Chapter 201 Together? (Update 1)
Concubine Ru's heart skipped a beat and she immediately interrupted him.
"Chengxuan, don't worry. With Yanchuan here, everything will be fine."
Meeting her warning look, Xiao Chengxuan suddenly woke up - he had just said too much!
If it was really found out that Ye Zheng’s death three years ago was related to Ye Heng, my father would definitely have some thoughts.
After all, he demoted Ye Zheng to leave Beijing only because he was angry and wanted to punish him, but he had no intention of killing him.
If it weren't for the imperial edict of demotion, Ye Zheng and his family might not have died.
Isn't it intentional to make trouble for the Emperor by bringing this up now?
Xiao Chengxuan said quickly: "Mother is right, I worry too much."
There was no expression on Emperor Mu Wu's face, and no emotion could be seen.
Inside the hall, no one dared to say much and only exchanged glances secretly.
Everything was fine, but who knew something like this would suddenly happen. Who can celebrate this Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet without any worries now?
Everyone is waiting for news from Shen Yanchuan, and no one knows what the situation is...
Xiao Chengxuan's hands tightened and loosened, and it took a lot of effort to restrain his urge to get up and ask to leave.
At this time, he could no longer attract attention. However, when he thought of the news he had just heard, Xiao Chengxuan felt uneasy.
——A big fire broke out in the Han family, but Han Yao was not dead!
Although he was still unconscious and couldn't do anything, for some reason, Xiao Chengxuan couldn't calm down and always felt that something bad was going to happen.
The palace maid brought a new wine glass, and Xiao Chengxuan drank it all in one gulp in annoyance.
Now, all he could do was wait.
…
The moon is high in the sky.
The smell of something burning filled my nose, and all I could see was ruins.
When you get closer, you can still feel the burning sensation that has not completely dissipated.
"Master, Miss Ye Er, please be careful with your steps."
Lian Zhou led the way carefully in front.
There were charred objects scattered all over the front and back yards, leaving almost no place to step.
How could ordinary people have ever seen such a scene?
However, Ye Chutang followed behind with a normal look on his face.
Hearing this, she smiled faintly: "Don't worry about me. My second uncle's house also caught fire before. It was not as tragic as this one, but it was also very unfortunate and regrettable."
The implication was that this was not the first time she had seen this scene and there was nothing to be surprised about.
Lian Zhou said "eh", and caught a glimpse of Ye Shixian's blue face not far behind him. He finally suppressed the urge to laugh, coughed again, and led his people forward.
A quarter of an hour later, the group found the entrance to the secret passage.
"It's here." Lian Zhou raised his hand and pointed forward. "This secret passage must have been there a long time ago. It's very spacious. It leads directly to the side door. We can leave without anyone noticing."
As he spoke, he walked forward and moved the inkstone on the table.
Squeak——
A bottomless black secret passage slowly appeared!
Chen Yanchuan turned around: "Together?"
"Please, my prince."
Ye Chutang raised his hand, signaling Shen Yanchuan to go ahead.
Shen Yanchuan walked forward. The black entrance was bottomless and seemed to exude a hint of coldness.
Yuncheng handed over a lantern to light the way ahead.
Chen Yanchuan stretched out his long legs and walked inside.
Ye Chutang followed closely behind.
This is a secret passage that is large enough for two people to walk side by side. The workmanship is not very fine, but it is sufficient.
"I never thought that there was such a secret hidden in the Han family's underground." Chen Yanchuan pondered, "Roughly speaking, when he first bought this mansion, he began to secretly prepare to build this secret passage."
