In the northeast corner of the Zhenhua Terrace dormitory, behind the curtain, a bluestone floor tile suddenly fell silently and was gently caught by Wu Sheng.
A head came out from the side of his neck, and he exhaled like a blue breath: "Where?"
Without waiting for Wu Sheng to answer, he couldn't wait to dig up. The two of them were stuck at the exit for a moment, and they were in the wrong position for a while. Finally, they staggered, and Jian Jia was able to poke her head out of the hole.
After observing for a while, Jian Jia supported Wu Sheng's head and floated up to the beam on the top of the palace, her eyes full of excitement.
She walked along the beam to the cabinet shelf beside the wall, rolled down and found that it was locked by a copper lock. This lock was also a magic weapon, and she was at a loss for a moment.
She glanced at Meng Ying, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, and was hesitating whether to search for the key under her pillow, when Wu Sheng had already come to her side.
Jian Jia indicated with her eyes that there was a secret compartment on the bed, just under the pillow, where the key might be. Wu Sheng did not look at her eyes for a long time, but stared at the copper lock in a daze.
Just as he was in a hurry, he saw Wu Sheng reaching out and gently lifting the lock. The lock instantly turned into dust, and the lock opened.
This scene was very familiar. Jian Jia had seen it many times in the past few days. Zhuan Zhu's various swords were destroyed in this way, so she was secretly surprised - locks also have souls? Lock souls?
There was no time to think too much at this moment. The cabinet door opened. Jian Jia opened the two jewelry boxes inside and took a closer look with Wu Sheng. As expected, there was no fish-shaped pendant that Mi Fei mentioned.
This time Wu Sheng finally turned to look at Jian Jia and asked with his eyes: "Where are the things?"
Jian Jia motioned to the curtained bed: "There is a secret compartment under Meng Ying's pillow."
Wu Sheng pursed his lips: "People are pressing on it, how to do it?"
Jian Jia smiled and said, "I'm fully prepared!"
The two of them followed the beam to the sleeping tent and rolled it down again. Jian Jia took out a stick of incense, lit it, poked it on the top of the sleeping tent, and instantly made a hole, then stuffed the incense head inside.
In the hole, inhale, blow...
When she took out the incense stick, Wu Sheng was very close to her, almost face to face with her. He could see it very clearly. She felt that the incense looked very familiar. The moment she lit it, she suddenly remembered that this was similar to
It was so similar to the incense stick that Bu Sanshi gave me back then that I subconsciously held my breath.
Then, with a bang, Jian Jia fell down...
Wu Sheng was speechless. He quickly turned over and climbed into the bed. He took a look and saw that Meng Ying was asleep on the bed. This Mi Xiang was indeed still so domineering!
He first stubbed out the incense that fell on the quilt and put it away, then picked up Jian Jia from the floor. He vaguely remembered that he still had half a piece of mud left by Bu Sanshi in his fingers, so he quickly took it out for Jian Jia to smell.
.
Jian Jia woke up faintly in his arms, her big eyes full of confusion.
A question came from the palace lady: "Eldest princess?"
Jian Jia subconsciously replied: "Well, it's okay..." After answering, she realized and covered her mouth again.
Fortunately, the Qin ladies serving outside the palace didn't hear anything wrong with the simple words. Perhaps they were half asleep and half awake, so they didn't investigate further.
Wu Sheng whispered in Jian Jia's ear: "Are you stupid? Light up the incense and take a sip first. Do you want to try the effect?"
Jian Jia apologized: "I've never used it before..."
Wu Sheng asked: "Do you know Bu Sanshi?"
Jian Jia blinked: "You know him too?"
Wu Sheng smiled proudly: "This old guy extorted my money back then."
This was not a place for casual conversation. The two of them gently put up the collapsed curtain, got into the bed, and turned over the sleeping Meng Ying. They saw a hidden compartment under the pillow.
After opening it, there were indeed some women's personal belongings inside, but there was still no trace of the fish-shaped jade pendant.
"What should I do? Where did the things go?" Wu Sheng asked.
"I don't know. These things in the grid are probably Meng Ying's most commonly used personal belongings. If there is a jade pendant, it stands to reason that it wouldn't be hidden elsewhere... Hey, don't look at it, don't look at it!"
"What's this?"
"It has nothing to do with you!"
"It's not your thing. Why don't you let me see it?"
"Anyway, don't look at it!"
The two people who were arguing suddenly shut up at the same time. Footsteps were heard outside the palace, and Gong'e from Qin called out: "Doctor Fei..."
Someone asked: "Is the eldest princess here?"
Gong'e of the Qin Dynasty said: "It's late at night, and the eldest princess has gone to bed."
The man said: "Pass in, I want to see you."
Gong'e from Qin hesitated: "This..."
The man was impatient: "The king asked me to come. It's urgent. Hurry!"
Gong'e of Qin responded: "Yes..."
Footsteps came to the door of the palace, and the palace lady reported: "Eldest Princess, Doctor Fei wants to see you. Eldest Princess?"
Wu Sheng quickly put the antidote residue on Meng Ying's nose. Meng Ying, who was sleeping, choked and coughed repeatedly.
Amidst the coughing, Wu Sheng was about to drag Jian Jia out of the tent and try to hide it when the palace door creaked open and someone strode in.
"Doctor Fei? No!" Several Qin ladies and concubines followed to stop him, but the man shouted: "Hold the lamp!"
Unable to get out of the curtain, Jian Jia pulled Wu Sheng to turn over and hide in the back of the bed. Wu Sheng easily pulled a quilt over to cover him.
The two huddled together, and Wu Sheng felt Jian Jia's whole body trembling, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid."
Jian Jia said in his ear: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's so exciting... This is Fei Wuji. What do you think he wants to do?"
Wu Sheng was startled: "He won't come up, will he?"
A dim oil lamp lit up. Gong'e wanted to continue lighting the lamp, but was interrupted by Fei Wuji: "That's enough, step back!"
Several palace ladies had no choice but to retreat.
Fei Wuji said to the bed, "Are you awake?"
Meng Ying had just woken up and was hurriedly trying to get dressed in the curtains, but his clothes were outside, so he had to hold on to a thin quilt to wrap himself up.
Fei Wuji stopped him and said, "No need to come out, just talk in the tent."
Meng Ying's mind was groggy, and he suddenly wondered: "Why did Doctor Fei come so late at night?"
Fei Wuji asked in a low voice: "Who have you seen in the past two days?"
Meng Ying asked: "What's wrong?"
Fei Wuji said: "Just tell me who you have met?"
Meng Ying said: "Only Princess Jianjia came to visit me yesterday and gave me some gifts."
Fei Wuji said: "I know this, except her?"
Meng Ying said: "There is no one else."
Fei Wuji asked: "Seriously?"
Meng Ying said: "There is no lie. She is the only one among the nobles. If there are other eunuchs and guards in the palace, Chu E, then I can't miss her."
Fei Wuji said, "Is there anything inappropriate in your daily speech and behavior?"
Meng Ying asked in shock: "Has someone seen through it?"
Fei Wuji said: "Tell me first, has anyone seen through it?"
Meng Ying cried aggrievedly: "I have tried my best to learn...Although I am a married princess, my mother is a concubine, and I live in a side palace. How can anyone think of me as a princess? I rarely see people on weekdays, why?
Do you know these many etiquettes? I told you, Doctor Fei, that I can’t learn them.”
Fei Wuji said: "The one I chose is that no one else has seen you before, and you have outstanding appearance. Now, if you think about it carefully, where are the flaws?"
Meng Ying asked: "What happened?"
