Chapter 214 Selection Night
The congested team finally came to the gate of the palace slowly. All those who came to select the princess were asked to get off the car. The palace guards would take over the vehicles. Of course, the maids, servants, and guards would be arranged by the guards to rest in the outermost part of the palace. Waiting for the selection of the princess to end.

Fang Jingzhe explained to Linda one last time, "Remember that the clothes on your body are very expensive, yes! Very! Expensive! You have to tell yourself this when you do anything, and then put the peas under the mattress before going to bed. Now Repeat the three sentences I gave you before!"

Linda didn't expect that at this time, she still needed to repeat those words by herself, but she just said after thinking about it for a while.

"I'm a real princess."

"I didn't sleep well at all?!"

"I didn't close my eyes almost all night! God knows what's under the bed? There's something hard hitting me and it's making me blue all over. It's horrible!"

Fang Jingzhe nodded, and then gave Linda a victory gesture, and asked her to follow the welcoming guards of the palace, and they were taken to the side hall with several other guards.

It is said that the side hall is actually just a large empty room.

There is nothing in the room, except for some oil painting decorations hanging on the wall, there are no tables, chairs and benches at all, let alone tea and snacks.

"This king is picky enough." Li Dongyang took out the unfinished biscuits from his pocket, put them in his mouth and complained while chewing.

Obviously, his unscrupulous eating appearance has attracted the attention of many people.

Fang Jingzhe frowned, and said in a low voice, "Restrain yourself, why would a serious servant eat here casually?"

"No, aren't we two guards? Of course the guards should be more casual."

Li Dongyang always has a lot of fallacies, of course Fang Jingzhe is not bad in this regard.

What a strange comparison.

After about a whole morning, some of the attendants were taken out by the soldiers, apparently because their candidate for the "princess" had failed.

Fortunately, no one has come to call Fang Jingzhe and the others. It seems that Linda should be doing well.

In the evening, there were less than 30 people left in the hall, which meant that the number of candidates for the "Princess" might have dropped to about ten.

In fact, these people who came to run for the "princess", like Linda, had four attendants. It is not bad for most of them to be accompanied by two people, and most of them came by themselves. No one wants to miss this great opportunity to turn a sparrow into a phoenix.

Then the entourage of each "princess" candidate was arranged in a room with two beds. As for the extra people, it depends on how you allocate them.

In addition, the palace provided a decent supper, which consisted of a few pieces of hard bread, a pot of water, a bowl of mashed beans, and a small dish of vegetables.

It's not enough for four people to eat this portion, but Fang Jingzhe and the others have stock.

In the dwarf's tree house villa before, Fang Jingzhe cooked all the fish, shrimps and crabs given by the river god, which is easy to store and convenient to eat at any time.

Tonight is the time to do it, so the few of them took a short rest after eating, waiting for nightfall.

……

At 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, normal people have already entered their dreams at this time, and fairy tale characters who go to bed early and get up early are naturally no exception.

Fang Jingzhe and Xing Yuan quietly walked out of the room, while Mu Nanxing and Li Dongyang stayed in the room to deal with possible guard inspections.

Of course, everyone thought it was impossible for the guards to patrol in the middle of the night, unless they were caught stealing something, so Fang Jingzhe divided them into two groups according to the firepower configuration.

Since the terrain inside the palace has not yet been fully confirmed, Fang Jingzhe and Xing Yuan have three places to check tonight.

Among them, the bedroom of the king and queen is the most likely place, but it is also the place where they are most likely to be exposed. Fang Jingzhe put this place at the end.

The first thing they want to go is the king's study, and it is more likely that the royal treasure house will be placed here.

The layout of the study here is similar to that of Li Moye's brother's study in the copy of the Dark Council. It is full of bookcases and books on the entire wall. The difference is that the space here is a little smaller.

Of course, the entire royal palace was not that big, and it may have occupied an area similar to that of a courtyard house with two or three entrances. It looks like there are quite a few rooms, but most of them are a little bit small.

There were a lot of decorative knives hanging in the study, Fang Jingzhe and Xing Yuan took them down and looked at them one by one, but none of them were the Huoyun dagger they were looking for.

However, here Fang Jingzhe saw a portrait of the king's family.

In the portrait, besides the king, there is also a sitting back, and a little girl standing in front of the king and queen.

Fang Jingzhe whispered: "Xing Yuan, come and see this."

"Captain, this is..."

When the two of them saw the portrait, they both subconsciously had a feeling that maybe the selection of "princess" this time was for the little girl in the portrait.

According to the plot in the film and television drama, there is a high probability that the little girl in the portrait is gone, and the queen is distraught, so the king thought of such a way to comfort her.

Of course, I don’t know if it’s reliable or not. After all, many things in fairy tales are ridiculous. For example, all animals in fairy tales can talk.

"This is a clue. You can see that the little girl above has red hair. Maybe Linda can use this advantage to choose her."

Fang Jingzhe remembered that most of the princesses who participated in the election during the day had long blond hair, and some were pink or blue, like red-haired candidates. Linda seemed to be the only one.

Xing Yuan nodded, and then said: "There seems to be no compartment or secret room here. It seems that the treasure house can only be in the king's bedroom or basement."

There is only one entrance to the basement, and they don't know anything about the basement.

"Let's go to the bedroom first. I asked Nan Xing to prepare some sleeping pills. I will give them some sleeping pills. I believe there will be no problem as long as they don't make too much noise."

When Fang Jingzhe and Xing Yuan touched the king's bedroom, they found a figure approaching sneakily outside the bedroom.

The figure crept to the door of the bedroom, easily knocked down the guard at the door, and then dodged into the bedroom.

Fang Jingzhe and Xing Yuan looked at each other, and hurried forward, took off the armor of the guards, and then tied up the two guards and stuffed them into an empty room next to them.

When the two came out of the room, they had already dressed up as guards.

Now that some people have gone to the bedroom, they plan to sit on the sidelines.

But you must not lie on the ground, otherwise the patrolling guards will find the problem after a while, and they plan to lean against the door.

About ten minutes later, the man came out of the bedroom, but she seemed to sense something was wrong as soon as she came out. Didn't the guard just fall to the ground by him?Why are both of them leaning against the wall at this moment.

She didn't feel that the guard had woken up, but felt that there were people who thought the same as her from time to time, but she moved faster, so in order not to alarm other people, she subdued the guard.

She looked up and down, and the two guards seemed to be dozing off standing up.

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, Fang Jingzhe and Xing Yuan directly held her down on the left and right, and of course covering her mouth was indispensable to prevent her from screaming loudly.

Just as the other party was about to take out the props to resist, Fang Jingzhe said in a low voice: "You are the one riding the elephant, right? You are not afraid of attracting guards and you can scream as hard as you want. Let me let go of your mouth now, do you understand?"

Feeling the other party's nod, Fang Jingzhe let go of the hand covering the other party's mouth, but Xing Yuan didn't let go.

"Since they are all players, tell your companions to let go too." The woman's tone was careless, as if she was sure that Fang Jingzhe would let him go.

Fang Jingzhe asked back: "What are you doing in the king's bedroom?"

"You don't want to talk here, do you?"

"Take her back to the room." Fang Jingzhe thought about letting Xing Yuan take the woman back to their room first, and then he went in to find the Huoyun dagger.

But as soon as the words fell, the woman said: "What you are looking for is the Huoyun dagger? That dagger is not inside."
