Chapter 1412 Abandoned
Those people from the Shenyi Sect suddenly disappeared when they were still a hundred meters away from the city wall.
"Have they entered the secret passage?"
Lan Rong and others were watching from the city wall. They saw those people deviate from the official road and go into the bushes nearby. They soon disappeared and they suspected that they must have entered a secret passage.
"Very likely."
"I never thought there was a secret entrance outside the city gate. The people of Shenyi Sect really know more than us."
Everyone was a little nervous.
"It's unlikely. Unless they dug it themselves later." Lan Rong felt that it was unlikely to dig a secret passage here at the city gate.
"Well, it is very likely that they dug it. The people from the Shenyi Sect have been in Dongqing for so long, so it is normal for them to dig a secret passage here first."
"But why do they have to do this? Do they have to set up so many things and wait for our prince to come?"
Sixteen and the others also felt strange, "How can they be sure that the prince will come to Dongqing in the end?"
"Yeah, couldn't they just occupy the palace? What's the point of all this?"
Just when they all felt very strange, the master of Youqing Temple came over.
"I know why."
The master of Youqing Temple has been checking the national fortune of Dongqing these days, trying to find out whether it has shown any signs of revival.
I also want to calculate what Dongqing’s future will be like.
He had people restart all the mechanisms of the observatory, and then discovered that someone had actually used the observatory before them.
He also figured out one thing.
"Dongqing is going to rise, and the location of the imperial city and the imperial palace has to change. The original imperial palace and the emperor's dragon throne have come to an end, so if someone finds out about this, even if Dongqing hadn't been destroyed at the beginning, they would probably suggest moving the imperial capital."
The words of the master of Youqing Temple made them understand instantly.
Sixteen suddenly realized.
"I see!"
Lan Rong also said, "No wonder they had already found the capital, the palace, and entered the underground palace, but still gave up here!"
"The Shenyi Cult is convinced that if Dongqing wants to become powerful again, it can no longer use the original imperial city and palace?"
The master of Youqing Temple nodded.
"It seems to be true now, so they are also going to abandon this capital. I came here to see if they really dug a tunnel and didn't care about destroying the defenses of this part of the capital."
"You also have to be careful. They have buried explosives in the tunnel. If they explode when they reach the city gate, casualties are inevitable."
Hearing what Master Youqing said, Lan Rong's expression changed slightly.
"If they find us, they will most likely use explosives."
Because they have discovered a certain smell and some fallen powder in some secret passages in the past few days.
After taking it to Fu Zhaoning for testing, it was discovered that it was something that could be used to make firecrackers.
The things that were transported away through the secret passage would naturally not be firecrackers, so Prince Jun guessed that they already had explosives.
"Then let them in and hide them first."
Xiao Lanyuan rushed over.
He had gone to another place to investigate and confirmed that no one else was attacking from another direction before bringing people to the city wall.
He also heard what the master of Youqing Temple said.
Originally they didn't want to let the people from the Shenyi Sect in, but for the sake of the city tower, they decided to let them in first. Once they got in, would they still be afraid that they couldn't defeat them?
"hidden."
"Your Highness, we must first find the exit of their secret passage." Lan Rong said.
