Chapter 034: Returning in the Night

The regent listened to the words that came out of Qingchen's mouth, and at first felt disdainful, but later, his face gradually showed a trace of paleness, showing a look of decadence.

She didn't expect that Mu Qingchen would guess exactly what she was thinking.

She wanted Nie Xinrou to find the secret realm, wanted her to die there, and killed people with a knife, which could be regarded as avenging today's revenge, but she didn't expect that all this would be seen through by Qingchen so quickly.

"You are the person next to the Six Imperial Princesses, you came to me for her, and you also want to get the news of the Holy Land, and then help the Six Imperial Daughters seize the treasures of the Holy Land" The regent did not answer the rhetorical question, wanting to take the initiative.

"Why I came, you don't need to know, you just need to answer, what I just said, is it what you think in your heart" Qingchen asked, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

The regent looked at the woman in front of him, and smiled gently, but it made people look shuddering and trembling.

Finally, under Qingchen's cool eyes, the regent felt weak for a while, and finally lost the battle, and then spoke: "You are right, the holy land is indeed dangerous and abnormal, no one has been able to successfully enter it for so many years, and if you are not careful, you may die there." But I know that those who die in the Holy Land have not found the right way to enter the Holy Land, and as long as they find the right way, they will not die. ”

"Tell me everything you know, I won't deal with you like Nie Xinrou, if you say it voluntarily, then I will definitely try my best to keep you safe, but if you don't want to say it, you can only wait for Nie Xinrou to feel that you have no use value, and then kill you with a sword." Qingchen said lightly, without threat, not even a heavy word.

The regent looked at Qingchen, and seemed to be fighting in his heart, just as Qingchen said, this secret was indeed her last bargaining chip, if she said it, she would have no choice but to rely on Mu Qingchen.

Qingchen was not in a hurry, she still had a lot of time, and Nie Xinrou probably wouldn't go and return, so she simply sat there, looking at the decoration of the regent's room, with an indifferent look.

Finally, the regent seemed to have made up some kind of determination, and said: "You and Nie Xinrou are indeed different, if you really want to choose one person to cooperate, I would rather that person be you." I'll tell you all this, but you must promise me one thing. ”

"Don't worry, since I said that I would save your life, I won't break my word. Qingchen nodded and said.

"It's not the thing I want you to say yes to. I'm a cripple now, I don't care if I'm alive or not, but I want Tianqi to live, he's my last hope. The Lord Regent said.

"Yu Tianqi is just a collateral nephew among your male pets, and he is not half related to you, why are you so protective of him," Qingchen asked.

"The girl doesn't know, in fact, Tianqi is my son, Menghua is just my daughter who came from the side in order to compete for power, I came up with this method for fear that the first emperor would know that I gave birth to a son, but I didn't expect that it still can't change anything, and the throne has never been with me. The Lord Regent explained.

Hearing this, Qingchen nodded, in this way, everything makes sense, why would the regent be so different from Yu Tianqi, it turned out that he was the regent's biological son.

"Okay, don't worry, I saved Yu Tianqi's life, and I will let him live. Can you tell me anything else now?" Qingchen said, then looked at the Regent.

"You do as I say. The Lord Regent sighed and said, "There is a rope at the head of my bed, beside the curtain, which looks like the decoration of the curtain, but it can be pulled, and you find this rope and pull it down with all your might." ”

Qingchen found the rope according to what the regent said, pulled it down, and there was a strange sound behind the bed, which turned out to be opened from the inside against the wall of the bed, like a door.

"Hold Yu, you hold the prince, let's go in. Qingchen didn't wait for the regent to speak, and then commanded Shuyu.

Shaking Yu nodded, lifted the regent up from the bed, and then put it on his back, and the three of them walked towards the secret passage behind the wall.

After all, she has practiced martial arts, and it is not difficult to carry a person on her back, and they are not worried that the regent will be unfavorable to Zhanyu now, after all, her hands and feet are useless.

The three of them entered the dark passage, and Qingchen saw the candlestick in the dark with his extraordinary eyesight, and then walked over, lit it and pulled it, illuminating the entire dark passage.

They didn't go far before the three of them came to a secret room, which was not big and clear at a glance, and the most attractive thing was a picture hanging on the wall.

The picture is very strange, it is not a complete painting, nor is it from the hand of some famous artist, at first glance, it looks like a child's graffiti, I don't know what the painting is. But if you look closely, this painting hides a mystery, and it actually contains the formation of the five elements and gossip, and only people who have a little bit of this technique can understand this painting.

"This painting is related to the Holy Land," Qingchen asked, pointing to the painting, to the regent.

Shuyu put the regent down, helped her sit on a chair in the secret room, walked to Qingchen's side, and looked at the inexplicable painting.

"Yes, this painting does have something to do with the Holy Land. The Regent nodded, "This painting contains what you need to enter the Holy Land, and only by cracking this painting can you find the right way to enter the Holy Land." ”

"What do you need to enter the Holy Land?" asked Qingchen.

"Topographic maps, keys, and some essential self-defense tools. The most important thing is the topographic map and the keys. The regent said, "I have been getting this painting for many years, and so far I have only cracked part of it, and I have obtained the topographic map, which is the box in Nie Xinrou's mouth, and as for the key, I am at a loss." ”

Qingchen listened to the regent's words, turned his head again, and looked at the painting on the wall, his eyes were full of thought.

"Actually, no one knows what is in the holy land, whether there are treasures, whether there are such mysteries as people say, after all, no one has entered the holy land in southern Xinjiang for hundreds of years. The regent continued, "If you have the opportunity to go to the Holy Land, you must come back alive, and I want to know what it is like inside the Holy Land. ”

"Don't worry, if I can go, I will definitely take a good look at it for you, the holy place you have been thinking about all your life. Qingchen said, "In addition to this painting, are there any other clues?"

"No, but, maybe my painting is not too complete, in the hands of the second princess, there are also some clues, you might as well go to her, maybe she can tell you something. The regent said, "The reason why I was able to join forces with the two princesses in the first place is because we each hold a part of the secrets of the Holy Land in our hands, and only by joining forces can we crack all this." ”

"I see. Qingchen nodded, "Actually, I'm not interested in the so-called holy land at all, if I hadn't heard you and Nie Xinrou talking by chance today, I wouldn't have come out to ask you so many things." ”

"If everyone thinks like you, then the world will be peaceful, but unfortunately, the temptation of the Holy Land is too great, and the power of that treasure is too amazing, so that countless people flock to it, even I can't avoid it. The regent spoke, "Okay, you can take everything about the Holy Land here, I have nothing more to give you, whether you can enter the Holy Land and find the treasure depends on your creation." ”

"Regent, if you hadn't fought against Nie Xinyao at the beginning, maybe you're still the regent now. Qingchen said, "The Sixth Highness is a person who values family affection very much, and she has repeatedly told me that no matter what I do, let me save the life of the Seventh Highness incomparably." ”

After speaking, Qingchen didn't look at the look on the face of the regent, but only told Zhiyu to put away all the things in the house and take away all the useful things, and then she personally helped the regent out, put the regent on the bed, and restored the secret room to its original state.

After everything was settled, Qingchen didn't stay any longer, leaving only a bottle of heart pills, which was placed within the reach of the regent, and then left here with Zhiyu.

The regent looked at the back of Qingchen leaving, and he was very grateful in his heart, his eyes were full of complicated light, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

She remembered what Qingchen had just said, Nie Xinyao asked Qingchen to show mercy to Nie Xinlin's subordinates, and she sighed in her heart, she even wondered if she hadn't been so eager to frame Nie Xinyao at the palace banquet that day, would she not have fallen to this point.

There was also this bottle of medicine, although she didn't open it to see it, but with the smell, she also knew that this thing was hard to find, and Qingchen was deliberately placed within her reach, even if her hands were useless, there was still a way to be able to take these pills by herself.

She saw all this in her eyes, and her heart was slightly moved, Nie Xinyao was indeed different from Nie Xinrou, and even the people around the two were different.

Baolian only had killing intent towards her, and also broke her tendons and tendons, but Mu Qingchen healed her, even if she had targeted Nie Xinyao, and almost put Nie Xinyao to death.

The night was silent, Qingchen's figure had long since disappeared, and the regent didn't think about it anymore, after a night of tossing, she was already exhausted, dragging her body covered in blood, lying on the bed, and soon fell asleep.

Qingchen and Zhiyu didn't stay long, holding the things they had scavenged from the Regent's Mansion, and returned directly to the courtyard of the Six Princes' Mansion.

"Girl, you're finally back. Ye Di greeted him, but he saw the thing he was holding in his hand, and he consciously took it from Ji Yu's hand, and then asked, "What is this, how did you go out and buy such a calligraphy and painting back?"

Qingchen didn't answer, but just asked Nightshade to put those calligraphy and paintings in her room, in an inconspicuous position, so that people could not notice anything unusual.

She didn't expect that when she went to the Regent's Mansion tonight, she would get so much useful information, everything Nie Xinrou did was just to make a wedding dress for her, she was actually curious about this so-called holy place, but it was just curiosity, but she never thought of taking this risk.

Because she knows deeply that some things have to go with the flow, that holy place is rumored to be too mysterious, almost not like a mundane place, she asked herself that she is not a great person, she does not have the ability, can enter the holy land that no one has set foot in for so many years.
