That night, He Ran came to the Jin Palace's Mansion for the second time.

With the experience of the last time, this time He Ran did not take a detour, and she went directly to the Xiuyuan where the old princess lived.

Compared to the last time, the show garden now looks even more barren.

There is a pile of garbage in a corner of the yard, which is also where the old princess lives.

He Ran remembered that the last time she came, the old princess was chanting scriptures in the small Buddha hall, but this time, it was dark in the show garden, and there was no light in the small Buddha hall.

Slept so early?

He Ran endured her curiosity and went to the main house in Xiuyuan, which should be where the old princess lived.

There was also no light in the main room, and He Ran approached the window, holding her breath and listening to the movement inside.

He Ran had received professional training before crossing, her ear power was excellent, the ancient window sealing was not good, and it was such a close distance, when most people were sleeping, the sound of breathing would be heavier than when they were awake, it stands to reason that with her ear power, she could hear some sounds, but there was nothing, and the house and outside were all deadly quiet.

Yes, it is death, the feeling that this garden gives He Ran is lifeless.

He Ran turned around and went to the back cover room where the maids and mothers-in-law lived, the last time I came, there were several mothers-in-law sleeping in the back cover room, but this time, the bed was empty, and there was no one.

He Ran went to the old princess's house again, she took out a dagger and pried open the window, and jumped in directly.

The curtains of the bed hung low, but there was no one on the bed.

He Ran wiped it on the table with his fingers, and rubbed it again, and there was a thick layer of dust on the table.

This house has been uninhabited for a long time.

However, the outside of Xiuyuan is not locked, and the houses are also not locked, although there is garbage piled up in the corner of the yard, but that also shows that there are people cleaning here, at least someone sweeping the yard, but the people who sweep the yard are lazy.

Cai Ying was not in Xiuyuan, but King Jin wanted to make the illusion that she was still here.

I don't even know the nails that Jinghong Tower put in the Jin Palace.

He Ran felt that this matter was a little strange, Xiuyuan was uninhabited, even if the King of Jin concealed the news, but after a long time, people outside did not know, but people in the house would still find clues.

Nails don't even notice this.

Could it be that there is something wrong with the nails?

Or is there something else going on?

He Ran searched around the house, but didn't find anything useful, and even Cai Ying's makeup box didn't have a few valuable heads, and He Ran didn't have the urge to take the sheep by the way.

Even though he knew that there was no one in Xiuyuan now, He Ran was still cautious when he came out of Xiuyuan.

She looked around and saw the big tree.

Last time, a team of guards passed by, and she hid behind a tree, and she accidentally heard the sound of someone talking in the tree.

This big tree is just outside the Xiu Garden, will there be a secret passage under the tree that can lead to the Xiu Yuan?

Last time, He Ran didn't stay to take a closer look, but this time she had time.

She patted here and there on the big tree, this big tree had always been here, and if the mechanism was so easy to find, maybe it would have been discovered by the lazy chamberlains and maids.

So the location of this mechanism must not be easy to find.

In her previous life, she had a lot of effort to find a strange person who was good at strange tricks and tricks, learned some skills from that strange person, and under the guidance of the strange person, in each of her towers, all the secret passages were set up.

Therefore, she can also be regarded as a half-expert in this regard.

She saw a stone lamp four or five paces away from the tree, but now the stone lamp was not lit, as if the stone lamp was not lit the last time she came.

He Ran walked over, put his hand into the place where the candle was placed, and found that it was actually very deep.

The whole hand can't get in, only two fingers can be reached.

She explored carefully with her fingers, and suddenly, her fingers touched a smaller hole, and she reached into it with one finger, and touched something that looked like a spring, and she pressed it, and then there was a rustling sound in her ears.

She hurriedly looked at the big tree, and saw that the trunk of the big tree slowly opened, and there was actually a small door.

At this moment, He Ran admires the ancient skilled craftsmen very much, and this mechanism is not comparable to that strange person.

Could it be from that person?

He Ran didn't think about it anymore, and walked sideways into the small door.

The little door closed behind her, and she didn't look back, and since she was here, she had to probe whatever she said.

If she can find the mechanism that comes in, she will definitely find the mechanism that goes out.

Inside the small door, there was a space that could only accommodate two people standing facing each other, about half the size of a tree trunk.

In other words, half of the trunk of this big tree has been hollowed out, and only the other half is alive, and it is still lush with branches and leaves, and its vitality is not unstrong.

It was pitch black in the tree hole, and He Ran let himself get used to it for a while, and his vision gradually recovered, and finally he saw a step down.

The steps are very steep, and there are iron chains on both sides to support them, which shows that not all the people who usually walk around here are so martial arts.

He Ran didn't need help, he walked down the steps quickly, although this step was steep, but it was not too long, and when He Ran landed on the last step, there was a flat path in front of him.

She carefully discerned the direction, yes, the direction that this path leads to is Xiuyuan.

This is already under the show garden.

He Ran held her breath and continued to walk forward, she had an intuition, there were people here!

She could still see in the trunk of the tree, but when she got down, she couldn't see anything, which only meant that it was darker and the scenery was single.

Therefore, every step she took was cautious, and she groped all the way on the wall with her fingers, and the humidity of the walls on both sides began to change, He Ran remembered that there was a small lake in the show, and the small lake was stagnant water, because it was not taken care of, so it smelled a little.

Now, He Ran smelled the smell, this road is under that small lake!

After walking for about a hundred meters, the smell gradually became smaller, obviously, it was far away from the small lake, and at this time, He Ran smelled a new smell again.

Sandalwood scent!

This is the smell in the small Buddha hall of the old Jin princess.

He Ran cheered up and continued to walk forward, her fingers suddenly stopped moving, because she touched the wood, it was a door, and there was a door here.

He Ran was overjoyed, she had been in this tunnel for a long time, and she didn't feel breathless, and even in a few places, she also felt the flow of air, which showed that there were ventilation holes in the tunnel.

He Ran took out the fire fold from her body and beat it, and through the faint light of the fire, she saw a secret room.
