Jinghong Tower

Chapter 148 You are Lan Ruo

The head chamberlain was so frightened that he shivered and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, there is no key to your private treasury. I really really really don't have one!"

He Ran came over and when he heard these words, he glanced at the bloody head waiter and then looked at the urine leaking from his trousers, knowing that this man must not be lying.

She stepped forward, put the sword she had snatched from the deputy guard captain against the man's neck, and said, "Tell me carefully, how does your prince open his private treasury on a daily basis?"

The head waiter shook his head: "Yes, there is a mechanism, but I don't know how to open it."

He has been in charge of the prince's daily life for a while and where the prince's things are kept. He knows better than the prince himself. He has really paid attention to the key to the private treasury. It is true that he has not. He has been in the palace since he was seven years old. These things are obvious. There are many, and you can guess that there is a mechanism without thinking deeply.

He Ran said: "Let's go, take me to your prince's private treasury."

The head of the chamberlain trembled, "Go, it will be betraying the prince, if you don't go, your life will be at risk."

He Ran chuckled softly: "You must have saved a lot of money over the years. Find a small temple and spend some money. Maybe you can get a prison temple. It's not much better than serving people here."

Temples have always been the best place for wealthy chamberlains to retire.

They will leave the palace one day, and they will be old by then. Instead of adopting other people's children to support themselves in their old age, they might as well donate some money to the temple, not to mention their old age, and if they worship many gods, they will be able to live in the next life. With blessing, isn't that much better than leaving money to other people's children?

He Ran knew that the head waiter was shaken, so he said: "Forget it, let's kill him. Others may know what you know."

The head maid suddenly panicked: "I'll take you there, but you have to let me go."

"Okay." He Ran said it all.

"You guys come with me!"

The servants were missing two ounces of meat. That area was not very healthy. Urine leakage was common. Today, after being so frightened, they peeed even more. Even at night, He Ran could still see this person. One step at a time, peeing on the footprints.

But He Ran didn't expect that she would return to her old place.

King Jin's private treasury was actually in his study.

He Ran looked at the ground. The deputy captain with a bloody head was hiding somewhere. There was only a pool of blood on the ground.

The head maid lifted up a corner of the Persian carpet on the floor, revealing the bluestone underneath.

These bluestones were polished until they were as lustrous as jade, and the texture could still be seen faintly. The head chamberlain said to He Ran: "I have seen the prince lift up the carpet. The private treasury should be here."

He Ran looked at the bluestones, and she remembered the master who taught her the mechanism.

The secret room where Cai Ying was hiding was very exquisitely designed. At that time, she thought of that master. When she thought about it later, she felt more and more that it was his handiwork.

If it is there, then where is this private treasury.

Thinking of this, He Ran's eyes wandered around the study room. She was quite familiar with the master's style.

Suddenly, her eyes fell on a bronze crane.

Everything in the Treasure Pavilion has been looted long ago, but this bronze crane is an exception.

This thing was as tall as a person, and there was a copper base one foot long and half a foot wide underneath. Such a heavy thing could not fit in the big pocket, so it was not taken away.

He Ran walked up to Tonghe and looked up and down. There were gems embedded in Tonghe's eyes, so Master He did a very shameful thing. She used a dagger to pry out the two gems, and then she I saw the mouth of the bronze crane again.

She stretched out her hand and picked at it. The crane's beak was actually movable. He Ran put the dagger in. Ha, there was a tongue inside. The tongue was elastic. Well, she read it right. This was his style. So He Ran pressed his tongue with a dagger and heard a squeaking sound. The bluestone on the ground slowly opened, revealing a staircase.

Stairs again!

There are lights below that illuminate the stairs clearly.

There's no one inside, so why are there lights?

Without saying a word, He Ran kicked the head waiter down. If there was anyone with a cold intention, just call him out.

There was a sound of rolling down the stairs below. The stairs were not long, but the head waiter also fell for a long time before he could get up. He was moaning incessantly.

Hu Chang took a step forward: "I'll do it!"

With that said, he rushed down the stone steps ahead of He Ran. After a moment, Hu Zhan said: "There is no danger."

He Ran quickly walked down. As soon as he went down, He Ran was startled. He saw two huge pearls inlaid on the top of the private vault. It turned out that what he saw from the top was not lights, but pearls. These were two pearls. Night Pearl.

He Ran had seen the Luminous Pearl before, but this was the first time he had seen such a big one.

Needless to say, pick it off and take it with you when you leave.

There were more than forty large boxes neatly arranged in the private vault. He Ran used his sword to split the lock on one of the boxes. The boxes were all filled with jewelry and jades.

The same goes for other boxes. He Ran thinks that there are still fewer people coming from them.

"Call more people to come over and move as many as they can!"

He Ran brought a hundred people, and at this time, all the guards and gatekeepers of the palace had been replaced by his own people. As for the guards who were already weak, they were killed and tied up, and the same was true for the internal servants.

Now, He Ran asked Hu Chang to lead fifty people to carry the boxes, while she led people to escort all the maids and wives who were still alive in the palace to Xiuyuan.

King Jin's killers are all women.

He Ran had warned his men early on not to underestimate the maids and women in the palace.

Rather than letting these maids and women howl like ghosts, it would be better to lock them in that secret passage first. There are ventilation holes there so they can't die.

He Ran personally directed these people to be sent into the tunnel. Seeing that only the last dozen or so people were left, a maid suddenly took action. A dagger appeared in her hand and stabbed He Ran directly in the back of the heart.

He Ran was always on guard. It was as if there were eyes on the back of his head. He turned sideways and the dagger in the maid's hand pierced the air. However, He Ran turned too hard on this side and one side of the cloth covering her face fell off. Only the other side is hanging on the face.

She didn't care about finishing, and stabbed the maid with the long sword in her hand, but at the critical moment, she saw shock in the maid's eyes.

He Ran's sword stopped in mid-air, and she heard the maid say in surprise: "Lan Ruo?"

He Ran's heart pounded, and her mind flashed back to the moment she had just been reborn. When she opened her eyes, she was buried alive. The only memory of the original owner was that she was placed on the back of a horse and ran wildly.

The sword in He Ran's hand thrust out again, the tip of the sword touching the maid's throat: "Who do you think I am?"

"Lan Ruo, you white-eyed wolf, you betrayed the prince, you will die a good death!"

Before she finished speaking, the maid raised her neck to the tip of the sword, and with a pop, the tip of the sword pierced her throat.
