Beautiful jade can be made in one moment, and it will help the king for thousands of years. ---------Liao Shengzong Yelu Longxu's "Poetry of the Imperial Seal"
Chen Long analyzed that the oblique exit of the Beigong tunnel should be around the brothel area in Luoyang, and it would be covered by the courtyard to facilitate the entry and exit of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty in the brothel area.
Visiting the brothel became the best cover. Niu Fu did not become suspicious and did not send anyone to follow the whereabouts of "Yan Baihu". No matter how chaotic the world is and how displaced the people are, the brothel remains prosperous. Scholars, ministers, and dignitaries all strive to be elegant and elegant, spending money like water.
There were several deep alleys radiating around the brothel. Chen Long sent all the team members out to look for uninhabited medium-sized courtyards. He and Lu Chang also walked along a deep alley to the shore of Luoshui. Most of the cabins were dark and there were no lights. Suddenly, from a large ship docked by Luoshui River, several night figures flew out and quickly dispersed along the river bank, as if they were on some mission.
Chen Long was curious, so he and Lu Chang sneaked into the ship to search, and accidentally found the letters written by Ma Teng of Xiliang to several Beijing officials. Although Ma Teng nominally joined forces with Bian Zhang, Han Sui and others in Liangzhou, he was actually coerced by Han Sui's rebels. After a long struggle, Ma Teng finally led a force loyal to him and entered the territory of the Qiang alone. , joined forces with some friendly Qiang people, and broke away from Han Sui's control.
Chen Long got this important information and knew that Han Sui's rebels and Beigong Boyu's Qiang army were not monolithic, and that he just needed the army to defend Chang'an and attack Dong Zhuo's cavalry in Luoyang. I began to think about how to use Ma Teng's troops, but unfortunately I didn't have a think tank around me. This matter still needs to be considered in the long term.
After Chen Long reunited with the special team members, Zhang Bai actually discovered what seemed to be the emperor's "entertainment place." After several searches, no trace of the tunnel entrance or exit was found. Chen Long was unwilling to give in and began to measure the inside and outside. Finally, he found that the size of the inside and outside of the toilet was obviously different by nearly one and a half steps. There must be a wall behind the toilet pit. wall.
Chen Long and other team members searched excitedly along the wall. Finally, Chen Long tried to push with both palms, and sure enough, the entire wall miraculously moved back several feet, revealing a tunnel entrance covered with floor tiles on the ground.
Everyone cheered, Chen Long stretched out his foot and stepped on the floor tile, and the floor tile slowly fell down, revealing the dark underground passage. Seeing that Chen Long had discovered the passage, he didn't want to wait any longer, and immediately made arrangements: "Lv Chang and I will take action now, and the rest of us will be on guard here. Remember, never light the lights!"
Jumping in from the tunnel entrance, the floor tiles slowly rose up. After a while, I heard the sound of the wall sliding outside. It was probably that the wall between the walls had returned to its original state. Chen Long admired in his heart, and flashed a fire fold. He didn't have time to look at the layout of the mechanism under the floor tiles, and started Qinggong with Lu Chang, and ran wildly along the tunnel. After a while, I came to the corner of the tunnel under the Qufei Palace. I couldn't help but think of the last time I and Zhang Ning hid from the Han Ling Emperor here. Then I thought of Ma Yuanyi's death, and I felt sad in my heart.
Smoothly following the tunnel to the underground of Beigong, Chen Long emerged from the bed of the former Han Ling Emperor's palace with ease. After the death of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, this place was abandoned. When the new emperor ascended the throne, he naturally had a new palace, so it was a little safer.
Chen Long took off his outer robe, revealing his night clothes, and asked Lu Chang to guard the entrance of the tunnel to help him in case of trouble, ensuring that the tunnel was open and escaping would not be difficult. It is estimated that Dong Zhuo left all the guards with high martial arts skills to himself, and the guards assigned to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty did not have many masters, so Chen Long was not afraid of the guards in the North Palace. The only obstacle is the huge Beigong. Where will this jade seal be placed?
The most likely place is, of course, the palace of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. As long as you find the house where the guards focus on guarding, you can find the location of the palace; if it is not in the palace, it is likely to be in the imperial study room where the emperor studied on weekdays. Chen Long vaguely remembered some of the layout of the North Palace. The imperial study should not be far from the palace, and it would not be too difficult to find.
Chen Long looked out from the Han Ling Emperor's palace and saw no one around and no patrols passing by. He thought that the palace was really poorly guarded now. Just as he was about to open the door and step out to find the palace of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, he suddenly thought that in the official history, Sun Jian found the imperial seal on the corpse of a palace maid in the well. When He Jin was killed, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao killed the eunuchs and killed countless innocent people. Who knew that the jade seal passed down to the country at that time was not buried in the well with a palace maid?
Thinking of this, Chen Long wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he had the knowledge of time travel. Otherwise, even if he turned the palace upside down, he still wouldn't be able to find the jade seal. But which well did the palace maid cast it into?
First of all, it cannot be a well that is still in use, otherwise the people in the palace would have discovered that the water was smelly, and then discovered the body of the palace maid. Secondly, the abandoned well should be a dry well, otherwise why would it be out of use?
Chen Long quickly checked the light brain in his mind. The novel describes the process of Sun Jian getting the jade seal as follows: Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang and moved the capital to Chang'an. After the princes were able to divide their settlements in Luoyang, Sun Jian built three palaces on the foundation of the Imperial Ancestral Temple in the city. , to worship the gods of all the princes. When the sacrifice was in progress, a five-color light appeared in a well in the south of the palace. Sun Jian ordered the soldiers to go down to the well to salvage, and they found the body of a woman dressed as a palace maid. There was a brocade bag under her neck, which was locked with a gold lock. The small vermilion box contained the imperial seal, and Sun Jian was so lucky to get the imperial seal.
Chen Long was overjoyed after seeing it. It seemed that the well should be right next to the Ancestral Temple. This Ancestral Temple was very important. It was the ancestral temple where emperors worshiped their ancestors. According to the weekly system, it was generally located on the left side of the front palace. It was a standard feature of the imperial palace at that time. The location is very conspicuous, and it should be easy for Chen Long to find the main hall of the Ancestral Temple.
After hesitating in his mind for a long time, Chen Long still felt that it was most likely that the jade seal had already reached the well, and decided to look for the dry well next to the Ancestral Temple first. Quietly opening the door of Han Ling Emperor's palace, Chen Long observed that there was no one around, quickly walked around in the darkness, and entered the area of the front palace that should be the Ancestral Temple. There is usually no one working in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, so it is even quieter. There are no guards at all. Chen Long can rest assured to find the target dry well.
Chen Long grabbed a handful of gravel in the grass and threw a stone into any well passing by to explore the way. When he threw it into a well on the right side behind the Ancestral Temple Hall, the stone fell, and this time there was no echo from the water.
Chen Long was overjoyed. There was indeed a dry well here. He couldn't help but feel more confident. He didn't care about the filth. He leaned on the wall of the well, took out his dagger, and slowly dropped it to the bottom of the well. He felt that there was a faint rotten smell in the air in the well, and his heart became more and more... Increased confidence. There was a bit of mud at the bottom of the well. Chen Long turned around and saw a rotting corpse without looking carefully. The blue-green palace maid's dress on the body was not completely rotten.
The fire in Chen Long's hand directly illuminated the neck of the rotten corpse. Sure enough, there was a brocade bag. Chen Long thought to himself, God will not deceive me. He took off the brocade bag and jumped up. He came out of the deep well and took a big breath of fresh air. The kit was also slightly rotten. When Chen Long tore it open and looked at it, he saw a small vermilion box with a small gold lock hanging on it. What was it if it wasn't the packaging box of the national seal?
Chen Long was overjoyed. He didn't expect that it would take no effort at all, and his judgment was correct. With this jade seal, it is possible for Yuan Shu's troops to cooperate with his own actions, secretly enter Luoyang, and then cooperate with the external actions of the alliance to defeat Dong Zhuo. By then, Dong Zhuo's destruction will be in sight.
Chen Long put away the small scarlet box, quickly returned to Han Ling Emperor's palace, gave Lu Chang a sign that everything went well, and returned to the tunnel again.
Chen and Long returned the same way and came to the tunnel exit under the courtyard near the brothel. There is a spring-like iron support under the floor tiles, which can pull the floor tiles up and down. With a small pull ring, Chen Long gently pulled it, and heard the sound of the wall outside the floor tiles sliding, and then the floor tiles sank. Chen Long and others quickly stepped on the floor tiles and walked out. The floor tiles slowly closed again, and then the wall slid out again, completely covering the floor tiles. It seemed that this was just a luxury toilet.
Chen Long looked at the night and saw that it was probably not midnight yet, so he ordered everyone to withdraw secretly and gather near Hongxiu Garden. The Hongxiu Garden was still brightly lit with candles and prostitutes filling the door. In the midst of this bustle, Chen Long and others returned to the Yan Mansion in bright clothes and angry horses. Niu Fu was still loyally guarding the door. Upon seeing this, he greeted with a smile: "Why is General White Tiger back so early?"
'Yan Baihu' laughed and said: "General Niu, it's just a cannonball, and a lot of time is wasted. I'm not like some people who listen to songs and drink wine. I just like to go straight to the goal! Don't you know Those chicks are so wonderful, it's a pity that you are loyal to your duty, otherwise you would be the most popular among the girls."
Men like to be told that they are strong in that aspect, and General Niu is indeed good in that aspect. Chen Long's tall hat is just right. Niu Fu smiled happily and said: "General Baihu and I have exactly the same temperament. They like to have fun. No matter what kind of foreplay or afterplay, it's better to just get in!" After saying that, the two of them had the same odor and burst into laughter. Chen Long felt bah bah bah in his heart. He cursed: "How dirty! Who is like you!"
Entering the mansion chatting and laughing, Niu Fu did not doubt that he was there, and went to find a penthouse to sleep and rest. He thought that he would definitely suggest to the grand master tomorrow that Yan Baihu spent all day drinking, drinking, and dreaming. He didn't look like a spy at all, so why spend all day Instead of staring at him, let yourself stare at people like Cai Yong and Yang Xun. Thinking of the debauchery, I suddenly remembered that I didn't seem to smell the smell of alcohol on General Baihu and the others just now. Is it true that they didn't even drink the wine and came back after playing with women just like they said?
It has to be said that Niu Fu really found a flaw. Chen Long and others did not drink at all, which obviously went against the common sense of visiting a brothel. Fortunately, Niu Fu was not Li Ru. After thinking about it, he put down the idea and found a suitable reason for himself to go to find Duke Zhou.
How did Chen Long know that he had just experienced an identity crisis because he didn't drink and exposed his flaws? Full of joy, he returned to the bedroom, took out the small scarlet box, broke the golden lock, and revealed a warm and beautiful jade inside. Chen Long held this ancient Heshi jade in his hand. He saw that the jade was white and transparent, surrounded by watermarks, and its tentacles were slightly warm, as if it could blend into one with people. It is about four inches in diameter and has five dragons intersecting in the Upper New District. The front is engraved with the eight-character small seal script "Ordered by Heaven to live forever and live forever". The ring is engraved with the pattern of two dragons playing with beads. There are three pointed wavy lines at the bottom, which represent the endless sea. There are also larger inscriptions on the front. The thin inner line and the thicker outer line are double seals, and a small missing corner is inlaid with a yellow scarf, which illustrates the historical event of Wang Mang usurping the Han Dynasty.
Chen Long was in an excited mood. The small red candle beside him shone brightly on the imperial seal that was ordered by the sky. As the saying goes, "Two dragons appear in the sea when the sun shines", this is the absolute symbol of the supreme imperial power. I don't know if I have ever drank it. How much blood of soldiers and people has brought so much slaughter to this beautiful and rich land of the Central Plains!
