Chapter 116 Branches

I just didn't expect that this palace is really big enough. Su Qingxue followed the familiar Mu Qingfeng and had taken the fastest shortcut, but she still felt that she had walked a long distance. The two shuttled through the palace for a long time, and finally touched the side of the emperor's bedroom.

However, at this time, when I came to the emperor's bedroom, I found that the guard here had suddenly increased. The guard was wrapped in three layers, and the guard was particularly strict.

Mu Qingfeng and Su Qingxue could only lean sideways to the hidden place and discuss in a low voice.

"I said, your father's posture is too strict to protect, right? As for it?"

"It's indeed much tighter than before. It seems that it should be the eyeliner of the old fox Muronghen."

"Well, according to our previous plan, I am responsible for attracting their attention, and you will sneak in to find someone when you see the opportunity. I'll find a way to go in and have a round with you later.

"No, I'll still go. It's too dangerous for you."

"Don't worry, my plan is fine. I'll be fine. Look!"

Su Qingxue pointed to the meal box in her hand, and her eyes sparkled with determination.

It turned out that when Mu Qingfeng and Su Qingxue rushed to the emperor's bedroom, when they passed through the imperial dining room, Su Qingxue sneaked into the dining room and stole the meal box to facilitate the next step.

Mu Qingfeng naturally knew that Su Qingxue's method was trustworthy, but he was still worried about her safety and couldn't help but express his concern:

"Then you must be careful."

"Ye, I will."

Su Qingxue turned around and wanted to leave, but was pulled by Mu Qingfeng.

"What?"

Su Qingxue's willow eyebrows frowned slightly and looked at Mu Qingfeng doubtfully.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, her fingers stroked Su Qingxue's face and affectionately pulled off the attachment on her pretty face.

"Fool, I even forgot this!"

The intimate action and ambiguous language made Su Qingxue stay in place for a moment and let him remove the objects from his face.

"Look at you, you're like a little cat. Don't you scare people when you go out?"

Little kitten?!

Although reluctantly, I have to admit that when Mu Qingfeng's warm whisper sounded in Su Qingxue's ear, his heart still couldn't help shaking.

The next moment, he hurriedly grabbed the fragile thing from Mu Qingfeng's hand and quickly turned his face away. However, at this time, his cheeks had been stained with a touch of crimson. Fortunately, it was too dark and the light was dim, and even Mu Qingfeng, who was standing beside him, did not find it.

"Then I'll go."

After Su Qingxue left her words, she tidied up her clothes and walked out with the food box.

Just a few steps, he was stopped by the guard guard of the door.

"Who is it? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?

"It was the master of the imperial dining room who ordered the little one to come here. It is said that everyone has worked hard to guard all night, and specially asked the little one to bring some snacks to comfort everyone.

Su Qingxue deliberately lowered her voice and replied softly.

The guard raised his eyebrows.

"Oh? Is it the order of the general manager of the imperial dining room?! What's the wind blowing today? I usually don't care about us people. Why do you suddenly take care of us today? By the way, who are you? Look up and show me! Your voice sounds strange!"

The bodyguard turned his head and carefully looked at Su Qingxue dressed as an eunuch. A strange face looks particularly beautiful.

Su Qingxue just hooked the corners of her mouth slightly, and her raised little face accompanied by a smiling face:

"I really can't hide anything, big brothers! The little one's name is Xiao Quanzi, who is a new eunuch in the dining room. In fact, the general manager of such a royal dining room is Xiao Quanzi's uncle. Xiao Quanzi knows that his uncle has a strange temper and usually offends his eldest brother, so Xiao Quanzi specially came to atone for his uncle this time.

With that, Su Qingxue slightly opened part of the lunch box to reveal the items in the lunch box.

And the bodyguard looked at the items in the lunch box, and there was a strange light in his eyes, and an evil smile appeared at the corners of his mouth. However, he deliberately pretended to shirk:

"I'm afraid this is not very compliant! If it is known from above, we can..."

"In the middle of the night, if you don't say it, I won't say it, who knows! Besides, this is all the hard work of everyone, and it should be."

"Haha, that's a good word, I love to hear it. You boy, your mouth is so sweet, and you have a bright future!"

Immediately, the bodyguard waved to the guards and greeted them.

Looking at the smile at the corners of the bodyguard's mouth, Su Qingxue followed:

"Thank you for your help in the future. This box of pastries is a little heartfelt of Xiao Quanzi. These cakes were secretly taken out by Xiao Quanzi from the imperial dining room, but they were a little cold. However, the silver "small pastry" next to them should taste good. Please accept it. I hope you can take care of the things that have been offended. Xiao Quanzi is here to accompany everyone for my uncle. I hope you can take more care of him in the future.

With that, Su Qingxue took off the lid of the food box and respectfully handed it to the bodyguard.

The bodyguard naturally took the meal box with joy, and the guards beside them naturally leaned over after receiving the wink.

"It's easy to say! I didn't expect that the head of the dining room had such a clever little nephew as you, which is really his blessing. In your opinion, forget about the past."

It turned out that Su Qingxue's meal box contained not only all kinds of cakes, but also an ingot of silver next to each piece of cake.

No wonder that Su Qingxue delivered all the open food boxes at the same time, the eyes of the guards glowed.

So, the guards gathered together, and you and I dropped the cakes and silver from the meal one by one.

While the guards were all attracted by the silver cakes in the lunch box, Mu Qingfeng took advantage of the diversion of attention and instantly got in. Seeing that Mu Qingfeng had successfully dived in, Su Qingxue naturally retired.

A little arched his hand and said with a clever smile:

"Thank you very much. The big brother enjoyed it slowly, and Xiao Quanzi left first. Oh, by the way, don't mention this to my uncle. You know he loves face!"

"It's easy to say!"

"Then please, everyone. I'll go first. Otherwise, it's not good to be bumped into by someone.

Su Qingxue smiled and then dodged away.

However, Su Qingxue did not leave behind him, but had been hiding in the dark and observing the movements of the guards.

Looking at the guards eating the pastries in the lunch box and having a proud face after spliting the silver, Su Qingxue's smile was deeper.

Now you can laugh, the funny one is still ahead!

Sure enough, after a while, the guards who swallowed the pastries took turns to go to the hut one by one. Looking at them waiting in line one by one, some even look anxious, covering their stomachs and bending down, and walking softly. Su Qingxue, who was hiding aside, smiled secretly. Can she not wait in line to go to the toilet?! It's strange that I sprinkled enough pea flour on the pastry, which made their legs weak. By the way, this pea bean powder works faster than modern laxatives, and it has an immediate effect.

Taking advantage of the gap between several of them going to have diarrhea, they have been dizzy and can't distinguish between you and me. Su Qingxue took the opportunity to "sw" and leaped in.

And after Su Qingxue went in, she found that there was no guard in the huge emperor's bedroom. After searching for a long time, he finally found Mu Qingfeng standing alone in front of a large gold-carved wall.

Su Qingxue was about to step forward, but Mu Qingfeng turned around and looked at her. There seemed to be great anger and pity in her eyes. Complex feelings surged in her deep eyes, which made Su Qingxue's heart quite restless and hurried forward to ask.

"What's wrong? Where's your father?"

Mu Qingfeng's eyes floated to the huge golden wall, and a lifelike dragon was drawn on the wall, swallowing clouds and fog, winding around.

Looking at Mu Qingfeng's expression, Su Qingxue seemed to understand one thing.

"Your father is not behind this wall, is he?"

Su Qingxue said lightly, and then began to carefully check the wall in front of her.

"Yes, he was locked behind the mechanism of the wall by Muronghen."

Mu Qingfeng said hatefully and clenched his fists.

"No need to check, I have checked all the walls. You must have a specific key to open the machine.

"Have you checked it?"

"Yes, look at the dragon spit ball in the dragon's mouth. There is a groove on it."

Following Mu Qingfeng's instructions, Su Qingxue's fingers touched the dragon spit ball. Sure enough, there was a place to sag in.

Father, the child is unfilial. The child made his father suffer.

When the words fell, he heard two knocks behind the wall.

Then Mu Qingfeng knelt down and kowtowed to the wall three times.

"Father, please rest assured that the child will come back to save you."

At this time, Su Qingxue took out a small piece of copper wire from his waist and began to carefully study the internal structure of the groove.

Strangely, the internal structure of this groove seems to be much more complicated than that of modern safes. After using copper wire to explore the bottom, I found that there seemed to be more grooves inside the groove. Just like the chain reaction, to open the next lock, you must first fill the previous vacancy.

Su Qingxue couldn't help frowning. Is it possible that the ancient lock-making technology and exquisite structure have surpassed the modern high-tech safe thousands of years later?!

Looking at Su Qingxue testing the groove with copper wire, Mu Qingfeng quickly got up and grabbed Hao's wrist to stop her movement.

Su Qingxue was a little puzzled. When she was about to ask, Mu Qingfeng whispered beside him:

"Don't move, this lock is a nine-hearted ancient lock, which needs nine keys to be opened in turn. As long as there is a mistake in one place, the lock behind will be automatically locked and will never be opened.

"What? So what should we do now?"

"At night, visit the National Teachers' Office."
