Die Fei saw the change in their expressions and said with a proud smile, "Xiang Cui, take it out."

"Yes, Empress." After looking around for a while, she pulled her hand back …

Five people. Ten eyes stared at the tree hole at the same time. Xiang Cui's hand gradually revealed itself. She held a piece of cloth in her hand. It was a golden brocade. It was obvious that this was no ordinary item.

She pulled out, and the hole was too small and stuck.

Die Fei said anxiously, "Use your strength! You haven't eaten!"

Xiang Cui turned her head and looked back. "Yes, Empress." She pulled with all her might, and the thing inside was pulled out. She tried so hard that she sat down on the ground and leaned back, and the brocade in her hand fell on top of the butterfly consort.

Die Fei picked it up with two fingers in disgust. Suddenly, she noticed a thumb-sized red ant crawling on her tender fingers …

Ahh!" "The butterfly concubine threw down the brocade and threw her arm.

"Empress, you also have ants on you." Xiang Cui said anxiously.

Ah …" "Ahh!" Butterfly lowered her head and saw two ants on her snow-white chest, even on her arms. She was frightened out of her wits as she screamed and ran out of the Sunset Pavilion.

"Esteemed Empress, wait for this servant …" She trotted out after him.

"Hahaha …" "Serves you right …" Han Liu and Xiaodie burst into laughter at the sight of Die Fei's bedraggled face.

Leng Qiyue looked at the brocade on the ground, deep in thought. Was this golden brocade? But the Emperor had given her almost all the best material, and there was no gold brocade in it. Also, how come the ants on this brocade are so big? He had never seen such a creature with a black body and a fiery red body.

When Xiao Die saw Leng Qiyue staring at the ant in a daze, she said, "Empress, that is just an ordinary big ant, feeding on flowers. Because the ant's stomach is transparent, when it eats red flowers it shows red, and there is no poison."

The little butterfly was an insect monster. She had lived for a long time, so naturally, she was more familiar with insects than she was. Hearing this, Leng Qiyue felt relieved and picked up the golden brocade. She shook off the ants and the rotten wood shavings, then spread them out with both hands.

Han Liu exclaimed and went forward to help unfold the golden brocade. It turned out to be a piece of clothing. Even though it had been pulled and occupied by ants, it wasn't damaged in the slightest.

"Empress, this piece of clothing seems to be the legendary Gold Thread Divine Robe. It was said that the founding emperor had obtained the divine object, which he had left to the successive emperors. But it's rumored that this divine object has gone missing, and even the empress dowager has not worn it. "

Leng Qiyue disdainfully said, "A divine object? If it really is a divine object, then it should be able to repel the insects and avoid evil. Look, it's been used as a nest by the ants, how could it possibly be a divine object! "

Xiao Die shook her head, "You can't put it that way either. Empress, look, these ants are actually ordinary ants, but they actually grew so big right now. Perhaps they absorbed the essence of this divine clothing."

Leng Qiyue tossed the Gold Strings Divine Robe to Xiao Die and said, "I'll give it to you if you say it's a Divine Robe. It would be the best if it could help you in your cultivation."

She touched the cloak but could not feel any spiritual qi. She flattened her mouth and said, "This thing can help people cultivate, but it has no fate with me. I simply can't feel its spiritual energy at all. The Empress should just take it and leave it to the fated." Then she went back.

Leng Qiyue rolled her eyes and stuffed the Gold Sun Divine Robe into her sleeve.

Han Liu broke off a branch and started digging in the hollow of the tree.

Leng Qiyue went over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Liu said, "Just now, this servant kicked a rock. That rock actually made a clanking sound when it fell into the hollow of the tree. I bet there's something inside the hole." Look, there are patterns on these rotten wood shavings. Presumably, this Gold Thread Divine Armor was placed inside a box. "

Leng Qiyue rolled up her sleeves and extended her hand to Xiao Die. "Hand it over."

Xiao Die was confused, "What?"

Leng Qiyue scolded, "Idiot, of course it's a dagger."

"Oh!" Xiao Die took out the dagger and handed it over to Leng Qiyue.

Leng Qiyue continued to dig with her dagger. This time, she extended it towards the ground and finally dug a large hole. She probed inside with her dagger, and sure enough, she heard the tinkling of metal.

She put down the dagger, reached into her hands, and fumbled for a square box. The surface of the box was dark and without rust, and it was clear that it was made of pure gold.

Xiao Die said in surprise, "Aiya, Niangniang, you dug out a piece of gold."

"This is not a piece of gold. It's a golden box."

Die retorted, "Isn't the golden box a piece of gold too?"

Han Liu was speechless.

She frowned and said, "It really is a piece of gold, but I'm sure it's hollow inside. Otherwise it wouldn't be so light, but there aren't any cracks, could it be that it was cast from water?"

Han Liu nodded. "It looks like it. Look, there are a lot of bumps on this side. I think they were made in a hurry because they weren't smooth enough."

"Mm …" Shall we cut it open and take a look? " Leng Qiyue suggested.

The three women were all curious about the baby. Xiao Die rolled up her sleeves, held the dagger and said, "Empress, let this servant do it."

Leng Qiyue took the dagger and said, "Forget it. If you were to cut it down, the things inside would probably be chopped into pieces. Let me do it."

Xiao Die gave a silly smile and handed the dagger over.

Leng Qiyue gestured with her dagger a few times and decided to lightly cut a gap in the golden block.

The texture of the gold was very soft, and the dagger was extremely sharp. The inside of the gold ingot was indeed hollow, and there was a layer of metal inside it. This layer of metal was extremely hard, and even a dagger would not be able to scratch it.

It took Leng Qiyue a long time to peel off the layer of gold, revealing the dark metal box inside. Fortunately, the thing inside was a box that could be opened. Otherwise, Leng Qiyue would have a headache.

The box was ice-cold to the touch. It was about the size of a palm, and it was pitch black in color. When he opened the lid of the box, he found that there was something wrapped in yellow silk. Leng Qiyue opened the yellow silk, revealing a red jade qilin inside.

Leng Qiyue was overjoyed. She picked up the Red Jade Qilin and examined it again and again. It was the former Empress' Tiger Tally. She had not taken it out of the palace.

Han Liu asked in surprise, "Empress, these are the Qilin symbols, right?"

Leng Qiyue nodded. "That's right."

Han Liu continued, "Didn't the former empress take him out of the palace? Why are they hiding here? "

"The former empress was a smart woman," Leng Qiyue said with a smile. "She knew that she could not take anything away from the palace, and even if she did, the empress dowager would definitely find it. I didn't expect her to be willing to give it to me. She must be tired of living at court. "

"Big sister, they are inside." Die Fei's voice came from not too far away. Had she found Rong Fei?
