Chapter 6: The Secret Passage

Wen Nianqing was just about to leave, when she glanced at the bird's nest porridge on the table, hesitated, picked up a pen and wrote a note and pressed it under the porridge: There is something important in the palace, go and go back, don't report to Your Majesty, if Your Majesty asks, hide it! Wen Nianqing looked at the paper with satisfaction, thinking that Mei Yun would definitely talk to herself with a bitter face when she saw this paper. Wen Nianqing smiled lightly, pushed the door and left.

Wen Nianqing walked all the way, she was already young, and she lowered her head, and when others saw her, they only thought that she was a new palace maid, and they didn't pay attention. Wen Nianqing relied on her memory to touch an inconspicuous room and walked in.

The house was full of ash because no one had come for too long, and Wen Nianqing opened the door and blew for a while, choking and coughing. Wen Nianqing walked deeper, the beams in the house were covered with cobwebs, and Wen Nianqing had a headache when he looked at the house that had obviously been abandoned for a long time. The queen mother's Fengqi Hall must have been strengthened, and the guards couldn't enter at all, only this place could enter. In her previous life, she also knew by chance that there was another entrance, and it was not easy for her to find it from memory, and the thick ash of this room covered a lot of things, which had to be touched one by one...... Wen Nianqing sighed and walked towards the place with the most cobwebs in the room.

Wen Nianqing brushed aside the cobwebs hanging from the room, and frowned tightly, there are too many doubts in this house, the house has only been idle for a few years at most, how can it be that the cobwebs are hanging to the ground, and a thick layer of ash has accumulated, this is in the palace, which palace maid dares to be so lazy, obviously someone deliberately did it, and did not want others to know about this place. At least the person in charge of the harem must allow it, and the queen mother died, and now Zhang Guifei is in charge. Concubine Zhang Guifei has always been at odds with the queen mother, and it is impossible for her to be busy with the affairs of the queen mother's secret room.

Wen Nianqing thought about it again and again while groping, and as soon as Wen Nianqing figured out something, she heard a "click" and opened a hole in the wall behind the cobweb. Wen Nianqing looked at the hole speechlessly, adults may squeeze if they climb in, but fortunately, he is only 7 years old now, and he can still climb in.

Wen Nianqing looked at the ash all over the ground, thought about the scorpion on his left arm again, gritted his teeth and climbed in.

After Wen Nianqing entered, she patted the dust on her body, groped on the wall for a while, touched a bulge, pressed it, and the door closed in response. There were no torches in the secret passage, it was pitch black, Wen Nianqing took a deep breath, and took out the large night pearl that had been prepared long ago from his bag to illuminate it. With the faint light of the night pearl, Wen Nianqing groped her way forward, I don't know if there are not many people coming on this road, not to mention snakes along the way, not even a small insect is missing. She rubbed the wall hard with her sleeve, and there was not even a trace of dust...... Wen Nianqing pondered with her eyebrows, obviously a lot of poisonous insects flew out last time she came, there were a lot of spider webs in the corner of the wall, and there was even a poisonous snake that came out of nowhere and bit her, almost killing her. She watched carefully as she walked, and the smoother the process, the more uneasy and doubtful she became.

Won't it ...... It has something to do with the scorpion on the left arm......

As soon as this idea came out, Wen Nianqing herself was taken aback, but she couldn't think of any other reason. It stands to reason that the more crowded the place, the more poisonous insects should be, and it is impossible to have no ashes! If you think about it, you don't think it's right, it's just a tattoo, what use can it be.

Thinking about it, she turned a corner, Wen Nianqing's eyes suddenly brightened, she narrowed her eyes uncomfortably, raised her arm to block the light, and then, she felt a cool thing against her neck.
