It was already dusk the next day when Li Ye returned home. He found that he really couldn't take his wife with him. It would take two days and the child couldn't live without her, so he could only take his mother alone.
Li Ye and Dugu Xinyue discussed for a while. Dugu Xinyue thought for a while and said, "How about we buy a yard in Fengtian County. If there is any emergency in the future, we can hide in Fengtian County. What do you think?"
Li Ye nodded, this is a good idea. The Cunning Rabbit's Three Cave, Fengtian County has high mountains and dense forests, which is an easy place to hide.
Fengxian County is the most remote county in Jingzhao Prefecture. It produces salt, has many mountains and forests, and has little arable land. It is a well-known backwater in Jingzhao Prefecture. House prices are also very cheap. You can buy a good house with just a few hundred yuan.
courtyard.
His wife would not be at ease if he only allowed his mother to go with him. However, Li Ye suddenly changed his mind and realized that in troubled times, remote areas would also be hiding places for thieves and were actually not safe.
Rather than buying a house, it is better to rent a house. It is low-key and does not attract the attention of the government and neighbors. Renting it for a few years is no different from buying a house.
Dugu Xinyue also agreed to rent a house so that she would not be stared at. She nodded, "Okay, let's rent it for a year first!"
Li Ye immediately arranged for two soldiers to rent a house in Fengxian County. The house does not need to be big, three acres is enough, a relatively low-key yard, but not too bad, and the environment should be comfortable, preferably at a bridge with beautiful scenery.
near mountains.
In the afternoon, another big news came from the court. The emperor conferred the title of two more princes. In order to commend the military governor of Longyou, Ge Shuhan, and the military governor of Shuofang, An Sishun, for their long-term defense of the frontier, Ge Shuhan was specially conferred the title of Prince of Longyou.
The king decreed that An Sishun should be crowned King of Liang.
At the same time, Li Ye, the governor of Anxi Province, was commended for his outstanding military exploits in recovering Shazhou and Dabolu. He was specially promoted to General of Hussars and given the title of Prince Taibao.
Li Ye's promotion did not attract much attention. He was overshadowed by the aura of Ge Shuhan and An Sishun being crowned kings. Everyone in the government and the public was talking about Ge Shuhan and An Sishun being crowned kings. Everyone believed that the emperor made these two kings.
, was to confer An Lushan as King of Yan before the balance.
It was indeed a mistake to confer the title of Yanshan on Anlu Mountain before, but now the titles of Ge Shuhan and An Sishun as kings are actually diluting the gold content of the royal title and reducing the impact of Anlu Mountain being conferred the title of King of Yan.
Of course, the government and the public will think that this king is not the other king. The title of a hero and the prince are completely different. The prince has a chance to inherit the throne. These three kings with different surnames are all barbarians. Of course, they cannot inherit the country of the Tang Dynasty.
.
But Dugu Ming didn't think so. He felt that naming three people as kings was paving the way for Li Ye to be crowned king and reducing everyone's sensitivity to Li Ye being crowned king.
Two days later, Li Ye took his wife, daughter and mother to Fengxian County, accompanied by two wet nurses and a dozen soldiers.
Of course, the excuse was to go out for a walk and take a look at the Northeast Military Camp.
The two carriages set off in the early morning and arrived in Fengxian County at midnight. The rented house was not in the city, but outside the city, about ten miles away from Qiaoshan, it was a beautiful village with beautiful mountains and clear waters, fresh air and simple folk customs.
The family entered the house and made simple arrangements to rest.
Li Ye went to the Northeast Military Camp to deal with some military affairs first. At night, after the children and wet nurses had gone to bed, Pei Sanniang and Dugu Xinyue put on their night clothes, carried their long swords on their backs, and set off with Li Ye.
This place is very close to Qiaoling. Half an hour later, the three of them arrived at the entrance to the north of Qiaoling.
Pei Sanniang was a little nervous, and whispered to Li Ye: "After opening the secret passage, don't rush in, ventilate it, and wait for the air to flow smoothly before entering!"
Li Ye nodded. He heard Master Mingsong say that there was a corpse inside, which was another of Feilong's subordinates. He desperately held on to the hole and closed it, allowing Feilong and Mingsong to escape from the secret room at the critical moment, but he himself
The sealed road should now be a pile of bones.
"I'm going in. You guys guard the entrance of the cave. If you find anything unusual, ring the bell. We'll come out right away."
"Go ahead! Come out quickly."
Pei Sanniang guarded the entrance of the cave, while Dugu Xinyue climbed on the pine tree opposite. She could see further and monitored the surrounding movements with a flying knife in her hand.
Li Ye carried two thick wrought iron rods into the cave. This was Pei Sanniang's suggestion. Put the wrought iron rods against the entrance of the cave. If the secret door suddenly closed, it would be stuck by the iron rods.
Li Ye stood in front of the stone wall and lit a fire stick. This was a fire stick used in the palace. It was like a flashlight. It ignited with a twist and could be used for a quarter of an hour.
The thirteen numbers on the map had taken root in his mind. He struggled to push the bluestones inside. A quarter of an hour later, with a 'click!', the secret room door slowly opened.
Li Ye quickly stepped aside. He was worried that there was a hidden weapon or that the air was poisonous, but there was nothing. The air in the secret passage was very fresh, and he could enter immediately without waiting.
Li Ye felt a little strange. The fresh air meant that there was a vent in the secret room. Where could it be?
But Li Ye still waited for a while to make sure there was nothing abnormal. Then he carefully placed the iron rod at the door. It was clearly written on the map that the door could only be opened three feet wide. At this time, you must not push the door. Once you push the door
, the door began to close.
There is a special note on the map that the secret passage opens in March, and once it is closed, he will be dead.
Li Ye held a knife in one hand and a fire seal in the other and walked slowly inside. After walking a few steps, a white bone appeared on the ground. This was Feilong's confidant. For the sake of the savior, he was locked in and turned into a white bone.
.
The secret passage is very simple. Just make a circle and go around. The innermost part is the secret room. The entire secret passage is one foot high and five feet wide. There are blue stones on the top, bottom, left and right. There is a layer of dust on the ground. The original footprints have been covered by dust. This shows that
There is still dust from outside entering the secret passage.
Li Ye walked slowly in the secret passage alone. Although he was brave as an expert, he was still quite nervous. However, considering that Feilong had to run more than a dozen times to bring everything in, Feilong was not afraid, so what should he be afraid of?
?
Li Ye took a deep breath and walked around in a circle. Suddenly, a large space appeared in front of his eyes. This was the secret room. He estimated in his mind that it was a full two hundred square meters. It was full of large wooden boxes. There were also signs on the big wooden boxes.
It is equipped with wheels and can be towed directly.
Li Ye suddenly discovered that the layout of the secret room was exactly the same as that of Taipingfang, except that it was many times larger.
He quickly came to the far left, and sure enough, there was a row of iron shelves. The iron shelves were covered with dust and empty, except for a jade box. Li Ye searched the secret room carefully again. There were two hundred and eighty in total.
There was only a large wooden box, which was nailed tightly, and there was a layer of dust on it. Apart from the wooden box and the jade box, there were no other items.
If Feilong wants to leave anything for himself, it can only be in this jade box.
At this time, the flames dimmed. Li Ye quickly put the jade box into his arms, turned around and walked quickly out of the secret passage. Before the fire was extinguished, Li Ye walked out of the secret passage and threw two iron rods into the secret passage.
, push the big bluestone hard, and the big bluestone slowly returns to its original shape.
When Li Ye walked out of the cave, Pei Sanniang and Dugu Xinyue came up to him and asked in a low voice: "Have you found it?"
"I don't know if that's true, let's talk about it when we get back!"
The three of them worked together to cover the entrance of the cave with soil and fill it with weeds full of grass seeds. By spring, the place was completely engulfed by weeds.
Back at the rented house, the three of them each changed their clothes.
The child was still sleeping soundly, with a flushed face, completely unaware that his mother had left briefly.
Li Ye opened the jade box at the table, and inside it turned out to be an imperial edict.
He slowly unfolded the imperial edict and was suddenly stunned.
It turned out to be the emperor's imperial edict. Dugu Xinyue stepped forward and was stunned for a moment.
It is clearly stated above that Li Ye, Prince of Gaochang County, is hereby granted the title of Prince of Liang. The edict was signed on the first day of the first lunar month of the 14th year of Tianbao.
The square and square jade seal of the Emperor is covered below.
