Chapter 189 Obtaining an unknown pill
Chapter 189 Obtaining an unknown pill
Tian Xiaoxiao and Daju hid at the highest point of the imperial city and overlooked it.
Thinking of the tragic scene just now, Tian Xiaoxiao couldn't help but sigh.
[Qingchen, is power so attractive? ]
Daju: [For humans who have a limited life span, power is a good thing. At least it can make their descendants live comfortably. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [That makes sense. Since life is limited, we should pursue unlimited wealth and glory. However, we must rely on our own strength rather than conspiracy and trickery to obtain it! ]
Daju: [Conspiracy is the fastest and has the lowest cost. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It seems that I am not cruel enough. Otherwise, I would have become the richest man in the world in my previous life by relying on entertainment gossip.]
Daju: [Don’t even think about it. You’re not cruel enough even if you live your life again.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I have no grudges against anyone here, why would you be so cruel? ]
Daju: [That’s right. You just said those little guys were talking about the Imperial City. Is there anything wrong with that?]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [There are so many melons. If Nangong Rui wants to clean up the imperial city, it will be a road full of thorns! ]
Daju: [For example?]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [For example, the palace maids and eunuchs are a group of scattered people, and many of the palace maids with lofty ambitions dream of becoming a phoenix one day.]
Daju: [This matter is actually easy to solve. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [The problem can be solved if the emperor does not marry so many wives, but since ancient times, which emperor did not have five, six, seven, eight or even more women? ]
Daju: [You need to talk to Nangong Rui about this.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [This is not my business! ]
Daju: [In order to balance the forces of all parties, the emperor will definitely take daughters of noble families and new nobles into the harem. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [In fact, it’s because the emperor is not strong enough. A wise and powerful emperor doesn’t need women to balance the forces of all parties. If you don’t obey the emperor’s orders, then I will beat you. I will beat you to pieces. Who dares not to obey? ]
Daju: [During war, the people suffer! ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I don’t want to think about it anymore. It’s too much of a headache. I’ll leave it to Nangong Rui to solve it himself.]
Daju: [Now, the news in the Imperial City has spread. I have to go and see how crowded the city of Xijing is tonight.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Go ahead, I'll just get some fresh air here.]
Daju: [You should go back earlier, or your mother will be worried. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [I know! ]
The big orange disappeared into the night.
Tian Xiaoxiao stood at the highest point of the imperial city, listening to the voices of the little ones and feeling the wind.
[The prince is showing off his power. Is the situation in the imperial city going to change? ]
[Cui Cui of Shufang Palace still wants to climb onto the dragon bed, but it seems that there is no hope. ]
[The future Crown Princess has a good temper! Even when the Imperial City is in chaos, she can still calmly copy scriptures here.]
[The princess has treasures in her palace, but she doesn't know how to use them, and I don't have the ability to get them.]
[Under the plum tree in Zhao Fanchi's palace, there were several bodies of baby girls. Poor children, they were killed right after they were born.]
[Li Wang Mansion has been sealed off, but there are still many valuable calligraphy and paintings in the secret room. ]
[There is actually a secret passage in Nangong Xu's palace. ]
[There was a maid in Jinglan Palace who raised a child, Nangong Qi's biological daughter. She was ten years old, but looked like a six-year-old child. The maid did not have enough food to feed her.]
【Zhao Fanchi is pregnant.】
[There are several jars of fine wine in Wu Garden, I am dying of greed. ]
When Tian Xiaoxiao heard that there were treasures in Nangong Ke’s palace, she wanted to go and check it out.
But she didn't know which palace Nangong Ke belonged to.
[Do you want to go with me to Nangong Ke's palace? Let's think of a way to get the treasure. ]
This should be a conversation between two little guys.
Two pitch-black birds flew into the sky.
It turned out to be two crows.
Tian Xiaoxiao stared at the direction they left.
After thinking for a moment, he sped up and followed the direction they left. After an incense stick of time, he arrived in front of an extremely magnificent palace.
The plaque at the entrance of the palace reads "Jade Palace".
This should be Nangong Ke’s palace.
I disappeared into the Jade Palace. Apart from the breathing of a few children sleeping, everything was silent.
Tian Xiaoxiao was rummaging through the bracelet. She remembered that when she was in Yiyou Palace, she had seen a magical tool with a treasure-hunting function.
It took me a while to find it.
This is a magical tool that looks like a magnifying glass. Tian Xiaoxiao used it to search the place where she was now, but did not find any treasure.
But Nangong Ke's extravagance also shocked her.
The rockery in the pool seems to be made of strange stones.
These strange stones are sparkling.
Tian Xiaoxiao walked closer and saw that most of them were stalactites.
How much manpower and resources are needed to search for stalactites in deep mountain caves?
Besides, how many years did it take to form these stalactites of various shapes?
The floor was paved with gold bricks and polished to a shine.
There are many vases placed on the small flower windows of the corridor not far away, some of which are precious porcelain, and some are carved from whole pieces of jade.
The wood you see in the palace is agarwood.
Following the corridor, we arrived at a courtyard with exotic flowers and plants.
As soon as she entered the yard, Tian Xiaoxiao felt very comfortable.
It's midsummer now, but it doesn't feel stuffy at all here.
I experienced this kind of climate in Kunming in my previous life.
There is a house opposite the door of the yard.
Tian Xiaoxiao walked in and there was no one there.
Behind the armchair is a weapon rack, on which are placed famous swords that are said to have been destroyed. They were originally in Nangong Ke's palace.
Every painting on the wall is priceless.
Tian Xiaoxiao looked around with the magnifying glass, but found no rare treasures.
Isn't it here?
[Someone is coming! We must keep an eye on the treasure, otherwise if it is taken away, we won’t be able to increase our lifespan.]
[You're being long-winded. If you say a few more words, the secret won't be kept. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao followed the sound of the two crows and found the place where the treasure was hidden.
When I looked over with the magnifying glass, I saw an antique box on the bookshelf. Inside the box was a pink pill that was glowing softly.
Tian Xiaoxiao didn't dare to touch the box easily, because the magnifying glass suggested that there seemed to be a mechanism on the box, and it would explode if touched.
Never mind him, just take the box first.
[Oh my god, that box disappeared! ]
[I didn't notice anyone coming here, how could they disappear? ]
The two crows opened their eyes wide, but still didn't see the box.
They had no choice but to fly in and land on the shelves.
The box did disappear.
They had just seen with their own eyes that the box was still there quietly, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Is there someone else in this room?
Tian Xiaoxiao, who got the box, had already escaped. The two crows never understood until their death who had taken the magic pill that they had been coveting for so long.
Tian Xiaoxiao returned to the yard in front of Nangong Qi's bedroom.
Nangong Ke was no longer in the yard. He must have been locked up in a prison specifically for royal family members.
Zhao Fanchi was still kneeling on the ground, cursing.
Nangong Rui and Nangong Hui are still dispatching personnel. The imperial city is now under Nangong Rui's control and is as solid as a rock.
Nangong Qi's situation is not optimistic.
Tian Xiaoxiao continued watching for a while. It was already very late at night. She yawned continuously and began to miss her bed at home.
Since Nangong Rui couldn’t see her anyway, she simply went home.
Daju hasn't come back yet.
The air in Xijing seems to be tense. Tomorrow will be a new day, right?
