Ouyang Yunyao wanted to win the battle quickly and didn't want to waste any more time, so she waved her hand lightly and instantly moved the other two teams of soldiers from the Artifact Battalion that had been arranged in the space out of the space.

They were responsible for cleaning out the people in the house who had been knocked unconscious by them, and gathering all of them in the hall in front.

The soldiers of the Artifact Battalion heard Ouyang Yunyao's order and left a few soldiers to guard the people who had been knocked unconscious in the hall. The other soldiers followed Ouyang Yunyao out of the hall.

When Wei Lei saw Ouyang Yunyao coming out, he immediately flew in front of her, made a gesture of wiping his neck, and whispered, "Princess, the two secret guards nearby have been dealt with."

"Okay, let's continue. Let the soldiers from the Artifact Camp clean up here." She waved her little hand to the soldiers from the Artifact Camp, and they quickly dispersed.

When they had dealt with all the people from Xiaoyao Palace in the house, it was already half an hour later. Almost all the secret guards in the house were killed by them with one sword. Only those who looked valuable were knocked unconscious and dragged to the front hall and piled together.

Finally, Ouyang Yunyao and everyone searched the house thoroughly again, confirming that there was no one here and that nothing important was found.

Ouyang Yunyao looked at the time. It was still nearly two hours before dawn, so she took out a few truth-telling pills from her bosom, handed them to Wei Lei, and said in a deep voice: "Wei Lei, you and An Yi and a few others, interrogate the five people who were just in the hall.

They look like small leaders, preparing to carry out some mission. Check them out and see what their plans are."

"Yes, Princess." Wei Lei took the truth pill and responded.

"Let's wake someone up first and ask them where the palace master's room is?" Ouyang Yunyao thought for a moment and said.

"Yes! I'll go right away." An Yi responded and walked up to the people who were tied up by the Artifact Camp.

An Yi stepped forward first, stuffed a truth serum pill into a man's mouth, and slapped him on the back to make him swallow the pill, and also woke him up.

When he woke up and was still in a daze, he was asked and found out that Man Chuchu lived in the house in the middle of the third courtyard.

Ouyang Yunyao asked Wei Lei and the others to continue the interrogation, while she took Xiao Cui, Xia Yan and Xia Fei to find the secret passage, which was the secret passage that those people took her from the house to the boat.

When she was led by Xue Feiwu into the secret passage, she noticed that there were two houses in the secret passage with their doors closed. She didn't know if there was anything hidden in there, so she decided to go and explore.

They came to the third courtyard and found the room where the palace master lived. Ouyang Yunyao opened the door and lit the candle on the table. The dim candlelight instantly illuminated the entire room.

"Princess, it seems that the secret passage is in this room?" Xiao Cui looked around with a hint of excitement in her eyes. In order to keep an eye on the princess, she stared at the screen and didn't even dare to blink.

Ouyang Yunyao raised her lips slightly and looked at Xiao Cui: "Yes, you should know where the cave entrance is, right?"

Xiao Cui nodded repeatedly, like a chick pecking at rice: "Princess, I know, I know, I'll take a look." She quickly walked to a side room to take a look.

Xia Fei ran to the other side of the room to check. Her eyes fell on a row of antique shelves, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she shouted quickly: "Princess, Princess, it's this way!"

She had some impression of this antique shelf in her mind. At that time, she and Xiao Cui were watching the monitor together, but when she saw the princess being arrested suddenly, she hurried to find the prince. When she handed the monitor to the prince, she happened to glance at this place.

Xiao Cui was originally looking at this place and thought it was not right. When she heard Xia Fei's shout, she hurried over. Seeing the layout of the room, she excitedly pointed at the antique shelf and said, "Princess, Princess, it's here! The mechanism is on that shelf!"

In fact, Ouyang Yunyao knew clearly that the entrance to the secret passage was behind this antique shelf. When she was taken away by Xue Feiwu, she saw the bottom floor of the antique shelf.

After returning to the palace, she watched the surveillance video again and carefully looked at how to open the secret door.

"Okay, let me try." Ouyang Yunyao walked forward and gently turned a celadon vase on the antique shelf. Sure enough, with a slight "click", the antique shelf slowly moved to the side, revealing a small door.

Then Ouyang Yunyao waved her hand, took out a flashlight from the space, and shone it into the small door.

Behind the small door is a small dark room, and next to the door is a staircase leading downwards.

They entered the dark room and found it empty. It seemed that the masters of Xiaoyao Palace had just come from Laiyang City and had not had time to deploy here.

Ouyang Yunyao shone a flashlight at the staircase and found a small door connected to the ground. But this door was not closed.

If this small door is closed, even if ordinary people open the secret door of the antique display cabinet, they will just think it is an ordinary dark room.

The four of them, the master and the servant, went down the small staircase into the secret passage. The oil lamp in the small hole on the wall of the secret passage was still on. They walked along the secret passage for a short distance and found a small door on the side wall with a lock on it.

Xia Yan quickly pulled out a dagger from her waist and skillfully pried open the door lock. She exclaimed, "Princess, there are boxes all over here."

"Oh, there are boxes?" Ouyang Yunyao followed him in and scanned the area with a flashlight. There were about twenty boxes inside, and each one was locked.

"Princess, do you want to open it?" Xia Yan looked at Ouyang Yunyao and asked.

"No need to go through so much trouble." Ouyang Yunyao raised her eyes slightly, and casually took out a pistol with a silencer from the space, and fired at the locks on the boxes one by one. With the sound of the locks cracking softly, the locks of those boxes were all opened.

Xiao Cui and Xia Fei immediately stepped forward, each opening a box, and both exclaimed at the same time: "Princess, gold!" "Princess, this is gold too!"

Ouyang Yunyao looked at the glittering gold nuggets in the box, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and her brows slightly frowned: "So much gold?"

She was a little confused. Didn't those people just arrive in Kyoto? Where did all this gold come from? Did they bring it with them?

But as the boxes were opened one after another, they discovered that among the more than 20 boxes, only four contained gold, and the rest were filled with large jars.

"Princess, why are there so many jars here? Are all the gold in the jars?" Xiao Cui asked curiously as she looked at so many jars and was about to reach out to open the lid of a jar.

"Don't touch it!" Ouyang Yunyao was holding a flashlight and shining it carefully on the jar. She happened to see Xiao Cui's action and immediately spoke out to stop her.
