Pei Langzhong stepped aside knowingly.

Chunni said in a low voice and quickly: "Your Majesty, the people from Jingzhao Mansion found a secret door in another courtyard, but they don't know how to open it."

Shen Munan looked at Gu Yunyao: "You rest for a while, I'll send someone to guard you, just don't worry."

"I'll go too," Gu Yunyao pointed to the room, "Let their family have a good reunion."

"By the way, is the soup ready?"

"Okay, I've ordered someone to pick it up."

"It's not for me to eat, but for Mr. Pei to eat. He needs nutrition, and he can only drink soup at the moment."

Shen Munan frowned slightly: "Then you also need to eat."

"It's okay, I'm not hungry now, let's go!"

Chunni led the way to the courtyard.

This yard is not only remote, but also desolate, with grass growing all over the ground and yellow eyes everywhere.

"I didn't even notice it at first. It was too dilapidated here. It was the dogs from Jingzhao Mansion who found it."

Jingzhao Mansion keeps several dogs with special noses, which they usually use for searches and have solved many cases.

"The government servants are following me. There are debris all over the place. I don't know where I bumped into it. The mechanism was activated, revealing a secret door, but the secret door cannot be opened."

Shen Munan listened to the report and walked slowly inside.

Gu Yunyao followed him and looked down. There were traces on the ground that had been covered up. It was unknown what they were.

There were weeds all over the place, and some of them fell forward, but it is normal for the weeds to wander here and there in this season.

However, Gu Yunyao was keenly aware of the unusualness. After careful observation, these marks were not the same as the normal inverted grass.

It's like... I was pressed down by something heavy some time ago.

Look at the width, then look at the distance.

This is... a wheel?!

Gu Yunyao raised her head and looked at the secret door. There should be something unusual hidden behind this door.

It is heavy and numerous, so it needs to be transported by vehicle, and it also leaves ruts on the ground.

"What are you looking at?" Shen Munan turned around and asked.

Gu Yunyao expressed her thoughts, and Shen Munan thought for a moment and walked to the secret door.

Gu Yunyao thought to herself, could it be some kind of gold and silver treasure?

Shen Munan groped around for a while, but found nothing special.

As soon as Gu Yunyao came closer, a big black dog ran towards her. She didn't take precautions and subconsciously stepped back.

My foot kicked a brick in the corner, and the brick suddenly sank in.

With a dull sound, the secret door slowly opened.

Gu Yunyao: "..."

This luck.

Chunni went in first and lit the brazier on the wall, filling the dark room with light.

It's a big place, with about twenty large wooden boxes. There are seals on the boxes, but there's nothing written on the seals.

Shen Munan walked over and lowered his eyes.

Shi Shiyong also came forward, frowning.

"Come here, open the box!"

Opening one of the boxes, Gu Yunyao was disappointed to find that instead of gold and silver jewelry, there were boxes of iron.

Dark and bright, it is still a rare fine iron.

Shen Munan's face was extremely gloomy, and his eyes seemed to be filled with strong winds and waves.

Shi Shiyong also changed his expression: "This... I must enter the palace immediately to see you!"

Gu Yunyao suddenly understood that this was the era of cold weapons. Iron was like salt and could only be controlled by the imperial court.

Private individuals cannot buy or sell, let alone own.

Iron is used to make weapons and... for rebellion.

The third princess has so many lives in her hands, which means she has bad moral character and is cruel-hearted; but if she hides the fine iron secretly, she has a disobedient heart and is treasonous.

Shen Munan picked up the seal: "Master Shi, how do you want to report to your father?"

Before Shi Shiyong could say anything, Chunni walked inside and said, "Your Majesty, there is something else here!"

A few people passed by and saw something seemed to be pressed under a box. Only a little bit was exposed, but the whole picture could not be seen.

"Lift the box and take out the things."

The box was lifted open, and underneath was a crushed jade pendant.

Seeing the jade pendant, Shi Shiyong frowned so tightly that he could kill a fly.

Gu Yunyao looked carefully and saw that the jade pendant was of excellent quality and looked familiar.

She lowered her eyes and looked at Shen Munan's waist. There was also a jade pendant that was very similar to the broken one.

But in the middle of the broken piece is not the word "Qin", but a four-clawed golden python.

Shen Munan's voice was calm, and there was no hint of emotion or anger: "Do you recognize it, Lord Shi? Whose thing is this?"

"This official knows that he is His Highness the Crown Prince."

"If you go to the palace to meet the emperor, it will be the prince you meet."

"So what?" Shi Shiyong sneered, "Although the lower official is not as noble as the prince, let alone the prince.

But I know that when I serve as an official, I should serve the court and the people. If I don’t report to the emperor, what kind of official job will I be doing?”

Gu Yunyao secretly liked it.

This man is really brave, stronger than Qiu Fengtou.

Seeing him turning around to leave, Shen Munan said: "Master Shi, don't be in a hurry. You hurried into the palace before you could figure it out. How do you report back to your father?"

"The official is magnanimous..."

"I know that you are magnanimous, but your magnanimity is your business, and the prince will not admit it easily just because you are magnanimous.

Also, you don’t care about the many people outside who are waiting for you to make the decision?”

Shi Shiyong pursed his lips hard: "Of course I have to take care of it."

"In this case, why not ask the matter clearly first, see how my three emperor sisters respond, and then write a report together.

Everything that happened in her house needs to be explained clearly, so I can't trouble my father twice."

Shi Shiyong thought it was reasonable and ordered someone to invite the third princess.

The third princess had been tired all night, and when she saw Su Tanhua being implicated, she was angry and uneasy, and her face looked very haggard.

I was just about to ask the doctor to attach Su Tanhua's finger, when I was brought here.

When she saw the secret door and fine iron, her face turned even darker.

"What... what is this? I have never seen this before! Someone must have framed me."

She turned to stare at Shen Munan: "Is it you? It must be you. You want to slander me, Zangtie, and want my father to kill me. You are dreaming!"

Shen Munan sneered, he didn't even bother to respond to such words.

Shi Shiyong asked: "Princess, please calm down for a moment. Do you mean that you don't know that there is fine iron here?"

"Of course I don't know. I am a woman and I don't have time to make weapons. Why do I need iron? Shi Shiyong, use your brain!"

Shi Shiyong's face was gloomy: "Princess, I didn't say this thing is yours."

The third princess was stunned.

Shi Shiyong held the jade pendant in front of her: "Look."

The third princess looked intently, her face pale and green: "Prince?"

My mind was spinning all over for a while, and I didn’t know how to deal with it.

Prince? How could that happen?

Suddenly she remembered that before she went to the nunnery, the prince came to see her in the mansion and said that the garden in her mansion was beautiful. He wanted to take a look around and build one for the princess when she went back.

She didn't think much about it at the time and told the housekeeper that whenever people from the East Palace came to visit the garden, they should be invited to have a look at it as they pleased.

Could it be that...from that moment on, the prince had planned to put these things with her?

If no one discovers it, it will be taken away when it is needed, without anyone noticing; if it is discovered, it will be like this now, and it will all be carried by her.

The overwhelming hatred surged in my heart. Okay, okay, one or two of them will plot against her!

"Since you know it's not from me, then you go find the prince and I don't know!"

Gu Yunyao looked on coldly, thinking there was something strange about this.

But at this moment, she was happy to see the princess in misfortune.

Shen Munan said calmly: "Whether you know it or not, go and tell Father that the thing is here for you. If you say you don't know, it depends on whether Father believes it or not."

"Besides, you and the prince have always had a close brother-sister relationship, so it is reasonable for you to conspire to do this."

"Shen Munan, you are so slanderous!"

Shen Munan approached her and bowed his head in her ear: "Where are you now? When you took Yun Yao away, you should have thought that I would never give up."
