After coming down the mountain, I was pampered by two emperors!

Chapter 22 Exploring Yuchen Palace at Night

"In Yi Qing'er's opinion, how should we start investigating the case?" Mei Xichen held Shangguan Qing's hand and said with a smile.

"Look for the source. How about you and I go to Yuchen Palace tomorrow night to find out?" Shangguan Qing looked into Mei Xichen's eyes, as if he wanted to get Mei Xichen's approval. Mei Xichen looked at Shangguan Qing's expectant eyes as if she couldn't bear to refuse, but she was worried about her safety, so she shook her head and said deliberately:

"The idea is a good one, but Qing'er can't go."

"Why? The idea was mine, so of course I'm going." Shangguan Qing said coquettishly.

"Do you know how dangerous it is to explore the palace at night? If we wear night clothes, we will be regarded as assassins. At the same time, our identities cannot be exposed and we can only investigate secretly. Once discovered, they don't care whether you are the princess or not. Shoot him to death." Mei Xichen pretended to be worried and whispered while scaring Shangguan Qing.

"Hey, I thought it was no big deal. Isn't it just flying over the roof and walking over the wall? Back in Yuelinghua Pavilion, you saw that my Qinggong was very good. Don't worry, I won't hold you back. Can we, husband and wife, go together?" Shangguan Qing winked and smiled at Mei Xichen.

"Besides, I still have you by my side. If I am discovered, your Qinggong is better than mine and you will definitely be able to help me escape. I believe in you." Shangguan Qing said with another grin.

Mei Xichen couldn't stand Shangguan Qing's coquettishness, so she agreed and prepared to visit Yuchen Palace tomorrow night.

It was late at night, Shangguan Qing looked at Mei Xichen's sleeping eyes and went through the things to be done tomorrow in his mind.

In fact, Shangguan Qing knew that Mei Xichen only thought that she only knew a few tricks of the three-legged cat, and was afraid that she would be in danger, so she didn't agree to let her go, but she couldn't stand Shangguan Qing's coquettishness, so she reluctantly agreed.

But what Shangguan Qing thought was that Mei Xichen, the guard in the palace, could still deal with it, but Mei Xichen, a mortal, could not deal with the rat that turned into a spirit. Shangguan Qing was just afraid that something unexpected would happen to him.

What kind of flowers did that rat spirit transport to the palace? Is it what she needs to keep her body intact? Where do the flowers grow? Who cultivated it? Everything will have to wait until tomorrow night to find out.

Regarding Concubine Xue, Shangguan Qing knew much more than Mei Xichen, but he didn't want Mei Xichen to know too many weird things. After all, he was just a mortal, and without Shangguan Qing's protection, he was These monsters and monsters just have a helpless baby in their hands.

Just after the next day, Mei Xichen and Shangguanqing prepared their night clothes and walked towards the Yuchen Palace. Looking at the tall walls on all sides, Mei Xichen said with a bad smile: "Can't you go up? The king will help you." After saying that, Mei Xichen hugged Shangguanqing's waist, jumped onto the courtyard wall, and landed lightly in the inner courtyard.

"Follow me and don't make a sound, you know?" Mei Xichen warned in a low voice.

"Don't worry, I won't be a burden to you." Shangguan Qing said impatiently.

The two of them had just arrived behind a remote rockery and wanted to observe the surrounding environment. Suddenly Shangguan Qing heard the sound of stone grinding coming from the well not far away. At the same time, Shangguan Qing tugged on Mei Xichen's sleeve and pointed at the well. Mei Xichen instantly understood what Shangguan Qing meant, so the two of them walked towards the well.

As soon as she arrived at the well, Mei Xichen looked into the well and saw that the water in the well was sinking quickly as if it had been diluted. After a while, it hit the bottom. Shangguan Qing saw that it was not good and hurriedly grabbed Mei Xi. Chen ran and hid behind the rockery.

At this time, Mei Xichen and Shangguan Qing were staring at the mouth of the well, eager to know what would happen.

At this moment, a ladder emerged from the well, and then some people climbed up the ladder. Each of them held a red box in their hands. The surface of the box was hollow, and a rich aroma exuded from inside.

Shangguan Qing thought to himself: "No, this fragrance is poisonous." As he spoke, he covered Mei Xichen's mouth and nose, and motioned for him to quickly find a silk pa to cover himself. It's strange that those people just put the box on the stone table not far from the well and returned to the well one by one.

Seeing that everyone was gone, Mei Xichen quickly wanted to go up to investigate, but was pulled back by Shangguan Qing. At this moment, a little maid hurriedly ran over, loaded the red boxes one by one into the trolley, and pushed them to the side courtyard.

When Mei Xichen and the others saw that the maid had gone far away, they stepped forward to observe. After searching for a long time, they could not find the mechanism.

"It's strange how they came up and why the well returned to its original state." Mei Xichen asked in confusion.

"Their switch should be inside. There is no one outside, so we can't get in." Shangguan Qing said.

"Qing'er is even weirder, you seem to know everything?" Mei Xichen looked at Shangguan Qing with incredible eyes and said.

"No, I just guessed." He said with a ghostly smile on Mei Xichen's face.

"Let's go over there and see what's in her box?" Shangguan Qing turned to Mei Xichen and said.

Through the window, Mei Xichen and Shangguan Qing each dug a hole in the window paper, and saw that the little maid took out a few flowers in the box and put them together with other petals, and a small number of flowers in the box were mixed with tea leaves. Mixed together.

Shangguan Qing looked at the appearance of the flower carefully and thought to himself: "Isn't this the red dodder from Yagong? Why would anyone grow it here?"

"Who is this bold thief who dares to break into Yuchen Palace without permission?" A guard stood behind them and shouted.

Before Mei Xichen could figure out what was going on, when she saw someone, she immediately put Shangguanqing into her arms and flew to the roof. At this time, Shangguanqing felt that her feet had not even touched the ground, but she was hugged by Mei Xichen from a Rooftop jump to another rooftop.

Although Shangguan Qing could avoid the guards just by turning invisible, the feeling of being held by Mei Xichen and running away was so wonderful, and he was completely thrown into Mei Xichen's warm embrace.

"Um, why don't you fly? I haven't enjoyed it enough?" Shangguan Qing asked in a child-like tone.

"What? You are actually enjoying it. I am almost exhausted, okay, but you are enjoying it? You know if I hadn't reacted quickly just now, we would really have been shot into hedgehogs." Mei Xichen said breathlessly .

"I knew that the prince was the most powerful. I wonder what the prince saw just now? What did he find?" Shangguan Qing looked at Mei Xichen and said.

"I just saw the flowers, and when the guard called me, I took you and ran as fast as I could. What's wrong? Did Qing'er find something?"

"Well, I found a little more than you did." Shangguanqing looked at Mei Xichen with a smirk.

"Why don't Qing'er talk about it?" Mei Xichen asked quickly.

"Since we can't enter the mechanism at the wellhead, why don't we find another place where we can enter." Shangguan said seriously.
