Chapter 1299： Sleepless night

Regarding her bold conjecture, Huangfu Yeting frowned.

"The underground palace is closed. There is no light all year round and there is no food. How can there be living people?"

Huangfu Liyue shook her head.

"I'm just guessing. The last time the queen left the ward late at night, and was dressed neatly, it looked like she had met someone secretly.

Last night, she secretly ran out again and went to the underground palace. The connection of these things made me have to guess that there might be a living person in the underground palace. "

Huangfu Ye Ting suddenly felt incredible when he heard these words.

What did the queen do, and who did she secretly meet?

Can there be people living in the underground palace?

These questions lingered in his mind and couldn't figure it out for a long time.

At this moment, Feng Su walked downstairs, keeping his eyes fixed on the two Huangfu Liyue who were talking.

She understood the conversation between the two of them just now.

However, after going downstairs, she walked over without incident, smiling very lovingly: "Liyue, this is Ye Ting, right?"

Huangfu Liyue told Huangfu Ye Ting earlier that Feng Xu is now in the Chang'an Hall, serving as a private teacher for several children.

Therefore, Huangfu Ye Ting recognized her at a glance after listening to her tone.

"Are you, aunt?"

Seeing the wind coming, Huangfu Liyue stood up and introduced: "Ye Ting, you guessed it, this is our aunt."

Huangfu Ye Ting then got up and immediately invited Feng Su to sit down.

"Auntie, sit down."

Feng Su sat down, looked up at Huangfu Ye Ting, smiled and said, "Ye Ting, you really look like your mother."

Huangfu Yeting smiled gently.

"Father always said the same, but it's a pity that I have never seen my mother."

Feng Su sighed regretfully.

"If it weren't the queen, your mother wouldn't... hey."

As soon as she said this, Huangfu Liyue and Huangfu Ye Ting both had unpleasant faces.

"Auntie, don't worry, we will avenge our mother, but it's not the time yet."

Feng Su looked at Huangfu Liyue: "Liyue, my aunt believes you and will definitely make the queen pay the price she deserves. By the way, just now, your aunt went downstairs, listening to you two seem to be discussing about the queen?"

Huangfu Liyue nodded without evasiveness.

"Yes, aunt, we suspect that the queen went to see someone in the underground palace."

With that, she sat next to Feng Su and continued: "By the way, aunt, when my mother was still there, didn't you stay in the palace for a while?

Then you should know something about the queen, right? Apart from Father Wang and Huangfu Yuncheng, does she have other close friends? "

She wanted to know who the queen was most likely to meet in the underground palace.

Regarding her question, Feng Su smiled and shook his head: "I really don't know about this."

Huangfu Liyue was a little disappointed.

"It seems that I can only wait for the three days of restraint to pass. After the queen has solved the gu for Princess Lingxi, I will find another way."

Feng Su didn't speak any more, took the tea from the maid and slowly brought it to her lips.

…

Night fell.

The gate of the underground palace.

The king used to go to the Drunken Sun Garden as an excuse to not allow anyone to follow, and came here alone.

The words Huangfu Liyue asked him last night remained in his mind.

He knew very well that Nuo Xi and Mu Jingchen were definitely not people who would make jokes indiscriminately.

The queen left the Royal Hospital inexplicably, and Nuoxi once again insisted that she was in the underground palace.

Maybe, there is really something wrong with it.

Queen, do you really know the secret of this underground palace?

The king's pupils shrank, and a dangerous look appeared in his eyes.

But then, he dispelled this idea in his mind.

The secrets and institutions of this underground palace, the former king had only told him one person, and he had never mentioned it before the queen.

In order to answer the doubts in his heart, he looked up at the large "underground palace" above the Shimen, raised his hand and touched the mechanism.

Afterwards, the Shimen "rumbling" sounded, and separated to the sides, appearing to the feldspar steps of the underground palace.

The king walked in without hesitation.

As he entered, Shimen closed automatically.

He followed the long stone steps, all the way to the bottom of the underground palace.

In the underground palace, he stopped before the ancestor's coffin.

First, he bowed three times to the coffin of the ancestor, and then his hand touched the carved pattern on the front of the coffin and pressed it lightly.

Rumbling _

The coffin in front of me moved forward automatically.

And under this coffin, it was actually a dark secret road.

The king stepped aside, took a long beacon, held the lamp, and went down the secret path.

This secret passage leads to the underground, and there is almost no light.

The king could only see the path under his feet with the eternal light in his hand.

Beneath this secret road is a huge hole.

And this cave is full of gunpowder.

This seems to be a royal tomb, but in fact, it is the place where Y country secretly reserves resources, and it is also the place where the past kings have built the country.

Therefore, it was set as a forbidden place by the first king of country Y.

This is the secret to the successive kings.

Holding the eternal lamp, the king walked into the depths of the cave step by step.

In this huge cave, there is nothing special except for the piles of munitions.

Going all the way to the innermost, there is nothing strange.

Thinking of Huangfu Liyue's question yesterday, he stopped.

There is indeed a secret road here, but there is no other way out.

Last night Huangfu Liyue chased the queen to the underground palace, and there were guards at the gate of the underground palace.

Until he hurried over and left the underground palace again, the guards guarding the door did not see the queen coming out of the underground palace.

At that time, the queen had already appeared in the hospital.

Thinking of this, the king settled down.

If the queen really came to the underground palace, she would not have a chance to go out.

It seems that he is too worried.

Then, holding the eternal lamp, he stepped out of the cave and walked up the secret road.

He did not notice that in this gloomy cave, the sound of dripping water was heard from time to time in the cave wall.

But in this whole cave, there is no water source.

…

When he left the underground palace, the sky was already dark.

He looked at the dark sky, feeling inexplicably low.

Every time he came here, his mood was extremely depressed.

Whenever his emotions were depressed, he would always miss Qifeng Suying inexplicably.

The only woman who makes him relaxed and makes him miss.

He stood at the gate of the underground palace for a few seconds, and sighed deeply.

"It seems that tonight is a sleepless night again."

Too much has happened in the palace recently.

As a king, no matter how much pressure he has, he can only carry it silently, and there is no one to talk to.

Sometimes, he also feels very tired.

He walked on this long road on foot, and from a distance, his figure was slightly rickety.

He didn't know how long he walked, he unknowingly walked to the Chang'an Hall.

Looking at the lights of Chang'an Hall from a distance, he stopped.
