Wu Chengsi walked in the inner hall passage of the secretary province with an ugly face, he just got on duty and knew that the king of Nanchang rushed into the secretary prison when the palace door was just opened, and then acted with the dictation of the queen of heaven, no one knew what they wanted to do, and at this time Wu Chengsi had just left the Wu Benfang.

In front of it is the inner storehouse, two Jin Wuwei guards are guarding the door with knives, and several things are blocked outside the door, and they can't enter at all.

However, in front of the dense bookshelves inside, you can see the king of Nanchang standing in the front at a glance, and there are more Jin Wuwei who are rummaging inside.

Wu Chenghe's breathing suddenly became heavy.

The secretary has a treasury in the province, which stores the seals and iron coupons given by the emperors of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Sixteen Kingdoms of the North and the South, and even the former Sui and the present dynasty.

Although there are similar functions, there are also the History Museum, the Hongwen Museum, the Jixian Museum, the Chongwen Museum, the Inner Service Province, the Prince Department of Economic Affairs and other ministries, but the departments are useful and exist, and the useless ones are placed in the secretary province.

Seeing the king of Nanchang turn his head, Wu Chenghe's heart immediately became solemn, and the dissatisfaction in his heart was instantly washed away.

According to the Queen, it is absolutely impossible for the King of Nanchang to lie about this kind of thing.

False oracles are fatal.

Wu Chengsi stood still in front of the door of the Inner Treasury, and said solemnly to Li Xuan: "Chenghei has seen the king of Nanchang, I don't know what the prince came to the secretary province, if there is a need, the next official will do his best to help." ”

Li Xuan looked at Wu Chengsi with a respectful expression in a slightly surprised way, as far as he knew, although Wu Chenghei was not domineering, he was not a kind person, it was rare to be like this!

Waving his hand at Jin Wuwei at the door, Li Xuan's right hand picked up the hilt of the sword from his waist, and then bowed politely to Wu Chenghei: "The Duke of Zhou is polite, this king is here to find some of the seals and the back cover books of the emperor's ancestors. ”

Wu Chenghei subconsciously felt relieved, and then arched his hand and said: "I don't know what kind of seal the prince needs, this kind of thing, some of them exist in the history museum, and some of them exist in the Hongwen official and the internal service province, if there is a need, the lower official can accompany the prince to get it." ”

"No, you don't." Li Xuan shook his head, smiled bitterly, and said, "Among the divisions, the secretary province is the easiest to get these things. ”

The easiest, Wu Chengsi couldn't help but be stunned.

Without waiting for Wu Chengsi to react, more than a dozen Jin Wuwei in the crowd in front of him had already come to Li Xuan with a copy of the old holy decree in their hands, and then bowed down and said, "Lord Wang, they have all been found." ”

Li Xuan breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and then quickly put it away: "Return to the box, enter the palace." ”

In the blink of an eye, a Jin Wuwei stepped forward and used a black brocade box to put all a dozen holy decrees into the box.

Li Xuan turned around, looked at Wu Chenghe, and said with a solemn face: "Zhou Guogong, according to the rules, you have to go through the formalities, right?" ”

Wu Chengsi immediately came back to his senses and arched his hand at Li Xuan: "The prince wants to enter the palace?" ”

"Yes, this matter is urgent, and it needs to be reported to His Majesty and the Queen of Heaven immediately." Li Xuan looked at Wu Chenghe, suddenly understood, and immediately said: "Zhou Guogong, please go with you, this matter still needs Zhou Guogong to be present, please!" ”

Li Xuan turned around and nodded to the many Jin Wuwei behind him, and then walked quickly towards the door.

Li Xuan's footsteps were very fast, and as soon as Wu Chengsi was about to ask something, a group of Jin Wuwei had already followed Li Xuan and walked out quickly, holding back all Wu Chengsi's words.

Wu Chengsi glanced at the main book and records under his hand, waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and clean up and see what has been taken away." ”

After speaking, Wu Chengsi quickly followed, although his eyes were solemn, his expression was relaxed.

What the king of Nanchang wanted was some things from the period of Emperor Gaozu, and how useful those things were.

Wu Chengsi had just walked out of the secretary province, and then he saw that Li Xuan had already turned over and got on the horse, and he didn't wait for him to directly urge the horse away.

At this moment, a servant of the Martial Mansion was walking briskly from the side of the Royal Street.

Wu Chengsi glanced at it, the servant was the servant who delivered the news in the house, and when he saw that Wu Chengsi was turning over and getting on his horse, the servant immediately retreated to the side......

There is something, but it is okay to wait.

"Drive!" In the blink of an eye, Wu Chengsi had already led his guards towards Daming Palace quickly.

……

Wu Chengsi urged the horse to hurry up, but Li Xuan didn't wait for him at all, and when Wu Chengsi caught up, they had already arrived at the Danfeng Gate of Daming Palace, just right, Wu Chengsi saw that Ming Chongyan was already waiting outside the palace gate.

Before Wu Chengsi could open his mouth to inquire, a white-faced chamberlain in the palace had already walked out quickly, and when he saw Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan, he immediately bowed his head and said respectfully: "The sage has an edict: King of Nanchang, Shiyin Zhenren, see you in Zichen Palace." ”

"Minister Li Xuan, Ming Chongyan leads the order." Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan immediately gave up their hands, and then walked quickly towards the Daming Palace.

Wu Chengji was about to follow immediately, but he was stopped by Jin Wuwei, who was guarding the door.

"King of Nanchang, Shiyin Zhenren, and heirs, wait a minute!" Wu Chengsi immediately shouted at Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan.

Li Xuan suddenly paused, turned his head and glanced at Wu Chenghe, then suddenly came over, and then said a few words to the waiter.

The chamberlain immediately understood, and waved his hand at Jin Wuwei at the door, and Wu Chengsi was immediately released.

Wu Chengsi hurriedly caught up, and was just about to open his mouth to ask something, but when he saw Li Xuan and Ming Chongyan's solemn expressions, he couldn't speak.

……

In the Zichen Palace, Empress Wu and the Emperor sat on the throne of the palace steps, and Empress Wu held a book in her hand, frowning and reading carefully.

Li Xuan, Ming Chongyan, and Wu Chenghei entered, stood in the hall, and arched their hands at the same time: "Li Xuan, the young secretary of the Honglu Temple, Ming Chongyan, the right counselor, and Wu Chenghe, the secretary and supervisor, meet Your Majesty, meet the world, Your Majesty Wan'an, and the Queen of Heaven Wan'an." ”

"Get up." Li Zhi waved his hand slightly, then looked at Wu Chengsi with some strange eyes, and asked, "Why did the secretary and supervisor walk with the king of Nanchang and Shiyin Zhenren today?" ”

Wu Chengsi immediately bowed his hand and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the King of Nanchang went to the secretary and supervisor by order of the Queen of Heaven, and took away more than a dozen edicts from the period of Emperor Gaozu Taiwu, as well as the back cover book?" ”

"Oh?" Li Zhi immediately looked at Li Xuan and said, "King Nanchang, but last night's incident involved the secretary and supervisor. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Xuan immediately looked at Li Zhi with a solemn face, and then handed over the black brocade box on the ground.

Li Zhi raised his hand, and Wang Fulai immediately stepped forward, took off the black brocade box in Li Xuan's hand, and then quickly returned to Li Zhi's side.

put the brocade box in front of Li Zhi, and Wang Fulai opened the brocade box directly under the gaze of Li Zhi and Empress Wu.

Inside the brocade box is an old letter and a back cover book.

Li Zhi looked at Li Xuan with some surprise, frowned and asked, "King Nanchang, what is this?" ”

Although Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan has only reigned for nine years, in these nine years, the holy decrees issued every year are as vast as a sea of smoke, not to mention nine years, no matter how you say it, it should not only be a little bit in front of you.

Li Xuan took a step forward and arched his hand with a solemn face: "Back to Your Majesty, the Queen of Heaven, these are the Gaozu Edicts issued from Da'an Palace in the eighth year of Zhenguan, and the back cover book. ”

"Eight years of Zhenguan, Da'an Palace." Li Zhi's face suddenly became solemn, and the whole person immediately sat up straight, and then motioned to the Empress Wu on one side to help him open this holy decree.

Empress Wu did not dare to hesitate and immediately moved.

In May of the eighth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Gaozu collapsed in Da'an Palace.

Since the Xuanwumen Incident in the ninth year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu abdicated as Emperor Taishang and was placed under house arrest in Da'an Palace.

His words could not interfere with the operation of the DPRK and China, and the holy decrees he sent out were not heeded.

But the eight years of Zhenguan were different, that year, since Emperor Gaozu was ill, the imperial doctor had already concluded that he would not live for a few months.

So in that year, Gaozu Li Yuan issued a lot of holy decrees from Da'an Palace to the former ministers, comforting, chatting, and even rewarding.

There are also many young children left behind by him, and Emperor Taizong took them one by one after seeing them.

Now it is a critical moment to search for the king of the East China Sea, but now he suddenly pulled out the things of the eighth year of martial arts and the year of Gao Zu's death, which is too sensitive.

Could it be that Emperor Gaozu left behind some unknown edicts?

Empress Wu, the emperor, suddenly thought of this question.

Wu Chengsi and Ming Chongyan also thought of this, especially Wu Chengsi.

You must know that these things originally existed in the secretary province, if there is really any edict and Wu Chengji doesn't know, then he will be in big trouble.

Before Wu Chengsi could figure out whether this was really the case, on the imperial couch in front of him, the emperor's cold voice had already sounded: "Secretary and supervisor, what is going on?" ”

With a "bang", an old Gaozu edict was thrown at Wu Chenghe's feet.

Wu Chengsi subconsciously lowered his head, and suddenly saw a lot of Gaozu seals, some were missing a few words, and some were directly short of a sentence, more than a dozen Gaozu seals, seven or eight of them were like this, and Wu Chenghe, who saw this scene, was directly dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, Queen of Heaven, this matter ...... I really don't know about this! Wu Chengsi had already fallen to his knees in an instant, his face full of pain and guilt.

These are the Gaozu Edicts, the Ancestral Edicts of the Eight Years of Zhenguan, not to mention the present, even if they are placed in the Eight Years of Zhenguan, these things are not of much use.

Every year, the secretary of the province sorts out these things, just a glance at them, and they are sure that they are still there, who would have thought that someone would cut words from them.

Truncated words, the king of the East China Sea, the edict of Gaozu.

A flash of lightning instantly exploded in Wu Chenghe's mind, and he immediately leaned over to the ground and pleaded bitterly: "Everything is the fault of the minister, it is the negligence of the minister's management, and I also ask Your Majesty and the Queen of Heaven to condemn it." ”

Li Zhi's eyes were staring at Wu Chenghei, at this time, Empress Wu gently patted Li Zhi's arm, and said softly: "Your Majesty, this matter, let alone the heir, even the concubines never thought that anyone would do this, the heir was negligent, Your Majesty punished the crime, and now it is still necessary to figure out, whether these things were taken by the King of the East China Sea?" ”

Li Zhi nodded silently, then leaned back slightly, and closed his eyes slightly.

Empress Wu immediately looked at Li Xuan, frowned and asked, "King Nanchang, how did you think that the traitor would do this?" ”

"After returning to heaven, the minister also thought of it by chance." Li Xuan arched his hand and said with a slightly painful face: "The minister was outside the secret room at the time, and he had just sent people away to the palace for the twists and turns of last night's incident, but suddenly, it felt like someone was staring, staring at the minister with a particularly proud gaze. ”

"The secret room that enshrines the tablet of Emperor Gaozu, he specially let you discover it." Li Zhi immediately understood what Li Xuan meant, and at the same time followed up and said: "He is showing off to you, showing off to me, showing off that he has obtained the edict of the emperor's ancestor, but you and I don't know anything, King of Nanchang, did you think so at that time." ”

Li Xuan bowed heavily and said: "The minister is guilty, but other than that, the minister can't think of anything else, but the minister knows that there will never be any edict of Gaozu, so it can only be forged, and in the eighth year of Wude, Emperor Gaozu's writing, the easiest thing to get is in the secretary's prison." ”

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Wu Chenghe.
