In the secret room of the side hall of Cining Palace, Shen Yuyu walked down the steps step by step holding a fire folding piece. He smelled the familiar fragrance in the air getting stronger and stronger. After going down the long steps, he came to a place of about thirty square meters. 's secret room.
The secret room was lit with lamps, and the light was very bright. The room was fully furnished with tables, chairs, and beds, and it looked like someone was living there.
There were some inner clothes draped on the slump of the innermost chair. Shen Yuxi came closer and smelled it. The scent was emanating from those clothes.
Shen Yuyu was excited. It seemed that she had found the lair of the man in black. Now she would confirm his identity to see if it was Wei Xuanyuan.
There were several books on the table, and Shen Yuyu looked through them carefully, but found nothing.
After searching around the room and finding nothing, I was disappointed when I suddenly found a corner of the fan hanging from the bed, so I hurriedly picked it up.
This fan is extraordinary at first glance. It has a beautifully carved ivory fan bone and a landscape painting on the fan. There is a seal left by the painter on the fan, who was a famous painter from the previous dynasty.
The fact that the fan is so noble is enough to prove the respect of the owner of the fan. Of course, the most important thing is that such a noble fan does not have a fan pendant. What does this mean?
Shen Yuyu's eyebrows moved slightly, he quickly put away the fan, and began to wonder where the poisonous snakes were kept.
Thinking of this, his eyes fell on the table in the middle of the secret room again. When he went over to take a look, sure enough, the corners of two of the tables were smooth and smooth. There must be a secret room underneath. However, Shen Yuyu did not dare to open it rashly this time, in case something happened. If the poisonous snake is released, it will definitely scare the snake away.
After thinking about it, I put my ear to it and listened. I really heard the screams of mice being preyed on. There was no doubt that venomous snakes were being raised here.
After the investigation was almost done, Shen Yuyu was about to go out. As soon as he stepped up the steps, he suddenly felt the sound of subtle footsteps above his head. He felt terrible, the man in black was back.
Her first thought was to hide in the portable space, but there were two drawbacks to this. First, she could not observe the situation outside at all after entering the portable space. She also wanted to see what this mysterious man in black was like. What about people.
Second, what if the man in black is still in the secret room when he comes out? This will completely expose him.
So in desperation, Shen Yuxi blew off the fire, rolled over and hid under the bed.
As soon as she hid, the door to the secret room was opened, and the jade-faced man walked down the steps to the secret room.
After entering the secret room, the man fell directly on the bed and got ready to sleep under the quilt.
But I still felt uneasy, and I tossed and turned in bed unable to fall asleep, so I got up again and squatted down at the table in the center of the secret room.
Under the light of the fire, Shen Yuyu could see his side face clearly. Just after taking a look, the man suddenly became alert and suddenly turned his head and glanced under the bed. Fortunately, Shen Yuyu was fast enough and instantly hid in his personal space.
As soon as he entered the space, he fell to the ground, his heart pounding.
She was not afraid of him, but afraid of disturbing him.
This man sometimes serves as a guard, and sometimes serves his father-in-law~~ He may be as good at disguise as she is. Once he is alerted, he will be difficult to find as soon as he leaves the palace or changes his identity.
Shen Yuyu spent the night in the space with some anxiety. She calculated that it would be 1st o'clock the next day. If the man had not seen her, he would have gone to work in the Jade Phoenix Palace.
And she didn't come home all night. She didn't know how anxious she was, so she had to get out quickly.
With this thought in mind, he gritted his teeth and left the portable space.
After coming out, she was still lying under the bed in the secret room. The lamp in the secret room was still on, and there was no one in the quiet room. It seemed that she had not disturbed the man in black yesterday.
Shen Yuyu was overjoyed and got out of the bed and out of the secret room.
In the side hall of Changning Palace, King Xuan woke up in the morning and couldn't find Shen Yuyu anywhere, but he didn't dare to look for him rashly. Just when he didn't know what to do, Shen Yuyu came in.
"Emperor's sister-in-law, you are finally back." King Xuan almost shed tears. If anything happens to the emperor's sister-in-law, how will he report to the emperor's brother? "Why did you leave the emperor's brother? I won't take you into the palace next time." .”
"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Shen Yuyu stepped forward with a smile and patted King Xuan on the shoulder, "If the emperor's brother had gone last night, then we would have definitely alerted each other.'
King Xuan looked nervous, "Is the emperor's sister-in-law in danger? Is she injured?'
"It's not hurt, hehe~~ But if you blame the emperor's sister-in-law, then the emperor's sister-in-law's heart will be hurt."
"Don't blame her. It's good that the emperor's wife came back safely." In addition to blaming her for being bold, King Xuan also had nothing to do with her. He paused and stared at her curiously, "Where did you go last night? What did you find? '
"I found the secret room, in Cining Palace." Shen Yuyu said, and then took out a folding fan and a portrait: "This is what I gained last night. Emperor brother, take a look. Do you recognize the man in the portrait?" '
The portrait was painted by Shen Yuyu in the space last night. It can be said that it is 100% restored. Unfortunately, it is only a side face, but people who are familiar with it should be able to recognize it.
"I don't know~~" King Xuan shook his head, "Maybe my father knows me, do you want to show it to him?"
"No." Shen Yuyu said cautiously, "Last time, 'Little Shenzi' just made a meal, and the Queen was the first to know about it~~ Don't be careless, take it back to the Emperor's uncle first."
"Everyone listens to the emperor's sister-in-law." King Xuan said with admiration.
There was a snake in the Taihe Hall the day before, but no one was found after a whole day of searching. The search continued today, so the snake still hasn't been brought to court.
Prince Xuan greeted the emperor and took Shen Yuyu out of the palace. After returning to the Prince's Mansion for breakfast and tidying up, Shen Yueu and Prince Xuan came to Prince Rui's Mansion again.
"This figure looks similar to Wei Xuanyuan, but the profile is completely different." Prince Rui took the portrait and looked at it over and over for a while, "Wei Xuanyuan has a round face, his chin is not so pointy, and his nose is not very similar. , this person has a bit of a hooked nose.
"I don't think so either." Princess Rui also shook her head.
"Is it possible that my appearance has changed as I get older?" King Xuan said.
"Even if your appearance changes as you get older, the change can't be that big, right?" Prince Rui was surprised.
Shen Yuyu thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he used the art of disguise.'
After inferring, who else could that person be if it weren't Wei Xuanyuan? So I really couldn't find any other answer besides the art of disguise. After looking at the portrait, Shen Yue took out the folding fan.
As soon as the folding fan opened, Princess Rui exclaimed, "I recognize this fan. It belongs to Wei Xuanyuan." As soon as she said this, she found that the fan did not have a pendant. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. She almost immediately thought of the fan she took out from Wei Jinyan's body. Fan pendant.
"This, this beast, this beast~~" Princess Rui's eyes darkened and she fainted.
Only Shen Yue and Princess Rui knew about the fan pendant. At this moment, Princess Rui also believed that Wei Xuanyuan was the devil who killed her daughter.
