came back? "Chen Cha waved to Song Qiyun and asked him to come in and sit down, "How's it going in the palace? Is it serious? "
"Don't worry, it's almost done." Song Qiyun shook his head, closed the door, washed his hands obediently, and then sat down at the table, "With the commander-in-chief watching over there, there shouldn't be any trouble for the time being. There’s no need for us.”
"What happened in the palace? How come I don't know?" Jin Miaomiao handed the peeled hazelnut kernels to Song Qiyun, "The rice in the dining room is being heated for you on the stove. If you are hungry, ask Mei Lin and the others to serve it to you. come over."
"I had a few snacks at Brother Huang's place, and I'm not hungry yet." Song Qiyun shook his head, "The small Buddhist hall in the courtyard of the Queen Mother's Palace collapsed."
"The small Buddhist hall?" Jin Miaomiao looked at Song Qiyun, then Shen Haolin and Shen Cha with a surprised look on his face, "Is it the small Buddhist hall we were talking about just now?"
"Yes!" Shen Cha nodded, "Early this morning, there was a loud noise in the Queen Mother's palace. Xiao Wu came back and said that the Buddhist hall had collapsed. Fortunately, the Buddhist hall was far away from the Queen Mother's palace, and the palace was not destroyed. It was affected. Brother Xiaojue sent someone to tell us that we don’t have to enter the palace and no one was hurt. Xiaoyun was worried about the Queen Mother, so she left with Xiaowu."
"Even though it was not affected, the queen mother still moved to the emperor's sister's palace temporarily under the persuasion of the emperor's brother, and then moved back when it was completely repaired."
"The Queen Mother is not scared, is she?" Jin Miaomiao was worried, "Do you need me to give you a prescription to soothe your nerves?"
"She wasn't scared." Song Qiyun shook his head gently, "In fact, if the emperor brother hadn't run to wake her up, she would still be asleep!"
"You didn't hear such a loud noise?"
"I feel a little bit, but I don't particularly care." Song Qiyun smiled helplessly, "I came back to talk about that Buddhist hall."
"Yes, this is what we want to ask." Shen Haolin nodded, "The Buddhist hall has always maintained the appearance of the previous one without much repair. So, how the old lady built it at that time, it should still be the same now. Looks like. "
"Brother Haolin is right. Everything was built by the old lady back then." Song Qiyun took a sip of hot tea. "However, unlike what we know, there is not only a secret passage behind the Buddhist niche. Thanks to this collapse, we Only then did I realize that there are secrets underneath the Buddhist hall."
"Cellar or secret room?" Shen Haolin raised an eyebrow, "What is she hiding under the Buddhist hall?"
"Brother Haolin, don't be so sharp, okay? I'm not interested in talking anymore!" Song Qiyun covered his face, "It's a cellar, and there are many boxes of yellow pear wood in it. I counted them roughly, no. Less than twenty.”
"What's inside?"
"We don't know yet." Song Qiyun shook his head gently. "The subsidence is very serious. We don't know exactly what is underneath, so we didn't rush people to lift the box up. This time we go to Beijing. , I didn’t have anyone in charge, so I had to rely on people from the Ministry of Works. Their craftsmen didn’t enter the palace until dawn, and when I came back, they were still cleaning up the surrounding rubble.”
"Any other discoveries?"
"The secret passage behind the Buddhist niche does not lead to the outside of the city as recorded in Prince Tong's memoirs. The end of the secret passage is actually a secret room, which also contains many yellow pear wood boxes. We have to carry out these boxes. It contains detailed investigation data on the civil and military officials of Emperor Jiaren and Emperor Chongde, as well as relatives of the emperor." Song Qiyun looked at the three people in front of him, "I flipped through it casually, and it was detailed from birth to At every stage of death, it’s clear who you know and what their backgrounds are.”
"You really want to listen to politics behind the curtain!" Jin Miaomiao frowned, "It's a pity that these materials are of no use, right?"
"It should be that a small part was used, and a large part was not used." Shen Haolin touched his chin, "Her younger brother once planned to force Emperor Jiaren out of the palace. Although he failed, Her little brother used many means to win the support of several important ministers at the time. These important ministers took the initiative to confess after the incident was defeated because they were forced by this young uncle, who had many things in his hands that they had made public. This A young uncle threatened them. If they didn't listen to him honestly, he would tell the world what he had in his hands and ruin their reputation. These important ministers have gone through a lot of hardships to get to where they are now, and there are many under them. Our students cannot take the risk of being cast aside by everyone in the world."
"So, where did Uncle Guo get this kind of confidential information?" Shen Cha sneered, "The trick of killing someone with a borrowed knife is very skillful and easy to use."
"But this little uncle only has ambition but not enough strength, and he shows off his power all day long. He feels that he is much more powerful than his nephew, and he can definitely be a good emperor." Shen Haolin stretched his waist, "I don't know. Did he consult with his sister before formulating his rebellion plan? If so, then he dug a sinkhole for himself."
"Yes, every move he makes can't escape the eyes of the old lady." Shen Cha raised his eyebrows slightly, "Everything is under the control of the old lady."
"That's true." Shen Haolin nodded in agreement, "It is said that Jingzhao Mansion received an anonymous report. Emperor Chongde and Prince Tong took one step in advance to completely control the situation. And the person who reported on Uncle Xiao Guo ..." He smiled slightly, showing a malicious smile, "Who do you think it is?"
