Emperor Shen's charming wife
Chapter 16: A clear mirror hangs high, preparing for another battle
After rounds of heated discussions, they finally discovered that the anonymous letter actually contained subtle hints about the mysterious person's action pattern. "Your Majesty, please take a look at this letter." Ning Yao pointed to a paragraph in the letter, her expression solemn. "The letter said that the mysterious person will take action on the day of the imperial mausoleum sacrifice. Does this mean that their next move is very likely to attack the imperial mausoleum?" Shen Yu's eyes were full of worry. "It is possible." Ning Yao nodded, her eyes firm. "Then how should we deal with it?" Eunuch Li asked with a confused look. "We can use the same trick against the other party. On the one hand, we can pretend to be unaware and secretly strengthen the guard force around the imperial mausoleum; on the other hand, we can send people to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the mysterious person and strive to catch him in one fell swoop." Ning Yao's eyes were resolute. "Okay, just do as General Ning said and act immediately." Shen Yu nodded, his eyes firm. In order to verify her speculation, Ning Yao resolutely decided to use the same trick against the other party. On the one hand, she pretended to be unaware and quietly strengthened the guard force around the imperial mausoleum; on the other hand, she personally led a well-trained elite team and took advantage of the dark night to sneak into the abandoned palace suspected to be the base of the mysterious man, hoping to find more conclusive direct evidence. There was a dead silence all around, and only the slight footsteps of the team members echoed in the empty palace. "General, it looks gloomy and scary here. Is there any danger?" A soldier lowered his voice, and his tone revealed an undisguised fear. "Don't be afraid, as long as we act carefully, we will be able to deal with it." Ning Yao's eyes were as firm as iron, conveying fearless courage to everyone. Everyone searched the palace carefully with fear, not daring to let go of every corner. "General, what do you think this is?" A soldier pointed to a stone slab, his expression nervous and solemn. Ning Yao walked forward quickly and carefully observed the complex pattern on the stone slab with the weak firelight. "This is a mechanism." Ning Yao's eyes flashed with a glimmer of excitement. "General, are you saying, what is hidden underneath?" a soldier asked with a puzzled look on his face. "Yes, let's try to see if we can open it." Ning Yao nodded firmly. Everyone worked together to push the stone slab away, revealing a bottomless, dark passage underneath. "General, underneath..." a soldier's face showed an unconcealed surprise. "Go down and take a look." Ning Yao's eyes were as firm as before. Everyone walked down the passage carefully, and at the end of the passage was a tightly closed secret room. "General, what do you think this is?" a soldier pointed to a box in the secret room with a solemn look. Ning Yao walked forward and slowly opened the box, revealing a stack of documents. "This is..." Ning Yao's eyes were full of surprise. "General, what is this?" a soldier asked with a puzzled look on his face. "This is an attack plan against the royal family, and there is also a detailed map of the imperial mausoleum." Ning Yao's eyes became more and more determined. "General, are you saying that the next move of the mysterious person is likely to be an attack on the imperial mausoleum?" a soldier's face was full of surprise. "That's right, we must report this to the emperor immediately." Ning Yao nodded decisively. "Yes, General." Everyone responded. During the operation, they indeed found a secret room, which contained a large number of attack plans against the royal family, as well as a detailed map of the imperial mausoleum, which confirmed their previous conjecture and laid the foundation for the subsequent head-on confrontation.
