The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Han Xue sighed softly, "That's great, but unfortunately, we...can't wait any longer. If, there is a next life..."

She turned her head with great effort, hugged the child tightly, and finally kissed the child's already cold forehead, "In the next life, we will be mother and son again."

Chu Yunxi turned her head away, not able to bear to watch any longer. No one else spoke either. The secret passage was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

After Han Xue finished speaking, her arms loosened and she slowly fell to the ground, her face facing Tuan Tuan and her eyes closed.

Chu Yunxi didn't move for a long time until Xiao Mubei took her hand and said, "Their family of three is finally reunited. You should be happy for her."

Chu Yunxi slowly got up from the ground and said in a cold voice: "My Lord, I want Wang Youkang to pay with his life."

"Don't worry, Hanxue and Tuantuan's deaths will not be in vain. Such a tragedy will never happen again in Muyue Town. I swear." Xiao Mubei held Chu Yunxi's hand tightly.

At this time, Zi Han, who had gone out to explore the way, came back quickly and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, the exit ahead is in a forest. When I went out just now, I saw Chen Da and his men coming over. They should be here to block the exit of the secret passage."

"Let's go quickly." Wen Rulan said, "Only after we get out can we deal with Wang Youkang and the Chen brothers."

"Yeah." Chu Yunxi responded, took out the handkerchief she carried with her, covered Hanxue's face with it, then bent her arms, put Tuantuan in her arms and hugged her tightly, tidied up Tuantuan's swaddling clothes, and then stood up and said, "Let's go."

Zi Han said: "Purple Guards, follow me and clear the way."

A group of purple-robed guards responded, and Wen Rulan said, "I'll go with you."

Zi Han glanced at Wen Rulan and knew that his martial arts skills were much better than hers, so she nodded and said, "Okay, thank you, Master Wen."

So Zi Han and Wen Rulan led the Purple Guards to the exit first, and Xiao Mubei, Chu Yunxi and Chu Zhongxi followed behind.

But before he reached the exit, thick smoke came in and the people threw down a lot of flaming branches.

"Damn it!" Zi Han was so angry that she jumped up and down. She had originally brought a purple-robed guard out to scout the way. She went back to report and asked the purple-robed guard to guard the exit. Now it seemed that the purple-robed guard was in great danger.

Chu Yunxi's mind was extremely calm at the moment. She said to Xiao Mubei, "My Lord, are the soldiers from Yongzhou's military camp coming soon?"

The Yongzhou military camp was only twenty miles away. Bai Yu rode his horse at the fastest speed and they should be almost there by now.

After getting Xiao Mubei's reply, Chu Yunxi said, "Let's go back. There is nothing flammable in this secret passage. Once the branches are burned out, they will not burn again. They dare not come down. At most, they will seal the exit and trap us here. We are in the middle of the secret passage, and the fires on both sides cannot burn us. When the fire on the Chen family's side is almost burned out, we can go out from there. As long as the Yongzhou soldiers arrive, Wang Youkang will not be able to escape."

Everyone agreed, so they went back to the center of the secret passage and saw so many rooms. There was nothing to do, so they went to investigate each room separately, leaving the purple guards to patrol the secret passage.

Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi entered one of the rooms. When they opened the door, Chu Yunxi's eyes were almost blinded by the light.

There was a whole room full of gold, silver and jewelry piled up in the room. They weren't even packed in boxes, but just piled on the ground like a small mountain.

Chu Yunxi rubbed her eyes and asked, "My Lord, is there more in the treasury than this silver? You shouldn't feel anything when you see so much gold and silver treasures, right?"

Xiao Mubei said: "Only the Ministry of Revenue knows how much silver is in the treasury. Anyway, I have never seen so much gold and silver treasures."

"That's good. I feel relieved then." Chu Yunxi felt that she was not surprised by anything, so she indulged herself in experiencing the feeling of lying in a pile of money.

"I wonder if the other rooms are like this too. If they are all filled with gold, silver and jewelry, then there is probably more silver here than in the national treasury. Your Majesty is going to make a fortune again." Chu Yunxi said with envy.

This money must be turned over to the national treasury.

"Let's go and check out other rooms." Xiao Mubei pulled Chu Yunxi up from the pile of money and went to other rooms.

As soon as he walked out, he heard Chu Zhongxi calling Xiao Mubei, "Prince, come here, little sister, you stay outside first."

"What? You won't let me see it?"

Chu Yunxi saw Wen Rulan studying the lock of one of the rooms. She hadn't opened the door yet, and Chu Zhongxi didn't let her go in. She was extremely curious. The more Chu Zhongxi blocked her, the more she wanted to go in. She took advantage of the moment when Chu Zhongxi and Xiao Mubei turned around to enter and followed them in at an extremely fast speed.

As soon as she entered the room, Chu Yunxi was stunned. The room was no longer filled with gold, silver and treasures, but was filled with utensils hanging on the walls.

Whips, ropes, chains, collars, white jade sticks... and an iron bed with four locking rings at the four corners. If a person lies on it, they can be buckled around the wrists and ankles.

You can tell what it is used for at a glance. Chu Yunxi understood why Chu Zhongxi didn't let her in. This was indeed quite embarrassing, especially since Xiao Mubei was next to them.

So she said awkwardly: "You guys chat, I'm going to go out first." After that, she fled from the room.

Chu Zhongxi shook his head helplessly, "My little sister has been spoiled by us since she was a child, please don't mind it, Your Majesty."

Xiao Mubei smiled dotingly, "I think Yunxi has a good personality. She has helped me solve many cases recently."

Chu Zhongxi didn't dwell on this, pointing at the tools and saying, "It seems that the Chen brothers not only let those women do the false accusations, but also don't treat them as human beings, wantonly toying with and torturing them. When they get tired of playing with them or when the children are old, they will kill them and look for new targets."

Xiao Mubei said bitterly: "These beasts, killing them is too easy for them, we must capture them alive, parade them through the streets, and torture them to death. Their bodies must be hung on the city gates for three months, otherwise it will be difficult to comfort the souls of these victims."

"Yes, it's outrageous."

The two came out of the room and didn't see Chu Yunxi, but saw Zi Han guarding the door of a room. Seeing Xiao Mubei reported: "Your Majesty, the princess took Han Xue's body in for an autopsy, and told you to let your Majesty and the Marquis wait outside."

Why are you checking Han Xue's body again now?

Xiao Mubei was puzzled, but Chu Yunxi must have her reasons for doing things. He turned his head and saw Wen Rulan still fiddling with the lock, so he walked over and asked, "Is it difficult to open?"

"It's a mechanical lock. It's a little hard to open, but it will be opened soon." Wen Rulan fiddled with it for a while, and with a light "click", the lock opened.

When the door was opened, Wen Rulan and Xiao Mubei stood at the door without going in. Anyone who saw the scene in the room would be shocked.
