Entering the secret door, there is a slender corridor inside, with green luminous pearls inlaid on both sides, exuding a faint light, as if lifting a corner of the night curtain, illuminating the darkness in front of you.
Yin Xue controlled the speed so as not to disturb the man who had gone in before, while Yao Mowan followed behind with a cold face. At that time, the purpose of building this secret passage was to secretly communicate with Mangyuan's confidants, and he did not let Ye Hongyi know.
She only wanted to give Ye Hongyi a surprise when the time came. Later, she told Ye Hongyi about the existence of this secret passage in a moment of bad words. At this moment, she was really glad that she did not tell Mangyuan, otherwise, she should have relied on
What can we do to reverse the current bad situation?
"Master, that man has entered Changle Palace, should we follow him?" Seeing the man's figure disappearing into the secret passage, Yin Xue asked for instructions.
"No need." Yao Mowan put away the memories of the past, then suddenly turned around and walked to the night pearl on the left side of the secret passage. She turned her jade finger left and right twice, and saw a secret door suddenly appeared in front of her eyes. After that, Yao Mowan had nothing to do.
He walked in warily, and Yin Xue followed him.
Behind the secret door is a stone room with simple furnishings. There is no decoration except for a stone platform and four wooden chairs. Just when Yin Xue was checking whether there was any danger, Yao Mowan had already walked into the stone room and was close to Changle Palace.
After opening the secret compartment on the wall, almost at the same time, the sound from inside suddenly came in.
"My subordinate Zhou Gui comes to greet the second prince!" Zhou Gui knelt down on one knee, his sonorous voice revealing the exhaustion that could not be concealed. The journey was dusty, and Zhou Gui was obviously a little exhausted.
"Get up, what's the current situation in Qi? How are your father, the emperor, mother and concubines doing?" The person who spoke was none other than the second prince of Qi, Feng Duo, the heir to the throne that the old King of Qi favored.
"Back to the second prince, the Supreme Emperor has no choice but to be under house arrest by Feng Yihan, but Concubine Hua..." Zhou Gui stopped talking.
"Concubine... what did that beast Feng Yihan do to concubine!" Feng Duo Yushu Linfeng's face suddenly became clouded, and his hands were clenched into fists.
"My condolences to the Second Prince! Feng Yihan lied and claimed that he had found evidence that Concubine Hua poisoned the Queen. Three days ago...he ordered Concubine Hua to die..." Zhou Gui knelt on his knees.
, a sad report, knocking his head to the ground.
"What! The concubine is dead? How dare Feng Yihan! I'm going to kill him! Ah—" Feng Duo suddenly heard the blue veins on his forehead, his eyes were red, and he threw down the tea set on the table with both hands.
. Seeing Feng Duo trying to rush into the secret room, Zhou Gui hugged him.
"Second Prince! It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. If you go out now, you will only lose your life! If anything happens to you, who will avenge Concubine Hua? I believe that Concubine Hua knows something secretly and does not want you to be like this.
You lost your life in vain!" Zhou Gui consoled him with heartfelt words and hugged Feng Duo with both hands.
"Feng Yihan! Feng Yihan! I will definitely cut you into pieces! Break your bones into ashes!" After some struggle, Feng Duo finally stabilized.
In the secret room, Yao Mowan couldn't help but shake her head. Such a city is not even one-tenth of Feng Yihan's. When he knew that his mother was killed by Concubine Hua, Feng Yihan could still show respect to Concubine Hua without changing his expression. He
It's true that my heart doesn't hurt, but I can endure it in front of my enemies and smile in response. Feng Yihan at that time was just like me at this time. The brighter the smile on his face, the more his heart hurt.
"Second Prince, the plan to defect is now very important. When my subordinates return to Qi this time, they have already recorded the number of civil servants and generals in the court who are willing to follow the Supreme Emperor and the Second Prince. Now as long as Dachu is willing to send troops to help the Second Prince return to Qi, then by
Those who support us should cooperate internally and externally, and they will definitely overthrow Feng Yihan!" Zhou Guiyan spoke decisively, and while speaking, he took out a piece of rice paper with names written on it from his sleeve and handed it to Feng Duo.
"Fortunately, these people are not ungrateful. With their support, I believe that the second prince's accession to the throne is just around the corner." Zhou Gui continued.
"These people have their clues in the hands of this prince, otherwise do you think they are willing to take risks! As for Ye Hongyi..." Feng Duo subconsciously looked around, but when he saw no movement, he sat down with anger.
Come down.
"Ye Hongyi is simply adding insult to injury. He actually asked this prince to promise him that after the event is completed, he will take over ten cities of Qi State. This is simply taking away half of Qi State!" Just think of what Ye Hongyi put in front of him at that time.
After receiving the certificate of credence and being granted the title of Duo, he gnashed his teeth in hatred.
"Ten cities! This King of Chu is too shady. He knew we couldn't refuse, but he actually opened his mouth. Then how did you answer him?" Zhou Gui angrily scolded.
"You've already said you can't refuse, how else can I answer him?" Feng Duo slapped the table fiercely, his eyes sparkling.
"Second Prince, let's deal with it first. After you return to the Qi Kingdom, everything will still change." Zhou Gui's implication was that after the matter is completed, it will be done.
"Do you think Ye Hongyi is a fool? The credential states clearly that after the war, every time a city is conquered, a surrender edict must be signed immediately, until ten cities have been signed!" Feng Duo growled bitterly.
"The King of Chu is too shady, so you agreed?" Zhou Gui looked at Feng Duo suspiciously.
"I would rather be Ye Hongyi's puppet than let Feng Yihan have an easy time! The credentials have been signed, and now I have a list. Now everything is ready, all I need is Dongfeng! Send a message immediately to tell the people on the list,
Ten days later, this prince will definitely fight back to the Qi Kingdom and personally kill Feng Yihan in the Jinluan Palace!" Feng Duo spoke fiercely, his eyes shining like ice that has not melted on the snow-capped mountains for thousands of years.
"I obey!" Zhou Gui got the order and immediately turned around and retreated into the secret passage.
Zhou Guiwan did not expect that his departure would be the farewell to Feng Duo. When Feng Duo's scarred body was found hanging at the gate of Changle Palace, the relationship between Qi and Chu fell into an unprecedented tense stage.
Originally, Ye Hongyi's killing of Feng Duo would bring no harm to Feng Yihan, but the mistake was that Feng Duo's body was treated so unreasonably. The royal family had its own way of death, and Feng Duo was also a Qi after all.
The prince, doing this is undoubtedly a slap in Feng Yihan's face. This is one of them.
Secondly, people in Qi and Chu now all know that Ye Hongyi has a list of Qi's traitorous courtiers, and has proposed to the King of Qi to exchange the list with three cities, which makes Ye Hongyi become a ungrateful person.
.
"Who killed Feng Duo? And put the blame on me? Who is it!" 'Pah!' In the pavilion of the Royal Garden, Ye Hongyi violently threw out the wine bottle in his hand and roared through gritted teeth.
Splashed fragments were inserted into the back of Qinglong's hand, and blood gurgled out, but Qinglong did not dare to say a word. He knew very well the emperor's state of mind at this moment. After all, Feng Duo's death not only caused the emperor to lose the opportunity to control Qi, but also
The relationship between Qi and Chu could no longer be repaired. Most importantly, Feng Duo's death had nothing to do with the emperor. The emperor was taking the blame for others.
"Your Majesty, calm down. Your subordinates will try their best to find the person who framed the Emperor." Qinglong couldn't guarantee that he would be able to find this person. After all, Feng Duo's death was mysterious and there was no trace.
"We must find this person, I will cut him into pieces!" Ye Hongyi almost roared, a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"Yes!" Qinglong accepted the order and exited the pavilion.
In the dark, Yao Mowan looked at Ye Hongyi's frantic expression, with a sneer on her lips. Feng Duo died in Changle Palace. No matter how Ye Hongyi explained it, it would only become darker and darker, and anyone who was interested would do it.
He thought that it was because Feng Duo failed to satisfy Ye Hongyi's ambition that he was killed by Ye Hongyi, and then used that list to bargain with Feng Yihan. No matter what, this matter was a nightmare for Ye Hongyi
