The black-bellied prince is soft and cute

Chapter 227: True and False (3)
Chu Li was quite familiar with the terrain in the palace. She walked quickly all the way, bypassed several palaces, passed through the burned Tai Chi Hall, and soon arrived outside a magnificent palace. Judging from the situation, it was exactly what Chu Li wanted. It's the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

At this time, the Hall of Mental Cultivation was surrounded by guards like iron barrels, the palace lanterns were hung high, and the candles were brightly lit. In addition to the imperial guards and the Habayashi Army standing around, there were also several teams of golden-armored guards patrolling back and forth. People, even if a fly flies in, they will be stopped.

Chu Li took Shui Qianxun and stopped some distance away from the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Instead of continuing forward, he turned to the left, stepped on the path, and walked around to the left back of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. It stopped behind a flower bed.

This place is on the outskirts of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and there are fewer guards, but there are a few figures not far away, swaying past from time to time.

Chu Li took Shui Qianxun with her, and the moment the figure disappeared, she kicked the brick on the side of the flower bed with the toe of her boot.Shui Qianxun only felt that his feet were empty, and he slid down, but Chu Li kept holding her waist, and the momentum of the fall was offset by his luck, and the two of them quickly landed on the ground lightly.

Chu Li took out a string of pearls from her bosom, illuminating the dark space.

Shui Qianxun could see clearly that she was actually in a secret passage now.Looking at the colored square bricks on the tunnel, it can be inferred that this tunnel is not newly dug, but has a history of hundreds of years, and it is not known when it was dug out by the previous dynasty.

It is not surprising that there are secret passages in the palace. These are for the emperor and queen to temporarily hide and escape in case of any accident in the palace. It is just that after so many dynasties, after wars and vicissitudes, how many secret passages are there in the palace? I can't tell.

But why did Chu Li know the secret way here?
Not long after walking along the secret passage, the terrain began to slope upwards. Shui Qianxun sketched the location of the secret passage in his mind, and reckoned that they were already under the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Finally, a cylindrical space appeared in front of it. The cylindrical shape went straight up, and it looked a bit like a pillar.Shui Qianxun touched the wall of the column with his hand and found that it was made of pig iron.

Chu Li and Shui Qianxun stood in the center of the pillar. The cylindrical space was extremely narrow. When two people stood inside, there was not much space, as if two people were squeezed together side by side.

Shui Qianxun's nose was filled with the rich fragrance of Chu Li's body, and she couldn't help but despise Chu Li again, a big man with such a scent, pervert, sissy!

Chu Li took a picture of the pearl string in his hand on the pillar wall, as if he was looking for some mark, then he reached out and wiped the pillar wall in front of him, and two small holes not much bigger than the tip of a needle suddenly appeared on the pillar wall. A faint light shone through the hole.

Shui Qianxun felt curious, put his eyes on one of the holes, and looked out.

Looking at it this way, she was almost startled. She saw that there was a huge room outside, which was magnificently furnished. There were two rows of wide chairs inside, and there were people sitting on the wide chairs, all of them with expressionless faces.

The two people sitting on the top left and right were Huangfu Xun and Huangfu Yi, and looking down, they looked familiar, they were the princes who had appeared in the Imperial Garden that day.

Behind the wide chair stood the little eunuch who was serving the prince.

On the other side of the room, some men in official uniforms were standing or sitting. Looking at the clothes, there were both civil and military officials.

Shui Qianxun held her breath, she didn't even dare to breathe, she already knew where this was, this house was obviously the outer hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the place where she was was in the pillars of the room.

The person who designed this secret tunnel at the beginning was really thoughtful. Those who hide in the cast iron pillars can see the situation outside clearly, but they will not be discovered.

"Brother Xi Wang, how is your father's injury? I want to go in and see your father." The young man's voice sounded, with a bit of panic in his tone.

Shui Qianxun was somewhat familiar with the voice, and looked at the prince who was speaking, and saw that he had a handsome face and picturesque eyebrows and eyes, it was Huangfu Yan.He used to pester her in Yujing Garden to hear the story of the Sect Master of Tianzong, so among the many princes, except for Huangfu Xun and Huangfu Yi, Shui Qianxun had a deep impression on him.

"The imperial doctor said that the father needs to rest, and now is not the time to visit the father." Huangfu's cold voice revealed a trace of fatigue.

"The guards in the palace are strictly guarded. Hmph, the assassin must have colluded with the inside and outside, and I don't know who it is. If he wants to attack the father, he really has the guts of a bear!" Huangfuyan's tone became anxious.

"When father wakes up, I will make up my own mind." Huangfu said coldly.

The princes suddenly fell silent.

After Shui Qianxun had a clear look at the situation in the hall, his gaze stayed on Huangfu Xun. He saw that his eyes were slightly closed, and there was no expression on his jade-like face.

How can we find a way to warn Huangfu?
