Although the female Taoist priest Xie Ying wanted them to stay in the Yuexia Mountain Villa for the time being, Li Zhen and Di Yan insisted on returning to the inn.

When they returned to the inn, it was already two watches, Li Zhen sent Di Yan to the door of her room, and smiled at her: "Take care of your spirits, let's go to the underground palace tomorrow night for an adventure." ”

Di Yan was a little worried, "Brother Li, I always feel that things are not so simple. ”

"I also have a lot of puzzles that I can't solve, but at least they don't want to kill us, all the mysteries are left for tomorrow night to solve, I'm too lazy to think about it, let's rest!"

Di Yan nodded silently, "You can also rest." ”

She slowly closed the door, Li Zhen took a few steps, and then stopped hesitantly, looking back at her door, these Di Yan's doors slowly opened again, the two looked at each other, Di Yan glared at him fiercely.

Li Zhen went back to his room and got into the quilt, he was so tired that he didn't even take off his shoes, so he fell asleep

Li Zhen slept until noon the next day, when he slowly opened his eyes, he saw Di Yan sitting beside him, she had changed back into women's clothes, wearing a light green undergarment, wearing a pomegranate skirt underneath, her arms wrapped around red silk, combing a double-ring bun, and a jasper hairpin inserted obliquely.

Seeing that she was holding a needle and thread in her hand, and she was engrossed in sewing and mending her headscarf, Li Zhen couldn't help but smile and said, "You can still do needlework?"

Di Yan was taken aback by him, and hurriedly received the needle and thread behind her, and said coquettishly: "You lazy ghost, have you finally woken up?"

Li Zhen raised his arms high, stretched his waist for a long time, and now that his shoes and socks were taken off, he was a little embarrassed and said: "I was too sleepy last night, I fell asleep when I fell, and I didn't care about taking off my shoes." ”

"Yes, I don't care to take off my shoes, I don't even care to lock the door, I hope that some thief will come in and kill you with a knife. ”

Li Zhen scratched his head and smiled: "It is estimated that the thief doesn't look down on me, a poor ghost, so it's better for you to pretend to be a thief and touch in." ”

Di Yan's face turned red, and she poked him with a needle, "Get up quickly, by the time you reach noon, this girl will faint from hunger!"

Li Zhen also seemed to feel that he had said something wrong, he jumped up in embarrassment, put on his shoes haphazardly, "I'll go freshen up!" he ran downstairs with his feet up, and his footsteps ran loudly.

Di Yan sighed, put away the needle and thread, and made the bed for him again, while complaining in a low voice: "I can sleep until noon, no wonder his eldest sister always scolds him for being lazy, he is really lazy to get home." ”

"I'm all right!"

Li Zhen had already washed his face and came back, looking refreshed, he saw that Di Yan had already cleaned up his room, so he smiled and said, "Let's go to lunch, I will invite you to eat roast leg of lamb." ”

"And then?"

"Then let's go to the Taiji Palace to take a foothold, find the Ziyun Pavilion first, and then see if there are any patrols and the like, so as to prepare for the evening. ”

Di Yan didn't say anything, she was slightly lost in her heart, in fact, she wanted to go to Qujiangchi

Taiji Palace is located in the north of Chang'an City, when Emperor Wen of Sui reigned, it was the political center of the Great Sui Dynasty, and it was called Daxing Palace.

After the establishment of Li Tang, Taiji Palace became the political center of the two generations of monarchs of the Tang Dynasty, and the famous 'Xuanwumen Incident' was born in the Xuanwu Gate in the north of Taiji Palace.

Since Tang Gaozong Li Zhi ascended the throne, the Tang Dynasty began to build a new palace - Daming Palace, Taiji Palace gradually fell the curtain of history and became the residence of some old palace concubines.

In order to get rid of the control of the Guanlong aristocracy over the Tang Dynasty, Wu Zetian resolutely decided to move the capital to Luoyang, and the divine capital Luoyang prospered.

And the Taiji Palace has become a yellow flower in the past, almost all the palace materials were transported to Luoyang, the palace maids and eunuchs also moved to the Luotai Chu Palace, the Taiji Palace is full of empty huge buildings, no one lives in it, no one takes care of it, the weeds are overgrown, and the snakes and rats are nests.

However, there are still 1,000 troops stationed in the Taiji Palace, who are stationed at the palace gate, inspect the palace, prevent ordinary people from entering the palace at will, and maintain the dignity of the Tang Dynasty.

But for Li Zhen and Di Yan, who are strong in martial arts, this military protection is meaningless at all, and at night, the two sneaked into the Taiji Palace from near the Xuanwu Gate in the north, and after passing through a long corridor, they entered the sleeping area of the Taiji Palace.

Li Zhen and Di Yan both changed into black night clothes, wore long swords, and Li Zhen carried a bow and arrow on his back and a long heavy dà bag in his hand.

They had already stepped on the road to Ziyun Pavilion during the day, and they were very familiar with the road to Ziyun Pavilion, and the two of them moved quickly and climbed a mountain pavilion, and the whole picture of the Taiji harem appeared in front of them.

To the north of the dormitory area is the back garden, there are several large pools in the middle and west of the garden, called the east, the west, the South China Sea pool, there are some garden nature palaces arranged around the three pools, there is a group of mountain pond courtyards in the northwest corner, at the foot of the mountain is the thousand-step corridor, which runs through the east and west, and leads directly to the Ziyun Pavilion.

In the eastern part of the big pool, there are a series of pavilions such as Lingyan Pavilion, Meritorious Pavilion, Purple Cloud Pavilion, and Ningyun Pavilion, and the Purple Cloud Pavilion they are going to is located in it.

Di Yan stared around for a moment and said, "Brother Li, it's a little strange tonight, you don't have it now, there are no soldiers patrolling in Taiji Palace?"

Li Zhen sneered and said: "This should be the credit of Wei Tuan'er, she paved the way for Yu Pinlong to enter the palace, but in the end, she cheapened us." ”

Di Yan also felt reasonable, she frowned slightly and said, "Can that female Taoist priest surnamed Xie stop Yu Pinlong?"

Li Zhen nodded, "The time for the dungeon to open is too short, it is very dangerous, if there is interference from others, it will inevitably fail, I think the female Daoist aunt understands in her heart that she will definitely go all out to intercept the fish and dragon." ”

Di Yan didn't have a good impression of that female Dao girl, she didn't want to listen to it anymore, so she pulled Li Zhen, "The time is almost up, let's go!"

The two of them ran down the mountain pavilion and ran along the thousand-step corridor towards the Purple Cloud Pavilion located on the northeast shore of the sea pool

There were indeed no soldiers defending the Taiji Palace tonight, Wei Tuan'er's secret order worked, and a thousand troops were all changed to garrison the Daming Palace, and there was no one in the huge Taiji Palace.

At this time, a group of black shadows quickly crossed the West Inner Garden, rushing towards the direction of Xuanwu Gate, this group of people is the ten subordinates led by Yu Pinlong, they only arrived in Chang'an at noon today, and made some necessary preparations, they prepared ladder parts, which can be put together into a long ladder temporarily.

Yu Pinlong was also very nervous in his heart, if he failed today's mission, Wei Tuan'er would never spare him, he knew Wei Tuan'er's methods, he was ruthless, Li Dan's Concubine Liu and Concubine Dou were mutilated by her, and he didn't even have the bones left, thinking of Wei Tuan'er's ruthlessness, his heart trembled.

The royal gardens of the Sui and Tang dynasties in the West Inner Garden, but they have been barren for many years, they have long been overgrown, and the clumps of aquatic reeds grow taller than people.

As soon as Yu Pinlong turned around, he saw his subordinates planted in the grass one after another, and in the blink of an eye, half of the ten subordinates disappeared, Yu Pinlong was shocked, drew his sword and shouted urgently, "Get out of the grass!"

His men were also panicked, and before they could react, countless black shadows rushed out of the grass, dozens of them, and pressed his men one after another, and the dagger stabbed into the heart, and there was a scream in the night.

Only then did Yu Pinlong see clearly, it was not a fierce beast and poisonous snake, but an ambush, he reacted very quickly, turned around and fled.

At this moment, an arrow suddenly hit him in the thigh, and Yu Pinlong fell to the ground, but the survival* still made him desperately get up, stumbling and running in the northeast direction.

A warrior raised his crossbow and aimed it at the back of his heart, but Wu Yinghong reached out and pressed the crossbow down, "Auntie has an order, spare him a life!"

Wu Yinghong looked at Yu Pinlong and fled, he turned around and looked at the depths of Taiji Palace.

Xie Daogu did not allow them to interfere in Li Zhen's actions, which made him a little puzzled in his heart, if they went to help, wouldn't it be a little more strength, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

He led more than 30 of his men to quickly evacuate the West Inner Garden, leaving ten corpses in the grass

Purple Cloud Pavilion in the Sui Dynasty called King Kong Pavilion, and Sui Emperor Wen believed in Buddhism related, the original purpose of the construction is to worship the Buddha treasure, Tang Gaozu Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty, the King Kong Pavilion was renamed Ziyun Pavilion.

Because the purple cloud is more than 20 zhang high, it is the highest building in the Taiji Palace, standing on the top of the pavilion, as if going straight to the sky of the purple cloud, Li Yuan changed the use, and used it to watch the sky at night, and the underground palace was renamed the Tibetan Seal Palace.

After Li Yuan's death. Taizong Li Shimin put the seal used by his father into the jade Linglong and put it in the Tibetan Seal Palace.

After Li Shimin's death, Gaozong Li Zhi put the seal used by his father into the jade Linglong and also put it into the Tibetan Seal Palace, which almost became a tradition of the Tang Emperor.

But this tradition came to an abrupt halt when it came to Tang Gaozong, and after the mysterious death of the old palace maid A'e, who was in charge of the key, there was one less key to open the dungeon, making it impossible to open the dungeon.

What's more, Wu Zetian didn't want to inherit this tradition, but sealed all the seals used by her husband Gaozong into the Qianling, and this unopened underground palace was gradually forgotten.

However, Yu Wenkai, the master craftsman who designed this underground palace, took into account the loss of the key and made an ingenious design, and every seven years, the underground palace has the opportunity to open automatically.

Tonight, Li Zhen's task was to take out the jade Linglong containing the seals of the two generations of emperors from the underground palace.

Li Zhen used the iron key given by Xie Ying to open a stone door under the Ziyun Pavilion, and slowly pushed it open, the stone door was only six feet high and four feet wide, and behind the stone door was a stone tunnel about two zhang deep, leading directly to the heart of the Ziyun Pavilion.

The two waited in front of the stone gate for a while, then lit the torch and walked slowly along the road, Li Zhen lowered his head, pointed to the torch in one hand, held the sword in the other, and walked forward cautiously step by step.

Di Yan followed him, but gently stroked the stone walls on both sides, which were carved with patterns of various Buddhist stories, and the patterns were vivid, hinting at the original purpose of this pavilion.

In just a moment, the two of them walked into the heart chamber of the Purple Cloud Pavilion, and as soon as they looked up, they both screamed 'Ah!'
