It was only at this time that Chu Yunfei began to believe those rumors: about the recent changes in the palace. It is said that the emperor summoned the descendant disciple of Yu Hao, who is known as the "reincarnation of Luban", a few months ago. Outsiders thought that the emperor invited them to rebuild the harem, but in fact it was for another purpose. Who is Yu Hao? Maybe most people don't know, but when it comes to the iron tower in the east of Bianliang City, I'm afraid that few people don't know, and that is Yu Hao's masterpiece. Although everyone said that the children of the Yu family were famous for their carpentry, Chu Yunfei knew very well what they were capable of: the setting of organs and the dexterous carpentry skills. Just like the traps around the tower that can hide a thousand elite soldiers, ordinary people will never be able to see where they are, but when necessary, it is a wonderful place to take refuge. Even Ouyang Xiu was amazed by the exquisite craftsmanship of the Yu family, especially for Yu Hao, who was already old, saying that he was "just a carpenter since the dynasty". However, Master Ouyang is a sour literati, so naturally he has never seen the ingenious mechanism made by the Yu family with his own eyes, if he saw it with his own eyes, what would he know?

Judging from the mechanism in front of him, it seems simple, if he doesn't go in and out of here often, it is absolutely impossible to find it easily, and when the ladder slowly falls from the air, it makes Chu Yunfei even more nervous inexplicably, but when he thinks of the Yu family's craftsmanship, his heart quickly relaxes. But the emperor seemed to have been accustomed to such a situation, and climbed up the ladder. And although Chu Yunfei had many questions in his heart, he could only follow the emperor and follow the ladder to the second floor.

didn't have time to appreciate the unique cave here, as well as the countless treasures hidden inside, the emperor took him straight into a secret room on the second floor, walked through the dark stairs, and when he saw the light outside again, Chu Yunfei was surprised to find that he had reached the third floor. Chu Yunfei praised the exquisite layout here, and although the emperor was silent, he obviously had a little pride in his eyes.

"You're the first to come here. The outside is spread like a god, and there seems to be countless riches hidden inside. Now you see, it's just an ordinary room, just a few unusual things. To me, it seems to outsiders to be a rare treasure, but I am just an ordinary object. It is precisely because of this that I will choose a night pearl as a gift to the Empress Dowager of Da Liao. Women, after all, still like these things, and only by doing what they like can we achieve the goal I want. The emperor said lightly the doubts in his heart, but his footsteps never stopped.

Could this be the reason why the emperor gave the Empress Dowager Liao the Night Pearl? Just a few sentences that are so frivolous to explain? Chu Yunfei couldn't hide his curiosity. But there are some things that can't be said clearly in front of the emperor, and he smiled slightly: "It's just that outsiders may not be able to understand the emperor's thoughts." After all, not all people can be like the emperor, who can sit on the wealth of the world and the treasures of the four seas. This is also the envy of others. That's why the pearl of the night will be coveted. Isn't the emperor surprised by those rumors? ”

It really doesn't take much effort to talk to smart people. The emperor stopped in front of a square box, looked back at Chu Yunfei, his face was a little more helpless, and he couldn't help but sigh: "I have also heard some rumors. It is said that some people think that the night pearl is a symbol of national fortune, and because of this, the Liao State will agree to reconcile the two countries. Because of this, since they represent the fortune of the country, those righteous people are absolutely unwilling to watch the Night Pearl enter the state. The theft of the Night Pearl seems to be reasonable. Such rumors...... I really don't know what to say, but in the eyes of those people, I must be a fool to give away such a treasure. ”

"The emperor is a generous person, and for the emperor, the night pearl is just a small gift." Chu Yunfei spoke at the right time, he was not a non-political person, and he knew a little about big and small things at home and abroad. These rumors are getting louder and louder, and it will inevitably make him mumble in his heart. "Actually, the emperor doesn't have to worry about such a trivial matter. If you just use a night pearl, you can exchange the world for peace, and the people will no longer suffer from war, which is a very worthwhile thing. It's just the people of the world...... may not really understand the emperor's painstaking efforts, but just take it for granted to impose his own ideas on the emperor's head. ”

"I really didn't misread you, you are my bosom friend." The emperor looked at Chu Yunfei with some gaffe, and there was a little more excitement in his eyes, but he quickly restrained that emotion, "It's just that except for you, most of them still regard me as an incompetent faint king, even if they win the battle, they still have to make peace with Fanbang." ”

"One day, they will understand the emperor's painstaking efforts. Although the emperor has compassion for the heavens and people, he may not be able to be understood by the people of the world. But as the master of the world, it is inherently lonely. Chu Yunfei lightly spit out these words from his mouth.

Sometimes comfort doesn't have to be a lot of rambling. In the quiet room, the two men looked at each other for a moment before smiling indifferently. The emperor took out a key from his body, opened the box in front of him, and then took out a brocade box from inside. The emperor opened the empty locket and handed it to Chu Yunfei, and sighed: "What was originally lying here should be the priceless night pearl. But now it's gone. ”

Chu Yunfei didn't realize an astonishing fact until this time: the Night Pearl disappeared in the box, and the person who stole the Night Pearl didn't even take the box with him. Why? Is it for the sake of convenience? Or is there any particular reason? He took the box: "The key to this box, who else can access it except the emperor?" ”

"Except for me, only my queen has the key to this box, because the collection here is the treasure that the emperor rewarded when I was the prince, and this box ...... It was the queen who asked someone to build it, there are only two keys, and this one of mine has never left me, and the queen has never stepped into the treasure pavilion. But I've heard that this lock is unusual, but those who are clever can still open it with a little effort. If I had guessed that the Night Pearl would be stolen, I wouldn't have put it here anyway, but I would have put it in my study, facing it day and night, and I wouldn't have lost it. The emperor's face was a little more sad.
