After the completion of the edict ceremony, all the princes, emperors, grandsons, relatives, relatives or those with titles can go home to fast, and ministers and officials of various ministries and institutes also return to their yamen dormitories to stay and fast in groups, and are not allowed to go home. As for officials who are on business or idle in Beijing, they are arranged to fasting and staying at the royal post house outside the palace. After the expiration of the seven-day fasting period, civil and military officials can return home, but they are not allowed to have fun, and mourning and marriage activities are prohibited. The soldiers and civilians of Longcheng were to take off their crowns and wear plain clothes for twenty-seven days, and they were not allowed to marry for one month, not to have fun for one hundred days, not to slaughter for forty-nine days, and not to pray or make sacrifices for twenty-seven days. Before the service is removed, the document ticket is intended to be printed with a blue pen, and the document is printed with blue ink.

The court meeting dispersed, Hong Chengqi walked out of the palace gate alone with a complicated mood, and several ministers who were familiar with him on weekdays did not come over as eagerly as usual, and everyone avoided it, as an old fritter who was mixed with officialdom, how could he not see that Hong Chengqi was afraid that he had fallen out of favor, and the emperor did not even give him a minister who cared for his life. Now that the crown prince, who has always been at odds with him, succeeds to the throne, it is conceivable how much repression he will suffer, and it is not even known how much he will be exterminated.

Hong Chengqi walked through the long road, his thoughts were full of thoughts, and the palace was full of white clothes, but the sad atmosphere of the death of the emperor did not seem to be so strong.

"Hey... Hong Chengqi sighed slightly, and looked back at the palace gate deeply before leaving.

Outside the palace gate, a quaint double-wheeled carriage waited quietly in place, and the housekeeper Peng Bo saw Hong Chengqi leaving the palace from a distance and immediately greeted him: "Master, be careful of your step." Peng Bo whispered as he helped Hong Chengqi, who was a little trembling, to get into the car.

The carriage slowly started and drove towards the western suburbs of Longcheng, because Hong Chengqi had a knighthood, so he had to avoid going to the royal post house to fast and stay. The carriage he was riding in was specially made by the Ministry of Industry, which not only had a good shock absorption effect but also had good defensive power, and the carriage smoothly went up the rugged mountain road in the western suburbs, and returned to the Wuhou Mansion in a short time.

"Sir, it's here. Outside the carriage came the voice of the butler Pember.

Hong Chengqi opened his tired eyes slightly, pushed the car door and got out of the car, and dozens of people were already waiting outside the Wuhou Mansion to greet him, among which Hong Yun was impressively in the ranks.

"I've seen my uncle!" Hong Yun saw Hong Chengqi get out of the car, and immediately stepped forward quickly and supported him.

Hong Chengqi glanced at everyone, and his only son, Hong Wende, was still not in the crowd of greetings. He hadn't seen this son for weeks, and he couldn't help but shake his head, knowing that this naughty son must have been messing around with his fox friends again. Hong Chengqi looked at his nephew beside him and felt sorry for a while, how good it would be if Hong Yun and Hong Wende swapped.

"Uncle, watch your step. Hong Yun softly reminded Hong Chengqi, who was a little distracted, to cross the threshold, and a large group of maids and maids followed the two of them into the door.

"Yun'er, help me to the study. ”

"Obey!" Hong Yun's face was overjoyed, and he respectfully helped Hong Chengqi to walk towards the study.

The two entered the study and sat down, Hong Chengqi coughed lightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and asked seemingly casually: "Yun'er, have you heard of the edict ceremony of the DPRK and China today?"

Hong Yun hesitated a little but nodded: "The little nephew has heard a little. ”

"What do you think about this matter?" Hong Chengqi had the intention to test him.

Hong Yun frowned slightly, and after some consideration, he said: "According to the emperor's favor and respect for his uncle, it is impossible for his uncle to have a place among the ministers. ”

"But I have seen the edict with my own eyes, and it is indeed written by the former emperor himself, and there is absolutely no possibility of falsification. Hong Chengqi stared at Hong Yun with burning eyes and asked again.

"According to what the little nephew saw, someone must have slandered in front of the emperor. ”

Hong Chengqi nodded approvingly: "That's right, there is indeed such a possibility." So, you know what went wrong. ”

Hong Yun's face changed, and he hurriedly got up and said, "The little nephew doesn't know, and I ask my uncle to make it clear." ”

Hong Chengqi smiled slightly: "Do you remember when I ordered you to go to Ningdu Mansion to search for the Shusheng Scroll?"

Hong Yun was a little embarrassed when he heard this: "The little nephew is incompetent. ”

Hong Chengqi waved his hand: "It's okay, I have already won the scholar's picture scroll." As soon as he spoke, he picked up a letter and handed it to Hong Yun and said, "This secret agent of the inner mansion has no impression?"

"But the one I led someone to raid the house and arrest him?"

"That's right, it's this person!" Hong Chengqi said in a deep voice: "This person still has some ability, someone once saw him appear at the main altar of the Weiwu Sect with members of the Kamikaze Gang. ”

"What?" Hong Yun's face changed greatly when he heard this, and he fell to his knees with a thud, muttering, "Could it be that Chaoyang is a real person?"

"On the eve of the death of the first emperor, only the emperor Chaoyang Zhenren has been with him, and only he has the opportunity to speak to the first emperor. ”

Hong Yun scratched his head in annoyance: "I didn't expect to be run away by him!"

"Don't worry, our purpose is to get the scroll of the Holy Scroll. Hong Chengqi laughed: "Don't be the identity of the minister." ”

"Uncle, with all due respect, this scroll is nothing more than some exercises and treasures, and in your identity, these things are nothing more than things outside your body. ”

"Hahaha!" Hong Chengqi laughed loudly and pointed at Hong Yun: "You, you, do you really think that this holy picture scroll is just as rumored?"

"Could it be that there is another mystery hidden in this holy picture scroll?"

Hong Chengqi finally got his hands on the Shusheng Picture Scroll this time, and he was in a very happy mood: "In fact, this Shusheng Picture Scroll does not mark the location of the treasure, but alludes to the place of Feng Shui treasure. ”

"The little nephew is dull, what is the treasure of feng shui?"

Hong Chengqi stood up and walked to the window, as if he was remembering something, and after a long time, he raised his head and said: "What kind of person is the calligraphy saint Dongfang Yikong, most of his calligraphy works have been lost and destroyed in more than 500 years of inheritance, only this "Picture of the Red Sun of the Rivers and Mountains" is one of the few surviving works of the world, how can this picture scroll only hide such mundane things as gold and silver treasures?"

On the surface, it is only the four common scenes of mountains, rivers, trees, and red sun, but in fact what he wants to express is the meaning of Longxing. ”

"What does it mean to be a dragon?"

"The dragon vein is the foundation of a country, the east is an empty insight into the heavens, peeping through but not saying that it is broken, it must be that he passed through Ningdu Mansion to see that there is a dragon xing here, so he drew the "Red Sun Map of the Mountains and Rivers". ”

Hong Yun showed an excited look on his face: "Uncle, where is the specific location of this Longxing Land?"

Hong Chengqi stroked his beard and smiled: "I have already found the general direction of this Longxing land, and the subordinates sent out will be rewarded in a few days." ”
