Chapter 154: The Secret Passage of the Palace
The warm pavilion on the right side of the outer study is the place where King Qin rests on weekdays, and there are clothes and books he usually wears inside, compared to the East Warm Pavilion in Jiyue Courtyard, the breath of life here is obviously more sufficient, Gu Qingyi even saw a military book at the bedside, it should be that King Qin had no time to read it before going to bed and put it back in its original place.
King Qin also noticed Gu Qingyi's gaze, and hurriedly took the military book away and put it on the desk aside, explaining, "I've been resting in the main courtyard for a while, and this king has forgotten to clean up the house." ”
He was strong and full of fire, even if he was covered with a thin quilt in autumn, Gu Qingyi was obviously not good, King Qin took out a quilt from the wardrobe, burned silver charcoal, and opened a small opening in the window to ventilate, he urged, "The hour is not early, the princess should rest early." ”
Gu Qingyi watched King Qin busy, secretly suppressed the incredulity in her heart, obediently lay down on the bed, she looked sideways at King Qin who was standing beside the bed, and asked, "Doesn't the prince rest?" ”
"The king and the guards have something to discuss, the princess will sleep first." King Qin's gaze lingered on her face for a moment, and then quickly moved away, "If there is something, call this king directly." ”
Gu Qingyi could probably guess what King Qin was going to do, and his mood was a little heavy, "Okay, the prince still has injuries on his body, so pay attention to his body." ”
The corners of King Qin's cold and thin lips hooked a pleasant arc, his dark and quiet eyes flashed with bright light, he suddenly leaned over and kissed Gu Qingyi's forehead, and his voice was low and pleasant, "This king listens to the princess." ”
Until King Qin left the warm pavilion, Gu Qingyi couldn't recover from the throbbing of Fang Cai, the room was quiet, she could clearly hear the beating sound of her heart popping, and her cheeks were also very hot, she kept thinking about King Qin's smile at a glance, and the light kiss with warmth, all of which were tugging at her heartstrings, and she couldn't help herself.
She is always vigilant, but she is deeply trapped in the undetectable.
King Qin has become a catastrophe that she can't escape.
King Qin, who left the warm pavilion, still had a smile on his face, just thinking of the princess's delicate appearance looking at him with a blushing face, all worries and apprehensions were swept away, no matter how absurd and bizarre the truth was, she was the princess he would spend his life with in the future, which was enough.
Feng Ming and the others also noticed their master's good mood, and their originally heavy expressions were unconsciously relaxed, King Qin glanced at Feng Ming and decided not to care about his negligence in not cleaning up the bookcase.
Feng Ming didn't know that he had escaped, and reported the situation to himself, "Master, the secret guard has already detected any movement on the other side, and they have already appeared in the house next door to the palace." ”
King Qin regained his condensation and said, "Keep staring." What's going on in the house? ”
"The people have always been as usual, and the Jiang girl in the backyard took a turn in the garden during the day, and after she went back, she made silver to let people inquire about the news of Jiyue Courtyard, and a few other girls heard that you were injured, and they personally boiled a soup to nourish your body and blood to give it to you first."
King Qin's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, "Don't worry about the others, continue to stare at Jiang Yuanyao." ”
"Yes, don't worry, the subordinate she bought is our secret guard, and she won't reveal any other news."
Only then did King Qin nod with satisfaction, and after leaving enough guards to protect the outer study, he returned to the Jiyue Courtyard and began to lure the snake out of the hole.
It was night, the stars were dim, and the night was thick.
Two groups of black-clothed people sat in a stalemate in a room, although they were both dressed in black, but the details were completely different, one of them was a group of stout black-clothed people with brown scarves, and one of them seemed to be the leader and said, "Do you really have a way to enter the Qin Palace?" ”
His official accent is thick, not like the people of the Central Plains, and looking at their thick hair exposed, it is similar to the Huns who have only recently entered Beijing.
Another wave of black-clothed people wore scarves of the same color, although they were not very stout, they were all tall and strong, and the black-clothed people at the head were full of confidence and calmness in their eyes, "You can rest assured, our master's ability is the second, and no one dares to say the first." When we receive the notice from the internal response, we will be able to enter the Qin Palace. ”
One of the brown turbans asked, "Who is your master?" ”
The black-clothed man's pupils shrank, and before he could get angry, the brown leader angrily scolded his subordinates, "Shut up! Then he threw his hand towards the other party, "My subordinates don't understand the rules, please forgive me." ”
The man in black smiled, "Those who don't know are not guilty, we are gathered here for a common purpose, and we are also friends." After tonight, they will go their separate ways, and they have nothing to do with each other, and everyone should not be tempted about each other's details. ”
"It's nature."
After a brief conversation, there was a deathly silence, the air filled with tension, and the smoke seemed to be on the verge of erupting. Suddenly, there was a sound of three long and two short beatings in the room, and the brown turban man suddenly straightened up, his eyes showed murderous intent, and he put his hands on the waist knife in unison, and entered the state of preparation for battle.
The man in black pressed his hand and smiled lightly, "Don't be afraid, everyone, this is our internal signal. ”
Saying that, he walked to the bookshelf next to him and turned the vase, and the wall where the sound came from actually magically split, and out of it came a woman with a gorgeous appearance, if the people from the Qin Wangfu were here, they would definitely be surprised, because this woman was not someone else, it was Jiang Yuanyao.
The young men in the room showed a look of amazement, Jiang Yuanyao's brows were slightly imperceptible, this disgust was quickly covered by her, she looked at the leader of the black-clothed people, and said softly, "My lord, King Qin and Princess Qin have turned off the lights and rested, and they can act." ”
"Good!" The black-clothed man's hand wiped Jiang Yuanyao's tender face like a chicken, and said with a smile, "Miss Jiang has assisted meritorious, I will definitely speak for you in front of the master." ”
Jiang Yuanyao lowered her eyelids, walked back to the secret passage without a trace, and said softly, "Gentlemen, come with me, this is the secret passage to the Qin Palace, and the exit of the secret passage is in the little woman's room, and there are not many people in the backyard, so no one will notice." ”
The man in black nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Have you found out the patrol schedule and rules of the guards of the Qin Palace?" ”
"The guards change every half an hour, and there is a quarter of an hour between them, which can make it easier for the adults to move."
The man in black pondered for a long time and asked, "Is the news reliable?" ”
A touch of displeasure flashed on Jiang Yuanyao's face, "Don't worry, my lord, the news is sure to be true." The relatives of the palace guards who told the little girl the news, they sold themselves into slavery and had a humble status, but their relatives were high-ranking guards and had always been jealous, and the little woman was able to find out the news from the other party with a little means. ”
Jiang Yuanyao couldn't understand the horror of jealousy, as long as he gave it space and nutrients to grow, and then used it, it was enough to achieve a surprise effect.
"Then you heard that the bodies of those assassins were locked up in the palace dungeon, and you also learned about it from the other party?"
"Yes, the guard came home drinking at night and accidentally said it." Seeing that the man in black began to frown, knowing that he was doubting his credibility, Jiang Yuanyao hurriedly added, "The guard was talking privately with his wife in the room, and it was her wife who felt that her husband was too unlucky to carry the dead, and entrusted someone to find Ai Ye, so she revealed the clue." ”
The eyebrows of the man in black soothed, and he should have believed it completely.
The brown turban man, who had been silent, finally couldn't hold back his mouth and asked, "This girl, do you know where the dungeon is?" How can we get in? ”
He didn't know the purpose of the black-clothed man entering the Qin Palace, but his goal was very clear, that is, to steal the corpses of the assassins who were brought back to the Qin Palace, otherwise, based on the physical characteristics of those people, the Qin Palace's Mansion would easily suspect them.
Jiang Yuanyao glanced at them, and had probably guessed their identities, and his voice was faint, "The dungeon of King Qin's Mansion is in the garden, and there is no one guarding it on weekdays, but the entrance is very secret, and I haven't been able to find it so far. ”
The brown turban man suddenly fell silent, and the trouble in his eyes could be glimpsed from the glimmer of the secret passage, obviously not thinking that they would be able to successfully find the entrance to the dungeon, and immediately looked at the man in black expectantly, "Your Excellency also wants to find your people, how about we join forces to find it?" ”
Since they are exploring the dungeon, they should also destroy the evidence.
