Chapter 451: Spring Hall Moon Tower


Bing Wu was arrested, but the case is still full of fog.

Zhan Zhao and the others arrived at the palace first, and the purpose of the two was to explore the Four Seas Palace, but there was some chaos in the palace at this time.

The guards strengthened their defenses, and the Eighth Prince was very nervous about Zhao Zhen's safety.

Zhao Pu's Dadan was also anxious at this time.

After the spiders were removed, Dadan's retinue regained their senses, one by two in a state of chaos, they didn't quite know what they had done when they were controlled, and they didn't even know what had happened in the three days before they were controlled.

Gongsun examined them, and it turned out that the spider that controlled them had a certain amount of toxicity, which would paralyze people's nerves, resulting in the loss of a part of their memory.

It's easy to treat them, but that part of the memory that's gone won't come back Fortunately, Zhao Zhen was reasonable and knew that this matter was not intentional by Dadan, but Dadan himself did not want to go, feeling that he had caused trouble to Zhao Pu and almost caused a catastrophe.

Bai Yutang and Zhanzhao asked Master Wusha, who was still in the palace, whether this spider would allow people who didn't know martial arts to have martial arts in addition to being able to control people Master Wusha shook his head, the Soldier Spider King was indeed good at using poisonous spiders to control people back then, but his martial arts were still practiced by himself, and it was impossible to conjure up a martial art out of thin air after being poisoned.

So Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other and thought of someone.

According to the clues prompted by Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, Zhao Zhen asked the guards to arrest two people, one of whom was Chen Yuanwai, who lied that he had lost a million silver taels, thus almost causing infighting in the Imperial City Army.

The other is a civil official who secretly instructed Chen Yuanwai and was controlled by Bing Spider, and he was also Huang Fuzi's protégé, Xu Ren.

Xu Ren's spider has been removed, and the whole person feels like waking up from a dream.

Chen Yuanwai was already trembling with feat, he heard that someone in the palace had assassinated Zhao Zhen, and he felt that his family was probably doomed.

Without waiting for Zhao Zhen to ask, Chen Yuanwai confessed that he was blackmailed, and his entire family's life was in the hands of a mysterious person, who instructed him to have dinner with several guards of the Imperial City Army in the teahouse, and lied about the robbery, and the person who had been in contact with him was Xu Ren.

Everyone asked him who the mysterious person was, and Chen Yuanwai said that he had only seen a figure in the carriage from a distance, and knew that Xu Ren called him Lord, and nothing else was clear.

And looking at Xu Ren again, at this time, the civil official was patting his forehead, as if he was thinking about something.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang obviously felt his internal strength, this person knew martial arts, and his martial arts were not weak.

So, everyone's attention was on Xu Ren's body, he needed to be controlled by a poisonous spider, which meant that he was not originally a person from Bingwu's side, so why did he hide the fact that he knew martial arts, became a civil official, and this person was Huang Fuzi's protégé, whether it had anything to do with Huang Fuzi's death "Who are you?"

Nangong Ji asked Xu Ren, "What is the purpose of blending into the palace?"

Xu Ren suddenly laughed, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Lord Nangong, do you remember the lantern cake you ate when you were a child" Nangong was slightly stunned and stared at Xu Ren, "You" Zhao Zhen was also surprised, "Lantern cake" Bai Yutang frowned, wondering how to talk about the case and the dim sum, turned his face to look at Zhan Zhao, and sure enough, Zhan Zhao's expression was obviously that he had never eaten the lantern cake, and it felt good to hear At this time, Zhao Pu walked in outside, he also heard Xu Ren's words, and frowned, "The kind of pastry that Qige made when I was a child?"

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at Zhao Pu.

Zhao Pudao, "The pastries made by Qige are particularly delicious, because she makes lanterns, always makes pastries in the middle of the night, and sends them with lanterns, with a variety of patterns, so we all call the pastries she makes collectively called lantern cakes." ” "Every time Qige makes a pastry, the guards will snatch it up."

Nangong also recalled some things when he was a child, "because the taste is very good." ” Zhao Pu tilted his head to look at Xu Ren, and after a long time, he touched his chin, "You seem to be a little familiar" Xu Ren stretched out his hand, lifted his front hair, and went down to his head, revealing his head.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang noticed a black mole the size of a grain of rice on the left side of his head.

"Ah" Zhao Pu and Nangong shouted at the same time, and Zhao Zhen looked at the two of them with some puzzlement.

"You're the little cook in the Imperial Dining Room."

Nangong asked.

Zhao Pu nodded on the side, Zhao Zhen was still at a loss, and Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were puzzled Nangong explained, "In the past, there was a chef named Xu Cheng in the imperial dining room, and he was accompanied by a child, who was his grandson and apprentice. ” Zhao Pu also nodded, "When I was a child, I saw you playing with Qige, her craft was learned from you."

Xu Ren smiled miserably and nodded.

Qige knew that the Queen Mother instructed the people in the imperial dining room to put less sugar in the emperor's snacks, but the emperor liked to eat sweet things, so he secretly made some pastries, saying that it was for the guards, but there was always a copy left for the emperor alone.

The Nine Princes always wander around at night, and when they are hungry, they go to the imperial dining room to find food, and Qige will also make a special one.

The prince likes to eat salty things, so she asked me how to make salty snacks" Xu Ren looked up at Zhao Zhen, "She is like my own sister, she died so inexplicably, I want to find out, and then avenge her." ” Zhao Zhen looked at Xu Ren's expression, and remembered what Qige asked him to go to Furong Garden before he died, and he missed it, inexplicably and very guilty.

Zhao Pu asked Xu Ren, "The ashes of Qige were replaced by you."

Xu Ren nodded, "Qige died but someone ordered cremation, I felt that something was wrong, I was too young back then, and my grandfather was old and took me back to my hometown."

I studied kung fu but was a civil official, just to sneak into the palace to investigate the real cause of Qige's death. ” "How do you know that Qige's death is strange," Zhao Zhen asked.

"On the day before Qige died, the whole person was absent-minded, I thought it was because the Ninth Prince was going to the border and didn't take him there, so she was unhappy."

Xu Ren continued, "I made some of her favorite foods to see her that day, trying to comfort her, but I saw her packing her things, and she was startled when I entered the door, as if she was afraid of something. ” Zhao Zhen and Zhao Pu glanced at each other and packed up their things "I originally thought she was crazy enough to quietly follow the Nine Princes to the border, so I wanted to persuade her a few words."

Xu Ren continued, "But she was incoherent, saying that she had to leave, that she couldn't stay in the palace any longer, and that there would be no good end or something."

Zhao Zhen was puzzled, "What won't end well?"

"I don't know, I didn't pay much attention at the time."

Xu Ren said, looked up at Zhao Pu and Zhao Zhen, and finally said helplessly, "With all due respect, I have spent more time with Qige than others since I was a child, I don't think Qige likes the Nine Princes to be exact, not that kind of like, he does like the emperor and the prince, but it is almost the same as liking me, it is a brother and sister relationship."

All those who are good to her, she will be good to them, that's all.

She has been following the Nine Princes, as if she wants to escape from the palace, and she always gives me the feeling that she is hiding secrets. ” "What about the ashes of Qige," Zhao Zhen asked.

"I'm putting it away."

Xu Ren replied.

Zhao Pu asked him to tell the shadow guards the address, and Purple Shadow and Ochre Shadow took someone to pick it up.

Bai Yutang and Zhanzhao listened to the whole process and understood Xu Ren's origin, but there were a few points that made the two of them more concerned.

Zhan Zhao asked, "You have good kung fu, why do you want to get mixed in with the civil officials to find out the truth?"

"Because only civil officials have the opportunity to enter the Spring Palace."

Xu Ren replied.

"Chuntang Pavilion" Zhao Zhen frowned slightly.

"What kind of place is the Spring Hall Pavilion" Zhan Zhao was curious.

Zhao Zhen said, "It is the royal library pavilion, which is different from the Longtu Pavilion, which contains the private collection of the emperors of the past dynasties, as well as historical materials."

"Isn't there a historical Longtu Pavilion too" Bai Yutang was puzzled, and said in his heart that there was something to hide in the history books.

Zhao Zhen smiled slightly, shook his head and sighed, sure enough, the people in the rivers and lakes are simpler.

Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes and winked at Bai Yutang, and the shark leaned into Bai Yutang's ear and sent him a message in Zhan Zhao's voice and tone, "Half of the ones in the Dragon Pavilion are made up, and the ones in the Spring Hall Pavilion are real." “ Bai Yutang was stunned, and then coughed lightly, but he also understood, maybe there was still the erased historical materials of the Eagle Dynasty in it.

"Chuntangge needs civil officials to repair books every year, and I just want to get in."

Xu Ren said, "Qige has always been very concerned about Chuntang Pavilion. ” "What does she care about?"

asked Zhao Pu.

"I heard her mention it, saying that she wanted to go into the Spring Hall Pavilion to have a look, and she was very curious about the historian who went in."

Xu Ren shook his head as he spoke, as if he had a headache, and reached out to rub his neck, "I seem to have forgotten something."

Everyone frowned, should it be, Xu Ren found something before he was controlled by Bing Wu.

"Hiss" Xu Ren suddenly frowned, "I have the impression that there is a man in white, the last thing I saw was a man in white, his face was not clear, his hair was about to his shoulders, gray" Zhan Zhao saw that Bai Yutang knew such a person Bai Yutang thought about it, Xiao Liangzi once mentioned that when he was practicing, he saw a white shadow floating by, this person was silent, and he appeared when Kaifeng Mansion was haunted, would it matter Although Bing Wu can be extremely cold with internal force, the spider spirit that controls the "ghost" will not only be extremely cold with internal force, but also some of the kung fu of Tianzun and Master Wusha, will it be that person "You are a protégé of Master Huang," Zhao Zhen asked, "Does he know your identity?"

Xu Ren shook his head, "Master Huang is a good person, I only became an official through him, and I try not to involve irrelevant people." ” "That Huang Fuzi is dead, do you know about this" Zhan Zhao asked suddenly.

"What" Xu Ren looked startled, and then seemed to think of something, holding his head, "Master Huang is dead." ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, it seemed that Huang Fuzi's death had stimulated Xu Ren a lot, even if he was in a state of amnesia, it was possible to remember some.

Sure enough, I saw Xu Ren raise his head suddenly, "Spring Pavilion" Everyone glanced at each other, and the clue was not in the Spring Hall Pavilion Zhao Zhen touched his chin, "Spring Pavilion" Thinking of this, Zhao Zhen stretched out his hand to Gonggong Chen, as if he wanted something.

Gonggong Chen comprehended, ran to the back of the screen, and after a while, he seemed to have opened some cabinet or something and brought a key.

The key is finely made, and Bai Yutang knows at a glance that it is something that opens the lock.

Zhao Zhen handed the key to Zhanzhao and said, "I occasionally go to the Chuntang Pavilion to read historical materials, but so far I haven't found anything unusual. ” Zhan Zhao took the key and looked at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang listened to the shark and then said in his ear, "It's over, the secret history of the palace knows too much about whether it will be destroyed in the future."

Bai Yutang couldn't cry or laugh, the shark is really easy to use, and the cat is simply handy.

Zhao Pu raised his eyebrows at the two, which meant that he turned the book and brought his grandson Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded, and when they left the study, they really ran into Gongsun who came in a hurry.

Gongsun had just checked Bingwu's injuries and dealt with the spider venom, when a shadow guard went to tell him that Qige's ashes had been found, so the busy Gongsun Cha didn't bother to drink saliva and came over.

Seeing Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, Gongsun hurriedly asked, "Where is the little fourth son?"

Zhan Zhao told him that the little fourth son was taken away by Yin Hou, and accompanied Tianzun, Yiyi, and Lu Ling'er to eat and watch the play together, and also said that Yin Hou wanted to borrow the little fourth son to raise him for a few days.

Gongsun naturally agreed, and when he saw Zhanzhao dragging him away, he thought that they would take him to examine the ashes, so he hurriedly followed, but unexpectedly arrived at the Chuntang Pavilion.

"Chuntangge, ahhhh Zhan Zhao laughed, "You haven't come in" "No, I asked Zhao Pu, but Zhao Pu said that this kind of place is still less entered, and the more you know, the sooner you will die."

Gongsun imitated Zhao Pu's usual tone of speech.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang told him about Xu Ren.

Mr.

Gongsun touched his chin, "Xu Ren doesn't know what's in the Chuntang Pavilion."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang nodded.

"It's okay," Gongsun rolled his arms and sleeves, "If you flip through each book, you can always find clues." ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang glanced at each other, and sure enough, the problem of reading books still requires Gongsun to come out.

Bai Yutang took out the key, and before inserting it into the lock, the fifth master frowned and looked at the keyhole.

Zhan Zhao came up and looked, "What's wrong?"

Gongsun also came up to watch.

Standing on tiptoe behind the shark and watching, Bai Yutang found that the shark's expression and demeanor have become more and more like Zhanzhao recently, and a little like the little fourth son, dumbfounded.

Bai Yutang pointed to a small gap in the keyhole and said, "Someone is trying to pick open this lock." ” Zhan Zhao was taken aback, "Has anyone ever slipped in?"

"I guess I didn't pry it open."

Bai Yutang took out the key, "This kind of lock is very difficult to open, in order to prevent theft, once someone picks the lock, the lock will be locked, and the person who unlocks the lock is not too experienced, so the mechanism inside the chain hole has not been touched and gave up."

Of course, it is also possible that someone took the key to open the lock, got drunk or had trembling hands, failed several times, and accidentally knocked off a piece of the keyhole. ” "Oh" Zhan Zhao and Gongsun both nodded, and the shark stood behind everyone and tilted his head.

The key in Bai Yutang's hand turned a few times, and then with a "click", the lock opened.

A smell of books came to my face.

The reaction of the three people was different, Zhanzhao was a sneeze in the sky, and Bai Yutang was a musty smell on one side of his face, and Gongsun was taking a deep breath of the smell of wow books Push the door in, the room is relatively dim, natural lighting, fireproof and anti-theft mouse design.

On a table at the door was a register with dates and names signed, and it seemed that there were not many people who had the right to enter the temple, except for some officials who were responsible for writing the history books.

Gongsun rushed into the bookshelf when he entered the door, there were more books in the attic than expected, and most of them were ancient books, as well as bamboo slips, Zhanzhao and Bai Yutang could see Gongsun's excited expression from afar.

Bai Yutang flipped through the roster on the table and beckoned to Zhan Zhao, who was looking around.

Zhan Zhao leaned over and saw Bai Yutang pointing to the name of the last official on the roster to enter the Spring Hall Pavilion.

Zhan Zhao frowned slightly, "It's Huang Fuzi's signature" Bai Yutang nodded, "Master Huang came to the Spring Hall Pavilion about three days before he died.

As he spoke, Bai Yutang turned a few more pages forward, "I also came here once ten days ago, and I came here so often half a month ago?"

"Could it be because of the questions in the spring exam?"

Gongsun asked while flipping through an ancient book.

"There won't be this kind of exam question in the spring exam, is Huang Fuzi a historian?"

asked Zhan Zhao.

"Well, he seems to be revising a set of history books, speaking of which, I have also seen his grandson, the Huang Shuye who passed away not long ago."

Gongsun said to himself, "I met him once when I was in Taixue, and he was assisting Huang Fuzi in revising this set of historical books and geographical chronicles, so he asked me some questions. ” "What exactly is he revising?"

asked Zhan Zhao.

"It's a very difficult set of buildings, and there are a lot of drawings, and I was about to go on patrol, so I didn't look at it very carefully."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang immediately went over, "Think about it carefully" Gongsun tilted his head and thought about it, then began to look for some related books, took them out and put them on the table.

"Ahem" Bai Yutang choked on the dust raised and coughed.

Zhan Zhao blinked, and then saw the shark run out to find a brush and broom, and began to clean the Spring Pavilion.

Gongsun raised his face, saw the brushes and brooms flying all over the sky, rubbed his eyes, and decided to continue reading.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang were flipping through the books on the table when they felt someone poke their shoulders.

Zhan Zhao looked up and saw that the shark was holding something in his hand and handed it to the two of them.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang took a look, and saw that what the shark was holding in his hand was a card.

This piece of paper seems to be a coarse paper made of tree bark, very hard, rubbed with red patterns around it, it is a red plum, and the beautiful willow body in the middle of the card is written with two words.

Zhan Zhao blinked, "Hey, I seem to have seen this brand." ” Bai Yutang also felt familiar.

Gongsun Zheng took out the book, saw it at a glance, and said, "Oh, this is the deck of the Yuelou Opera Garden." ” Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang look at Gongsun, "deck" "You two don't usually go to the theater to watch the play, this is the ticket for the Yuelou theater, every time it comes out one by one, there are Meilan, bamboo chrysanthemum, flowers, birds, insects and fish, in short, the pattern is different, collect four to watch the big drama at the end of the year, the little four don't know how much.

"Why is this card here?"

Zhan Zhao wondered.

The shark pointed to the ground, and saw that the corner of the table on the side was removed, which was moved when the shark swept the floor, looking at the traces of dust on the ground, this card about the size of Pai Gow was pressed under the corner of the table at that time.

"Who brought it in," Zhanzhao asked.

Bai Yutang shook the table and said, "The table is uneven, it seems to be used to pad the corners of the table." ” "This card should have been last month."

Gongsun said, "The fourth son likes to collect this ticket, the eldest girl and little daughter-in-law of Yuelou will help him collect it every time he is not in Kaifeng, last month came out with a set of red plums, this should be one of them, and then this month is a set of lotus." ” "My master, are they going to the Moon Tower to watch a play today?"

asked Bai Yutang.

Gongsun nodded.

"Those who can enter here are all elderly masters," Zhan Zhao was puzzled, "I heard that the plays in Yuelou are all performed for young people." ” "That's right," Gongsun nodded, "It's all watched by young people, especially the old pedants who can enter this spring hall are usually old-fashioned, and it is rare to see this kind of wind and snow moon or burlesque to say that the dignity of the teacher and the students who are too learned should laugh at them for being disrespectful to the old." ” "When will the Moon Tower start acting," Zhan Zhao asked.

Gongsun looked at the sky, "The show will start with the palm lamp, it's very lively." ” Zhan Zhao accepted the sign and patted Bai Yutang, "Let's hurry up and read the book, and go to the opera garden to find it after reading." ” Bai Yutang pointed to the Four Seas Hall in the distance, which meant the Four Seas Palace Zhan Zhao thought about it, and asked the guards to find Zhao Pu to accompany Gongsun to read the book, and pulled Bai Yutang by himself, "Simply, go now":
