Chapter 262: If you dare, I dare
Ximen Hao's gaze was extremely penetrating, as if he wanted to see through Li Bing's thoughts,
Li Bing kept a wooden expressionless face, and arched his hand, "The humble position is also to appease the princess, and the humble position believes that with the prince here, he will definitely be able to find the princess,"
"Yes, this king must find Su Ran's painting, and he will not hesitate to anger his father," Ximen Hao's cold eyes stared at the endless dark night,
This time, he asked for a holy decree to thoroughly inspect the palace, although the emperor readily agreed on the surface, in fact, there was a strong invisible confrontation between him and the emperor, because he had no scruples to suspect the emperor, which was great disrespect and publicity.
However, the heart of looking for Su Ran's painting overshadowed all the evasions, Ximen Hao knew that Ximen Xianchu gave a holy decree so refreshingly, if he wasn't really bright, it could only mean that Su Ran's painting was no longer in the palace, but he believed that as long as the search was thorough, he would be able to find clues.
"Heh, the imperial brother is fast, he has already obtained the holy decree," Ximen Yi also entered the palace overnight after arranging for his people to search for Su Ran's paintings.
"My princess is gone, I naturally care about it," Ximen Hao glanced at Ximen Yi, guessing the purpose of his entry into the palace,
"If the imperial brother really cares, the imperial sister-in-law will not be brought into the palace by me," Ximen Yi walked up to Ximen Hao and said in a low voice, with a light smile on his lips,
"I'll talk about the previous things until I find someone," Ximen Hao glanced at Ximen Yi coldly,
"Brother Huang, let's make a bet," Ximen Yi smiled,
"What do you want to bet on," Ximen Hao asked,
"Let's see which of us finds the imperial sister-in-law first," Ximen Yi glanced at the holy decree in Ximen Hao's hand, "You have the holy decree, I will contribute, how,"
"Do you know the weight of this decree," asked Simon Hao, raising the decree,
"But it's just offended my father, the imperial brother is not afraid, the younger brother is naturally not afraid, as long as the person can be found safely and soundly, the younger brother is willing to serve, anyway, the father and the emperor also know that I brought the imperial sister-in-law into the palace, and it will be inevitable to blame when the time comes," Ximen Yi said,
"Isn't your guts," Ximen Hao stared at Ximen Yi intently, curled his lips and sneered, "You don't have to ask Concubine Shuniang,"
When it came to Concubine Shu, Ximen Yi's body was slightly stiff, he knew that Ximen Hao was deliberately exposing his shortcomings, but this time he deliberately avoided Concubine Shu to see Ximen Hao.
"Brother Huang, I'm not the fourth emperor brother, but I'm also the king of the south who is as famous as you," Ximen Yi's tone increased, and he stood tall in front of Ximen Hao, facing him,
"Well, how do you want to bet," Ximen Hao asked,
"If I find the imperial sister-in-law first, the imperial brother will not be allowed to interfere with the dealings between me and the imperial sister-in-law in the future," Ximen Yi said,
"Are you taking the opportunity to take it by force," Ximen Hao didn't expect Ximen Yi to be able to say his delusions about Su Ran's paintings so directly, and wanted to justify their secret dealings, and smiled coldly, "If you can withstand the judgment of the world, and be worthy of your father and concubine, you might as well give it a try,"
"Then try it," Ximen Yi smiled charmingly, raised his hand elegantly, and ordered the people behind him, "Go to the princess of the north immediately, whoever finds this king first will be rewarded,"
So, in the middle of the night, which was originally silent, the palace was very noisy,
"This child, I really don't know the long and short," when Concubine Shu heard that Ximen Yi followed Ximen Hao to find Su Ranhua, she raised her eyebrows angrily, asked Su Xin to wait and quickly dressed, and hurriedly came to Jinyang Palace to face the saint,
"The concubine asks the emperor to recall the king of the south," Concubine Shu pleaded with Simon Xianchu,
"It's a good thing to find someone, why stop it," Simon Xianchu waved his hand and leaned on the couch calmly,
A Su Dye painting can make the two kings of the north and south who are not in harmony rummage through the palace for her at the same time, it seems that he is not wrong to use a thread for her, and her role between the two of them is not ordinary.
"Your Majesty," Concubine Shu anxiously shouted, a thorough investigation of the palace is to search the emperor's territory, if there is not something very urgent, it is absolutely impossible, if it is to protect the emperor's safety and search for people who are not good for the emperor, at this time they are wearing the hat of listing the emperor as a suspect, and they are doing things with great fanfare, which is a crime against the sky,
If you find someone, but if you can't find it, you will return empty-handed, and you will have something to do with them.
"If they have the guts, let them do it," Simon Xianchu waved his hand, and he could not see any of his thoughts on his calm face, but the words he said had a deep meaning,
"Li Huwei, why did this rockery fall," Ximen Hao came to the Imperial Garden, looked at a collapsed rockery and asked,
Li Bing knew that it was in order to cover up the entrance to the secret passage that he had destroyed with his own hands, that he had collapsed the entire rockery.
"Maybe it's because it's been a long time, and after dawn I will find someone to repair it," Li Bingdao,
"This rockery is very strange, you might as well clean up the stones and take a look," Ximen Yi said and ordered someone to move the stones.
"Lord Wang, it's just a pile of rocks," Li Bing said,
"Look," Ximen Hao ignored Li Bing's words, and asked his people to start cleaning the stones.
Soon, the rubble was cleared, revealing a cave,
"Sure enough, there is another mystery," Ximen Yi jumped in first,
When the acupuncture hole was revealed, Ximen Hao had already thought of some questions, and followed Ximen Yi into the secret passage to prove the doubts in his heart.
"Where is this," Following the secret passage, Ximen Yi and Ximen Hao walked to the secret room that had been opened a long time ago.
Ximen Hao turned around and looked at Li Bing, who was silent all the way, "Escort Li, don't you have anything to say?"
"Back to the prince, I really don't know the existence of this secret passage, but according to the judgment of the humble position, this secret room should be under the Jinyang Palace," Li Bing said, reminding them of their location at this time, which is not trivial.
"That's right," Ximen Hao said, lighting the fire, looking up at the top of the secret room,
When he investigated the design of the Bai family, there were a number of people who might know that they had not found their whereabouts, and those people also came to Jinyang Palace more often, and it seemed that their mysterious disappearance had a great relationship with the secret room under Jinyang Palace.
"Jinyang Palace," Ximen Yi naturally realized that their location at this time was extraordinary, but he misunderstood the meaning of Ximen Hao's "right", and mistakenly thought that Ximen Hao was talking about the subject of Su Ran's painting.
However, Ximen Hao was also wondering if the last discovered secret passage would bring any clues when the entire palace was nowhere to be found.
Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger was the first means that Ximen Hao thought of, and he decided to knock on the mountain of Jinyang Palace.
"Do you dare," Ximen Hao looked at Ximen Yi and smiled meaningfully,
"If you dare, I dare," Ximen Yi looked up at the top, this time he must not lose to Ximen Hao,
