Jiapingguan Chronicle

"Second Grandpa!" Xue Ruitian raised his hand, looked at Second Master Jiang expectantly, and said, "There must be some mechanism this time, right?"

"Hey, my Lord Xue, my little Lord, can you stop worrying about poisonous arrows and hidden arrows!" Mr. Jiang has not yet spoken, and Zhen is lying on the imperial concubine's bed with her eyes closed, taking a nap. He spoke without regrets, he sighed longly, and said helplessly, "We who work as agencies are also very particular about rules and regulations. We don't dare to work as agencies everywhere, okay?"

"Is it really impossible?" Xue Ruitian didn't believe it, but still asked expectantly, "This is such a hidden place after all, right? Isn't it a bit unreasonable to not do any mechanism? What if there is a thief, right? wrong?"

"Master Marquis, why don't you take a look at where this darkroom is? It's inside the palace!" Zhen Buhui didn't even open his eyes. He just lay there and counted with Xue Ruitian on his fingers, "Take a look. It is impossible for just anyone to enter the gate of the palace and the outermost wall, right? If you want to sneak into the palace, you must first go through the level of Commander Bai Mengbai, right? His forbidden army , the patrol camp is not a vegetarian, what kind of little thief can get through this level?"

"Extraordinary master? Master of martial arts?" Xue Ruitian thought for a while, "Or someone with better kung fu than them?"

"Why would an outsider or a master of martial arts go to the palace to feel uncomfortable? Are you curious?" Zhen Buhui shook his head helplessly, "Even if they are curious, have passed this level, and found the small warehouse accurately, The things in the small warehouse are enough for them to be curious about, right? Besides, why do people want to look for things from the previous dynasty? If they really want to look for them, they are looking for the warehouses of this dynasty. The things in there are what they should be curious about, right?"

"No, no, you've confused me and everything is in chaos." Xue Ruitian waved his hand, "We are not the owners who built this small warehouse and darkroom, so weren't the people who built this thing the former royal family? It's just what they did. If you don't see people doing anything, you must be afraid that someone outside will come in to retaliate against them and steal their things, right? Besides, their guards at that time were not as tight as we are now, right?"

"That makes sense, but to be honest, no one would be curious about the warehouse containing sundries."

"A place to store sundries?" Xue Ruitian looked at Second Master Jiang with a shocked look on his face and complained to him, "Second Grandpa, he actually said that place was used to store sundries. Could it be that the portrait of Queen Shuyu is a sundry?" ?”

"He's right, indeed." Mr. Jiang nodded, "The old man in the palace said that the warehouse was used to store sundries in the previous dynasty, and the portrait of Queen Shuyu was actually to block the secret passage in the dark room. Yes, the late emperor hung the portrait of Queen Shuyu in that place. Firstly, it was very close to the imperial study, so he could have various excuses to miss his mother. Secondly, he also felt that if there was that portrait If you stay there, no Xiaoxiao will dare to break in easily."

"Well..." Xue Ruitian touched his chin, "What he said makes sense."

"Moreover, the reason Brother Zhen just said is correct. There is no need to use any mechanism in the palace. It is very difficult to get in. Basically, few people can reach the end of the secret passage. , there is no need for any poisonous arrows or the like. Also, if you build such an offensive mechanism in the palace, it will accidentally hurt people. You have to understand, especially the former dynasty who values ​​their own lives very important. It is absolutely impossible for the royal family to allow such a thing to exist."

"Yes!" Zhen Buhui yawned and agreed, "And, most importantly, the secret passage in Ouchi has a lot to do with me."

"Ah?" Everyone was shocked now, and they all looked in the direction of the imperial concubine's couch where Zhen Buhui was, "Why does it have to do with you again?"

"It was my master who practiced the secret art of mechanism and Qimen Dunjia who was responsible for the construction. It was the two of us..." Zhen Buhui thought for a while, "my uncle was responsible for the construction. They left the blueprints and left with righteousness. . These are what my master told me. He said that those two uncles never came back after they left. In all likelihood, they must have been silenced by the previous royal family."

"This kind of thing is like the royal family of the previous dynasty building their own mausoleum. The people responsible for the construction left no one alive." "The general is right, that's what it is." Zhen Buhui changed to a more comfortable one. He gestured and continued, "The material of the secret passage along the corridor, what the general and the Duke said just now are very right, it is diamond, pure diamond, all in one piece, it is much better than the material used to build city walls, the secret is The door at the end of the road is also made of pure diamond. If you don't know how to open it, you can't get in. It's absolutely impossible to break it with a weapon."

"Do you know how to open that door?"

"Then I don't know. No one knows how to open that door unless the owner of the secret passage and dark room tells it."

"No, actually outsiders can know." Second Master Jiang chuckled, "At the end of the secret passage, that is, on the wall to the left of the door, there are two wall tiles that will make a hollow sound when you knock them. Button it down, and there will be the key to open this door."

"So simple?"

"It's not easy anymore." Shen Cha yawned and leaned on Shen Haolin's shoulder, "It's already very difficult to walk to this door smoothly."

"Yes, it's not easy to find this door. The last step is not that complicated, isn't it?" Mr. Jiang chuckled, "When you open that door, it's like opening up another world. , you will see a house full of golden and shiny things.”

"Are they all gold and silver jewelry left over from the previous royal family?"

"Yes, there is more gold but less jewelry. It can be seen that the previous royal family loved gold the most and filled the whole house to the brim."

"The taste is indeed not very good." Xue Ruitian couldn't help complaining, "Apart from these? Where are the secrets of the royal family?"

"Don't worry, won't it be here soon?" Second Master Jiang turned around and started drawing on the board, "Look, these shiny things are boxes of gold and jewelry. Please pay attention. In the corner above the right side of the gate, there are also several boxes piled up that look smaller than the other boxes. These boxes contain rolls of files and are very well protected."

"Is this the legendary royal secret?"

"Yes." Mr. Jiang nodded slightly, "These are the good secrets you want to know."
