And how could Tang Yu be taken away by them quietly?
Even the guards who were guarding outside the palace that day did not notice anything unusual.
If he hadn't left Seventeen next to Tang Yu, he probably wouldn't have known who took Tang Yu away in the end.
Huo Cenji stood up silently and looked around Tang Yu's bedroom, examining it carefully from top to bottom, as if he didn't want to miss any abnormality.
It would be impossible to take Tang Yu away quietly without alerting the people outside.
Then, there is only one possibility -
They were already waiting in there for an opportunity to strike!
A flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in Huo Cenji's mind, and his steps became quicker.
He started looking around the inner hall one by one, and even began to touch the objects with his hands, just to see if there were any mechanisms hidden in the hall as he thought.
Walking around the tea table made of small-leaf red sandalwood, Huo Cenji looked at the bronze wall in the inner hall decorated with dragon-shaped bricks, and finally walked slowly over to take a closer look.
The galloping dragon pattern was majestic, and the surrounding auspicious cloud patterns were lifelike, but Huo Cenji's eyes first fell on the pearl in the dragon's mouth.
A vague intuition in Huo Cenji's heart urged him to give it a try, and the next moment, a bony hand slowly touched the pearl.
The pearl in his hand did not seem to be fixed to the wall.
After this thought flashed through Huo Cenji's mind, the strength in his hands suddenly increased, and then he pressed down hard without hesitation. The loose pearl fell into the mechanism, and the wall with dragon patterns was slowly split into two halves, revealing the secret door behind it.
It turns out... there is indeed a mechanism in the hall.
Huo Cenji suddenly understood and finally understood where they had sneaked into the palace and taken Tang Yu away.
But at the same time, some doubts flashed through his mind -
Tang Yu...does he know that there is a secret passage in his bedroom?
Huo Cenji naturally had no idea about these things, but now that he knew about the secret passage, it meant that if they searched outside along the secret passage, it would be much more useful than the previous search.
As long as we know where this secret passage leads to outside the palace, we will naturally have some direction.
After thinking about it, Huo Cenji's eyes flashed with some spirit, and then he turned and left.
This time, by chance, there is some clue.
However, as soon as Huo Cenji left the hall, the young attendant who happened to be outside the hall took a close look at him.
Wait, was he seeing things?
The young attendant rubbed his eyes vigorously, and after finally confirming that it was indeed the Queen Regent, his doubts began to emerge.
Why is the Regent appearing in Your Majesty's bedroom?
Could it be... that you are here to look for something?
That won’t do!
He must protect His Majesty's things!
So the young attendant, who had seemed somewhat distraught before, suddenly became energetic and immediately rushed into the bedroom.
He searched every place carefully, fearing he had missed something. When his eyes accidentally landed on the bed, he froze in disbelief.
The originally tidy bed is now in a mess, as if... as if someone has slept in it!
Thinking of the Regent who had just appeared, the young official felt like he was hit by a blow!
Then the young attendant trembled, bit his lip and angrily condemned:
"abnormal!"
