Chapter 408 Hidden



Upon hearing this, Qing Chan took Si Jinxing away without saying a word.

Bai Xi, who was in the dark, sighed and said:

"The princess is really becoming more and more disloyal. When there's something fun, she only takes Qingchan with her and not me?"

Si Jinxing heard this, looked at Bai Xi who was walking over, and came up with a plan. He said mysteriously:

"I have something even more fun, perfect for you!"

Bai Xi approached with doubt, but when he heard what the princess said, his eyes widened and he burst into laughter!

When it comes to having fun, it has to be your own princess!

After arranging Bai Xi, Si Jinxing went into the house to change into night clothes, but heard Bai Shao say:

"Miss, Uncle Ling from the Si Mansion next door is here."

Ling Su?

Si Jinxing nodded and asked Bai Shao to bring people in.

Ling Su bowed to Si Jinxing as soon as he entered the room and said:

"Miss, the master asked his subordinates to deliver this."

As he spoke, he placed the rosewood box in his hand on the table in front of Si Jinxing.

Si Jinxing frowned, looked at Ling Su and said:

"Uncle Ling, please take a seat. This is probably the wealth of the Si family, right?"

Ling Su was not shy either. He sat on the stool opposite Si Jinxing and nodded.

“The master said that we shouldn’t have agreed to play this scene with the young lady.

He was afraid that if he wasn't careful, he would fall into Si Jinyun's trap and not be able to leave any inheritance for the young lady.

I asked my subordinates to pick up most of them and send them here first."

Si Jinxing opened the box and saw a thick stack of shop deeds and banknotes inside.

She didn't say anything else and left the box.

She will keep this thing for Si Junshan for the time being.

Seeing this, Ling Su couldn't help but feel happy for his own master, and returned to the Si Mansion happily.

Si Jinxing did not delay either. She changed into her night clothes and took Qingchan, no, Qingchan took her, all the way to Prince Rui's Mansion.

When they reached the entrance of the alley not far from Prince Rui's Mansion, Qing Chan slowed down his pace, stopped, and said:

"Princess, the Rui Palace is always heavily guarded. We will be easily discovered if we go in like this!"

Si Jinxing nodded and said:

"So, later, I will sneak into the mansion alone, and you just wait for me here!"

Qingchan said with a worried look on his face:

"Princess, why don't we go back?

The prince is not in Jianzhou City now. What will happen if something happens to you?"

Si Jinxing waved her hand nonchalantly, pointed at the roof, and said, "Take me up there."

As the saying goes, the higher you stand, the farther you can see.

She stood on the roof and casually glanced at the guards in the front yard of Prince Rui's Mansion diagonally opposite. The distribution map was basically the same as the one Zheng Ranran had given her.

She glanced at Qingchan and said:

"It's okay. I've been to this Prince Rui's Mansion many times and I'm familiar with the terrain."

When she said this, she estimated the direction and distance with her eyes, and as soon as she finished speaking, she slipped into Xinglin Yaxu.

Because of the parking lot, the distance she could walk in a straight line in Xinglin Yaxu increased by more than ten times!

She easily avoided the guards outside the door and walked through the wall into the front yard.

She followed the route she remembered in her mind. She first went to Qi Nanyue's study. Seeing that the room was empty, she went in and looked through everything, and then went straight to her destination for tonight.

Si Jinxing avoided the patrolling guards in the palace and reached the stone mountain in the palace garden.

She looked cautiously into the rockery cave, and it was pitch black!

She only felt a chill on her back, but she mustered up her courage and walked inside.

After about five meters, the way was blocked by a stone gate.

With the help of Xinglin Yaxu, Si Jinxing walked five meters inside before slipping out.

But when she came out, she found that the road in the cave was downhill!

She couldn't help but scream, then quickly shut her mouth. Someone inside scolded:

"Who is it?"

Si Jinxing quickly slipped into Xinglin Yaxu and leaned against the door with a somewhat weak body.

She heard someone approaching from afar. Perhaps after looking around and not seeing anyone, she wondered:

"Did I hear it wrong?"

Soon, the man's footsteps gradually moved inside, and Si Jinxing, who was in Xinglin Yaxu, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Relying on her memory of the glimpse she had just taken of the cave, she walked five steps to the right and front. When she came out again, she touched the base of the wall of the secret room.

She casually glanced around the outer room and walked inside.

The passage to the secret room was not very long. After she walked for about two minutes, she saw another stone door blocking her way.

When Si Jinxing went out of Xinglin Yaxu again, she chose to sit on the ground, fearing that she would encounter a downhill road and stumble.

This time, she was worrying too much.

After passing through the stone gate, the place suddenly becomes bright!

She immediately leaned against the wall and took a quick look around the secret room!

At the top of the secret room, a huge night-shining pearl was hung with a gauze net, making the secret room as bright as day!

Rather than saying this is a secret room, it’s better to say it is an underground treasure trove!

How big is it?

The entire secret room was about as big as Qi Nanche's carriage, with ten stone caves built on each side, like rooms in a house.

These stone houses are surrounded by walls on three sides, but there is no wall on the side facing the corridor.

So, standing in the corridor, you can see all the objects placed in the houses at a glance!

There are many treasures in Si Jinxing's private treasury and Xinglin Yaxu, and they can be said to have seen the world.

But today, at this moment, she was shocked by the room full of jewels, gold, silver and jade!

It is said that King Heng Qi Nanye is rich enough to rival a country!

Who would have thought that Qi Nanyue was actually a hidden talent!

All her belongings combined wouldn't even be one percent of what this secret room holds!

Si Jinxing's heart was surging when she heard a man's voice coming from a stone house in front of her:

"Prince Mo Ying has already left Xuzhou Prefecture and will reach the south gate of Fencheng in five days.

The food and fodder they brought was only enough to last for ten days or half a month.

By then....”

Then came Qi Nanyan's voice:

"Yes, Fencheng is a small border town, let them go.

There's a forest between Xuzhou Prefecture and Fencheng. Have you asked anyone to prepare for it?"

The man just now said:

"Of course, everything has been arranged. Your Highness, please rest assured."

Then, there was the sound of gold coins colliding, clattering...

Si Jinxing held her breath. Mountains and forests?

Without having time to think, she slipped into Xinglin Yaxu.

The footsteps of the two people came closer and closer, passed the stone house where she was, and soon disappeared into the secret room.

When Si Jinxing came out again, the secret room was already empty!

Her eyes dimmed slightly. It turned out that Qi Nanyue was manipulating the matter of food and grass behind the scenes!

She didn't dare to delay and started moving bricks...

But this is just too much...
