Daughter of the royal palace

Chapter 499 The Grand Finale (2)
Before he finished speaking, the furious Prince An grabbed the skirt of his clothes.

"In that case, why didn't you take it out earlier?"

"The lord calm down," Kong Kong smiled bitterly, "The empress is benevolent and caring for the common people. Why doesn't this old man want to save her? It's a pity that my brother left a will that day. Although this relic is a sacred object, it must be held in front of the Buddha." It took 12 years of enshrining to save the life of the empress. Originally, the empress had obtained the thousand-year-old Snow Ganoderma lucidum, so it would be no problem to spend the last two years safely, but I never expected..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Prince An angrily glared at Prince Li again, wishing to tear him to pieces.Prince Li was stunned after hearing Kong's words, did he kill her?
In the end, it was Xiao Tingxuan who was the calmest, "Master, since the relic has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, does that mean that as long as I find my mother now, her life can be saved?"

After Xiao Tingxuan finished speaking, everyone around him looked at Kong with hope.

Liao Kong's eyes dimmed, "Originally it was possible, but..."

"But what, but?" Prince An's patience had been exhausted by him, and he couldn't help shouting. "You old bald donkey, finish what you have to say at once, don't hesitate."

Liaokong smiled wryly, "This relic has been illuminated by the Buddha's light, although it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life, but it is only limited to twelve hours, otherwise..."

"So that's what you were talking about." Prince An changed his previous rage, and his whole body became radiant.

"It's simple, can't we find the emperor's wife within twelve hours?"

Kong Kong frowned, "Jump from here, Sunset Cliff is a frozen lake. If the Queen's body gets wet, this relic won't work."

Xiao Tingxuan smiled lightly, "No way."

Before Liao Kong understood what he meant, Xiao Tingxuan had already looked at Prince An beside him.

"Uncle Ba, you should have the map of 'Heart Lake' with you, right?"

"It's on me." Prince An didn't care about being surprised at this moment, and directly took out a piece of silk from his arms.The silk cloth was as smooth as jade, and under the rays of the setting sun, the ripples on it swayed, and the luster of the colorful colored glaze dazzled the eyes.This is a map, on which a scene that can be called a paradise is depicted with fine stitches, which instantly amazed everyone's eyes.

"This is?" Ling Xihan couldn't help asking.

"This is the holy scene of the heart lake that the emperor spent a lot of money on for his wife 15 years ago." Prince An looked at the beautiful scene on the ground and said calmly.

Ling Xihan couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Such a huge project is even worse than the Imperial Palace and the City of Worry-Freedom. How big a huge sum of money should it be?
"The Holy Scenery of the Heart Lake was designed by the emperor himself, and it was built at the bottom of the sunset cliff. It took two years to complete." Prince An's eyes concealed too much emotion, "Back then, the emperor's brother and the emperor's wife quarreled, and the emperor's wife was angry. Then he moved into Fengqi Palace. In order to make the emperor's wife happy, the emperor built this paradise in those two years." His eyes were blurred and disillusioned, and his voice was low and soft. "Since the completion of the Heart Lake Sacred Scenery, no one has stepped in. All the workers who built the Heart Lake Sacred Scenery were secretly executed by the emperor. This place was originally used by the emperor's brother to bring the emperor's wife after he abdicated in the future. reclusive."

Xiao Tingxuan's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't speak.

"In order to escape the imperial family's political marriage and travel in the palace when he was young, the imperial brother destroyed southern Xinjiang alone, and took away all the treasures and property in southern Xinjiang, which was more than three times more than the national treasury. When the imperial brother hired the emperor's wife, he spent three times. One-third of it, and the rest...all were used to build this sacred scene of the heart lake."

Ling Xihan sighed in his heart that Emperor Yuan Qing's affection for the queen was no longer enough to describe it as deep as the sea.

Huangfu Queling walked over, his expression a little excited.

"Then that is to say, the emperor took Master to the Sacred Scenery of Heart Lake, and Master can still be saved?" She said excitedly.

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all looked at Kong.

Liao Kong obviously didn't expect such an attack, so he nodded after reacting.

"As long as the queen's body is not wet, and the relic is given to her within twelve hours, the queen can be reborn."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go down quickly." King Zhongyi said impatiently.

"Don't worry yet." Prince An frowned, "Although the sacred scenery of the heart lake is as beautiful as a paradise, it is full of strange formations and hidden doors, which are extremely dangerous." He looked at Xiao Tingxuan, "We will do it like this If you jump down rashly, you may be injured by the hidden weapon of the mechanism and die on the way. It is better to study this picture clearly first. Xuan'er, Brother Huang taught you how to form formations and break formations since childhood. You should know the specifications of his formations , let’s take a look, what issues we should pay attention to when we go down.” He has kept this picture for ten years, but he is not very proficient in the formation, and he still can’t understand the mystery after studying it for ten years.

Ling Xihan also came over to observe carefully. Although she is not as proficient in the formation as Xiao Tingxuan and Ouyang Chen, she thinks she is not bad, maybe she can help.

The "Sacred Scenery of Heart Lake" deserves to be carefully designed by Emperor Yuan Qing. Its huge scale and magnificent scenery can be seen from this picture alone.

Half an hour later, Xiao Tingxuan pointed to a corner on the map.

"If you jump from here, you will fall into this peach blossom forest."

Ling Xihan took over the words, "Since the emperor carefully built the heart lake for the empress, he definitely doesn't like outsiders approaching. Therefore, there must be organs everywhere in it. If someone disturbs the empress, then this entrance must be the most difficult and dangerous one." .And this seemingly beautiful peach blossom forest must hide infinite murderous intentions."

"Yes." Xiao Tingxuan nodded in agreement, "So we—"

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted softly by Prince Li.

"No, here is the safest entrance."

Prince An glared at him angrily, "Ouyang Hen, shut up."

Xiao Tingxuan frowned, but did not speak.

Prince Li had already walked to the edge of the cliff, muttering to himself: "Anything involving her, he will definitely avoid any danger approaching. Therefore, this is the safest entrance." go down.

"Ouyang Hen." Prince An's eyes widened in disbelief.Suddenly seeing an inky black figure flash by beside him, he subconsciously grabbed that person's sleeve.

"Fifth Brother, what are you doing? Ouyang Hen is a lunatic, can you also go crazy with him?"

"No." Prince Yi looked indifferent, and lightly brushed off Prince An's hand holding onto his sleeve.

"There is a saying in the art of war. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win a hundred battles. Ouyang Hen has been fighting secretly with the emperor for so many years, and his understanding of each other is thousands of times better than his own. Besides, even though he is hateful, he will never be in the matter of the emperor's wife." child's play."
