Ye Chutang used the light to survey the secret passage.
"The Capital City really is a den of crouching tigers and hidden dragons," Ye Chutang remarked pointedly.
For a mere Junior Minister of the Ministry of Rites to go to such lengths, to pour so much effort into building a secret passage… it was hard not to read more into it.
If the Han Family's residence hadn't caught fire today, allowing Su Pei'er and the others to escape through this passage, no outsider would have ever guessed such a secret was hidden here.
Shen Yanchuan raised an eyebrow.
Suddenly, he stopped, his gaze fixing on the wall to his left.
Ye Chutang also stopped, following his gaze.
"Princely Heir?"
Shen Yanchuan didn't speak, only curling his finger to knock lightly on the wall.
KNOCK KNOCK.
The wall was hollow!
He turned to Lian Zhou and ordered, "Get it open."
"Yes!"
Lian Zhou acknowledged and immediately stepped forward.
