Chapter 113 Tips from the Secret Building

The imperial city has a palace ban, and after the key is released, it is not allowed to enter and leave casually.

Of course, now the harem is controlled by Concubine Shu. Even if the key is not released, it is normal daytime. She would not casually agree to let the third prince Yue Mingxiao take someone in.

But who is Yue Mingxiao?

A master of martial arts, the third prince of the Yue Kingdom, and the second head of the Jianghu bandit gang, he knows everything about the imperial palace and has internal secrets!No matter how tight the guards of the imperial guards are, will it be a problem to go around quietly and break in?

As for Zhou Yao Feng Jiang, there is no need to worry, Feng Jiang's martial arts are far above him!

The few people regarded the palace as nothing, and smoothly bypassed row after row of guards, patrolling, and arrived at the Mingyue Hall of Concubine Xiao.

Thanks to Concubine Shu for arranging this remote palace for Concubine Xiao, the place is big enough, as long as there is no loud noise, even if all the rooms are brightly lit, it will be difficult for others to find it.

"I found it, this is it!"

Yue Mingxiao stared at the big soft pillow like a square, frowning tightly.

Why is this thing a clue?

Feng Jiang took a look, and found that it was just a pillow for sitting on. The fabric and pattern were very regular, nothing special.

"If what's special isn't the thing itself, it's the meaning of the thing." Zhou Yao's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked Yue Mingxiao, "Do you recognize this Yinzhen?"

Yue Mingxiao nodded.

"My mother is good at everything, the only thing is that she is very nostalgic. Some things she likes very much, and she refuses to throw them away when they are old. She will renovate them by herself and take them out for use. My mother said that this pillow was originally her sister. The empress gave it to her."

"The fabric is easy to wear and old, and the cotton is easy to be old and easy to collapse. Every spring and two seasons, my mother will take it apart personally, fill in new cotton, and replace the cover with a new one. The summer one is thinner and cooler, and the winter one is thicker. Keep warm. Year after year, I don’t know how many times this pillow has been changed inside and out, and it’s no longer the same as when the Empress Empress gave it to her..."

Other than that, nothing special.

Yue Mingxiao still looked bewildered.

He took the lead pillow apart, but still found nothing.

Zhou Yao's nose twitched: "This Yin pillow is very fragrant, and it doesn't smell like the other side."

"It's peach blossom water. Although my mother likes to paint plum blossoms, she likes the smell of peach blossoms the most on weekdays. If you use pillows and cotton wool, you must smell the fragrance of peach blossoms."

Zhou Yao narrowed his eyes: "Peach Blossom?"

Yue Mingxiao heard his hidden voice, and jumped up suddenly: "There are many plum blossoms in my mother's room, but peach blossoms are not common!"

He hurriedly looked for something related to Peach Blossom.

There are not many, except for the powder box, which is just an interstitial screen.

The screen is exquisitely embroidered on both sides, the pattern on it is Spring River Plumbing, and peach trees and peach blossoms are embroidered on the corners.

"Because of my mother Ximei, this plug-in screen has been stored in the cabinet and has never been used."

Zhou Yao's eyes drooped, and the bottom of his eyes was even brighter: "I don't like it, I don't want to use this plug-in screen, I can store it in the warehouse, why should I put it in the cabinet in the room and keep it as a spare?"

Is it really a backup, or is there some other purpose?

Yue Mingxiao's eyes brightened, and he violently tore down the screen frame...

Feng Jiang on one side was still ready to help, and when he saw this, he took his hand back and wrapped it around Zhou Yao's waist.

There is really something in the interstitial screen.

"Look, Zhou Yao!"

Close to the peach blossoms, there is an extremely thin piece of silk hidden. The painting uses silver lines to trace shallow patterns, and it matches the peach trees and peach blossoms everywhere...

The composition of the picture is very ingenious, if you don't open the frame and observe carefully, you can't see it at all!

Zhou Yao narrowed his eyes: "Take it out, be gentle."

Facts show that Zhou Yao's reminder is correct.

The silk is very thin and soft. If you don't notice its corners carefully and pull it lightly, it will fall apart, and you can't even put it together.

Yue Ming Xiao held his breath, put all his strength into the softest and lightest, but his fingers were still a little thick, and he couldn't take out the whole piece of silk.

Zhou Yao sighed: "I'll do it."

He is thinner and shorter than the two people present, and his hands are naturally a size smaller, so he has an advantage.

No matter how careful he was in the end, he couldn't take it out. At least he could rely on his memory, take a closer look, memorize the things on it, and analyze it later...

Zhou Yao also breathed lightly, and moved his slender fingers dexterously.

It went smoothly, the silk was not damaged, and the whole sheet was taken down.

Thinly padded with black velvet and unfolded, the lines covered with silver thread are clearly visible at a glance.

Very simple line composition, connected together like a painting, but also like...

"The map of this palace!"

Zhou Yao found a brush and changed the line style from freehand brushwork to realism. After drawing the picture, the three of them saw it, and it was really the Mingyue Palace!

The most important marked point in the picture... The three of them searched for it, and found a hidden cabinet on the back wall of Duobao Pavilion, and opened it with the key they found. Inside was a box full of paintings.

A picture with words.

Yue Mingxiao was a little excited, the box fell to the ground without holding it steady, and the paintings were scattered everywhere.

Zhou Yao saw such a picture.

A doll with a small bandage on her head, wearing a small bellyband, and a small golden bell tied to her ankles with a red string, is swinging on the table, holding back her energy, blushing, with tears in her eyes, staring at the distance stretching out. The hand that comes out seems to be looking at the enemy.

There is a beautiful font written on the side: the baby is learning to walk for the first time, shaking like a little duck, cute.

There is another picture, it is still the little doll, who has grown up a bit and gained a lot of weight, uh, probably just because of the thick clothes, the little face is covered with dust, and he got up from the ground in doubt.

There are words on the side: why does it not hurt when you fall down?Because you wear too much baby!

Zhou Yao took two steps forward, his eyes touched the left and right, it was still the doll, growing up slowly, at different ages.

The three-year-old doll fights, with bruises on his face, but he is stubborn and doesn't speak.Word cloud: Seeing old at the age of three, seeing that you will only fight hard, mother will know that you will not grow up.I like to do things so much, why don't I learn some martial arts?At least you can protect yourself.

The five-year-old boy knelt in front of the temple in the cold wind with his steamed bun face on his face.Word cloud: calculated again.The baby does not understand, the mother understands.Mother can't help you kill the enemy, but it's still possible to calculate and go back...

Six or seven-year-old dolls, wearing filial piety clothes, sleep in the mourning hall in a daze.Word cloud: My sister is dead, no one cares about it, only the king of Min gave some things... It doesn't matter, mother will live well, take my sister's share, and bring the baby.

The **-year-old child had a fleshy face, looked out of the screen worriedly, and handed over the little bun in his hand.Word cloud: The baby said today that he wants to protect his mother.Although it is very touching, the baby is still too cute!When will the baby grow up?

Ten-year-olds sulking at the wall, pointing their butts off-screen.Word cloud: Baby, don't be sad, no one stipulates that a prince must be a champion.People are born in different ways, some like rice, some like noodles, it really doesn't matter if you can't read well, mother doesn't want you to be promising, just want you to be safe and happy to grow old.

The back view of an eleven or twelve-year-old boy riding a galloping horse is extremely chic.Word cloud: The sky is high and the clouds are wide, baby, you will eventually find who you are and your own value.Your future is not in this suffocating palace.Strange...mother doesn't feel heartache.

The boy's back is getting stronger and stronger, showing strength and momentum, showing persistence and firmness.Word cloud: baby, you are the best, mother is proud of you!

……

There are so many paintings one by one, recorded from the birth of Yue Mingxiao to recent years.

From the fat baby crying, seeing the crying tongue, laughing out the glutinous teeth, as if owning the whole world, to the teenager suffering and hatred, awkward and rebellious, doubting himself, to the final growth, being strong...

Concubine Xiao recorded Yue Mingxiao's entire growth process.

She loves her child very much. She is in a deep palace and the environment is not very beautiful, but she doesn't point out what to do with the child. She forces the child to grow up, what he must learn, how he must behave, and give back to her in turn.She respects the child's character, development, and even guides the child's instincts, so that he can live a more comfortable life and grow up better.

All the suffering, all the hardships, she bears it by herself.

She doesn't impose any expectations on her children, she just pays for everything, seeing her children grow up, no matter what they do, they are tough, strong, and responsible good people, she is happy and satisfied, and for this And proud.

Such a mother...

Zhou Yao couldn't help his eyes flushed: I want it too.

His biological mother passed away too early, leaving him with almost no memory, even his face can't be clearly remembered, and what he remembered was just the feeling of a gentle hand patting his back.He didn't even remember what that hand looked like, but only remembered the faint smell, which was sandalwood from the palace.

If she was still alive...she would definitely love herself so much.

It was rare for Feng Jiang to be a little moved, he had such a 'mother' before.

Jiang's teaching and training to him, although a little more 'violent' elements, but also because he is too bear, deep down, Jiang, like Concubine Xiao, is a very gentle person.

Because of the Jiang family, there is today's Feng Jiang.Upright, strong, and upright.

And Yue Mingxiao, the majestic second head of the Lingtian Gang, was known for his cruel and vicious tongue, and never lenient in dealing with others. Now he can't restrain himself, crying into tears while holding the box of Shenghua.

Feng Jiang took a few deep breaths, waved away his emotions, hugged Zhou Yao into his arms, patted his back, and comforted him silently.

He knew that this little crying bag was bound to cry.

Look at how miserable the third prince is crying, look at the candles flickering on the table, and then look outside the hall...

Feng Jiang pondered, after tonight, there will definitely be anecdotes and rumors of 'Mingyue Palace is haunted' in the palace of Yue Kingdom.

……

Everyone calmed down, and it was already a stick of incense.

Pack up the paintings and arrange them in order. The last one should be a recent painting.

There is no figure of Yue Mingxiao in the painting, only a round moon is drawn, and there seems to be a human figure in the moon, which is similar to Yue Mingxiao.

Probably because we haven't seen each other recently.

The words next to it are also very straightforward, saying that if you can find these things and find that your mother is missing, don't be afraid. In this regard, your mother is much better than you.Be good, live a good life, don't let your mother down.

The language is very narrow, and love seems to be able to break through the drawing paper.

The three of them seemed to see the open-minded and cheerful Concubine Xiao wink mischievously at them.

"So my mother... really made some preparations, she must be fine, right?"

Although he had been told, Yue Mingxiao, as a son, couldn't make up his mind.

Zhou Yao strengthened his memory, nodded his head, and said in a firm voice, "Yes, your mother will be fine."

"Compared to this—" Feng Jiang narrowed his eyes and mentioned something, "Shouldn't we pay more attention to one thing? In these paintings, King Min is mentioned."

Concubine Xiao is cautious, she can hide her son's growth diary so deeply, she will definitely not give any good clues to tell others where she went, but the place where King Min is mentioned in the painting is very interesting.

When Empress Yue, that is, Princess Xiao's sister, passed away, no one cared about it, only King Min gave something.

If there is really a grudge, why would King Min send something here?

Really giving something must be ironic and ridiculing, it is impossible for Concubine Xiao to write it in such a tone.

Zhou Yao nodded, indeed, he also thought of this.

Yue Mingxiao found the painting, frowned and walked away: "So there is no enmity between my mother and King Min?"

……

The three spent most of the night in the harem.

Regardless of the grievances and grievances of the previous generation, the clue index pillow brought the three of them only the above information, and if they searched further, they couldn't find anything.

They had no choice but to retreat temporarily, waiting for the second round of reminders from Tianjilou.

Tianji Building seems to be watching the progress all the time, knowing what their results are, and the second reminder will arrive soon.

It's a bit weird to come here this time, it was delivered with Kongming lanterns!

This early in the morning, not to mention the obvious target, the distance, and the various difficulties of fixed-point teleportation, in order to prevent others from tracing, this effort is enough...

The three of Zhou Yao didn't sleep for a long time, but this incident has already dragged them out of bed.

This time Wang Jia was also there.

Yesterday, he followed Heng Wang for a long time, and he didn't participate in the night's affairs. He has been deeply regretful, and this time he has to go together no matter what!

He snatched the note and was the first to see the words clearly.

The second thing that Tianji Building reminded was a treasure in the palace of Yue Kingdom, which was inlaid with gold and jade.

"Jade Ruyi? Gold inlaid? Is it expensive?"

When the thief's thinking came online, Wang Jia tilted his head, thought for a moment, then shook his head to ask Yue Mingxiao: "This gold inlaid with jade is wishful, do you know?"

Yue Mingxiao nodded: "Generally speaking, if you want to have a color for a jade ruyi, you must either find a colored jade to match the carver, or just take the jade head and find other materials for the handle, such as ebony wood and other inlays. It is very rare to use pure gold to inlay a whole piece of jade Ruyi, there is only one in the Yue Palace, and it is at Concubine Shu's place."

He told Zhou Yaofeng Jiang about the history of that jade Ruyi.

Concubine Shu can pamper the harem, strangle other people and even their mothers to death, and help her son ascend the throne.

It may sound a bit harsh to say this, but if a woman can do it well and do it well, especially in front of the king, she is really invincible.

This gold-encrusted jade Ruyi was originally a plan for her to rule out dissidents, but in the end it hit her right, and she seemed to be very prosperous.She is also very upset occasionally, for example, when she meets a smart person, she can't figure it out, she will miss it, and there will be a little trouble, but every time as long as the gold inlaid with jade is there, she seems to be able to turn the bad luck into good luck, and everything goes smoothly.

Not showing once, not showing twice, three times and four times...

How can there be so many accidents?

Concubine Shu is a little superstitious, so she can't do without this gold inlaid jade wishful.

She manages this thing by herself, and she has to keep it in front of her eyes every day, and no one else is allowed to touch it, not even her most trusted confidant lady.

Feng Jiang clicked his tongue: "So, we're going to visit the palace of Empress Dowager Shu?"

The whole world knows about the matter between Concubine Shu and the regent. Now that the old emperor is dead and the little emperor is still young, they probably don't know how to write the word 'avoiding people', so they may be hooking up in the palace to look for it. Excitement, what if it happens to me?

What a hot eye!

Wang Jia and Zhou Yao looked at each other with meaningful expressions.

It's a bit eye-catching, but it's also more exciting. If I get first-hand information about this, I will brag to others on the road in the future... Hehehe.

Yue Mingxiao looked upright: "Although I don't really want to go, but I'm sorry, this encounter may be inevitable."

It was broad daylight, and it was not good for them to sneak into the palace, but with the clues, the four of them ignored other things and began to prepare for action immediately.

Even if you can't enter the palace, you can even get closer!

The third prince can't do anything else, so it's okay to send everyone into the palace!

It's just that none of the four of them expected that Feng Jiang's words would become a prophecy today, and they really watched a live version...

But it's too early to say.

Zhou Yao bestowed Jiang and Wang Jia, and they both changed into neat clothes, and then followed the third prince, Yue Mingxiao, and swaggered into the palace with the prince's jade card.

Going to a place where no one is around, several people assign tasks. The third prince has an obvious goal. As a disturbing figure, he will draw the attention of the palace people. Feng Jiang takes Zhou Yao to watch the wind and solve some troubles that may arise around. Wang Jia Well, they use their own advantages - good looks, good manners, good gossip, and inquire about all kinds of news.

Soon, the four of them found where the gold inlaid jade Ruyi is now.

"God help me, this thing is in the Tai Chi Hall today!"

Tai Chi Hall, at the front of the palace, behind the main hall where the emperor of Yue Kingdom handles government affairs, is generally used as the emperor's living hall, not counted as the harem, the third prince can go there!

Although that place is a bit sensitive, it contains a lot of military affairs...

Anyway, you can go!

As Wang Jia spoke, her eyebrows danced with joy, and her little eyebrows almost flew out: "I heard that the government affairs have been busy these few days, and the regent has worked hard, so he didn't leave the palace. The things belonging to Emperor Shu are still in the Tai Chi Hall, hehehe..."

Needless to say, he must have taken the opportunity to fool around!

Now that there is news, don't worry about others, the four of them set off immediately to the Tai Chi Hall!

"The gold inlaid jade Ruyi should be in the side hall. The round-faced little maid said she saw it during the wine sweep this morning, and it was on the altar—"

As they spoke, several people followed the route of avoiding people and walked to the side of the Great Pole Hall.

Not to mention Wang Jia, everyone stopped in their tracks, staring at the scene in front of them with wide eyes, speechless.
