Chapter 2 The Mysterious Town Demon Tower

Han Jiangliu was waiting to listen to Yang Jian's story, what kind of bizarre thing Princess Linglong was involved in, and what did it have to do with her disappearance, Yang Jian seemed to suddenly realize the seriousness of the situation, and quickly shook his head: "No, no, you can't tell others about this matter, Han Gongzi, please forgive me." ”

Han Jiangliu smiled and said, "It's okay, the secret affairs of the palace, I don't know." ”

Yang Jian said: "Han Gongzi is an understanding person. ”

Han Jiangliu said, "Then I'll go over there and look for it." ”

Yang Jian said, "Okay." ”

Han Jiangliu went to the garden behind Qinglu Palace alone.

The garden has been turned over by the palace maids and eunuchs, making cranes flying, parrots chirping, and petals scattered all over the place.

It seems that Princess Linglong is not here anymore.

Han Jiangliu looked up, but saw a small building in the middle of the garden, the windows of the small building were closed, the door was locked, and a thick layer of dust had accumulated on the steps in front of the door, as if no one had walked in thirty or fifty years.

Han Jiangliu suddenly had a feeling: "Princess Linglong is in this small building." ”

When you look closely, behind the window paper on the second floor of the small building, there is a faint golden light.

What kind of light is that?

Han Jiangliu asked an old palace maid next to him, "Sister, what is this small building for?"

The old palace maid said: "This small building is used to ward off evil spirits. ”

"What evil?"

"When the emperor first registered, he asked the Taoist priest to look at feng shui, and the Taoist priest said that the location of the palace was very good, but there was evil qi inside, and there were three evil qi in total. ”

Han Jiangliu asked, "So under this small building, is there one of the evil spirits?"

The old palace maid said: "I don't know much about this, I heard what others said. With that, the old palace maid turned around and looked elsewhere.

Yang Jian came over again, and he said, "Yes, this is indeed used to ward off evil spirits. ”

"Oh?"

Yang Jian said: "It doesn't hurt to talk to you about this matter. ”

Yang Jian then told Han Jiangliu in detail about the matter.

When the current emperor Huizong had just ascended the throne, he asked Taoist priest Lin Lingsu to calculate his fate and calculate the number of qi in the Great Song Dynasty.

Lin Lingsu is a very magical character, when he was a child, he used to be the scholar of the great writer Su Dongpo, once, Su Dongpo asked him what his ambitions were, Lin Lingsu replied with a smile: "When you are alive, you are respected, and when you die, you will build a temple and be worshipped, this is not noble, even if you are a marquis, it is just a false name, even if you build a temple, you are just a high-end ghost." My dream is to be a god.

Su Dongpo felt that Lin Lingsu's words were too absurd, and he didn't take it to heart.

But later, Lin Lingsu really didn't know where to get the true transmission, he was able to ascend to the throne, he could swallow talismans to pray for blessings, he could go to diseases and disasters, and even let ordinary people see the illusion of the Heavenly Palace, so he was supported by a large number of believers.

Song Huizong summoned Lin Lingsu to the palace, and Lin Lingsu performed his Taoist skills to Song Huizong, which aroused Song Huizong's great admiration and envy.

Lin Lingsu said that Song Huizong is a Taoist monarch, and he can naturally be the son of heaven for ten thousand years, but there are three evil caves in the palace, and there are ancient demons with a lifespan of 5,000 years hidden in the caves. Only by building a building in these three evil caves and pasting the talismans written by Lin Lingsu on them can the emperor and the Great Song Dynasty be safe and sound.

At that time, Emperor Huizong asked Lin Lingsu, so is it okay to move?

Lin Lingsu said no, the emperor's dragon body is here, so he can guarantee that everything is fine, if the emperor moves away, then only with the three small buildings and the talisman of the trail, it is still impossible to suppress these three demonic spirits.

So Song Huizong obeyed Lin Lingsu's arrangement, the palace still did not move, and the residences of the princes and princesses were also not moved, only according to Lin Lingsu's opinion, broke ground and built these three small buildings.

The first small building was built at the foot of Mount Gen in the northeast corner of the palace.

The second small building was built next to the study of the emperor's eldest son, that is, the crown prince Zhao Heng.

The third small building, that is, the one in front of Han Jiangliu, was built in the back garden of Princess Linglong, the eldest daughter of the emperor.

At that moment, Yang Jian roughly told Han Jiangliu what had happened.

After hearing this, Han Jiangliu sighed greatly and said, "If there is no guidance from the forest road chief, I am afraid that the three demon immortals would have already come out to plague the world." ”

Yang Jian nodded and said, "That's right, what Han Gongzi said is right. ”

At this time, the female eunuchs of the palace still did not find the whereabouts of Princess Linglong.

Some eunuchs said to Yang Jian: "Lord Yang, will the princess go to another palace, or have already left Qinglu Palace?" ”

Yang Jian thought for a while and said, "This is possible, I will go back and ask Your Majesty to send more people to search everywhere - Han Gongzi, let's go see the emperor." ”

Han Jiangliu said: "Wait a minute, in this small building, we haven't checked yet." ”

Yang Jian said: "Didn't I tell you just now? There is nothing in this small building, it was originally used to suppress the evil spirit, for four or five years, I have never entered, and the princess has never entered, you see, the doors and windows are intact, and even the dust in front of the stairs is still there." ”

Han Jiangliu was young and vigorous, and said, "It doesn't take much time to go in and have a look." ”

Yang Jian said: "No one will go in, if anyone goes in, how can the dust be so complete." Look-" Yang Jian leaned down and blew hard, the dust kicked up, and it was extremely dirty.

Yang Jian said, "Clean princess, how can you come to such a dirty place, right?"

However, the more Yang Jian blocked him, the more curious Han Jiangliu became: Why can't he enter? Yang Jian was spitting when he spoke just now, could it be that there was some conspiracy in this?

Han Jiangliu said: "Lord Yang, you take the rest of the people to check elsewhere first, and I can go upstairs alone." ”

Yang Jian's face suddenly sank and said, "Master Han, don't forget your identity. ”

Han Jiang Liuqi said: "We searched for the whereabouts of Princess Linglong, what does this have to do with my identity?"

Yang Jian said: "The palace is important, especially close to the princess's bedroom, the emperor is willing to let you come with me, it is already a great grace, don't be content, delusional about what great achievements you make, and want to rise to the top from now on and gain the emperor's appreciation." ”

Oh!

Han Jiangliu suddenly realized in his heart that the eunuch was a eunuch in the end, short-sighted, and extremely profitable, thinking that he was in a hurry to enter the building to find the whereabouts of the princess, and he wanted to invite merit and reward him as a big official as soon as possible, for fear that he would affect his future and affect the emperor's impression of his ability to do things. It turned out that Yang Jian had this little idea.

"Hmph. Han Jiangliu believed that his father was the prime minister of the dynasty, and he didn't take a eunuch in his eyes, and sneered: "Lord Yang, it's not interesting to say this, the princess is missing, you and I are looking for it together according to the holy order, this is a matter of course, what is the so-called invitation to merit and reward." On the contrary, if we can't find the princess, you and I will be guilty, and I can't afford this sin, and you can't afford it. ”

In the end, he is the son of Xiangmen, and he does not let the slightest room to speak.

Yang Jian couldn't resist, so he had to repeat what he had just said: "Clean princess, how can you come to such a dirty place?"

Han Jiangliu said: "Why not take a look. Then he went up the steps and asked to the left and right, "Which of you has the key?"

The palace maids and eunuchs on the left and right all shook their heads.

Yang Jian's face sank like water, and he seemed to have three points of anger, and said, "I only have the key, but I can't give it to you." ”

"If you don't give it, you don't give it, and you come to grab it?"

What is this called?

Han Jiangliu is a scholar, a martial artist, and his father is a big official who is in power and in the opposition, outside the palace, he has never put anyone in his eyes, and he also didn't put Yang Jian in his eyes at this time, and saw a few keys hanging from Yang Jian's waist, thinking that there must be a key to this town demon building.

Han Jiangliu rushed forward, wanting to take off the key directly from Yang Jian's waist.

Unexpectedly, this impulse almost caused a catastrophe, and Yang Jian held a grudge against Han Jiangliu from then on.

I saw Yang Jian's body swaying, and suddenly retreated more than two feet away.

This eunuch Yang Jian turned out to be a martial artist.

After Yang Jian retreated, he stood firm, pointed at Han Jiangliu and shouted: "Han Jiangliu, if you do it against our family in the palace, do you want to rebel." ”

Han Jiangliu also deeply regretted that he was too reckless at this time, and he was on good terms with the eunuchs in the palace, which was not a good thing anyway, even if the emperor would not blame him, it would be difficult to explain when he saw his father.

Han Jiangliu said: "Lord Yang, Xiaomin doesn't dare. "Stand still.

Yang Jian said with a smile, "This is like words, Han Gongzi, young man, is indeed easy to be impulsive. Remember, impulsiveness is the devil, a devil more terrible than the demon fairy at the bottom of the building, and if you don't get it right, you will harm yourself. ”

"Lord Yang's teachings, Xiaomin kept in mind. Han Jiangliu agreed, but in his heart he was even more curious about the small building behind him, there must be some secret in it that Yang Jian didn't want to be seen.

What is it exactly?

Yang Jian said: "Let's go, go look elsewhere, the princess must have left Qinglu Palace." ”

Han Jiangliu said, "Okay, let's go." ”

Han Jiangliu followed Yang Jian and left Qinglu Palace to ask the emperor what to do?

When he arrived at the palace, Song Huizong was dealing with the chapter in the house, although the eldest princess disappeared, but the important affairs of the monarchy should still be done, and they could not be delayed. I saw Song Huizong's brows tightly locked, and he looked in pain.

Yang Jian and Han Jiangliu went in to meet Jun.

Yang Jian said: "Your Majesty, a comprehensive search has been carried out, and the whereabouts of Princess Linglong have not been found. ”

"Oh?" Song Huizong put down the recital: "Have you searched all the corners of Qinglu Palace?"

"I've checked it all. ”

"That's weird. Song Huizong muttered to himself.

"Your Majesty," Han Jiangliu said, "Your Majesty, there is still a place that has not been checked, but Lord Yang does not let it be checked." ”

"Where?" asked the emperor.

"It's the town demon building in the back garden of Qinglu Palace. Han Jiangliu replied.

"Huh?" Song Huizong's face changed: "Yang Jian, why don't you let Han Jiangliu go to check the Demon Tower?"
