Volume 1 The Beginning of the Late Han Dynasty Chapter 70 Stealing the Jade Seal

Yan Qing waited for Dele and entered the tunnel, and instructed the brothers to move back to the stepping stone and stone mill, and Fang led the remaining brothers back to the back hall of the hotel to sit down.

Sister-in-law Gu was there early, and she and a few men beckoned the brothers to sit down and rest, and poured a large bowl of hot tea and soup cakes prepared for everyone.

Yan Qing took a thick bowl of hot tea, and before she had time to eat it, she asked hurriedly, "Is there a high-ranking official coming over tonight?" ”

Sister-in-law Gu shook her head and replied, "My partner and I haven't slept all night, guarding the door, but there is no one to see." Brother Yanqing, what's wrong with Mo Sha? ”

Yan Qing also frowned and said, "I don't know, I'd be careful." He turned to the soldiers of the special service battalion dressed as guards and said loudly, "After eating hot tea, all the brothers have gone down to the cave to rest, and they have been busy for a few days." ”

After that, while eating hot tea, he asked Gu's sister-in-law: "Did the four Qian brothers come back at that time?" ”

Sister-in-law Gu still shook her head and said, "No." ”

"Oh......" Yan Qing thought thoughtfully.

When it comes to moving in time, it means moving in time.

Earlier, Shi Qian, the deputy general of the Sounding Camp, mixed into Luoyang to assist, and they all changed into night clothes and followed Yan Qing and others to the Luoyang Palace.

The palace wall was extremely high, several feet long, and everyone pretended to patrol around the wall, and found a secluded and dark place on the north side. After a brief observation, he took a bundle of hemp rope from the back of a janissary. "Huhu" only flicked it, and it was already a battlement accurately. He looked at Yan Qing and raised his eyebrows, smiled, pulled the rope, jumped a few times, and was already on the city wall.

In a short time, seven or eight ropes were dropped on it. Yan Qing made a gesture, and everyone quickly climbed up to the city and entered the palace.

Wow! All the heroes of Liangshan and the soldiers of the special battalion couldn't help but sigh secretly.

This palace is really too majestic and huge. A palace platform is separated by dozens of steps, a pavilion is separated by dozens of steps, the corridor is like a belt, twists and turns, the eaves are high, such as a bird spreading its wings; The high and low large and small pavilions are gloomy and mysterious, making people unable to distinguish the north, south, west and east.

But it's obvious. The palace group in the south is brightly lit and full of figures; The palace complex to the north was dark and silent. The four of them waved at Yan Qing, then left Yan Qing and the other palace guards dressed as Qiao, and went all the way to the palace in the south.

Tonight is not very peaceful, the palace guards are five steps and one post, ten steps and one sentry, holding swords and guns, and their faces are solemn, as if they are facing a great enemy. In each palace room, the lights are also bright, the voices of people are noisy, the sobbing and screaming of the palace maids are endless, and the sound of moving objects and damage can be heard from time to time.

Shi Qian hid in the dark corner of the palace wall, looked at the palace guards patrolling by from time to time in front of him, and quietly said to Bai Sheng, Wang Dingliu, and Duan Jingzhu behind him: "Brothers, so it's better for the four of us to look for them separately." Brother Dingliu and Brother Jingzhu, you two go to find the Manna Palace in the imperial study; I and Brother Bai Sheng went to find the Ganquan Palace, the sleeping palace of the doll emperor. I thought that the treasure must be in these two places, but if I don't find it elsewhere, what if I don't find it elsewhere? ”

Duan Jingzhu whispered: "This empty kung fu, you are the master." Listen to you. ”

Shi Qian smiled and said, "Okay, that's it." Brother Bai Sheng, let's go. Taking advantage of the gap that the guards had walked, the time shifted and rolled, across the light, and disappeared into the next darkness. Later, Bai Sheng also hurriedly followed.

Although with the path provided by Xun You, the waiter of the Yellow Gate, this huge palace is also easy to find, and it is already the second half of the night when Ganquan Palace is found. Although it was the second half of the night, the Ganquan Palace was still brightly lit. Shi Qian looked left and right, went up, climbed the eaves, and followed the beams of the house, and was about to drill in.

"Hey, what about me......" Bai Sheng couldn't climb up, so he was so anxious that he shouted quietly, the two rat whiskers were cocked one by one, which was funny.

"Drag!" Shi Qian rolled his eyes, a high hanging golden hook, two legs tightly clamped the beam, hanging upside down, grabbed Bai Sheng with both hands, and helped make a personal ladder.

Bai Sheng borrowed half of the palace pillars and half of the time, and finally climbed to the eaves.

The two of them carefully climbed in along the thick beams of Ganquan Palace. Looking down from above, dozens of bronze cranes in the main hall below are holding oil lamps, illuminating the palace as if it were dawn.

Dozens of young palace maids scattered or sat or stood in the hall, bowing their heads and suppressing their voices "woo" weeping and sobbing; There were also a few eunuchs in the middle, who were also weeping.

After a while, a hoarse voice sounded: "Don't cry, it's all gone, you have to pack up tomorrow, go to sleep......" The voice was haggard and helpless, listening to an old eunuch speaking.

"Father, do I have to go to Chang'an......" A delicate woman said, this is what the palace maid asked.

"You have to go, if you don't go, who will take care of your majesty? If I don't go, how can I live in Luoyang? The eunuch said.

"Let's all sleep, go to sleep...... Your Majesty is sleeping peacefully, so don't make any noise. The eunuch continued.

After sobbing and talking for a long time, the palace maids and eunuchs below dispersed one after another, blew out most of the oil lamps, and went back to their huts to rest, leaving only two palace maids to stay.

After waiting for a long time, the two palace maids who stayed on duty couldn't stay up, and slept leaning on a few cases.

"Hey, brother, I'll go down here." Shi Qian said quietly to the back.

"I'll go down and help you find it." Bai Sheng didn't want to stay on the beam all the time, he had been nesting for a long time, and his limbs had already frozen.

"Okay!"

Shi Qian slipped off the beam of the house and rummaged around. After a while, Bai Sheng also climbed down, came over, and asked, "Can you find it?" ”

Shi Qian shook his head, but his eyes lit up, and he pointed to the dormitory inside.

The two of them gently removed a crack in the door and crept in.

This dormitory is not big, under the faint oil lamp, there is a huge golden silk nanmu bed and a huge golden silk nanmu cabinet only, although the thing is simple, it is beautifully carved, inlaid with gold and silver, and it is very valuable.

On the bed, a child is sleeping peacefully with his eyes closed. This is naturally Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, and this poor doll can only be free in her sleep.

Bai Sheng moved his mouth and raised his eyebrows, signaling the gorgeous cabinet.

Shi Qian willed, touched the past, and after a few twists, the golden lock was opened. When I opened the cabinet, there were several compartments in the cabinet, and there were not many items, including boxes, bamboo slips, and books, all of which were not gold, silver, and jewelry. Bai Sheng doesn't know much about the time, but it can be imagined that they are all extremely valuable.

"Got it all?" Bai Sheng asked quietly and reached in.

Shi Qian grabbed Bai Sheng's hand and whispered, "I've taken it all, how are we going?" It's important to find the jade seal. ”

Suddenly, he found a yellow-wrapped object in the middle of the cabinet. Shi Qian's eyes lit up, and he picked up the package with both hands, which was quite heavy.

He removed the yellow brocade on the outside, revealing a box made of golden silk nanmu inside. The box is about 20 centimeters high and about 30 centimeters wide.

Bai Sheng was overjoyed in his heart, and whispered in Shi Qian's ear: "Isn't this it?" ”

Shi Qian rolled his eyes, disgusted with Bai Sheng's words. He gently opened the wooden box, only to see a seal embedded in the box. Shi Qian was greatly surprised, and he carefully grabbed the seal and observed it left and right.

I saw that this seal was carved from a whole piece of green jade, its square circle was four inches, and the five dragons were handed over to New York, and the front was engraved with the eight seal characters of "Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang".

Shi Qian was very excited, clenched his fists vigorously and waved his hand, and carefully put the jade seal back into the box, and wrapped it in yellow thick satin again.

"Isn't that it?" Bai Sheng was illiterate, and when he saw Shi Qian's expression, he was also nervous and excited.

Shi Qian nodded, put the yellow thick package on his back, and gestured to Bai Sheng before touching it out.

Bai Sheng looked at Shi Qian and felt out of the dormitory, and then turned his head to look at the rest of the objects on the cabinet. As soon as he grabbed a box, he was about to walk out.

"Bang", the wooden box made a soft collision sound against the cabinet, not big, but it was so crisp in the quiet night.

"Your Majesty!" The palace maid who stayed in the main hall outside the dormitory woke up and shouted in a daze.

"Ahh Then the palace maid screamed loudly, cutting through the sky in the empty and silent Ganquan Palace.

"Someone! There are assassins! The palace maid shouted loudly, and they clearly saw a figure rushing up to the beam of the room, and they clearly saw a figure still holding the palace pillar and crawling in a panic.

Suddenly, there were shouts and cheers outside the Ganquan Palace, and the sound of chaotic footsteps gathered from all directions.

Bai Sheng heard the footsteps outside the palace getting closer and closer, but instead his heart calmed down, and he whispered upwards: "I can't get out." You go. ”

He simply slid off the palace pillar, jumped in three or two steps in front of the screaming palace maid, stared at the big eyes and scolded: "Let you ruin my good deeds." He took out the dagger at his waist, grabbed the bodies of the two palace maids, and killed both of them.

"Boom", the door of Ganquan Palace opened, and a large number of characters poured in, including eunuchs, palace maids, and more palace guards.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! ......" exclaimed the eunuchs and palace maids.

When they saw a masked man stabbing the body of the palace maid with a knife, they screamed in fright.

The guards surrounded him with guns, and one of the generals, dressed as a general, shouted, "Who is it? Where is Your Majesty? ”

Bai Sheng heard the call, suddenly came to his senses, and he hurriedly turned around and ran towards the palace of Emperor Liu Xie.

"Where to go!" The general shouted, and the spear in his hand shot out in a hurry.

With a "poof", the spear slammed into Bai Sheng's back and went straight out of his chest. Bai Sheng looked at the head of the gun on his chest in disbelief, spat blood, screamed, and fell forward.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty......" The eunuchs rushed to the dormitory.

Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty is a child, and he cried sadly for a long time in the middle of the night, and he was sleeping deeply, but he was woken up by the chaotic sound outside the dormitory, and he was also sleepy-eyed, and he didn't know how.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's all right!" The eunuchs and palace ladies asked in unison.

"It's okay! What's the matter? Liu Xie was confused.
