The key was actually in the butler's pocket. In recent years, Xiao Zhan was away on military campaigns, and the management of the huge palace was left to him alone.
It would be hard for anyone not to be tempted by so much gold, silver and treasures, but the butler would not be tempted.
The butler was picked up from outside the Great Wall when the late emperor led his troops to war in his early years. The late emperor not only asked the imperial physician to cure his chronic illness, but also sent people to teach him martial arts. Finally, he was placed in the secret guard.
Before the death of the late emperor, he ordered the secret guards to hide among the people and at the same time, he asked the housekeeper to stay in the palace.
He also ordered that if the two brothers ever met in battle, he hoped that he could protect Xiao Zhan.
