Volume 2 The Mysterious Burial of Xuanwu Chapter 109 The Secret Story of Heaven (II)
Who is Yang Tianze? He is an expert who is obsessed with the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and this expert can be said to have a good knowledge of many important secrets of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.
The cadres of the Cultural Relics Bureau had also heard of Yang Tianze, and the cadre said: "This person has a bit of a strange temper. ”
The expert asked Shen Yifan on the side: "Do you know that Yang Tianze?" ”
Shen Yifan shook his head and said, "I shouldn't know." I don't know how this person's name came to my head? ”
The official of the Cultural Relics Bureau said: "Yang Tianze is a professor in the famous history department of Jinling University, and you may have listened to his lectures. ”
The expert asked, "How can we find him?" ”
The cadre of the Cultural Relics Bureau said: "Jinling University! ”
Jinling University, Comprehensive Teaching Building.
Shen Yifan and the experts walked in the corridor of the teaching building, holding an address in their hands, looking at the address and looking at the door numbers in the corridor.
The expert said: "Coming to the university is quite memorable. ”
Shen Yifan doesn't seem to have any impression of college life, I don't know if he hasn't studied college or if part of his amnesia has memories of college life, he said: "People like you should harm a lot of girls in college, right?" ”
The expert whispered, "Do I really look like a playboy?" ”
Shen Yifan smiled slightly and said, "What do you think of yourself?" ”
"I think I'm pretty single-minded," the expert said. ”
Shen Yifan sneered: "You just focus on a girl's figure and face, right?" ”
When the expert heard this, he hurriedly said, "You don't come." I'm serious this time. ”
Shen Yifan asked curiously when he heard this, "Which one?" ”
The expert said: "Xinjiang beauty! Hani! ”
Shen Yifan smiled after hearing this: "Not bad! The prodigal son also had the idea of turning back. ”
The two of them didn't say a word, and they heard the class bell ringing, and an old man in a plaid shirt walked towards them in a panic, and the expert and Shen Yifan looked at this person with amusement.
The man in front of him was wearing an off-white plaid shirt, few strands of hair, a pair of large black-rimmed glasses, a book in his hand, very greasy jeans, and a pair of ordinary cloth shoes on his feet.
The man looked at his watch while trotting, as if he was in a hurry, came to the classroom door next to Shen Yifan and the expert, and was about to open the door, when he suddenly looked back at the expert and Shen Yifan, and asked, "Classmate!" Are you here for class? ”
The two looked funny but didn't dare to laugh, so they nodded with a smile.
The man lowered his eyes and said, "Then you won't go in?" ”
Shen Yifan and the expert hurriedly walked past the person's side and walked into the classroom, as soon as they entered the classroom, they were all dumbfounded, the entire classroom was filled with the only vacant seats, that is, there were a few in the last corner, most of the students in the classroom were girls, and there were only a few boys.
As soon as the expert entered, he saw several beautiful female students in the first row, whistling at them, Shen Yifan grabbed the expert and hurriedly walked towards the last row, and said as he walked: "What's the matter with the current beauty?" Do you all like this greasy uncle's class? ”
The expert smiled: "You don't understand, do you?" At first glance, these women are here to mix credits. ”
The two sat down in the corner as they spoke, and the expert said: "You see that these men and women are not serious about studying, I guess they are all acting departments opened by Jinling University." They come to class mainly to earn credits. ”
At this time, the greasy uncle had already prepared everything, and after the students stood up and bowed politely, the uncle began to lecture.
Shen Yifan listened to it for a while and felt that it was also interesting, because what this uncle said happened to be the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, so he leaned over and asked a student who was sleeping against the wall what the name of this professor was.
The student said very impatiently: "Yang Tianze." ”
Shen Yifan's mouth popped out: "I'll go!" ”
The expert asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Shen Yifan said: "He is Yang Tianze. ”
Yang Tianze's lecture was about painting and coloring, completely sweeping away the greasy and panicked form just now, and Shen Yifan was also a little fascinated when he heard it.
At the end of the class, the students had already left the classroom in a hurry before Yang Tianze finished speaking, and they seemed to be in a hurry, while Yang Tianze was alone on the podium to clean up his things.
He looked up at Shen Yifan and the expert and asked, "Aren't you going to catch the next class?" ”
The expert said, "Professor Yang. Actually, we are not students of Jinling University. ”
Professor Yang said, "Oh! You're here to skip class. ”
Shen Yifan said: "We are specially here to find you. ”
"Looking for me?" Yang Tianze said with an incredible wry smile: "As long as my class is full, I can get credits, what do you want me to do?" ”
"We're not in it for credits," the expert said. ”
Yang Tianze was very curious, raised his glasses and asked, "What is that for?" ”
Shen Yifan smiled slightly and said, "Professor Yang." We came to you to ask about the history of the Heavenly Kingdom. ”
"Oh! That's right! Let's go to the cafeteria and talk while eating! Yang Tianze walked outside as he said while packing up his things.
The expert hurriedly stopped Yang Tianze and said, "Professor Yang! You see, it's time for dinner, and neither of us has eaten. Otherwise, we'll invite you to eat nearby. I heard that there is a Yuedelou here, and the dishes are still good. ”
When Yang Tianze heard this, he said, "Okay! That's Yuede Building. ”
Shen Yifan was a little puzzled and asked quietly, "Why don't you eat in the cafeteria?" ”
The expert said: "The college trilemma. It's hard to sleep! It's hard to eat! Traffic is difficult! The food in the university cafeteria is comparable to the top of dark cuisine. ”
Shen Yifan also understood when he heard this, it is estimated that the food in the canteen is not delicious, so the expert wants to take Professor Yang to Yuedelou, Professor Yang may also be afraid of eating in the canteen, and when he heard that he went to Yuedelou to think about it, he agreed directly.
Jinling University went out, turned two streets, on the southeast side of the intersection there is a very quaint two-storey building with five openings and three entrances, and there is a plaque of "Yuede Building" hanging at the gate.
The expert said: "When I was in college, I heard my high school classmates boast that the food in Delou was good. ”
Professor Yang nodded and said, "After all, it's a time-honored brand!" ”
The history of Yuedelou is not much to expand here, the three of them went up to a private room on the second floor with the waiter, and the expert hurriedly asked Professor Yang to order, and Yang Tianze ordered a few dishes after a few excuses.
Shen Yifan looked at the menu and saw that the price was scary, a plate of fried shrimp cost more than 200, not to mention the other four dishes and a soup, it went to a small 1,000.
Yang Tianze was not polite, he ordered a fish and a braised pork, a shrimp lily celery, a crispy eel tower and a bowl of eight immortals jade jade soup, and while ordering the dishes, he was still introducing the methods of these dishes, which seemed to be a diner.
Yang Tianze looked at Shen Yifan and the expert and said, "Four dishes and one soup are enough for the three of us." The portion of food here is quite adequate. Why don't we have a pot of wine? He asked tentatively, and said: "The daughter red here is a Jinling Internet celebrity product." ”
"Yes! Yes," Shen Yifan and the expert said in agreement.
This Yang Tianze is not polite, and the dishes are eaten as soon as they are served, regardless of the image of the professor. While eating, you can add wine to yourself and drink a full glass of wine.
The expert whispered on the side: "Are we looking for the wrong person?" ”
Shen Yifan didn't answer, took the chopsticks and said, "Eat quickly!" Otherwise, there would be none. ”
In the end, three dishes were added, plus a pot of daughter red, and after that, the three of them were full of wine and food.
Yang Tianze picked his teeth with a toothpick and said with a little drunkenness: "What do you want to ask?" ”
The expert hurriedly said: "Fu Shanxiang! ”
Yang Tianze smiled and said, "This female champion? It is indeed a legendary woman in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. ”
When Yang Tianze was about to make a big talk, Shen Yifan asked, "We want to know if there is a tomb after her death?" ”
Yang Tianze was stunned for a moment, then slowly leaned over and asked, "Have you found her tomb?" ”
Yang Tianze waved his hand and said, "Go!" Go to my office. ”
The three of them returned to Jinling University and came to Yang Tianze's office.
It's better to say it's an office than a basement, with books piled up all over the floor, there's only one way to go, and there's a shabby couch in front of the desk, and there's nothing superfluous.
Yang Tianze didn't greet the two, just let them sit casually and take something to drink in the refrigerator.
Shen Yifan and the experts took a lot of effort to find an old-fashioned refrigerator behind a pile of books, opened it and saw that it was still water, the two smiled at each other and found a chair to sit down.
Yang Tianze found a manuscript in a large pile of books and said: "From many historical points, the fate of this female champion can be described as bumpy, and in the end, her whereabouts are unknown. But look at what is mentioned in this book. ”
Shen Yifan opened the manuscript, the content of the manuscript is a record of the follow-up record of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, the record mentions that a divine magic society was still very active in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, and although the founder of this divine magic society did not record the name, but the record mentioned that she was a woman, and a knowledgeable woman.
Shen Yifan looked at it and said, "If it is according to the above record, Fu Shanxiang should not be dead." Then why is the Anti-Qing Society she founded called the Divine Art Society? ”
Yang Tianze said: "Although the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was short-lived, one thing may be that you all know that after the fall of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, there were many anti-Qing associations, what kind of knife meetings; After the Monkey Society and the like, there were many such anti-Qing meetings, which lasted for a long time. ”
The expert said to himself: "Fu Shanxiang didn't create the Divine Art Society after he died, and finally buried in the tomb in advance? ”
Yang Tianze said: "Your question is very interesting. Fu Shanxiang had a rough life, lost his husband in his early years, and was almost sold into the Qinglou by his mother-in-law, and later took refuge in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and won the female champion, and was deeply valued by Yang Xiuqing. finally became Yang Xiuqing's concubine. He disappeared after the Tenkyo incident. It stands to reason that this woman should hate the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom very much, so why did she still establish a magic club to oppose the Qing Dynasty? And what is the origin of the name of the 'Divine Magic Society'? As he spoke, he took out a book with a yellowed cover from a pile of books and said: "This book was written by a historian during the Republic of China, and it put forward a point of view, that is, the so-called 'divine art' is the art of the five elements and gossip that we mentioned. From here, one thing can be concluded, that is, Fu Shanxiang's best skill is not literary but magic. ”
Shen Yifan had heard some incredible questions and asked, "Spells?" Does she have any opportunities? ”
Yang Tianze seemed to enter a state of excitement, and took out a copy from the row of bookshelves behind him, threw it to Shen Yifan, and said: "This is a family notebook, although it has not been published for a long time, but it records one thing. ”
The author of the note has nothing to do with Fu Shanxiang, but there is an incident recorded in the note that interests Shen Yifan. The journal records an experience of the author's ancestors.
The author of the notebook is surnamed Huang Dan and his name is a Jun, and his ancestor is called Huang Wenfeng was a treasurer of the Eastern King when he was in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, after the Tianjing Incident, this Huang Wenfeng fled from Tianjing with a batch of treasures, and rescued a woman who was seriously injured in the water on the way to escape.
They lived in this cave for more than two months, and in this cave they found many strange symbols, and the woman copied them down and studied them carefully.
Two months later, the Tianjing rebellion subsided, and the two dared to leave the cave, Huang Wenfeng and the woman left Tianjing and went north, and then the woman gave birth to a boy, and the woman left the book after giving birth.
In the letter, Fu Shanxiang, who claimed to be a female official of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, left a son for the Huang family in order to repay Huang Wenfeng for saving his life, and he had more important things to do, so he left. The letter also mentions that the symbols she copied in the cave are a kind of heavenly calligraphy, and she spent two years deciphering some of the fur and leaving some numbers for Huang Wenfeng, so that he must refer to these numbers when doing business.
Huang Wenfeng is indeed a little reluctant to lose a beautiful wife, but it can only be so far. Later, Huang Wenfeng began to do business on land, and each batch of business would be decided with reference to the figures given by Fu Shanxiang. Strange to say, every business goes very smoothly. Later, Huang Wenfeng married a wife and had children, and never mentioned this incident again.
Yang Tianze said: "Although there is nowhere to verify this matter, I boldly guess that Fu Shanxiang must have relied on those strange symbols to crack the Book of Heaven." The question is, what symbol did Fu Shanxiang find? ”
Shen Yifan and the experts had already understood at this time that Fu Shanxiang had started his research after getting some heavenly symbols, and had obtained some results, and in the end these results must have been brought into the tomb.
The tomb discovered because of the construction was actually a joint burial tomb built by Yang Xiuqing when he was in power and Fu Shanxiang, because of the Tianjing Incident, Fu Shanxiang was buried alone.
Shen Yifan told the experts about these ideas, and the experts also felt that it was very possible, and after Yang Tianze asked about Fu Shanxiang's tomb on the side, he suddenly looked through the cabinets to find something, and then found a roll of silk and said, "Maybe our guess is wrong." You see that this is a secret letter from Xiao Chaogui to Hong Xiuquan at that time, I think you are very interested. ”
Shen Yifan took the silk in surprise and looked at it, this was a letter written on the placket, and it looked like it was some years old. After Shen Yifan finished reading it, he said to himself: "It turns out that Fu Shanxiang has been studying the secret text of the Heavenly Kingdom. ”
The expert listened with some curiosity and asked, "What do you mean?" "Take the silk and look at it.
The silk mentions the things that Xiao Chaogui found in Beidou Mountain, and there is an original sentence on it, "The things of the Heavenly Father are set in Tianjing, and you must enter Beijing to visit", and the time of the payment should be when Hong Xiuquan has not yet attacked Jinling, and from this point it can be seen that Hong Xiuquan is very likely to attack Jinling for other reasons, will it be to find the location of the mysterious burial of Xuanwu.
On the way back, Shen Yifan has been thinking about a question, that is, why is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom called the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and is this Heavenly Kingdom closely related to the Heavenly Civilization that appeared in the clues they are looking for?
Shen Yifan asked the expert: "Do you say that this Hong Xiuquan's Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is directly related to the 'Heavenly Civilization' we are looking for?" ”
The expert said: "It's hard to say! I think it might be related. ”
Shen Yifan parked the car and got out of the car to smoke, and said while smoking, he seemed to be speaking to himself and to experts: "Xiao Chaogui has not appeared much in the history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and it is recorded in the early history of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom that he has died in battle. But one thing is very strange, Xiao Chaogui and Liu Quanxiu entered Beidou Mountain at the same time, but they didn't seem to have appointed Hong Xiuquan alone, so it should be Yang Xiuqing. Xiao Chaogui appointed Hong Xiuquan and Liu Quanxiu appointed Yang Xiuqing. At the beginning of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, it was a very united organization, and the later Tianjing Incident should not only be a struggle for power, it is possible that they all mastered something important in Jinling? Hong Xiuquan was anxious to get this thing, so he launched the Tianjing Incident. The strange thing is that at that time, the Heavenly King of the Southeast, Northwest and the Winged King Shi Dakai actually began to have disagreements after attacking Tianjing, and why did the Northern King still obey Hong Xiuquan's orders and lead troops into Tianjing to strangle the people of the Eastern King. ”
The expert said: "What do you mean is that Xiao Chaogui and Liu Quanxiu found the core secret of the Heavenly Kingdom civilization in Beidou Mountain, so the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom raised troops to invade Jinling, and everyone killed each other in order to get this secret?" ”
Shen Yifan took a deep breath of cigarette and said, "It is possible that Hong Xiuquan knew about the existence of the Heavenly Civilization from the beginning, so he had the courage to gather righteousness and rebel, and everyone was for the secret of the Heavenly Civilization. Dongwang may have cracked the secret one step earlier, and the key to cracking the secret may be on Fu Shanxiang. ”
The expert said: "It's a pity! Hong Xiuquan's 'Tianjing Incident' was faster than that of Dongwang, so this secret still fell on Hong Xiuquan's body, and Shi Dakai's departure may have taken away part of the secret, so Hong Xiuquan has not solved it when he died. ”
Shen Yifan then analyzed: "The Xuanwu mystery burial in Jinling has always been called the Jinling Heavenly King Burial. It is possible that Hong Xiuquan occupied the dove's nest and changed the Xuanwu mystery burial into his own mausoleum. ”
The expert said: "The time of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is very short, and it is impossible to build a mausoleum independently during the time of this regime, so where did Hong Xiuquan get in Dongwang is to open the clue to the mysterious burial of Xuanwu." Dongwang has a way to open the Xuanwu mystery burial, and it is possible that Fu Shanxiang cracked it? ”
Shen Yifan nodded and threw the cigarette away and said, "Go!" Go back to Fu Shanxiang's ancient tomb to have a look. ”
The car is gone, will there be news of the mysterious burial of Xuanwu in Fu Shanxiang's ancient tomb? Can there be the secrets that Shen Yifan and others need in the mysterious burial of Xuanwu?
