Chapter 114: Decentness dies due to curiosity

Nangong Fuji stared at the bell slightly nervously.

However, before the bell could respond, the door of the Treasure Pavilion was opened.

Nangong Fuji hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Wen Moyan, covering her mouth while holding her waist, and took her to hide in a dark corner.

Wen Moyan didn't struggle, but was slightly nervous.

After a while, Nangong Buer saw a man in black walking in, looking sneaky, rather like a thief.

But what is strange is that he did not search for the treasures on the ancient shelf, but came to a picture hanging on the wall.

The man in black took off the scroll, put it aside, and then reached out to push a brick on the wall.

After the brick was dented, the Bogu shelf on the other side moved slowly, revealing a secret passage behind it.

Nangong Fujier and Wen Moyan were both a little surprised. They didn't expect that there was a secret passage in the treasure pavilion. Where did that secret passage lead to?

Nangong Fujier released his grip on Wen Moyan and whispered: "Follow us and have a look."

Wen Moyan's eyes widened, and she hurriedly grabbed Nangong Fuji's arm and blocked her anxiously: "You can't enter. Based on my experience, villains die from talking too much, and decent people die from curiosity!"

"Your experience, your experience, where do you get so much experience? If you don't come with me, you can stay here by yourself!" After Nangong Fuji finished speaking, he approached the secret passage.

Wen Moyan was speechless for a while, but she couldn't really stay by herself. If someone came in later, she would have no ability to protect herself.

In desperation, Wen Moyan had no choice but to follow Nangong Fujian all the way into the secret passage.

Although it is said to be a dark passage, it is actually not dark inside. Every once in a while, there will be a dim oil lamp embedded in the wall for lighting.

It's just that this secret passage is really too long. Fortunately, there's only one way, so you don't have to worry about finding the direction.

After about a cup of tea, a wooden door appeared in front of the two of them.

Nangong Fujian made a "shush" gesture to Wen Moyan.

Wen Moyan nodded, covered her mouth, and the two of them approached the door and listened.

And from behind the door panel, as expected, there was a conversation.

"How is the thing I asked you to do?"

It's the voice of an old woman. Who is this?

Before Wen Moyan could think clearly, the man in black gave the answer.

The man in black responded: "In response to the Queen Mother's words, my subordinates have personally delivered the secret letter to General Wu, but..."

"But what?" the Queen Mother asked.

The man in black continued: "However, after General Wu received the letter, he seemed very repulsive and said that he would never do such a thing no matter what. He also asked the Queen Mother to take back her order."

The Queen Mother sneered: "A woman's benevolence doesn't matter. Xuancheng is a loyal boy. Don't push him too hard. It won't take long for him to understand the painstaking efforts of the Ai family."

"Yes! That subordinate will resign first."

The Queen Mother stopped him: "Wait a minute, let's put aside the military matters for now. The Ai family has heard a little bit about what happened in the past few days. That old seventh man is a man with no eyesight, and he dares to touch our Wu family."

My grandson, it’s time to teach him a lesson.”

The man in black responded hurriedly: "Please give me the Queen Mother's orders."

The Empress Dowager continued: "Last time, Lao Wu escorted the army to pay and lost 200,000 taels of supplies. He was kicked out of the Ministry of War and lost all the power in his hands. He was disgusted by His Majesty and still refuses to let him pay his respects. Now it is Lao Wu who

Jiu Lai escorts him, do you think if he breaks all the supplies, will His Majesty kill him?"

The man in black trembled and asked hurriedly: "What do you mean, the Queen Mother, to ask your subordinates to lead people to rob the official's money?"

The Queen Mother shook her head and said: "Of course you can't be strong, otherwise your identities will not be hidden."

"Please express it clearly, the Queen Mother." The man in black didn't know what to do.

The Queen Mother thought for a while and said: "Xuanye is a smart boy. He is escorting the silver coins with Lao Jiu this time. I believe he will have a way to do it. Go, catch up with him and tell him what the Ai family is thinking, and he will know how to do it.

If you do, you can help me secretly."

The man in black took the order and said, "Yes, I obey."

The Queen Mother sighed and sneered: "Ha! The Prince of Qin's Palace has caused the Wu family to lose so much money. It's time to give some compensation to the Wu family."

…

When the man in black came out, Nangong Fujier had already left the Treasure Pavilion with Wen Moyan.

The two of them were walking on a quiet path in the harem, preparing to leave.

Nangong Fujian pulled Wen Moyan, hid in a rockery, and said, "After half a cup of tea, there will be patrol guards passing by. We will wait for them to leave before going out."

Wen Moyan did not respond.

Nangong Fuji looked at her doubtfully and found that her face was full of worry.

Nangong Fujian thought for a while and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Wen Moyan came back to her senses and said with some worry: "I didn't expect that the Empress Dowager Wu would actually deal with His Highness King Xiang. I was wondering whether I should inform the King of Qin."

Nangong Fujiwei smiled slightly, crossed his arms across his chest, and looked at her with amusement: "Then... do you think you want it?"

Wen Moyan pursed her lips and said, "You can't just die without saving someone."

Nangong Fujier continued to ask: "Then are you going back to the Prince of Qin's Mansion to report the news? Aren't you afraid that Shuang Feichen will kill you?"

Wen Moyan frowned in distress: "I can't get myself involved either."

"That's troublesome. It's hard to have both ends of the world. You have to make a choice." Nangong Fuji's tone contained a bit of schadenfreude.

Wen Moyan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, and then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, "I can't go, but you can! Go and tell Shuang Feichen the news."

"Why should I help you?!"

Wen Moyan was choked. After thinking for a long time, she said: "Silver, Prince Qin's palace has a lot of silver. As long as you tell me, I believe Shuang Feichen will not treat you badly!"

Nangong Fuji responded coldly: "I won't go!"

Wen Moyan knew that the killer in front of him was not easy to deal with. Since he couldn't say it, there was no point in forcing him.

Wen Moyan thought for a moment and then said: "It doesn't matter, it's just a message. If you don't go, I'll find someone else and I'll bring the news to Prince Qin's palace."

Nangong Fuji pursed his lips tightly and thought for a long time before saying: "If I don't go, you can't go either. It's late at night, which is the best time to leave the capital. Either you follow me obediently, and I'll send you to think."

Where to go. Or, I will send you back to Prince Qin’s Mansion to spread the news and save people. You can only choose one of the two."

Wen Moyan looked at Nangong Fujier with wide eyes, and asked with some confusion: "Why? From here to leaving the city, you can pass by Prince Qin's Mansion, it's just a matter of words, why can't you let me know on the way?"

"Because I'm unhappy!" Nangong Fujian's indifference and determination gave Wen Moyan a headache.
