Chapter 206: Royal Privacy

Qin Chongzhou probably checked it: "There is no useful information left."

Zhao Chengxi casually flipped through the paper left on the table: "Tanglin map, Jingling City map, imperial palace map, forbidden army change map, summer resort map, border map......"

Zhao Chengxi sneered: "The wolf's ambition is obvious."

After everyone searched carefully, they found nothing, and when they were about to turn back, Zhao Chengxi's eyes fell somewhere, and said: "Wait, I always feel that something is wrong, let me see ......"

Zhao Chengxi's eyes wandered on all kinds of ornaments, and he said: "The objects placed here are all rare boutiques, but this ......"

Zhao Chengxi stopped, his eyes locked on an inconspicuous jade carving in the corner of the shelf.

Zhao Chengxi held his cheeks and said, "I haven't even seen this jade material......

"Could it be that this jade carving is even more superb?" Qin Yan asked.

"This jade jade carving looks ordinary." Qin Chongzhou is not good at appreciating treasures, and he can't see anything special for a while.

"I mean, I've never seen such an inferior jadeite, I'm afraid I'm afraid I've been deceived by a stall vendor." Zhao Chengxi sneered unceremoniously, and then turned into a pride in knowing everything, "Otherwise, it's deliberate." Either I am reluctant to use a good baby as a mechanism, or I want to reduce my sense of existence, so as not to be noticed, but unfortunately I still can't escape my eyes. ”

Zhao Chengxi tried to pick up the jade carving: "Sure enough, I can't pick it up."

Zhao Chengxi tried to turn to the right, and with the sound of several gears turning, a bookcase slowly moved away, revealing another secret room.

Everyone looked at each other and stepped forward.

"This is a secret room...... Another study? Zhao Chengxi saw a large desk in the middle at a glance, with pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the side.

"It's more like a painting room." Qin Chongzhou looked at the portraits hanging on the four walls.

Qin Yan took out the fire fold and lit the candles everywhere, and everyone saw that the portraits of women hanging on the walls were still the same woman.

"This seems to be Mrs. Chu." Qin Yan saw it clearly and said, "It doesn't feel very similar, it may be when Mrs. Chu was young." ”

Qin Yan remembered the appearance of Mrs. Chu's hair last night, and he was quite disgusted, could it be that people become so ugly when they get old?

"Looking at the fineness of this method, even the hair strands drawn by the cloud sideburns are distinct, which shows that the effort has been made." Qin Chongzhou can feel Zhao Zhangmou's affection for the person in the painting from this painting.

Qin Yan was puzzled: "Then why didn't King Yue take Mrs. Chu away?"

Zhao Chengxi, who stopped in front of a painting for a long time, but was rarely silent, slowly spoke: "Because this painting is not Chu Lian."

Qin Chongzhou sensed that Zhao Chengxi's mood was wrong, and leaned closer and asked, "Xi'er?"

Qin Chongzhou stretched out his hand to hold Zhao Chengxi's little hand, but he only felt a chill.

Zhao Chengxi's tone was low: "Look at the jade pendant tied around the waist of the person in the painting...... I'm all too familiar with it...... The person in this painting is ...... It's the queen mother......"

Qin Chongzhou's breath stagnated, and he clenched the cold soft wattle in his hand, and whispered comfort in Zhao Chengxi's ear: "Xi'er, don't think about it first, let's go out and ask Chu Lian well."

Zhao Chengxi closed his eyes and forced himself to calm down, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already clear.

Now is not the time for emotion.

Zhao Chengxi pinched Qin Chongzhou's fingers, signaled that he was fine, and then walked to the desk and sat down, looking at the things on the table.

There was blank drawing paper on the table, and Zhao Chengxi stretched out his hand to the painting jar next to him. The scrolls of the painting jar are also all kinds of portraits, and there is nothing special to find.

"Zhao Zhangmou!"

Zhao Zhangmou dared to think differently about his younger siblings and the queen, and he couldn't bear it.

Zhao Chengxi was in a hurry for a while, and with a strain in his hand, the painting jar burst to the ground with a bang, and the picture scroll was scattered all over the ground.

"Chang Yi, burn all these portraits, and you can't leave any scraps of paper." Zhao Chengxi said coldly.

"Subordinates obey."

Zhao Chengxi was about to leave, but he heard Qin Chongzhou say: "The painting cylinder has a mezzanine."

Qin Chongzhou bent down and took out a stack of letters from the cracked painting jar.

Qin Chongzhou glanced at it roughly: "It's the correspondence between King Yue and the ministers of the court and the ugly affairs of the ministers, it seems that King Yue is using this to blackmail them."

"It was a bonus." Zhao Chengxi finally got some gains, "Then let's go out." ”

Zhao Chengxi was about to go back, but Qin Chongzhou said: "According to the direction, this place should be near King Yue's study, and there should be another road."

Qin Chongzhou looked around and said, "Look behind the portrait."

Everyone scattered to search, and sure enough, they found a pull ring behind a portrait, and when they pulled it out, a secret door appeared.

Behind the secret door is a secret passage, and you can see an upward staircase not far away. The group walked up the stairs, and finally walked out of a cabinet in Zhao Zhangmou's study.

"King Yue is really thoughtful." Qin Chongzhou inevitably sighed.

The mystery in Zhao Chengxi's heart urgently needed to be solved, and he couldn't wait to say, "I want to see Chu Lian."

Because this is also a royal private matter, it is inconvenient for Qin Chongzhou to be present, only Chang Yi stayed to protect Zhao Chengxi.

Chu Lian knelt on the ground, the day's fear made her pale and her eyes were blank, where was Zhao Chengxi's brilliance when she first saw her.

Chu Lian, who has been pampered for many years, has not received this kind of treatment for a long time, but fortunately, her previous experience in the Qinglou has not been forgotten.

Chu Lian looked at Zhao Chengxi who was sitting in front of him with tears in her eyes, and cried sadly: "Miss Bi, it's all our fault, please let us go."

Zhao Chengxi was unmoved, leaned down, and said indifferently: "Shut up, raise your head, and look at me."

Chu Lian was so frightened that she snorted and stopped crying, and her heart palpitated: This girl's family is quite fierce......

Zhao Chengxi carefully studied Chu Lian's outline and facial features.

When she saw Chu Lian for the first time, at first glance she did have a bit of the shadow of the queen mother, but now when she looks closely, her temperament is obviously very different, but she doesn't feel similar.

"Changyi, do you think it looks like it?"

"The subordinates feel that there are six points of similarity." Always be truthful.

"Six?" Zhao Chengxi snorted coldly, full of mockery, "It's hard for you, six points can be a substitute." ”

Chu Lian was in a trance and sat on the ground: "You...... What do you know? Who are you! Do you know that person? ”

Although Chu Lian knew that Zhao Zhangmou had someone hidden in her heart, she could only pretend that nothing happened, and she didn't dare to investigate more. Compared with a man's sincerity, she cares more about the glory and wealth that has been obtained.

"You don't have to know that, you just have to tell me, what do you know? If you dare to hide something, I will not keep the lives of your mother and son. ”
