CHAPTER XIX

"Brother, let's go too, maybe there will be an unexpected discovery", Qingyan's eyes flashed, and he whispered to Li Qingmin!

Li Qingmin's eyes were exactly the same as her, and they looked at each other with Qingyan, the two looked at each other and smiled, and then asked Yuedong to leave the tea money, and the four of them also went out of the tea shop.

At the same moment, in a high-door mansion, Wang Chen was looking at a letter, and the sound of the bead curtain shaking on the door sounded, obviously someone came in, but his eyebrows and eyes did not change at all.

"Master, Old Yin sent someone to send a message, saying that the fourth lady of the Li family and her brother Li Qingmin have gone to Old Man Liu's courtyard."

Wang Chen raised his head suddenly, frowned and nodded.

"Master, but do you want to continue to watch?"

"Naturally, let Yin Lao continue to look at the tea shop, and call back the first, second, and third places from the north and put them next to the fourth lady."

"What?" Qi Ying exclaimed in disbelief, "Master, but the three of them are now protecting Miss Cui's ......."

Wang Chen glared at him sharply, "You're questioning my decision!" ”

Qi Ying's face turned pale instantly, and he said in a trembling voice: "My subordinates don't dare."

Wang Chen also ignored him anymore, waved at him to signal that he could go out, and at the same time tore the letter in his hand to shreds with a calm face.

"Cui Wanniang, she actually dared to sneak back to the Li family at this time, and she was still thinking about bad things for her, hum...... It's delusional.

The Qingyan brothers and sisters took two subordinates and followed the two to Old Man Liu's courtyard all the way.

The two sneaked into the courtyard, and Qingyan originally wanted to follow in, but was stopped by Qingmin, but in the blink of an eye, the two were thrown out of the courtyard.

Qingyan was stunned for a moment, and guessed in his heart that there were probably other people in this courtyard at this time, and they were extraordinary, otherwise such two big men would still throw it away, and he was very glad that Qingmin was careful.

Qingmin and Qingyan glanced at each other, carefully hiding in a narrow alley on the opposite side of the courtyard, poking their heads out just in time to see the gate of the courtyard.

And Yuedong and Biqing squatted on the other side.

This has been waiting for a long time, except for the two people who were thrown out before, there is no movement of human existence.

Could it be that she guessed wrong?

"Brother...... Shall we go in? Qingyan asked Qingmin who was standing in front of her in a low voice.

Qing Min tilted his head slightly, and said calmly: "Wait another quarter of an hour, if there is still no movement, let's go in again."

His calm voice made people feel extremely down-to-earth and reliable at the moment, Qingyan nodded lightly, and yawned quietly.

Gradually, a familiar sleepiness hit, Qingyan suddenly felt that she had been pushed, she woke up, and a pair of misty apricot eyes stared at Qingmin and said, "Brother, have you made a new discovery?"

Qingmin glanced at her helplessly and said, "You can sleep so well, no wonder Mother Zhang said that you are very sleepy now, but there is something wrong with your body?"

At this time, Qingyan couldn't care about listening to his sudden concern, wrinkled his nose and inhaled: "Brother, it's a big deal, don't talk about me."

Qingmin also felt that it was not appropriate to talk about these words at this time, so he put away the worry on his face and whispered: "It is estimated that the people inside have left from other places, let's go in and investigate now."

Qingyan and the others flashed to the gate, leaving a gap between the two doors, and then Yuedong and Biqing also followed.

Qingmin pushed Qingyan in the corner, and then motioned for the end of the moon to go, only to see Yuedong carefully peeking in through the crack in the door, until he was sure that there was no one in the courtyard, he cautiously pushed the door open.

Gently moving into the courtyard, Qingyan and the others followed him closely, carefully observing the surroundings.

A small courtyard, three low rooms, looks a little dilapidated and dirty, and there is a big hole in the middle of the courtyard, I don't know if anyone has looked over this hole, the mouth of the hole is full of mounds of earth, some big and some small.

"Brother, is this really the hole leading there?" Qingyan looked into the cave and asked the doubts in his heart.

"I'm not sure either".

"Then there's only one way, let's go down and see"!

As soon as Qingyan's words fell, Qingmin looked at her and said, "Don't be impulsive", and Biqing also held her hand worriedly, as if she was afraid that she would jump into the hole at any time.

"Miss, if you want to go down, Yuedong and I will go down first, you can't be impulsive!"

Qingyan touched her nose in a sneer, to be honest, she really didn't dare to go down, and her hard-won life couldn't be given to Lord Hades so inexplicably.

"Rest assured...... Miss, I have only a mouth and no guts."

Qingmin gave Yuedong a look, Yuedong nodded, put his hands behind his back, and fell straight down from the hole.

Qingyan looked back at her own brother and tried to ask him if he was going to go down together!

"No need, wait for news from Yuedong, as long as we are sure that there is a road under this cave and it leads to the palace, then we don't need to go down."

Qingyan nodded, and began to say slowly: "If our guess is true, then this passage has been around for some years, and more than ten years ago, it was just a short time after Concubine Shu entered the palace, where did he get so much manpower and material resources to dig such a road, who helped him, and what is their purpose?"

As she spoke, her eyebrows and eyes had changed from a smile to a deep and serious one, and at first glance it was not as calm as she should be at her age.

"I can't care so much now, when my father comes back, if I can't bring my mother back in the normal way, then ...... We can only stab the monarch for all that we have discovered", the cruelty in his eyes flashed, and he said in a cold and sad voice.

Qingyan couldn't help but shudder: "Brother, don't you think that we have gone too smoothly since we looked for flowers to discovered this courtyard?" Don't you suspect that someone deliberately led us step by step into their arrangement, and what is the ultimate purpose of the people who are hidden in the shadows? Could it be just for you and me to stab the matter of Concubine Shu's underground palace to the monarch, and then Concubine Shu and the Li family will destroy ...... of it."

She didn't say those two words in the end, but she understood it lightly, and his increasingly white and cold look finally showed the same fear and worry in his heart.

One glory and one loss, this is the secret of the long-term survival of everyone in the Shi clan, but it is also the sorrow of all of them.

"Brother, who told you that the Qingming thief is Hua Xiangrong, can you tell me now?"

"I don't know, but on the way back to the inn on the night, suddenly someone shot this piece of paper on the table, and by the time I chased it out, I couldn't find any trace of the person."

Qingmin put his hand into his chest, took out a piece of paper, and handed it to Qingyan's hand.

Qingyan opened it, and a sentence was written in crooked handwriting, and this word was deliberately written like this at first glance, in case they recognized it.

It's really cunning!

Qingyan looked coldly, thinking that he was just retreating, and when did he get into the cage that others had already laid out, and this pile was really seamless.

I have to admire the person who secretly designed all this.

Bi Qing was the first to find Yuedong coming out of the gray face inside, and Qingyan was called back to his senses.
