Chapter 187 A living map to thank the housekeeper
Qin Shuhuang was quite satisfied with the situation of Zaiyueju. Aunt Su took good care of it and did not change the layout of Zaiyueju at will because of her absence. Even the books she read were well preserved.

Seeing that Nanny Su who was following him was slightly relieved and didn't look anxious, Qin Shuhuang knew that even if Brother Can Wang was in the house, he was not in Zaiyue Residence.

She didn't spend any more time on Zaiyueju, but instead went to the front yard.

After leaving Zaiyue Residence, Xie Dian followed her and said tentatively: "What are you looking for, Your Highness? If so, Your Highness can leave the matter to the old slave. The old slave promises to help His Highness handle it properly. Your Highness Just rest and drink tea and wait."

Qin Shuhuang glanced at Xie Dian with some interest, "Seriously?"

"I keep my word. If I can't do it, Your Highness will punish me."

"What if I ask you to find the prince?"

Xie Dian felt a thump in his heart. He was really afraid of what might happen. Could it be that His Highness has discovered some clues?
He said with some embarrassment: "Your Highness, please don't joke with me. The prince has gone out to do business and hasn't come back yet. How can he be in the house?"

Qin Shuhuang laughed with unknown meaning.

Xie Dian felt even more weak.

Qin Shuhuang just said this just to test Xie Dian.

Originally, she was not sure that Xie Xuanye was in the palace, but from Xie Dian's expression and actions just now, she was [-]% sure that Xie Xuanye was still in the palace, and there might have been an accident!

Qin Shuhuang became more anxious, but she didn't show it on her face. Her expression turned cold and she didn't trust the people in Zhenbei Palace.

She directed Ruihe to search with her, and asked Ruimiao to call Shilan Shiyu and her guards who were staying in the eldest princess's mansion.

Qin Shuhuang took Ruihe to personally inspect Xie Xuanye's front yard study.

Qin Shuhuang looked carefully at both the inner and outer chambers and could see traces of use in recent days, but no one from Xie Xuanye could be seen.

At this time, Shilan Shiyu and Qin Shuhuang's personal guards rushed to Zhenbei Palace.

Qin Shuhuang ordered the captains of the personal guards, Lu Da and Song Yiqiu, to "lead people to guard the various parts of the palace. The servants are not allowed to walk around privately, let alone leave the palace. If they are discovered, they will be arrested immediately and wait for the order from the palace." , you go back to the eldest princess’ mansion.”

Lu Da and Song Yiqiu immediately clasped their fists.

Then the two people quickly dispatched their own manpower and rushed to various courtyards of the palace to temporarily guard them.

After instructing Lu Da and Song Yiqiu, Qin Shuhuang looked at Xie Dian again, "Steward Xie, please inform everyone in the palace and ask them not to move around for the time being. If they violate the order, they will be severely punished!"

Xie Dian hurriedly responded and quickly gave instructions.

His face was bitter, and the prince was in a coma. How could he be stronger than His Highness? As long as His Highness sent his personal guards in, the palace would be unable to move. Now even if he wanted to move the prince, he had no chance. His Highness's move was really cruel. !

Now he just hopes that the prince can wake up immediately and appear in front of His Highness, otherwise the palace will be turned upside down by His Highness today.

After the matter was ordered, the guards of the eldest princess's palace were guarding the gates of various courtyards. The entire Zhenbei Palace seemed to have been pressed on the pause button, and no servants were walking around outside.

Just as Xie Dian was about to go down and have someone secretly send a message to Xie Zhuo, Qin Shuhuang named him.

"Thank you, housekeeper, Nanny Su, you will accompany me."

Xie Dian immediately responded and walked to Qin Shuhuang's side.

She looked for the front yard, and then went to the two courtyards next to the front yard. Xie Dian's expression didn't change, so she didn't look carefully.

Only when he returned to the backyard and looked for the corner courtyard, Xie Dian's expression changed.

Qin Shuhuang understood that Xie Xuanye was probably near these small courtyards.

With Xie Dian's living map, Qin Shuhuang quickly located a courtyard in Zhenbei Palace.

This is a bamboo forest courtyard.

It is quiet and quiet, far away from Zaiyueju. It is located in the corner of the backyard garden, half blocked by the corner pavilion.As soon as Qin Shuhuang walked towards the bamboo forest courtyard, Xie Dian said: "Your Highness, the courtyard of Jiao Pavilion over there has been in disrepair for a long time. No one has lived there for many years. I'm afraid it has been destroyed by wild animals. You'd better not do that." Go over and stain your eyes and clothes."

Qin Shuhuang glanced at him, but instead of listening to the advice, he quickened his pace.

After passing through a small bamboo forest, we arrived at the gate of this courtyard. As Xie Dian said, this courtyard was in disrepair.

The front door of the small courtyard is very clean, and there is no dust on the door knocker. Although the cobblestone path under the feet is quaint, it is indeed an old courtyard, but it is well maintained.

Qin Shuhuang glanced around and then looked at the Xie Dian.

Xie Dian's face was filled with an embarrassed smile, "This dilapidated little courtyard may have been repaired by one of the servants in the house."

Qin Shuhuang didn't want to hear his forced explanation, so she reached out and patted the copper ring on the courtyard door.

After taking a few shots, footsteps could be heard inside.

After a while, someone actually opened the courtyard door from the inside. Before anyone could see anyone outside, the person who opened the door from inside said: "Uncle Dian, you are back!"

When he opened the courtyard door completely and saw Qin Shuhuang standing outside the courtyard door, Xie Zhuo almost subconsciously closed the door again.

Fortunately, he controlled his subconscious actions in time.

Looking at the noble and beautiful eldest princess in front of him, Xie Zhuo's eyes were full of disbelief.

It took him a moment to react and salute Qin Shuhuang.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, why are you here?" After saying that, he asked Xie Dian, who was standing behind Qin Shuhuang, with his eyes.

Qin Shuhuang watched the interaction between the two.

She stepped directly into the courtyard, and then walked towards the room in the courtyard.

This is just a small bamboo forest courtyard, not big, only one entrance.

It is divided into main house, east wing and west wing.

In the middle of the yard is a clump of old bamboo, surrounded by various bonsais. To the east side is a small kitchen and a well.

Although the yard is old, it is clean, tidy and well-equipped.

There was even a faint smell of soup coming out of the kitchen.

The taste of the decoction is very similar to the taste of the pills that Qin Shuhuang gave Xuan Cang mixed with the food!

Upon discovering this, Qin Shuhuang became even more anxious.

Walk straight towards the main house.

Ruihe Ruimiao quickly followed, but Xie Zhuo walked quickly to Xie Dian and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Dian, why did you bring His Highness! After a while, His Highness saw the prince and discovered his secret, what should we do? explain!"

Xie Dian glared at Xie Zhuo with a headache, "I am old, but not confused. How could I bring Your Highness here! His Highness came here himself, how could I stop him! If Your Highness asks you later, don't say anything. I’ll play it by ear.”

Monk Xie Zhuo was still confused and could only agree.

The courtyard is just that big, and the east and west wings are where Xie Zhuo, Xie Cheng and Xie Dian live temporarily.

Xie Xuanye was naturally arranged in a wing of the main house.

Qin Shuhuang entered the main house, turned right and walked through the lobby, which was the wing of the main house.

Entering this wing, the familiar smell of soup became stronger. Qin Shuhuang's eyes fell on the lowered bed curtain. He walked a few steps quickly and opened the bed curtain. The next second, he saw a man lying on the bed wearing a mask. Xie Xuanye!
