Chapter 488: The Secret of the City Lord's Mansion

At this time, Hua Qing had already sneaked into the city lord's mansion by night, because the willow trees around the Guan family were uprooted by Guan Xu, Hua Qing had no way to enter the Guan family directly.

Therefore, her first target was the City Lord's Mansion, hoping to find any useful information in the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord's Mansion was also relatively close to the Liuyu Mountain Range.

There is no way for her to investigate the Guan family in person, so she can only go to Xiao Chun and Han Xia tomorrow to let them do it for her, and at the same time, she can also go to see the situation of Caiyun.

The night is deep and quiet.

The lights in the City Lord's Mansion were bright, and it was already past midnight at this time, so there were no more people in the entire City Lord's Mansion except for the guards and patrols.

Hua Qing had inquired about the latest situation of the fallen city before, and only then did she come to the City Lord's Mansion in the middle of the night, this time was the time for everyone to fall asleep, and it was just right for her to sneak in.

By the moonlight, Hua Qing sneaked into the tallest tree on the periphery of the City Lord's Mansion, hidden in the trunk of the tree, and looked inside from a distance.

From the height, the City Lord's Mansion is in a square shape, and the periphery is the high wall of the City Lord's Mansion, and outside the high wall, there are some heavily guarded guards, some patrolling around, and some hidden in the dark.

Because Hua Qing's cultivation is profound, and his speed is like the wind, he was not discovered by those people.

Near the high wall, there are some pavilions, including rockeries and artificial lakes, to the south, is the residence of the guards, and on the opposite side, is the residence of the servants of the city lord's mansion, isolated by the high wall.

At the same time, they also guard the internal perimeter security of the City Lord's Mansion.

In the middle, there is the watchtower at the highest point of the fallen city, on which soldiers in silver armor walk around, always controlling the situation around the city lord's mansion.

The watchtower is divided into south, east, west, and northwest directions, and there is not a single omission in all directions.

In the event of any anomaly, those soldiers in the high ground were able to send out a message as soon as possible.

Further inside, the four conveniences are built in an antique and antique house, and the main residents are the high-level personnel of the city lord's mansion, such as Luo Ying, Chen Qian, Ma Qingshan and other family members.

The outer soldiers guarded the perimeter security of the City Lord's Mansion, and these high-ranking personnel of the City Lord's Mansion, plus their personal guards, protected the inner perimeter of the City Lord's Mansion.

Under the moonlight, the small bridge was rippling, and Hua Qing set his eyes on the most central position of the City Lord's Mansion.

Living there are Du Ling, the eldest lady of the city lord Luoting, the second lady Song Ya, and the third lady Guan Qingmei, as well as their personal maids.

Next to a huge courtyard is the city lord's apartment.

Among them, the middle of the City Lord's Mansion, and the middle of this huge building, is the private territory of the City Lord Luo Ting, and no one dares to enter without his order.

There are no fewer guards patrolling here than outside the City Lord's Mansion!

The building in the middle resembles an enlarged pyramid, except that the top is not so sharp.

The building has five floors, with no windows on all sides, and the only lowest floor has a gate for entry and exit.

On top of the copper wall, there are some small holes that have no rules to follow, the largest hole is the size of an adult's fist, and some are only the size of an egg.

Hua Qing squinted and looked at it, and could understand at a glance that the main function of those small holes was to allow indoor air circulation.

After observing for a long time, Hua Qing was disappointed, it seemed that the copper wall was impregnable, and she couldn't get in for a while.

If violence is used, I am afraid that it will cause great turmoil, and then it will inevitably be a lot of trouble.

The guards around her, she wasn't sure she could solve them all at once.

Hua Qing looked at it, smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart: "Luo Ting is indeed more cautious than his ancestors, just this conspicuous copper wall, no one dares to break in." ”

Thinking about it like this, she was sure that there really were many secrets that no one knew in this sealed space.

When saving Guan Ting, the first generation of the Guan family, Hua Qing was bored to come to see the City Lord's Mansion back then, and at that time, the area of the City Lord's Mansion was still one-third of what it is now.

There must be some secret in this, according to Hua Qing's character, she will naturally not give up, but she will not act rashly.

For today's plan, it is better to get the detailed map of the City Lord's Mansion first, and then Hua Qing will have a foolproof strategy.

With his mind decided, Hua Qing took advantage of the fading moonlight to quietly jump from the treetop to the flowers next to him, and then disappeared with one more dodge.

A gust of incense blew through, and the guard closest to Hua Qing looked back in shock, only to feel that there was a wind blowing behind him, but when he looked closely, there was nothing.

When the other guard saw this, he also walked over from the side and asked, but the two did not dare to be careless, so they began to patrol everywhere.

But there was still nothing, and the man felt that he was wrong, so he had no choice but to give up.

After a false alarm, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief, and finally leaned together and said some filthy words.

At this time, Hua Qing had already left and went to the inn where Xiao Chun Hanxia was.

In the night, only Hua Qing's figure kept moving, like a ghost, and the watchman only felt that his head suddenly turned black, and when he looked up, he only saw Hua Qing flying over, startled night birds.

Half an hour later, Hua Qing finally arrived at the inn where Xiao Chun Hanxia was.

This inn is not far from the City Lord's Mansion and not far from the Guan family, so it is the best place to stay.

The inn is opened to Xiu'er, the childhood sweetheart of Zhongguan, here, Xiao Chun Hanxia and Xiu'er get along very well, and from time to time, they can also get the latest developments in the city from Xiu'er's mouth.

Xiang Zhongguan was secretly doing things for Xiao Chun Hanxia, Xiu'er knew it, and she was a little opposed at first, but in the end, seeing that Xiao Chun Hanxia was good, she also began to help them.

Regarding the rumors about Xiang Zhongguan, Xiu'er has heard about it, and she is entangled in her heart, and now she can help Xiao Chun Hanxia do good deeds, she feels that she is forgiving her sins for Xiang Zhongguan.

Childhood sweethearts, they grew up together, and they are middle-hearted, Xiu'er knows best, but fortunately, he has been changing recently, which makes Xiu'er feel a lot more at ease.

The place where Xiao Chun Hanxia is located is the highest point of this inn, and on this floor, there are a total of twelve rooms, of which four rooms in the south, east, and northwest can observe the situation around the city.

These four houses were all given to Xiao Chun Hanxia, and at the same time, there was also a room for them to rest, and at the same time, in the next room, it was specially reserved for Song Ao and Xiang Zhongguan, who were waiting to be summoned.

So in this inn, Xiao Chun and Hanxia occupied six rooms, and in order not to be noticed, Xiu'er would let her subordinates clean it from time to time.

Xiu'er knew that what they were doing was to stop the infighting in the city, so naturally, she fully supported it.

At this time, Han Xia was observing the situation at the inn opposite the Guan family and the City Lord's Mansion, and she found out when Hua Qing first appeared.

Then she left the room and went back to their original house, telling Xiao Chun about the situation.

Xiao Chun was taking care of Caiyun, and when she heard Han Xia's words, she knew who was coming, so the two went downstairs together.

After a while, Hua Qing was greeted by the two girls, and when she saw someone coming, Xiu'er woke up and made tea for the three of them.
