Chapter 643: You open it
Chapter 643 You come to open it
With this thought, Xu Mingyi slid silently and hid behind a thick linden tree.
Her back pressed against the tree trunk, her right hand gripped the crossbow tightly.
The wind blew, and there was a rustle around in the dim, she was even a little unsure if she had heard it wrong.
And if it weren’t for her misheard, such a subtle movement would definitely not have many people on the other side, so it shouldn’t be difficult to solve it.
As she was concentrating on gathering momentum, the voice of the Eye of Heaven suddenly sounded above her head.
"Keep on!"
Xu Mingyi's expression changed when he heard it, and he subconsciously raised his head to look overhead. The Big Bird stood on the tree trunk, flapping its wings without regret.
Xu Mingyi felt wrong.
Tianmu can be regarded as an experienced senior in the errand of the wind, and has never dragged her back like this.
unless…
Could it be—
Thinking of a possibility, Xu Mingyi jumped a few times in his heart, poked out half of his head from behind the tree, and looked in the direction where he had just come.
There is indeed someone behind her!
Although the footsteps were light at this time, they seemed unconcealed compared to just now. In the dimness, a dark figure was walking towards her.
This is outside the mausoleum. There are only a few yellow lights hanging in the distance, and they can't see each other for a while.
is the cry of the heavenly purpose, allowing them to identify each other.
Tianmu has already flown towards that figure.
Xu Mingyi also ran out from behind the tree, always running quickly.
She rushed forward, stretched out her hands in the dark and hugged the person tightly.
She had a lot of strength and ran fast, almost knocking him back a step.
He pretended to be bumped into pain, and grunted and laughed.
Xu Mingyi can feel that he is wearing a fine silk robe, which is very soft, but the figure under the robe is strong and powerful. The breath is clean and refreshing, and the body smells like it has just been exposed to the sun.
He also stretched out his hand to hug her, his tone of reunion joy, low and gentle, but first asked: "Didn't you agree to stay in Beijing?"
Her identity has not been revealed. It is safest to stay in the city at this time. He also agreed with her on this in the previous plan.
Before learning that she was going to the city alone, he was extremely opposed to it. If she discussed with him, there would be no negotiation. She must also know this. When the letter was sent to Ningyang, she had already entered the city.
He can only speed up the deployment of everything and make the plan as smooth as possible.
"Didn't you also agree not to come to Lingshan? Just wait outside?" Xu Mingyi raised his head from before him, and asked him in a tacit tone.
Neither the left nor the right are obedient people, let alone anyone.
Wu Chao sighed with a smile, seemingly impeccable.
He knew she would not stay in the city obediently.
No need to ask more, but also know why-she might have something to happen, so she has to stare at herself to be more at ease. Even, she has other plans.
She will not let this plan fail.
And he is the same, because of the same reason, he understands the other person's thoughts.
The original plan was for the prince to come forward, and he was outside to respond to the Lord Zhen Guo. He knew what this meant—if the Lord was there, why should he come to respond? In the final analysis, it is the prince who wants to take the risks and variables alone, leaving him with stability and "results".
He could not agree.
Wang Ye—Father, he has undertaken too much alone in these years.
And he has never shared anything for his father, he is the person least qualified to sit back and enjoy his success.
So, he must come.
Father is here, Zhaozhao is here, how could he not be there.
The number of people that can be brought in is limited. If there are multiple people who can get an idea, they can always deal with it in secret, and the risk can always be lower.
This point, the two people's ideas coincide.
"At this time, there are heavy guards around Lingshan, how did you get close here?" Although there was no movement around, Xu Mingyi still pulled people to avoid the dark.
Tenmu also followed up.
Wu Chao replied: "I saw Ji Xiu this afternoon—"
Xu Mingyi was a little surprised.
The emperor just arrived today, and his movements were fast enough, and he had already set up the line with Ji Xiu.
Since this is the case, it is no surprise that he can easily approach the palace.
She asked again: "Are the prince and grandfather ready?"
"Don't worry, everything is going according to plan, and everything is ready." Wu Chao said: "Just wait for the future."
just—
"Why come here late at night?" He glanced around. This is the entrance to the mausoleum, and it is also the place where the sacrifice will be made in the future. Although there are no heavy soldiers to guard, there will be guards patrolling past. And she must be adventurous along the way.
He approached here tonight in order to find out the situation everywhere, and hide in the palace early, so that he can arrange things later.
Although the news sent by Ji Xiu is used as a reference, he always has to check it personally to be sure whether all this is as the other party said.
When came, he noticed another similarly suspicious person approaching here, and he followed behind.
wasn't sure that it was Zhaozhao at first, so he just followed and never showed up.
"I'll fetch something..." Xu Mingyi's voice was extremely low, grabbing one of his wrists, and saying, "Come with me."
Looking at the two of them leaving like this, Tianmei’s eyes were extremely round, and his mouth mumbled twice in confusion—Is the owner who hasn’t seen each other for a long time, and why can’t he see it at all?
Wu Chao was not in a hurry to ask Xu Mingyi what she was going to take, and only followed her all the way to the apse holding mansion, where there was obviously someone there, breathing heavily.
Coming to the outside of the room, Xu Mingyi took out the smoke and lit it, crouched and stuffed it in the gap under the door.
Wu Chao is a little confused.
All the eunuchs who fall asleep here must be the eunuchs who guard the mausoleum. What are they going to do? Could it be that what you are looking for will be in this room?
After a tube of smoke was burned out, Xu Mingyi went to the window, took a dagger to pry open the window, and explained in a low voice: "I'm going to get the key to the mausoleum..."
was originally looking for the key—
Wu Zhao grabbed her arm: "Wait, I'll go."
A house of eunuchs, lest you see something you shouldn’t see, or touch someone you shouldn’t touch.
It's fine if he is not there, if he is there, it will be avoided if he can avoid it.
He was so happy, Xu Mingyi did not insist, nodded, put a clean sweat towel on his side, and motioned him to cover his mouth and nose.
Wu Chao took it, put one hand on the window sill, leaped up and turned in silently.
The keys were mostly hung on the waist seal of the robe. He first came to the screen where the eunuchs used to hang clothes. After the screen, there were chamber pots and wooden barrels. It should have been unwashed for a long time, and the smell was strong.
The eunuchs who are far from the palace inevitably slack off and are not very particular about everything.
Wu Chao covered his nose and held his breath, thanking Xu Mingyi for not letting in.
Half a quarter of an hour later, he came out of the window.
Seeing that he got it, Xu Mingyi closed the window, and the two quickly left the place and headed to the front hall.
There are two large strings of keys, fifty or sixty keys. The two tried for a while before opening the door of the palace.
It is not impossible to pry the windows, but here is the main hall, and tomorrow will be prepared for sacrificial matters. If there are traces left, people may be aware of it.
The more you get to the end, the more you have to be careful.
The moment the door of the palace opened, there was light in the line of sight.
In the solemn and solemn hall, there are lights staggered up and down, and there is a faint fragrance of candles over the years. Each shrine enshrines the spiritual seat of the emperor and the ancestors of the Xie family. Above the spiritual seat, there are a number of portraits.
Xu Mingyi's gaze fell on the portrait directly above.
It turns out that this is the first emperor.
She quietly glanced at the boy beside her.
doesn't look like it at all.
Wu Chao is two like the Queen Mother and the King Yan, and the rest is almost the same as the Wu family.
As for the Emperor...
Xu Mingyi's gaze fell back to the portrait, she looked at, Qingming Emperor and Xianhuang are quite similar.
Next to the portrait of the emperor Xian, there was another portrait of a woman hanging. Xu Mingyi glanced at the memorial tablet-thinking this should be the emperor’s biological mother and the rumored queen Duanxian.
Xu was very young when he died, and the person on the painting looked only 20 or 30 years old, beautiful but not charming, his brows were peaceful, and he was kind of quiet like Xiaojiabiyu.
Wu Chao only took a look, then retracted his gaze, and asked her: "Zhao Zhao, where is the thing?"
Xu Mingyi took him to the incense case.
Horizontally on both sides of the long case in the hall, in the corners on the left and right, there is an enamel bottle that is more than enough for one person.
According to Princess Jingrong’s previous confession, Xu Mingyi tried to remove the treasure bottle on the right. Wu Chao saw it and stretched out his hand.
Behind the bottle is the empty palace wall.
Xu Mingyi's fingers fumbled and tentatively on the wall about the height of his shoulder.
Wu Chao understands it.
There are organs here.
And at this moment, he saw the girl's white fingers pressed against it, and the wall with hooks and colored paintings suddenly sank in—
As the wall bricks recede and deepen, it can be seen that the depression is a square hole about seven or eight inches in size.
Seeing that Xu Mingyi was about to reach out, he raised his hand to stop: "Be careful."
He didn't even know that this mechanism was informed by the princess Jingrong, so he was vigilant, drew out the long sword around his waist and tried it in it for a while, and realized that there was something in it, so he reached out and took it out by himself.
Things should be placed against the mechanism. As soon as it was taken out, the mechanism slowly closed again, restoring the original flat wall.
What he took out was a long box, which was made of gloomy wood and locked.
The gloomy wood is not easy to split, and this lock looks unusual—
Wu Chao was thinking about whether to leave here first, and then find another way to open, but saw a key handed in front of him.
He was a little surprised.
I thought that "getting" that Zhaozhao said was a kind of implicit and decent way of saying... I didn't expect to come and get it, because there is a key.
Xu Mingyi said: "The key was given to me by the princess, and this thing was also hidden here in her early years—"
As for how the organs are set up, the eldest princess has not mentioned in detail, but she used to live with the empress dowager in the mausoleum, so she didn’t lack opportunities.
She looked at Wu Chao, and said, "Come and open it."
Let him open it, which is more suitable than her.
She subconsciously glanced at the portrait of Emperor Xian. Wu Chao came here to meet her tonight, maybe it was some kind of guidance.
With a crisp sound of "click", the lock was opened by Wu Zhao.
There is a chapter in the evening, but it should be quite late, and you can read it tomorrow.
