That night, the clouds were light and the wind was light, the moon was translucent, and the whole house was quiet and peaceful.

In the backyard, straight weeping willows stand quietly on the clean and smooth ground.

Suddenly, a breeze blew in the face, only to make the silk willow that had just begun to sprout tender green shoots swaying with the wind, so uncomfortable.

Through the layers of fresh willow branches that exude vitality, a bright moon can be vaguely seen hanging in the sky.

The bright moonlight shines through the willow trees and then reflects on the clean ground, forming mottled shadows of the trees, shining like stars, which has a unique charm.

Not far in front of these willow trees, there is an artificial lake.

The lake is the "soul" of the backyard, and all the beauty here is built around it.

The lake is oval in shape and has a small area. There is an arch bridge in the lake for everyone to play and enjoy the scenery.

The lake is surrounded by a stone road, and various flowers and plants are planted on both sides of the stone road.

In order to make the scenery pleasant, the people who designed the scenery can be said to have taken great pains.

He deliberately divided these exotic flowers and plants in an orderly manner according to the climate characteristics of the four seasons here, so that the various colorful flowers here achieved the effect of "this is not defeated, and the other has bloomed".

If someone walks on this road, they will be surrounded by all kinds of refreshing and intoxicating floral fragrances. Suddenly, I felt that my body and mind were refreshed and refreshed, as if I was at ease in a no-man's land. so intoxicated that he was reluctant to leave for a long time.

All of this is truly ingenious. That's why it's a place that's alive all year round and the scenery is intoxicating.

No matter when and where, as long as someone stands here, they can appreciate the beauty of their own unique artistic conception.

There is a rockery at the junction of the stone road and the arch bridge, which is used to shield from the sun and serve as the boundary here.

At this moment, two maids are wandering together beside the artificial lake with beautiful scenery and intoxicating artistic conception, whispering and laughing.

Just as the two of them were about to leave and pass through this place, a strange bird that had been resting here suddenly flew out of the cracks in the rockery and let out several piercing wails.

When the maid saw this, she was so shocked that she let out a scream involuntarily.

Fortunately, she reacted in time, so that she quickly covered her mouth with her hand, so as not to disturb others too much.

Just as she was about to leave, she noticed that something seemed to be shining on the ground not far away.

In shock, she first gasped, then patted her chest, and then took the hand of another person and walked slowly.

The maid looked at it fixedly, and it was actually a jade pendant.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that at the moment when the strange bird took off into the air, it seemed that something had fallen from the rockery, and it was this jade pendant.

And just when she was about to hand over this jade pendant to Xiao Qingzhu, another maid on the side was surprised and told her that this was Gongzi's jade pendant.

Therefore, Liu Ruotian has always worn it on his body and often takes it out to play with it, so most people in the house have some impressions of this jade pendant.

Seeing this, the two were shocked and full of doubts. For fear of making a mistake, the two immediately decided to go to Xiao Qingzhu immediately.

After finding Xiao Qingzhu, the two immediately told her about the strange things that had just happened. After listening to their narration, Xiao Qingzhu suddenly felt that this matter was very strange.

Indeed, since this so-called Liu Ruotian returned to the General's Mansion, this strange thing has happened one after another.

Coupled with the various abnormal behaviors he showed, many people have long been suspicious. Not only did Xiao Qingzhu, who was a mother, feel more and more that there was something wrong with this son, but even the maids and servants in the house felt more and more that something was wrong with him.

You must know that although Liu Ruotian was rebellious and undisciplined in the past, he had some minor problems after all, and he didn't do anything too troublesome. And he is only crazy and troublesome on the surface, but in fact he has a gentle temper and a pure temperament, and he gets along well with everyone.

Why did Liu Ruotian become so weird at this moment? Even if you are seriously injured, even if you lose your memory, it is impossible not to have a little shadow of the past, unless......

At the same time, Liu Ruotian, who pretended to sleep peacefully, took advantage of the unpreparedness of others, so he secretly sneaked into Liu Xinyu's study and began to secretly search around.

Liu Ruotian before the amnesia didn't like to come to the study the most, Liu Xinyu used to drag him to come, but he didn't want to come, and even bumped into Liu Xinyu because of these things. I don't know what the reason is for this, but I came uninvited.

On the other hand, the miscellaneous servants in the house noticed that there seemed to be an abnormality in the study and did not dare to trespass, so they quickly reported the matter to Xiao Qingzhu.

After Xiao Qingzhu learned about this, he felt that something was wrong, so he decided to immediately rush to the study to find out.

And just as Xiao Qingzhu hurried to the study, Liu Ruotian, who had been secretly rummaging here, unexpectedly discovered the secret room hidden in the study by himself.

Seeing this, Liu Ruotian was overjoyed.

Just as Liu Ruotian opened the door of the secret room and was about to step into the secret room, the sudden sound of opening the door caught him a little off guard, and then he broke out in a cold sweat.

Liu Ruotian thought to himself, how can this be good......

It is said that Liu Ruotian saw that Xiao Qingzhu was about to come here, and he was more and more overwhelmed.

He had wanted to close the door of the chamber before leaving quickly, but the button he had found was just a device that controlled the door to open. As for how it will be closed, it is unknown.

In desperation, Liu Ruotian could only enter the secret room first and hide and wait for the opportunity.

At this moment, Xiao Qingzhu pushed the door in.

Xiao Qingzhu, who was full of doubts, was shocked when he saw such a scene in the study.

Only she and Liu Xinyu know the location of this secret room, and the device that controls the switch of this secret room is also very elaborate and secretive. Even if something goes wrong, it won't leave the door open so wide.

What worries her even more is that there are not only all kinds of precious gold and silver artifacts, antiques, calligraphy and paintings in this secret room, but also martial arts classics that Liu Xinyu has collected from various places over the years, many of which are excellent skills.

However, these are all things outside the body, and if someone else steals them secretly, there is not much to lose. I'm afraid that the people who enter the room don't want to seek things, but only want to harm people, then it's a big deal.

After all, Liu Xinyu has been an official in the court for so many years, so it is inevitable that he will have contacts with some important ministers and even hostile forces in the court, so as to leave some correspondence and vouchers and other things.

The reason why Liu Xinyu wants to store them so closely here is so that if one day the matter is revealed, he will have a life-saving basis.

And many of these things were secretly withheld after passing through his hands, after all, not everything can be known to others, and not everything can be seen by others.

There is a saying that "it is difficult to be a clean official, and it is difficult to be a good person", and loyal ministers also have their unspeakable hardships.

Thinking of this, Xiao Qingzhu, who was in shock, did not dare to hesitate in the slightest, and decided to enter the secret room to investigate.

Only after letting her enter in person and making sure that it was really foolproof, Xiao Qingzhu's hanging heart could be completely let go.

How did Xiao Qingzhu know that as she entered the secret room to take a closer look, the potential danger was also approaching her step by step.

Because at the same time, Liu Ruotian, who is also in the secret room, doesn't know how long he can hold on, and how to deal with it if he is accidentally discovered?

Just as Xiao Qingzhu was carefully checking whether the various letters were missing, Liu Ruotian, who had been hanging in the air in the secret room before, couldn't hold on a little.

You must know that the area of this secret room is not very large, and the secret passage leading to the secret room is relatively narrow. In addition, there are not many objects to cover here, so it is impossible for anyone to hide here for a long time without being detected.

If you have to hide here, there is only one way, and that is to use the supreme light gong as the basis, supplemented by the method of holding your breath, to make a short stay on the beam of the secret room.

However, in doing so, it will inevitably consume a lot of physical strength of the hidden person. Therefore, this is not a long-term solution, and it is not a wise choice.

How could it be that the situation was suddenly critical at that time, and Liu Ruotian was not very clear about the situation here, otherwise why did it come to such a point?

At this moment, Liu Ruotian was unable to regret it, and said in his heart: If he didn't enter this place at that time, but chose to leave quickly, he would not have ended up in a dilemma. For the sake of today, the only way to do this is to wait and see what happens.

Liu Ruotian was thinking about it, but he didn't know that a bead of sweat was quietly falling to the ground, and then there was a slight sound, and this happened to be noticed by Xiao Qingzhu, who was cleaning up everything in the room.

Just as Xiao Qingzhu wanted to find the source of the sound and approached Liu Ruotian step by step, another bead of sweat quietly rolled down, and then dripped on the back of Xiao Qingzhu's hand impartially.

Seeing this, Xiao Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, and then thought for a moment. Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration, thinking that she had realized something.

Just as Xiao Qingzhu wanted to look up to find out, she was knocked unconscious from behind, and it was Liu Ruotian who knocked her unconscious.

In order to prevent extraneous branches, Liu Ruotian did not dare to stay longer. So he just dealt with it in a hurry and quickly left the scene.

After a while, Xiao Qingzhu woke up from the confusion.

And what made her feel strange was that she didn't seem to remember some of the previous events when she woke up.

I only vaguely remember that the door of the secret room opened inexplicably, and I seemed to have been hit from behind by someone. If you think about it carefully, you will have a splitting headache and no impression at all.

What is certain, however, is that this place has now been targeted.

In order to prevent accidents, Xiao Qingzhu immediately strengthened the guards around the study after carefully inspecting the important items inside and ensuring safety.

Not only has the number of people in charge of security here increased greatly compared to before, but even the entire General's Mansion has been strengthened because of this incident.

In this way, those people with ulterior motives will really have to work hard to engage in any conspiracy and trickery.
