Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Chapter 812 Heavenly Secrets Manual

"Your Highness, this is truly amazing! The key can actually guide us?"

Bai Zhi simply didn't know how to describe the shock she felt at that moment. It was true that following the princess, she could see all sorts of strange things.

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, "Because Master Tianji is a member of the Xuanmen sect, there is a connection between the key and the lock, so finding it is very simple for us."

However, this old fellow is cunning by nature, so he must have hidden himself in a very secluded place.

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi exchanged a glance. Their mission was to protect the princess and ensure that nothing happened to her!

Led by the key, Song Ruozhen and the other two traveled through many places before finally arriving at a courtyard.

"Could this be the courtyard that Master Tianji bought himself?" Qing Teng asked in surprise.

"It should be right here."

Song Ruozhen raised her eyebrows slightly. The courtyard in front of her was set up with a magic array, and the spiritual energy looked quite good. It was obviously the residence of people from the Xuanmen sect.

The dusty door latch clearly shows that no one has been here for a long time, indicating that this is the courtyard that Master Tianji bought himself.

"No one came after Master Tianji died? The Ling family was wiped out quite some time after Master Tianji's death," Bai Zhi said in surprise.

Song Ruozhen shook her head, "An old fox like Master Tianji would naturally hide his treasures. This place is his secret place, and he would never tell anyone else."

After all, this old guy has accumulated everything in his life here, how could he possibly let others know about it?

"Squeak."

As the courtyard gate opened, the three noticed that unlike the dusty outside, the inside was spotless.

"Princess, be careful!"

As soon as the courtyard gate opened, arrows flew in. Qing Teng and Bai Zhi quickly stepped in front of Song Ruozhen and blocked them one by one with their swords.

"The Five Elements and Eight Trigrams Formation?"

Looking at the familiar formation before her, Song Ruozhen immediately began to break it.

"Don't move around, lest you fall into the formation. Hold off these hidden weapons for a moment, and I'll break the deadlock."

"Yes, princess."

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi looked solemn and quickly began to block the attacks, while Song Ruozhen broke through the formation very quickly.

Whether it's the Five Elements, the Eight Trigrams, or the Qimen Dunjia, none of these are difficult for her. The level of the Heavenly Secrets Master is no match for her, and the array she has set up is naturally no exception!

"Follow me, this is the gate of life!"

Song Ruozhen quickly chose a direction and led Qing Teng and Bai Zhi across the area.

Once the attack by the hidden weapons stopped, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief and quickly headed towards the inner room.

"Master Tianji has quite a bit of money. This courtyard looks ordinary from the outside, but it has everything inside."

This guy probably originally planned to stay in the capital and live there. This courtyard clearly shows a lot of thought went into it; not only does it look understated, but even the underground passage was designed.

Song Ruozhen clicked her tongue in amazement, glancing at the things in the room; even the furnishings were not ordinary objects.

"Now that I've seen it, it's all mine!"

Looking at all the things in front of her, Song Ruozhen suddenly understood why those officials loved to confiscate property.

This feeling... is really great!

The confiscated items were to be given to the imperial court, but things were different for her now; everything she saw belonged to her!

After wandering around the huge courtyard for a while and checking all the dozen or so rooms, we finally found the corresponding lock in the tunnel.

"This Master Tianji is too good at hiding things. Why doesn't he hide them in his own room, but in this godforsaken place?"

Bai Zhi couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "He really is an old fox."

To them, this tunnel was simply a place for escape. It looked very simple and was pitch black. If it weren't for the princess leading the way, no one would have thought that someone would hide something here.

There's a hidden door here.

After Song Ruozhen opened the hidden door with the key, she found herself in a warehouse-like space.

Inside were several heavy boxes. Bai Zhi and Qing Teng stepped forward first and opened the lids.

Gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, and calligraphy and paintings immediately came into view, making the two of them widen their eyes in disbelief.

"Is being a fortune teller really that lucrative?"

Qing Teng rubbed his eyes. This chest full of gold was enough to live a carefree life for a lifetime, not to mention the many jewels and paintings.

If Master Tianji hadn't died, these things alone would have been enough for him to live a carefree life for the rest of his days.

"In this world, as long as you have no conscience, you can always make money quickly, especially in our line of work."

Song Ruozhen shrugged. For the Xuanmen sect, making money was far easier than in other industries, with countless methods available.

The most common tactic is to dig a hole for yourself and then wait for others to fall into it. Not only do you make money, but the other party will also be grateful.

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi exchanged a glance, thinking that their princess was not short of money, and if she wanted to make money, she certainly had many ways...

Song Ruozhen glanced at the gold and silver treasures, then turned her attention to a few books on the side.

Her intuition told her that the contents of these books might be more useful.

As she opened a secret manual, she was shocked to discover that the esoteric techniques recorded within were secret methods that had been lost for many years.

The manual was named "Heavenly Secrets," and Song Ruozhen recalled hearing about this manual from her master when she became the head of the Xuanmen sect.

Unfortunately, this secret manual has been lost for many years, and all they know about it are the remaining fragments.

"I actually found the complete book here?"

Holding the "Heavenly Secrets" manual in her hand, Song Ruozhen could not hide her excitement. She felt that everything in front of her was no longer a book, but a real world.

She flipped to the last two pages of the manual, and sure enough, they were exactly as she remembered them.

"When Master first mentioned this matter, he was very regretful and hoped that one day he could restore the Heavenly Secrets Manual to its complete state. Unexpectedly, this has come true by some twist of fate."

That bastard Master Tianji, he probably named himself Master Tianji because he obtained this secret manual, right?

After a moment's thought, Song Ruozhen was almost certain of her guess, but the corners of her lips couldn't help but curve upwards.

"This trip... was incredibly profitable!"

Qing Teng and Bai Zhi were dazzled by the gold and silver jewels, but seeing their princess holding a secret manual with great joy, they couldn't help but sigh:

“The princess is indeed different from us ordinary people; all we see is money.”

Bai Zhi chuckled, "Otherwise, how could she be our master?"

Song Ruozhen turned her head and happened to overhear their conversation. She smiled and grabbed the silver in both hands, stuffing it into their hands. "This is your reward for accompanying me today. You can take it back and enjoy it!"

Qing Teng was shocked. "Your Highness, this is far too much!"

"Just accept them as I told you to. Pick out some jewelry you like too," Song Ruozhen said with a smile.
