Chapter 27: The Treasure

Later, I walked around the city with Dongfang Bai for a long time, the prosperity of Jinling City, let me dizzy, after a long time, I found an inn to live in, and then began to check around the city.

Dongfang Bai doesn't go out, she stays in the house, occasionally comes out to eat, and also uses a scarf to cover it tightly, only revealing a pair of eyes, in my mind, she seems to be a lady, in addition to the superb martial arts, she is like an ordinary woman, since marrying me, she has been guarding those three from the four virtues, everything is my face, she rarely has her own opinions.

This time it was about the same, she was in the house, and I went out to check alone, but I searched for several days, and still found nothing. The treasure map seems to have been drawn in a hurry, the lines are very rough, except for the mountain, is a big house, Jinling City is too prosperous, the population is millions, thousands of houses, there are tall buildings everywhere, many houses are continuous, the style is also the same, those officials and big households, there are caretakers, and I can't go in to check at all.

The longer the time, the more anxious I became, I didn't want to go back with a sad face this day, but I was pulled by Dongfang Bai, I saw her take out the treasure map and spread it on the table, pointing to a small point of the house on the map, I looked at the place she pointed to, it seemed to be the door plaque of the big house, this I have already seen it, but this handwriting is really small and shallow, thinner than the ant's arm, the naked eye can not distinguish at all, I looked at it for a long time, and I didn't see it.

Seeing that she only showed me this, I couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, but when she saw me like this, she dipped her fingers in water and quickly wrote the words "Dagongfang Wei Guogong Cidi" on the table.

I was surprised and delighted when I saw this, and couldn't help but kiss her on the face, "Lady, you are really my lucky star." ”

Sure enough, with this news, I went out to inquire and quickly came to the conclusion that the Duke of Wei was the founding generalissimo Xu Da of this dynasty.

Such a famous figure, how can I not know, it didn't take much effort, I found the "Wei State Gongcidi", but when I came to the front door to take a look, I saw that the door was declining, the gold lacquer plaque had been broken, and the stone lion in front of the door was overgrown with weeds.

This is the mansion of the Duke of Wei, I am really dumbfounded, if it weren't for the patent-mottled words "The Duke of Wei Guoci" on the plaque, I would have thought I had found the wrong place.

I was still a little suspicious, the weather was also hot, so I simply took out a few taels of silver, found a small tea shed nearby, made a big lama, first ordered two pots of tea, Meimei took a sip, and then pretended to see it suddenly, pointing to the Wei State Gongcidi to inquire about the situation.

It was no secret that the old man of tea was overjoyed when he saw the money I had given, and in order to sell more bowls of tea, he chatted with me, and I soon learned why.

It turned out that this dynasty was founded, and the general Xu Dagong ranked first. He and Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang are friends of cloth. After Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor, he still called him "Brother Xu". Xu Da naturally did not dare to call the emperor brother and brother again, and was always respectful and cautious. One day, Ming Taizu drank with him, and in the middle of drinking, he said: "Brother Xu has a lot of credit, and I haven't settled down yet, so my old mansion will be given to you." ”

The so-called old mansion is the mansion where Taizu lived when he was the king of Wu, and after he ascended to the emperor, he naturally built another palace. Xu Da thought to himself: Taizu ascended to the pole from King Wu, if he lived in the old residence of King Wu, this suspicion would be big, and he would not accept anything.

Taizu saw that he understood the righteousness, and his heart was overjoyed, and he immediately made an order to build another mansion in front of the old mansion to give him, and personally inscribed the word "great merit" as the name of the house where it was located.

It's just that Xu Da didn't dare to stay in it for anything, after Xu Da died, he left four sons and three daughters, and the three daughters were the princesses of Taizu's sons, the eldest daughter was Princess Yan, and later became the queen of Chengzu, the second daughter was the princess of Daiwang, and the third daughter was Princess An.

King Yan rebelled, and Xu Da's eldest son Xu Huizu was loyal to Emperor Jianwen and led troops to resist the Yan army. Xu Da's youngest son, Xu Zengshou, secretly colluded with his brother-in-law King Yan. King Yan's soldiers came to the city of Nanjing, and Emperor Jianwen summoned Xu Zengshou to question. Xu Zengshou didn't answer, and Emperor Jianwen personally slashed him with a sword.

After Chengzu succeeded to the throne, Xu Huizu moved into his father's ancestral hall to live, and refused to see him, Chengzu was very unhappy, although he did not kill him, but the holy family was no more.

On the contrary, Chengzu thanked Xu Zengshou for dying for himself, and posthumously named him the Duke of Dingguo.

Therefore, Xu Da's descendants have two dukes, the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Dingguo. The descendants of the two dukes lived in Nanjing, Kyoto, and Beijing. Xu Huizu offended Chengzu, and his descendants did not dare to live in Dagongfang's Cidi anymore and moved to another place. The Great Gongfang gave the first several times, and after more than 100 years, it gradually fell into disuse.

As soon as I heard it, I understood probably, paid the tea money and left, came back to the inn, and waited until the dead of night, I quietly came here with Dongfang Bai in the night, relying on Dongfang Bai's super light skills, we secretly entered inside, took out the treasure map and looked at the house, and saw that although there were many changes in the passage house in the house, the overall situation was shelf, if it was in line with the festival.

I was overjoyed to see it, and knew that this "Wei State Gongci" was indeed what the picture meant, and I searched for it according to the treasure mark on the map, and it turned out to be in a firewood room in the back garden.

I immediately took out the firewood and grass inside, found a shovel, and dug down, this kind of manual work was naturally done by me, while Dongfang Bai was outside the firewood room. After digging for half an hour, I heard a loud sound, and the shovel touched a large stone, shoveling away the soil from the stone, revealing a large stone slab. I hurriedly called Dongfang Bai, and the two of them worked together to lift the stone slab, and there was a big hole underneath.

I was overjoyed, and was about to go down, but was pulled by Dongfang Bai, I didn't know why, I saw that she took two bundles of firewood and grass, lit them and threw them in the hole, but as soon as the firewood and grass entered the hole, they were immediately extinguished.

I gasped, knowing that it was the turbidity in the closed cave, and secretly rejoiced, fortunately she was thoughtful, otherwise I would have suffocated to death if I jumped down.

When the filth was gone, I lit a torch with her and walked down the stone steps, and under the light of the torches, I saw ten large iron boxes lined up. The iron boxes were locked with huge locks, but the keys were nowhere to be found.

I was in a hurry, and was about to split it with my sword, but I was stopped by Dongfang Bai, only to see her write in the palm of my hand, be careful of the hidden weapon, she seems to be very experienced, I am a little strange, but I just listen to her.

She took my sword, brushed the lock, tied the ring on the lid of the box with a rope, and then quickly pulled me to the side, and pulled the lid up with the rope, and after a while, there was nothing out of the ordinary.

When we moved into the torch box, we saw that the tin box was empty, except for a bunch of keys and two pieces of paper.

I picked up the paper and saw that it was written: "My uncle's rebellion, all the military ministers surrendered." Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, was a meritorious hero and loyal to Sheji, which was commendable. The inner house is a treasure, and the emperor can't carry it, and the Duke of Wei guards it. He revisited the temple community and used it as a resource. Jianwen was written in June of the fourth year. ”

I was overjoyed when I saw it, and I thought that this was really a treasure left by Emperor Jianwen when King Yan usurped the throne.

Then I opened the second piece of paper, and there was actually a poem on it: "Forty autumns in the southwest, Xiao Xiao's white hair has grown up." Qiankun has hatred, where is the family? Jianghan is ruthless and artesian. The clouds in the Changle Palace dispersed, and the sound of rain on the Chaoyuan Pavilion was collected. The new pampas and willows are green every year, and the wild old ones are crying endlessly. ”

What the hell, I took a look, I didn't look at it, but quickly took the key, opened a few other iron boxes, opened the lid of the box, only to feel dazzling flowers, my eyes were completely stared out, only to see a big box full of jade, pearls, and open a box, but it is agate, jadeite, none of them are not worth thousands of treasures. My face was full of surprise and joy. Copying the bottom, I saw that the lower half of the box was stacked with gold bricks, and the same was true of all ten boxes.

I was born to the present, it is the first time to see so many gold and silver jewelry, I was so excited that I couldn't go up, I went up directly, picked up a handful of jewelry for a while, and took out a few gold bricks for a while, gnawed and bitten, for a long time, my mood was slightly calm.

As soon as I turned around, I saw that Dongfang Bai didn't look at these jewels, but took the poem I threw down, and looked at it blankly, I was a little strange, I went up and took a closer look, the handwriting was exactly the same as another letter, but it was more vigorous and upright, it should have been written by Emperor Jianwen, I looked at it for a long time, I don't know why, I just don't know why Dongfang Bai was fascinated by it, and it seemed to be very emotional.

I don't know why, pulled her, she came back to her senses, I told her that we got rich, she saw me so happy, but also smiled, I was happy, saw that her bun was simply inserted into a wooden hairpin, a mind moved, casually in the box took a delicate hosta for her to wear.

I looked at it, it didn't seem to look good, I picked another one, I still didn't feel good, I simply pulled her, picked and picked in a pile of jewelry, hairpins, jewelry, necklaces, as long as I thought it was good-looking, put it on her, at that moment, I laughed happily, and she seemed to be very happy.
