princess regent lifted from her grave

Qingfeng galloped all the way, and the few people arrived in front of the teahouse while they were talking.

When the carriage stopped, Qingyun came on horseback.

Qingfeng was puzzled, "Qingyun, didn't you go to check on that carrier pigeon? Why did you come here?"

Qingyun did not expect that they would be in the same place.

Seeing the prince and King Xiu got off the carriage, he hurriedly got off the horse, walked to the prince quickly, and said with his hands together,

"My lord, the place my subordinate mentioned is here, and the carrier pigeon disappeared near this teahouse."

Ye Lijue raised her eyes to look at the teahouse in front of her, there were no customers in the teahouse, only one Xiao Er who was dozing off.

Then I looked around, and there were very few pedestrians on the street.

After handing over the carriage to the dark guard, Qing Feng hurriedly stepped forward and explained,

"My lord, the plaque of this teahouse has only been replaced recently. In the past, it was a resting place for the cockfighters. The backyard of the teahouse is the cockfighting arena, and now it has been moved underground."

Qing Yun wondered, "How did you know about this place? I only found out about the situation in this teahouse today when I checked the pigeons."

"Naturally, the secret guards who secretly protected Miss Mu followed. The two of them bought a rooster specially to get in, so they knew everything inside."

Qingyun was even more puzzled, "Why didn't the people who searched here find the two of them."

Qing Feng shook his head, he didn't know either.

Qingyun knew the answer when he saw the person walking quickly in the distance.

I saw the person coming in coarse cloth, dressed like a hidden guard who looked like a small stall owner, Qingfeng thought to himself, who would notice that the dark guard was dressed so hard in this outfit, who would care about dressing so casually The stall owner, plus he hides martial arts.

It turned out that after the secret guard delivered the news, he returned here again, and before he entered the underground cockfight, he saw the prince's carriage galloping towards him.

The hidden guard hurriedly walked up to the prince and bowed his hands, "My lord."

Seeing him dressed like this, Ye Lijue understood, nodded slightly, and said coldly, "Lead the way."

The hidden guard listened to the order and hurriedly walked towards the teahouse.

When the dozing Xiaoer squinted his eyes and saw a group of people coming in, he woke up instantly. Except for the people who led the way in front, all of them were dressed in extraordinary clothes and had an awe-inspiring look. Wealth is wealth, and the way one of them looked at him made him even more startled.

But he still boldly stepped forward and asked,

"Guest officer, how many cups of tea do you need?"

Qing Feng stepped forward and said impatiently, "A few cups of tea, just wait."

Then he threw the person aside.

Xiaoer, who was busy in the backyard, saw several people approaching aggressively and hurriedly hid in another room.

Seeing that they didn't pay attention to his side, he quickly walked to the underground venue from another direction.

The hidden guard who led the way imitated the actions of the little second before, and knocked on the door regularly, but no one opened the secret door.

The dark guard didn't understand,

"My lord, the subordinates let that Xiao Er knock it like this before, but for some reason no one opened it."

Ye Lijue raised her eyes and glanced at the secret door in front of her, and then looked around. There was a scroll portrait hanging on one side of the secret door.

Ye Lijue stepped forward and gently lifted the portrait, but there was no hidden grid behind the portrait, but it was extremely flat.

There is no imaginary mechanism.

Ye Lijue frowned, he had an intuition that the mechanism must be here.

He observed carefully again, and found that the lowest end of the scroll seemed to be in constant contact with the wall, leaving marks on the wall.

Ye Lijue stretched out his hand to touch the wall, and understood where the mechanism was.

Then he put down the scroll gently, and when the portrait was stable, Ye Lijue held both sides of the scroll with both hands and gently pressed it against the wall.

At this time, the hidden door slowly opened.

When the secret door opened, Ye Lijue took a quick glance inside, then lifted the portrait again, and found that the wall was no different from before.

He took out the dagger from his body and swiped it twice, the wall where the organ was located opened like paper, revealing the wooden organ.

It turns out that the design of this mechanism is exquisite, and the outside of the wall has been specially treated. Even if a low-end scroll is pressed here, it will not leave too many marks. After pressing, the wall will return to its original shape. I don’t know why. The traces caused by the scroll hitting the wall for a long time.

Ye Lijue squinted her eyes as she looked at the exquisite design, wondering why such an exquisitely designed mechanism is needed in an ordinary cockfighting arena.

Thinking about Qingyun's report before, the intercepted carrier pigeon disappeared here, could it be that the person who delivered the news to Xiyou Kingdom was hiding here?

Ye Lijue figured out the key, and immediately ordered,

"Qingyun, call the hidden guards around here. Some of them guard the surroundings of this teahouse. Don't let anyone go for now. Some of them will go to the underground cockfighting ground to search carefully."

Qingyun also noticed the difference here, and quickly responded, "This subordinate obeys orders."

Then hurried to arrange what the prince ordered.

King Xiu said anxiously,

"Ninth brother, let's go down quickly and take a look. I don't know what happened to the younger siblings?"

The corner of Ye Lijue's mouth twitched slightly when he heard the words, and the moment the secret door opened, he saw Yan'er sitting on the gambling table, and seeing that Yan'er was fine, he checked the mechanism.

Ye Lijue nodded slightly, and walked down first, followed by King Xiu and the others.

Sitting on the gaming table, Mu Fengyan looked at the people lying on the ground, prostrate, or kneeling begging for mercy with cold eyes.

But everyone has one characteristic, that is, all of them have bruised noses and swollen faces, grinning with pain.

Mu Xiu, Mu Qing, and Mu Shui stood around Mu Fengyan, with the same expression as Mu Fengyan, looking at these people on the ground with extremely cold eyes.

It turned out that Mr. Jiang had lost his eyes redly before, so he asked shopkeeper Li to take them down. The reason was that there was something wrong with Mu Fengyan's cock.

Shopkeeper Li asked someone to check the rooster out of fairness at the beginning, and the result of the test was that the rooster was fine.

But Mr. Jiang thought that there was something wrong with the rooster, and he cursed that the inspector was incompetent, or that he was the same as Mu Fengyan and his group.

Shopkeeper Li beat Young Master Jiang out of it. Shopkeeper Li had only one purpose, and that was to get the jade fan.

Seeing that there were only four people in Mu Fengyan's party, he felt nothing to be afraid of.

In the end, he seemed to be helpless, so he asked Mu Fengyan and his party to return all Mr. Jiang's bets. He also threatened that Mr. Jiang and the others would not be able to offend him. , otherwise don't blame them for being rude.

Mr. Jiang saw that shopkeeper Li was also leaning towards him, and he was even more confident and proud. He came directly to Mu Fengyan and stretched out his hand to ask for his house deed.
