He took a look at Yao Yao's face, but it was still pale and bloodless. He couldn't help but worry: "Why is there still no improvement? Have you used the daily ginseng soup on time?"
"I've used it, and I'm drinking it on time." Although Yao Yao's impression of Han Changmu has changed, he is still quite uncomfortable with his sudden concern. He pushed his hand away, nodded repeatedly and said, "I feel so humbled. No need to worry, adults."
Han Changmu knew that Yao Yao was wary of him, so he let go of his hand and said calmly: "The sage has decreed that he will go to Yuhua Mountain to escape the summer heat in three days."
Yao Yao was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously: "Don't we always go in May in previous years? Why did we go so early this year?"
Han Changmu shook his head: "I don't know. The sage's decree also said that the envoys of Tubo and Tuyuhun and the first-level and second-level Jinshi should accompany him."
Yao Yao concentrated for a moment: "In previous years, when you go to Yuhua Mountain for summer vacation, you will inevitably go hunting. This year, there will definitely be fewer. In addition, the envoys from Tibet and Tuyuhun have all gone, so the hunting will definitely be more dangerous than in previous years."
Han Changmu nodded: "That's right, the saint has decreed that the Internal Security Department and the Bei Ya Forbidden Army jointly guard Yuhua Mountain, the Yulin Army and the Longwu Army are responsible for the safety of the saint, and the Shenwu Army, Shence Army and Shenwei Army are responsible for guarding Yuhua Mountain. Huashan, while the Internal Security Department supervises all officials."
Hearing this, Yao Yao clicked his tongue. After passing the Annan County Prince's Mansion, Emperor Yong'an's trust in Han Changmu seemed to be increasing day by day. He didn't know how he deceived Emperor Yong'an.
She didn't think carefully about what Han Changmu meant when he said these words to her, and just nodded: "Your Majesty, the Commander-in-Chief, has a heavy responsibility, and it's going to be hard. Don't worry, Mr. Commander-in-Chief, since I am living in the mansion, I will naturally be responsible for the safety of the mansion to the end. , so that you don’t have to worry about your future.”
Seeing that Yao Yao didn't understand what he meant, Han Changmu sighed helplessly: "You don't have to worry about things in the house. What I mean is that I want you to go to Yuhua Mountain with me."
"Ah," Yao Yao was stunned and said in surprise: "In previous years, only officials of the sixth rank and above could go to Yuhua Mountain. This year, can all seventh-rank officials go? Plus their families, how can Yuhua Mountain be lived in? ?"
"..." Han Changmu was speechless, and after a while he said: "The supervisory officials have important responsibilities, and some clues are extremely difficult to find. I want you to go to Yuhua Mountain together to help."
Yao Yao pursed his lips and said dryly: "This is a humble position. I'm injured. I'm afraid I can't help you, sir."
Han Changmu glanced at Yao Yao and saw the reluctance on her face. He became more determined to let her go with him. He refused her refusal and said decisively: "As long as your eyes are not injured, it's settled. We will set off in three days. If you have anything, ask your servants to help you pack it."
After saying that, he didn't let Yao Yao speak, opened the door and walked out.
Yao Yao looked at Han Changmu's back and sighed, seeing that there was no turning around, he couldn't help but sigh.
Every time Emperor Yong'an went to Yuhua Mountain to escape the summer, it was not peaceful. Something would always happen. After all, so many people lived together and went out together. If they couldn't protect everyone, they would have conflicts with others, or they might have a grudge against others. , by using secret tactics during hunting, it is a pool of muddy water anyway.
She has always been shy, but this time, she may not be able to escape.
When it comes, be prepared for it. Since you can't avoid it, make more thorough preparations.
She leaned against the big pillow and thought about it carefully. Then she moved the kang table closer to her, picked up her pen and started writing quickly.
It was slowly getting dark, and people leaving the city hurried out of the city gate before the curfew. A group of men in short-dressed clothes walked out of the city gate in twos and threes, and gathered outside the Shili Pavilion. They lowered their heads and discussed for a few words before pretending again. Not knowing, he got on his horse and galloped away to the north.
The luggage in the Han Mansion was piled up in the front yard. Han Changmu walked and looked at it and sighed: "Jinyu, the way you pack it, it will take seventeen or eighty carts to carry it."
Jin Yu glanced at the camphor wood boxes placed everywhere and felt that they were a bit too much. He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, why don't you go and have a rest earlier? I can just keep it simple and streamlined. Keep it safe so that I can go out lightly."
Han Changmu didn't quite believe the word "simplification" Jin Yu said. He glanced at him and said with a smile, "Okay, I want to see how streamlined you can be."
Jin Yu smiled bitterly, and ordered people to open the packed camphor wood boxes one by one, and re-sifted everything. However, he put down this one and picked up that one. He felt that everything was useful and could not be streamlined.
Han Changmu couldn't stand it anymore, shook his head, and walked away with his hands behind his back with a wry smile.
He entered the study, locked the door with his backhand, lit an extra lamp and placed it on the desk. He turned around and took out a square box from the nanmu bookshelf behind him. There was a stack of thin paper in the box, and through the paper You can see from the back that the ink marks on the paper are densely packed.
He took out several pages of thin paper and placed them one by one on the desk. After aligning them, there was just one piece of paper missing in the middle.
He then pulled out a scroll from the large white pastel vat next to him. He gently opened one end of the lower shaft and took out a thin roll of paper.
He unfolded the paper very carefully.
What was densely drawn on the paper was the map of the place where Emperor Ming's treasures were hidden, which was previously drawn in the Prince's Mansion of Annan County.
This map is the last and most important of all maps.
He glanced at the map in his hand carefully, then looked at the four maps on the desk, placed the map in his hand in the middle, and filled in the blank space.
He got these five maps from different places. Although some of them were re-traced, they were drawn as accurately as possible according to the size of the original maps. Now they are put back together, except for the paper. In addition to the different sizes, the unfinished parts of each picture can be connected to each other.
Then a complete map was formed.
Han Changmu narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the entire map. His eyes darkened and he pursed his lips, but still showed an uncontrollable smile.
Although there is not a single word on this complete map, it only depicts the mountains and rivers with pen, ink and color. The middle one is obviously a treasure trove, with various mechanisms fully drawn, but this mechanism is very strange. , not the usual ones.
But even so, he could see where the treasure was hidden at a glance.
For more than ten years, he led troops to guard Jiannan Road, and traveled through the mountains and rivers of Jiannan Road, the strange mountains and rivers, and the criss-crossing roads. They have all been deeply engraved in his heart, and he has become a hero. A walking map of the deputy.
Even though there were no characters on the map in front of him, he still recognized this place at a glance.
It's just that this place is extremely vast and the terrain is complex. He has only been there once. He just wandered around outside and did not go deep into it. If he wants to find the real place where Emperor Ming's treasure is hidden, he has to take this map and go there in person. Just go to this place and inspect it carefully.
Han Changmu stared at the map for a long time, as if he wanted to engrav this map deeply in his mind.
After looking at it for a while, he felt that the originally clearly legible map had become a mess. He immediately gave up the idea of engraving the map in his mind and felt that it would be safest to trace it again.
So, he put several pictures into the square box, locked it, and took the square box to the guest room.
Yao Yao was the easiest to do when it came to tracing.
The night was deep, the palace was strictly forbidden, most of the candles were extinguished, it was dark everywhere, and no one in the palace was walking around at will.
Emperor Yong'an looked at a huge map on the desk with a gloomy expression.
The huge map was also pieced together from several incomplete maps, except that a piece of the map in the lower left corner was still missing, which looked very eye-catching.
Emperor Yong'an gently clasped the desk with a worried look on his face. Although the missing corner of the map was not the most important part, after it was missing, it was impossible to see where the entrance to this treasure land was.
Fortunately, from the existing maps, it can be seen that the treasure location of Emperor Ming's treasure is located on Jiannan Road, but it is not easy to see where exactly it is on Jiannan Road.
After all, there are no place names marked on this map. If you want to know exactly where this map is, you have to find someone who is very familiar with Jiannan Road.
Emperor Yong'an's heart sank, thinking of Han Changmu, his face gradually became extremely gloomy.
Part of this map was found by Han Changmu, and part was found by others. Emperor Yong'an believed that with Han Changmu's eyesight, he could tell from the incomplete map that the treasure trove was located on Jiannan Road, but he concealed this fact. thing.
Emperor Yong'an clenched his hands tightly. I don't know how Han Changmu persuaded the Princess of Annan County. Sure enough, she handed over the four beautiful pictures and revealed all the secrets in them. Only then did she get the most important picture in the middle. The appearance of the map exposed most of the hidden treasures of Emperor Ming's treasures.
His eyes suddenly turned cold. He knew very well how stubborn Princess Annan was and how difficult it was to deal with her. He had been dealing with her for twenty years. He had tried every means and scheming, tortured and comforted her in every possible way, and used both kindness and power, but nothing happened. It made her spit out what exactly Han Changmu had exchanged with her to make her hand over the map willingly.
Emperor Yong'an was a suspicious person. He suddenly got something he had been asking for for many years. He was so happy that he forgot to think about it carefully. Now that he saw that the treasure was hidden in Jiannan Road, he suddenly became suspicious. Suspicious, suspected that Han Changmu might be colluding with Princess Annan County and setting a trap for him.
He slowly sat up straight, his face so gloomy that he could drop water. Annan County Prince's Mansion and Han Mansion would go with him to escape the summer heat. It seemed that this summer vacation was a good time to test it out.
Jiannan Road is mountainous and densely forested, and the roads are narrow and winding. The biggest difficulty in exploring the road in Jiannan Road is that you cannot tell the direction and cannot see far away.
Thinking of this, Emperor Yong'an glanced down at the huge map again, called Gao Fuguo in, and whispered: "Go and get the newly-made Si Nanyi from the weapons supervisor and the telescope that was paid tribute by the Dashi Kingdom."
Gao Fuguo responded yes.
Just after midnight, an urgent banging on the door resounded throughout the winding alley, startling the originally dark house to suddenly light up with lights. The night porter opened a crack in the door and faced the suddenly brightly lit room. Looking around the alley.
Several men dressed as government officials ran through the winding alley and headed straight for Han Mansion, but the door of Han Mansion was smashed deafeningly.
"Open the door, open the door quickly, we from the Jingzhao Mansion are here to see the Chief Secretary on the orders of Lord Shao Yin."
"Open the door, open the door quickly!"
The neighbors all knew who lived in the wealthy and aristocratic Han Mansion. They were startled by the movement. When they heard the words of the person who hit the person, they knew that this matter was not a big deal. There must be a big case going on.
These people in the darkness wanted to peek, but were afraid of being caught by the Han family and getting into trouble. They were not willing to close the door and just listen but not see, so they closed the door one after another, leaving a narrow crack in the door. Looking through the crack in the door, although the view is not wide enough, it is better than seeing clearly.
After a violent banging on the door, the door of Han Mansion finally opened a crack. The concierge looked out with sleepy eyes: "Who is it?"
He Dengglou hurriedly took out his belt card and said urgently but politely: "Please let me know, brother, I am the head catcher of Jingzhao Mansion, He Dengglou. In the name of Mr. Shaoyin, I ask to see Mr. Secretary," He leaned closer to the crack of the door and lowered his voice: "There is a big case."
The concierge's mind was filled with fear. He opened the door without any hesitation and welcomed the group of people into the flower hall of the mansion: "Please come in, gentlemen. I will go and pass the message. Please wait a moment, gentlemen."
Guests rarely come to the Han Mansion, and there are only four beds in the flower hall to entertain guests. This time, eight or nine government servants came at once, and there were not enough chairs to sit on.
The concierge hurriedly moved a few tea tables. It is not suitable to drink tea in the middle of the night. If you drink too much, you will easily fall asleep. Although you are still busy at this hour and there is basically no possibility of sleeping, the concierge is still considerate. Everyone was served a glass of cooked water.
The news of the visitor from Jingzhao Mansion was circulated at all levels. As soon as Han Changmu fell asleep, he quickly got up and while getting dressed, he told Jin Yu: "Let Mrs. Liu call Yao Yao."
Jin Yu curled her lips: "Your Majesty, you are not sleeping in the middle of the night, and Yao Canjun is still sleeping."
"What did you say?" Han Changmu raised his eyebrows.
"My subordinate said, go and call him now!" Jin Yu disappeared in a flash.
He climbed up the stairs and felt like he was sitting on pins and needles. He drank two glasses of boiled water in succession. He was a little overwhelmed after drinking. Finally he couldn't sit still anymore. He looked around and looked at the flower hall. In the flower hall, except for four huts and four small tables, In addition, there were not even the slightest decorations common in wealthy people's homes. Although he had not been to several wealthy mansions, he had never seen such simple ones.
The sound of footsteps came, interrupting He Denglu's inspection. He saw Han Changmu and Yao Yao walking into the flower hall one after another. He quickly stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, Sir, join the army."
The yamen servants behind also saluted.
Han Changmu said calmly: "No need to salute, please sit down first." He looked at He Denglou: "What's the matter? What happened?"
He Denglou glanced at Yao Yao with a troubled look on his face: "It was during the day when the prince of the Marquis of Anning found Mr. Shaoyin and said that the prince's wife had been missing for a day and a night. He sent people to look around, but he couldn't find her and he didn't dare to In a big way, for fear of ruining the reputation of the Crown Prince's wife, he asked Mr. Shao Yin to help with the search privately. Mr. Shao Yin agreed. However, half an hour ago, the Chang'an County Government Office came to Jingzhao Mansion to report the case. Xiupingfang Fang Zheng said that Fang Ding found the corpse in a deserted house. It looked very similar to the corpse found in Wannian County before. Master Shaoyin felt that something big was going to happen, so he took the people with him first. I rushed over, and ordered me to come and ask the Chief Secretary and Yao Canjun to come over as well."
Han Changmu and Yao Yao looked at each other, feeling ominous in their hearts.
The wife of the Marquis of Yong'an disappeared in the front, and the woman in the back died in the same way as Princess Rong before her. This was a group of crazy gangsters who had no scruples.
Han Changmu's face darkened and his expression was cold: "Let's go, lead the way."
The group of people got on their horses and galloped away in the night. The moon shadow in the streets was crushed to pieces by the unexpected sound of horse hooves.
The people who were hiding in the crack of the door and watching the excitement outside saw this scene, their hearts were high and curious. This matter was really big. Even the Minister of the Internal Security Department was pulled out from under the quilt. .
The sound of horse hooves echoed all the way through the winding alley, and the lights in the houses along the street suddenly went out, followed closely by the sound of doors closing at a deliberately low tone.
Yao Yao sneered: "It's so late at night, Lao He, you've hurt a lot of people, and you've got twenty-five rats in their hearts."
He Denglou tightened the reins and followed closely behind Yao Yao. Han Changmu was a little further away, and he became bolder. He said: "Mouse is brave enough to watch the fun. Twenty-five mice are not enough." Who should they look for?"
"What does it mean to have twenty-five rats in your heart?" Han Changmu suddenly turned around and asked He Dengglou.
He Denglou was unprepared and was frightened by Han Changmu. He almost fell off the galloping horse.
Han Changmu touched the tip of his nose. He was no longer surprised by this situation. He turned to Yao Yao and asked, "Am I so scary?"
Yao Yao shook his head seriously and said seriously: "Old He, that's not because he's afraid, that's because he's ashamed of himself. How can he not be as beautiful as you, sir?"
Han Changmu raised his eyebrows with a look of disbelief.
Yao Yao said again: "The so-called twenty-five mice are a hundred claws scratching the heart. Sir, do you think it is this number?"
After a moment of silence, Han Changmu suddenly laughed, spurred his horse on, whipped his horse, and galloped forward.
He Denglou followed Yao Yao and breathed a sigh of relief. He was so impressed that he almost fell to the ground: "Boss Yao, your ability to tell lies with your eyes open is getting better and better."
Yao Yao raised his eyebrows and said proudly: "That's natural. I want to be trapped like Magistrate Zheng. If I don't practice this skill well, how can I work in Jingzhao Mansion for the rest of my life."
In the vast darkness, the streets and alleys were deserted. Meng Suigai always held the waistband of the Department of Internal Health high in his hand. On the way, he met Wu Hou who was patrolling the streets. Without saying anything, the moonlight fell on the sign, and the cold light shone on it. The three words "Internal Health Department" on the waist badge are particularly clearly outlined.
The Wu Hous immediately seemed as if they had not seen Han Changmu and his party, and did not even have the intention to inquire.
The north gate of Xiupingfang opened, and two halos of yellow light floated at the door, flickering and illuminating a square blue brick on the ground.
When everyone walked in, they saw that the two haloes were two lanterns, and the candles were swaying about to be extinguished by the wind.
The two people holding the lanterns leaned against the door with their hands and feet shrinking, covering their mouths and yawning.
He Dengglou took the lead in urging his horse over and asked in a low voice: "Is this Fang Zheng from Xiupingfang? This is He Dengglou from Jingzhao Mansion."
One of the men immediately straightened up and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, this is Qiao Yanda, the principal of Xiupingfangfang. Lord Shaoyin has already rushed over. I have ordered you to wait here." He stood on tiptoes and looked. He Dengglou was followed by many people. Originally, there was a murder in the workshop, which made him very worried. Now he was even more frightened. He swallowed his saliva and said, "Everyone, gentlemen, I'm here." Lead the way."
Xiupingfang can be regarded as an extremely remote area in Chang'an City. It is even worse than Jinchangfang where the princess died.
There are backstreets everywhere in the village. Most of the winding alleys are narrow and small. They are not even paved with bluestones. One foot is deep and the other is shallow. The mud can soak the leather boots.
The mud was too thick and there were no lights to illuminate it, making it difficult for the horses to move forward. Everyone had to dismount and lead the horses to follow Qiao Yanda through the streets.
The streets became more and more remote and difficult to walk, and everyone slowed down. Taking advantage of this time, Han Changmu started to inquire in advance: "Qiao Fangzheng, who found the body in such a remote place? "
Qiao Yanda didn't know who Han Changmu was, so he didn't dare to answer casually, and looked at He Denglu cautiously.
He Denggou was so frightened that his calves were spinning, and he nodded repeatedly: "This is the envoy of the Internal Security Department. You, if you have anything to say, just say it and tell the truth!"
Qiao Yanda has never met any high-ranking officials, but he also knows that the Internal Guards Department is the palace of the king of hell, and the chief envoy is the leader of the king of hell and cannot be offended.
He was almost scared to tears, and said tremblingly: "Yes, it's a watchman. He passed by the deserted house and saw many wild cats and dogs running in and out, and there was a strong smell of blood. So I went in and took a look, and I was so scared that I paralyzed on the ground. I looked for the street patrolman and reported to the villain, the villain."
Han Changmu raised his head and looked at the sky. There were swirling clouds like ink, the moon was looming, and the night was getting darker. "What time was that?"
Qiao Yanda said without thinking: "Yes, it was the second quarter of Haizheng. Yes, it was the second quarter of Haizheng when I found the body. It was just the end of Haizheng when I reported it to the villain."
Han Changmu nodded and asked as he walked: "How long has that house been deserted? Who was the former owner?"
Qiao Yanda smiled bitterly and said: "Sir, I have only been working as the mayor for two years. I really don't know who the previous owner of this house was. In addition, there are too many ownerless abandoned houses in the square. It's about to collapse, I really don't notice it on weekdays."
Han Changmu also knows that this is the truth. It is normal for some deserted houses in a remote area like Xiupingfang. People have good fortunes and misfortune. Some people have made a fortune and bought big houses elsewhere, and the houses in Xiupingfang cannot be sold well. Price, let it go to waste. In some cases, something happened to the family, and everyone in the family died, leaving the house in ruins.
