After the two women led the king into the underground palace, they touched the mechanism in the underground palace, and the wooden cabinet in this room was closed.

Looking at this room now, I can't find any clues at all.

Only the silver needle in front of the wooden cabinet, which is out of place in the room, is particularly eye-catching.

...

the other side.

The queen received a letter from Feige from country L.

In the letter, the king of country L told the queen that the border will be completely captured tonight and will enter the territory of country Y.

After reading the letter, the queen tore it up and threw it into the trash can at her feet.

According to the speed of country L, it will be able to enter the country tomorrow.

At that time, she will persuade the ministers in the palace to surrender directly on the grounds that country Y's military strength is insufficient.

In this way, country L can easily take over country Y, and her plan can be successfully completed!

She no longer has to be afraid of the king, and she will sit back and relax in the future!

Thinking of this, her heart was filled with the pleasure of taking revenge on the king!

Just at this moment, a maid came in from the outside, just in time to see the sneer at the corner of the queen's mouth.

The maid froze for a moment, and the words she wanted to say suddenly stopped in her mouth.

If it wasn't for the queen standing there, she almost thought that there was something wrong with her eyes.

The king is missing, the eldest prince is sick, and the queen is still smiling?

The queen noticed the maid, immediately suppressed her smile, looked directly at her and said, "What's the matter?"

Only then did the maid come to her senses, and quickly said, "Queen, the ministers have all gone to the main hall to discuss the border war. They invite you to go over and discuss together."

The queen is the head of the harem, so she is not suitable to participate in political affairs.

But now the border war is imminent, and the army of the palace needs to be mobilized.

The royal army was supposed to be mobilized only by the king.

But now the king is missing, Huangfu Yuncheng is lying on the bed, and Huangfu Yeting is not in the palace. The only person who has the closest relationship with the king in the palace is the queen.

The jade card that the king can mobilize the army is placed in the bedroom, and the ministers naturally dare not touch it.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the queen held the jade card in her hand on the grounds of supporting the border.

Now that there is no one in the palace in charge, the ministers naturally dare not have any opinions.

Therefore, when discussing border matters, the queen will be invited to go.

"understood."

After the queen replied calmly, she strode out.

...

main hall.

When the queen came here, the ministers were already discussing border matters like ants on a hot pot.

"The two dukes on the border have been captured alive by country L, and only Duke Devin, a civil servant, is still supporting them. I don't know how long they can last!"

"That's right, if the army of country L completely invades our country, then my country Y will be devastated!"

"Hey, is my country Y really going to die..."

Amidst the sighs of the ministers, the queen walked to the center of the main hall.

She pretended to have a headache, and said sadly: "Everyone already knows the situation on the border, right? Those soldiers on the border were all captured by country L, and our country suffered heavy losses!"

The ministers all showed helplessness.

"Queen, no matter what, we can't just admit defeat, we have to find a way to solve the current predicament!"

As soon as this remark came out, before the queen could speak, Marquis Ed immediately said something frustrating.

"Is there any other way to solve the current predicament? Could it be possible to send all the troops in the palace to support the border?

If this is the case, if Country L attacks here, who will protect the queen, we may all die here! "

He succeeded in creating anxiety among other ministers.

The ministers all frowned and sighed in silence.

At the same time, some ministers raised doubts: "It's really strange. His Majesty disappeared at this juncture, country L sneaked into our border without warning, and the eldest prince fell ill again. All these are so coincidental that one has to doubt it!"

His words reminded other ministers at the same time.

"Yes, you said, there shouldn't be any traitors from country L in our palace, right?"

As soon as these words came out, the ministers all looked at each other vigilantly.

They feel that it is very possible!

The only thing they didn't notice was the queen at the front.

The queen's face changed slightly, and she immediately changed the subject.

"Okay, now is not the time for you to make random guesses. The most important thing is to quickly resolve the border dilemma!"

When it comes to this issue, all the ministers are in trouble.

The only two dukes in the palace who understand military affairs have been captured by country L. The king is not around, and no one is in charge of the overall situation.

They hadn't fought a war for so many years, and now it suddenly broke out, and they were all in a hurry, not knowing what to do.

"Now, I only hope that the Duke of Devon can hold the last line of defense, and don't let country L enter the country!"

They pinned their last hope on the Duke of Devin.

The queen looked at the group of dejected ministers with a little disdain in her eyes.

Duke William, a man who is proficient in military affairs, was captured alive. How much trouble can a civil servant make?

At this moment, she only felt that these ministers were ignorant and dull.

She just waited for the news of the defeat from the Duke of Devon, and slapped these old guys in the face!

...

at night.

Chang'an Hall.

Huangfu Liyue left the bedroom again wearing the maid's clothes.

She went to the abandoned yard according to the route last time.

This time, she went straight to the bathroom.

After turning on the faucet, she found that the silver needle she had stuffed into the faucet before was gone!

The silver needle she placed last time is in a very special position, if no one has used the sink, the silver needle will never fall off!

So, she quickly took out the small lamp she had prepared and explored every corner of the courtyard.

Ten minutes later, she saw the silver needle in front of a cabinet in a room!

She bent down to pick it up and examined it carefully.

It was indeed the one she left behind.

Could it be that her father was giving her a hint?

She quickly knocked on the wall, testing whether there was a mechanism.

But after trying it, I didn't find anything strange.

She did not give up, secretly found a hammer from the room, and hit the wall next to the wooden cabinet heavily.

As the wall skin fell, she gradually saw the scene behind the wall.

Behind this wall was a thick stone wall.

She tried to break the stone wall with a hammer.

But the stone wall is too hard, and the hammer can't do any damage to it at all.

However, she carefully illuminated the stone wall with a small lamp.

She found that the pattern on the stone wall was exactly the same as the pattern in the underground palace!

It really is here!

Although she found another passage in the underground palace, she encountered new problems.

The stone walls in the underground palace are thick and hard, and they are made of special stone, hard and sharp tools can't do anything about it.

With her own strength, it is impossible to smash this thick stone wall.

After contemplating, she could only leave temporarily to seek help from others.

...

After leaving the courtyard, she quickly returned to Chang'an Hall and changed her clothes again.

She didn't go anywhere else, but went directly to Hans.

Since Hans was locked up by the queen last time and released by Huangfu Yuncheng, he was sent by the queen to the gate of the palace.
