Chapter 437: Dawn and Dryness
In the main hall of Bi Shifu, the two still maintained the posture of meeting before, Ruan He stood in the center of the main hall, and Lu You stood next to the statue of Bi Sheng, separated by a "safe distance" from each other.
Neither of the two dwelled on the past, and talked about business first. Ruan He was the first to tell the news from all over the world.
First of all, the three keys, Zheng Zaixun didn't know, he didn't even know the existence of the West Lake Prison before knocking on the side, presumably he didn't know where Bi Lemeng and Bi Sheng disappeared over the years, and then he followed Gao Huaien north to the Yangzhou Branch, and Ruan He could only go to find out the news by himself.
After that, she changed her appearance as the most favored student of Dong Chuanmei, and asked him several times while he was drunk, but he didn't expect his mouth to be very tight, and he didn't reveal the slightest tone, although he didn't get any information about who kept the key, but Dong Chuanmei confirmed that the key did exist.
This information is a piece of waste information, Jing Muluo went north to Suzhou and was not in the Ninth Division's Mansion, Ruan He could go and investigate it by himself. Although Yi Rong didn't gain much this time, Yi Rong's method really helped her a lot, such as the news of Bi Sheng's imprisonment.
Last year, she entered the underground prison with Zhao Shili through the disguise of Sun Dayou, and visited Lu You once, and the two greeted Bi Lemeng by the way, and then Ruan He learned the news of Bi Sheng from Zhao Shili.
It was also at that time that Ruan He confirmed the list of people in the academy who "knew that Bi Sheng was imprisoned", namely: Bi Chuluo, Jing Muluo, Zhao Zhongxiang, Bi Lemeng, Sun Dayou, and Zhao Shili.
As for whether Zhao Shicheng and Tang Wan knew it or not, Zhao Shili didn't say much that day, and Ruan He didn't ask more for fear of revealing her identity, and later she disguised herself as Tang Wan and secretly contacted Zhao Shicheng once, feeling that he didn't know much about the fact that Bi Sheng was imprisoned. Either he has been hiding from Tang Wan, or Zhao Zhongxiang and Zhao Shili are hiding it from him.
After several months of observation, after a long time of squatting and waiting, she found that every morning and dusk, Zhang Chuanxiao, Dong Chuanmei, Hao Jiawen, and Zou Satin would take turns carrying food boxes into the main hall of Bishifu, and after half an hour, they would carry empty food boxes out of the palace, thinking that they were the people who delivered food to the West Lake Prison.
There are four more people on this list, so she changed her appearance as Dong Chuanmei's student and went to find out the news of the key, but she didn't get important information.
But now it doesn't matter if there is information or not, a group of ancestors and disciples went north to Suzhou, which just gave her the opportunity to sneak into Luoshen's Mansion to find the key, I hope Jing Muluo will not carry it with him.
Lu You didn't find out too much news, only knew that Bi Chuluo had been in retreat in the King's Mansion, and it was not easy to enter the mansion to investigate. However, Lu You mentioned another passage to the West Lake Prison, and that time he went to the other side of the West Lake under the leadership of Xiaohong, but it went directly into a crack in the ground, and Lu You gave up this road.
can only enter the underground prison from the main hall, Lu You can't help but mention the hidden mechanism in the main hall, it just so happened that Ruan He had seen how Zhao Shili operated, so he told him.
The entrance to the underground prison was at the foot of the giant Bi Sheng statue, which Lu You also saw when he came out of the underground prison. The mechanism is located on the back of the clay statue on the printing template, there is a paragraph on the template, each word is the size of a palm, press the three words "Bi", "Division" and "Open" in turn, the mechanism will be activated, the lower body of the clay statue will be translated backwards, and the ground is the entrance to the prison, leading from a section of steps to the ground. If you want to close, in addition to the mechanism of the stone wall of the steps, there are also three words on the template, "Bishi Pass", at that time, Lu You was taken to the ground by Zhao Zhongxiang and the others, and went directly out of the hall, so he didn't know that there was this joint.
After the two complained to each other, they decided to take action immediately, and the two of them got out of the palace gate and secretly infiltrated the Nine Divisions' Mansion.
The Nine Divisions' Mansion is a series of nine mansions, namely the King's Mansion, Luoshen's Mansion, Jiaolong's Mansion, Qingfeng Mansion, the Most Holy Mansion, the Gonggong Mansion, the Tianbao Mansion, the Moqi Mansion, and the Ruyi Mansion, which are actually the names of the nine sets of Egret Academy.
The Nine Divisions Mansion was the office of the original Nine Masters, but Bi Chuluo and Jing Muluo chose to live here, two of them set an example, Sima Wang, Zhang Zifu, and Wang Chang also moved into the Nine Divisions' Mansion, and the rest only worked here, some people had other mansions, such as Tang Hong's Tang Mansion, and some people lived in the Ancestral Mansion on the east side of Wenyuan, such as the dead Deng Wei. Therefore, Lu You's stay in the Kaigong Mansion does not seem abrupt.
Although these nine mansions are called "mansions", they are actually nine larger mansions, and there are at most two rooms in a mansion, one study is used for daily office work, and one bedroom is used for sleeping, so the search area is not large.
After the two entered the Luo Shen Mansion, they worked together, Lu You went to the study, and Ruan He went to the bedroom. Fortunately, Jing Muluo did not carry the key with him, but hid it in the drawer of the dresser, and the key was in a long wooden box more than a foot long, and the key itself was the size of a palm, so it was indeed inconvenient to carry it with him.
The two then returned to the construction house, closed the doors and windows and lit the candles, put the key in front of the lamp and looked carefully, and found that there was a small "view" on the front of the key and a "ground" on the back, and there were no other clues. Lu You pondered for a long time, and said to Ruan He: "We can't steal the key yet, we have to match an identical key to replace the real with the fake, so that Jing Muluo will not be suspicious." ”
"It's simple, I'll go to the south of the city tomorrow to get the key." Ruan He put the key in the wooden box, frowned and asked, "The key is how do we get the other two keys?" ”
Lu You heard this question, and then said: "This is exactly what I want to say, we have also searched carefully just now, there is indeed no second key, I think the other two are not necessarily in the king's mansion, according to what you said, Zhao Zhongxiang also knew that Bi Sheng was imprisoned, indicating that he was also involved in the rebellion, as a descendant of the Northern Song Dynasty royal family, his status is noble, and he must also hold a key, but he does not live in Jiaolong Mansion, but in Zhao Mansion in the west of the city, this is difficult to do." As for this one in the king's mansion, Bi Chuluo is in the mansion all the year round, and it is really not easy to steal, and when the rescue time is determined, we will do it in the end. ”
Ruan He listened, nodded, and said: "That's fine, but this one of the Zhao Mansion is really not easy to steal, the Zhao Mansion is too big, like a headless fly, it will only expose our identity, I think ......"
"Yi Rong is Tang Wan?"
"No, no, no......" Ruan He shook his finger and said, "The Zhao Mansion is so big, the search for the key can't be completed in a day or two, and it's okay for a short time to disguise Tang Wan, but if it takes a long time, if it appears in the Zhao Mansion at the same time as the real Tang Wan, then I won't be exposed?" Besides, we said at the beginning, I am responsible for Jing Muluo, you are responsible for Bi Chuluo, I have found Jing Muluo's hand, Bi Chuluo's hand, and you and I will act together in the end, and Zhao Zhongxiang's hand, when you go to search. ”
"Between you and me, do you still have to be so clear?" Lu You frowned, slightly unhappy in his heart.
When Ruan He heard this, his face immediately changed, and he said in a low voice, "Are we very close?" Huo'er is a mutual friend of you and me, everyone has a role to play in saving her, why should I bear it alone? ”
"Oops......" Lu You hurriedly explained, "You know I didn't mean that......"
"Huh...... So what do you mean? Ruan He raised his eyebrows and sneered.
Lu You looked at her with a willowy face, the appearance of raising eyebrows was really a little ugly, and replied with a calm face: "I mean...... We don't have to be strangers, after all, we used to ......"
"Huh...... I knew it! Before Ruan He could finish speaking, he interrupted in a cold voice, "I haven't said a word seriously, and I'm here to hook up with Ruan He again!" Lu You, are you the reincarnation of a radish? ”
"Can we talk well, why do we have to quarrel over these things every time we meet?" Lu You was also unhappy, he really couldn't stand Ruan He's inexplicable tantrums.
"Okay, say it well, be honest and honest." Ruan He crossed his arms, stared at Lu You's gloomy face, and asked, "Do you still have any feelings for Tang Wan?" ”
"It's not!" Lu You categorically denied it, "I got the news of Feng Haizhong last year, and I just wanted to see her for the last time, and I didn't have anything else in mind, after all, we are all family people." ”
"Then why did you make a song "Hairpin Phoenix" for her? It's a good one's sorrowful, ten years away. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Although the mountain league is here, it is difficult to trust the brocade book. Mo, Mo, Mo! 'Do you dare to say that you don't have the slightest intention of redemption?' Ruan He's words were obviously jealous, and she didn't hide it at all, her face was gloomy and a little ugly.
"Please, I thought you were her at that time, and Wang He was also her, since she helped me several times, how could I be upset?" Lu You spread his hands and tried to explain, looking like a poor angry bag.
"Oh...... Even if she helped you, you would be able to write such shameless poems? Don't you know that everyone already has two children? Ruan He asked.
As soon as he heard Ruan He turn the question back to the most basic moral question, Lu You couldn't help but feel guilty, this is indeed his fault, hooking up with a married woman, whoever evaluates him, will count him down.
A mistake is a mistake, Lu You admitted that he was really confused at that time, but Ruan He's question is a proposition, and he must not answer it like this.
Lu You rolled his eyes, pretended to sigh, and complained: "Although Feng Hai was given to me by Tang Wan, that poem was actually written for you, what I miss in my heart is your affection for so many years, not the youthful love eleven years ago, I am grateful to you now, you who have been secretly helping me, not the tomboy eleven years ago, I said this, do you understand?" ”
Although Lu You deliberately said this to appease Ruan He's resentment, he did think so in his heart. It's been eleven years, and he can't remember the appearance of the tomboy Ruan He at the beginning, and he was moved by the fact that when they meet again after eleven years, she can still help herself regardless of pay, that is her deep love for herself, a song "Hairpin Phoenix" is just that, far from enough to express her ten thousand thoughts.
Ruan He always felt better in his heart when he heard Lu You's explanation, and snorted coldly: "If it weren't for you and Huo'er, I wouldn't have been too lazy to save Bi Sheng, but I would have been happy to see my aunt and uncle rebelling, and the Dog Emperor would have stepped down a long time ago!" ”
As soon as he heard Ruan He mention this, Lu You hurriedly asked, "What was the reason for the tragic destruction of your family fourteen years ago?" ”
"I don't know!" Ruan He replied angrily, "The Dog Emperor is in a bad mood, if you want to destroy it, you can destroy it!" ”
"How do I feel, you don't have deep feelings for your family?" Lu You muttered quietly.
"Deceive the world, it is not surprising that there is such an ending, but the dog emperor exterminated humanity and divided my father's five horses, and his death was too tragic and unjust!" Ruan He threw a fist and smashed it on the table, and the table burst open a few cracks in an instant, shattering to the ground.
"That'...... Did Jing Muluo save you? Lu You asked cautiously.
"It's not!" Ruan He replied in a deep voice, "I was hidden by my father in the secret passage of the well, and when she went to Ruanjia Town, Ruan's family had been washed away by blood, and she found me in the well, and then took me to Hangzhou and handed over Xiao Li Tang Winery to me. ”
Lu You asked this, and he didn't dare to ask any more, under Ruan He's gloomy fake face, maybe his eyes would have been torn apart with anger, and the sea of blood was churning.
However, judging from her attitude towards her family, she doesn't seem to have much affection for her relatives other than her father, so she won't feel too guilty about stealing the keys of her aunt and uncle.
She's helped me so much, I hope I don't bother her.
