Chapter 54: The Breathtaking Scene in the Secret Chamber



But Yu Jiuchen started to talk about something else: "The 'strange' you mentioned is the wall?

The doors of two rooms are very far apart.

Su Changzhao was successfully interrupted by him, because finding the holy child of Yujiang was the top priority at the moment.

"Did you notice that too?" she asked.

Yu Jiuchen nodded: "Yes, the other rooms are next to each other, only those two rooms have a large space between them."

Su Changzhao: "If I'm right, there's something wrong with that wall."

Yu Jiuchen: "Why do you think so?"

[Even if I tell you that I saw this on TV, you probably won’t understand what “TV” is.]

"I have been in charge of the Censorate for many years and have encountered countless cases, both large and small. I made this judgment based on experience. If Your Majesty does not believe me, I can demonstrate it to you."

Listening to Su Changzhao's high-sounding words, Yu Jiuchen felt unhappy, but still nodded and said, "Okay."

The two came to the wall. Su Changzhao first observed the wall and found no obvious traces. She then listened carefully.

When she heard slight noises coming from inside, she was finally sure of her guess.

[That's right, this wall is the mezzanine between the two rooms. There is no door, just to make people think it is an ordinary wall, but in fact there is a secret door. ]

[It is rumored that Xiyuelou was originally a shady shop. ]

[It turns out that the black-hearted store owner and clerk hid here and attacked the tenants in the middle of the night. ]

[The people who captured the Border Saint Child probably saw this point and hid him here.]

Su Changzhao followed the direction of the noise and hit a certain spot on the wall with his palm.

The next second, the stone slabs on the wall suddenly rotated to form an entrance.

Su Changzhao and Yu Jiuchen took a look and found that there was indeed a secret door.

Immediately afterwards, there was a flash of a knife, and several knife-wielding gangsters suddenly jumped out from outside the door.

"Who are you!" the other party shouted.

Just chop at Su Changzhao and Yu Jiuchen.

At the critical moment, Su Changzhao directly stood in front of Yu Jiuchen.

She used her smooth and graceful movements to take care of most of the criminals in a short while.

At the same time, Li Xing also appeared and joined the battle, and when he dealt with the last gangster.

Su Changzhao reminded him: "Leave him alive."

"yes."

"You protect His Majesty, I'll go in and take a look."

Li Xing was about to do as he was told, but Su Changzhao stepped into the door first, followed by Yu Jiuchen.

When Li Xing rushed over from a distance, the door was gone.

·

At the same time.

On the second floor, Shen Juezhou was listening to storytelling.

While listening to the book with fascination, he grabbed the peanuts on the plate and ate them with great pleasure.

He didn't realize that every time he grabbed a handful, another hand would reach into the dish and grab a handful.

The other person's hands were not as big as his, so he couldn't grab as much as he did each time.

You took a handful and I took a handful. There were only so many peanuts on the plate, and in a few bites, the plate was empty.

In his last grab, Shen Juezhou didn't find any in the plate, and then he became alert.

I lowered my head to look at the empty plate, wondering: I didn't seem to eat much, how come it's gone?

Just when I was about to ask the waiter to bring another portion, a small hand suddenly appeared from under the table!

What the hell!

His eyes widened and he covered his mouth.

When I saw the little hand reaching for the plate skillfully and searching inch by inch.

Release your hand that is covering your mouth.

The heart that was rising to my throat suddenly settled down.

I thought I saw a ghost, but it turned out to be a thief who stole food.

Shen Juezhou grabbed the little hand, and when the other party cried out in pain, he pulled the person out from under the table.

"Your Majesty... Young Master Ninth, Young Master Su, look what I caught?" He turned his head and looked at the other two sides.

Just now I realized that Yu Jiuchen and Su Changzhao had disappeared.

He immediately stood up and looked around, looking annoyed: "Where did these two people go?"

"Ouch! It hurts! Let...let go!" The child in my arms cried weakly.

He looked down and saw a handsome young man in bright clothes looking at him with red eyes.

The little hand was still trying to pry open the hand that was holding his.

"Little devil, where are you from? Who told you to steal my peanuts?"

“It hurts… it hurts…”

Shen Juezhou saw that the other party didn't say anything and just kept crying out in pain.

The key point is that his words and actions seem to be different from those of normal children.

Shen Juezhou couldn't help but ask tentatively: "What's your name?"

“It hurts… it hurts…”

Shen Juezhou was speechless: This kid can't say anything else except crying out in pain?

There was no one around looking for the child.

Shen Juezhou felt that he might be too harsh, so he softened his tone: "Be good, just tell me your name and where you live, and I will let you go." He coaxed.

The young man was silent for a while, then said: "Chengjin...Yu Chengjin..."

Shen Juezhou was stunned: "Yu? You said your last name is Yu?"

He couldn't help laughing.

I thought he was a fool, but turned out to be a liar!

"Yu" is the surname of the royal family of Yulong. Except for the current Majesty, no one has the surname Yu.

At that time, most of the royal family had been killed, and it was only because Yu Jiuchen was the only one left of royal blood that he was able to sit on the throne.

Ordinary people may not know this, but everyone in the government and the country knows that this is all Su Changzhao's doing.

So, how is it possible to meet a royal relative with the surname Yu on the street?

The other party is still so young, and his name happens to be exactly the same as Prince Jin, who is of royal clan blood.

If you think about it, if Prince Jin had survived, he would have been as old as the young man in front of him.

Thinking of this, Shen Juezhou looked at the other party in surprise.

He immediately pulled open the man's neck and saw the bright red mole.

He was so shocked that he was speechless.

Because it is rumored that Prince Jin is gifted, who could recite the Tao Te Ching at the age of three and compose poems at the age of five, has a red mole on the back of his neck that he has had since he was born!

"he……"

Shen Juezhou was surprised, perhaps because he had been pulling the other person's collar, which made the other person uncomfortable.

As Yu Chengjin continued to struggle, something fell off his body.

Shen Juezhou looked carefully and realized that it was the golden scroll given to Prince Jin by the late emperor.

During the time of the previous emperor, culture was valued more than military affairs. Although Prince Jin was the orphan of the previous emperor's eldest brother, he had been a talented writer since childhood, and the previous emperor had intended to pass the throne to him.

In order to express his appreciation and high hopes for Prince Jin, he ordered skilled craftsmen to make a scroll pendant made of pure gold specifically for Prince Jin.

It is said that this thing has the seal of the previous emperor, and the holder has a chance to avoid death.

This also fully reflects the late emperor's love and favor for Prince Jin.

So people in the world may not know King Jin, but everyone knows about this token of the "Golden Scroll"!

Suddenly.

Someone is coming.

Shen Juezhou stepped on the golden scroll immediately.

Yu Chengjin took advantage of his laxity, broke free and hid behind the person who came in.

Shen Juezhou didn't stand up either, just looked at the other person.

On the one hand, he was wondering who the other person was and what his relationship with King Jin was, and on the other hand, he didn't want to reveal that he had recognized King Jin's identity.

So he raised his chin and asked bluntly: "Are you the family of this stupid boy?"

Look the other person up and down when you speak.

The visitor was an unremarkable middle-aged man dressed in ordinary clothes. When he saw Shen Juezhou, he first looked at Shen Juezhou.

Maybe because Shen Juezhou was dressed in plain clothes, and because he had just arrived in Longdu, with an unfamiliar accent and face, people thought that he had come to Xiyue Tower to listen to stories because of his reputation, so they didn't think much about it.

He bowed and said, "My young master is not very well here." He nodded his head, "I accidentally got lost on the street before. I hope I didn't offend you."

"It's not a pleasant thing to say. He ate all my peanuts. What do you say we should do?" Shen Juezhou raised his hands, looking like a stingy businessman.

Seeing him like this, the middle-aged man immediately put aside all his doubts and said with a smile: "Then...I wonder if these are enough peanuts for you, young master?"

As he spoke, he took out a gold ingot and placed it on the table.

Shen Juezhou knew what was going on: Such a generous act, he ate a plate of peanuts and had to pay an ingot of gold?

On his face, he immediately pretended to be a greedy person who had never seen the world. He hurriedly grabbed the gold ingot and bit it with his teeth: "It's real gold! Enough, enough!" he said with a smile.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man immediately left without saying a word, taking Yu Chengjin with him.

In order to play the whole role, Shen Juezhou didn't even look at the other person after he left. He was only focused on admiring the "hard-earned" gold ingot in his hand.

Sure enough, when the middle-aged man took Yu Chengjin downstairs, he looked back at him and found that he was only paying attention to the gold in his hand and didn't even look at them. Only then did he take him away with confidence.

Just after they left, Shen Juezhou immediately put away his greedy look, bent down and took out the golden scroll from under his shoe, turned it over to see the seal on the back clearly, and immediately chose to follow them.

Prince Jin is still alive and appears in Longdu in a swagger. Although he is a fool, his identity is still there. Who knows if someone will use his identity to do something.

The person behind this must be plotting something.

He just chased out, but found that the middle-aged man and Yu Chengjin had disappeared on the street.

"Running so fast?"

He looked around but to no avail, so he had to go back to Xiyue Tower.

I guess Yu Jiuchen and Su Changzhao will come back to find me no matter what, and I won’t be able to find them if I run around everywhere.

But as soon as he returned to the second floor, he saw Li Xing sitting at his seat.

"Guard Li! Your Majesty... Have you seen the Ninth Master and the Su Master?"

"Follow me now!"

But Li Xing pulled him up to the third floor without saying a word.

On the way, Li Xing told him what had happened before.

When he heard that Yu Jiuchen and Su Changzhao were both trapped in a trap, he naturally didn't care about Su Changzhao's safety. The key was Yu Jiuchen.

"Your Majesty... Is Your Majesty safe now?"

Li Xing had already brought him to the wall with the mechanism. He shook his head when asked about Shen Juezhou's question.

Seeing this, Shen Juezhou became even more anxious.

"What do you mean by shaking your head? Do you not know, or has His Majesty already..."

Li Xing said expressionlessly: "Don't worry, Lord Shen. With Qiansui here, your Majesty will be safe. Now all you have to do is crack the mechanism."

Seeing him so calm, Shen Juezhou thought that Su Changzhao should be fine, and Yu Jiuchen still had value to Su Changzhao, so he should be fine too.

Only then did he feel relieved and began to study the white wall in front of him.

"You said..." He rubbed his chin: "There is a secret door in this wall?"

"Yes," Li Xing pointed with two fingers: "It's here."

Shen Juezhou looked at the place he pointed to, but he didn't know that on the other side of the wall -

Su Changzhao and Yu Jiuchen were seeing a breathtaking sight in the secret room inside the wall.
