Chapter 306: Night Exploration of the Beiming Palace
Under the arrangement of the housekeeper, Su Qingcheng and the drunk Jiang Chen and Li Yuan were taken into a quiet courtyard.
After helping Su Qingcheng arrange things for Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi respectively, the housekeeper said goodbye and left.
After confirming that the housekeeper had left, Su Qingcheng gently patted Jiang Chen's hand.
"Sir, Sir, stop pretending. The butler has already left."
Following Su Qingcheng's gentle call, Jiang Chen actually sat up.
"Huh, I didn't expect the wine I brewed myself to be so strong."
It turned out that Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi were not drunk at all, they were just acting before!
As early as when Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi were half drunk, they used their internal energy to get rid of the alcohol in their bodies.
Compared to Bai Ze who was drunk as a pulp, Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi were only slightly tipsy.
After using his internal energy to eliminate the last bit of drunkenness, Jiang Chen found Li Yuanyi.
Su Qingcheng took out the night clothes that she had prepared long ago and helped Jiang Chen change his clothes.
Li Yuanyi quickly changed into his night clothes and returned to Jiang Chen.
When the time was almost up, Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi sneaked out of the Prime Minister's Mansion under the cover of darkness.
It turned out that today's visit to Bai Ze was also one of Jiang Chen's strategies.
The reason why he came to visit Bai Ze was that he wanted to sneak into the imperial city of Bei Ming!
Because Bai Ze, as the prime minister, has his mansion closest to the east gate of the imperial city!
It was really hard for the unlucky guy Bai Ze, not only did he lose several jars of fine wine.
Without knowing it, he became a tool used by Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen and Li Yuan flew all the way across the rooftops and soon arrived outside the imperial city.
Looking at the defenders on the top of the imperial city, the two men looked at each other.
Li Yuanyi took the lead in using his internal energy and transformed into a black shadow, taking advantage of the defenders on the top of the city not paying attention.
With a flash, his figure directly crossed the wall of the imperial city.
Jiang Chen was not to be outdone and followed closely behind, landing on the ground in the imperial city.
Following the map of the imperial city provided by the "Ant Hole", Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi dodged all the way.
After about a quarter of an hour, the two finally succeeded in reaching the vicinity of Zhu Qiyu's bedroom.
"My lord, the bedroom of Zhu Qiyu is in front of us."
"Can you tell me now what we are doing here tonight?"
Looking at Zhu Qiyu's bedroom which was so close at hand, Li Yuanyi asked Jiang Chen in a low voice.
This time, Jiang Chen did not choose to hide it and answered Li Yuanyi with a smile.
"According to the secret report from 'Anthole', Zhu Qiyu will soon have a breakthrough in martial arts in the next few days."
"So he plans to take a Bodhi seed to break through to the Dark Energy realm."
"But there are only two Bodhi seeds left in this world. How can I miss them?"
After hearing Jiang Chen's answer, Li Yuanyi understood Jiang Chen's intention.
Wow, it took all this effort in the middle of the night.
It turns out that my lord is coveting all of someone else's Bodhi seeds!
Li Yuanyi stood there speechless for a moment, but soon came to his senses.
Since his master wants to get all the Bodhi seeds, it doesn't matter if Li Yuanyi risks his life!
In this way, after a low discussion, the two came to the roof of Zhu Qiyu's bedroom.
Looking at the sleepy soldiers on duty outside the palace, the two men couldn't help but smile.
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi flashed at the same time and sneaked into Zhu Qiyu's bedroom.
But there was no one in the bedroom at this time.
But this is obviously normal. As the king of a country, Zhu Qiyu is not in his own palace so late.
That must be to pamper the three thousand beauties in his harem!
This is absolutely good news for Jiang Chen and Li Yuanyi.
After making sure that there was no one in the bedroom, the two of them began to rummage through the drawers and cabinets in the bedroom.
For a moment, the entire Zhu Qiyu's bedroom was turned upside down by the two men.
After a careful search, neither of them found the legendary Bodhi seed.
"It's strange, this Bodhi seed is such an important thing."
"Could it be that Zhu Qiyu has been keeping it with him all this time?"
Jiang Chen looked at the messy bedroom and said with some disappointment.
Seeing that Jiang Chen couldn't find it either, Li Yuanyi walked over on tiptoe.
"My Lord, it's getting late, why don't we go back first?"
After hearing what Li Yuanyi said, Jiang Chen had no choice but to nod helplessly.
"Well, it seems that I can only try my best to get the Bodhi seed that was awarded as a reward for the competition."
After saying that, Jiang Chen prepared to sneak out of the bedroom with Li Yuan.
However, just when Jiang Chen was about to get down from Zhu Qiyu's bed.
No one knew where Jiang Chen had touched, but suddenly a slight noise came from the middle of the bed.
“Crack—”
Hearing the noise, Jiang Chen was slightly delighted and quickly turned around to lift up the quilt on the bed.
I saw that there was a mezzanine rising above the original bed.
There are several things placed in this mezzanine!
Jiang Chen didn't have time to take a closer look and just took out all the things.
It was divided into two parts, one part was given to Li Yuanyi to carry.
As for the rest, Jiang Chen carefully put it into his arms.
After doing all this, Jiang Chen took Li Yuanyi and quickly rushed out of the bedroom.
Following the same route they came, they rushed out of the imperial city.
I don’t know whether they were lucky or the defenders of the Northern Ming Imperial City were just decorations.
The two of them were not even noticed by them while they were going back and forth!
After returning to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Jiang Chen did not check the gains of this trip.
After instructing Li Yuanyi to hide the things, he changed into his night clothes, hugged Su Qingcheng and fell asleep.
The next morning, after having pleasure with his favorite concubine, Zhu Qiyu returned to his bedroom radiantly.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw the bedroom which was in a mess due to Jiang Chen and his men.
Zhu Qiyu was stunned for a moment. After a while, he came to his senses and hurried to his bed.
Looking at the empty mezzanine, Zhu Qiyu's whole body swayed and fell to the ground.
"ah--!"
Suddenly, a cry of grief and anger was heard from the bedroom.
Hearing the scream, the soldiers outside the bedroom rushed in quickly.
Looking at the messy bedroom and Zhu Qiyu lying unconscious on the ground.
A group of soldiers shouted in panic.
"Oh no! The emperor has been assassinated! Hurry, go get the imperial physician!"
Soon, under the treatment of the imperial physician, Zhu Qiyu, who had fainted from anger, woke up.
The first thing Zhu Qiyu did after waking up was to shout loudly.
"Go, find the commander who was on duty in the bedroom last night!"
"I want to ask him, how did he keep watch!?"
