In the evening of this day, Murong Ci, who woke up from sleep, received a brief letter from Murong Yu and hurried out of the palace.
The carriage stopped outside Yuwang Mansion, and she asked Qin Ruo to go in and report.
Not long after, Murong Yu came out, jumped into her carriage, and asked straightforwardly: "Your Highness really want to go together?"
She said firmly: "How can I miss this good show and when will I go?"
"Wait another half an hour, Your Highness wants to go into the mansion to rest for a while?"
"No need, I can just wait in the carriage." She didn't want to be entangled by Murong Shi anymore.
"Actually, His Highness can climb the window again," he jokingly raised his eyebrows.
Murong Ci glared at him angrily, "My lord, please go ahead."
Murong Yu got up and said, "Your Highness, wait a moment."
She looked out the small window, and he gave some instructions to a man in black, then got into the carriage again, and told the driver where to go.
She secretly speculated that the man in black had never seen him before, so he should be his secret guard.
The carriage sneaked, and she asked Murong Yu who had just entered: "Where are you going?"
"How dare I let His Highness wait at the door for half an hour? His Highness hasn't had his meal yet, why don't you go and eat first." Murong Yu said calmly.
"Also."
After receiving his brief letter, Murong Ci went out of the palace without taking care of the meal, and Ruyi packed a few cakes in a hurry and stuffed them for Qin Ruo.
She ate a few pieces of pastry, and was indeed still hungry.
Soon the carriage stopped, and it was an unremarkable restaurant. She thought that he must have chosen such an ordinary restaurant because he didn't want to attract attention.
Unexpectedly, the private room on the second floor is extraordinarily elegant, and several dishes of home-cooked dishes are also unique in flavor, which makes people feel unsatisfied.
Murong Ci drank half a cup of anti-greasy tea, burped, feeling embarrassed, went to the window facing the street to see the people's livelihood on the street.
Murong Yu stood beside her holding a teacup, looking at the vast sky.
The familiar fragrance of aloe water was faintly present, she turned to look at him, his gaze was long, as if he had looked across the entire imperial capital, looking at the entire Northern Yan Kingdom thousands of miles away.
The dark blue sky is high and far away, the moonlight is thin, and the stars are shining brightly, as if a certain mischievous god sprinkled a handful of crystal diamonds casually, and the velvet night is vivid and colorful.
"Hope tonight goes well."
She felt that it was strangely quiet, so she said something casually.
Murong Yu said solemnly: "I would like to meet that mysterious young man in golden clothes, but unfortunately I didn't have the chance last night."
"Maybe there's a chance tonight."
Murong Ci saw that the blue color on his face had faded, but he was paler than usual, and the black light robe with no pattern and decoration made his skin whiter than snow.
She asked solemnly, "I'm fully prepared this time."
He laughed it off, "It's a big deal that the king is injured again, and His Highness will accompany the king to escape."
She couldn't help but glared at him, "It's getting late, let's go."
He put down the teacup and followed downstairs.
Tonight, he will wipe out Linglong Xuan
There were people staring at the front shop of Linglongxuan, and hundreds of elite soldiers were deployed around the two houses. Murong Yu and Murong Ci led people to break into the house, but they didn't see the young man in Tsing Yi. The house was dark, and she had a bad feeling. Sure enough, they entered the underground world smoothly, but the building was empty, and there was no one in sight.
The two rooms that were lively and noisy before, the gaming tables and screens are still there, but they are empty and cold, like a deserted ancient tomb.
He assigned elite soldiers to search in all directions, and suddenly asked her, "Does your Highness remember where the stone chamber of the young master in golden clothes is?"
Murong Ci shook his head, "The young servant in Tsing Yi took Ben Gong blindfolded, and Ben Gong can only look for it based on the general direction."
Murong Yu narrowed his black eyes slightly, "Go and look for it."
She tried hard to recall, recalling the wall that burst open when the young man in Tsing Yi led her to meet the young man in Jin Yi the first time she came here.
His eyes searched the huge stone room, which wall can he enter that passage
Bogu rack
She walked over quickly, and there were a lot of curios on the antique shelf, which showed that it was the mechanism.
Turn this and turn that, each one moves, and you can always touch the real mechanism.
Murong Yu also helped to find the mechanism. The secret room where the drug ointment was placed was opened, but the long case was empty, not even a box of drug ointment.
The transfer speed of the young master in gold is really fast
Finally, another wall was opened, and Murong Ci said happily: "It should be this."
The two of them set foot on that passage together, following their memories, turning left, then right, then left, then left again, as expected, the stone room in memory was right in front of them.
The stone chamber is still there, the treasures are still there, and the people are gone.
They inspected the stone chamber carefully, hoping to find something directional.
However, the young man in golden clothes did not leave any clues, and they found nothing.
"This jade carving is lifelike, but I can't tell what it is. It looks like a tiger and a leopard." Murong Ci played with a blue jade carving.
"This red gold pixiu is not a real pixiu, it just looks like it." Murong Yu frowned, "These rare treasures are exquisitely carved, they should be palace products, or rare treasures that have been handed down for hundreds of years, but they are not ours.
The style of the submerged beakbr >
"It is indeed a little different from the treasures of our Northern Yan Kingdom. If it is from a foreign country, then is the young man in golden clothes the Eastern Chu Kingdom, the Nanyue Kingdom, or the Western Qin Kingdom?"
"What is certain is that the young man in golden clothes is not from the Northern Yan Kingdom. He poisoned all the civil and military officials of the Northern Yan Kingdom with drug ointment, which is a clear proof."
His deep eyes were dyed with fiery red shadows, as if burning with anger.
When the two returned to the two rooms, the subordinates came to report, but they did not find anyone or anything suspicious.
Murong Ci suddenly remembered something, "I can't find any clues here, go to the shop along the street of Linglongxuan to have a look."
They hurried to the shop, which was guarded by elite soldiers, and it was also pitch black inside.
The torches illuminated like daylight, revealing every corner without a doubt.
She inspected the inner hall carefully, not letting go of every inch.
Murong Yu asked, "Have you found anything?"
"Don't make noise." She said impatiently.
"What are you looking for"
"I told you not to make noise."
He simply sat down and waited comfortably. Suddenly, he saw a smear of crimson in the opposite corner, so he walked over and picked it up from the ground.
He held the crimson flower that looked like a flower, "Look what it is"
Murong Ci took the flower and thought about it: "I have seen this in medical books one after another, think about it."
"Think slowly."
"It seems to be the roselle, it's the roselle." She smiled happily, "I have said that roselle can only grow, bloom and bear fruit in the hot and humid southern regions."
"Eastern Chu and Nanyue have both." Murong Yu's eyes were sharp, it seemed that the young man in golden clothes was either from East Chu or Nanyue.
"There are wild roselles in the hot and humid southern regions of Eastern Chu and Nanyue, and the Imperial Capital also has them. Zhiyan mentioned it to Bengong, where is it?"
Murong Ci pondered for a long while, then laughed pleasantly, "I remember, there are only a few plants in the Imperial Capital, and only one place has them."
He was a little excited, "Where is it?"
If this roselle flower was not brought from Eastern Chu or Nanyue, but was the only place in the imperial capital where roselle flowers were grown, then Linglongxuan, Mr. Jinyi and the others were most likely hiding in that place.
She excitedly said: "Xuanyuetan."
Murong Yu clasped her wrist and walked out quickly, "Go to Xuanyuetan."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone outside, Murong Ci subconsciously broke free, his cheeks were slightly hot.
It took about half an hour to ride horses from here to Xuanyuetan. They rushed out of the city with more than two hundred people, and the loud noise of galloping horses woke up the people who had already slept.
Xuanyuetan is located 30 miles south of the city, and it got its name because the Wangbitan looks like a Xuanyue.
The steed galloped past, forming black lines in the night, startling countless birds.
The stars are shining brightly, and the night is low, as if you can pluck a star with your hand.
In the dark night, everything was quiet, and occasionally there was a howl of a wild animal.
Because there are underground hot springs at the bottom of the pool, whether it is day or night, Xuanyue Lake is filled with mist, like the sea of clouds and fairy lake in Penglai Wonderland, which is particularly mysterious. On the east side of Bitan, there is a clump of roselle flowers, the crimson flowers are shadowy and graceful under the cover of water mist.
When Murong Yu and the others arrived, they dismounted two miles away and approached the target briskly, as if they were approaching a formidable enemy.
Murong Ci looked at the hot spring bitan which was a zhang away, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" He turned to look at her.
"I always feel that something is wrong, but" she frowned slightly, "don't you think it's too smooth?"
"It was indeed too smooth." He had already noticed this.
Without being sure of their true identities, the young man in golden clothes decisively abandoned Linglongxuan and the underground world, which he had been in business for many years, to preserve himself and his strength, which shows that he is thoughtful and good at planning. And since he ordered everyone to evacuate, how could he leave such obvious clues as Luoshenhua for them to find here
Her eyes were full of gloom, "Xuanyue Lake has nowhere to hide, so it shouldn't be the hiding place of the young master in gold."
Murong Yu's deep eyes were filled with icy coldness, "We have been tricked."
Murong Ci said bitterly: "It's because I'm too careless."
He walked towards Xuanyuetan, the heat of the hot spring permeated the air, turning into mist, he walked leisurely through the white mist, she followed, "what are you looking for?"
"Your Highness, this place is quiet and quiet, the hot spring water is slippery, and it's just a good time, why don't you take a bath in the hot spring together?" He suddenly smiled secretly, "I can't come here in vain."
"My lord's brain is broken, I can send you an imperial doctor to treat you." She gave him an annoyed look and walked back without looking back.
Murong Yu looked at the beautiful Xuanyue Lake and sighed in his heart.
Thinking of being tricked by the young man in golden clothes with a false clue, he clenched his fists tightly and his joints slapped.
Back in the city, Murong Ci was about to go back to the East Palace when he saw him approaching, as if he wanted to say something.
"There is still one more clue to check, does Your Highness want to go?" He threw out a bait and waited for the big fish to take the bait.
"What clue?" As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she had a flash of inspiration. Yes, there is another important clue.
