Mingshu thought it over carefully, bringing a bona fide prince to crawl through a dog hole really seemed quite inappropriate. She pondered over taking a different path, but then she saw Si Chu bend over without changing his expression, nimbly using hands and feet to squeeze through.
The level of proficiency completely belied it being his first time doing such a thing.
Mingshu: "..."
Though she disdained it, he did crawl pretty fast.
The two stopped in front of the last door, which had a lock hanging on it.
A flicker of disappointment crossed Si Chu's eyes.
Indeed, how could such an important place as the Imperial Kitchen be so unguarded.
This Mysterious Iron Lock was crafted by the best craftsmen in the palace, and it could only be opened with the matching key.
Otherwise, even if a great thief capable of flying across the skies came, they wouldn't be able to get through this door.
