The two of them walked towards the main gate of the palace, not looking guilty at all, and walked with very confident steps.
Even the lines had been prepared long ago, so everything went very smoothly, and they walked into the palace easily.
This was An Xin's first time to visit the Miaojiang palace. After entering, he remained highly alert, fearing that he would be caught.
The palace was also under tight security, with guards passing by for inspection from time to time. An Xin followed behind Young Master Qing Jin with her head down, trying her best not to reveal any clues.
Fortunately, they were safe along the way, especially under the leadership of Master Qing Jin, which made An Xin feel that it was no problem to travel around the entire palace.
"Why do I feel like you are quite familiar with this place?" An Xin's tense spirit gradually relaxed and she couldn't help but ask this question.
It was really unexpected that Young Master Qing Jin took this path, and he perfectly avoided the patrols of the guards.
"No, I calculated it." Young Master Qing Jin just shook his head calmly and gave such an answer.
Calculated!? Can such a thing be calculated? An Xin was puzzled the moment she heard that. At the same time, she was also thinking whether she was really too rubbish to know that such a thing could be calculated.
So, An Xin couldn't help but ask humbly about this matter, "What did you use to calculate it?"
"According to the duty routes of these guards, each one has a traceable path. As long as you observe carefully, you will know where the next patrol team will appear." Young Master Qing Jin explained the matter to An Xin in a serious manner.
It sounds quite reliable, but An Xin feels that she still can't do it to that extent. No matter how she looks at it, she can't figure out how to observe the section of road where they are on duty.
Anyway, as long as she follows Young Master Qing Jin, she will never be caught. An Xin still firmly believes this.
The journey was smooth, so An Xin became bolder and started chatting with Young Master Qing Jin about all sorts of things. Her original intention was to find out some specific information about him.
Young Master Qing Jin's answers were very natural, and he could answer every question. At first, An Xin was still very interested, but later when she found that she couldn't find out anything, she felt a little bored and gave up.
"Hey, have I been here before? It looks familiar." An Xin realized something was wrong as she walked. She felt that everything in front of her looked familiar.
In fact, from the moment she started asking questions, Master Qing Jin's attention was focused on answering her questions, so he just walked casually. Unexpectedly, he went back to the same path he had taken. This was really a mistake.
Facing An Xin's questioning, he remained calm. There was no need to panic anyway.
"Really? Maybe most of the buildings here are similar, so you made a mistake?" Young Master Qing Jin refused to admit that he had taken the wrong path, and just responded casually like this.
An Xin looked puzzled when she heard this, thinking that this statement was not credible at all, as this was clearly what she had just seen.
She looked around carefully again and saw a palace called "Chiyang Palace" not far away. She immediately looked excited.
"This is the palace we just passed by. I also saw it just now. Look!" An Xin pointed to the Chiyang Palace not far away and said to Young Master Qingjin very excitedly.
Young Master Qing Jin had long known that they had indeed repeated this journey. Now that An Xin pointed it out so decisively, he still felt a little embarrassed.
If she hadn't kept asking about his situation, he wouldn't have taken the wrong path, Ning Yan muttered silently in his heart.
On the surface, he pretended to be nonchalant and replied, "Maybe I took the wrong way. It doesn't matter. Just try again."
Perhaps it was because Master Qing Jin's tone was so natural that Xia Jun couldn't find any problems with it. She just nodded silently and followed him through the steps again.
When they were about to leave, the Chiyang Palace suddenly made some noises. They were very subtle, but even for someone like An Xin who had practiced internal skills for more than 30 years, they were still very clear.
Even Young Master Qing Jin heard it clearly. Both of them stopped at the same time and looked at each other.
At times like this, the tacit understanding between the two of them was truly amazing. They could tell what the other was thinking from each other's eyes. That's right, they both thought that something was not right with the Chiyang Palace.
The two of them hid under the steps nearby and continued to inquire carefully about the situation inside.
"Get out of here and don't bring anything in anymore." A woman's voice was very tired and weak, and no one knew who she was talking to.
However, everything did not seem to go as she wished. Soon, the woman's whimpering sound was heard, as if something was force-fed to her. Master Qingjin and Anxin immediately realized that something was wrong.
“You, you bunch of lunatics! Don’t think that Qin Chen is the King of Miaojiang just because he occupies the territory of Miaojiang. He is not recognized by the gods of Miaojiang, and he will always be a treacherous minister!” After being force-fed, the woman started cursing again, and you could tell how angry she was.
Indeed, Qin Chen was a treacherous minister who forcibly seized the position of King of Miaojiang which did not belong to him.
These words are extremely disrespectful in this palace. Normally, no one would dare to say this. If anyone has the courage to do so, it would probably be... Cha Qianqian!
It was really a case of searching for something without any effort. I didn't expect to find Cha Qianqian here.
Originally, they just wanted to get familiar with the route and didn't expect to find the place where Cha Qianqian was under house arrest in one go, but they didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.
An Xin felt that it was thanks to her internal strength that she could hear everything clearly, otherwise she might have missed it. The sound did not sound like it came from inside the palace.
It sounds more like it came from underground, which means that Cha Qianqian is most likely under house arrest under this palace!
"Who lives in this palace?" An Xin asked this question as soon as she thought of this possibility. She vaguely felt that the owner of this palace would not be a simple character.
Ning Yan glanced at the name of the Chiyang Palace and pursed his lips into a straight line. He had not investigated this matter in advance, but he had an answer in his mind.
When imprisoning such an important person, they would never send just anyone to guard him.
Before he could answer, Xia Jun heard a familiar voice coming from the palace again!
