Zizhu trembled in shock, but came back to his senses. He immediately raised his hand and pressed his mouth and nose tightly. There was no abnormal sound in the whole process.
After surviving this breath, she immediately lowered her head and stared at Princess Danyang who was looking up at her side with a smile.
'Princess! When did this happen? You are still fooling around! '
Although she couldn't speak, her eyes "roared" out everything she wanted to say without any deviation.
Danyang only smiled and looked back at Zizhu for a moment, secretly held her hand tightly, and then turned to look to the other side.
Zheng'an sat next to her, lazily resting his chin on his hands, half-squinting his eyes, staring at the lively Emperor Xuande on the other side of the translucent partition.
Because the barriers on both sides are covered with a layer of nitrous silk treated with a special method. One side can be completely opaque, denser than coarse cloth, and has better shielding properties. There was nothing on the other side, and it was almost clear when looking at the other side.
In addition, the Baibao Pavilion originally arranged on the opposite side was knocked open, and every move of everyone in the opposite room was clearly displayed in front of Emperor Xuande, Danyang and others.
Therefore, the big shopkeeper who suddenly jumped in front of Xiao Yan and others was startled. In fact, in the eyes of Emperor Xuande and Danyang, his appearance was not unexpected at all.
Just before Xiao Yan really walked towards this place, the middle-aged man who was originally just huddled in the corner had quietly leaned in here.
Therefore, at the very beginning of the third prince's order, he was able to jump up and block the crowd.
"Your Highness! You can't do it. You must not do it! You can't force it!"
Xiao Yan, who was startled and instinctively took a step back, immediately raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"What do you mean I can't do?"
Ever since he was a child, apart from being no longer allowed to act recklessly in the study room and his father's palace, there was nothing he didn't dare to do? !
Although the shopkeeper was so frightened that his calves were spinning, he still stood firmly on the spot, shaking his head and saying in a trembling voice that he was about to cry:
"Your Highness, you don't know something. Behind this partition is the last elegant room on this floor. There is nothing suspicious about it. But that is the place where the old queen came to listen to the opera, and there are also enshrined in it the items that the old queen left in the Lixiang Garden during her lifetime. The white jade Guanyin!"
The thing is not very valuable, but it is equivalent to the white jade Guanyin given by the emperor. If there is anything wrong, your majesty is ruling the country with filial piety...
If someone disrespects him, everyone in the Lixiang Garden will be buried with him!
Therefore, even though the big shopkeeper's face turned green at this moment, he still refused to take a step back, guarding this place and not allowing others to take a step forward.
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but quickly came to his senses and sneered dubiously:
"Oh, you want to get away with it? Dare you make up lies to deceive this prince?"
The big shopkeeper was so anxious that his head was spinning, and his facial features were all clenched together, but he couldn't think of how to make the other party believe it.
Xiao Ni was silent, and before things got out of hand, she took a step forward and advised Xiao Yan:
"Third brother, do you still remember that when my father went to pay homage to the imperial grandmother's palace the year before last, how many people from Changyin Pavilion were specially asked to accompany him?"
Because the old Queen Mother passed away so early, few of their brothers still had an impression of the Queen Mother. Not to mention, little things like the other person’s hobbies and habits.
But everyone knew very well in their hearts that their father really missed and loved the old queen.
Xiao Yan was on this mission to please Emperor Bo Fu, so naturally he didn't want to miss out because of a dead man. Therefore, after hearing this vague news, I was a little hesitant, but I couldn't bear to be curious.
At this time, Xiao Ni's voice came softly again.
"If Third Brother is afraid that something is wrong, why not send someone to check the other side? Whether it is true or false, and whether there is a dark room, we will know at a glance. And for now, it is better to get the results of the search as soon as possible."
Xiao Yan was already moved after hearing half of the words, and when the words came to the end, he immediately made up his mind.
Before Xiao Ni could get up, Xiao Yan reached out, grabbed the shopkeeper by the lapel, lifted him up, threw him to the guard, waved his hand and ordered:
"Go, you guys take this old guy over there to check. If you have any doubts, report them immediately."
After finishing his words, he turned around and personally picked up Xiao Ren, the crown prince of Anyang, who was sitting beside him and was sighing. He walked towards the second room on the other side and ordered:
"The rest of the people, follow me here to search."
Just when Xiao Yan turned around, Emperor Xuande sat upright for the first time.
Hong Ze, who had been quietly working as a wall decoration in the corner, immediately stepped forward and bowed to accept the order.
Danyang didn't hear what Emperor Xuande ordered, but after two breaths, he heard Hong Ze respond in a low voice. He stood up and quickly walked around the heavy curtains and screens, as if preparing for an ambush at the door, and stood behind the door again. Become a wallflower.
And her uncle, the emperor, who had been expressionless since the third prince entered the room, also stood up at this time, silently walked to less than an arm's length away from the gunpowder, and looked at the opposite side seriously.
Danyang also followed closely, and tried his best to prick up his ears and pay attention to all the sounds of the third prince.
Although all the previous arrangements and predictions had come true, the thing she wanted to hear and know the most was not heard at this moment.
Seeing that the time to close the net was approaching, she couldn't help but feel anxious secretly in her heart.
Or, could she achieve her wish faster by using another method?
As soon as I thought about this, the sound of unlocking was heard outside the door, and cheers of success were also heard from the other side of the gunk.
"Found it! Your Highness, come and take a look. Behind this painting is a hidden compartment!"
This excited shout frightened Zizhu, who had already put his heart in his throat. He could not help but hold on to Princess Danyang beside him.
His eyes were constantly jumping back and forth between the other side of the saltpeter and the invisible door behind the screen.
She didn't know what she was afraid of at the moment, but even the emperor was hiding in this elegant room, peeking silently, so he obviously didn't want anyone to notice. So now, are you afraid that the secret will be revealed? !
But contrary to Zizhu's nervousness, Emperor Xuande and Princess Danyang on the side looked as calm as if they were watching a show. And they didn't pay any attention to the environment they were in. Instead, they focused on looking at the opposite side of the gunpowder.
Not to mention what these two wanted to see. There are so many people on the opposite side, it's a mess, everyone is far away at this moment, what else can you see clearly?
Out of curiosity, Zizhu simply stopped looking at the heavy gauze and screen that were impossible to see through, and only stared at the saltpeter.
At this time, Xiao Yan's personal followers removed the hanging paintings and excitedly showed the evidence found to everyone.
After the young leader of the Imperial Guard made a few words of admiration, he secretly sighed in his heart that he and his subordinates would never dare to mess with the prince's place like this.
It's not that he has neglected his duties, but he is really not sure whether the future King Anyang can turn around and avoid this disaster.
Their positions are low and their positions are low, but they are not as powerful as the third prince and can have no scruples.
After Xiao Yan found the secret grid as he wished, he lived up to everyone's expectations.
He chuckled and pushed Anyang Prince Xiao Ren to the ground. He strode forward and rummaged through the secret room for key evidence while mocking Xiao Ren and said:
"I told you to tell the truth, but if you have to..."
At this point, Xiao Yan's expression suddenly stiffened.
