158 - Sneak into Changtian Palace

Ningze Palace

"You continue. I have something to talk to King Chonglou about." Prince Yin.

Except for Jiang Xingyu, Feng Yuqie and Chen Ziyue, no one knew their purpose.

Actually visiting Changtian Palace during the day was not the right choice, but only during the day the fake Emperor did not feel in his Palace.

Fortunately after a few nights of sneaking into the Palace, the two of them knew how to avoid the secret guards. Before they leave, they have to change clothes.

This was also the reason why they had come to Ningze Palace, because they had previously hidden their black clothes somewhere in Ningze Palace.

After changing clothes, the two of them disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Evading the secret guards at some point after another, the two managed to sneak into Changtian Palace. Before starting the next step, the two of them closed their eyes to feel the breaths of the secret guards.

Then the two moved again, avoiding the place where the secret guards were guarding and successfully entered the fake Emperor's room through the side window.

The two of them walked towards the bed, as uncle Yu An said there was a secret under the bed.

Sure enough! When Prince Yin opened the bedsheet, there was indeed a strange rectangular line. At the head of the bed, there was a suspicious button. But they do not immediately press it, because they do not know whether the button will make a sound or not when pressed.

But since they had taken the trouble of sneaking here, of course they wouldn't miss it.

Soon they decide to suppress it, hoping to find a clue or something important.

Prince Yin took a deep breath, when the button was pressed, the rectangular lines emitted a creaking sound and fortunately the sound was very small.

Following the creaking sound, the line opened into two sides. A stepped hallway is visible, a hallway that is quite dark and estimated to be about two to three meters away.

There's a dim light at the end of the hall which means there's room down there.

Without much thought, Yuwen Junxiu took the initiative down the hall. Prince Yin was in charge of watching outside.

Yuwen Junxiu's movements were so light that it barely caused any sound. At the same time he felt a human breath that was not hidden, yet was as weak as the breath of a dying person.

After descending the stairs, there was a dark room in front of him, measuring about fifty square meters. Looking around, there was no furniture other than the bed. Most importantly there was someone lying on it.

Without a second thought, Yuwen Junxiu walked towards the bed. When he saw that person, he could not help his surprise.

The person lying on the bed was a man of about seventy years old, with a haggard face and a very thin body. Seeing this, the look in Yuwen Junxiu's eyes was extremely cold.

This old man was no one else, he was the original Emperor who was presumed to have died, Murong Huangli.

His hands and feet were chained, obviously to prevent him from escaping.

As for why the fake Emperor let the real Emperor live, Yuwen Junxiu did not want to think of the reason now.

He came closer and checked his pulse. Thank goodness! Although his veins were very weak, at least they did not endanger his life.

It's unfortunate that he can't get it out right now. Not long, he's back soon.

As soon as he saw his best friend return, the Prince asked without a sound. "How's it?"

Yuwen Junxiu did not immediately reply, but rather gestured to leave here immediately.

Then they both made the bed. Go the same way, leaving no trace.

Returning to Ningze Palace and after changing clothes, Prince Yin asked. "How's it?"

"The emperor is not dead. He's locked up in a dark room. His condition was very weak, but it did not endanger his life." Yuwen Junxiu's voice sounded heavy.

Hearing this, Prince Yin was shocked and at the same time excited. Then grabbing his best friend's shoulder while asking. "Then why don't you take him out?"

"If I take him out in that situation, we'll definitely be found. It is not time to paralyze the snake. We have to make a long-term plan. First we have to find out who the court officials are not on the side of the fake Emperor, then look for someone trustworthy to disguise." Yuwen Junxiu.

Making Prince Yin realize that his attitude was too hasty. "Yes. You're right." He said in a sigh of relief.

After that they entered the hall, when they did not see Princess Yanning and Chen Ziyue, they guessed that there must be something the two of them wanted to talk about in private.

Right next to the hall, Princess Yanning and Chen Ziyue sat across from each other.

"I'm sorry, brother Chen. I used you for my sake." Princess Yanning said with a guilty expression.

"No. I don't feel wronged." But I feel so guilty about you.

Of course Princess Yanning said the last sentence in her heart.

Then the two chatted for a while then returned to the hall.

When the break time was almost over, everyone returned to the Peony Palace.

Guests return to their seats. Likewise with Jiang Xingyu and his group who also returned to their respective seats.

After the break was fully over, the Empress arrived with the Concubines. But this time there was an additional person, the fake Emperor.

The Emperor directed his gaze towards the male guest while giving off his domineering aura, which was deliberately aimed at King Chonglou.

Of course Yuwen Junxiu did not care or respond.

Whereas when he saw the fake Emperor, the look in Prince Yin's eyes turned full of hatred. Just a moment so no one knows.

Then everyone got up to pay their respects.

"Our salute to His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress."

Except for Jiang Xingyu, Yuwen Junxiu and Prince Yin, everyone knelt down.

Everyone naturally knew the reason why King Chonglou and Prince Yin did not kneel, but why did Jiang Xingyu not kneel?

The privileges granted by the previous Emperor to the Nalan family were unknown to everyone. Even if they knew, who would remember him after all this time?

"Oh! Why didn't Miss Jiang kneel down while greeting the Emperor? could it be that you disrespect the Emperor?" Concubine Ruan said, it is indeed worthy of being dubbed as a Trouble-seeking concubine.

The happiest of his words was Consort Shu. Where he had the chance to mock her.

"Sister Concubine Ruan, before speaking, you should find out the real situation. The previous emperor had granted privileges to the Nalan family, of which neither the entire family nor their descendants, needed to kneel to the Imperial family. While Miss Jiang is a descendant of the Nalan family, so she doesn't need to kneel." Concubine Shu reminded, not forgetting to include her cynical voice.

And when he heard this, Consort Ruan's face instantly turned pale. Afraid that the Emperor would blame him, he hurriedly admitted his mistake. "Your Majesty, the concubine forgot about this and said the wrong words. Please forgive the concubine."

The Emperor frowned for a moment and then said. "No problem. Next time think before you speak."

"Yes. Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Ruan let out a sigh of relief.

"All guests please sit." The Emperor said to everyone.

"Thank you Your Majesty."

Then everyone got up and sat down.

The Emperor's presence was merely that of being a spectator. The Empress is the actual host in this celebration.

Next is the talent show.

The show is not limited to one category. They can also show talent in pairs. For example, men who play music and women who dance.

A girl takes the initiative to start and the show is an individual dance.

It was Jiang Linxin's turn. He plays a song about two lovers who travel together until the end of life. Her melodious voice as well as her skill in playing guqin, did not embarrass her who was known as one of the talented girls.

Bai Yinran also played and sang a song, telling the story of the sincerity of love that clapped one hand. Although the song means sad, it still attracts admiration from everyone. It is indeed worthy of being known as the most talented girl in the Capital.

Next was Lin Jiayin's turn. He displayed his talent in the form of individual sword dances. Although not awesome, at least not bad.

For painting talent, the female side is not as good as the male side.

Just soon! Next is Princess Yanning's turn.
