Chapter 213: Traces

Before entering the door, Ouyang Shu heard Li Shu say that there were a lot of hidden weapons and the like, Ouyang Shu was still a little apprehensive in his heart, and walked slowly step by step, for fear of touching a sensitive place, and there were no bones. After more than ten steps, the space of the trail suddenly opened up. It turns out that there is a small secret room in it.

This secret room was relatively dim, and with the faint light, Ouyang Shu could vaguely distinguish that there was a table and a chair furnished here, and there was a lamp on the left side of the table, the wick had been burned half, but it had not yet burned out, and there were two flints next to it. On the right side of the table is a stack of papers, neatly folded.

Ouyang Shu hurriedly lit the lamp, and the small secret room immediately opened up. When I looked at it again, I saw that there was still a can of oil under the table, which should be used to light the lamp. The whole chamber was very neat, but strangely enough, the floor was a little messy, and there were some papers full of words scattered in a mess.

Ouyang Shu picked up the papers and looked at them, stunned for a moment. It turned out that these were some important documents of the Qianlong Pavilion in the past two years. Each one of them is a thing that the Hidden Dragon Pavilion has done.

For example, the amnesty in the second half of last year was actually created out of nothing by the Qianlong Pavilion. At that time, Zhao Xu was in a panic because the life of the little prince was in danger and the medicine was useless. The Taishi Bureau is actually equivalent to the ancient sacrificial department, but the society has reached the era of the Great Song Dynasty, and people are far less than they believe in ghosts, gods, astronomy, etc., as in ancient times, so the status of the Taishi Bureau has long declined and has become an idle department. Generally speaking, the king rarely asks the Taishi Bureau. Therefore, the vast majority of the officials of the Taishi Bureau of the Great Song Dynasty only held their positions in vain and did not work in the yamen. And such a department has become very easy to penetrate, and the Qianlong Pavilion has long controlled this department.

Since Zhao Xu asked about the plan, Qianlong Pavilion wanted to take this opportunity to subdue the hearts of the Yuanyou party, including Fan Chunren, Su Shi and others, so he asked for amnesty under the pretext of the guest star offender. Unexpectedly, although Zhao Xu decided to grant amnesty, he still deliberately added a sentence that the Yuanyou party would not amnesty, which made the plan of Qianlong Pavilion finally fail.

All in all, the big and small decisions of the Qianlong Pavilion, internal job changes, etc., are all recorded one by one.

A recent document clearly stated that Ouyang Shu himself had passed the test of the previous cabinet master, General Meng, and became the only candidate to succeed the cabinet master. Looking at the word Meng Jiang, Ouyang Shu is still a little unaccustomed, he often names and slanders Xu Jiang in his heart, and he has long been accustomed to his name, at this time, when he saw this name, he couldn't help but think of the infatuated Meng Jiangnu who cried down the 800-mile Great Wall, and he always felt a little weird.

And then there's about this expedition. Ouyang Shu saw a list, which listed the names, detailed addresses, and specific circumstances of each person who participated in the scientific examination in Qianlong Pavilion this time. And he, Ouyang Shu, is on the list.

At this time, Ouyang Shu understood what the list that the two people of the Ming Sect had asked her to hand over when they were chasing and killing Xu Shuilan was. According to the time, it should be this list. Ouyang Shu couldn't help but secretly get lucky, fortunately, Xu Shuilan was a good comrade and didn't betray the organization. Otherwise, this list would fall into the hands of the Ming Sect, and the Qianlong Pavilion would be constrained, and I was afraid that many people, including Ouyang Shu's family, would go to see Mark Er, that Empress Li.

Ouyang Shu continued to look down at these documents one by one, and the more he looked at them, the more shocked he became, and the more he looked at them, the more cold sweat broke out. He has never been a very timid person, but when he sees it, he only feels cold on his back, and he is sweating all over his body.

Since ancient times, it has been the least known that has the best sense of society, and the more you know, the less illusions you have. Ouyang Shu has never been a very idealistic person, but after reading these documents, he still feels that this society is simply a little evil, and many things are actually too different from what he sees.

He picked up the papers, folded them, and then looked at the large stack on the table. It turned out that this was an older document, and its content was roughly similar to the one picked up on the ground.

At this time, Ouyang Shu figured it out. It turned out that the documents in this room were not put in directly through the door, but through some secret agency. As a result, the new paperwork was scattered on the floor. Only when the cabinet master entered, did he pick them up and sort them out. In this way, Xu Jiang's old boy must have not been to Shezhou for many years.

The older ones on this stack of documents are relatively recent, and the handwriting is relatively clear, but the further back you go, the more blurred the handwriting becomes, and the paper is gradually becoming a little yellow. However, there was no trace of insect and rat bites in even one of these documents, which surprised Ouyang Shu. In such a secret room where no one enters all year round, it is not easy to ensure that insects and ants do not grow.

And the documents at the bottom, originally according to Ouyang Shu's imagination, were too old, and the handwriting should be blurry and illegible. I don't want to, but it's not, not only is the paper more *** than the above, but the handwriting is also quite clear, and it looks like it should have been transcribed.

Although Ouyang Shu didn't read a lot of things below, because there were too many of them, it was impossible to finish them all night. However, Ouyang Shu was sure that the secrets hidden in this would only be more than what he had seen, not less. He even secretly thought: If these things can be preserved until a thousand years later before they are excavated, it will definitely cause a shock in archaeology and cause a large number of rewrites of history books!

At this time, the light gradually dimmed, and Ouyang Shu looked back to see that the wick had almost burned out, and then he remembered that the time he had come in had been quite short. If it were in normal times, these precious materials would be one more than one copy, but now he thought in his heart that there were two beautiful ladies waiting for him in the new house. These documents can be read at any time if they want to read them, but the night of candles in the cave room is destined to be only once for them. How could he snub his wife for the sake of his own curiosity?

Ouyang Shu hurriedly sorted out these documents, blew out the lamp and walked out.

When Li Gu saw him come out, he didn't say much, so he activated the mechanism and locked the door again. He asked Ouyang Shu for the key he was in charge of, and then said, "You go first!"

Ouyang Shu thought about it, if two people met acquaintances together, it would be inconvenient. He didn't say much and went out. When he returned to Yu Mude's meditation room, Yu Mude was still meditating on the chess game, and when he saw Ouyang Shu walking in, he smiled bitterly: I don't understand, just rely on you, how can you break my chess game?

Ouyang Shu really wanted to tell him truthfully that he would only take this step himself, and the following process was all set up by yourself, if Ouyang Shu was allowed to continue to put it on, he would be exposed immediately. However, he didn't say anything after all, smiled mysteriously, and disappeared into the night.
