"iron plate?"

Han Mo reacted and immediately walked to the backyard: "Have you ever gone down to explore?"

"I didn't tell the prince, so I didn't dare to move!"

The house is not big, and the backyard is quickly reached. A well located in the east is being guarded by guards. There are two people crouching at the mouth of the well, discussing the depth.

Han Mo arrived in front of the well and took a closer look. He saw that the well mouth was more than two feet wide and there was no well pulley. Instead, there were two buckets beside it. The situation below the water surface could not be seen. He picked up the bucket and handed it to the guard: "

Put a few rocks in and have a look."

There was one next to the stone, which the guards had also explored before. The heavy bucket went down into the well and sank below the surface of the water without much effort.

After touching about one foot, the bucket hit the bottom. Han Mo took it in his hand, moved the bucket back and forth a few times, and got a rough idea. Then he took off the sword, stuffed the corner of his robe into his waist, and pulled the rope from the bucket.

He took it off, tied one end to his waist, and gave the other to the guard. He stretched his legs to get down. The guard quickly stopped him: "Your Majesty, don't get off, let your subordinates go!"

"Hold it well!"

Han Mo didn't talk nonsense to them and went down the well along the wall.

It was as good as expected. He went down into the water and just up to his waist, the soles of his feet touched a hard iron plate. He moved his feet carefully, measured the size, then stretched out his hand to explore the four walls, and then

He jumped back to the ground.

"Drain the water! Let the well wall above the iron plate be exposed!"

The guards immediately brought a dozen buckets and took turns carrying water out.

The ten-foot-deep water was quickly pumped away, exposing the entire iron plate.

"Your Majesty, you see there seems to be a hole in the wall of the well!"

"Go down and have a look!"

When Han Mo spoke, two guards jumped off the iron plate first. Afraid that the iron plate was still intact, they inserted a few wooden sticks horizontally and vertically between the walls of the well as support. Soon they raised their heads and said: "Your Majesty, at the entrance of the cave.

It’s nearly two feet wide and can accommodate one person passing through!”

"Throw a stone in and see how deep it is."

Han Mo also jumped down, and the hole was clearly revealed in front of him. In fact, he had already noticed it when he was exploring the bottom of the water with his toes, so he asked them to pump the water up.

The guard tied a stone with a rope and threw it inside. When there was no abnormal sound, he bent down and crawled in. After a while, he came back and said, "Your Majesty, there is an iron gate inside, blocking the way. It seems there is an iron gate!"

Hearing this, Han Mo pulled him away and walked in by himself.

This underground cave can only allow one person to pass through, and it extends in the direction of a slope. At the top of the slope is a stuck iron door. When I pushed it, the door simply didn't move.

Han Mo thought for a moment, then exited the cave and said, "Go and invite Miss Su."

…

"Jinling is the most lively at this time. Many flowers are in bloom. The willows on both sides of the Qinhuai River are like smoke, like a fairyland."

Aji was watering the flowers and chatting about some things from his childhood.

Su Nu sat next to her and cracked melon seeds while asking her: "Have you ever been to the Qinhuai River?"

In my impression, both sides of the Qinhuai River are places of fireworks.

"There is a Taoist temple there, and every year my mother takes me to the temple to pray for blessings."

"Aji," Su Nu patted the melon seed shells on his body and asked, "If the Xue family is rehabilitated, have you ever thought about where you are going?"

Aji raised her face, her round and rosy face was a little confused, and then she was silent again. After a while, she said dullly: "I don't know where to go, I have no place to go. Although I miss my father very much and want to go back to Jinling to worship.

, but then I have to wait until I grow up before I can walk such a long way? And I also want to find my mother, which will be even more difficult. Big girl, if only I could do it like you, I can do it on my own

Feel free and bold to do what you want to do.”

"It's easy for you to become more capable," Su Nu cupped his chin and looked at her, "You stay at Su's house and help me keep an eye on Su Qi. I will teach you to become more and more capable."

Aji's eyes lit up like stars: "Can I still stay in the Su family?"

"If you are willing to help me and take care of Su Qi, of course you can stay. I just don't know if you are willing. After all, our Su Qi is stupid and naughty. I don't think many people will be willing to stay with him.

Together. Aji, how about this, in addition to teaching you to be capable, I also teach you how to become a very fierce housekeeper, okay? If you become as fierce as me, he won't dare to be naughty."

Aji opened his eyes wide: "Second Master is not stupid at all! He is very smart and kind. I have never seen a better official son than him!"

Yes, Sister Fusang said that Prince Han was a very nice person, but she felt that he was too fierce and not as good as the second master.

"Then are you willing or not?" Su Nu asked her again.

Aji lowered his head to water two flowers, then turned his head and said in a low voice: "Young lady is teasing me again. You always pretend to be fierce and ruthless, but in fact you are doing it for my own good. The second master is now treating

You are so obedient, why do you need to find someone to discipline me? You clearly sympathize with my helplessness and want to take care of me, but you are also afraid that I will not be able to get along well and will not feel at ease staying here."

Su Nu made no sound.

Aji put down the flower pot, walked over and knelt down and said, "Aji is not so ungrateful. The girl always thinks about Aji, and Aji knows that, so he won't embarrass the girl. I have already suffered from the girl being like this."

I don't know how to repay the girl for such a great kindness. I can only treat her as my biological sister, just like the second master, I will listen to everything you say and remember everything you teach. In short, I will have nothing for the rest of my life.

Aji, please be patient."

After saying that, she kowtowed.

"Oh, why are you kowtowing your head again? It's not the Chinese New Year yet." Su Nu pulled her up, looking at such a little girl, feeling filled with emotion.

The evidence for Chang Wei's false accusation against Zhongliang is conclusive. It is only a matter of time before Xue Rong is vindicated. In this way, everyone who was implicated in the first place will also be vindicated. In other words, Aji will no longer have to remain anonymous in the future. She is a lady from an official household.

It's not appropriate to stay in the Su family as a maid.

Su Nu also respected her thoughts and saw if she had any wishes. He didn't expect that she was so discerning at such a young age, she was much better than that brat Su Qi!

"Then you will also call me eldest sister from now on. If you don't learn enough, don't cry when I scold you!"

"No way," Aji put his arm around her and leaned on her shoulder: "Sister."

"What's going on? Why are you watering the flowers and still holding them and crying?"

The boy's weird voice sounded behind him. Su Qi ran in front of them: "Hey, it's so annoying!"

Su Nu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Why are you here if you don't do your homework well?"

"I've finished my homework! I was just about to go out to find out the news when I saw the guards of the Han family coming. Crown Prince Han encountered an underground machine in Liushu Alley. Please go there!"

Happy New Year and good luck in the Year of the Rabbit
