noon

The shogunate was exceptionally quiet

Si Nanyu walked out of Guozhang's house, and then flew over the roof and left in style.

No one knew he was here, and no one knew what he had taken with him.

When he came to a tavern room, he proudly said to the people in the room: "I told you that he will never carry a real talisman with him, see if I am right?" ”

Su Qiyu put away the talisman handed over by Si Nanyu, smiled and nodded in agreement: "Yes, how do you know where he put the real talisman?" ”

Si Nanyu shook his right hand, and the folding fan in his hand opened with the movement.

He slapped the fan twice and replied: "He has had a habit of hiding things since he was a child, and when he was a child, his father gave him fun things, and he was afraid that I would hide it if I broke it, but I could always find it unintentionally, and this time it was just luck." ”

Su Qiyu carefully looked at the talisman in his hand and confirmed that this was exactly the same as the one in Jiang Li's painting.

"You said that the talisman on Si Nanlin's body is fake, so who can tell the truth of the talisman at a glance?"

Si Nanyu shook his head and replied: "This is going to ask Jiang Li, such an important thing should not be easily imitated, it should be useful to ask him, and I took the fake one you handed over to me and compared it, I can't see the difference just by looking at the appearance, and the difference is so subtle that it could have been ignored." ”

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, I'll help you when everything here is over."

Si Nanyu rolled his eyes: "Get you, go back to work, that little girl is still waiting for you." ”

Su Qiyu didn't stay for long, left the tavern and went straight to Luo's house.

Father Luo was now being dragged by Jiang Li to study how to return to the palace, and when he saw Su Qiyu coming, Jiang Li hurriedly beckoned him to his side.

"Master Su, you came just in time, come here."

"What? Looking for me? ”

Jiang Li directly stepped forward and pulled Su Qiyu to his side, pointed to the map on the table and said, "Su Gongzi, look, this is the map of the palace, I am studying with Mr. Luo how to go inside to the court and unmask Murong Lian and Guozhang." ”

Su Qiyu glanced at the map, the traces of paper and pen and ink were new, and there was a pen and ink inkstone next to it, and there was ink in the inkstone that had not been used up.

"Is this the map you just made?"

"That's right, I just finished drawing it, and there is no deviation, just like the actual situation in the palace."

As he spoke, he pointed to a place marked with a circle on the drawing: "Look here, there is a tunnel that connects to the tunnel that leads to my dormitory. ”

Su Qiyu looked novel, and asked with raised eyebrows: "There is actually an authentic authenticity, it's the first time I've seen it." ”

Jiang Li explained on the side: "The palace is full of dangers, so the emperors of the past have left a place for themselves that no one can find, so that they can hide from assassins and store things. ”

"So the emperor still has a place that even the queen doesn't know? What's in there? ”

Su Qiyu had long known where the Jiangli Underground Palace was located, and where did he bring the three of them out with the ice coffin.

Jiang Li was stunned: "Uh...... Inside...... It's nothing, Su Gongzi can naturally see it when he goes. ”

If it was just a few ordinary corpses, Jiang Li would not be so nervous, but it was the former Beizhao Imperial Family lying inside, and he couldn't find a suitable reason not to make people reverie.

Su Qiyu nodded lightly: "Actually, I came here this time because I wanted to ask the emperor, since the emperor can draw the appearance of the soldier talisman, can we imitate the original soldier talisman and make one?" Or what if someone made a fake talisman to distract everyone? ”

Jiang Li smiled bitterly and shook his head: "No, it's not as simple as you think.

The talisman has a special texture, which is carved from thousand-year-old blood jade, and has been transformed by many craftsmen, so that the blood jade hides its own blood red. It is only when it encounters water that it will appear a fresh red color, and the white color will melt with the water, and at first glance it will look like a few drops of blood have been dripped into the water. You say, who else can do this kind of craftsmanship with the fake? ”

Su Qiyu touched his chin, pondered for a moment and then asked, "Does the prince know about this?" ”

"I didn't tell him or Murong Lian, but all the generals who obeyed the orders of the soldiers knew about this matter, and they should not be able to hide it." It was precisely because he knew this, after thinking about it for the comfort of Murong Lian's child, the talisman handed over to the national zhang was a token that could really summon thousands of troops.

I don't know if anyone has taken refuge in Guozhang Jiangli now, so I'm even more uncertain if Guozhang knows about this.

Father Luo said on the side: "In this way, things are really not easy to handle. ”

"Therefore, I was just discussing with Mr. Luo, and quietly sneaked into the palace to take out the jade seal, and when the time comes, I will come forward directly in the early dynasty, and I will be able to have the bargaining chips against the national master."

Su Qiyu raised his eyebrows: "Dare to ask the emperor, are there any soldiers under your command?" ”

"I have a team of dead soldiers, and the prince can't take them away."

"How many?"

"More than two hundred."

"More than 200 people, how can they defeat the thousands of troops and horses after the call of the soldiers? Your Majesty, the ability of the soldier is so powerful, I am afraid it is not enough to confront the national ruler. ”

Jiang Li also fell into contemplation, facing the issue of rights, it has been a difficult problem in Nansheng since ancient times.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Su Qiyu continued: "Besides, once the prince of the country has won the hearts of most of the people in the court, even if the emperor holds the jade seal, he will be forced to retreat by them together, do you really want to do this?" ”

"This ...... It's still Su Gongzi's thoughts, it's that I think too simply, let me think about it again. ”

Su Qiyu nodded: "Then the grass people will go back first, if the emperor thinks of any ideas, let Luo Shushu send someone to inform the grass people." ”

He didn't mean to let people notify him directly, but to have a Vena book in between.

Jiang Li was unhappy for a while, but he couldn't show it, now was the time when he needed Su Qiyu, and he couldn't turn his face yet, so he had to hold back the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Su Qiyu turned a corner on the way back and came to Luo Shushu's room.

"Zimeng, are you there?"

Cangzimeng's voice came from the room: "Come in." ”

Cangzimeng was embroidering, and he had nothing to do to pass the time, and after Su Qiyu came in, he put down the things in his hand.

"What's wrong?"

"Jiang Li just talked to me about something, there is a secret passage in the palace leading to his palace, if I understand correctly, it should be the place that connects to the Ice Palace, I want to go to it, you can take this and keep it."

As he spoke, he took out the talisman he had been carrying with him and handed it to Cangzi Meng.

Cangzi Meng took a look at this jade that was milky white and carved into a coiled dragon, and asked, "What is this?" ”

Su Qiyu stretched her head to her face and whispered two syllables in her ear: "Bing, Fu." ”

Cang Zimeng's hand holding the talisman tightened suddenly: "You took this away, won't Si Nanlin find out?" ”

"It's okay, we put a similar one, it doesn't matter if you find it." According to the drawings drawn by Jiang Li and the dictation of a general who had seen the talisman, Su Qiyu made a similar one for Si Nanyu to put in. Probably the only noticeable difference is that there is no change after encountering the water.

"Okay, you go, I'll go down and see Dai Yin."

Dai Yin has not appeared in the Zailuo family because she is following Yan Mingjiu.

Yan Mingjiu was preparing to give Nan Sheng a fatal blow, and at the same time, he was tired of revealing Cangzimeng's identity. Cangzi Meng simply let Dai Yin go over directly after coming out of the palace, even if it can't help a lot, at least it can be used for many more hours.

So not long after Su Qiyu left, Cangzimeng put away the talisman and went to the place where he made an appointment with Dai Yin.

In the eyes of today's Cangzi Meng, the talisman is a delicately carved stone.

In any case, she would never have imagined that it would not be long before this stone, which could summon thousands of troops and make countless heroes bend their waists, would become the thing she hated the most.

The place where the appointment was made was a small teahouse, and there was a stick of incense at a distance from Luo's house, and Dai Yin was already waiting there when she passed.

"It's been a long wait."

Dai Yin shook her head: "The slave maid has just arrived, Miss go sit down and have a cup of tea first." ”

Cangzi Meng heard her call herself Miss, and looked at Dai Yin's eyes with a kind of teachable satisfaction: "Yes, this time it's the right call." ”

Dai Yin complied with the answer, and her tone was slightly helpless: "It's not that Miss taught it well, and the slave and maid will already divide the occasion." ”

followed Dai Yin to the attic of the teahouse, Cangzi Meng sat down and took the hot tea handed by Dai Yin. Along the way, the mouth is really a little dry, and the tea is just right if it is tepid or not hot.

"This is last year's tea, and it wasn't put away." After taking a sip, Cangzi Meng put down the teacup and said so.

Dai Yin scratched her head apologetically: "I'm sorry, Miss, the slave maid will personally choose a better one next time." ”

Cangzimeng replied with a smile: "It's okay, I'm just by the way, and I didn't come here specifically to taste tea." Tell me what you've been doing these days. ”

"Okay young lady, the slave maid stayed by Childe's side during this time, and in fact, she didn't do anything useful, that is, Childe occasionally asked the slave maid to help buy something, or ask Miss Slave what she liked."

Dai Yin was very ashamed to say it, Cang Zimeng asked her to go to Yan Mingjiu's side to help as much as she could, but she seemed to have nothing to do in the past few days, and she didn't help anything.

"yes, what exactly is he asking?"

"For example, when I come back for dinner at night, I suddenly turn around and ask Miss Slave what fabric and color she likes, or when I am about to go out in the morning, I specially ask Miss if she has any favorite small objects and jewelry patterns."

Dai Yin heard Nianbai say that it was not easy for Yan Mingjiu to go out and do things, so she didn't understand that Yan Mingjiu went out to do such a difficult thing, why did she have to come to herself to ask Miss about her preferences?

Cangzimeng couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart, and continued to ask: "What is he asking for?" ”

"The slave doesn't know, and I don't see what he brought with him when he came back."

So he asked Cangzimeng about his preferences, but he didn't buy back what Dai Yin said, so it can be seen that he didn't want to prepare a gift for Cangzimeng.

Cangzimeng dragged his cheeks and pouted, his face was full of loss, but he stubbornly changed the topic to another place.

"Forget that, let's finally see me and tell me how it is? What progress is going on in the palace? ”
