Chapter 159

The secret passage from the Prince Regent's study is very spacious, like an underground palace, and the surrounding firelight illuminates the inside brightly.

Occasionally, I would meet a few patrolling guards, and the phantom behind Su Ying could also use a hidden weapon to subdue the enemy, and then took out the corpse powder to destroy the corpse and wipe it out, disappearing without a trace.

After the matter is over, the hidden weapon will be taken back without leaving a trace.

The further you go in, there is a strong pungent smell similar to saltpeter and sulfur.

Even if Su Ying covered her mouth and nose, the smell still remained undiminished.

The Phantom took out the handkerchief dipped in the liquid medicine prepared in advance and handed it to Su Ying. Su Ying covered her mouth and nose with the handkerchief, but she couldn't smell the smell at all.

Going straight along the tunnel, I found three more forks in the road. Based on my intuition, Su Ying went straight to the fork on the right, and took off the veil. The pungent smell made people breathless.

Covering his mouth and nose, he continued to walk forward. The inside became more and more spacious, and there were even rows of huge alchemy furnaces distributed on the side, but there were no roads around.

Su Ying frowned, could it be that she went the wrong way?

However, the smell here is obviously the strongest?

Let Phantom open the alchemy furnace, but there is nothing inside.

No, there is some thick smoke faintly here, as if coming from the gaps around it.

There should be a secret door here, presumably they sensed something was wrong and sealed their crimes.

After thinking about it, Su Ying immediately asked Phantom, "What's above this tunnel?"

Phantom replied without thinking, "A street not far from the palace."

"Are there many people?"

"Not much."

Su Ying nodded, "Then take the gunpowder and throw it into the alchemy furnace and explode it!"

The two phantoms immediately followed suit.

The power of gunpowder is placed in the tunnel, and it is indeed not easy to blow up the tunnel, but if it is placed in the alchemy furnace, the power will be magnified ten times. Once the alchemy furnace is exploded, this section of the tunnel will definitely be destroyed.

Su Ying retreated a lot, and with a loud "bang", the whole underground palace trembled and shook, and a gap actually exploded in the top of the tunnel.

Once the pungent smell diffused, the nose immediately became much more comfortable, but the dust and smoke inside was too thick, which still made people uncomfortable.

The loud noise not only blasted open the secret doors on both sides, but also attracted many people over. Seeing the tunnel inside and the pungent smell, the people suddenly seemed to have exploded, and had different opinions.

"What is this for? Oh my god, why is there a tunnel inside? What kind of smell is this? It smells so bad!"

"What is that? It seems to be an alchemy furnace. Why is there such a thing in the tunnel leading to the palace? Could it be..."

"Recently, many people have lost their children. Could it be related to this?"

"It's so hateful, I didn't expect our fish and meat to be from the imperial court!"

……

The matter finally alarmed the Prince Regent's party, and then sent the Leng family army to arrest the people who knew the truth. Unexpectedly, at this time, there was another fire from the Mizong hunting ground, and the whole mountain was ablaze.

The tunnel was filled with angry voices from the people.

Su Ying let the Phantom blow up the tunnel in the alchemy furnace, and the secret door next door was also blown open, and the children brought from all over were locked inside. The common people are filled with righteous indignation.

Some people couldn't stand it even more, and took the lead in rushing in to rescue the child.

When the regent and General Leng Jue came with their people, what they saw was a scene of rioting by a group of people.

Seeing that the situation was as she thought, Su Ying immediately breathed a sigh of relief and walked back. Unexpectedly, a group of armored guards with knives rushed in at this time.

The large number is obviously not something the two phantoms behind Su Ying can compete with.

But this time the phantom didn't resist, but was captured by them obediently.

Go all the way along the long tunnel, and then take a section of stone stairs, and soon you will come to a gorgeous and magnificent bedroom.

"Who is so daring to destroy Ai's underground palace!"

In front of the golden bead curtain, a voice of reprimand with a heavy sense of oppression came out.

The bead curtain was lifted, Su Ying raised her head, and saw that sitting at the head was a gorgeous old woman wearing a purple palace dress embroidered with longevity patterns. She wore a cumbersome and colorful headdress on her head, showing her unusual status.

As soon as the words were finished, a woman in the same rich clothes came down from the top. She looked at her in disbelief, and then reached out and took it off, tearing off her human skin mask.

"You...it's you!" Leng Qinghua stared at her in disbelief and pointed at her.

Su Ying was puzzled, she didn't know her, how could she know herself?
The Empress Dowager Leng also looked at Leng Qinghua suspiciously.

"Auntie, it's because of her that that villain started fighting with Aotian and Leng Li. I never expected that she would chase after the palace and know the secret way. The relationship between this girl and that villain must be extraordinary!"

Leng Qinghua vowed firmly.

When the Empress Dowager Leng heard this, her eyes suddenly became sharp, "If that's the case, then arrest her and put her in the dungeon!"

"Wait!"

The Empress Dowager Leng and Leng Qinghua looked up when they heard the sound, Qi Mohan had already strode into the bedroom, behind him was a row of guards holding swords and wearing armor, all of them were full of energy and had an extraordinary aura.

Su Ying also happened to look over, and Yu Chen'er followed him like a shadow, blinking at her happily.

Su Ying nodded and smiled at her, and then stood up properly.

The moment Qi Mohan saw Su Ying, a smile appeared on his handsome face, he knew she would come, but he didn't expect it to be, and now he felt relieved.

Seeing that Su Ying didn't look at him, Qi Mohan thought she was a little restrained in front of so many people, and just wanted to solve it quickly and take her back to his bedroom to have a good talk.

"Evil! You can break into Ai's bedroom at will, and there are no rules. Get out!"

The Empress Dowager Leng was already in a bad mood because of the destruction of the underground palace, so Qi Mohan barged in so defiantly that the Empress Dowager Leng dropped the glass cup she had in hand angrily.

Qi Mohan smiled instead of anger, raised the corners of his lips playfully and took a few steps forward, stood in front of Su Ying, looked directly at Queen Mother Leng,
"Sorry, the evil in your eyes has been growing up outside the palace. There are no rules. I hope the Queen Mother will take care of it."

"You... How dare you speak to Ai's family like this, it's really treasonous!" The Empress Dowager Leng pointed at him and panted heavily.

Seeing this, Qi Mohan was still furious and said with a poisonous tongue,
"It's the empress dowager, if you want to call me Nie Zhan, I will do what I am supposed to do. In order to save the empress dowager's face, the queen mother should feel relieved. I haven't been able to find a wife for three years!"

Yu Chen'er laughed when she heard this, the Queen Mother Leng was panting heavily, her eyes kept rolling upwards, she obviously couldn't hold it back as if she was going to faint, Leng Qinghua hurriedly supported her, and gave Qi Mohan a vicious look , and ordered people to ask for the imperial physician as soon as possible.

Suddenly remembered something again, Leng Qinghua stared at Qi Mohan in disbelief, "You... Didn't you take your best effort? It's only been a few days, you'll be fine?"

"I can't get the old hen to make up for my painstaking efforts. Seeing how nourished the queen mother has been in the past few days, I know that I made the right choice that day. It's better not to invite this imperial doctor, just kill an old hen to make up for it. Maybe I can rejuvenate my old age and stay young forever!"
