Liu Jue hesitated for a moment, thinking of his own question, "Where do you want to start from, sir!?"
"Let's start with your origins!"
Liu Jue stood up and said, "Then please come with me, sir!"
Under the leadership of Liu Jue, Yang Qingyuan walked to a hanging scroll on the first floor. Liu Jue stretched out his hand to remove the hanging scroll, and then turned a vase on the side.
There was a faint sound of a mechanism, and the wall where the hanging scroll was originally hung slowly opened.
"My lord please!"
A smile appeared on Liu Jueyang's lips, and he actually let Yang Qingyuan go first.
Interesting! Yang Qingyuan is also interested. I wonder what Liu Jue is up to!
Ordinary mechanisms are not of much use to Yang Qingyuan at this time. However, Yang Qingyuan is still cautious.
He can leave first, but there is no need.
"The host should take priority. If I leave first, wouldn't I be the host instead of the guest?!"
Liu Jue didn't insist, but sneered, "I don't know what kind of hero Mr. Yang is. It seems that your courage is limited!"
"Everything is about stability. I can leave first, but it's not necessary!"
Yang Qingyuan was not angry, he just smiled and followed Liu Jue.
The basement of Liu Mansion was very large. Yang Qingyuan followed Liu Jue for a stick of incense before arriving at the door of a stone chamber.
Liu Jue took out a jade ring, put it into the gap on the side, pushed it inward slightly, and the door of the stone chamber opened in response.
The stone room has a bright lamp on and the floor is clean. It is obvious that Liu Jue often comes here.
As soon as you enter the stone chamber, what strikes your eyes is a portrait.
The person in the painting is wearing a black dragon robe, a flat jade crown on his head, and holding an ancient sword on his hand. He has unparalleled majesty and majestic imperial power.
"The guilty minister has been sentenced, please see your majesty!"
When Yang Qingyuan heard this surname, he already knew Liu Jue's origin.
Liu Jue, no, he should be called Meng Jue, knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times, then stood up.
Yang Qingyuan also bowed to the portrait.
After Meng Jue stood up, he saw Yang Qingyuan also saluting the portrait. He couldn't help but asked curiously, "What?! Mr. Yang is a Zhou minister, but he saluted the previous emperor. If this is spread, I think you have some treason."
Where is your heart?!"
Yang Qingyuan shook his head and said with a smile, "Liu Yuanwai... Meng Yuanwai, what you said is wrong!"
"Please ask Mr. Yang for advice!"
"The Taizu of this dynasty, a commoner in Huaiyou, started an uprising from a common man without any suspicion of power. In order to expel the Tartars, he intended to wipe out the slaves and had no intention of foreshadowing the divine weapon. What Taizu rebelled against was the invasion of the Central Plains.
Nu and Yuan Qian succeeded the Chinese Taoist lineage of the former Qin Dynasty. When I worship the former Qin Shihuang, I am worshiping the predecessor of Emperor Taizu. What crime do I have to do?!"
Meng Jue suddenly even felt that they had thought too much these years!
As former officials of the former Qin Dynasty, they had not dared to reveal their identities over the years for fear of being eradicated by the Zhou court.
But judging from Yang Qingyuan's attitude, he doesn't seem to have much hostility towards these descendants of the former Qin Dynasty.
"Okay! Now tell me your specific identity!"
Meng Jue took out two futons and placed them in front of the portrait of the First Emperor.
"Master Yang, please sit down. In front of the portrait of the First Emperor, I dare not lie to you."
Yang Qingyuan followed the instructions and sat down cross-legged on the futon.
"I am the young grandson of Meng Cheng, the former deputy commander of the Qin Wei Army, Meng Jue."
"But the Mengtian tribe, the former Nine Plains Army God of the Northern Territory?!"
"That's my great-grandfather!" When Yang Qingyuan mentioned Meng Tian, Meng Jue also hesitated slightly. His great-grandfather was once the most dazzling general of the Meng clan.
Jiuyuan Army Shen Mengtian was the grandson of Shangqing Meng Ao and the son of Neishi Mengwu. He won the favor of the First Emperor and was worshiped as Neishi. He supervised the construction of the Great Wall and Shenzhouchi. He later led the 300,000 Jiuyuan Army to attack the Hulu and recover it.
The land of Hetao was so powerful that it was hailed as "China's No. 1 Warrior" by the Hu people at that time.
"It turns out he is the great-grandson of Commander Meng, but I am disrespectful!"
"Unworthy of our descendants, we have dishonored the glory of our ancestors and are deeply ashamed!"
You also boast about my great-grandfather, then we are good friends.
This is the current mentality of Meng Jue.
"Then the Meng Yuanwai were ordered to accumulate strength here and secretly plot to restore the country?!"
Although the tone of Yang Qingyuan's voice still gave people a feeling of spring breeze, the content of his words made people shudder.
"Master Yang, you are worrying too much! Our lineage did exist for the restoration of the country!! But before Master Ziying died, he issued an order for us to give up the restoration of the country and become normal people."
"After that, our lineage disbanded its power, each of us lived anonymously and lived a normal life."
"Anonymous? Live a normal life?" Yang Qingyuan's tone was obviously unbelieving.
The behavior of these people does not seem to be incognito.
"I know adults don't believe it. The reason why we are like this is because we also have enemies!"
"Enemy?! Dazhou?!"
Meng Jue shook his head and replied, "It's not Zhou, but the old Qin people like us!"
"Old Qin people?!"
Yang Qingyuan just listened to the conversation between Meng Jue and the mysterious man and probably guessed the camps of both parties.
Meng Jue confirmed, "Yes, our real opponents are the Lao Qin people!"
"Back then, the First Emperor passed the throne to Prince Fusu and established him as the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty! However, the 18th Prince Zhao Hai and Zhao Gao, the magistrate of the CRRC, falsely passed down the imperial edict and unjustly killed Prince Fusu and his great-grandfather! It was just as expected.
, Zhao Hai had no one to be the king, and restarted the feudal system, which caused the reappearance of the Six Kingdoms and tore Da Qin apart. Although the third son Ying Gongzi was determined to protect the country, he was unable to save the country. Da Qin eventually died in the second generation. "
"So you are from Ziying's lineage?!"
"Yes! Before my great-grandfather committed suicide, he ordered the Jiuyuan Army to stick to the northern border and prevent civil strife. Then 50% of the generals were Meng clan descendants and were sent to Xianyang to protect Young Master Ziying!"
A past event from the pre-Qin Dynasty was slowly revealed in Meng Jue's mouth.
"After the fall of the Qin Dynasty, our Meng clan and the secret guards of the Black Ice Platform of the Qin Dynasty protected Mr. Ziying and his family from fleeing and found a place to settle down. However, the descendants of Zhao Hai were taken away by the people of the Qin Dynasty! So the Royal Family of the Qin Dynasty committed suicide
This has divided them into two branches! They have the same power as water and fire, and they hate each other!"
"However, the Great Qin Luowang was set up by His Majesty the First Emperor in order to contain the martial arts warriors. There were many masters among them! And most of our Meng clan are members of the military. Based on the balance of strength, we naturally cannot be Luowang's opponent!
"
"The net must not be just for the so-called hatred!" Yang Qingyuan does not believe the so-called vendetta. A group of people who are constantly making trouble for the sake of restoring the country cannot keep doing things for the so-called hatred.
"Yes! There are two reasons. One is to gather our strength and strengthen ourselves! The other is to hold the key to the First Emperor's secret treasure in our hands!"
"The First Emperor's Secret Treasure?!"
Yang Qingyuan has heard this name more than once. Even the Zhou Dynasty court and the rest of the six dark tribes, including people in Jianghu, are looking for the secret treasure of the First Emperor.
"His Majesty, the First Emperor, was afraid that after a hundred years, future emperors would not be able to maintain the foundation of the Qin Dynasty, so he left countless secrets in the restored Qin Emperor's Mausoleum. Once the Qin Dynasty fell, they could use these secrets to reshape the Qin Dynasty.
Create another glorious moment!”
Yang Qingyuan knew that he had found the origin of this case!
This Emperor Qin’s treasure should be the cause of everything!
"Where is the key?!"
Hearing Yang Qingyuan's question, Meng Jue seemed even more indifferent, "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, since I chose to tell you everything! I will naturally give you the key!"
Meng Jue then turned his head to an ancient sword enshrined in front of the portrait of Emperor Qin.
"This sword of the First Emperor is the key to all the mechanisms in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor. With it, the Mausoleum of the First Emperor, which is full of mechanisms, can come and go freely!"
After hearing the words, Yang Qingyuan stood up and walked slowly to the ancient sword. He first bowed to the portrait of the First Emperor, then took the ancient sword from the sword stand and returned to his seat.
The First Emperor wears a sword. If you guessed it correctly...
"Keng!"
Yang Qingyuan slightly pulled out the sword. On the sword body near the hilt, there were two ancient seal characters engraved on it - "Tian Wen"!
"It is indeed the First Emperor's sword!"
"Ding!"
Yang Qingyuan flicked his finger, and Gu Jian Tianwen made a crisp and pleasant sword sound.
The divine sword has a spirit. This Qin Emperor's sword was once the most famous sword in the world. After being buried in the dust for nearly a hundred years, it finally met a master who could wield it again. It goes without saying that the joy in it was undeniable.
"This is the key to the First Emperor's Mausoleum?!"
"This is one of them!"
Although Meng Jue was a little reluctant to give up, he also knew that only by giving up could he gain something. If he wanted to avenge his daughter, this sword must be given to Yang Qingyuan.
"There is another key, which is the amulet that my daughter was defrauded from!"
If there was no Qin Emperor's secret collection, Meng never thought that Yang Qingyuan would continue to pursue this matter. But after he handed one of the keys to Qin Emperor's secret collection to Yang Qingyuan, even if there was no case of Li Shou, Yang Qingyuan and Zhou Ting would
We will continue to investigate.
For the sake of the First Emperor’s secret treasure and for the sake of the stability of the country, Zhou Ting will definitely fight to the death with those caught in the trap!
In this way, my daughter’s revenge can be avenged!
Yang Qingyuan also knew what Meng Jue was thinking, but it was a conspiracy. As long as he took over this Tianwen, he would naturally stand on the opposite side of Luo Sheng.
Luo Wang wants the Tianwen in Yang Qingyuan's hand, and Yang Qingyuan wants the key in Luo Wang's hand.
No one will retreat from this step.
If it were anyone else, there might be a chance for cooperation, but Yang Qingyuan is the guardian of the Great Zhou Sheji, and Luo Wen is the subverter of the Great Zhou world. The natural opposition leaves Yang Qingyuan with the only choice left to destroy Luo Wen!
Zhou Ting went all out to pursue the investigation, relying on the current strength comparison between the two sides! Luo Sheng had no chance of winning. Meng Xue's revenge would naturally be avenged.
It’s a very unsolvable calculation! But it needs to be based on a premise: the person who killed Mengxue was indeed the one caught in the trap!
"Then what's the other key?!"
Yang Qingyuan asked curiously.
"Being entrusted to heaven, you will live a long and prosperous life!" Meng Jue paused and continued, "The remaining secret key is a piece of jade polished from a corner of the national jade seal - He's Bi!"
The national jade seal is the supreme symbol passed down from ancient times.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, when Wang Jujun usurped the throne, the Queen Mother of the Han Dynasty angrily cursed him, threw her seal to the ground, and broke a corner of it.
The jade in the Mengxue amulet was probably polished from this incomplete corner.
Yang Qingyuan did not expect that the two most important treasures in the Qin Palace were hidden in a small squire's home in Wannian County.
Yang Qingyuan said solemnly to Meng Jue, "I understand what you mean! Don't worry, whether it's for the promise, for the truth, or for the world to stop fighting, I will investigate! Your daughter's grievances will eventually be vindicated!"
"Thank you, Mr. Yang!"
Meng Jue, who was sitting cross-legged on the futon, stood up and bowed to Yang Qingyuan to express his gratitude.
"Don't worry, thank you! I have two more questions!?"
"Sir, please tell me. The common people will tell you everything they know!"
"Does Young Master Ziying still have any descendants in the world?!"
This issue is very important. Ziying is the eldest son of Fusu, and his direct descendants are the direct descendants of the First Emperor. If such a person is used to make an issue, there will still be a lot of trouble.
When Meng Jue heard this, his expression suddenly became sad, "Master Ziying's son died at the age of thirty. He originally had a grandson, but because we failed to protect him, he was hunted down in a snare! His wife and daughter wanted to
She fled to the northern foot of Zhongnan Mountain, and when we found her, the little princess had disappeared."
"You haven't looked for it?!" Yang Qingyuan expressed doubts about this.
"Looking! But not found! It's so difficult to find a child in the vast Taiyi Mountain of Chongyang. I only know that the little princess was only two years old at the time, and she had a jade pendant with Li characters left by her mother. If the little princess is still alive,
By now I should be eighty-eight in my twenties!"
The surname Li was once the surname of the former Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. A twenty-eight-year-old woman named Li. There are not only 100,000 but also 80,000 people in the world. How can I find her?!
Yang Qingyuan smiled slightly and was noncommittal!
Then, Yang Qingyuan continued to ask, "Second question, did the 'Li Shou' who had a lifelong private life with your daughter leave anything behind!?"
Meng Jue immediately replied, "Yes!? My daughter once left a fan pendant of that person! After my daughter's death, someone once sneaked into the house and wanted to find this white jade fan pendant. But I had already hidden it in the secret room and asked
We had the masters from the same sect of the Meng family protect us, and after the first failure, the infiltrators never came again."
After finishing speaking, Meng Jue walked aside, took out a white jade fan pendant from a hidden compartment, and handed it to Yang Qingyuan.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Meng, for telling the truth!"
Tonight’s harvest far exceeded Yang Qingyuan’s imagination!
----------------
In the city of gods.
The arrogant man in brocade clothes was kneeling on the ground and trembling.
Everyone can clearly feel the anger of the people sitting on the main seat.
"Tell me! What other outrageous things have you done!?"
"Brother! It's really gone! This is what I do!"
The man in Jinyi stood up and wanted to defend himself, but was stopped by a sharp shout!
"Kneel down! You beast! Nearly a hundred people lost their lives at your hands, and you still have the nerve to say that this is it!?"
The person in charge dropped the tea cup to the ground with a bang!
"There is no need for Yang Qingyuan to investigate! I will tie you up today and send you to Dali Temple! In case you do anything unscrupulous again!!"
When the man in brocade saw that the person in charge was furious, he immediately grabbed the ground with his head and said loudly, "Your Highness! I am not doing it for myself! I am doing it for Your Highness!"
The man in Jinyi spoke very fast and kept saying, "What is the Qin Emperor's secret treasure? With His Highness's blessing, I can't make any money, so I have to covet that little money? What I want is the immortal elixir in the Qin Emperor's secret treasure."
!!”
"What did you say?! The elixir of immortality?!"
With just one sentence, the expressions of the people above the chair changed instantly!
