is my maid, she doesn't know your identity, that's why she made a move on you, didn't hurt you just now, right?"

"Servant girl Xiaoxing, there is something reckless and offensive, and I ask Senior Li for forgiveness." Xiaoxing, a woman in a cloth skirt, hurriedly bowed down to Li.

Li Shi hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, with a girl like you staying by His Highness's side, it's more than little to say anything."

Hearing the woman's words, a trace of sorrow appeared on Xiaoxing's face. Just now, she was in the secret passage, only separated by a thin wall of wooden planks, and she had already heard the conversation between Concubine De and the prince in the inner room of the dormitory clearly. She faintly realized that she was afraid that it would be difficult for her to come back, even if the prince promised to find a way to take her back just now.

Sure enough, before Li's words fell, she saw the prince shaking his head slightly, and said softly: "Xiaoxing is no longer my maidservant."

Li's expression was sluggish, but she soon found that as the prince's maidservant, she should at least be dressed in finely woven ribbons, but the little star girl was dressed in coarse cloth clothes of a folk girl.

In addition, there was a dark red mark on the corner of the girl's forehead. Under the not-so-bright light, Li Shi, who had just woken up from a fainting, thought it was a kind of palace costume at first glance, and the red was painted on his cheeks. But if you look closely, it's not hard to see that it's actually a broken scar.

Although the candidates for the palace maids are not required to be as beautiful as flowers, their faces must be born upright, and their bodies must not have zài defects, which is the basic criterion for selection.

Just now in the secret passage of the closet. Li's hands were reversed, which made her dizzy and dizzy, but she could still hear and remember some of the conversation between Concubine De and the prince. Li Shi didn't remember any sentences about Xiaoxing in those conversations, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Why is this?" Did Little Star do something wrong?"

"If she did something wrong, it was probably me." Wang Hong glanced at Xiao Xing deeply, and after a moment of silence, he said calmly: "You should have heard it just now, that handkerchief of yours was taken by Concubine De, if she wants to check." You can't avoid it. She's going to look up someone. Even if it's just picking up a handful of the man's used combs. You can also sniff out the clues from the hair oil on the comb. ”

"Xiaoxing knows that in the future, Xiaoxing will find a secret place and live quietly." Xiaoxing hung his head. Although she had already prepared in her heart, this time she secretly entered the palace. After telling the prince that she had searched for information in the Northland for three years, she would never return, but when the matter was announced by the prince herself, who had served her for several years, she still couldn't suppress a wave of sadness in her heart.

When he saw his personal maid Xiaoxing return three years after leaving the palace, Wang Hong's original intention was to wash away the sins he deliberately inflicted on her three years ago, and then take her back to him. Unexpectedly, because of Concubine De's surprise visit, he was forced to abandon this plan. If he wanted to tell Xiaoxing this evil in person, he wouldn't feel sad in his heart.

The two of them talked to this point, and Li Shi on the side could probably understand it. At the same time, she could also hear that there was a hint of reluctance between the words of the two people.

Once, Li Shi also had a lot of reluctance to the death of his young lady, which was goodbye. And life and death are often inextricably linked. So these two words are often put together, although some people are alive, after parting ways and going against the grain, they are gradually drifting away, and it is difficult to see each other again when they live.

After a little deliberation, Li Shi said: "Your Highness, in fact, the poor woman has been thinking about it for the past few days, if she stays in His Highness's palace like this again, I am afraid that it will inevitably bring trouble to His Highness." You might as well go out of the palace with the little star girl and stay in a secluded place for a while, if Your Highness has a call, of course, the poor woman can also answer the call at any time, which is also a safe plan for each other. ”

"This idea of yours is good, but ...... Perhaps there is a better way out of this matter. Wang Hong hesitated, and suddenly changed direction, "Do you know where that secret passage comes from?"

"Provenance?" Xiao Xing's eyes flashed with suspicion, and he immediately understood, and immediately said: "Because Xiao Xing also broke through the entrance of the secret passage for the first time, and he was worried about His Highness's side, he couldn't continue to go deeper." But just now, Xiaoxing was standing at the entrance of the secret passage, and he could feel a light breeze pouring into the depths of the passage, as if this passage was not shallow. ”

"That's right. If you want to dig a wall and drill a tunnel, there must be loose soil discharged, but I rarely leave Huayang Palace, and I used to sleep lightly at night, but I didn't notice it at all, and this loose soil could only be sent out from the other side. Wang Hong pondered for a while before continuing: "At the back of this room, leaning on a chess house, I have been there many times, but I feel that the four walls of the chess house are very normal, so where does this secret passage space come from?"

Li Shi suddenly said at this time: "It can also be a double-layer wall."

Wang Hong was puzzled: "Double? How is that fixed?"

"This double-layer wall can be divided into horizontal and longitudinal double-layers. If His Highness had called a craftsman to measure the total length of the hall, or the width of the bedroom, and then compared it with the chess house, the result would have been obtained. Li Shi racked his brains and explained with great difficulty, and finally said: "In the early years, the prince spent all night at the desk making drawings, and the poor woman would enter his study every other day, or add some charcoal fire for heating in winter, or add some herbal tea to quench thirst in summer and summer. Sometimes, when he was disturbed and his train of thought was interrupted, he simply stopped writing for a while, and casually explained something to the poor woman. But the poor woman doesn't remember much. ”

"It's okay, you can remember so much, it can already help us a lot." From Li's first rough explanation, Wang Hong had already learned a piece of information with great significance, and he was surprised, and asked Li Shi to repeat what he had just said.

After carefully sorting out this explanation in his mind, Wang Hong showed a happy smile on his face, and said slowly: "If this idea is true, then this secret passage may have existed since the beginning of the construction of the palace, and it is not very related to the design of Concubine De."

Xiao Xing had already understood at this time that this secret passage was not carved out of the inherent walls, but had long been included in the ranks of architectural design. belongs to the outer wall of the wall.

If you count the construction time of Huayang Palace, it will have to be pushed back to a long time ago. Facing east, the palace can receive the morning sun at the earliest hour every day, even in the cold winter, it can bear more warmth, and the pine forest behind the palace is like a cover, and it can avoid the scorching heat of the west. This palace occupies the foundation of a princess's dormitory in the previous dynasty, and the current emperor has pushed the building full of incense grease powder to build a new Huayang Palace with a rather elegant style and warmth for the second son who is frail.

The age of this palace is almost the same age as that of the Southern Zhao Dynasty. When this palace was newly built, Concubine De was not as favored as she is now. I am afraid that I will not be able to instruct the core officials of the Ministry of Industry to secretly tamper with the drawings. After revising the design draft, it was kept secret for so many years.

It's just that the outer wall of this wall was built. The traces are hidden very secretly, and there is something strange in this kind of concealment. Since it has long been in the scope of architectural design, why should not the people who live and use this building know? What secrets must be sealed?

Thinking of this, Xiao Xing couldn't help asking, "If it was designed like this at the beginning of the construction of the palace." So what's the point of such a construction?"

Wang Hong didn't explain, but just handed his gaze to Li. Li Shi thought for a while, and then explained: "The construction of double walls is generally to block the outdoor heat and exposure in summer, but this kind of wall seems to be mostly built on the periphery, and looking at the approximate location of the secret passage in the wardrobe just now, it seems to be in the middle partition wall."

"Instead of speculating for no reason, let's go and see for yourself where that secret passage comes from." Wang Hong, who was silent for a moment, suddenly spoke, and just finished speaking. And he stood up. Mentally so engrossed in the sudden passage that he rose abruptly, and before he could close the thin blanket on his shoulders, the silky softness of the fine plush woven blanket slid down his thin but straight shoulders to his ankles.

Xiaoxing hurriedly bent down to pick up the blanket, and she had just stood up straight. Seeing that Wang Hong had already walked quickly to the screen, she had to step up and chase after her.

Wang Hong opened the wardrobe door and scanned it again, but still didn't find anything, so he raised the doubt he had in his heart when he opened the cabinet door before: "I still can't see what secret passages can be in this cabinet, how did you get through?"

Although Wang Hong was thin, he was very tall, and Xiao Xing stood in front of him, and his forehead was no more than his lips.

Xiao Xing tiptoed and lifted the silk blanket in his hand onto Wang Hong's shoulder again, and pinched the two corners of the blanket to tie a knot in front of his neck, making the blanket a simple cloak that could not be thrown off lightly. After doing this, she opened her mouth to explain the secret of the secret passage: "The door of the secret passage has been specially controlled, and one person cannot open it, so two people need to step on both ends of the cabinet under the board one left and one right."

"That's really hard to spot." When Wang Hong heard this, a hint of novelty appeared in his eyes, and he said with a smile: "Generally, only clothes are placed in the closet, even if palace maids usually come to clean up clothes, there is no need to stand in." And hiding people like me in it, and hiding two at once, is also a very rare thing. Xiaoxing, am I lucky to be hit?"

At this time, Xiaoxing's face did not have a relaxed expression, because she had already seen that the prince was really going to go in and find out.

"Your Highness, are you really going to go in?" Xiao Xing's eyes were full of worry, "It's better to pick a few reliable guards and go in again another day." ”

Wang Hong had already stood on the side of the cabinet, his eyes pointed to the other end of the cabinet, he didn't speak, but the meaning was clearly expressed, and there was no room for change.

Xiaoxing knows the temper of this prince very well, although he has a weak physique and lives a simple life all the year round, but in his body, there is a very strong courage and bravery. An unknown threat is extremely difficult to fear him.

Perhaps it was because of his father's extremely high position and extensive protection that he was able to act without fear. But there is also a possibility that this is the character he inherited from his father, and it is the character that a prince should have.

But the fact that individuals are not afraid of danger does not mean that danger does not exist, and no matter how bold the prince is, he only has a flesh and blood body.

After struggling inwardly for a long time, in the face of the prince, Xiaoxing finally chose to take a step back. But her obedience was not simple, she ran to the couch in front of the screen, opened the crack drawer that she was so familiar with, and took out the Imperial Flying Fish Dagger from it. Although this dagger is short, it is sharp enough to cut through the gold stone lightly. It is the most powerful self-defense weapon in Huayang Palace. After taking the flying fish dagger, Xiaoxing picked up the triangular glass lamp on the table again, and then returned to the back of the screen.

Handing the flying fish dagger to the prince, Xiaoxing broke off two of the three candles on the triangular glass lamp, took one for himself, and handed another one to Li Shi, while explaining: "Holding the candle in your hand is more solid than holding it on the lamp base."

Li Shi nodded when he heard this.

If you really encounter a lurking attack in the secret passage later, it is indeed easy to cause the candle and the lamp holder to separate from the lamp holder in the fierce fight. Such a beautiful thing. It can often only be used in a harmonious environment.

I did everything I could think of. Xiaoxing lit the candles held by the two of them separately. He also told the prince: "Wait a while, the maid will walk in front, and Senior Li will walk behind, if Your Highness sees that the candle flame in my hand has a tendency to weaken, it means that the breath in this secret passage is stagnant." You can't go any further. ”

Seeing that the prince nodded, Xiaoxing stepped into the wardrobe, stood in the other corner of the wardrobe, and kicked lightly.

There was a slight sound of metal "gridding" similar to that developed by coiled iron bullets through the cabinet wall, and the wooden planks on the wall side of the wardrobe "Bang! A sound broke from the middle, and when the two ends of the income were unknown, revealing a large hollow in the middle, Xiao Xing said quickly: "After the door of the secret passage is opened, there will be a pause for about three breaths. It will close automatically! ”

After that, she was the first to step into the secret passage, Wang Hong followed, and when Li's heel had just crossed the low hurdle at the secret passage, the two doors of the secret passage, which were covered by wardrobe planks as a surface, were "booming!" "It slammed shut.

Stand in the middle of a secret passage with two brick walls. Wang Hong had also felt what Xiaoxing had said before, the breeze that was moving in the secret passage. Looking at the candle flame in Xiaoxing's hand trembling slightly, Wang Hong said: "It seems that the air in this secret passage is active, and there is no such thing as stagnation."

Xiaoxing didn't make much of an excuse for this, and only said briefly: "After all, it's the first time I've entered this kind of place, so it's always good to be careful."

Wang Hong just smiled indifferently at this, he knew that if Xiaoxing wanted to be serious about one thing, the four cows would not be able to turn around. After a pause, Wang Hong glanced at Li Shi behind him, and asked with some puzzlement: "If this secret passage is really built in the middle of two walls, now it seems that it should be built in depth, but why do I often go to the chess house next door to this wall, but I never notice that there are many houses in that house?"

"Maybe it's the placement of the utensils in the chess room, which is a little misleading about the perspective of the people in it." Li Shi tried to think about the strange thoughts about such things that Lin Shan occasionally talked about when he was chatting with her, and she suddenly raised a hand in front of her eyes, separated her five fingers, and then continued: "There are blind spots in the line of sight, for example, a poor woman can see the face of His Highness completely through her fingers, but from the angle from which Her Highness is standing, she cannot see the poor woman's face through her fingers."

Wang Hong really wanted to follow Li's practice and raise his hand to verify this statement. However, he is no longer a child, his impulsiveness is gradually controlled by reason, and as a prince, his own style and cultivation that he has trained for more than ten years will also imperceptibly change some behavioral characteristics.

He smiled slightly, and agreed with Li Shi's statement, and the hand hanging down his side only moved his fingertips, and there was no other movement.

Li Shi also lowered his hand, looked at the prince with a smile and said: "However, His Royal Highness already knows the mystery behind this wall today, and I think when I enter the chess house again in the future, I will find that the items in the chess house are deliberately arranged."

Wang Hong smiled and nodded: "If you see through the things first, and have a plan in your heart, you will no longer believe in the things that are concealed, this is the principle."

When the two of them talked about these things, their steps gradually slowed down. And when the two of them finished talking and looked ahead, they saw that they were not much behind Xiaoxing, who was walking in front, because Xiaoxing had already stopped.

The front end of the secret passage is not unusual, but after walking a little deeper, Wang Hong and the three of them found that this secret passage is not always forward, it is not only tortuous, but also strangely folded underground.

Looking at the road ahead, which was also blocked by a brick wall, and the wooden board cover with a large gap under the wall, Wang Hong hesitated and said, "Could it be that the exit of the secret passage is underground?"

Xiaoxing said disapprovingly: "Where is there a road underground? If it leads to the underground, it is not called an exit. ”

Except for insects and rats, which live in burrows in the ground - and even then, they often crawl to the surface to breathe and feed, and the underground is only a permanent place for people to live after death, where there is no way to live.

Wang Hong hesitated for a moment, then squatted down in front of the wooden board embedded in the ground, and then tapped the wooden board with the flying fish dagger with the leather sheath in his hand. Hearing the sound of the hollow, Wang Hong pulled out the flying fish dagger. Prepare to pry that plank.

"Your Highness, don't move." Seeing this scene, Xiao Xing hurriedly stopped, "The secret passage here is very elegant, just the entrance is very exquisite, I'm afraid there is another mystery in it, Your Highness must be careful." Let's wait for the maid to take a look around and see if there are any new trigger points, maybe this plank can open on its own. ”

"It's fine." Wang Hong stood up, flipped the hand holding the Flying Fish Dagger, and handed the dagger to Xiao Xing, "Give me the candle for the time being." You hold this. ”

Xiao Xing hesitated slightly. And then they were exchanged according to the word.

Xiaoxing was very wary of the wooden plank embedded in the ground. After Wang Hong gave her permission to build a new one, she took a few steps back, and reached a position where she thought she was not likely to be injured by the crossbow arrows that might be stored under the wooden plank, and then she held the flying fish dagger. Begin to probe the wall near the plank.

After beating it repeatedly, all I got was the sound of a solid wall. Because I don't know if there is an unknowing palace maid in the house outside the wall at this time, Xiaoxing is also afraid of knocking too hard.

Her attention eventually returned to the wooden board on the ground, only the board was noticeably hollow when it was struck.

Looking at this board, gradually Xiaoxing also had the idea of prying it open.

But she didn't choose to do it in the end.

When he used to serve by the prince's side, he benefited from this prince who liked to read, and Xiaoxing also read many books, most of which were regarded by the prince as a strange technique on the side. Although the prince does not read such books. But with the convenience of the most relied on maidservants, he could find as much as he wanted, so as to kill the boring time when he could only stay in a courtyard with him.

According to the usual records of the mechanism technique in the Qimen no Shu, the more complex the mechanism, the more there is a kind of mystery of mutual Sasuke. If you break a mechanism. It may lead to the paralysis of the entire group of organs. For example, in the secret passage where she is at this time, if she uses forceful means to pry open the covering board on this tunnel, the price she will pay for this may be the closure of the entrance door in the closet just now.

This is a common problem of ordinary traps, and there is still an extremely sinister category in traps, which are mostly used in the tombs of nobles who have sealed rich funerary treasures. If this secret passage belongs to this kind of location where a sinister mechanism is set up, then the result of forcibly priing open this plank may be that the four walls instantly turn into a crossbow array of stray arrows.

In an instant, Xiaoxing's mind had all the thoughts staggered, but in the end, only one thought as small as a feather but unusually bright froze, and gradually expanded and became clear.

Her eyes froze, and the hand holding the Flying Fish Dagger suddenly grasped, and quickly knocked on a brick on the left wall of her body, and at the same time, a staggered seven-star step slipped out of the soles of her feet, and at a very fast speed, the dagger struck a brick on the right wall.

"Ding!"

"Ding!"

The sound of the high-quality metal body of the Flying Fish Dagger, which had been forged by thousands of hammers, was surprisingly crisp, like the sound of fine porcelain colliding.

But Xiaoxing did this at this time, not to listen to the sound, every time she knocked out left and right, it was obviously matched with a pair of double rings, trying to shorten the time distance between the two rings.

Her somewhat thin figure was jumping from left to right and then from right to left at a very fast speed in the secret passage that could accommodate about three people standing side by side, and the shadows overlapped in a dazzling way.

Fortunately, Wang Hong stood far enough, otherwise the candle flame in his hand would not have just trembled.

In the past, she could often see Lin Shan practicing swordsmanship in the small courtyard of Xingjia Village, and the soft sword in Lin Shan's hand would also appear like a fishnet-like phantom in the rapid dance, but the footwork on the soles of his feet was not as complex and intertwined as the girl in front of him.

After watching for a moment, Li Shi couldn't help but wonder and said, "What is the intention of Miss Xiaoxing to do this?"

When she looked at the prince, she saw that the prince had already turned his gaze away from the phantom, and it was obvious that he had already seen a little dazzling.

Hearing Li's question, the second prince Wang Hong raised his gaze slightly and explained: "She's trying."
