Playing the Pig and Eating the Tiger: My Funny System is Too Fierce

Chapter 214 Hidden Secrets

"Your Highness, please look at this." The third young lady walked into the imperial study holding an ancient book.

This was seized from the base of a mysterious organization. It looks like an ordinary medical book, but when you open it, you will find that it contains something else.

Mo Yunchen stopped writing with the red pen in his hand: "What's wrong?"

"This book is very special," the third young lady unfolded the pages, "look at these markings."

The book not only records various medicinal prescriptions, but also places special marks between certain words and sentences. These marks may seem chaotic at first glance, but a closer look reveals hidden meanings.

"This is..." Mo Yunchen looked carefully, "Password?"

"Yes," the third young lady nodded, "it's the same technique used in the previous painting."

At this moment, the niece came rushing over: "Third sister, there is a new discovery!"

She brought astonishing news: by deciphering the code, she discovered that this medical book was actually the core text of a mysterious organization! It not only recorded the formulas for various strange poisons, but also the complete layout of the organization.

"Interesting," Mo Yunchen sneered, "It seems that the Grand Tutor and the Imperial Concubine only know part of the secret."

Indeed, judging by the contents of the code, the scale of the mysterious organization far exceeds imagination. In addition to the bases that have been seized, there are many deeply hidden branches.

"This is troublesome," the Third Miss frowned. "These branches are spread all over the place. It's not easy to wipe them out."

"Don't worry," Mo Yunchen said, "Now that we have found this book, let's follow the clues and investigate."

Over the next few days, everyone began to carefully study the medical book. Gradually, more secrets surfaced: it turned out that this organization not only researched poisons, but also secretly trained a large number of assassins.

"Your Highness," the Third Miss pointed to a section of code, "it mentions 'Tianji Pavilion' here."

"Tianji Pavilion?"

"Yes," the niece explained, "according to records, this is the core of the organization. All important decisions are made from here."

A cold light flashed in Mo Yunchen's eyes: "Find it! Find this Tianji Pavilion for me!"

At this time, my cousin brought a new clue: when checking the account books of the Ministry of Revenue, she found some suspicious expenditures. These funds were ostensibly used for various purposes, but in fact they all flowed to the same place.

"I've found out," my cousin said. "It's a manor on the outskirts of the capital."

"Let's go," Mo Yunchen immediately stood up, "Let's go take a look."

When they arrived at the manor, they found it looked ordinary, like an ordinary private school. But after a careful search, they finally made a significant discovery.

"Your Highness!" The Third Young Lady pointed to a mechanism in the cellar. "Look at this."

It was an ingenious device. After pressing the mechanism, the wall of the cellar slowly moved away, revealing a secret passage!

"Heh," Mo Yunchen sneered, "You're really good at hiding."

Walking down the secret passage, the view suddenly opened up: this was a huge underground space, surrounded by bookshelves and utensils. And in the center, a plaque was prominently placed: Tianji Pavilion!

"Finally found it," the third young lady exclaimed, "This is their headquarters."

As they were talking, they suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps. Before anyone could react, they saw several dark shadows flash by!

"Be careful!" Mo Yunchen pulled the third lady over and drew out his sword at the same time.

The assassins who arrived were from the Tianji Pavilion, all of them experts. However, they hadn't expected that the Crown Prince and the Third Young Lady were also quite skilled in martial arts. After a fierce battle, the assassins were all subdued.

"Search!" Mo Yunchen ordered, "Don't leave even a single inch!"

Soon, a large number of documents were found, which detailed the organization's operation and their ultimate plan.

"So that's what it is," Miss San said with a serious expression after reading the document. "They want to control the entire court!"

Indeed, judging by their plans, the mysterious organization had great ambitions. They not only wanted to plant spies in the government, but also secretly support puppets, ultimately gaining complete control of the government.

"These people," Mo Yunchen sneered, "are really bold."

At this moment, another new discovery was made: a list was found in a secret compartment. This list recorded the core members of the organization, many of whom were important officials in the court!

"These people..." Miss San sighed as she looked at the list, "They're really well hidden."

"It doesn't matter," Mo Yunchen said, "Since we've discovered them, let's catch them all!"

A massive roundup began. Those members who had been hiding for years were apprehended one by one before they could react. During interrogation, they revealed more details.

It turns out the organization's influence is even greater than imagined. Besides their spies within the court, they also have numerous undercover agents in the local areas. These individuals usually remain hidden, waiting for the day when they can unite and act.

"No wonder those previous actions failed," the Third Miss suddenly realized, "it turns out that we alerted the enemy and put them on guard."

"This time is different," Mo Yunchen said, "I will make sure they never get a chance to turn things around!"

Thus began a thorough purge. From the capital to the provinces, from the officialdom to the underworld, all those connected to the organization were brought to justice. For a time, there was widespread panic.

"It's finally over," the third young lady breathed a sigh of relief. "This was really thrilling."

"It's not over yet," Mo Yunchen said, "I always feel like there's something I haven't discovered yet."

"Your Highness is saying..."

"For the Tianji Pavilion to have existed for so long, it must have a backup plan," Mo Yunchen analyzed. "Perhaps the biggest secret has not yet been revealed."

Sure enough, this guess was soon confirmed: during the interrogation of an important member, he revealed a shocking secret. It turned out that there was an even larger secret room hidden under the imperial city!

"Let's go!" Mo Yunchen immediately stood up, "Let's go see what this place is."

Digging at the location indicated in the confession, they discovered the secret room. Compared to the Tianji Pavilion, this one was larger and more well-equipped. Most striking was a blueprint hanging on the wall.

"This is..." Miss San looked carefully, "The underground layout of the entire imperial city?"

Indeed, the blueprints detailed all the secret passages and chambers beneath the Imperial City. Through these secret passages, the organization's members could freely enter and exit any part of the Imperial City!

"No wonder," Mo Yunchen suddenly realized, "No wonder they are so well-informed. It turns out they have dug such a big nest right under my feet."

"That's not all," the third young lady pointed to a corner of the drawing, "look at these markings."

The markings indicate that the organization has also established similar networks of secret rooms in other important cities. This is simply an underground kingdom!

"These people," Mo Yunchen sneered, "are quite ambitious."

"But now it's all good," said the Third Miss. "Their lair has been destroyed, and they can't cause any more trouble."

Indeed, with the discovery of this huge secret room, the organization's last fig leaf was also removed. Those who had been waiting and watching were now completely desperate.

"Seal!" Mo Yunchen ordered, "Seal all the secret passages, don't let any of them go!"

Just like that, this mysterious organization that had existed for decades was finally destroyed. Their stronghold was destroyed, their members were arrested, their secret passages were sealed, and they could no longer pose a threat to the imperial court.

"I can finally breathe a sigh of relief," the Third Miss sighed. "This was truly thrilling."

"But it's worth it," Mo Yunchen said, "At least it allowed me to see the true colors of these people."

Looking at the prince's resolute face, the third lady felt warm in her heart: this is her husband, a wise and responsible monarch.

"Your Highness..." she called softly.

Mo Yunchen turned to look at her: "What?"

"Nothing," the Third Miss said with a smile, "I just feel that it's great to have you."

Mo Yunchen rarely showed a gentle expression: "Silly girl, this is what you deserve."

Looking at the two flirting with each other, the niece and cousin laughed secretly: This is what they want to see.

After this turmoil, the court took on a completely new look. Those hidden threats were eliminated, and a new atmosphere began to emerge.

And this is exactly the future they are looking forward to.
