1.82 Secrets of the Warehouse
Taicang is similar to the Dukang city warehouse built by Liu Bei on the top of the Dukang slope. It is also a large warehouse composed of many independent warehouses. It's just that it's far away from each other. They are connected to each other by bridge overlays.
Looking at the vertical and horizontal flying shelves above his head and the labyrinth-like warehouses around him, Liu couldn't help but sigh. If you want to identify this warehouse as not the other warehouse, not to mention Liu Bei, who has just arrived, even the little officials in Taicang need to take time and personally explore and measure in order to remember.
Walking through the towering barn buildings, the torch in his hand can only illuminate the lower half of the barn building. The top half fades into darkness. Therefore, it is impossible to identify the path. It was Cao Jie, the eunuch who led the way for him, who was familiar with the way. But I don't know what he used to find his bearings.
"Here we are." Cao Jie suddenly stopped. Rushing to a towering warehouse in front of him, he said, "This is it." ”
Liu Bei looked around by the light of the fire. Seeing that the warehouse in front of him was no different, he asked, "What's the difference between this warehouse?" ”
Cao Jie replied with a smile: "The prince and I will go up and have a look, and we will see." ”
Cao Chong, the captain of the Yue Cavalry, took a bronze finch from his arms and put it to his mouth to blow it. The low and melodious 'bird's chirping' then swirled around the barnhouse.
Soon. Listen to the sound of overhead gears. A wooden ladder similar to the Sky Ladder, one of the eight views of Lousang, slowly falls from the roof.
Seeing Liu Bei's surprised face, Cao Jie smiled and said, "There are also skilled craftsmen in the palace. ”
Liu Bei nodded: "What the boss said is extremely true. ”
Signaling Shi Lian, Jia Xu and others to be restless, and when the ladder landed, Liu Bei and Cao Jie walked into the ladder.
After a while, the ladder slowly rose and sent Liu Bei to the warehouse building more than ten zhang above the ground.
Out of the ladder, near the corridor. Cao Jie pointed to the heavy buildings that seemed to be suspended in mid-air and said with a smile: "When you climb the warehouse tower and look at it again, can you find the difference?" ”
Liu Bei nodded happily: "Looking up from the ground, I saw that the granary was not visible." Ascending the high-rise building, but only seeing the heavy building and not the warehouse. ”
In other words. The cylindrical granary, which is more than ten zhang high, is equivalent to a thick pillar. All warehouses are built on cylindrical silos. At this time, standing in the corridor in front of the building, it is like facing the abyss. Raise your eyes and look around, only to see a number of covered bridges flying frames, vertical and horizontal series of air pavilions. The cylindrical barns supporting the pavilion are all hidden in the misty darkness. Nowhere to be found.
No wonder Cao Jie said before, 'Taicang of the white sun belongs to Dasi Nong. And Taicang at night has another secret. ’
Presumably, in Taicang during the day, everyone is working on the ground. In Taicang at night, there was another group of people who boarded the cang.
"Your Excellency, Prince." The feminine voice came from behind.
Liu Bei turned around when he heard the sound, and saw a black-robed internal official, prostrate on the ground.
Cao Jie said with a smile: "This person is the 'palace craftsman' that the old slave said before." Court Order, Bi Lan. ”
Bi Lan is a native of Dongping County. Xiping was appointed as the court order, in charge of the palace people's books and sericulture women's workers. In the sixth year of Xiping (177 years), Bi Lan was ordered by the emperor to cast bronze people in four columns in Canglong, Xuanwu Que, and cast four bells, all of which were subject to 2,000 Hu, and the county (hanging) was in front of the Yutang and Yuntai Palace. Cast Tianlu shrimp toad again, spit water in the east of the bridge outside Pingmen, and turn the water into the palace.
"The old slave greets the prince." Bi Lan smiled flatteringly, and there seemed to be a flash of brilliance in her eyes.
Liu Bei then helped him up: "The internal official, please get up." ”
Bi Lan got up and said, "Shang Shuling called the old slave 'a skilled craftsman in the palace'. However, in front of the prince and marquis, the old slave was ashamed. There are many skilled craftsmen in the countryside, and many equipment are eye-opening...... Dare to ask the prince, can the Tianche superintendent make all the skills, can it be passed on to the old slave? ”
"What's the use of what the boss wants?" Liu Bei asked as he walked.
"The old slave wants to be a heavenly car thirsty black, spinning in the west of the bridge, sprinkling the north and south suburbs, and saving the cost of sprinkling the road for the people."
"What's so hard about that?" Liu Bei replied with a smile: "And spread the word to the hometown, copy a copy of the design scroll, and send it to the boss." ”
"Thank you, Prince."
The cloister is immediately connected to the cover. On the opposite side of the road is a towering high-rise building. Before leaving the corridor, a small yellow door groped forward and brought a black gauze robe and a gilded mask. Liu Bei then put on a burqa and wore a mask. Covers the physiognomy of the body.
The two officials also wore the same gilt masks. The two of them were already wearing black robes, so they didn't need to wear anything else.
This is clearly done to hide one's identity. Thinking back to the previous little yellow door groping forward, this fixed eyes. Sure enough, Xiao Huangmen was born blind.
Why is it so secretive?
Suspicious, he walked through the overhead override with the two big officials and arrived at the opposite building.
There is also a blind small yellow door waiting under the corridor.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, he groped his way to remove the mullioned door.
Taking off his boots and entering the room, through the lacquered wood screen, the light suddenly brightened.
The hall is as bright as day, and it is splendid. Extraordinarily gorgeous.
There are excellent singers singing and dancing in the hall. Many guests were already seated in front of the hall.
are all the same as Liu Bei. Wear a black robe and a mask. Hide your real identity.
was led to the box on the second floor by the two big officials and sat down by the window. When the door closed, Liu Bei asked, "Where is this?" ”
Cao Jie, who was sitting beside him, laughed in a low voice: "This is a place to have fun. ”
The voice did not fall, and the colorful clothes flew one after another. The dancing girl who took off her skirt was only wrapped in a layer of tulle and danced. Yan fat ring thin, exquisitely clear. With the unrestrained or enchanting dancing, the posture is fully displayed. The sleeves are bent and the waist is rotated, but they can always borrow their limbs or dancing postures to cover the key points just right. If you want to refuse and welcome, you want to say goodbye. It's so memorable that you can't stop.
Such a glamour wind must come from the court.
After thinking about it, Liu Bei suddenly woke up, could it be a royal brothel?!
Isn't it?
Located in Taicang in the city, the entry and exit are so secret. It is also a group of internal officials who are secretly operating and taking care of it. The person who led the way was the captain of the Northern Army. With such a personnel structure, if it is not the royal family, who else can it be?
Could it be ...... The Son of Heaven wants to go crazy with money. The forbidden Youling, dancing girls, and picking girls were secretly sent out of the palace to make a living. In addition to enjoying yourself, and earning some extra lumps?
No, I can't.
Liu Bei asked without giving up: "I don't know the dancing girl downstairs, where does it come from?" ”
Cao Jie replied with a smile: "As the prince thinks, they are all from the forbidden middle." ”
"Really?" Liu Bei sweated like rain for a while: "But I don't know, who did it?" ”
Cao Jie sighed: "This matter needs to start from the previous dynasty." ”
"The First Emperor?" Liu Bei was stunned.
"Definitely." Cao Jie's answer didn't make Liu Bei breathe a sigh of relief. Then he listened to his words and said: "The initiator is the former general Liang Ji." ”
"Liang Yi?" Liu Bei was stunned again. Recently, I have heard this name a lot.
"Does the prince know that there is a slave in Liangyi, named Qin Palace?"
Yes!
Liu Bei replied: "But the former Taicang Order Qin Palace? ”
Cao nodded: "It's this person." ”
Qin Palace, the general Liang Ji's slave. Young and has both Longyang and Wenxin. I hope to compete with my wife and grandson. (Liang) Ji Huan loves the prison slave Qin Palace, and the official goes to Taicang to order, and has to enter the (Sun) Shou Office. Shou see the palace, the emperor of the screen, entrusted with words, because of selfishness. Both inside and outside the palace are favored, the authority is shocked, and the history of the assassination and the two thousand stones are all resigned.
After thinking about it, Liu Bei woke up: "Could it be that this golden cave was built secretly when the Qin Palace was appointed as Taicang?" ”
"Yes, yes." The speaker, there is someone else.
