Chapter 529 Destination: Inner Treasury of the Imperial Palace
"But aren't there many experts guarding the warehouses in the palace?" Lu Ziqing was a little worried. The place they were going to should be the inner treasury of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, a small royal treasury that should be guarded more strictly than the national treasury.
"This is already the inner courtyard of the palace. How can there be so many guards?" Su Xi said, "Don't worry. There will be no guards at all in that place."
Then Lu Ziqing followed Su Xi east and west, and he really didn't meet a single guard. All he met were eunuchs and maids. No wonder Su Xi asked him to wear eunuch clothes. If he wore guard clothes, it would be too conspicuous.
"The guards are all outside the imperial city." Su Xi said, "But among the eunuchs and maids, there are many masters who are no worse than the guards. You have to be careful."
Lu Ziqing nodded, and then he saw Eunuch Wei, leading a few eunuchs and maids from a distance, playing hide and seek in the courtyard.
Su Xi was very calm: "Don't be afraid, we can just pass by normally."
Lu Ziqing then followed Su Xi, the two of them lowered their heads slightly and walked away from the wall. As expected, no one paid attention to them.
Mr. Wei is pretending to be a ghost, lying in front of the rockery and counting while blindfolded. A group of little eunuchs and maids are running around with smiles. The scene is very warm.
After passing through this place, Lu Ziqing used his sword to complain to Su Xi. If Eunuch Wei had such a high level of cultivation, playing hide and seek with a few children, wouldn't it be a lie?
Su Xi said: "No, Eunuch Wei doesn't use his cultivation to play hide and seek. He is all serious."
Lu Ziqing thought it was funny. The painting style really didn't look like the inner courtyard of the palace.
Su Xi said: "There are very few concubines in the palace, and there are few right and wrong. Ji Guang and Pang Min don't like to be served by others, let alone being an eyesore around them. So at night, Eunuch Wei and the others are very happy."
Lu Ziqing thought about it and realized that, with Pang Min and his wife's cultivation, it would be too difficult to kill them. Moreover, a bitch would die quickly when meeting Pang Min. There would be less disputes in the palace and the environment would be harmonious.
There were even fewer people walking in, and Su Xi walked all the way to the side halls. Finally, he led Lu Ziqing to step on the wall like a cat, walking quietly under the crescent moon.
Lu Ziqing discovered that the route chosen by Su Xi looked very nice. The moonlight illuminated the Forbidden City and the rooftops were very beautiful.
Su Xi pointed at a net hanging under the eaves of the palace beam, and Lu Ziqing saw that it was covered with moths. The net was made of unknown silk threads, and there was a trace of silver light flowing in the moonlight.
As thin as spider silk.
"Wind catching net!" Su Xi didn't even dare to use the sword's heart, so she whispered in Lu Ziqing's ear in a very low voice, "Be very careful when you see this thing. If you use the sword energy, you will be attracted by it and draw you away.
guard."
Lu Ziqing nodded and followed Su Xi to a dark place, which seemed to be a palace where no one lived. Not only were there no guards, there were no figures at all.
"Be careful, a dragon guarding the night will pass by soon."
Su Xi leaned down and grabbed the top of the wall with her hands to climb on it. Lu Ziqing also followed suit. The two of them hung on the top of the wall, like two salted fish.
A dragon shadow swayed in the night sky and passed by, inspected it for a while, and then left.
Su Xi jumped up on the wall again, clapped her hands and said, "Okay! From now on, no one will care if you walk sideways."
Lu Ziqing secretly thought that Su Xi must have been wandering around in the middle of the night with nothing to do, and was very familiar with the walls and organs of the palace. At this moment, Su Xi was strutting around on the wall like a proud cat, looking like this
It's all my territory. Lu Ziqing said in his heart, when you become a queen and you are like a wall-walker, I really don't know what to say.
"We're here." Su Xi jumped into a courtyard. The palace door was closed, but the courtyard was still quite clean. Someone should clean it every day.
"What are we looking for?" Lu Ziqing asked softly.
Su Xi said: "Among the things I gave as a dowry back then, there was a treasure of our sect, which was the skin of a sky-swallowing beast. We want to find this skin and use it to make drum heads. But now it is stored in the inner warehouse. If I directly
Ask the manager for it, and it would be a bit uncomfortable if people find out that I gave it to you."
Lu Ziqing thought about it and realized it. Queen Xiaoyun usually had no sense of presence in the palace. If she suddenly went to the inner treasury to get the dowry and gave it to herself, it would be easy for her to be criticized. Whether it was Su Xi or herself, she would
Being suspected of having an affair.
Yu Xuzi must have thought of this treasure, so he asked Su Xi to help. But this was the dowry given to Su Xi by the Xiaoyun Sect. A master cannot ask for it from his disciples, so Yu Xuzi did not explain it directly to Su Xi.
It was Lu Ziqing, the younger brother, who was asked to speak. With Su Xi's ice and snow intelligence, he must have figured it out in no time.
Su Xi came to the door of the inner warehouse, stretched out her hand and pressed on the door. A rune of light lit up and spread out in all directions. The door opened with a gap that could accommodate one person.
Lu Ziqing was stunned when he walked in.
I saw that this warehouse was full of shelves and boxes of various sizes, with all kinds of treasures on them, exuding a bright treasure light that dazzled Lu Ziqing. Every box is a treasure box, here
There are probably eight thousand, if not ten thousand, treasures. But what’s even more eye-catching is that most of the shelves and boxes have big seals that read: “Mine!” “Mine!” “All of them.”
It’s mine!” “No one is allowed to take it!”
Lu Ziqing looked at these seals. They were all stamped with the prince's seal. It turned out that these now belonged to the prince. These seals were made with the sword seals of the Xiaoyun Sect. They were not immortal masters of the Xiaoyun Sect who were very proficient in sword seals. There was no way they could understand it.
Don't open it. Thinking about it, it's probably because the prince has been away from the palace for a long time and is afraid that someone will take away his belongings.
"These seals were put on by Li'er when he was a child. He was always afraid that his things would be robbed."
Su Xi said and closed the door, squatted in front of a box, gently used her fingers to write the Chinese character "天" on the talisman with sword energy, and then casually lifted the seal.
Lu Ziqing sweated furiously, it turns out that you have already cracked it? Also, the password seems a bit too simple. Did the prince often get robbed when he was a child? He feels so insecure!
Su Xi explained: "When Li'er was a child, he was always worried that other people in the palace, especially Pang Min's younger brothers and sisters, would take away everything from him. One day he was in Huyang and was raised by Pang Min as a 'pig treasure'
I beat him, and after I came back, I put seals on all the things that originally belonged to me in the inner treasury. Ji Guang also had a headache about this, but in order to appease him, he promised that no one else would encroach on these properties, so these
The seal has remained.”
