Chapter 33 Secret Room
Rong Sheng lowered his head and counted the days. It was now the beginning of August, and it would be the beginning of autumn in another month.
In her previous life, she had presented gifts to the emperor on his birthday more than once, so she naturally knew that the emperor's birthday banquet was in the autumn.
In the past, the emperor’s birthday banquet would be held at the Yanhuang Palace on the outskirts of the capital.
Yanhuang Palace is located in Wanjing Valley on the outskirts of Beijing. It was originally built for the people in the imperial palace to escape the summer heat.
Wanjing Mountain has beautiful scenery, especially in early autumn, when the maple leaves all over the mountain are golden and brilliant, which is really refreshing when viewed from afar.
The Yanhuan Palace located in it is as wealthy and luxurious as the imperial palace. In those days, the Gu family business also donated a lot of money for the construction of this palace.
On every emperor's birthday, the imperial palace would invite dignitaries from the capital to go to the suburbs and spend a few days in Wanjing Mountain. This year is expected to be no exception.
Rong Sheng walked into the study while thinking, and looked down at the topographic map of the palace on the table again.
If Prince Jing'an is going to take action soon, the most suitable place would be the Yanhuang Palace in the suburbs. It is far away from the capital, surrounded by mountains, with complex terrain, and is extremely easy to hide.
But all this is just my guess, I still have to go to the palace to find out.
If the conjecture is proven to be correct, then for the safety of Dazhen, we must think of a countermeasure in advance.
She looked out the window thoughtfully.
If Prince Jing'an really rebels one day, the purpose of his marriage with the Rong family may very well be to drag Rong Dexin into the rebellion as well.
When the truth comes out, the entire Rong family will be exterminated for the crime of treason.
Rong Sheng looked down at the badge in his hand and said to himself, "The identity of Princess Yong'an is still of great use to me, so I'll save Rong Dexin's life for now."
————
That night, Rong Sheng, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
She sat up slowly, drew aside the bed curtain and looked out the window.
It was already midnight, the moon was high in the sky, and the courtyard was silent.
"It should be time to leave."
Rong Sheng thought silently in his heart, walked to the bronze mirror, and with the help of the moonlight, he quickly tied up his long hair, changed into night clothes, and then deliberately painted his eyebrows and eyes like a man.
Finally, everything was ready. She jumped out of the back window nimbly, leaped along the roof with ease, and soon left the Rongguo Marquis Mansion.
At this moment, the streets and alleys in the capital were empty, and only the sound of night watchmen could be vaguely heard in the distance.
Relying on her memory, Rong Sheng climbed over eaves and walls and soon arrived at one of the side doors of Prince Jing'an's Mansion. She climbed over the high wall without hesitation and entered the mansion.
After standing firmly on her feet, she took out the topographic map from her arms and studied it carefully under the moonlight.
After sorting out her position, she jumped onto the roof again and quickly flew towards the back door of the palace.
Soon, Rong Sheng arrived at the dilapidated courtyard. She looked down at everything in the courtyard. At this time, the rockery in the center of the courtyard looked even more dilapidated in the night.
She jumped down from the roof and stood still on the rockery. She concentrated her mind, slowly raised her hands, and began to practice her skills.
The powerful energy wave of Yunfeng Jue quickly spread from her dantian to her palm.
The next second, she took a deep breath and pushed the rockery forward with all her strength.
As she expected, the rockery really moved forward one foot.
But before Rong Sheng could continue to exert force, the half of the mountain that had just been moved began to rotate on its own.
Rong Sheng opened his mouth in amazement, watching the mountain move motionlessly as if by magic.
After an unknown amount of time, the rotating mountain finally stopped. She raised her eyes and looked carefully, and she vaguely saw a cave entrance in the rockery.
Could this be the entrance to the secret room?
Rong Sheng muttered to himself, and cautiously approached the rockery and looked into the cave, but the cave was pitch black and he could not see anything.
She quickly took out the flint from her arms, chiseled it hard to make a flame, picked up a bunch of branches from the ground, tied them into a bundle, and then lit it.
In the light of the torch, the entrance of the cave suddenly became bright.
Rong Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly and clearly saw the tunnel inside the cave and the neatly built stone steps.
She calmed herself down, gripped the torch tightly, and walked straight into the depths of the cave.
The tunnel was built just like the buildings on the ground of the palace, winding and tortuous, and it was impossible to see the end at a glance.
Rong Sheng counted the steps while tapping the stone walls along the tunnel with his hands.
After she patiently walked around countless turns, she suddenly felt that the back of a stone brick under her hand seemed hollow.
She immediately stopped, gently put her right ear against the stone brick, and tapped it hard with her hand.
It's really hollow——
Rong Sheng's heart paused, then he raised his right hand and smashed the brick hard.
The next moment, the stone brick was smashed into the wall, and then the entire stone slab next to it began to rotate at a constant speed.
After a while, the stone slab stopped moving, and a dark secret room came into view.
Rong Sheng was immediately delighted.
The secret room is actually here!
Then she held the torch high in her hand and walked in quietly.
The walls surrounding the secret room are inlaid with luminous pearls, and the light they emit is enough to illuminate the entire secret room.
Rong Sheng extinguished the torch, rubbed his eyes, and finally saw the situation in the secret room clearly.
But when her eyes swept over the items displayed in the room, her face was instantly filled with shock.
The capacity of this entire secret room is very large, and what is displayed inside is not gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, but various weapons and equipment.
However, what surprised Rong Sheng the most was the feather-scale armor on display.
She had anticipated that King Jing'an might have many pieces of Nanyue feather scale armor, but she didn't expect the number to be so large. The entire secret room was almost filled with them, with no end in sight.
And judging from the scale of this underground secret room, it must have taken several years to build to be so spectacular.
The fact that Prince Jing'an had such a powerful arsenal hidden from the imperial court showed that he had been planning a rebellion for a long time.
Rong Sheng sighed inwardly and continued to walk inside while observing the layout of the secret room.
But before she took a few steps forward, she saw the defensive mechanisms hidden on the walls and the ground.
King Jing'an was a cautious person by nature. Since he had gone to so much trouble to create such a huge arsenal, he would certainly have designed some foolproof defensive measures.
Although these mechanisms are concealed, their locations are very clever. If anyone breaks in without permission, 90% of the time they will be killed by these mechanisms.
Rong Sheng took a deep breath and tried his best to relax his tense nerves.
Fortunately, she had studied these things in her previous life, otherwise she might have really lost her life here.
As she continued to look intently at the weapons, a long sword was suddenly placed against her throat.
Rong Sheng's heart sank and she stopped in an instant. She looked down and saw the sword tip was ice-cold, shining with a chilling light.
Why does this sword look so familiar?
She was full of doubts and was about to ask, but she heard a hoarse voice from behind: "Who are you and why are you here!"
