The fifth lady against the sky

Chapter 194
Li Zhande stood behind Xiahou Litian, persuading him: "Your Majesty, after ten years have passed, you should be relieved. Didn't you take good care of Concubine Xue's child? Concubine Xue will rest in peace in the spirit of the sky."

Xiahou Litian shook his head and left Xuewu Palace.The image of the lonely back is several years old in an instant.

Seeing Xiahou Litian, Li Xiangyun said coldly to the guard who was about to drag Yudie away: "I want to have a conversation with Yudie."

Even though her feet were grounded, the majesty of the imperial concubine remained undiminished, and the guards retreated to a distance, leaving only the imperial concubine's people around. Li Xiangyun walked up to Yudie, whose eyes were dull like a puppet, and said heartbrokenly: "You are my palace." The person who was single-handed was framed by that little bitch Feng Muxie today, and I will definitely avenge you. After you leave, I will take good care of your brother in secret."

When Yudie heard Li Xiangyun mentioning her younger brother, her eyes were scattered, and she said calmly, "Thank you, ma'am."

Yudie originally thought that after planning carefully in the palace for such a long time, she would no longer have to think about other little maids being slaughtered by everyone, but she was wrong after all, she is a slave and will always only be slaughtered by others, she has thought about it countless times The reason why I died this time, but I didn't expect it to be this kind of reason. I was torn apart in a daze, and then I was killed with a stick.Yudie wanted to laugh in her heart, but she couldn't. She had hatred in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out. She still had a younger brother in the palace.Even though she was discarded by the imperial concubine as a pawn, she had to pretend to be grateful.This is life!
Feng Muxie heard Li Xiangyun's words in the house, and felt that this old woman was really thick-skinned. She worked hard for her, and even threatened her inside and outside the words.

Wuhui sat on the ground boredly and looked at the room carefully, only to notice that this is a study room, the furnishings in the room look like things used by women, the books on the bookshelf are yellowed, it seems that they have aged.Orchids are also carved on the side of the desk, which is extremely elegant.Suddenly, Wuhui saw a dirty footprint in front of the desk, Wuhui instinctively felt that the footprint was suspicious.Facing Feng Muxie, who was clenching her fist and silently cursing Li Xiangyun, she whispered, "Miss, there are footprints over there."

Feng Muxie followed Wuhui's fingers, and saw a footprint that looked like a woman. Feng Muxie crawled over with hands and feet, squatted on the ground and inspected the footprint carefully. The footprint was still covered with mud and moss , Feng Muxie followed the direction of the footprints, and saw that they were walking along the bookshelf. Feng Muxie came to the bookshelf again, and she saw a footprint.Feng Muxie squatted on the ground, resting her chin on her hand, staring at the bookshelf, and let out a ruthless bah in her heart, she wouldn't be able to create a secret room, either on the bookshelf or under the bed.

Wuhui sat on the ground with his legs crossed, looked at the bookshelf for a while, then looked at Feng Muxie for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Miss, is there something wrong with the bookshelf?"

Feng Muxie frowned, and said troubledly: "There is a problem. There must be a secret passage behind this bookshelf, and it is a secret passage that has not been used all year round. You can tell by the moss on the footprints. I was thinking, there is another secret passage behind this secret passage. Where does one side lead to?"

Wuhui pouted, thinking that the lady was thinking about some mysterious question just now, "Miss, don't we know if we go in and have a look?"

Hearing that there was no sound outside, Feng Muxie knew that everyone had left, so she got up and went to the desk to touch this and that, looking for the mechanism of the secret room.Wuhui also got up and went to the bookshelf to find the mechanism.After searching for a long time, I couldn't find the mechanism to open the secret room.

Wuhui wondered: "Miss doesn't have a secret room, why didn't I find the mechanism?"

Feng Muxie shook her head, inspected everything in the house, and said affirmatively: "There must be a secret room, and my judgment can't be wrong." Feng Muxie thought carefully, the soil on which the footprints were obvious was not dry yet very moist, The footprints should have been stepped on within two hours. Feng Muxie recalled the people she saw in Xuewu Palace. The only women were the maid in blue and the jade butterfly next to the imperial concubine. Feng Muxie suddenly thought of something , anxiously asked Wuhui who was still looking for the mechanism: "Sister Wuhui, when you were taking off Yudie's shoes, did you notice if there was any dirt on her shoes?"

Wuhui thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "Yes, yes, there is mud on her shoes. I was still wondering how there would be mud on her shoes if it didn't rain."

Feng Muxie was sure that the footprints belonged to Yudie. Since Yudie knew the existence of the secret chamber, the imperial concubine must also know about it, so this secret passage must be a place leading to Qixia Palace.There is a secret passage between Xuewu Palace and Qixia Palace. I don't know if there is something hidden about Concubine Xue's sudden illness and death.

Feng Muxie looked around the study again, and suddenly saw obvious scratches on the bottom of the bookshelves on the wall, which seemed to be caused by friction with the ground.There is a landscape painting on the left side of the bookshelf. It is a very ordinary painting, but it is a bit tilted. Feng Muxie stepped forward and lifted the painting. There was nothing unusual behind it. Feng Muxie knocked on the wall behind the painting and calligraphy with his hands. Listening is hollow.He said happily: "Sister Wuhui, take this painting, the mechanism is here."

Wuhui immediately stepped forward to lift up the calligraphy and painting, Feng Muxie pressed hard against the wall, a one-inch-sized wall was sunken inward, and then a small hole appeared in the wall above, and there was a hand brake in the small hole. Feng Muxie pulled the handbrake to it.

There was only a "click." The bookshelf left, and the wall behind the bookshelf opened inward, revealing a door that looked like a dog's hole.

The corner of Feng Muxie's mouth twitched. This was the most aggrieved secret passage I had ever seen. Who would cut corners and make the door bigger?How embarrassing for such a person of status to drill such a secret path!

Feng Muxie thought about it for a while, but it's almost two hours, if she doesn't go out, Wuyou will probably find someone to look for her in the palace.Feng Muxie said to Wuhui: "Sister Wuhui, you wait for me here, I'll be back in a while." After saying that, she slipped her buttocks into the dog hole without hesitation.

Wuhui shouted into the inside: "Miss, be careful yourself."

After Feng Muxie got in, she realized that the height inside was not bad, at least she could walk upright.Without hesitation, Feng Muxie lit the torch in her hand and walked along the secret path.After a while, the secret passage came to an end, Feng Muxie didn't dare to go out rashly, and could only stick to the wall to listen to the movement outside.
