Volume 1, Young as Zhiyun Chapter 111, The Palace Under the Bright Moon
The Dayu Imperial Court was established less than a hundred years ago, and what the Tang Kingdom lacked was not only the heritage, but also the history.
The Tang Kingdom has not fallen for thousands of years, and the key to it is the toughness of the wrist.
It is rumored that most of the sects in Dongzhou are now in Zhongzhou, and the old sites of the previous sects are in Zhongzhou, and even the Daomen are in the old site of Zhongzhou Qingshan, which is called Zhongzhou orthodoxy.
During the millennium, in the face of the Tang State's tough methods and strong army, the relationship between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes has always been very stable. Of course, this kind of stability is made by the court as the king and the sect as the support.
However, the world knows that the Tang Emperor disappeared from the world a hundred years ago, and he doesn't know where he went. The Tang Dynasty lost its deer, the dragons had no leader, and at that time, the internal worries and government had become a disaster, and the orthodox imperial power had completely collapsed. Because of dissatisfaction with the eunuchs, the princes and kings of all walks of life will compete to be the first to raise troops, and the Jianghu sects will take the opportunity to loot on a large scale, the world will be in chaos, and the people will not be able to make a living.
This period of history is the era of the Jin Ge Iron Horse for the princes and generals. But for the people, it was an era of broken families and displacement.
After more than ten years of competition, the world finally calmed down, and Dayu was unified and inherited the Tang Dynasty. During this period, there was a major event that directly affected the pattern of today. That is, Emperor Dayu Taizu couldn't bear the people being looted by the sect, and the thieves were in charge, and finally raised troops angrily regardless of the infamy of the rivers and lakes, and stepped on the rivers and lakes.
As everyone knows, Dayu finally inherited Datang. Among them, most of the ruins, history, heritage, and folk customs are similar, but the emperor changed his name, and the territory lost the northwest wasteland and the frozen soil of Liaodong, a total of one-third.
In addition to the support of the people, the most precious heritage is the treasure house of the Tang Dynasty.
All the treasures accumulated by the Tang Dynasty for thousands of years, whether they are rare treasures or divine weapons, whether they are recorded in the collection or rumored in the rivers and lakes, they may be found from it. Moreover, it is rumored that Emperor Taizu of Dayu put all the martial arts cheats looted from various sects into the treasure house after stepping on the rivers and lakes, making the real treasures in them more than doubled.
In other words, there are thousands of years of Tang Dynasty and the Jianghu Sect of the Tang Dynasty in the Dayu Treasure House, so it is impossible to imagine how many treasures there are in it.
After stepping on the rivers and lakes, almost all the world's first-class sects left Zhongzhou and established another sect in Dongzhou. Most of the sect secrets were collected by the imperial court, and it is difficult to trace them. There are many sects with shallow backgrounds that have completely disappeared into the rivers and lakes after stepping on the rivers and lakes this time.
This is also why, when Da Yu released the top four of the Hidden Dragon Test to enter the treasure house of Da Yu, almost all the sects in the world except the Sword Sect came to participate. Because the Sword Sect has never established a sect in Zhongzhou, let alone being trampled on the rivers and lakes. However, the three major sects such as the Snow Mountain Sect, the Daomen, and the Wuwu Temple have all lost something more or less because of this.
Over the years, no one knows how many actions these sects have done in private, how many plates they have used, and they have tried their best to get back what they lost, but the treasure house of Dayu has always been in the imperial city.
This time the Qianlong test decided to open the treasure house of Dayu, on the one hand, because His Majesty the Emperor himself is a Ming monarch known for his benevolence and righteousness, and secondly, because this can show my Dayu's magnanimity. The third is a more obscure point, with the continuous strengthening of the sect's power, Da Yu is too far-fetched to fight the whole world by himself.
...........
In the evening, in the twilight, a carriage slowly stopped in front of the palace. Bai Jiu and Tang Chun walked down one after another, and finally Ouyang Luo got out of the car.
The palace was full of people before, near were the young disciples of various academies and sects, and in the distance were still the people who came to see the excitement, and the pursuit of the excitement of the citizens of Yong'an City was never affected by the time and place.
Watching the three people of Qingfeng Yuan get out of the carriage, especially when they saw Bai Jiu, the people's discussion suddenly became louder, and the young children who heard the voice looked for prestige, and the expressions on their faces also changed slightly.
There is no cloud and no rain tonight, the cool breeze is cool, and the bright moon is still hanging in the sky.
A total of 30 contestants in the top three of the Qianlong test will participate in the feast held by Emperor Taizong in Daming Hall, singing and drinking, and then stay in the palace for the night, and can only leave the next day.
The top four contestants were not allowed to participate in the feast, and there were special envoys waiting in the palace, and when the time came, they would be taken to the inner palace of the imperial city, where it was rumored that the treasure house of Dayu was located.
That's why, when those young people look for prestige, the look on their faces will be a little unnatural.
You can take the same thing with you in the treasure trove of Dayu for a night of time, enough for you to choose carefully, but more of a matter depends on your chances.
Soon, more carriages came from a distance and stopped outside the palace gates.
The carriage of the Heavenly Chosen Courtyard stopped closer to the Qingfeng Courtyard, the curtain was lifted, and Lu Yuchen jumped down from it first, and then Mo Kai, who was dressed neatly, walked down from inside.
Lu Yu walked over and hammered Bai Jiu's chest hard, and said, "You can hammer it now." ”
Bai Jiu took a step back in pain, and said with a wry smile: "Then you are too hard." ”
Lu Yu leaned over and said softly: "Tonight, we will drink wine, eat meat, listen to songs and dances, and you will have to conduct a tangled search in the cold Dayu treasure house." Why don't we change it? ”
Bai Jiu smiled, no longer paying attention to this somewhat nervous Lu Yu Gongzi, but walked to Mo Kai's side.
Mo Kai had never worn such neat clothes, maybe someone had explained, or maybe he was afraid of wrinkles, and his walking posture was far less than before, but he was very cautious, even restrained.
Bai Jiu couldn't help but smile when he looked at his ugly walking posture, and said: "Clothes are going to be old sooner or later, you can't make a little etiquette when you walk like this, and even others will laugh at you." ”
Mo Kai scratched the back of his head with a smile and asked, "Then what should I do?" When you go out, someone tells you to walk slowly, which is polite. ”
Bai Jiu said: "Tonight we are going to the Dayu Treasure House, not to attend the banquet, just go casually, how comfortable to come." ”
Mo Kai nodded, stretched out his hand and lowered his head to braided his trouser legs.
Bai Jiu hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it, and said, "How can you weave clothes when you walk well?" In addition to this, just walk normally. ”
After saying this, Bai Jiu's expression suddenly became a little apologetic, and he asked, "How is your injury?" ”
Mo Kai raised his head to look at him, smiled sincerely, and said, "The dean helped me heal my injuries last night, and now it's out of the way." ”
Bai Jiu didn't say a word, and stretched out his hand and put it on Mo Kai's shoulder.
A faint breath slowly flowed into Mo Kai's body, like a warm spring breeze, blowing through his body.
Bai Jiu was shocked and speechless.
Divine consciousness flowed in, he couldn't feel any damage to Mo Kai's body, and even the flow rate of true qi in the meridians was higher than usual, it was obvious that Mo Kai was right, his injuries had all been repaired, and his cultivation had improved. Moreover, at this time, Mo Kai seems to have reached some kind of opportunity to break the realm.
Wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and sure enough, battle is the best way to improve.
Bai Jiu asked, "Do you have anything you want?" ”
Mo Kai scratched his head, thought for a moment, and said, "Actually, I thought about it a long time ago, find a good elixir, and I will return it to Chu Xinyun." ”
Bai Jiu was stunned for a moment, and said with some surprise: "There are many more valuable things in the Dayu Treasure House than this. ”
Mo Kai knew what Bai Jiu wanted to express, he smiled innocently and said, "Some things always have to be repaid, I don't want to owe anything to others." ”
Bai Jiu shook his head and said, "Right or wrong, it depends on how to do it, if this matter is put on me, I don't have a good choice." ”
Mo Kai asked, "What about you?" Looking for something? ”
Bai Jiu scratched his head a little tangled, and said, "I haven't thought about it yet, let's go in and have a look." ”
The night is getting darker, and the night breeze is gentle.
Tianyu and Qingyuan have also arrived.
The four of them gathered, and the chief eunuch who had been waiting there for a long time came over, and after talking in a low voice, after some precautions not to run around, not to make loud noises, and not to talk nonsense, he took the four of them and walked towards the depths of the palace.
There are countless halls in the palace, and Bai Jiu doesn't know everyone, not only him. Tianyu and Qingyuan came here for the first time, not to mention Mo Kai, the four of them were led by the eunuch leader in this way, and slowly walked towards the depths.
The deeper you go into the palace, the quieter it is, and it can even be said to be cold, the palace maids and eunuchs who can occasionally be seen before can no longer see a person, and the sound of ritual music in the Daming Hall in the distance is becoming more and more faint, as if it has become the sound of another world, until it finally disappears completely, and there is silence.
The chief eunuch quietly departed at some point, followed by a young man in armor.
Bai Jiu saluted the four of them, and the man returned the salute calmly, and the only quiet around him was the sound of clothes rubbing and the slight sound of armor colliding.
No one spoke, and the crowd moved on.
After a while, passing through a neat marble avenue, a tall building appeared in everyone's field of vision.
It was the Moon Observatory, the highest place in Yong'an City.
Everyone was surprised, because the legendary treasure house of Dayu was in the moon platform, which was too unbelievable.
However, the young man in armor stood there for a long time, and then led the group into the distance.
Eyes turned back and forth, and from time to time they crossed a stone bridge, and everyone came to a Bitan.
The pool looked unusually bright in the bright moonlight, and the reflection in the water was even more visible, like a new sky.
Just when everyone was attracted by the clear water of the lake, suddenly, for no reason, the mirror-like surface of the lake suddenly rippled violently.
From the depths of the pool, it was like a rumbling roar through the pool, echoing leisurely.
The young man frowned, stopped lingering too long, and turned to lead the group away.
Then, back and forth, the people wandered around the palace for a long time, stopping at one of the halls from time to time, and the young people would always stop for a while and then leave again.
No one knew what the point was, no one asked, and even everyone was breathing a lot softer.
Finally, the man took Bai Jiu and the four of them to a corner of the palace, the low old house was attached to the wall of the imperial city, the vermilion was crawling with cyan plants, and there were even a few places where there were several red flowers.
The house looked very old, the door frames and the window heads, were covered with dust, and even under the corners of the city walls, there were dead leaves that had accumulated from the past, and the whole place, when asked, had a damp musty smell.
The young man in armor walked up to the room and gently pushed the door open.
Then he stood aside, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and said, "There are still nearly four hours until dawn. ”
