It was half past Xu hour, and the eunuch on duty in the Ministry of Internal Affairs had already gone off duty. The palace was completely dark, with only a few royal guards guarding the outside.
Ye Tinglan nodded and walked straight in.
The Baimu Lingxi has been stored here since the Beishang people came to the palace to consecrate it. The one that was previously stolen from the warehouse of Prince Mo was just a fake, but the genuine one is now in the hands of Ye Tinglan.
He raised his eyes and glanced at the empty space on the shelf. He reached out and took out something from his sleeve and put it back silently.
It's the iron box that holds Baimu Lingxi.
Feng Yinwan raised her eyebrows, and there was a hint of understanding in her eyes.
Sure enough.
Although they don’t know why the villains wanted to rob Baimu Lingxi, they will definitely not give up after discovering that what they obtained is a fake.
Use this as bait to lure the enemy deeper. This is tonight's plan.
"Go down and tell everyone to stand still. Anyone who dares to disobey privately will be killed."
This tone is decisive and decisive.
His military discipline has always been strict, let alone what happened tonight.
Qi Xuan's heart trembled, and he immediately nodded, "Yes!"
The movement in the hall faded away in an instant. Ye Tinglan glanced back and raised her thin lips coldly.
"Come with me."
The warehouses of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are stacked on top of each other. They stood behind a screen. From here, they could see the situation inside the palace and also observe the situation outside the palace.
Feng Yinwan and Qiwen looked at each other and nodded.
The next moment, Qi Wen understood what he meant and jumped onto the beam.
His skills were no worse than Qi Xuan's. When Ye Tinglan saw this, his eyebrows barely moved.
As soon as the sound of the third watch passed, Qi Xuan crept in quietly from outside.
"Your Majesty, people are here."
Through the cracks in the window, a few shadows could be vaguely glimpsed.
The opponent's movement was very light, as if a gust of wind was blowing quietly. In an instant, the forest guards guarding outside fell one after another.
They must have used poisonous mist, and the few forest guards were not aware of it from beginning to end, so naturally they were unable to resist.
With a "click", the lock on the palace door quietly fell to the ground, and several figures walked in with clear goals, heading straight to the area where tributes from other countries were presented.
This action is unexpectedly skillful.
Feng Yinwan used to be Princess Mo, but she only entered the palace a handful of times. Tonight, she entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the first time.
She doesn't even know much about this as a princess, so why do the villains know so much about it?
It's more like... I knew about this early in the morning.
Her heart condensed slightly, and she turned her eyes to look at Ye Tinglan's expression, but the other party's profile was stern, with no emotion on his face.
There was a rustle of movement in the hall. Seeing that the other party had touched the shelf where the Baimu Lingxi was placed, Ye Tinglan still made no sound and had no intention of taking action.
Feng Yinwan frowned.
That's a real Baimu Lingxi! He just used it for fishing so confidently and boldly?
She silently pulled down his cuffs, but the other party remained unmoved.
On the other side, the man in Xuanyi had already reached out and picked up the iron box.
"It is indeed here."
There was a very soft sound, and it was difficult to tell the male and female. After confirming, the other party put the iron box into his arms.
Seeing this situation, Feng Yinwan and Qi Xuan became more and more anxious, and Qi Wen on Liang Shang also winked several times.
But Ye Tinglan never gave the order, so none of them dared to act rashly.
The other party didn't stop for long. After getting the things, he turned around and left. Seeing that he was about to exit the palace, Feng Yinwan's heart tightened and a silver needle shot out of his hand.
The opponent has poison in his hands, and he is not an ordinary person. No matter what kind of troops Ye Tinglan has deployed outside, everything will be uncertain after walking out of this door.
Never mind.
She can't let go of the villain, and she can't give away Bai Mu Lingxi!
