Chapter 8: The Secret Room
……
Of course, going to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to buy people's hearts and minds with money is definitely a stupid idea for now. Or find a way to get some money from elsewhere. waved his hand to make a small fortune, and was excited after Xiao Duozi went out. Again, he began to grope on the dragon bed. Many people actually have the habit of hiding their secrets under the mattress, or money, passbooks, certain books and periodicals, etc. Zhao Zhe had already done a rough search before, but he found nothing. Now, I want to try my luck again. When he was crawling on the bed, he heard Xiao Duozi shouting outside at the top of his voice: "The queen has arrived~"
After a while, I saw the queen walking alone in graceful and elegant steps. As usual, the servant girl was left outside. When he just wanted to salute, he was stopped by Zhao Zhe and said, "Excuse me, the queen come and help me find it together." ”
"What is the emperor looking for?" Since this period of contact, perhaps Zhao Zhe, who has lost his soul, is not so hateful, and between his words, he is a little cute. Unconsciously, my attitude towards him was much better.
"Looking for my private money, I really can't remember where I put it." Zhao Zhe began to try to move the dragon bed, but the thing was big and heavy, and he tried his best, but it didn't move at all.
"Money?" The queen frowned and said strangely: "What do you want money for, Your Majesty?" However, he still came forward and helped in the search. It is estimated that the queen does not have a bad habit of rummaging through cabinets at home. The action is silly and clumsy, and I don't know where to start. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and said: "Your Majesty, I remember that the royal family is in the bedroom of the warm pavilion of the Qianqing Palace, and there is another secret room. Only members of the royal family can open it. Why don't we look for that? ”
"Where did you hear about this?" Zhao Zhe asked a little strangely.
"Miscellaneous Records of Wild History." The queen suddenly said with a little excitement: "I heard that the previous emperors of the past dynasties would put their most treasured things in the secret room to leave a treasure for future generations. ”
Zhao Zhe was also excited when he heard it, the treasure trove of the royal family. How many treasures are there? However, it is better to be cautious in this kind of thing. He opened his throat and shouted to the outside of the curtain: "Xiao Duozi, I want to do something with the queen, and you guys will get away from me." If you eavesdrop on a sentence and a half, I will punish you with two hundred times. ”
"The slave and maid will retire, and they will never dare to eavesdrop on half a sentence." As soon as Xiao Duozi heard that he was going to be fined, he hurriedly led the two maids out in a hurry. I finally got a reward of 100 times, but don't post a hundred times by yourself. A little eunuch like him still has a strong desire for money.
"Emperor, Emperor." The queen's perfect jade face was slightly crimson, and she lowered her head in shame and said, "You, how can you say that?" This, how can this make the concubine hold her head up in the future? ”
"Afraid of what? I am Qian, Queen, you are Kun. We are in harmony with the principles of heaven. Although he has not been the emperor for a long time, he has gradually adapted to this identity, and his face was not thin before. The mood has gone up, and in the face of a woman with such a noble temperament and a thousand appearances as the queen, she can start flirting without any psychological obstacles. Especially looking at her blushing face with shame, Zhao Zhe's heart was even darker.
But at this time, it is not the time to indulge in women. It's better to find some money and treasure first, and then come back after cultivating a force that truly belongs to you. Otherwise, even if you sleep at night, you will not be so sure-footed. drove away the personal eunuch and maidservant, and in the entire Dongnuan Pavilion, there were only two left, him and the queen. Then he let go of his hands and feet, searched everywhere and said: "After the matter of the demon girl of the concubine, I am not particularly relieved of the people around me, so I drove them out." The queen should hurry up and help me find it. ”
The queen also knew Zhao Zhe's difficulties, so she also helped him turn over the cabinets together. After flipping straight for a while, the queen covered her mouth and shouted happily: "Your Majesty, come and take a look." ”
Zhao Zhe hurriedly ran forward when he heard this, but saw that the queen had inadvertently pressed a mechanism on the dresser. The whole dresser slowly moved. An entrance to the underground is revealed. Because there are many night pearls inlaid around this passage, the entire passage that should be dark is floating in millilight. I can barely see the road clearly.
Zhao Zhe hesitated slightly, but after taking a deep breath, he slowly stepped into it, although this move was a bit risky. But wealth itself is a risky one. If this treasure is real, it will be very helpful for him to quickly build up his self-preservation strength. It can also allow him to quickly sit in the position of emperor and become a real emperor who can get drunk on the knees of a beauty and wake up to the power of the world.
What was slightly touching was that the queen did not hesitate at all, and followed him into this secret room passage together. You know, this is the Emperor's Treasure Chamber. How can there be no dangerous mechanisms and the like? Maybe the emperors of all dynasties know how to move. But for Zhao Zhe, he didn't know anything about this place.
Groping around the walls, carefully looking at every part of the passage, especially at your feet. Stop every step and react as soon as possible if there is any disturbance. I didn't walk more than ten meters, and I reached the bottom of the passage smoothly and safely. It was a bronze round gate, extremely delicate and ingenious, surrounded by a circle around the perimeter, and the hideous copper head was intimidating.
I don't know when, Zhao Zhe's hand has tightly held the queen's little hand. Tender and slightly cool, pinched extremely comfortable. It's just that this is not the time to think about such things. He looked closely, at the bronze door. After pondering, I came up with two conjectures of the original designer. According to the empress, it was the founding emperor who wanted each generation of emperors to accumulate some treasures for their children and grandchildren. Therefore, when designing, the bloodline must be taken into account. Of course, it is not known how such high-tech work was achieved at that time. Ancient people, in fact, had a very deep study in many aspects. It's just that the Han people have a bad habit of cherishing themselves with brooms. Research has invented some good things, and I like to hide them, for fear of being known. Often, knowledge is not disseminated, nor is it inherited and developed at a deeper level.
There are two ways to design it, one is to set up a way for all children and grandchildren to get the right entry. If you get it wrong, the consequences are unimaginable. It's a safe approach, but it has a fatal drawback. No one can fully predict what will happen in the future. In case, which emperor burps faster and hasn't had time to tell his descendants, won't he break this treasure house?
The second way of thinking is to only consider the question of whether the bloodline inheritor can enter. As long as you match the bloodline, you can enter and leave freely. But this is also an unsafe way, an emperor, usually does not have only one blood heir. Then, you should need a special item. Children and grandchildren of those who hold special items and have bloodlines can enter. This speculation should obviously be the most reasonable.
Upon closer inspection, there was something in the middle of the door that looked like a keycover. Zhao Zhe's forehead began to sweat, if it was according to the second inferred design, then it might not be possible to toss it casually. But in case the inference is wrong, according to the ferocious mechanism seen in the previous movies......
Teeth gritted. Zhao Zhe peeled off the key cover and looked around nervously. But nothing happened. With a sigh of relief, he looked at the contents of the key cover again, which was a strange depression several inches long, which should have been stuffed into the token. Zhao Zhe searched for a while on his body and found that the piece that had been on his neck looked like jade and was not jade, and the texture was extremely hard, let's call it a jade pendant. The shape is very similar to the keyhole.
Seeing that he had a token, Zhao Zhe was a little bolder. Untie the jade pendant casually. turned to the queen and said, "Nianqing, you go out first, it's too dangerous to open the door." ”
"No, Your Majesty." The queen looked at me deeply, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He said softly: "As a queen, how can the concubine let the emperor take risks alone at such a juncture?" If the emperor is uneasy, we can leave together. "Although she is also very nervous, she is much better than Zhao Zhe, at least, her face is definitely not paler than mine.
"Fight." Zhao Zhe gritted his teeth, first believing his own inference. Second, being able to cross over and become an emperor is originally an extremely prosperous luck. The jade pendant was slowly placed deep into the groove.
Giggle~~ A sound of metal friction sounded, and the beast head on the outer ring began to rotate slowly.
