As soon as he finished speaking, Fourth Brother Pei Che quickly opened the curtain, stretched his head over, and suddenly found a finger-wide gap lying quietly in the middle.

The fourth brother took a quick look and said quickly, "The entrance is right here, but this mechanism needs a switch to be activated. We don't have time to destroy the entire bed!"

On the other side, Pei Chun, who was interrupted twice in a row: "..."

Forget it, I’ll talk about it after I go out.

If they didn't act quickly, it would be bad if someone broke into the room and saw the two unconscious prostitutes.

Pei Chun stood up, grabbed the red mandarin duck and threw it to the ground.

He carefully rehearsed in his mind the movements of being wrapped in the quilt when he fought with the Gu Master last time.

He bent down tentatively and groped towards the edge of the wooden bed.

But unfortunately, she felt the entire edge of the bed.

But he couldn't find anything that looked like a mechanism, and Pei Chun was so anxious that sweat began to appear on the tip of his nose.

He squatted down and searched again in disbelief. After a while, just as he was about to withdraw his hand, he touched an unusual piece of wood on the edge of the footrest.

It's a movable bulge!

"Third brother, fourth brother, Gu Yuan!"

She remembered that the wooden bed would automatically close after it was opened, so the brothers and sisters had to be on it to ensure that they could go down together.

As she was thinking, she turned around and saw her second brother running towards her quickly.

On the bed, the third and fourth brothers had already understood each other tacitly without saying a word. They jumped to the middle of the bed at high speed, waiting for the second brother to press the switch.

Seeing this, Pei Chun immediately jumped onto the bed and sat next to Gu Yuan, and gave a look to his second brother Pei Cui who was waiting on the side.

On the other side, Pei Cui took a deep breath and moved the small wooden block with his fingertips with a worried look on his face.

The wooden bed suddenly made a slight mechanical sound and opened downwards from both sides.

The four people on the wooden bed fell down suddenly.

Pei Cui could see clearly that the underground was pitch black, like an abyss.

He had to deal with the brothel owner who might push the door open at any time.

After thinking for a while, he picked up the scattered quilt on the ground and put it on the wooden bed that had been closed again, pretending that there was someone lying on it.

He then stripped off the male prostitute's only piece of clothing and threw it under the bed.

The man was dragged and curled up naked beside the bed, and the curtains were pulled to cover his thin figure.

After taking a quick look, he found that there was no chess piece on the board. He immediately stepped forward, threw a handful of scattered black and white chess pieces at random, and deliberately helped the prostitute to lie down in front of the chessboard.

Disguised as chess pieces, they were disrupted by her.

After doing this series of things, my heart couldn't help but beat faster, and I put my hands on my sleeves, feeling quite restless.

That was a sleeve of bamboo hidden weapons that Ming Cheng had specially left for him.

To be honest, the moment the prince sent his private soldiers to kill his father, he knew that his own family might confront the prince.

But now that it has come to this, he still can't help but panic.

The crown prince is the heir to the throne, and apart from the emperor, he has the most stringent security around him in the world.

If the brothers and sisters fail this time, the entire Princess's Mansion will be implicated.

But my father and mother didn't stop me, alas.

But fortunately, my parents at least had a plan in mind and asked my eldest brother to go to the prince's residence in the evening.

He said he was going to surrender, but in fact he was keeping the man in the Prince's Mansion and helping him cancel his engagement with the daughter of the Ding family.

Thinking of this, Pei Chun sighed slightly.

Since my father asked my eldest brother to break off the engagement and go to the prince's residence instead of the Ding family residence, it is estimated that this doctor from the Ministry of Rites is the prince's man.

Although he didn't understand why his mother suddenly knew such a secret.

But mother asked my eldest brother to take all of father's military tokens to the prince's mansion.

Just to withdraw...

Alas, you are courting disaster.

The wedding date with the daughter of the Ding family is just around the corner, and he doesn't want to be associated with the prince.

Breaking off the engagement was inevitable. If he kept dragging it out, the Ding family would sooner or later come to the princess's mansion to make trouble.

If the prince is behind the incident, Dad might be impeached.

Finally, it is not impossible that the imperial edict will come down and force them to get married.

Pei Cui felt a little guilty, always feeling that he had ruined someone else's daughter's reputation in vain.

On his part, he just patted his butt and called off the engagement, leaving with ease.

But by then, how could the daughter of the Ding family choose her marriage partner without any scruples again?

But no matter how guilty they felt, there was nothing they could do. Their Pei family could not serve as a stepping stone for the prince!

If you don't want to become a victim of politics, you must give something to protect your family from the fight between the Crown Prince and the Sixth Prince.

At this point, we can only try our best to make amends.

After he successfully broke off the engagement, he spread the news that he himself was infertile.

To prevent rumors from hurting the innocent daughter of the Ding family.

On the other side, in the dark tunnel.

After Pei Chun and his two siblings fell from the top, everything in front of them was pitch black and they couldn't even see their fingers.

The third brother Pei Zhan at the back reacted quickly and was about to take out a fire starter when he was interrupted by Pei Chun.

"Someone is coming, brother, don't open it." Pei Chun said in a breath.

She grabbed Gu Yuan's arm with one hand, grabbed her third brother Pei Zhan's clothes with the other, and turned sideways to let her fourth brother hold her arm.

In the darkness, vision disappeared and her hearing was developed to the extreme.

He took the three people around him and quickly moved towards the wall at the corner.

At the far end of the tunnel, the young commander in charge of the Lanxiang Courtyard guards raised the torch in his hand a little higher.

"Do you smell anything? Why is it so fragrant?"

The guards beside him fanned their noses left and right: "I smell it, it seems to be the incense burning in the Lanxiang Courtyard!"

"Damn it, who can't control himself and has an affair with the woman above him!" The young commander frowned and cursed.

He quickened his pace and twitched his nose, intending to catch the disobedient subordinate on the spot by smelling the fragrance.

"No, Boss, this incense smells like the guest room. Could someone have broken into the secret passage?"

The guard behind him frowned and reported in a low voice vigilantly.

The head guard sneered upon hearing this: "Oh, it would be best if we could just capture a young man and take him to the Colosseum. I can even win the bet!"

After saying this, the leader of the guards quickened his pace.

The guard behind him nodded and scratched his itchy neck unconsciously.

The footsteps of the three people opposite were quite loud.

Pei Chun leaned against the hard earth wall, listening to the sound, and groped out three slender and hard bamboo pieces from his sleeves.

I kept muttering to myself, this is indeed a place where private soldiers can be easily hidden. They even use scent to identify enemies and friends.

She held her breath, and her two brothers behind her drew their weapons.

These were bamboo hidden weapons that Pei Chun specially found for his two brothers before he went out.

The footsteps are getting closer and closer, and in the darkness, everything is unknown.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Except for this corner, the rest of the passage is straight.

The three people on the opposite side were holding torches. As soon as the firelight shone over them, the four brothers and sisters would be exposed.

Sooner or later, I will have to come face to face with these three guards.

In this case, we have no choice but to strike first!

She gritted her teeth, no longer bothering to think about the fragrance, but listened attentively to the footsteps.

The same is true for the third and fourth brothers behind him.

The sound of cloth shoes stepping on the mud was getting closer and closer, accompanied by three heavy breathing sounds one after another.

There was also the dull sound of the long sword's scabbard hitting the edge of the earth wall as it walked.

Pei Chun opened his eyes and focused his gaze on the ground at the corner.

The yellow soil gradually reflected a small warm orange halo.

There were three figures walking cautiously.

The two sides are about to face each other at a critical moment.
