Xiaoman learned from the shopkeeper that Wan Xi had thrown Lin Zezhi out, but her portrait appeared in Lin Zezhi's arms. She was a little amused and confused. These two people really have a connection.
Then he stopped thinking about it and walked inside. Wan Xi was already full at this time, and looked at you and blamed you: "Why are you looking for me? You know, I can only find things."
Xiaoman just walked in and heard this, and laughed: "Just let you help with what you are good at, don't worry! I will take you to the palace to see the emperor, and then let you go to detect it. What do you think?"
Wan Xi glanced at Xiao Man with dissatisfaction: "I haven't had enough fun in Kyoto yet? Do I have to go to work again?"
Lin Zezhi looked at Xiaoman and Wanxi curiously. What could Wanxi do? However, neither of them answered his question. Instead, Gu Xiangning looked at Wanxi and said, "Aunt Wan, this is a serious matter."
"You can finish it first and then play. You can play however you want. I will definitely not interfere with you!"
Thinking about what happened today, Gu Xiangning was a little amused and confused. He didn't know why Aunt Wan Xi was like that, but she just couldn't stand being disturbed while eating.
This person was very protective of his food. Wan Xi was helpless and had to nod: "Okay, then take me to the palace!"
Gu Xiangning and Xiaoman looked at each other, then stood up and took Wan Xi into the palace. Lin Zezhi also stood up and said, "I'll go to the palace with you."
At this time in the palace, the emperor was talking to the queen. The news that the queen was pregnant again had spread all over the palace! The ladies in each palace were very jealous.
But they didn't dare to take any action. All the troublemakers had been dealt with, the favorite concubine died in the cold palace, and Concubine Chen was now very honest and didn't dare to show her face in front of the Emperor. It was Concubine Han and Concubine Liu who were the last ones to do so.
They tried every possible means to get in front of the emperor, but unfortunately the emperor didn't even look at them. The two were helpless and didn't dare to get in front of the queen.
After all, the Queen Mother has said that if there is any problem, you should go to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother is personally in charge of the palace. Who dares to commit a crime? Everyone has to be extremely honest.
The emperor was stunned for a moment when he saw Wan Xi, and blinked his eyes: "Who is this?"
Wan Xi had already spoken: "Your Majesty, my name is Wan Xi, and I am the aunt of Princess Bingjian, so we look a bit alike!"
So that's how it is. The emperor exhaled a breath, "I was wondering why my sixth brother's wife has changed a little and looks younger!"
When Xiaoman heard this, her eyes widened: "So, Your Majesty, are you saying that my sister is very old? Okay, I will tell her for you!"
Hearing this, the emperor's face darkened instantly, and he glared at Xiaoman. Gu Xiangning coughed twice: "Okay, stop making trouble, let's talk about business, Aunt Wanxi."
"We asked you to come here because there is a huge palace underground, and we want you to go down and measure the distance. Xiaoman and I will accompany you.
As the saying goes, every profession has its own expertise. Wan Xi is very good at this. It can be said that no one can learn her skills. She blinked her eyes and said, "Tell me where the entrance is. I'll go down and take a look."
"Oh, you don't have to follow me!"
Xiaoman shook her head: "No, Aunt Wan, it's not that there are no people down there, there are a lot of people, there may be tens of thousands of troops or even more, and we have found more than ten entrances and exits so far."
"So I can't let you take the risk alone."
Hearing this, Wan Xi was puzzled: "You have found more than 10 entrances? It seems that you are also very powerful? But don't worry, don't worry about me, I will complete the task."
"Only if you take me to see the entrance."
Xiaoman wanted to say something when she saw Gu Xiangning giving her a look. Wanxi was different from others. She was a loner and didn't like others to do things with her.
So I had no choice but to agree: "Okay, then I'll trouble Aunt Wan."
Lin Zezhi now understood what these people wanted Wan Xi to do. Seeing that the matter was settled, he spoke up, "Wait a minute, you let a woman survey the terrain of the underground palace?"
“Would that be too much?”
This directly angered Wan Xi. Wan Xi rolled her eyes at Lin Zezhi and said, "Why, you don't trust women or you don't trust me? I guarantee that you can't do what I can do!"
Lin Zezhi nodded: "I can't do it, but it's too dangerous for you to do it alone."
The emperor watched the quarrel between the two with great interest, and then looked at Gu Xiangning: "What's the situation between your Aunt Wan and Lin Zezhi? Why does it seem to me that Lord Lin is very worried about her?"
Gu Xiangning was still speechless, while Xiaoman on the other side had already vividly described how the two of them got to know each other through fighting! After the emperor heard it, he was also very amused.
Well, Lin Zezhi has no woman he likes, and he doesn't care about any woman. Now he finally meets someone who can teach him a lesson. The emperor smiled.
He looked at the few people and said, "Since it's settled, let's go! Xiaoman, Xiangning, you guys stay for a while. By the way, Zezhi, you also know those intersections."
"Just take Miss Wan with you to have a look! I just thought you have nothing to do!"
Lin Zezhi was dumbfounded when he heard this! He obviously didn't want this woman to do such a dangerous thing, so why did he have to take her there personally
Looking at the emperor, he had already stood up and left with Xiaoman. After they came out, Gu Xiangning looked at the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, what is the matter that you asked us to stay?"
The emperor said, "Oh, nothing happened. Don't you think it's fun to see them interacting with each other?"
Xiaoman and Gu Xiangning were both speechless after hearing this. Yes, it was quite fun, so forget it! The two looked at each other and chose to continue shopping.
But who knew that once they went out on the street, all they heard were gossips about Lin Zezhi. The two looked at each other and were instantly speechless. Meanwhile, Lin Zezhi had already taken Wan Xi out of the palace.
She had been to all the entrances in the palace, and one of them was actually in the Queen's palace. Wan Xi carefully memorized several entrances in the palace, and then went to other entrances.
They visited almost all the entrances in one afternoon, and then Wan Xi glanced at Lin Zezhi; "Master Lin, you can go back now, I'm going downstairs!"
Lin Zezhi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Wan Xi: "It's a bit dangerous for you to go alone, so I'd better accompany you!"
Wan Xi rolled her eyes: "It's more dangerous to take you with me, don't question me, just go!"
As she spoke, Wan Xi had already left. Of course, she wanted to get rid of the person in front of her. Lin Zezhi just watched Wan Xi disappear in front of him, frowning with some dissatisfaction.
But no one saw Wan Xi disappear into thin air after entering an entrance. A small bubble suddenly emerged from the soil and then moved quickly.
That’s right, Wan Xi is a rare person with special abilities who can walk in the mud without being discovered. Of course, this is a rare inheritance of the Wan family and not everyone has it.
At least Qian Jiujiu's mother didn't inherit it, and Qian Jiujiu didn't inherit it either. But with the help of this ability, after one day and one night, he finally figured out how many entrances there were in the entire underground palace.
There are 20 entrances in total. Wan Xi drew the picture and gave it to Xiaoman. After Xiaoman got the picture, he blinked and found that there were three more entrances hidden in the palace.
They are respectively located in the Emperor's Qinzheng Hall, the National Treasury, and the Empress Dowager's Palace, while the others are in the residences of important ministers, if one enters the palace directly from the underground.
I'm afraid it's still very dangerous, but now that the entrance has been found, I can catch a turtle in a dream! Thinking of this, Xiaoman's eyes flashed with a ruthless light.
He found Gu Xiangning with the map, then entered the palace and placed the map in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, this is the map drawn by Aunt Wan, and I have thought of a way."
"Seal all these entrances and leave only one entrance. Pour water into it and drown those people alive!"
The emperor raised his eyebrows: "Are you sure this map is correct?"
Gu Xiangning heard this and looked at the emperor: "Your Majesty, the map provided by Aunt Wan has never been wrong!"
After hearing this, the emperor still felt that it was too risky to believe it, but as long as he could force these people out, he could win even if it was fair!
Thinking of this, the emperor agreed directly: "Okay, then you go!"
Xiaoman and Gu Xiangning found some people, and then went to various entrances and directly blocked them with iron blocks, and then sent some people to stay at these entrances.
Finally, they went to an entrance outside the city. This entrance was very close to the lake, so Xiaoman kept this entrance while Gu Xiangning deployed troops and waited for the army to arrive.
He started pouring water into it, and watched the water flow in little by little. When no one was paying attention, Xiaoman threw some powder into the water.
Anyone who touches the water will become weak all over, and even if they want to climb out, it will be impossible. At this time, Ying San was also beside Xiao Man, looking at Xiao Man.
"County Lady, Qi Mengyao is still inside."
Hearing this, Xiaoman was stunned for a moment. She had completely forgotten the existence of this woman. Wanxi looked at Xiaoman in surprise: "Qi Mengyao? Male or female?"
Xiaoman curled her lips: "Women, there are some troubles."
Wan Xi paused for a moment before speaking: "There are no women down there, only men. There are about 100,000 soldiers in there. It's full of food, enough for 100,000 people to live for two years."
The possibility of a rebellion of 100,000 people being successful is very small, but the possibility of being able to capture Kyoto is very high, because the total number of Kyoto's royal guards is only about 30,000.
