Chapter 331: Suddenly the West Wind is Cold
readx;?“ There is such a big thing in Chongshan Temple, why did it not report it until today! Zhao Yuan smashed his fist on the rosewood bookcase, which was deafening. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhao Yuan's personality has always been introverted, and it is rare to see him angry, let alone angry like thunder.
Seeing that the emperor was moved by the wrath of thunder, the ministers in the Xuande Hall knelt on the ground.
The ceremonial official in charge of the sacrificial ceremony said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, a group of gangsters who don't know the origin of the ceremony mixed into the Chongshan Temple with the people who watched the ceremony, and launched an attack inside. ”
Their accomplices, disguised as royal guards, surrounded the area inside the mountain gate. Due to the sudden rainstorm in the west mountain where Chongshan Temple is located yesterday, these people falsely passed on the princess's password, saying that because the rain was too rapid, all the officials who participated in the sacrificial ceremony inside stayed in the temple for one night. ”
"Since it was the eldest grandmother in the princess's mansion who spread the word, the forbidden army outside did not suspect it. It wasn't until the middle of the night last night that a bloodied guard suddenly escaped from inside, and the forbidden army knew that something had happened inside. ”
Zhao Yuan sneered: "What kind of villain can do it seamlessly? It's just that you people are derelict in their duties and get by, so there is such a big mistake. ”
When the ceremonial officer heard this, he trembled like chaff, and he didn't dare to speak again for a while, just kowtowed.
Zhao Yuan then asked: "Since the gangsters occupied the Chongshan Temple, what is their purpose?" Can you find out? ”
The leader of the forbidden army of the princess's mansion replied: "After Weichen led people to rush into Chongshan Temple, he found that it was empty. Some were killed by gangsters, while others fell into a deep ditch that cracked in the monastery floor. ”
Weichen led people to search the inside and outside of Chongshan Temple, but found no trace of the princess. Weichen speculated that there were only two possibilities, one was that the princess was kidnapped by the escaped gangsters. The second possibility is that the princess ...... Accidentally fell into a deep ditch that cracked in the ground. ”
Although Zhao Yuan was mentally prepared, he still felt a pang in his heart after hearing the leader of the forbidden army say this. He took a deep breath and said, "What about the presiding officer of Chongshan Temple? There was such a big thing in the temple, why couldn't he be seen? ”
"The Jingchen host has been dealing with various matters in the temple yesterday, but he disappeared after the accident. Since the location of the deep ditch is near the sacrificial platform, Weichen guessed that most of the Jingchen hosts also fell into this deep ditch. ”
"What deep ditch can make the dust stumble and fall? With his kung fu, even if he falls off a cliff, he may not be able to lose his life. Although Zhao Yuan said this, his expression became more and more anxious.
"Back to the emperor, after the on-site investigation of Weichen, I think that this big deep ditch is actually the legendary hidden dragon vein - the dark river Huaishui hidden deep underground." The Ministry of Works' squire took over and spoke.
"What hidden dragon vein, what Huaishui? Don't give me a dumb riddle, tell me the ins and outs quickly! There was a hint of impatience in Zhao Yuan's tone.
The Ministry of Works' waiter hurriedly said: "The reason why the Song Kingdom chose to build its capital in Luoyang a thousand years ago was because there was a jade belt mountain outside Luoyang City, which was undulating, like a sleeping dragon protecting Luoyang City. ”
"Luoshui, which passes through the city from Luoyang City, originates in the depths of Yudai Mountain. It is said that in the birthplace of Luoshui, a water source gave birth to two rivers, and one river flows through the ground, which is Luoshui, which is the Ming dragon vein. ”
"Another river goes into the ground and becomes an underground river, which is called the Hidden Dragon Vein, which is Huaishui. At that time, the emperor of the Song Kingdom saw that there was a Wolong guarding outside Luoyang City, there was Luoshui on the ground through the city, and there was living water flowing endlessly underground, so he decided that Luoyang City had excellent feng shui and the charm of the imperial capital, so he chose the capital here, and it has not changed until the destruction of the country. ”
"But this underground river is very mysterious, because its course changes frequently, and it is called a river with spiritual power."
"It is said that this water breaks through the ground every 400 years, but the process of breaking the ground is very short, and it usually flows out of the ground for two or three miles before flowing into the ground again."
"There are three records in the history books, 1,200 years ago, 800 years ago, 400 years ago, if yesterday's ditch was caused by Huaishui breaking the ground, it was the fourth time."
Zhao Yuan was a little disappreciative when he heard this: "It's just that the groundwater broke out of the ground, and this situation is not unprecedented, it's nothing more than that there is more rain this year, and the groundwater has increased a lot, and it just spreads out of the ground, what spiritual power is not spiritual power." ”
Hearing this, the squire of the Ministry of Works hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "The folk say that Huaishui has spiritual power, not only because it is elusive, but also because every time it breaks out of the ground, one of the heirs of the royal family at that time must be killed. ”
"So people say that as soon as the water comes out, the dragon son will fall ......"
"Nonsense!" Zhao Yuan pointed to the nose of the waiter of the Ministry of Works, and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time: "What kind of folk saying, if it weren't for you officials to help spread it, how could it have reached the point where everyone knows about it." You know it's a lie in the village, why do you still bring it to the court! ”
The waiter of the Ministry of Works looked innocent, and said in his heart: "Isn't this what you have to say?" Otherwise, I won't dare to say anything if you lend me ten guts. ”
Zhao Yuan was silent for a while, let out a sigh, and finally calmed down: "Xuanbo is my daughter, and she is the eldest princess of the Great Qi Kingdom, with the protection of my dragon power and the blessing of the national fortune of Great Qi, how can anything happen?" ”
"In my opinion, it is no coincidence that the swirling wave and the pure dust disappeared at the same time, it must be that the pure dust protects the vortex wave and hides somewhere. Therefore, you must send more manpower to inspect the inside and outside of Chongshan Temple three times. Even if you can't find the princess, you have to find the ornament or corner of the princess's clothes. The same is true for the search for clean dust. ”
"I don't believe that two big living people can disappear from this world without leaving a trace? Jingchen is extremely loyal to my Daqi, and with his skills, he has the ability to escape any kind of variables he encounters. And now he didn't even see any traces of his fight, which was not normal. ”
"I determined that the pure dust must be guarding the swirling waves, and they should still be in the temple. So no matter what, even if you turn the deep valley in the temple upside down, you will do your best to find these two people. ”
"Also, I have ordered a curfew for the whole city today, and the forbidden army must send soldiers who are meticulous and upright to strictly guard the four city gates to prevent gangsters from escaping from Luoyang City while they are in chaos."
"Jing Zhaoyin, I order you to send someone to publicize the incident that happened in Chongshan Temple yesterday to the world. You must say whatever you want, and don't add oil and vinegar. That would only cause unnecessary panic! There is no benefit in finding the princess of the swirling waves. ”
