After being replaced, she changed from a miserable daughter-in-law to a lucky wife

Chapter 440 Entrance to the Underground Palace

Xiao Chiye turned around and saw the three children behind him. He stood up and picked up all three children at once: "They have grown heavier, stronger, and taller."

Xiao Zimu looked at the armor on his body, then looked at the army at the foot of the mountain: "Dad, are you going to the war?"

Xiao Chiye patted his shoulder and said, "I have to go take care of some things. You and Uncle Xiong and the others wait for us here."

"Can't go?" Xiao Zimu looked expectant.

Xiao Chiye nodded: "No, I will take you to the military camp when you are ten years old. You are too young now."

Although Xiao Zimu felt regretful, he also knew that he would only become a burden if he followed them: "Okay."

After a day's rest, Xia Wanniang, Yun He and Xiao Chiye headed towards the garrison at the foot of the mountain the next day.

Xiao Chiye saw Yun He and said, "We caught a man before, and he told us one thing."

Yun He turned to look at him with a serious face: "What's the matter?"

“The reason why the Second Prince started the rebellion was not his own intention. He was poisoned by a poisonous insect and was controlled by it.” After Xiao Chiye said this, he stopped talking.

Yunhe almost fell to the ground. He asked why his master would not listen to his advice. His Majesty was not an unreasonable person, but he just insisted on doing what he wanted.

It turned out that all this was not his intention, but he had no choice: "Who is it?"

Xiao Chiye said calmly: "It was his personal servant who was bribed by Pu Xingyu and put a Gu on him."

Yun He punched a tree trunk nearby, breaking it in half. "The master treated him so well, why would he do this?"

Neither Xiao Chiye nor Xia Wanniang could give him an answer, after all, they were not involved.

Xia Wanniang looked at Xiao Chiye: "Did he confess everything?"

Xiao Chiye looked at the army below and said, "My father unfortunately died in battle because of the poison. The person who poisoned him didn't have a good ending in the end. The poison in my sister-in-law and me was also his doing."

"Why?" Xia Wanniang sometimes didn't quite understand Pu Xingyu.

Xiao Chiye: "In order to keep the Northwest under his control, so that he can cause chaos in the Northwest at any time, and make the attacks outside the pass as unmanned as possible."

Xia Wanniang frowned slightly: "Then why did you take action only now?"

“Even if the Xiao family is not here, the other generals are not so easy to control. He has just taken control of the Northwest Army. It’s a pity that he encountered us, the variable that made his previous layout come to nothing.” After Xiao Chiye finished speaking, he had already arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Xia Wanniang climbed onto the horse, and all her plans turned out to be in vain.

It took them three days of travel before they arrived at the mountain wall that Lai Fu had mentioned.

Xiao Chiye looked at the wall in front of him: "Is this the place?"

Xia Wanniang nodded: "It should be here, but there must be some mechanism activated."

Xiao Chiye circled the stone wall a few times and stopped on a raised stone: "Be careful, I'm afraid there may be a trap."

Xia Wanniang and the others found a place to hide and watched him use his spear to press down the stone in front of him.

The stone wall in front of him slowly opened, and countless arrows shot out from it.

The spear in Xiao Chiye's hand flew, and he dodged the arrows shot out from inside.

When there were no more arrows shot out from inside, many men in black poured out of the cave and rushed towards Xiao Chiye.

The soldiers and Xia Wanniang no longer hid, but rushed out and fought with these men in black.

A man behind the man in black rushed over and attacked Xia Wanniang.

Yun He sensed the danger, so he moved her behind him and exchanged palm strikes with the man in front of him. Both of them took a few steps back.

Xia Wanniang clearly felt that Yun He's breath was a little unstable: "Are you okay?"

Yunhe swallowed the fishy sweetness in his mouth and shook his head gently at Xia Wanniang.

The man opposite saw Xia Wanniang's face clearly: "It's you."

Xia Wanniang calmly stuffed a pill into Yunhe's hand and turned to look at the man opposite: "It seems that you still remember me."

The man turned his head and looked at Xiao Chiye next to him: "You deserve to die."

Yun He threw the pill in his hand into his mouth: "We don't know who will die yet." After saying that, he raised his sword and rushed towards the man.

On the other side, a servant stumbled into the underground palace: "Your Highness, Your Highness, it's bad, someone is coming in from outside."
