Two days later, Long Shitian came back from the barracks.

As soon as he returned to the National Teacher's Mansion, he heard about Qin Wu's execution.

He immediately sent someone to call Long Qianche into the study, and looked at him with a livid face, "Qian Che, during the two days when this seat was not here, did you have someone kill Qin Wu?"

Long Qianche stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "Father, Qin Wuhe intended to assassinate the Holy Maiden and committed a capital crime, so he should be executed!"

"You!" Long Shitiansheng exclaimed angrily, "Qin Wu is the right-hand man of this seat. You killed him without the permission of this seat. Did you take my father in your eyes?"

Long Qianche raised his eyes and said sternly: "Father, Qin Wu, without your consent, murdered the saint on his own accord in an attempt to sabotage your plan. Of course this kind of person should be killed, otherwise there will be endless trouble!"

Hearing this, Long Shitian's anger subsided a little.

He said coldly: "Well, why did Qin Wu murder the saint?"

Long Qianche's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "Because when Qin Wu led people to assassinate the saint, Chu Xuanchen killed many brothers, so Qin Wu always wanted to avenge the brothers. This time he saw you and I were not at home, Then he has the intention to kill the saint, and will go to assassinate the saint."

Long Jitian narrowed his eyes suspiciously, "Really?"

Long Qianche quickly lowered his head, "This is what Qin Wu said when he was captured, and it should be true."

Long Shitian gave Long Qianche a meaningful look, and coldly flicked his sleeves, "Okay, I believe you for the time being, since Qin Wu has been subdued, I will not investigate this matter. But there is one thing, I feel It's kind of weird."

"What's the matter?" Long Qianche asked.

Long Killing Heaven said: "Do you feel a little strange about opening the underground palace this time?"

"What's wrong?" Long Qianche looked serious.

Long Shitian thoughtfully took two steps and said, "According to historical records, after opening the underground palace, we will be able to get treasure, but this time not only there is no treasure, but everyone is in danger. Now everyone suspects that the ancestors are deceiving the people. , Qian Che, what do you think?"

Long Qianche thought for a while and said, "One hundred years ago is too long ago, and no one can tell if it's true or not. Maybe the people's guess is right, there are no treasures in this underground palace. Could the covenant be used by the ancestors to appease everyone and maintain the stability of the country?"

Dragon Killing Heaven said: "Even if the ancestors' purpose was to maintain stability, they couldn't have deliberately set traps to harm their own people. In my opinion, these traps, poisonous insects and quicksand should be used to defend against thieves!"

"Defend against thieves? If there is no treasure in the underground palace, why do they need to set up so many traps?" Long Qianche wondered.

"This is what I suspect. I suspect that there is actually a treasure in this underground palace, but something went wrong when it was opened, so we will encounter a trap." Long Jitian said with narrowed eyes.

"Father, do you mean that there is something wrong with the procedure for unlocking the treasure?" Long Qianche said in disbelief.

Long Shitian nodded gloomily, "It is very possible that many places where treasures are hidden have real doors and fake doors, and there are all kinds of suspicious circles and institutions. The treasure was opened by the queen who guided the saint, and only the queen knows how to open it. The queen is very shrewd, and I suspect that she is hiding something from us, or doing something in it.”

"Queen? Father, did the queen deceive everyone? What is her intention?" Long Qianche said coldly.

Long Jitian said solemnly: "She is weak now, of course, she is afraid that after opening the treasures, she will not be able to keep these treasures."

Long Qianche was noncommittal.

The queen should be afraid that these treasures will be possessed by her father, so she played tricks in them.

At this time, Long Shitian had a look of righteousness on his face, "It seems that the queen really did something in order to take the treasure for herself. I didn't expect that she would ignore the people for her own selfishness, and this seat is going to enter the palace now. Ask her about it!"

Long Shitian behaved very righteously, but Long Qianche slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, his eyes were a little deep.

-

Soon, Long Shitian came to the palace in a sedan chair.

As soon as he arrived at the palace, he got off the sedan chair and walked towards Lingyue Palace angrily.

"See the national teacher." The servants in Lingyue Palace saw the national teacher coming in anger, and they were so frightened that they squatted down and saluted him.

Long Shitian ignored them at all, with a gloomy face, he walked straight into the hall.

At this time, Xue Feiye, who was reviewing the memorial in front of the imperial case, looked up and saw Long Shitian approaching her aggressively.

She immediately put down the brush and stood up coldly and arrogantly, "The national teacher came in a hurry, what's the matter?"

Long Jitian walked in front of Xue Feiye, and raised his mouth grimly, "Why is this seat here, doesn't the Queen know it well?"

Xue Feiye flicked his sleeves domineeringly: "I don't have the same mind with the national teacher, how can I know your intentions? If the national teacher has something to say, you might as well say it directly."

"Okay! The queen is really quick to talk!" Long Shitian said, rolling his eyes, and said, "This seat asks you, why do we encounter so many traps when we open the underground palace this time? Where is the treasure? Where is the treasure?"

Xue Feiye's heart skipped a beat, and it really was this.

But she was not afraid. She raised her eyebrows and said coldly: "How do you know? My responsibility is to open the underground palace. Since the underground palace has been opened, other things have nothing to do with me."

Long Shitian's face was blue, and he rolled his sleeves coldly, "Queen, you can deceive others, but not this seat. According to historical records, after opening the underground palace, there will be treasures, but you have opened a bunch of traps to come out. This seat suspects that you are here. When I opened it, I did my hands and feet, that's why it's like this."

Xue Feiye sneered, "What evidence do you have? I tell you that the method passed down by the ancestors is like this, and I just follow the instructions of the ancestors. As for why there are all traps in it, you should ask the ancestors of the Xue family!"

"You!" When Long Jitian heard this, he immediately became angry. He pointed at Xue Feiye and said sullenly, "If you don't tell me the truth, do you believe I killed the saint!"

Xue Feiye's eyes narrowed, but he still said firmly: "I don't know, it's useless for you to kill the saint!"

Seeing that Xue Feiye didn't eat this set, Long Shitian narrowed his eyes coldly, "Queen, our ancestors would never set up these traps for no reason. Especially in a treasure-hiding place like this, the ancestors would definitely set up suspicions in order to defend against thieves. , to design a false door such as a real door and a fake door. So I dare to conclude that there are treasures in this underground palace, but you have done tricks in it to open the fake door that the ancestors used to confuse thieves. You actually know how to open the real door. ,right?"

Xue Feiye sneered, "At that time, I and the Holy Maiden were in the underground palace. If I really did something, I would not be able to escape. And you also saw that the Holy Maiden was in critical condition at the time, and she almost died on the spot. If there is a real door, then I have already opened the real door and rescued the saint, how can I put her in danger?"
