Chapter 44: A Letter from the Holy See Six Hundred Years Ago
Meanwhile.
The provincial capital of Jiangnan, on the east side of Yingtianfu.
Due to the construction of the subway here, a huge building remains were unexpectedly found, which is a tomb from the early Ming Dynasty, and after the expert group screened overnight, it was found that there was a site of the Ming Dynasty Wenyuan Pavilion.
According to relevant historical records, after Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, set the capital in Nanjing, he ordered craftsmen to build Wenyuan Pavilion on the east side of Fengfeng Tianmen, and the purpose of construction was to use it as a book collection.
After Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Later Ming Dynasty, moved the capital to Kyoto, Nanjing's Wenyuan Pavilion gradually declined, and Yu Chongzhen died in a fire in the twelfth year, and then completely disappeared in the long river of history.
No one thought that at this moment, the Wenyuan Pavilion of the Ming Dynasty would be discovered.
Although it can only be regarded as a former site, it is very exciting for most archaeologists.
Because Wenyuan Pavilion is a place where books are stored, even if it is just a few words left, it will be of great significance to the entire archaeological community.
Especially this time, because of the different discoveries in history, the state paid more attention to the archaeological discoveries of the Ming Dynasty.
Soon one order after another was given.
The first is that the original subway direction is being redirected, and the second is that more people are moving into the archaeological site.
It's just that after digging for several days, to everyone's disappointment, Bi didn't dig up any useful information, and the fire from the past few hundred years ago almost destroyed everything.
And in the midst of everyone's disappointment.
An almost half-destroyed wooden box appeared in the sight of the archaeologists.
Due to the high temperature, the wooden box, which was only about three feet wide, was almost completely carbonized, and when the archaeologists carefully opened the wooden box, everyone couldn't help but have a touch of surprise.
Because in the wooden box, there was a golden book made entirely of gold.
It seems that because of the isolation of the wooden box, the golden book has not been affected in the slightest.
When I picked it up, the words on it were still clear.
Some archaeologists subconsciously read out the words on it.
"Your Majesty the Honorable and Great Emperor, your country is as dazzling as the sun, as eternal as the sun and the moon, the Lord of the Western Curia, King Urban VI, respectfully asks you St. Ann, the great You have illuminated the whole East with the light of the sun, driven the alien beasts out of the territory of the human race, and made the human race shine again, but the West is still trampled under evil, can you invite you and your powerful army to work with us to expel the evil ........ of the West"
The words were read out slowly, but as soon as the words came out, the pupils of the famous archaeologist in front of him couldn't help but shrink violently.
"This, this is?"
"Urban VI, who is this!"
"Urban VI, formerly known as Prignano, pope of noodle nationality, reigned 1378~1389."
"This, this is?"
Someone muttered to himself, subconsciously saying the origin of the name Urban VI.
But it was precisely because of what he said that the inner impact of everyone at this moment was extremely huge.
At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a document written in gold was found in one of the former sites of Wenyuan Pavilion from the Western Holy See, and it was very likely that it was written by the Lord of the Western Holy See, which made everyone present who had studied history for half their lives think stuck.
"I remember that in history, the exchanges between the East and the West should have started in the Age of Discovery."
Someone muttered to himself.
But apparently no one paid any attention to him.
Everyone's minds were still roaring.
Not only because of the text that comes from the Holy See, but also because of what is written on it.
This is a letter written by the Holy See to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the general content is a request for help.
Inviting the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it is very likely that Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yuanzhang's army will help them suppress evil and expel foreign beasts.
As a result, the style of painting is a little wrong.
"Xu Da, Xu Da's tomb!"
A young man seemed to think of something, and an exclamation sounded.
Immediately, the other people couldn't help but look at the red silk thread.
"Don't you remember, Xu Da's tomb, our previous archaeological Xu Da's tomb directly appeared in the phantom of General Xu Da, that is obviously extraordinary power!"
"Now there are strange beasts on this golden book, maybe those ancient legends are very likely to be true."
The young man's eyes lit up, and in the midst of his gaze, his words seemed particularly excited, and his eyes were shining with stars at the moment.
And listening to his words, everyone's hearts moved.
There was also a suspicious look in his expression.
Only the two old men at the head frowned slightly, especially one of them wanted to scold.
But at this moment. In the middle of the archaeological site, a figure hurriedly walked in.
"Elder Li, Elder Wang, has Wenyuan Pavilion discovered anything important?"
As soon as Yi Feng approached, he hurriedly asked the two old men led by him.
As he was always staring at the archaeological site, he got the news almost immediately, so he ran over in a hurry.
And when he spoke, he suddenly saw the small golden book in the hand of a person.
Subconsciously walked over, and when he approached, his eyes also subconsciously looked at the golden book.
At this moment, the golden book was opened, and the words on it were naturally clearly revealed.
And when the lines of words came into view, Yi Feng's pupils couldn't help shrinking.
"Commissioner Yi!"
"Commissioner Yi, this!"
At this moment, the two old men led by them also reacted, looked at Yi Feng, opened their mouths and wanted to say something, but they didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
Could it be that they dug up a letter from the head of the Western Holy See to Zhu Yuanzhang hundreds of years ago?
After all, this hasn't been verified yet.
But not yet.
Yi Feng's voice sounded first.
"Elder Li, Elder Wang, this golden book, I need to submit it to Kyoto immediately, here is the same as before, please sign a confidentiality agreement."
Yi Feng opened his mouth and looked at the two old men with an extremely solemn expression.
"This!"
The two glanced at each other, and at this moment they couldn't help but feel a shock in their hearts.
Originally, he was a little suspicious in his heart, but at this moment, under Yi Feng's words, there was a flash of shock in the eyes of both of them.
Of course, after Xu Da's tomb, the above is also treated in the same way.
This time it turned out to be the same.
"We get it!"
"Don't worry, Commissioner Yi!"
Taking a deep breath, the two looked at each other, then nodded in agreement.
And Yi Feng hurriedly returned to Kyoto with this golden book.
The archaeological site, as in the previous Xu Da tomb, began to stop excavation, and at the same time, the ruler, who had a special secret bureau, began to hold a confidentiality treaty and began to have one archaeologist start to sign it one after another.
