A moment later, outside the palace of Daming Palace, four eunuchs came in with an iron box five feet long and five feet wide.

When the box was lowered, the eyes of everyone in the temple were cast.

Empress Hu pointed to the box with no gaps on the six sides, only a slanted downward groove in the middle:

"Imperial Doctor Sun, please see, this is the relic of Zhou Taizu that this palace just told you."

Imperial Physician Sun glanced forward, "How do I open it?" ”

Empress Hu pointed to the groove and said, "Imperial Doctor, this box has a hidden mechanism, and if you want to open it, you can only start with those raised tadpole texts in the chute." ”

Li Lang was standing behind Empress Hu at this time.

He looked over and noticed that there was a tadpole script here, which was obviously in six rows of Hanyu pinyin:

【fuqiangminzhu】

【wenminghexie】

【ziyoupingdeng】

【gongzhengfazhi】

【aiguojingye】

【chengxinyoushan】

Judging from the above text, this time-traveling predecessor is also a person who yearns for harmony from the heart.

Mrs. Sun smoothed her beard and asked, "For hundreds of years, no one has been able to understand the words on it?" ”

Empress Hu shook her head and sighed, "No, not one." ”

Li Lang wanted to tell them that he knew, but why did he know? If these people ask about it, they have to show their stuff.

The people around are whispering.

"Look at those words, what technique was used to engrave them?"

"I don't know, if I knew, I would definitely learn."

"It's probably an ancient skill, but it's now lost."

"Tadpole text, who can understand this."

"Silence!"

Nangong Rong whispered.

Imperial Physician Sun touched his beard for a while and reminded Empress Hu: "Your Majesty's pulse is weak, and the time given to us is running out. ”

Empress Hu frowned and said, "At this moment, even if you can gather people from all over the world to read, I'm afraid no one will be able to decipher the words on it." ”

"Aunt, my nephew learned some tadpole literature in his early years, maybe he can give it a try."

At this time, Hu Zhe, who was standing next to Princess Guo'er, spoke.

Empress Hu glanced at him unexpectedly, "Zhe'er actually understands tadpole writing?" ”

Hu Zhe smiled and said, "Yes." ”

When Princess Guo'er saw this scene, she jumped to her feet and smiled: "Brother Zhe is really knowledgeable. ”

"Imperial sister-in-law, my brother is also willing to give it a try."

At this moment, Li Lang also arched his hand and expressed his attitude to Queen Hu, "The younger brother also saw this tadpole just now, I think I saw it from a book before, at this time my imperial brother is in danger, in order to save his life, but also to clear up the grievances of the younger brother, I hope that the imperial sister-in-law can give the younger brother a chance." ”

Before Queen Hu could answer, Hu Zhe on the side said coldly: "King Xiang, I thought that after you lost your memory, you changed your personality, but I don't want to be the same as before, you always like to fight with me, but you should know that you have never won against me, not before, and not now." ”

Steaming your eggs, I just want to save my own life.

Li Lang raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Xuyang Hou wants to be bad, I just want to save the imperial brother." ”

Empress Hu interrupted at this time: "Okay, I limited you to a stick of incense and solved the secret of this tadpole text, otherwise it will ......."

As he spoke, he paused and sighed, "...... I can only resign myself to fate. ”

"Yes."

Hu Zhe was eager to try and took a step forward, he had already made a lot of preparations for this box.

Zhou Taizu's relics are not clear to others, but he, a person who often comes and goes to the palace, knows very well, and also knows what the tadpole text on it looks like and how to crack it.

Why did he want to know, because he knew the emperor's illness very well, and if his aunt planned to save the emperor, she would definitely not be able to do without this box.

Why could he know? Because he had secretly asked people to dig up the tombs of many officials above the third rank of the Zhou Dynasty, and obtained a well-preserved codex from the tomb of an official who was the prime minister of Zhou Taizu.

The codex records the specific operation steps of Zhou Taizu to open this iron box back then.

Therefore, he firmly believes that this competition, his side will win.

He also knows the personality of Xiangwang Li Yanxin, even if he Li Yanxin has really read the tadpole text, it is not harmful to him, because the box is not a tadpole text at all, but a text created by Zhou Taizu himself.

Hmph, fight with me, it's still far away.

Empress Hu and Imperial Physician Sun gave way to the place, and Hu Zhe stepped forward, his excitement beyond words.

Reaching out and touching the box, feeling the cold touch it brought to him, he was so nervous that he couldn't breathe.

Once I open the box, I can successfully perform in front of my aunt and attract her attention, and I have saved the emperor, which is the hero of the Great Jin Kingdom, and the position of the squire of the criminal department will also be naturally owned by me.

Father and son are in the same court, and the reputation of one family and two servants is finally about to be achieved.

Hu Zhe took a deep breath, gathered his thoughts, and then looked at the words on the chute, stretched out two fingers, and pressed the first letter in the upper right corner.

Except for Li Lang, who was watching the play with a relieved face, everyone's breathing tightened.

Click!

I pressed the first time, but there was no response.

It is written in the Codex that it should be pressed from top to bottom, from right to left.

Therefore, Hu Zhe didn't panic at all, and continued:

Click, click, click......

Finally, all the letters were pressed by him.

"Auntie, please wait a moment, this box will be opened in a while."

Hu Zhe swore to Queen Hu.

Empress Hu seemed to be waiting a little impatiently, "How much is a moment?" ”

"Now is it!"

Hu Zhe looked at the box expectantly.

The eyes of the crowd followed.

However, a minute passed, and the box did not move.

Two minutes passed, and the box still didn't move.

Three minutes passed, and the box still hadn't moved.

Hu Zhe's smile froze on his face, and four or five minutes passed, but the box was still lying quietly.

There was an embarrassment in the whole palace, and the time for a stick of incense was about to come.

Empress Hu looked at Hu Zhe and said, "This is what you told the palace...... Moment? ”

"Auntie, I, shouldn't be, could it be that I pressed the wrong ......" Hu Zhe frowned and thought.

He was about to press it again, but was stopped by Empress Hu, "Enough, Your Majesty can't wait for your moment." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Li Lang, "King Xiang, it's your turn." ”

"No, auntie, give your nephew another chance."

Hu Zhe refused to admit defeat, he couldn't believe that the things dug up from other people's graves would be fake, he didn't believe it.

It has never been confirmed, it has not been examined, and who knows if the owner of the tomb is also mistaken.

"Okay."

When Li Lang heard Queen Hu's charming voice, his heart couldn't help but tremble, and he was inexplicably excited.

He rubbed his hands, competition is everywhere, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, there are fights, but my opponent is obviously a little weaker, just now I thought he was going to come up with some killer features, but I didn't expect the other party to be just a soy sauce player.

"Wait!"

Just when Li Lang was about to pretend to be forced in front of everyone, Hu Zhe, who was unwilling to fail, suddenly shouted slowly.

Empress Hu looked at him coldly and said, "Xuyang Hou, what's wrong?" ”

Hu Zhe explained: "This box is Zhou Taizu's belonging, and no one can guarantee what will happen if you press it wrong again." ”

And you were going to press it again?

Li Lang glanced at his opponent with disdain on his face and said, "I will definitely not be wrong." ”

Hu Zhe said: "What guarantee do you have? ”

Li Lang said: "I can make a military order, if I fail, I don't want this prince, be a commoner." ”

I'm really looking for death.

Hu Zhe was happy in his heart, waiting for Li Lang's words, he said: "King Xiang, this is what you said." ”

Li Lang said: "I said it, there is no evidence, I can still set up a written evidence." ”

Hu Zhe shook his head and said, "You don't need to make a note, so many eyes are watching, forgive you for not daring to play in front of the queen mother and everyone." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Li Lang strangely, what is His Royal Highness King Xiang doing, so sure that he can open the box?

Hu Xian'er and Nangong Rong both gave Li Lang a worried look.

And Queen Hu on the side saw through Li Lang's mind at a glance, King Xiang was retreating and wanting to jump out of her palm.

Li Lang said to Hu Zhe at this time: "If I successfully open the box, what should Xuyang Hou do?" ”

"I, hmph, I'll do whatever you want." Hu Zhe didn't think about it, and responded mockingly.

Li Lang said: "I don't want to be Xuyang Hou, as long as I successfully open the box, you must call me a ......"

Seeing that Li Lang was halfway through his words, there was no voice, Hu Zhe couldn't help but itch unbearably, "What are you called?" ”

"Call me Daddy."

"Haha, good, good, interesting, just call it, if I don't call it, I'm a son of a bitch." Hu Zhe agreed without thinking about it.

In the Jin Kingdom, Dad is almost the same as Daddy.

And calling Li Lang's father, doesn't he recognize his opponent as his father? If it spreads, Hu Zhe's reputation is afraid that it will suffer a lot of damage.

Empress Hu glanced at Li Lang and Hu Zhe in a complicated manner.

However, at this moment, Li Lang skillfully pressed the letters on the chute from left to right and from top to bottom:

【Prosperity and Democracy】

【Civilization and Harmony】

[Freedom and Equality]

【Fair Rule of Law】

[Patriotism and dedication]

【Integrity and Friendliness】

When he finished pressing, the box, which had not been opened for hundreds of years, miraculously moved.

Mommy-

Boom,

How can it be......

When everyone saw this scene, they all gasped, and his fingers were terrifying.

Empress Hu and Imperial Physician Sun were stunned.

Hu Xian'er and Nangong Rong were taken aback.

And Hu Zhe's body was trembling, "Impossible, impossible, for hundreds of years, how many smart people, how many wise people, how many peerless geniuses, how many boxes that people who are more powerful than you, who don't know dozens of times or hundreds of times, can't open them, how can they be opened by you, and you are still so skilled, why, why?" Why are you so skilled? How can you be so skilled! ”

Hu Zhe was roaring impotently.

But Li Lang replied lightly: "Xuyang Hou, call Dad ......"
