Chapter 203
Seeing her didn't seem to mind, Zhu Ziyi and Nan Gongxi felt relieved.

Pulling back their thoughts, the few people went forward with one heart and one mind.

Soon, they passed the dungeon again, and from time to time there were howling sounds almost like wild beasts, Xiaoyi couldn't help asking:
"What's that sound?"

Thinking of the man whose hands and feet had been cut off, Zhu Zixin replied:
"It was a strange man whose hands and feet had been cut off. He was imprisoned in a dungeon in front of him. I don't know how he survived."

"Weird? What does he look like?"

Hearing this, Nangong Xi hurriedly asked.

"I don't know, I can't see it anymore, his eyes are already blind, his face is covered with beards, and his hair is very long, so he can't see clearly at all!"

Zhu Zixin replied.

"Come on, show me."

Nangong Xi said hurriedly.

"But……"

Thinking of the terrifying appearance of that person that time, Zhu Zixin felt a little reluctant to go there.

"Don't be afraid, I'm just going to confirm my guess. If it wasn't for him, we'd leave right away!"

Nangong Xi said again.

"Who do you suspect he is?"

In fact, Zhu Zixin was also very curious about that person's identity. He wanted to ask Nangong Xi after he left here last time, but at that time, he didn't seem to want to talk too much to her.Therefore, I didn't ask any questions. Now that I have this opportunity, I might as well go and have a look!
Thinking of this, Zhu Zixin turned to look at Zhu Ziyi, asking for his opinion.

"Since the prince is going, let's take him there."

Zhu Ziyi nodded.

"it is good."

With the elder brother's consent, Zhu Zixin raised his legs and walked towards the dungeon.

After a while, they walked there, and the strange howling sound became louder and louder, until the ground was already trembling, Zhu Zixin just stopped, pointed to a small hole in the ground and said:

"He's right here!"

Nangong Xi glanced at Zhu Zixin nervously, and Fang squatted down nervously to look inside.

After watching for a while, he finally called out in a low voice: "Uncle Emperor?"

The roaring sound inside stopped abruptly, and it was so quiet that you could almost hear a needle drop.

After a long while, the man yelled again.

"It really is you! It really is you!"

Nangong Xi seemed to have been struck by lightning, his complexion turned pale, he slowly stood up straight, and murmured:

"It really is you! I didn't expect that you really didn't die, I didn't expect that Father would treat you like this! I didn't expect to see you here!"

"..."

This series of surprises left everyone on the side at a loss.

Zhu Ziyi was the first to react and asked:

"His Royal Highness, is it possible that this person is actually the Crown Prince Nangong Ying?"

"Exactly!"

"Ah!" Zhu Ziyi was also shocked when he heard the words.

"What the hell is going on? Tell me quickly, brother."

The more Zhu Zixin listened, the more confused he became, and asked eagerly.

"Oh! That's a long story! Let's talk about it when we go out."

Zhu Ziyi said.

"What are you going to do, prince?"

After Zhu Ziyi finished speaking, he asked again.

"This matter is too complicated, let me think about it!"

Nangong Xi's mind was also in chaos at this time, and she didn't know what to do.He rubbed his temples and walked a few steps before saying:
"If I take him out, my royal father will never let me go! But if I don't take him out, I will feel uneasy again!"

"Since it's such a difficult situation, the prince should leave it alone. We'll talk about it after we overcome the difficulties in front of us. If you take the prince back, if the emperor finds out, I'm afraid you won't be spared!"

Zhu Ziyi analyzed.

"Ziyi, what you said is true! But, I can't just do this, let him go."

Having said that, Nangong Xi leaned over to look at the cave entrance again, and said to the people below:
"Uncle, I can only help you here, whether you can go out or not depends on your luck!"

After finishing speaking, he drew out the sword in his waist, split open the window at the entrance of the cave, jumped down, and cut off the rope that bound the man, before flying up, he said to several people:
"Let's go!"

After speaking, he walked forward without looking back.

Afraid that he might get lost, Zhu Zixin hurriedly followed him.

However, it was still a step too late, but in an instant, Nangong Xi disappeared.

"Prince, prince, where are you?"

The anxious Zhu Ziyi and Zhu Zixin couldn't help shouting.

"stupid!"

At this time, Colin, who had never spoken, suddenly said a word. Hearing this, several people couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Suddenly, Zhu Zixin, who had extremely sensitive hearing, heard the sound of weapons clashing, was startled, and hurriedly ran in that direction.

The others followed behind her, and after running for a short time, they saw Nangong Xi brandishing a sword and fighting with a red-clothed zongzi.

"My God! She's still here!"

Seeing this thing, Zhu Zixin couldn't help screaming.

"Go over and help!"

Zhu Ziyi rushed over while shouting.

Pulling out the sword, the two fought with Zongzi.

"Brother, you deal with her first, I'll go find the gossip mirror, the prince must have touched that thing again unintentionally!"

Thinking of their experience last time, Zhu Zixin immediately thought of that possibility.

"Well, hurry up, we are about to be overwhelmed!"

Zhu Ziyi said.

While talking, he caught sight of Colin who was standing in the distance with his arms crossed, watching the excitement, and he couldn't help shouting:

"Hey, strong man, come and help!"

Colin heard the words, but ignored Zhu Ziyi, still standing straight, motionless.

"Hey, what about you, didn't you see that we couldn't resist it?"

Zhu Ziyi said again.However, Colin didn't seem to have heard it at all, and still went his own way.

"Go and help them! I beg you!"

Xiaoyi on the side was also anxious when she saw this, and hurriedly said to Colin.

After listening to Xiaoyi's words, Colin finally gave her a supercilious look, but he still didn't do anything.

At this time, Zhu Zixin looked back, and just now called out:

"Colin, go help!"

Before she finished speaking, Colin flew towards him like a bolt of lightning, and hit the zongzi in the same place.

"..."

Seeing this, several people were all speechless.

"It turns out that he only listens to you!"

Xiaoyi said a little funny.

"Ha ha……"

Apart from laughing, Zhu Zixin didn't know how to express his feelings.

Fortunately, at this moment, she finally saw the Eight Diagrams Mirror not far away, rushed over and held it in her hand.She yelled, "Get out of the way, all of you!"

Hearing this, Colin hurriedly pulled back.Zhu Ziyi and Nan Gongxi also stepped aside hastily.

Zhu Zixin picked up the bronze mirror and looked at the zongzi.

In this photo, Zongzi really let out a howl, and then began to back away again and again, trying to hide, Zhu Zixin kept on chasing the Zongzi with a mirror, and after a while, he saw that Zongzi was covered in smoke and gradually melted away. Disappeared as a puff of smoke!

"Damn, you dare to fight with sister! Last time you spared your life, this time you actually come out to harm people! Now that you have turned into flying ashes, how can you harm people?"

Zhu Zixin saw that the matter had been resolved anyway, and while muttering, he put the mirror into his arms.

"Zixin, what do you need that mirror for?"

Seeing her putting the mirror in her arms, Zhu Ziyi couldn't help asking.

"It's nothing, I think this mirror is very interesting, keep it as a souvenir."

While Zhu Zixin was talking, he had already walked in front of several people, and said, "Since we are fine, let's continue walking."

After finishing speaking, she led the way, Zhu Ziyi followed behind her, Nan Gongxi and Xiaoyi Kelin followed closely, and walked outside.

This time, it went very smoothly. Although the tomb looked terrifying, because they were familiar with the road here, several people did not dare to walk around at will after experiencing the incident with rice dumplings. Therefore, at night, they walked from Nangongxi's backyard crawled out.

Standing in the courtyard, Zhu Zixin just said: "This tunnel leads to the Prince's Mansion, the Prince doesn't know about it?"

She had wanted to ask this question a long time ago.

Because of this authenticity, Zhu Zixin always thought that the prince had also entered the tomb, but judging from his ignorance of the tomb today, it seems that he really did not enter the tomb.

"The emperor's grandfather once expressly prohibited people from the royal family from entering the tomb. How dare this king disobey his order? As for this tunnel, the queen mother sent someone to dig it. I couldn't stop it, so she went."

Nangong Xi explained.

"You mean, your mother knows that this leads to the tomb?"

Zhu Zixin suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and asked hastily.

Nangong Xi nodded.

"Brother, I see, that man... that masked man..."

Before finishing speaking, Zhu Ziyi said:
"Well, yes, Zixin, I understand!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Ziyi asked Nan Gongxi again:

"His Royal Highness, is there a woman with superb martial arts beside the Queen?"

Hearing this, Nan Gongxi thought for a while, nodded and said:
"There is such a person, what's the matter?"

Hearing what he said, Zhu Ziyi and Zhu Zixin looked at each other, and Zhu Zixin asked again:

"Has His Royal Highness seen her appearance before?"

"Not really. I have only veiled her a few times, because the Queen Mother always sends her out on missions, and she always wears a veil. I have never seen her face."

Hearing what Nangong Xi said, Zhu Ziyi and Zhu Zixin were already sure that that person was someone close to the queen.

Once the target is locked, this person will be easy to find.There is no rush either.

"Okay, don't talk here, let's go into the house."

Nangong Xi said.

After speaking, he led everyone to the front yard.

However, before walking a few steps, the front yard was suddenly brightly lit, and there were bursts of noise from outside.

"quick!"

Nangongxi realized that something was wrong, said "quickly", and hurried forward.

Before he got there, he heard the voice of Gai Tianlu, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army:
"Come here, seal the prince's mansion to me, and take everyone away!"

"What are you doing? What are you doing? Why did you seal up our Prince's Mansion?" Uncle Wang, the old housekeeper of the Prince's Mansion, asked anxiously after hearing the words.

"Hmph, someone reported that the prince led someone to sneak into the princess's tomb to steal the treasures in the tomb, but this official is only here to handle the case on the order of the emperor. Please don't stop the old housekeeper."
