Chapter 39 Long Live the Heavens
We were just about to step into the Tongtian Palace, ready to start further research here, but before we could take a step, Xue Nan, who had been silent for a long time, let out an exclamation.
Could it be that Xue Nan found something?
This second layer is also not small, because this place is extremely empty, so Xue Nan's exclamation is extremely loud, with the sound of her voice, our group of people began to look around with full vigilance, trying to find the reason for Xue Nan's exclamation.
After all, this is the Vientiane Shrine, whether it is for Wu Zetian or for Guanshan, it is a very important place, just in case, it is inevitable that there will be no afterhand arrangement when it is built, so as to prevent future generations of people with bad intentions from coming here to do mischief.
However, it seems that it is not quite the same as our guess, Xue Nan's expression is not as nervous as ours.
When she saw us on guard, she couldn't help but laugh softly, and the expression on her face gradually softened, and she stretched out her right hand to point to the plaque above.
"Don't be nervous, I just found some problems, you look at the plaque above, are there other words engraved below the three words of Tongtian Palace?"
Hearing Xue Nan speak, we were relieved.
It turned out that her exclamation was not because she had discovered some fatal mechanism, but because she had discovered a detail that we had overlooked.
Everyone's eyes unconsciously followed the direction of her finger, under the faint light of the fire in the trench, we carefully examined it, and after some careful observation, we found that there was really a line of small characters under the three big characters of Tongtian Palace.
Different from the three big characters of Tongtian Palace, the small characters below can really be said to be a small block of the fly's head, although it is not clear whether it is italics, but it is not an exaggeration to describe it with a fly's head, we roughly estimate that this line of words does not even have a knuckle size.
The light here is dim, and this line of words is deliberately engraved very small, we only noticed the three big characters of Tongtian Palace at first glance, if it weren't for the careful Xue Nan to open his mouth to remind, I think we would never have found the existence of a line of small characters below.
We stared at the plaque and tried to identify it, but we couldn't see the specific content of the small word, you look at me and I look at you, with a face full of unwillingness, but there is no other way.
Yi He saw our expressions, and knew that we could not distinguish the words carefully because of the dim light, so he jumped up without waiting for us to speak, and jumped to the plaque above the door, ready to solve our problems.
However, although Yi He jumped to the side of the plaque, after holding on to the door and carefully identifying the plaque, he reluctantly fell back to the place, glancing at the silent Chunting on the side without saying a word.
And seeing Yi He's helpless expression, I roughly guessed the reason.
Maybe it's because this line of small characters is also written by Qin Seal, so Yi He doesn't know it.
And among the group, only Chunting could distinguish the so-called Qin Seal, but Yi He had a delicate relationship with him, and it was difficult to open his mouth to command, so he was helpless and didn't say a word.
I couldn't help but have a headache, the relationship between these two people is really a problem.
But now is obviously not the time to dwell on these, after figuring out the reason, I looked at Chunting and said to him tentatively.
"Chunting, it seems that the text on it is also Qin Seal, we can't distinguish this Qin Seal, so we can only trouble you to go up and take a look."
After Chunting heard what I said, he glanced at Yi He quietly, and seemed to understand the reason for his expression, and then he nodded imperceptibly, and then looked at the plaque calmly.
I saw his right foot tap the ground, and his body jumped high like pulling onions on dry land, landing in the same position as Yihe just now, stepping on the door with his left hand, holding the end of the plaque with his right hand, and began to carefully examine the words on the plaque.
After inspecting, the spring pavilion fell from the sky and landed beside us with confidence.
When I saw Chunting's expression, I knew that he must have had a satisfactory harvest.
"Chunting, how is it, what does that line of text mean?"
"That line is a date."
Although Chun Ting's face was full of confidence, there was a trace of hesitation between his mouths, as if he couldn't figure out the content of the text.
"Long live the first year."
As he uttered the words on the plaque, we were once again at a loss.
This line of text is actually a date?
This is the Vientiane Shrine, and we thought that all the arrangements in it should have its meaning of existence, so the words on this plaque should also be extremely important, and it must be some secret about this place, or a secret that has not been recorded in some history books.
But we never imagined that this line of text is just a simple date, and how can this date help us?
Although Xue Nan was as confused as us after hearing this, she was delicate after all, and quickly looked at Chunting and asked an important question.
"Chunting, you are very knowledgeable, you might as well think about what year this so-called Long Live Tongtian first year was, and what major events happened in that year?"
I was stunned when I heard Xue Nan's question, and then I suddenly realized.
Thanks to Xue Nan's reminder, it seems that this time we are preconceived again.
We all think that this text will tell us something simply and directly, and after finding out that it is just a date, we will inevitably doubt ourselves and fall into misunderstandings.
And Xue Nan's question is to the point, since this is a date, then we can go back to the roots and think about what happened in that year, maybe this is what the words on the plaque really want to tell us.
In the time I was thinking, Chun Ting also understood what Xue Nan meant, and after careful calculation in his mind, he opened his mouth to determine the specific time of the year for Xue Nan.
"Long live Tongtian, is Wu Zetian established Wu Zhou to become the empress after the eighth year name, this era name was only used for one year was replaced by the Empress Wu for Shengong, if you use the current AD year to calculate, long live the first year of Tongtian is 696 AD.
It was business as usual that year, nothing big happened, and the only big thing worth mentioning was at our feet at the moment. ”
Shen Lang was not satisfied after hearing Chun Ting's explanation, he frowned and looked at Chun Ting, and began the spirit of breaking the casserole and asking the end.
"Brother Ting, what do you mean by our feet?"
After Ling Xuan heard Xue Nan's question, he also understood what we were wrong, and after thinking carefully in his mind, he had his own answer, and explained to Shen Lang with a confident face.
"It is recorded in the history books that in the first year of Long Live Dengfeng, because Luoyang Xinming Hall was completed, the Empress Wu was very happy, so she decided to change the Yuan Long Live Tongtian, the only major event that could be counted that year was the Tongtian Palace under our feet!"
