Chapter 491: Climbing the Relationship
This secret passage is very simple, and a layer of stone slurry is applied around it to prevent any clods from falling off and destroying the secret passage.
"What are you doing with nothing to do in the secret path?" Feng Yunxi took a few steps forward, and saw secret passages extending in all directions, obviously this had formed a secret passage network.
"It's not me who wants to build the land, it's my father." Mu Yichen also lit a candle and pulled Feng Yunxi into the secret passage on the far left.
"My father thought that although the formation was good, it had to be arranged, so it would be easy to be discovered, so he sent someone to build this secret passage network to make it easy to quickly reach the place he wanted to go."
The two of them passed through two corners in succession, and walked straight for a long time before they stopped.
At this moment, they had arrived directly below the Zuo family, the two tacitly agreed that they did not speak again, Mu Yichen pointed to the wooden door above his head, and handed the candle to Feng Yunxi.
Climb up the ladder at the entrance of the secret passage by yourself.
After he went up, he pulled Feng Yunxi up again.
Feng Yunxi reached the ground, looked up and looked around, only to see a desolation, which was very different from what he saw when he came to Zuofu this morning.
"This is the former residence of Zuo Jinpei's original wife." Mu Yichen explained.
Twenty years ago, Zuo Jinpei had a wife, who died in this courtyard, and then Zuo Jinpei married another, and after more than ten years, this courtyard was abandoned.
This deserted courtyard is located in the northern corner of Zuofu, and there are few people who come and go, so it is very safe to build a secret passage here.
Like the Chu family, most of the servants in Zuofu entertained guests in the front hall, so the two of them went out of the courtyard, just to avoid it, and they didn't meet anyone.
The two went all the way to Zuo Jinpei's courtyard, where there was still a nursing home to take care of.
The two went around to the back of the courtyard and took the opportunity to climb over the wall and enter the courtyard.
Probably because Zuo Jinpei was too vigilant, and there were many guards outside the courtyard, but the courtyard was empty, and it was estimated that he couldn't even trust his own guards.
Mu Yichen released his spiritual power and searched the courtyard, but found that no one existed.
He frowned slightly, "Go to the study and have a look." β
Even if there is no one, since it is here, it is still such a good time, and you can't just go home.
Because there was no one in the courtyard, the two of them just relaxed their steps and entered the study.
There was still incense burning in the study, and it looked like it hadn't been lit for a long time.
Feng Yunxi walked over and opened the lid of the incense burner to see the amount of spices left inside, "There are still people here." β
According to the amount of remaining spices, when the spices were lit, Zuo Jinpei was still exchanging Geng posts with them in the front hall for Chu Ziyu and Zuo Qingdie.
If the master is not there, the subordinates of the Zuo family will definitely not light the incense, only it may be someone else.
"Indeed." Mu Yichen saw that it was diagonally inserted into a pillar behind a curtain, and a note was firmly tied by a dart.
That angle happened to be Feng Yunxi's blind spot, but it was within Mu Yichen's field of vision.
He pulled the dart and opened the note to look at it.
"Long time no seeβFeng Shaoli!" Feng Yunxi stood beside Mu Yichen and read out the words on the note.
She also found that the ink on the paper had not completely dried, and her brows frowned slightly, "Feng Shaoli just left." β
Mu Yichen's eyes were dark, and he put the note and darts into the storage ring, and then a wicked smile appeared on his face, "To be able to get on the line with Feng Shaoli, Zuo Jinpei also has the means." β
After he came back, he checked about Feng Shaoli, and after checking, he found out that Feng Shaoli had already returned to Bai Yalan many years ago, and stayed in Dongchen from beginning to end for the sake of Huang Li, who had not yet hatched.
