Chapter 27 is confusing
Chapter 27 is confusing
Yun Lang looked at the huge hole in front of him with a lot of emotion!
Fuli Palace still dug out a secret passage in the end.
This dark passage is all made of bluestone, wide enough to run a carriage, standing on the pit and looking in, the black and dark can not see the end.
A servant beside Cao Xiang said to Yun Lang suspiciously: "How does the prince explain? ”
Without waiting for Yun Lang to answer, Xu Yan was kicked into the secret passage by Cao Xiang.
Yun Lang squatted down and broke off a piece of black dirt from the gap and sighed, "Damn Xiang Yu, he really burned Afang Palace." ”
Cao Xiang ignored the miserable cries of the officials who fell into the tunnel, and also broke a piece of black soil and pondered it in his hand.
"Let's check it, before this Fuli Palace was built, which palace in the former Qin was it."
When the official heard this, he immediately went to find the answer.
Cao Xiang said to the officials in the tunnel: "Go in and have a look, and then come back to report to me when you get to the end." ”
The officer who fell into the pit and broke his head and bled heededly still wanted to defend himself, but when he looked up and saw Cao Xiang's gloomy eyes, he temporarily changed his words: "Please give me a lowly torch and a long sword!" ”
Cao Xiang Nunu mouthed, and an entourage threw the long sword and torch to the strange identity of the official.
Seeing Xu Yan walk into the secret passage step by step, Yun Lang said to Cao Xiang: "Report to Your Majesty first." ”
Cao Xiang shook his head and said, "People have known it for a long time, maybe earlier than we knew." ”
"It's just business, don't complain."
"I don't think this tunnel should exist independently, with the spirit of the first emperor, since the tunnel has been built, maybe all the palaces of the Abang Palace will be connected with the tunnel.
If this is really the case, just the existence of such a tunnel network, Shanglin Yuan should be a strategic place that can be attacked and defended. ”
Yun Lang sighed and said: "The defeat of the former Qin was too rapid, and the huge national strength was not exerted to one-twelve, and the king of Han entered Chang'an. ”
Cao Xiang said with a smile: "My father once said that most of the reason why the former Qin was defeated was that the people of the Qin State were tired.
After fighting for hundreds of years, after finally dominating the world, the people's hearts were slack, and there was no longer the courage of the Qin army in the past.
Therefore, born in sorrow, die in peace.
In any case, we have to make good use of this tunnel, and it is best to form a complete defense circle relying on the tunnel.
Otherwise, Shanglin Yuan, which has a flat terrain, will suffer too much in defense. ”
Yun Lang nodded, and said to Cao Xiang again: "Do you go to Jianzhang Palace, or do I go to Jianzhang Palace?" ”
"I'll go, my uncle and my aunt have been at odds recently, the people in Jianzhang Palace can't even see the smiling faces, my uncle is angry when he sees you, it's better for me to go."
"Okay, I'm just going to follow the map to find out the secret of Shanglin Yuan's tunnel."
"I have already reported the disappearance of the official who went down before, so don't let him appear, lest I be embarrassed."
"Okay."
The map of Afang Palace was brought, in fact, it was a painting, Yun Lang looked at it for a long time, except for knowing that this Fuli Palace was called Caiqing Palace before, there was no sign of a secret passage at all.
Come to think of it, something like a dark passage shouldn't have been marked on such a floor plan in the first place.
Yun Lang put down the scroll and sighed, he was very worried that this secret passage would lead directly to the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, even if it did not lead to the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, even if it led to the location of the Terracotta Warriors, it would cause an uproar in the Han Dynasty.
Yun Lang came to the front of the cave again, and the officials who had gone in before had not yet come out, and Yun Lang estimated that it was unlikely that he would come out.
The dusty secret passage that has just been dug up, the air is not circulating, and all kinds of situations will happen inside, so it is strange to walk in so rashly and live.
These officials were all recruited by Cao Xiang himself, and the sudden appearance of such a subordinate who disagreed with the master was an obvious betrayal for Cao Xiang.
No matter where he comes from or whose assignment he comes from, it is impossible to live if he offends Cao Xiang.
The direction of the dark passage is not consistent with the direction where the Mausoleum of the First Emperor is located, which is also the reason why Yun Lang has been able to calm down until now.
"Bring in the bellows, prepare to light the fire and blow the smoke, and look for the tunnel exit."
Yun Lang gave a military order in a low voice, and Sun Dalu immediately sent soldiers to continue to expand the tunnel opening, and at the same time, some soldiers moved the huge bellows on the blacksmith's furnace in the army to prepare to blow wind into the tunnel.
The smoke slowly drifted into the tunnel, and the smoke moved quickly, indicating that there was an exit to the tunnel.
The soldiers standing on Diao Dou looked around, and as soon as they noticed smoke on the ground, they would immediately point out the direction.
Sure enough, an hour later, smoke rose due east.
Yun Lang personally led people to find the place where the smoke was coming from, which was already four miles away from Fuli Palace.
Seeing this exit, Yun Lang was finally relieved, which showed that these tunnels were not as grand as he and Cao Xiang imagined, and the secret passages of each palace view basically existed independently.
Yun Lang also saw traces of manipulation at the exit, and also found a piece of scorched wood and fragments of clothes not far from the tunnel.
All this shows that the official escaped.
After removing the rocks at the exit site, he heard the sound of whirring wind coming from the tunnel due to the high terrain here and the low terrain of Fuli Palace.
"What's in there?"
Sui Yue's duck voice sounded behind Yun Lang.
"I don't know, I didn't go in to see, the only official who explored the tunnel actually absconded without permission, and this person must be arrested."
Yun Lang glanced at Sui Yue, and behind him stood an almost naked man, his face was black, and he only had a short shirt around his waist that he didn't know where he came from.
Sui Yue waved his hand and said, "That person is already dead, and he was killed by a certain family." In front of the Marquis of Pingyang, he also asked the Marquis to cover up one or two. ”
Yun Lang said: "Do you think I will help you deceive Cao Xiang?" ”
Sui Yue smiled: "No, I just asked, Junhou, Fulicheng will be one of His Majesty's stations when he was amusement in Shanglin Yuan in the future, but a tunnel suddenly appeared, I don't know how Junhou will explain to His Majesty." ”
Yun Lang ignored Sui Yue, who had nothing to say, and said to the Xu official who was blackened by the torches: "If you want to survive, you can explore all the tunnels here, and maybe you can make Pingyang Hou forgive you." ”
This sentence made Sui Yue's face extremely embarrassed.
Yun Lang said: "The highest level of surveillance is to let the surveillance object know that he is being watched without knowing who is spying on him.
This is the only way to make him think deeply before doing anything.
If you can't reach this level, you're just killing yourself. ”
Sui Yue didn't speak again, looked at the tunnel with a gloomy face, and then left the Fuli Palace with the official.
"So Fuli Palace really discovered the tunnel?" Liu Che raised his head and glanced at Cao Xiang, and continued to look at the folds in his hand.
"Your Majesty, exactly!"
"You just said the tunnels are old?"
"Exactly, Yun Lang and Weichen guessed that it should be the tunnel dug by the former Qin when he built the palace, and it should be a convenient road dug for the Qin Emperor."
Liu Che put down the chapter in his hand, patted the table and said: "This is embarrassing, since there are tunnels in the Fuli Palace, doesn't it mean that there are tunnels under the Jianzhang Palace under my buttocks?" ”
Cao Xiang nodded again and again: "It's very likely." ”
Liu Che looked at Cao Xiang's anxious appearance and smiled, pointed to the square bricks under his feet and said, "There is a secret passage under my feet. ”
Cao Xiang couldn't tell whether the emperor was ridiculing him or whether there was really a tunnel under his feet, and said quickly: "You won't care about this." ”
Liu Che stood up, looked at the scenery outside the window and shook his head, "Old things are always bad. ”
Cao Xiang said: "Then you should get a new one." ”
Liu Che turned around and looked at Cao Xiang playfully and said, "It's not easy to get a new one, I haven't even figured out the old one." ”
Cao Xiang saw that the emperor had set his eyes on the table full of twists and turns, so he smiled and said: "The past has happened, and it is not worth pursuing." ”
"It's not worth chasing, but it's worth knowing and remembering."
The emperor's words became more and more difficult to understand, and Cao Xiang frowned, not knowing how to deal with it.
Liu Che smiled, patted Cao Xiang's shoulder and said: "You are good, you still know how to have some face, and now some people, for a little money, really don't even care about the face that their ancestors have retained." ”
Cao Xiang looked at his uncle ignorantly.
Liu Che waved his hand and said, "Go back to Fuli City, guard the door, when it is useful to you." ”
"So, what about the tunnels?"
"Oh, since you have found out, let's check it well, so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy."
Cao Xiang walked into the palace with a stomach full of anger, but when he came out, he was confused, and he even forgot to complain to his uncle about being watched.
