Chapter 154: The Secret Passage

Early the next morning.

Chu Mo got up early and came to the back garden to practice martial arts, since he came to Kyoto, because of those trivial things, Chu Mo seems to have been abandoned for a long time for martial arts.

After this trip to Qingzhou, after joining hands with the masters of the two Nine Rank Realms, Chu Mo also realized the shortcomings of his martial arts.

Although he was also a master of the Nine Rank Realm, if he hadn't been opportunistic these two times, how could he have killed Zhao Hu and the master of the Sword Rain Tower.

"Why did you wake up so early today?"

Wen Qingyuan's voice came, Chu Mo had no choice but to take his work, and turned to look at Wen Qingyuan, who was walking slowly.

"Why are you here?"

Chu Mo stepped forward with a smile and gently hugged Wen Qingyuan in his arms. And when Chu Mo looked at the people standing not far away, seemingly carrying some silk silk in his hand, Chu Mo said, "Is this going somewhere?" ”

"Recently, there have been a lot of things in the palace, and my father was arranged by His Majesty to review some twists and turns in the palace, and my mother was afraid that she would be lonely at home, so I wanted to accompany her."

Chu Mo nodded,

"I'm with you."

"Good!"

Chu Mo was willing to go, and Wen Qingyuan was naturally happy.

Subsequently, Chu Mo instructed Yu Zixuan to prepare the carriage, and after Chu Mo prepared some gifts, the two returned to the Taishi Mansion together.

Wen Qingyuan got married, Wen Zijin served in the palace again, and because of the busy government affairs, Wen Haoxuan would also live in the palace for the next two days, which made the original family of four a little deserted.

"Mother!"

"Mother-in-law!"

Walking into the Taishi Mansion, Chu Mo and Wen Qingyuan saw the Fu clan in the courtyard, and the two immediately stepped forward to bow their hands.

"Why are you two here?"

Seeing the two of them, a smile appeared on Fu's face, Wen Qingyuan hurriedly stepped forward to hold Fu's arm, and said coquettishly: "Isn't this coming back to accompany my mother." ”

"Hehe, okay, just come back. I haven't had breakfast yet, so I'll prepare some for my mother's dining room. ”

Afterwards, the three of them moved to the dining hall, and after breakfast, Fu Shi pulled Wen Qingyuan back to the room, and as for Chu Mo, Fu Shi let him go around the mansion by himself.

The two mothers and daughters hadn't seen each other for a long time, so naturally they had a lot to say, and Chu Mo didn't bother the two of them, and went to the backyard alone.

"Uncle."

"Uncle."

……

In the backyard, many servants in the mansion were busy before and after, watching Chu Mo arrive, everyone also bowed down one by one, and Chu Mo nodded in response.

After a while, Chu Mo came to Wen Haoxuan's study and stopped.

After glancing around, and finding that there was no one else, Chu Mo immediately stepped forward and pushed open the door and walked in.

This was not the first time he had entered Wen Haoxuan's study, and the study was still so neat. Walking forward slowly, Chu Mo came to a bookshelf, and then took down a book and flipped through it.

After a while, he put the book back into the distance and took down another book again.

These books are all poetry collections, and they are not interested in these Chu Mo. And just when Chu Mo put the book back in its place and was about to turn around and leave, inadvertently when he lowered his head, Chu Mo was surprised to find something.

The whole room was so neat, and it was because of this neatness that Chu Mo found the scratch mark under the bookshelf.

Squatting down, he touched the scratch mark behind him, and Chu Mo dared to conclude that this mark was formed by moving the bookshelf frequently.

Thinking of this, Chu Mo's eyes froze.

There is a trap!

Standing up slowly, with his hands on both sides of the bookshelf, Chu Mo gently moved the bookshelf to the side, and sure enough, at the moment when the bookshelf was moved by Chu Mo, he saw that the wall behind the bookshelf actually made a piercing friction sound.

"Sure enough!"

Chu Mo looked at the pitch-black entrance in front of him and walked forward slowly, but he didn't enter it, looking at the layer of negligible white powder on the ground of the entrance, Chu Mo also had to admire Wen Haoxuan's meticulous thoughts.

If ordinary people had seen this secret passage, they would have already entered it, and where would they pay so much attention. And once inside, the intruder's footprints will inevitably appear on this white powder, and Wen Haoxuan can see it at a glance as long as he opens this mechanism.

Taking a few steps back, Chu Mo moved the bookshelf back to its original position, and then after carefully checking it to make sure that there were no clues left, he clapped his hands and left the study.

Although he was curious about why there was a secret room in Wen Haoxuan's study, Chu Mo did not go to find out at this time.

For Chu Mo, the coming day is long!

It was noon fast.

At Fu's strong request, Chu Mo and the two stayed in the mansion and had lunch together. Then Chu Mo left the Taishi Mansion with Wen Qingyuan on the grounds that there was something.

Back at the Shizi Mansion, Chu Mo informed Yu Zixuan of what he had discovered in the Taishi Mansion, recalling what Shen Simiao said at the beginning, and adding today's discovery, Chu Mo couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the collapse of the Beiliang Mansion really had something to do with his father-in-law?

Even if it doesn't matter, my father-in-law probably knows some of the inside stories of the year.

"Young master, do you need to investigate?"

Yu Zixuan looked at Chu Mo, who frowned slightly, and asked cautiously,

"No, you don't! I'm free to do that. Yes, Wushuang has been going to the lockdown for a while, has there been any news recently? ”

Chu Mo changed his words and asked.

"There is news, Wushuang has found the clues of the tragedy of the closure of the city ten years ago, although the people who knew about the events of the year have been wiped out, but the road of the heavens, under the investigation of Wushuang, it was finally determined that the person who knew about the incident back then, and two people escaped, Wushuang came with news yesterday, saying that he would bring people back to Kyoto immediately."

Hearing this, Chu Mo nodded.

"It will take three days to return to Kyoto from lockdown, and these two are crucial to our plans, so if something happens on the way, you should go and join Wushuang immediately."

Chu Mo said with a solemn face.

"Yes! By the way, the young master, Tianyi also sent news, saying that the matter of Thirty-six Villages has been almost dealt with. ”

Chu Mo nodded, and then waved his hand.

Yu Zixuan clenched his fists and bowed and slowly exited the room.

The golden wuxi falls, and night falls.

Wen Haoxuan, who had been busy all day, took a carriage back to Taishi's Mansion.

After having dinner with Fu Shi, Wen Haoxuan returned to the study.

Closing the door and going straight to the bookshelf, when Wen Haoxuan was just about to remove the bookshelf and open the secret passage, suddenly, Wen Haoxuan's eyes fell on the neatly arranged books on the bookshelf.

Wen Haoxuan's eyes suddenly froze, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes.

Someone has touched the books on the shelves!

Wen Haoxuan's face changed, and he hurriedly removed the bookshelf, and glanced at the white powder on the ground at the entrance, but there was no trace of anyone entering, Wen Haoxuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief......
