Most of what is stored in Tianlu Pavilion are various secrets of Jiuyou Kingdom, memorials of ministers, orders issued by Xiao Shizhu and the mother of the country, etc.; even the important ministers of Jiuyou Kingdom have identity authority to consult.
To read them all, you need the handwriting of Xiao Shizhu or the Ghost Mother.
"Yes." Chen Ruo had already been prepared, and the ghost mother also gave her a handbook in advance to be prepared. She took it out of her sleeve without hesitation and handed it to Jiang Ziwen.
Jiang Ziwen unfolded his handwriting and saw that it was indeed the ghost mother's handwriting and seal. He didn't ask any more questions. He once again immersed himself in the heavy scroll at hand and registered it. He rolled up the handwriting and held it in his hand before standing up: "Please Chen."
If you, sir, come with me."
He led Chen Ruo to the bookcases behind him, followed the narrow path between the bookshelves, turned a few turns, and stood on a cabinet with a piece of wood with two large vermilion characters of "Wu Shen" written on it.
Stand in front of the brand bookcase.
Chenruo looked up and saw that the cabinet was three feet high and divided into six floors. Each floor had ten grids, and each grid was named according to the sixty stems and branches. There was a gold-lacquered book box in each grid.
Jiang Ziwen looked carefully and soon found the "Wuxu" grid. He climbed up with a ladder, took off the key from his waist and opened the gold-lacquered book box in this grid.
After rummaging for a while, he found the memorial of Sanxing Island's agricultural output and so on stored in it. He locked the box and got down the ladder. He handed the memorial to Chen Ruo: "Please give it to the mother of the country, but please return it after seven days, so we can
Deposit again."
"Thank you." Chen Ruo reached out and took it. He looked around and saw no ghosts. He bowed his head and lowered his voice in Jiang Ziwen's ear: "Emperor Fengdu asked me to remind you that it is best to get information on Xiao Shizhu's recent military operations.
, leave it to me to pass on to His Majesty.”
With a natural look on her face, she smiled, turned around and left, leaving Jiang Ziwen stunned in place, his eyes widened and his lips slightly opened.
Jiang Ziwen was stunned for a long time before he realized that the suffering he had suffered before was nothing more than Emperor Fengdu's trick of letting a person who didn't even know he was a spy to be a spy, so that Xiao Shizhu would not notice it.
For a moment, his heart was in a state of turmoil, and he didn't know what to do.
But after a flash, he suddenly clenched his fists; Emperor Fengdu was not as good to him as one-tenth of Xiao Shizhu. And since he was abused by Emperor Xuan's army, he had changed his gender. He was unwilling to get back a child.
He wanted to take the throne, but betrayed Xiao Shizhu, who was kind to him.
At that moment, he no longer hesitated, strode to the open space in front of the bookshelf, saluted the director of Tianlu Pavilion who was sitting in the middle of the office, and said: "Sir, I am going to get some memorials from my lord and bring them back for the record.
.”.
Sitting behind the desk, the white-haired man wearing reading glasses smiled indifferently, waved his hand and said: "Go back quickly." After saying this, he continued to work hard.
"No." In response, Jiang Ziwen turned and left.
He strode forward, walked out of Tianlu Pavilion and headed towards Tianyang Palace; he knew that Xiao Shizhu worked there every day after noon. He would definitely find this playful lord there, but he had to hurry. If so
After Xiao Shizhu finished approving the memorial for that day, he would disappear without a trace.
When he arrived at Tianyang Palace, Qinglan, who was guarding the door, stopped him with a fly whisk in his hand.
"Eunuch Qing." Jiang Ziwen hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, "I have something to report secretly to the lord, can you please be accommodating?"
"What's the matter?" Qing Lan asked ignorantly. Of course, he did this deliberately according to Xiao Shizhu's request, in order to prevent Jiang Ziwen from seeing that Xiao Shizhu was testing.
"It's a matter of archiving in Tianlu Pavilion." Jiang Ziwen then thought about it and thought that such a big thing could not be made public, so he lied and said: "There is an error in the secret memorial archiving."
But he didn’t say much, just stopped there.
Qing Lan suddenly became anxious. After all, the secret report was a first-class secret. He immediately acted as if he didn't dare to neglect it and said urgently: "Go quickly."
"Thank you so much, Eunuch Qing." Jiang Ziwen bowed again before walking into the attic in front of him.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Shizhu raised his eyes and glanced at Jiang Ziwen who was standing in front of him, and asked with a mean smile: "Have you fallen in love with a girl from a certain family? Tell me, I will send a ghost to propose marriage to you."
Jiang Ziwen was stunned. He thought this was just what Xiao Shizhu said casually, but he didn't expect that the other party was still thinking about it, which strengthened his loyalty. After a slight salute, he said solemnly: "Thank you for your trouble, my lord, but today I will
Come, it’s not a big deal about marriage.”
"Oh?" Xiao Shizhu put down the ink pen in his hand and stretched: "What is that?".
"Emperor Fengdu asked a mole to inform his ministers to steal the lord's recent military information." Jiang Ziwen looked excited and said in a deep voice: "And the mole who contacted him turned out to be Chen Ruo, who is beside the mother of the country."
After a pause, he told the details of how Chen Ruo found him.
Xiao Shizhu didn't expect Jiang Ziwen to be so decisive suddenly, and his face suddenly showed surprise: "Chen Ruo, can't you?".
When Jiang Ziwen nodded his head affirmatively, he paused and said, "Then what are you going to do?".
"It won't work if you don't give it. After all, there is no airtight wall in the world." Jiang Ziwen said bluntly about the countermeasures he came up with along the way: "Since I am not in a high position now, I can give him some information on chasing Wu Hui.
But don’t mention the matter of Xiaofeng Plain. In this way, Emperor Fengdu will think that I have begun to be loyal, and the information from Fengdu will be transmitted to Jiuyou Kingdom through me to some extent, which will be beneficial to your development, my lord."
"I'll take care of Chen Ruo's matter. Don't shut it up." This is indeed the best way and the only way. Xiao Shizhu pretended to think for a moment, nodded, looked at Jiang Ziwen with trust in his eyes, and said: "
Just follow your suggestions, I believe you can handle this well."
"No." Jiang Ziwen trembled with excitement at Xiao Shizhu's words, bowed and stepped back.
"What you did is tantamount to betraying His Majesty." He had just walked behind the door when Xiao Shizhu suddenly asked again: "King Qin Guang, don't you want your throne back?".
"In Fengdu, no matter how much I do, the Emperor of Fengdu turns a blind eye, so slowly I also choose to make money." Jiang Ziwen suddenly stopped, and after being stunned for a moment, he turned his back to Xiao Shizhu, shook his head slightly, and said softly: "But I am being raped.
During this period of distribution, I have suffered so much that I have understood a truth. What is more interesting than amassing money and being the king of hell is that a good bird chooses the right tree to roost, and you are more worthy of my loyalty and assistance."
After finishing speaking, he strode out without even turning his head.
A proud smile appeared at the corners of Xiao Shizhu's raised lips
In Jiangmo County, the Mojiang River, with water as black as ink, meanders through the county.
On the southern border, in the dangerous gray valley south of the Mojiang River, there is a gathering place of forests, swamps and streams. Green and blue will-o'-wisps fly through the woods and swamps, and the branches are covered with ugly flowers.
It is a hell bat with a face shaped like a cone, a short snout and canine teeth, and can turn into a ball of fire.
Sometimes they can be seen spreading their wings and flying high, turning into a ball of fire and then rushing towards the ground like a falling meteor; then they turn into bats only three to five inches above the ground, screaming and swooping straight into the sky.
In the south of the valley, there is a large pass built against the mountain. Unlike other passes, there are no gates or towers here, nor high walls and trenches. There are only numerous plank roads, built on both sides of the steep, steep and difficult-to-climb cliffs.
Passing by the cliff pavilions and caves on the mountain wall, there is also an iron cable bridge across the sky, hundreds of feet above the ground, connecting the two cliffs.
On the ground in the valley, beside the swamps, and along the streams, there are dozens of dock towers with a watchtower in the center and four towers connected by planks. They are all located in dangerous places in the valley where there are many strange rocks, which are easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Here is the largest pass on the southern border of Jiuyou Kingdom - Chongshan Pass.
On the tops of caves and pavilions on the cliffs, the flags of the Nine Nether Kingdom can be seen everywhere. The bright red Bianhua flowers on the flags flutter with the sharp wind passing through the valley. On the iron cable bridges and plank roads, there are five posts and one sentry every ten steps.
There are 10,000 Jiuyou Army and Xiao Family Army stationed here, as well as 2,000 militiamen. The highest commander here is Qianhu Baijin, who followed Xiao Shizhu in the north and south.
One person attained the Tao of chickens and dogs and ascended to heaven. Baijin was no longer a thousand households, but Xiao Shizhu's general Mingwei, with a rank of third rank. He was also the ghost who was promoted the fastest among the veterans of the Xiao family army.
Only because he was steady and never took risks, he won the trust of Xiao Shizhu. As soon as he entered Yuque City, Xiao Shizhu ordered him to go straight to Jiangmo County, recaptured him and stationed him at Chongshan Pass.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Platinum, with dragon eyebrows and phoenix eyes, white teeth and red lips, stood on the highest iron cable bridge between the two cliffs, standing facing south and looking up at the mouth of the valley not far away.
After passing the valley entrance, the wasteland dyed red by the setting sun is Du Ziren's land. At present, the land that Xiao Shizhu wants to seize most.
Calculating the time, Bai Jin, as requested by Xiao Shizhu, assisted the county magistrate to maintain order and security in Jiangmo County. At the same time, he was stationed at Chongshan Pass and recruited and trained troops on the spot for a year.
Every time he saw the sunset at the entrance of the valley, he would secretly miss his family far away in Yuque City. Occasionally he would sigh deeply, and today was no exception.
When the sigh fell and echoed slightly in the valley, a large shadow suddenly appeared above his head and enveloped him, and then a dragon roar was heard.
Zuo Fan, wearing a flying fish suit and waist-length armor, holding a three-pointed two-edged sword, descended from the sky on his chilong.
The small green dragon that was once only one foot long has now grown to two feet long. As soon as it landed on the cable bridge, it brought up a strong gust of wind, causing the cable bridge to sway violently from side to side.
"General." Zuo Fan, now a platinum deputy general, tightened the reins in his hands and said solemnly: "In the Fengsheng Wood outside the mouth of the southern valley, a large number of women holding green snakes in their right hands and red snakes in their left hands, with disheveled hair and bodies covered with scales, appeared.
ghost!".
"Snake Bone Woman?" Bai Jin was slightly startled and exclaimed: "Aren't they guarding the gold mines in the southern wilderness?" (To be continued)
