Chapter 201: The Key
Eh, it doesn't seem very good to slander his ancestors like this! Fortunately, this is just a slander, Ouyang Shu made up his mind that he must not declare such words. He hurriedly replied: Understood!
Li Gu's eyes moved, and he said: Are you lamenting in your heart that our ancestors are incompetent, and the dynasty is corrupted, so that these hundred and two golden ous were snatched away by others?
Ouyang Shu knew that he couldn't hide it from Li Gu, he knew himself too well, but he still had to deny it and said: It's nothing!
Li said with a smile: Emotion is emotion, scolding is scolding! Our Qianlong Pavilion has never paid attention to what is the Venerable's secret, no matter who it is, as long as it is wrong, it is wrong. If I am wrong, you can also be scolded as a son, and if you are wrong, my subordinate will also be scolded, and I will never be polite because you are my son.
There is an old saying: The fault of a gentleman is also like the eclipse of the sun and the moon: everyone sees it, and everyone looks up to it. This is the truth that I found in the Hidden Dragon Pavilion from the ruins after the defeat of my ancestors' inheritance. If we don't calmly face the mistakes of our ancestors and correct them, how can we do better than those mediocre people on our ancestors?
Therefore, not only you, the pavilion master, can bluntly point out the wrongs of your ancestors, but also the following cabinet members. Not only can they sharply point out the inadequacies of those mediocre people in their ancestors, but more importantly, they must supervise you at all times, and they can't let you make mistakes and ruin my Hidden Dragon Pavilion's hundred-year plan!
Of course, while pointing out that the ancestors are not, we still have to respect the ancestors. After all, they are our predecessors, and without them, we would not be possible. Therefore, my Qianlong Pavilion attaches great importance to the matter of worship.
Ouyang Shu couldn't help but nod. In fact, before he knew that the Li clan of the Southern Tang Dynasty was his ancestor, he had slandered the two faint monarchs of the Southern Tang Dynasty more than once. Originally, according to the Confucian philosophy of this era, there are no parents in the world who are not, and the ancestors are the same, so what he has committed is not a heinous crime?
Li Gu said again: Since all the levels have passed, we don't have to be idle. Haven't you already obtained the key to Old Man Xu? There is all the information about the Qianlong Pavilion here, you can go in and take a look at it yourself! You remember, all the documents in it can only be memorized in your heart, you want to read it, you can come to see it at any time, but you must not take out a piece of paper from it. In other days, if we succeed in recovering the country, we can activate the third key inside and destroy everything in it at once. However, this third key, I have only heard of it, and I have not seen it with my own eyes. Because, it's hidden here, and the specific situation, if you go to see it for yourself, it must be clear.
As he spoke, he gently patted the head of Li Zhongyu on the painting, only to hear a rumbling sound, and the wall was slowly separated from the left and right, and it turned out that this was actually a compound wall, and there was a door inside! Li Gu took out a key and said: This door has two keys, and it must be opened successively in order to open this door safely. If there is only one of the keys, the door is not impossible to open, but after entering the door, there are all the organs inside, even if the martial arts are invincible in the world, it is certain to die!
Ouyang Shu wiped a cold sweat and said secretly: This is really ruthless, after the general person who doesn't know the inside story gets a key, when he sees the door open, where is there anyone who is not ecstatic, but he didn't expect that after entering this time, it will be impossible to come out. Come to think of it, when it comes to the other brain propaganda in the cabinet, it is said that there is only one key, and if one of them has the heart of rebellion, even if he succeeds in obtaining the key, he will die on this mechanism!
Ouyang Shu hurriedly took out the key that Xu Jiang handed over to him, and took the one in Li Gu's hand, and turned it towards the keyhole one after another. Sure enough, not long after, the door inside the compound wall rustled open on its own.
Ouyang Shu didn't hesitate anymore and walked in slowly. Life in the palace was boring, and in the months that followed, Ouyang Shu could almost be said to be bored. Sometimes, he even prayed with lofty malice that Zhao Xu's illness could be done for a while, so that although he was not in white, he could also fulfill his duties as an angel in white.
However, although Zhao Xu was sick, in the first two months, he was really very little.
Fortunately, when he was extremely bored, Ouyang Shu was not too lonely, the place where he lived was the dormitory of the Inner Division, and there were originally a lot of palace ladies and chamberlains living here. Although these attendants all have a bad smell on them, they are used to pleasing people, and their mouths are sweet one by one, and when they are fine, they take listening to these people's sycophants as a pastime, which is not a bad pleasure.
And here, it has also become a place where the eldest princess Zhao Jing often visits recently. Ouyang Shu had gradually felt her faint affection, which made him a little entangled. Originally, the relationship between Zhao Jing and Fan Hongde was tangled enough, and Ouyang Shu was not very willing to intervene in it, although he knew that it would be impossible for the two of them to get back together in the future.
However, there was an evil voice that was always urging Ouyang Shu to do something that went against his heart. Regarding Zhao Jing's various hints, although she did not explicitly accept it, she did not directly reject it. The reason is Zhao Xu, now Ouyang Shu is very dissatisfied with Zhao Xu, he feels that he even feels a little obscene in his heart that if he gets his sister-in-law, when he becomes a cheap brother-in-law, it can be regarded as a kind of revenge against him.
Of course, this is just a thought. Ouyang Shu is now at home, and there is no place for Zhao Jing, and reason tells him that he must not really do anything with Zhao Jing. Otherwise, the consequences will be unmanageable.
Zhao Xu didn't suspect anything about the relationship between Ouyang Shu and Zhao Jing. Because every time Zhao Jing came, it was in the name of discussing the Queen Mother and Zhao Xu's condition, and Zhao Xu had no other thoughts about this except for being sincerely moved.
When facing Zhao Jing, Ouyang Shu tied his hands and feet, afraid that he would get too close and make a big incident, and if he was too far away, he would have no feeling of revenge against Zhao Xu, and he was a little unwilling. This feeling of imminence and detachment requires a lot of brain power to maintain, and he consumes a lot of brain cells for this.
But Zhao Jing was only ranked second on Ouyang Shu's most difficult list, and there was another person who made Ouyang Shu feel more difficult to face, and that was Queen Meng.
Empress Meng is now getting heavier, and her actions are naturally less and less convenient, and because she is Zhao Xu's only hope, Zhao Xu naturally attaches great importance to it. And because of Zhao Xu's attention and nervousness, the chamberlains and palace ladies who served Empress Meng were naturally trembling, for fear that there would be a little mistake.
