The plan failed and everyone was trapped.
Song Siyuan browsed up and down, her expression became serious:
"I feel now that everything we planned went so smoothly!"
"It's like it happened gradually according to the script. If every step goes as we expected, then this kind of smoothness will be somewhat weird."
"If there is a script, then this script must not be ours, but the Chao family's?"
When Song Siyuan said this, Yue Guanchao and Lou Yunxian didn't know the situation, but they also realized what she meant.
"You mean, they already knew that we would come to check for clues about the Haidong Emperor's Mausoleum. Who leaked the secret?"
Regarding Yue Guanchao's words, Lou Yunxian clearly had something in mind:
"Only Master and I know about your affairs. The rest of the team only knows that you are our new maid servants. Could it be that you are Master?"
Lou Yunxian thought of this. Although reason told him that it was impossible, the fact was that she was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to do.
Song Siyuan looked slightly serious and sighed:
"You can rest assured that Leader Lou is not such a person. The Chao family is on guard, and it may not be just for us?"
"How do you say this?"
Yue Guanchao is eager to know what she thinks!
"The Chao family's script is not only aimed at us, but also at all those who covet the treasure of Haidonghuang!"
Song Siyuan looked at Yue Lou and the others with mysterious eyes:
"You still remember when we went to Yunyue Inn, we saw the Chao family from a height. There were no candles in the back garden. From here on, it is actually the script of the Chao family."
"Think about it, how many ancient tombs have been preserved by the Chao family for thousands of years. Anyone who has ideas about tomb robbing wants to enter the Chao family and find clues so that they can unearth them in one fell swoop and become wealthy and worry-free."
"I believe that there are countless people who have infiltrated the Chao family in various ways to look for clues."
"Could it be that the thousand-year-old family of the imperial family is not aware of this?"
Yue Guanchao suddenly realized, his eyes widened:
"I expected that someone would come looking for clues and appoint someone to dig holes and bury them in the soil, close the door and beat the dogs!"
Song Siyuan nodded towards the two of them:
"Yes, the Chao family will definitely guard and protect the secrets of the Chao family."
"However, there is a saying that only a thousand days can make you a thief, but a thousand days can't prevent a thief."
"Besides, it is better to block than to block. A strict defense will only make the tomb robbers more frustrated and braver. They will extend their tentacles to other courtyards of the imperial palace in order to cast a wider net and catch more fish."
"The imperial family faces many tomb robbers with different purposes and different schools. If they guard against it for many years, everyone will be lax and lazy, and tens of thousands of materials and manpower will be wasted."
"This kind of long-term strict prevention and disrupting the life of the house is completely unworkable. Then, there is only another more labor-saving and more effective way to prevent thieves."
Lou Yunxian's eyes flashed, and his guess blurted out:
"Sit back and wait for the rabbit, please enter the urn."
"yes!"
Song Siyuan looked at Lou Yunxian, talking to a smart person without any effort:
"I think the garden was deliberately released as bait for the Chao family. There are few servants, no lights at night, no patrols, and no defense. As long as they are grave robbers, they will probably think the same thing as us when they see this scene."
"There is a secret in the back garden of the Chao family!"
In a few words, she continued to explain Yue Guanchao's question:
"As long as the tomb robbers realize this, they will definitely find ways to enter the back garden to find out. In this way, they will automatically fall into the trap of the court."
"Guess how the court will treat and deal with the tomb robbers who sneaked into the back garden."
After saying that, the three of them looked at the skeleton on the high-backed chair behind them, feeling chilled in their hearts.
Yue Guanchao then patted his head:
"If you have your way, the Yunyue Inn opposite the Chao Mansion is also their bait, trying to attract the attention of all tomb robbers to the back garden."
"Yes." Song Siyuan paused and looked at him:
"Leng Buding told me there was something in the back garden. I thought there must be an ambush inside."
"But if I discovered the truth bit by bit starting from the inn, I would naturally have no doubts about it. Taking advantage of the situation, seducing in a step-by-step manner, coupled with self-hypnosis, it is a vicious plan for the Chao family."
"Chao Linyuan is probably just one part of the Chao family's bait."
After Song Siyuan said these words, the three of them were so discouraged that they slumped on the ground helplessly. Now that they couldn't get out and couldn't ask for help, they were probably in danger.
"Everyone should take a little breath. In this kind of confined space, the air is limited."
"Put out the fire."
Yue Guanchao took a deep breath, and as the fire was extinguished, the secret room fell into darkness again.
Everyone was in a dark room where they couldn't see their fingers, and the air was getting thinner and thinner. Their originally calm heartbeats rose and fell rapidly, as if there was a stone on their chests, heavy and suffocating.
They are like old people who have been suffering from chronic illness. Every breath they take is like turning on the bellows, and they scream with difficulty.
"I hope Master finds out that we haven't gone back and can find a way to save us!"
Even though Lou Yunxian said this, they also understood that there was little hope.
If the troupe leader is looking for someone to look for him, it means that the troupe is plotting something against the Chao family, so the troupe will have to get involved too!
Master cherishes the troupe so much, why would he be willing to bury the entire troupe with them?
Lou Yunxian thought that he had died in a secret room, and that his body might have rotted and he could not get out. He felt sad and sobbed in his heart.
"Don't cry~"
"Song Qianjin, you don't have to comfort me, just let me cry."
Lou Yunxian said sadly.
"I'm not comforting you. Breathe more when you cry. There is not enough air. The more you cry, the faster you will die."
"..."
As soon as these words came out, Lou Yunxian was silent for a long time as if he was dead.
