"Found it!" Jasmine stood up in surprise and whispered.
Wen Qingzhu got up and walked over, and found a mechanism behind the bed that could be pressed.
Knocking on the board under the bed, I recalled the empty sound inside.
Wen Qingzhu felt no hesitation and pressed it directly.
A dull sound came from the ground, as if something was spinning.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the door panels in front of them began to slowly open.
A dark hole appeared in front of their eyes.
In the thick darkness of night, it seemed as if a beast's bloody mouth could devour people at any time.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and said, "I'll go down to investigate first. You'll wait up there. If there's any change, we'll follow the original plan."
But Jasmine grabbed her hand: "Miss, why don't you go down as a slave, in case those people haven't left yet..."
Wen Qingzhu shook his head, pressed Jasmine's hand, and said with a smile: "It's okay, don't worry, the poison last time is rare in the world, but we have developed an antidote. If we really encounter them, I will give it back They have prepared a big gift."
After saying that, Wen Qingzhu got in.
When the door panel slowly closed, Wen Qingzhu moved forward in the dark.
After she walked downhill for a while, she finally reached level ground.
Wen Qingzhu felt calmly. There was no wind and his breathing was smooth.
It proves that this place is closed and there is more than one entrance and exit.
After taking a few steps forward in the dark, Wen Qingzhu carefully explored the path, but unexpectedly heard a groan.
Wen Qingzhu immediately held his breath and listened to the source of the sound, which was not far away.
After hesitating for a moment, Wen Qingzhu walked over.
When the sound got closer and closer, almost right in front of his eyes, Wen Qingzhu stopped.
There was a faint rancid smell in the air, as well as a familiar medicinal smell.
After waiting in silence for a moment, Wen Qingzhu decided to blow the fire seal.
Light illuminated the place instantly, and a narrow tunnel suddenly appeared in front of him.
What shocked Wen Qingzhu was that there were actually bones here.
The one in front of her was an old man with rotten legs. Her hair was gray, her eyes were dull, and she could only open her mouth to breathe in and out.
Wen Qingzhu knelt down and examined the old man, and immediately discovered that the poison in her body was exactly the same as her previous one.
After giving the old man the antidote, Wen Qingzhu gave her an acupuncture.
After half an hour, the old man still had no response.
Wen Qingzhu decided to check out the front first. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Wen Qingzhu saw three forked roads.
It feels like there is a layer of water vapor in it.
For the other two roads, the light shines in, but there is no end in sight.
Wen Qingzhu was silent. She had always known that there were some hidden tunnels in the palace.
Wen Qingzhu was very familiar with the tunnels over the Xuanzheng Hall.
She checked the direction in her mind and found that the road on the left led to Xuanzheng Hall.
But where does the road on the right lead to
Wen Qingzhu remembered the direction for the time being. When he came back, the old man seemed to be conscious and squinted his eyes.
When she sat down next to the old man, Wen Qingzhu was diagnosing her pulse, but found that the old man's hand moved and seemed to be pointing at his waist.
Wen Qingzhu was silent for a moment, then reached out and touched it, and touched a strange-shaped golden hairpin.
She took it out and looked at it carefully. Just when she was about to turn around and say something, the old man's hand hammered down weakly.
Wen Qingzhu quickly checked her pulse, and was shocked, she was dead!
After carefully looking at this golden hairpin, Wen Qingzhu felt inexplicably that the shape of the flower on this golden hairpin was very similar to the words on the sachet that Liu Liangren gave her.
After examining the old man, Wen Qingzhu found that she was wearing something that seemed to be the style of the palace maid's clothes from the late emperor's time.
Touching the old man's bones, Wen Qingzhu knew that the old man was at least sixty years old.
So, she stayed in the palace for at least forty-five years.
That is at least three emperors.
At the exit, Wen Qingzhu discovered the grains of sand that had been left on her body.
As expected, those people took her away from here.
Do you want to stay in this place
Wen Qingzhu decided to go out first.
After arriving outside, Jasmine had disappeared, leaving behind the lantern she had prepared earlier.
After lighting the lantern, Wen Qingzhu left the side hall.
But as soon as she turned the corner, she encountered a group of forbidden soldiers. They all rushed forward, pointing at Wen Qingzhu with swords in their hands.
Not long after, Lu Lei appeared in front of him wearing armor.
"Why are you here if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?" Lu Lei belongs to Zhu'er, and he has been very favored by the emperor recently.
Wen Qingzhu knelt down and saluted, "Didn't I hear a cat meowing non-stop in the middle of the night? I came out to have a look, but after searching around for a while I couldn't find it, so I was ready to go back."
Lu Lei looked at her suspiciously, then turned around and ordered: "Then please, Miss Zhu'er, please come with us. Something happened in Qianyuan Palace."
Wen Qingzhu had a frightened look on his face and asked cautiously: "May I ask Mr. Lu, what happened?"
Lu Lei said nothing, only said: "You will know when you go."
Arriving at the front hall, Wen Qingzhu saw a large group of people.
Among them, Su Huo, who was dressed in white, stood out particularly. Wen Qingzhu felt that things seemed to be beyond his expectations.
After slowly walking over, I found a stretcher in front of me, covered with a white cloth.
An embroidered shoe was exposed, and Wen Qingzhu recognized at a glance that the deceased was Xiaomeng.
Lu Lei over there stepped forward and reported back: "Master Su, Miss Zhu'er has brought you."
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward and met Su Huo's eyes.
The familiar feeling came to his heart again, and Su Huo almost blurted out and asked: Are you Wen Qingzhu
"Master Su, this servant is here." Wen Qingzhu withdrew his gaze, bowed respectfully, and then recounted what happened tonight.
Finally, he looked at the white cloth uneasily and asked, "Excuse me, sir, who is that person..."
"Xiao Meng, she is dead. She was found with Mo'er's silver hairpin stuck in her neck. She bled to death." Su Huo replied concisely.
Wen Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat: "What about Mo'er? Is she really a murderer?"
Su Huo looked at her: "No, but I'm under guard for the time being. But you, who just showed up now, are the most suspicious."
In less than a quarter of an hour, Eunuch Fang rushed over.
After asking the whole story clearly, Eunuch Fang asked again: "Do you suspect that Zhu'er killed Xiaomeng?"
Su Huo said nothing, only said: "It is still under investigation."
It was getting brighter. Jiang Yue fell ill and temporarily lived in Chengming Palace.
Father-in-law Fang quietly told her this news.
At that time, Wen Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat. Xiao Meng's death was probably planned early in the morning.
The current goal is also very obvious, it seems to be to catch all the maids in Qianyuan Palace.
Xiao Meng died, Jasmine was suspicious, and a dagger with blood and cat hair was found in A Li's cabinet.
"Eunuch Fang, please leave. We need to check Zhu'er's identity." Su Huo walked in with two elderly nuns and gave direct instructions.
Little Eunuch Fang could only retreat.
Wen Qingzhu knelt on the futon, and Su Huo walked up to her and looked at her quietly.
After a while, Su Huo turned around and said, "Check her whole body."
"Miss Zhu'er, please come here." Since Zhu'er was very popular with the emperor, the two nuns were still very polite to her for the time being.
After following the two nuns to the inner room, Wen Qingzhu turned around. The leading nun pointed at the basin on the table and said, "Please Miss Zhu'er cleanse your face, and then take off your clothes for the old slave to check."
Wen Qingzhu took a deep breath. She had expected this day before coming here.
I just didn't expect it to be so soon.
After washing their faces, the two of them silently and carefully inspected the roots of her chin and ears.
After confirming that there was no problem, I took two steps back.
Wen Qingzhu began to take off his clothes one by one...
Half an hour later, the two of them silently led the plain-faced Wen Qingzhu out and answered respectfully: "Sir, there is nothing wrong with Miss Zhu'er. The scars on her lower back and thighs are all there."
Su Huo stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Wen Qingzhu quietly for a long time, and finally said: "I understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, the head nun suddenly took out a golden hairpin and handed it to Su Huo: "Master Su, this is the jewelry made by imperial decree from the palace. I was lucky enough to work as an errand in the Zichen Palace of Concubine Zhou. This hairpin is. The golden hairpin is a relic of Concubine Zhou."
Su Huo's eyes lit up, he took the golden hairpin, and after checking it, he found a familiar smell.
"I know, you go down, I will come to interrogate her personally." Su Huo waved his hand and told everyone to leave.
Wen Qingzhu stood motionless, lowered his head and sighed. After all, Su Huo recognized him.
After the door was closed, Su Huo walked up to Wen Qingzhu, with trembling hands, wanting to touch Wen Qingzhu.
But he hesitated.
Wen Qingzhu raised his head at this moment, and Su Huo's hand that he didn't have time to retract touched her forehead.
If he was prepared, Wen Qingzhu couldn't say anything at such an embarrassing moment.
Su Huo's heartbeat accelerated, and in order to cover up his embarrassment, he turned around.
Wen Qingzhu restored his original voice and whispered: "Master Su is indeed the reincarnation of Qingtian.
Su Huo turned his head suddenly, only to find that he felt a fragrance wafting in front of his eyes, and then his body went limp uncontrollably.
Wen Qingzhu stepped forward quickly, helped him lie down, looked at Su Huo's eyes slowly closing, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I can only do this..."
Su Huo tried hard to stay awake, but he still fainted.
With no outsiders around, Wen Qingzhu first gave him one of his unique Qianjin Pills, and then gave him another pill.
"Sorry, you have to sleep for a while first."
Less than half an hour later, Wen Qingzhu stood up, opened the door and shouted, "It's not good, it's not good, Mr. Su vomited blood and fainted."
Lu Lei, who was guarding outside, felt his heart skip a beat and immediately sent someone to capture Wen Qingzhu.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yue insisted on leaving Chengming Palace.
Everyone from the Tai Hospital came over. After seeing Su Huo's injuries, they told Jiang Yue: "Your Majesty, Mr. Su is overworked and his old illness has recurred. He still needs to recover for a few days."
Jiang Yue frowned and asked, "Does that mean he doesn't have any other problems?"
The High Court judge nodded: "Yes, Master Su will definitely wake up in as long as a month or as little as three to five days. His injuries last time were too serious, and it was a fluke that he could save his life."
"That's good, you can go down." Jiang Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
After arranging the Soho, Jiang Yue called Wen Qingzhu and others in.
Wen Qingzhu knelt down and admitted, "To report to Your Majesty, Concubine Wan's cat was accidentally killed by a slave, and it had nothing to do with Mo'er."
Before Jiang Yue called her in, Wen Qingzhu learned from Eunuch Xiaofang that there was sufficient evidence to prove that Jasmine killed the white cat.
"Is it really you?" Jiang Yue actually knew the truth of the matter and had no intention of holding Mo'er responsible.
After all, that white cat is actually quite annoying to him.
But Wen Qingzhu couldn't wait to admit all this because he was sure that he would punish her good sister Mo'er!
For some reason, Jiang Yue was a little disappointed. Originally, Wen Qingzhu was very suitable to serve him.
Over the years, apart from Eunuch Fang, Wen Qingzhu was the only person who made him feel so comfortable.
