Chapter 191: Mechanisms and Hidden Mysteries (Second Shift) (1 / 2)
by Jessie@AFNCC“If this bracelet is second aunt’s, why is it in fourth aunt’s hands” Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, puzzled.
“I don’t know.” Qi Xue’er shook her head back.
Mu Zi Yan stared carefully at the bracelet and raised her eyes at the furnishings in front of her, “Keep looking, there should still be something to be found.”
“En.” Qi Xue’er did not expect this bracelet to be her second aunt, and only felt that there must be a secret hidden here that she did not know.
The two of them then carefully observe and look for, when it is really shelved for too long, the head of the house is covered with dust, not long after, Qi Xue’er can not help but cough.
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at her, “What’s wrong”
“It’s fine.” Qi Xue’er shook her head, “It’s just a little hard to choke.”
“Why don’t you go out and get some air,” Mu Zi Yan thought that she couldn’t always stay here, and Qi Xue’er had just taken the antidote, and her body hadn’t completely recovered.
Qi Xue’er shook her head and raised her eyes to look at her, “Eldest cousin, just let me accompany you.”
“When did you learn to be petulant with me” Mu Zi Yan couldn’t help but laugh when he saw her like this.
“First cousin, I’m really curious.” Qi Xue’er whispered.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan knew that Qi Xue’er was trying to find out who was behind this as quickly as possible.
She was silent for a moment, then spoke, “Then hold on a little longer, and if it is not possible, you will go out and come in again.”
“Good.” Qi Xue’er hurriedly replied, so she didn’t delay and searched carefully.
Mu Zi Yan is just observing the layout, if there is a secret passage here, or to leave something behind, it will definitely start from the layout, it will always be unexpected, or it will be extremely ordinary and too superficial place.
Korean entertainment you shoot one and I’ll shoot the other.
Mu Zi Yan slowly closed her eyes, going over the layout in front of her in her head, and snapped her eyes open, as if she had realized something.
She turned around and looked at the long case in front of her, on top of which was placed a white jade vase embedded with red plums, she remembered that Auntie Qiu’s place seemed to have one as well, she suspiciously went up, so she picked up the vase, and after carefully looking at it, she then put it down again, but she looked down and saw that the base of the vase seemed to be different.
Her eyes flashed with an ethereal light, then she put that base down and turned it along the grain, only to hear the verdant stone floor under the long case under her feet suddenly move away.
Qi Xue’er heard the ringing and hurriedly came over, raising her eyes to look at her, “Eldest cousin, this is”
“Go in and take a look.” Mu Zi Yan looked at Qi Xue’er, “I’ll go down, you guard outside.”
“Good.” Qi Xue’er didn’t fight for it this time and nodded her head in a hurry.
Mu Zi Yan down after the secret passage, along the secret passage forward, straight until the exit, she then opened the side of the mechanism, and so on up, this is exactly Auntie Autumn house.
Her eyes flashed with a doubtful cold light, so she resumed walking forward along the secret passage, and when she returned inside the second madam’s house, she raised her eyes and looked at Qi Xue’er, “Keep looking, there should still be side discoveries.”
“Good.” Qi Xue’er nodded her head in response, then asked, “Eldest cousin, what did you find in the secret passage”
“At the end of the secret passage is Auntie Qiu’s house.” Mu Zi Yan said faintly.
“Auntie Qiu” Qi Xue’er was getting more and more confused now, “What the hell is going on”
Mu Zi Yan shook her head and said, “Nowadays I can’t say, so I’ll look for it again.”
“Good.” Qi Xue’er nodded her head in response, and then she and Mu Zi Yan searched carefully.
The sky is getting dark, Mu Ziyan lit up the candle on the side, and then put down the lampshade, the house will be bright, she raised her eyes and looked at it for a long time, but she did not find any more clues.
Qi Xue’er looked at her, “First cousin, still no other findings.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded slightly, “You and go back, I’ll stay here for a while.”
“No way, I don’t feel comfortable with you staying here alone.” Qi Xue’er shook her head.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be fine.” Mu Zi Yan said with a smile.
Qi Xue’er was also a bit unable to bear it, only feeling stuffy, so she stopped insisting and turned around to leave the house.
When she went out, she saw Qi Xuan guarding the outside, she smiled lightly and said, “Brother, why don’t you go in and accompany first cousin, I’ll get some air.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan answered in a warm voice and entered the house.
Mu Zi Yan was contemplating with her eyes downcast when she heard footsteps and raised her eyes to see Qi Xuan walk in, she smiled lightly and said, “Cousin.”
“Can you find anything,” Qi Xuan asked, looking at her.
“Found a secret passage.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said, “This secret passage leads to Auntie Qiu’s house, as well as this bracelet, which belonged to Second Auntie, but was in Fourth Auntie’s hands, and is now in First Cousin’s hands.”
“What’s wrong with this bracelet” Qi Xuan asked in disbelief.
“For the time being, I don’t know.” Mu Zi Yan shook her head.
“I remember that Duke Chu seemed to have told you about the Yin family’s past.” Qi Xuan said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head and responded, “But this matter is a long story, nowadays I will first look for the
Take advantage of the permission.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan then didn’t ask any more questions, but continued searching with her.
But it is an elegantly furnished house, but Mu Zi Yan feels that the layout seems to contain a great mystery, she looked down at the floor of the lapis lazuli floor, turned her eyes and dropped her gaze on the place where the secret passage was opened, and then reopened the secret passage, and then extinguished the candlelight, and then she saw that the moonlight from outside the house filtered in, reflecting on the exit of the secret passage, but it was refracted with countless beams of light, and she lifted her eyes to look at the beams of the house, and carefully thought about the silver light sprinkled on the ground, and then walked step by step in accordance with the silver light. She raised her eyes to look at the beams of the room, and carefully thought about it, and then lowered her eyes to look at the silver light spilling down from the ground, her eyes narrowed slightly, and then she walked step by step in accordance with the point where the silver light was spilling down.
Qi Xuan stood still and just stood watching.
By the time Mu Zi Yan had tried back and forth a few times, she had yet to find the various subtleties.
Qi Xuan looked up at her, “Let me try.”
“Good.” Mu Zi Yan then stood aside as Qi Xuan began to walk.
After a while, a sound of the ground shaking could be heard, and the area Qi Xuan was stepping on suddenly cracked, and a wall in front of him moved away.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, “This second aunt is really not simple.”
“It’s surprisingly painful to have to use the Bagua Formation to lay a trap.” Qi Xuan also did not expect the second aunt to be so capable.
“Things are getting more and more interesting.” Mu Zi Yan said with a light smile.
With that, the two of them entered a dark room with a wall moving open on one side, which was filled with all rows and rows of bookshelves containing many books in a wide array.
Qi Xuan walked up, but he didn’t dare to move, he just raised his eyes and looked at Mu Zi Yan, “Cousin, don’t you think Auntie Two is too strange”
“Yes.” Mu Zi Yan nodded her head, “Second Auntie is surprisingly so capable of laying down the Eight Trigrams Formation and having such a dark room here, how did she die in the first place”
“I want to know too.” Qi Xuan continued.
“It seems that we are involved in an extremely deep whirlpool.” Mu Zi Yan felt that the black hand behind the scenes hidden within the State Duke’s Mansion was too powerful and was very uncomplicated.
“What exactly happened back then” Qi Xuan, however, felt that back then was afraid that it was not that simple.
“This matter with the cool king can not get out of it, more even with the emperor is also involved in it, I am afraid that even the north of the green country that also” Mu Zi Yan deeper and deeper thought, will feel that things are more and more complicated.
“Then the person behind this is hiding too deeply.” Qi Xuan looked at Mu Zi Yan, “If you hadn’t dug up Auntie Qiu last time, I’m afraid that no one would be thinking about that year’s events today.”
“But now we have to catch this person, otherwise, what will be brought to the State Duke’s Mansion is doom and gloom, moreover, Grandma can’t afford to wait.” Mu Zi Yan said in a cold voice.
“Good.” Qi Xuan nodded solemnly, knowing how dire the situation was today.
Mu Zi Yan took a deep breath, turned her eyes to look around, and then said, “Cousin, I believe that the secret is inside this dark room, so we have to be more careful and never touch the organs inside.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan answered in a low voice, and the two of them just looked around, not daring to move.
I don’t know how long it took, Qi Xue’er slowed down, and when she entered, she saw the dark room there, and was about to open her mouth, but she was stopped by Mu Zi Yan, “Cousin, don’t come over, lest you touch the mechanism.”
“Oh.” Qi Xue’er hurriedly stopped her steps and just stood outside the inner room watching, not daring to move around.
Mu Zi Yan and Qi Xuan two people checked for a long time, and did not have any discovery, this person looked at each other, seems to think of something.
“It’s hard not to be related to this bookshelf” Qi Xuan looked at Mu Zi Yan and asked in a warm voice Fast Wear’s Blackened Female Mate.
“Perhaps.” Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes to look at the arrangement of the bookshelves in front of her, and then pondered for a moment, “Cousin can see the end”
“No.” Qi Xuan shook his head.
Mu Zi Yan raised her eyes and looked at these bookshelves, right in front there was a painting, and it was an extremely abstract painting, Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly, she only felt that this painting was hiding some kind of deep meaning.
She took a step back and began to survey the painting.
Qi Xuan, on the other hand, continued to check other suspicious places, so until the third night, did not find out anything.
Qi Xue’er looked at the two of them and seemed to have thought of something, “Eldest cousin, you haven’t eaten anything for a day, why don’t you”
“No harm done.” Mu Zi Yan waved her hand.
Qi Xue’er didn’t dare to say anything more and quickly stopped talking, just probing and watching.
Straight wait until dawn, Mu Zi Yan but staring at the painting looked more and more fascinated, until the first ray of sunlight in the morning irradiation into the inside, directly hit the painting, Mu Zi Yan eyes flashed through the surprise, and then said, “I know.”
“Know what,” Qi Xuan asked as he stepped forward and looked at her.
“This painting,” Mu Zi Yan said, pointing to the painting, “the lines inside this painting.”
“Let me take a look.” Qi Xuan said and went forward as well, and after looking at it, he and Mu Zi Yan looked at each other and smiled, “So that’s how it is.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded, and then with Qi Xuan two people work together will be in front of the bookshelf according to the painting inside, the sunlight irradiation out of the position of rearranging, followed by the painting in front of the eyes of this painting suddenly slipped, and then appeared again a door.
Qi Xue’er’s eyes widened, incredulously looking at, here head actually
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly as she continued, “It seems that the secret is here.”
“It’s better to be careful.” Qi Xuan said as he looked at Mu Zi Yan.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded, and the two of them slowly walked forward.
After the two of them entered this dark door, the things placed inside were covered in thick dust, but she was sighing in admiration that the second madam who laid out this layer of dark passages, the Yin family’s young lady, had such a profound skill in the art of mechanism.
She suddenly thought of the lineage that was good at arranging mechanisms, and immediately after that, the two of them turned over the contents one by one, and after looking at them, the two of them were quite emotional.
“It seems that Second Auntie had taken a lot of pains back then, it’s just a pity that,” Mu Zi Yan sighed, “the red face has a thin life.”
“Yeah.” Qi Xuan followed the feeling.
Mu Zi Yan turned her eyes to look at him, “Cousin, it’s better to leave the contents here for now.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan nodded and responded, “But what should you say when you go out”
“This matter can’t be made known to too many people, so as not to frighten the snakes, not to mention that these things are related to the safety of the State Duke’s House, and can’t be leaked out.” Mu Zi Yan looked at him and said.
“I know.” Qi Xuan nodded and responded, “Let’s go out first.”
“Good.” After Mu Zi Yan put down all the things, the two of them went out of the secret passage, and then returned the bookshelf to its original position, and then went out of the dark room, and immediately after the dark room closed up, the two of them went out of the inner room.
Qi Xue’er hadn’t come back to her senses at the moment, and when she saw Mu Zi Yan, “Eldest cousin, it’s too weird here.”
“Cousin, this matter is only known to me, you, and cousin three, and shall not be spoken of with a fourth person Mighty Concubine Married and Angered the Highly Cold Crippled King.” Mu Zi Yan looked at her and said.
“I’ll save it.” Qi Xue’er knew that a shocking secret was feared to be hidden here, so she solemnly nodded her head in response.
The three of them went out of the courtyard, and when they returned to the front hall, they saw Mrs. Guo Gong waiting for them, “Can you find out anything?”
“Just finding a secret passage.” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at the State Duchess.
“Secret passage,” the Duchess of State looked at her in disbelief, “What secret passage?”
“It’s the secret passage that leads from Second Auntie’s house to the inside of Auntie Qiu’s house.” Mu Zi Yan looked at her and said.
“Ah,” Mrs. Guo Gong obviously didn’t expect this secret passage, “What’s going on here?”
“Great aunt, this matter may require fourth aunt to come.” Mu Zi Yan then proceeded to hand her the bracelet, “This bracelet was given to the first cousin by fourth aunt, but it is also the organ that opens the secret passage in Auntie Qiu’s house that leads to second aunt’s place.”
“What,” the State Duchess looked at her, “is it hard to”
“Moreover, this bracelet is Second Auntie’s.” Mu Zi Yan continued.
Upon hearing this, the Duchess of State froze in place, clearly incredulous, and only after a while did she come back to her senses, and then said, “Go and invite the Fourth Mistress to come.”
“Yes.” The Sister at the side answered and then retreated.
The Duchess of State looked at her, “Anything else?”
“Not for now.” Mu Zi Yan shook her head.
“Yes, Mother, it’s been a day and a night of searching.” Qi Xue’er whispered from the side.
“Your body is not yet fully healed, and you stayed up all night, go rest first, do not hurt your body.” Mrs. Guo Gong said heartily.
“Mother, let’s wait first, after fourth aunt comes.” Qi Xue’er said with a smile.
“That’s good.” The State Duchess nodded in response.
Not long after, they saw the Fourth Mistress come and say in a low voice with downcast eyes, “Sister-in-law.”
“Fourth younger sibling, this bracelet is yours,” Mrs. Guo Gong did not beat around the bush, but asked directly.
“Not mine.” The Fourth Mistress raised her eyes to look at it, “It was given to me by Second Sister-in-law when my sister first entered the house, so I have kept it, and when I saw that Xue’er liked it some time ago, I gave it to her.”
The State Duchess nodded slightly, “Is it really the second younger sibling who gave it to you.”
“Exactly.” The Fourth Mistress answered with downcast eyes.
Mu Zi Yan’s eyes flashed with a flash of ghostly light and did not open her mouth, waiting straight until after the fourth madam left, she raised her eyes and looked at the State Duchess, “Great Aunt, it seems that this is what Second Aunt intends to leave behind.”
“En.” Mrs. Guo Gong nodded her head and responded, “What did you find inside this secret passage?”
“Not really.” Mu Zi Yan shook her head, “It seems like the clues are broken again.”
“Ai.” Mrs. Guo Gongfu sighed and raised her eyes to look at the Mu Zi Yan trio, “Smoke girl, you’re also tired, go rest first.”
“Yes.” Mu Zi Yan answered in a low voice, turned around and left the hall.
Qi Xuan and Qi Xue’er left with them, and when they were out of the front hall, the three of them gathered together again and went to Qi Xuan’s courtyard.
“Cousin, don’t you think that Fourth Auntie is too calm,” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at him, “It seems that she knew early on that Great Auntie would ask her about this matter, and instead, she wasn’t the least bit surprised.”
“Yes, I also find it strange to bite the male lead and not relax.” Qi Xuan nodded his head and responded, “It seems that fourth aunt must be hiding something”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan faintly responded, “Send someone to keep an eye on fourth aunt, this matter may be related to fourth aunt.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan nodded in response.
“First cousin, I really can’t figure it out.” Qi Xue’er looked at her and said, “Just who on earth would want to assassinate the State Duke’s House like this”
“The cause here is too complicated.” She looked at Qi Xue’er, “Cousin just need to remember that you have to be cautious in everything you do, once you make a wrong move, it’s all doom and gloom.”
“Yes.” Qi Xue’er said with a straight face, “Don’t worry big cousin, I will definitely not leak it out.”
“En.” Mu Zi Yan held her hand, “You should go and rest properly.”
“Good.” Qi Xue’er responded with a smile, slowly got up and left.
Qi Xuan looked at her and said, “Cousin should also go rest.”
“Cousin, I’ve always felt that this is just the beginning.” Mu Zi Yan said as she looked at him.
“Is it hard to believe that giving grandmother a compulsion is nothing more than someone wanting to use you and I to dig out the hidden secrets of the State Duke’s residence” Qi Xuan asked as he looked at her.
“En.” Mu Zi Yan nodded and responded, “Not without possibility.”
“If that is the case, then things will be troublesome.” Qi Xuan continued, “Now that you and I don’t have much time left, if we can’t find this hidden person, grandmother’s life will be in danger.”
“Ai.” Mu Zi Yan sighed quietly, “The efforts made by the Yin family back then, hopefully they won’t be in vain.”
“It is a pity that ah, after all, was still secretly harmed, if the second aunt was able to reveal half of the words, perhaps not to this point.” Qi Xuan whispered.
“If Second Auntie really reveals it, can the State Duke’s Office avoid it” Mu Zi Yan whispered, “Even if Second Uncle treats her like that, she still used herself to preserve the State Duke’s Office.”
“Cousin, should we tell Second Uncle about this matter,” Qi Xuan asked in a low voice.
“Nowadays since I can’t say.” Mu Zi Yan sighed, “Let’s wait until things are all cleared up, the Yin family is involved here after all.”
“Good.” Qi Xuan nodded in response.
Mu Zi Yan then did not say any more, but left Qi Xuan’s courtyard, and then went to visit the State Duke’s old lady, and then went to rest.
Yunxiang and Bi Yun looked at each other, and were self-conscious about Mu Zi Yan.
She had just rested, when she heard a rush from outside, Yunxiang rushed out, and saw a maid rush over, crying, “Miss Cousin can be in.”
“This is what happened” Yunxiang see that the girl is the table Miss with the girl, think it is the table Miss that happened there, then asked in a low voice.
“My lady has disappeared.” The maid said in a hurry.
