Chapter 1262 Find the secret passage
When Rong Jiu said this, Lord Yun also found it strange: "In this way, the Xiao family's dismissal of servants and secret guards seems to be preserving their strength."

Rong Jiu brushed the dust off his body, his eyes darkened: "If you want to preserve your strength, why do you want to commit suicide?"

Prince Yun was also puzzled, and thought: "Although Prime Minister Xiao is dead, this king feels that the Xiao family seems to have a plan."

The cold wind lifted the corner of the cloak, Rong Jiu looked at a certain direction of the palace, the corners of his lips twitched, and he seemed to smile a little: "Does the lord think that this trick will be in Shoukang Palace?"

Lord Yun followed her gaze and sighed: "The Xiao family conspired against each other, and the Empress Dowager Xiao must be the mastermind. Unfortunately, there is no evidence, so we can't help her."

The smile on the corner of Rong Jiu's lips gradually deepened: "Once upon a time, the Queen Mother was honorable, but it was only before today."

Prince Yun's expression moved, his eyes lit up, and he inquired slightly: "What does the princess mean by this?"

Rong Jiu looked at him with a smile: "The Xiao family has a secret passage leading all the way to Shoukang Palace. As long as you find this secret passage, how can Empress Dowager Xiao stay out of it?"

Prince Yun laughed and asked the guards to search for secret passages.

Rong Jiudao: "The study is an important place. If the secret passage is not in the bedroom, it must be in the study. Let's go to the study."

Lord Yun nodded, and the two went to the study, but after searching around, they did not find any secret passages.

Prince Yun thought about it: "Could it be that the Xiao family doesn't have secret passages at all?"

"No, Chu Wei saw a secret door in Empress Dowager Xiao's bedroom, there must be a secret passage." Rong Jiu said firmly, thoughtfully, "Go get a candle."

In the clear sky, when Rong Jiu asked for a candle suddenly, the guard was stunned for a moment, but he still lit a candle and handed it to her: "Princess,"

Rong Jiu took it over and said, "Go and close the door, and stand still."

Lord Yun was also curious, and saw her holding a candle, standing in front of a wall, moving slowly, trying two walls, the candle in her hand suddenly flickered slightly.

Rong Jiu raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "There is wind, the secret passage is behind this wall."

"The princess is really amazing, she can think of such a way." Prince Yun admired, the secret passage is not sealed, there will naturally be wind, and when there is wind, it will blow the candlelight.

"My lord is so ridiculous." Rong Jiu blew out the candles, and said to the guard, "Everyone, hurry up and find the agency."

"Yes."

The imperial guards were ordered to search for suspicious things, but they searched the entire study room, but still couldn't find the mechanism, Rong Jiu stood in front of the wall, silent.

Lord Yun stood beside her, looking at the wall as well, and asked, "What is the princess thinking?"

"I'm thinking, if I were Prime Minister Xiao, where would I set up the agency?" After Rong Jiu finished speaking, he turned around, scanned the room, and finally set his eyes on the other wall, "The most conspicuous Will it be the most undefended place?"

There is a mural painted on that wall, which is a picture of a lady. The woman has a cloudy temples and beautiful face, her eyes are like stars, and the expression between her eyebrows is graceful, as if fresh.

Lord Yun's eyes flickered, and he saw Rong Jiu had already walked over, raising his hand to touch the mural.

The room was as quiet as death, and everyone was looking at Rong Jiu intently. Rong Jiu brushed by inch by inch, and finally touched those beautiful eyes. Her hand suddenly exerted force, only to hear a soft "click".

Everyone held their breath, Rong Jiu withdrew his hand and turned to look at the wall.

With a slight "click" sound, the wall slowly turned, and a gust of cold wind rushed in. Lord Yun looked at the secret passage in front of him, and said pleasantly, "How does the princess know that the mechanism is on the mural?"
