The cherries are indeed as Song Chen said, beautiful and delicious.
When you take a bite, the rich juice and sweet and sour taste make you want to stop.
"This space of yours is truly amazing."
There were so many things he had never seen before that he often felt ignorant.
Song Chen raised his eyebrows proudly, "There are even more magical places. Anyway, just be careful and don't hide anything from me in the future, otherwise I will ask you to see what magic is."
"I really didn't mean to hide it this time."
This was something he did wrong, and Cang Xiuxuan didn't intend to excuse himself, "I know she wanted to get close to me, but I just wanted to investigate it thoroughly before telling you."
"I believe you, but I don't like the way you handle it. You can tell me from the beginning. Have you ever thought about what kind of danger you would be in if you didn't investigate it for a long time?"
Thinking of where the woman just now came from, Song Chen felt scared in his heart.
"There is a secret passage in your palace. You have to explore where it leads to find out."
Song Chen's eyes turned to the couch in the inner hall, and his hand pointed there, "That's where the woman just came out from."
Cang Xiuxuan looked in the direction of her finger with an unclear expression.
"There is such a secret passage in the inner courtyard of the palace, which shows how stupid he is. He is absolutely unaware of this secret passage, otherwise he would not have any back-up plan."
The person Cang Xiuxuan was talking about was naturally his dead emperor father.
"I'll go take a look first. Only if I know where the secret passage leads can I find other clues."
"I'll go with you."
How could Cang Xiuxuan let her enter that secret passage alone?
"I have made arrangements outside. No one can come in without my order." In order to reassure Song Chen, Cang Xiuxuan also told her his arrangements.
Song Chen had heard these things before when she was in the space, so she was not worried at all.
"I didn't say I wouldn't let you go...what's the point of getting excited."
Cang Xiuxuan showed his disgust without any concealment, and Cang Xiuxuan felt as if he had been stabbed in the heart.
But right now, he really couldn't say anything else, for fear that Song Chen would regret it and not take him with him.
The two of them came to the inner hall together. Song Chen observed the surrounding situation again, and finally lowered the curtain that separated the inside and outside.
"I'm not sure if there are other people in the secret passage. I'll go in first later. You can listen to my news outside. If there is no news, you can't act rashly."
"Chen'er, no."
Cang Xiuxuan pulled her, "Either we go in together, or I go in first."
What kind of a grown man can he be if he lets the woman he loves take risks?
Song Chen tilted his head and looked at him, "Are you threatening me?"
Cang Xiuxuan disagreed, "Is this a threat?"
Song Chen nodded, "It's a threat to me. You gave me two choices."
In her opinion, as long as there is an option, it is considered a threat.
Cang Xiuxuan laughed angrily at her clever words, "Then do you accept my threat?"
Song Chen Yang Yangmei said, "I'm in a good mood today, let's just accept it."
Cang Xiuxuan smiled and pinched her face.
After the two of them argued for a while, Cang Xiuxuan's eyes turned to the bed. This was actually the emperor's residence in the palace, but the former emperor didn't live here very much. He spent most of his time in the harem.
.
"Stand back."
Cang Xiuxuan asked Song Chen to lean back a little, and he was about to open the secret passage.
Song Chen obediently walked behind Cang Xiuxuan. Following Cang Xiuxuan's actions, the secret passage was opened. As far as they could see now, it was empty, and there was no sign of anyone else appearing inside.
But Cang Xiuxuan has always been cautious, and now even though no trace of anyone else was found, he still did not let down his guard.
Before Song Chen came in, Cang Xiuxuan had already taken the lead to conduct an investigation, and only brought Song Chen in after making sure it was safe.
"This secret passage seems to be quite some distance away. You have to be behind me the whole way as you move forward."
In an environment like a secret passage, being behind you is the safest state.
Song Chen would not rebel at this time. Naturally, Cang Xiuxuan could do whatever he said. He hid behind Cang Xiuxuan the whole time and let him lead him forward.
Along the way, no other crises were discovered.
Until export.
Cang Xiuxuan looked at the scene in front of him with a very ugly expression.
"This is the Queen Mother's bedroom!"
He carefully opened a small opening at the exit of the secret passage, but with just this small opening, he could clearly see the situation outside.
Cang Xiuxuan closed the exit of the secret passage again without disturbing anyone.
"Queen Mother?" Song Chen didn't quite understand when she heard this. She seemed to remember that the Queen Mother seemed to have helped Cang Xiuxuan a little bit earlier.
This secret passage directly connects the Queen Mother's bedroom and the Emperor's bedroom. It's easy to figure out what connection there is.
The Queen Mother had acted like a good person in front of Cang Xiuxuan before, but she didn't expect that she had such thoughts behind her back.
If the Queen Mother hadn't revealed this secret passage, would other people know about it?
She really didn't believe that there were such stupid people in this world who would be willing to tell such a secret to others.
"In the palace, no one's thoughts are pure. The only connection point is interests."
Cang Xiuxuan has understood this a long time ago, but Song Chen is still a little unclear about this.
It might not be a bad thing to take this opportunity to point this out with her now.
Song Chen actually knew better than anyone how attractive the word "interest" was. In his previous life, such a large family was connected by interests. At that time, their family seemed to be the same as the current palace.
At that time, she couldn't tell who was sincere and who was fake.
Now that this is the case, she can face it with the same face.
"You and I can never talk only about interests."
Song Chen knows better than anyone what kind of life she lived in her previous life. She also knows better than anyone how difficult such a life is. What Cang Xiuxuan is facing now is the same situation she faced in the past, so after hearing this, can she be okay?
A hesitant statement.
Cang Xiuxuan understands this even if she doesn't say it. Cang Xiuxuan also knows why she is saying such things now.
In the narrow secret passage, Cang Xiuxuan held Song Chen tightly in his arms.
"The greatest luck in my life is meeting you."
In this life, nothing more important and luckier than this has happened. If he had not met her, the word luck would not have appeared in this life, and he would not know what luck is at all.
