Jun Xiqing got off the bed.
They weren't the same kind of people after all. After a short moment of infatuation, she had to return to reality.
She lifted her feet, wanting to leave.
But after taking two steps, she stopped. She felt that the design of his room was very strange.
She reached out to touch the wall, feeling around carefully. Suddenly, she felt an empty space.
There was a mystery here.
There was a secret room in his room!
Jun Xiqing's heart raced. She had been with Uncle Jun since she was young and read a lot of books. As she was very interested in design, her four-dimensional sense of space was very acute. She could tell that there was something wrong with the design of his room.
Probably no one would be able to tell.
No one knew that there was a secret room in his room.
Jun Xiqing quickly left the place.
…
Outside the West Palace.
In a secluded alley, Jun Xiqing reached out to take off her hairpin. Her silky black hair cascaded down her shoulders like a waterfall.
With a wave of his hand, her little face changed, quickly revealing a spotless face of a girl.
At this moment, a shadow appeared. Ah Da had arrived. "Master, did you get West Duke's fingerprints?"
Jun Xiqing nodded. "I did."
"Then let's go to the prison now …"
Jun Xiqing raised her hand. "There's no need to go. West Duke recognized me long ago. My brother isn't in the prison."
"Then where is he?"
Jun Xiqing remained silent for a moment, then said softly, "Let's leave this place first. Oh right, where's Ah Xiao?"
"Elder Sister Qingqing, Brother." At this moment, a sweet voice rang out. Ah Xiao ran over.
"Ah Xiao, who told you to come to the West Palace? West Duke has a sharp sense of smell, he'll be exposed if there's even the slightest clue!" Ah Da reprimanded her.
Ah Xiao's face was red, her pretty eyes filled with the sweetness of a rose. She held onto Ah Da's arm and said coquettishly, "Alright Brother, don't criticize me anymore. I'm your only family in this world."
Ah Da revealed his love for his sister.
"Alright, Ah Da, Ah Xiao, let's leave."
Jun Xiqing and Ah Da walked in front while Ah Xiao walked at the back. She couldn't help but turn back to look at the huge West Palace.
The naivety on her pretty little face disappeared, and she revealed a strange smile …
…
The next morning.
Fan Men came to the door and knocked.
"Come in." A low and calm voice came from inside.
Fan Men pushed the door open and entered. "Duke, Jun Chulin's execution is about to begin but there hasn't been any movement so far."
Early in the morning, Lu Yeming took a cold shower and put on a white shirt and black trousers.
He lowered his handsome eyes and fastened the shiny silver button on his sleeve. His movements were elegant and clean.
Hearing Fan Men's words, the corners of his lips kicked up and he said coldly, "Don't worry, she will come."
At this moment, his subordinate's voice came from outside the door. "My King, someone has entered the dungeon and wants to kidnap Jun Chulin, but he has already been captured by our ambush!"
Lu Yeming's eyes shifted slightly, but his handsome face remained expressionless. "Let's go take a look!"
…
In the dungeon.
Lu Yeming brought Fan Men over. The person who had been captured was hugging his head and squatting in a corner. "West Duke, we're innocent. We're really not here to kidnap a prisoner. We're here to deliver food, but someone told us this morning that the food was to be delivered to the dungeon. They even gave us a fingerprint warrant."
Fan Men's expression changed. "Duke, it's Third Miss Jun. We've been tricked!"
Lu Yeming's expression didn't change, he didn't even frown.
His face appeared even more unfathomable in the dark.
"Your Highness, Third Miss Jun is indeed very intelligent and resourceful. It seems like she already knows that Jun Chulin is not in prison. But Your Highness, where exactly is Jun Chulin and where has Third Miss Jun gone to?"
Lu Yeming pursed his thin lips and said coldly, "Let's return to the West Palace."
…
In the West Palace, all the servants had fainted. Jun Xiqing brought Ah Da into Lu Yeming's master bedroom and opened the secret room.
Ah Da was surprised. "I didn't expect West Duke to have such a secret room in his bedroom. This West Duke is indeed very cunning."
"Let's go in."
Jun Xiqing stepped into the room.
More accurately speaking, there wasn't only a secret room inside, there was also an unfathomably deep secret tunnel.
The secret tunnel was very spacious and the lights were still on.
"Elder Brother." Jun Xiqing quickly saw Jun Chulin.
Jun Chulin had been well taken care of, but he was still unconscious.
Jun Xiqing checked for Elder Brother's breathing, then bit her finger hard and dripped two drops of blood into Jun Chulin's mouth.
Not only was she immune to all poisons, her blood was also an antidote to all poisons in this world.
West Duke, Lu Yeming, only knew that she had the Wuling Iron Steed Troop and the secret skill of wolf taming, but he didn't know that her blood was extremely rare.
As the blood dripped into Jun Chulin's mouth, Jun Chulin's finger moved quickly.
"Elder Brother." Jun Xiqing was elated.
But Jun Chulin still hadn't woken up.
"Ah Da, bring Elder Brother along. We'll leave through this secret tunnel immediately. There must be an exit."
"Yes, Master."
Ah Da carried Jun Chulin on his shoulder.
Jun Xiqing had walked for a while when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
What did she see?
In front of her, the two sides of the endless secret tunnel were filled with red beans.
The emerald green leaves were dotted with plump red beans. The sparkling and translucent red beans clustered together like red roses in full bloom.
She hadn't expected that there would be such a world of red beans in this secret tunnel.
Jun Xiqing walked forward, reaching out with her fair hand to caress the red bean.
Red beans.
Yearning red beans.
He had actually planted Acacia Red Beans in his secret passage.
"Master, it seems like only the West Duke knows about this secret room. He's such a manipulative person, yet he has such a poetic side to him. He planted this room full of red beans with his own hands. Who is he yearning for?"
Jun Xiqing's lashes quivered. That's right, who was he yearning for?
Ye Ruge?
No.
That wasn't it.
She could tell that even though he and Ye Ruge had been together for many years, it wasn't purely for personal gain.
Who was that woman?
Everyone knew that West Duke was still single. He didn't have a single woman in his private life. To put it bluntly, he only had one.
At the Passion River, he had pulled out the King's Sword, saying that he had been cursed by the King's Sword and had no love in his life.
Last night, she had asked him to get rid of the harem and have only one woman in each generation. He had rejected her without any hesitation.
From all the signs, it seemed like he was a heartless person.
He didn't understand love or affection.
But he had planted these red beans with his own hands. There was even a kettle and a hoe here. He must have poured his heart and soul into them.
Jun Xiqing suddenly felt that she had never understood him.
