Chapter 115 Secret Road
After walking two steps, Jun Jiuning suddenly remembered something, so he patted Qiuyue holding his arm: "Don't go back now, look for Lord Mu."
Qiuyue said suspiciously: "Is there anything else for the princess?"
"A small matter." Jun Jiuning blinked, turned around, and walked towards the road where she and Jun Qingli had whispered and were caught by Mu Yun.
Before, she was thinking about taking Mu Yun out of the palace, but after being disturbed by him, Jun Jiu felt guilty and did not mention it again.
Now that the Regent gave her the token of leaving the palace, she could enter and exit the Liang Palace at will, and by the way, she would give Mu Yunxing a favor, which could be considered as giving the other party a favor.
Jun Jiuning has always liked to calculate clearly with others and feel at ease without any owed.
After passing the arch connecting the front and back yards of the Qing Palace, Jun Jiuning suddenly felt much more deserted.
It seems that even the birds in the backyard are not as lively as those in the front yard, and there are not many people on the road.
Jun Jiuning just thought that Jun Qingli went to the banquet and took away many people. The people who happened to live in the backyard were not here today, so they were as pure as the deep mountains and forests.
She has been tired enough in the past two days. She didn't want to talk when she arrived in such a quiet place, so she walked slowly.
Qiuyue also supported her obediently, without saying much.
Soon the path ended, and the guards guarding the arch had already told Jun Jiuning that Mu Yun's residence was in the most pure Youming residence. After passing the arch, he would just walk to the end.
Jun Jiuning saw the courtyard with red roofs and white walls, but strangely, the gate here is also locked and no one is guarding it.
Jun Jiuning felt that she was really evil.
How do you find someone who is not here?
Qiuyue glanced at Jun Jiuning sympathetically: "Princess, why don't we find a place to wait?"
Jun Jiuning looked around and muttered, "One of them, how dare I let this princess wait..."
She saw a flat, smooth and clean rock, and she lay not far from her, looking very comfortable.
Jun Jiuning turned his head: "Wait and wait, who made this princess magnanimous?"
Qiuyue laughed in her mouth, her eyes curled: "What the princess said."
Jun Jiuning walked over, sat on the stone, and immediately let out a "huh".
Qiuyue thought the stone slab was too cold, so she was frozen by the ice, so she hurriedly said, "Princess, get up quickly, I will give you a piece of handkerchief..."
Jun Jiuning stood up and held Qiuyue's hand that was about to put the silk scutellar up. He shook his head: "It's not because of this."
She felt amazing and immediately noticed something was wrong with the stone.
If it is a normal big stone, if it is placed properly, it will only remain silent when it goes down, even if three or five big men come to sit together.
But Jun Jiuning just sat hard and felt that the big stone was moving slightly.
This is not consistent with common sense.
She squatted down and looked at the soil under the big rock. As expected, the soil underneath was soft and wet, and it was obvious that it was the new soil that had been turned over.
Jun Jiuning can be 100% sure that this stone can move, and not only can it move, but also is often moved by people.
Jun Jiuning walked to the side of Dashi and waved to Qiuyue: "You go to the other end and do me a favor."
This stone is definitely not as heavy as imagined, and there is absolutely no problem with the two people's strength to push it.
Qiuyue has followed Jun Jiuning for so long and trusts her princess’ current investigation ability and immediately does what she said.
Jun Jiuning shouted, "One, two, three, use force!"
The two of them exerted force at the same time, lifting the stone to the side, and with a "crunch". The moment the big stone fell to the ground, Jun Jiuning heard the sound of the mechanism being touched from the ground, and then an underground passage slowly appeared in front of the two.
Qiu Yue was so shocked that she covered her mouth and stared at Jun Jiuning with her eyes widened: "Princess, this is the secret passage of the Liang Palace!"
Jun Jiuning looked at the dark underground passage and narrowed his eyes, and a bad guess appeared in his heart.
Mu Yun and the Regent have been colluding for a long time, and now they are afraid they have formed an indestructible alliance.
Otherwise, how could the Regent also tell Mu Yun about the location of the secret passage of Liang State?
Moreover, the traces of this secret passage are very new, which shows that the two have met a lot recently. What conspiracy do they have now? Could it be that they dare to blatantly harm envoys from various countries in the Liang Palace?!
"Qiuyue, I'll go and see, you're on it and watch for me." Jun Jiuning took off all the things that were easily fallen on her body, handed them to Qiuyue's hand, and instructed her.
Qiuyue held the thing and shook her head desperately: "Princess, don't go down. Maybe there are soldiers from Liang State guarding this secret passage. What if the princess is detained!"
Jun Jiu touched her head and smiled and said, "Didn't you ask you to stay here? If I haven't come back for a stick of incense, you can go and find the prince to save me. It's okay, I'll go down and take a look and will come back soon."
She lifted her robe and stepped into the secret passage.
There is nothing special about this secret passage. There is no totems, jewelry, or candlesticks on the stone wall.
The more Jun Jiuning walked inside, the more dim the more he felt.
She took out a fire note from her waist and tried to hit it a few times, but she couldn't.
Jun Jiuning smiled helplessly in the darkness: "It seems that he was soaking the fire when he was in the rain."
She has been busy back to the palace until now, and she hasn't even changed her clothes yet.
Jun Jiuning stuffed the fire slash back to his waist indifferently and continued to walk forward.
When his eyes adapted to the darkness, Jun Jiuning gradually saw something clearly.
It was at this time that she realized that the stone walls in the corridor were really different.
Just now when she was at the secret passage, she felt that the stone was nothing special, it was gray and not very beautiful.
But in the extreme darkness, she found that there were countless tiny sand on the wall, emitting a shimmering light.
These sands are part of the stone wall, and the entire secret passage is made of stone walls, so it is not easy to be discovered.
Jun Jiuning reached out and touched it. The wall was rough and it seemed no different. But what kind of stone this was actually glowing. Why didn't she see it before?
Jun Jiuning silently recorded the strangeness of the stone and planned to go out and inquire.
The sound of footsteps came from the depths of the secret passage, and Jun Jiuning's hair suddenly stood up.
"Tap, tap, tap"
Jun Jiuning held the wall and tried not to make any noise, and quietly pulled out the dagger from his waist.
In the empty corridor, there were only light footsteps echoing, as if the ghost in the underworld of hell was seeking his life.
Jun Jiuning retreated a corner and continued to grop and leave.
But the extremely clear footsteps suddenly stopped.
Jun Jiuning's mentality almost exploded: Could it be that thing could see him? After she passed the corner, he lost Jun Jiuning's trace for a while, and he didn't know whether he should continue moving forward.
