Bing'er thought she could go down in the afternoon, but she never imagined that the inside of the corridor was like a steamer, and there were too few ventilation holes, so the heat dissipation was very poor.
"I think we should talk about it early tomorrow morning." Qin Qiong suggested. Although Bing'er wanted to go at this time, Tong Zhang refused to agree, so Bing'er had to compromise.
Early the next morning, the corridor was burned black. After Bing'er and Tong Zhang went down, they found that they could no longer pursue Lin Yi's footprints. However, the fire also destroyed many mechanisms.
Make their journey a little easier.
But until they reached the end of the passage, they didn't find Lin Yi. Bing'er and Tong Zhang looked at each other, what was this passage built for? Was it specifically designed to deceive people? It ended like this?
"Where did Xiao Yi go?" Bing'er murmured. The corridor was only so long in total, and except for a few turns, there were no side roads, but Lin Yi just disappeared like that?
Tong Zhang didn't know how to reply to Bing'er, and he didn't know where Lin Yi went, and he just disappeared inexplicably.
Then they returned and reported it to Qin Qiong. Qin Qiong, who did not believe in evil, personally led the soldiers down the corridor, observing and searching bit by bit, but still found nothing.
No one thought that the real passage would be under the trap, so for them, this tunnel was specially used to deceive people.
"Go back and recover first. Maybe Xiaoyi has already left here." Qin Qiong said.
"Impossible, there are no traces of Lin Yi's return." Bing'er shook her head to deny Qin Qiong's guess.
"Then how can we explain that there is no one in the corridor?" Tong Zhang frowned, unable to figure it out.
"There must be some secret that we haven't discovered yet." Bing'er said firmly. Disappearing into thin air? Lin Yi couldn't do it yet.
"Then let's go back and report first." Qin Qiong continued, he had to go back and report to the emperor. What to do next, you still have to follow the instructions. But it is certain that nothing happened to Lin Yi here, he just doesn't know where he went!
"I won't go back, I want to search again." Bing'er said.
Qin Qiong and Tong Zhang looked at each other, then nodded and said, "I'll leave two hundred people behind. If you need any help, ask them for help. I'll go back to Beijing first."
Li Shimin is investigating the source of the leak. He now feels that the palace is like a large sieve. Any news can leak out. Not many people know about it. Queen Changsun will not tell it. Gao Yuan next to him
He didn't have the guts either, so Li Shimin focused his attention on his daughter. After asking, he was directed to Li Tai.
Chang Le only spoke to Li Tai alone, so the news definitely leaked from there.
Li Shimin didn't question him. He just made a note of it in his mind. He was too busy to reprimand Li Tai.
And Li Tai is also very busy, busy causing trouble for Buddhism. Now that Li Shimin is supporting Taoism, who makes these great monks disobedient?
Many Taoist altars were established, and the Taoist priests under Yuan Tiangang came out to teach Laozi's Tao Te Ching. Moreover, they also told stories in a way that was very popular among the people. In just a few days, there were many Taoist priests in the Taoist temples.
Few believers.
Now those great monks couldn't sit still. The number of people in the capital is limited. If you believe in Taoism, you won't come to believe in Buddhism. In the past few days, there have been a lot fewer people coming to the temple to ask for fortune. So they also opened an altar in the temple.
Lecture.
In order to get these great monks to compromise, how could Li Tai just watch? So he arranged for a lot of people to act as hooligans and prevent people from going to the temple to listen to scriptures. Although it was done with some tricks, the effect was very good.
The monk was in a hurry and couldn't do anything.
It's impossible for them to chase down those ruffians themselves!
But after Li Shimin found out, he was a little unhappy. He didn't want his son to use such unflattering methods. He had to use some advanced methods. Even if Li Tai directly sent soldiers to guard the Buddhist gate, it would be worse than now.
So strong. At least that's what Li Shimin thinks.
Qin Qiong returned to Beijing, met with Li Shimin and described the incident exactly, but Li Shimin was very confused.
The person just disappeared, and now there is no clue at all. Where can he look for it?
Ministers such as Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling were also listening in the Manlu Palace. They also looked embarrassed. Such a bizarre thing really stumped these ministers who pride themselves on being smart.
"Your Majesty, you are lying to me!" Cheng Yaojin's loud voice sounded again at an inappropriate time.
After a day of investigation, Cheng Yaojin suddenly understood. So he ran here and went crazy.
Li Shimin looked up at the roof of the shed, not wanting to pay attention to this rough man.
Why are you so annoyed when you don't see him? You still come to question him. If this happens again, Li Shimin can't guarantee that he will hit him twenty times when he gets angry.
"Your Majesty..." Cheng Yaojin entered the door after shouting as usual.
"Eh? Are you here again?" The rough man was stunned for a moment, and belatedly realized that the air pressure in the Manna Hall seemed not right.
"Cheng, bite, Jin!" Li Shimin gritted his teeth fiercely. Why was the former Pistachio always so angry with him these days? Everything was really going wrong.
Changsun Wuji and others looked at the ground and maintained their meditative postures, not wanting to wade through this muddy water at all.
"Hehe, um... don't be angry, Your Majesty, it will hurt your health." Cheng Yaojin slyly showed a simple and honest expression, as if I am a stupid person, don't be as knowledgeable as me.
Li Shimin squinted his eyes and decided not to let him go, "You said I lied to you? What did I lie to you about?"
Cheng Yaojin looked confused: "Did the emperor lie to me? Why didn't I know?"
Changsun Wuji looked confused when he heard this. This old man could really pretend!
Li Shimin rubbed his forehead, this guy really gave me a headache.
Fang Xuanling shook her head helplessly and decided to come out to smooth things over and prevent this farce from continuing.
"Your Majesty, I thought Xiao Yi was definitely not in that corridor. He may have left through a method we don't understand. He is always very mysterious. Maybe the answer is right under our noses, but we turned a blind eye because we didn't understand it.
"Although I don't know where he went, I believe that he will come back on his own after a while." Fang Xuanling sighed. He had chatted with Lin Yi several times, and Lin Yi's words would often make him suddenly realize.
Cheerful, if he thinks about it carefully, it seems that that truth has always been placed in front of him, but he didn't see it. Maybe the darkness under the lamp refers to this situation.
Since getting to know Lin Yi, the imaginations of these ministers have been developed a bit, at least they are not as rigid as before.
"I think so too. There were no signs of fighting in the corridor, and Lin Yi was not troubled by various agencies. This proves that Lin Yi is not in danger now and must have left voluntarily." Wei Zheng said, stroking his beard.
Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes and stopped talking. The emperor's attention was finally diverted away, and he could not attract it back. As for Xiao Yi's matter, he could ask General Qin later.
"So, we have no other choice but to wait now?" Li Shimin was very distressed. Changle couldn't eat well or sleep well these past two days, which made him feel distressed. If there were no clues, she might still
I don’t know how long it will take to maintain this state of worry.
"Now we can only wait." Changsun Wuji said.
There was silence in the Manlu Palace for a while, everyone was wondering where Lin Yi would go? When would he come back, and would he be safe?
This treasure from Datang really doesn’t make people worry!
Li Chengqian's letter to Changle was sent, but before he received a reply, news of Lin Yi's disappearance reached Dingxiang.
At this time, they were having a meeting to discuss this matter, but Qin Wei, the Cheng brothers, Yuchi brothers and others did not believe the news. They thought it was too outrageous, but Li Chengqian and Changsun Chong were inclined to believe the news because
Lin Yi did not reply to them. This situation is absolutely abnormal. Fang Jun and Du He were half-convinced. For a while, they felt that what Qin Wei and the Cheng brothers said was reasonable, and for a while, they felt that the speculations of Li Chengqian and Changsun Chong were more reliable.
, it didn’t take long for them to faint!
In the end, the debate did not come to a conclusion, but Li Chengqian wanted to return to Beijing. However, Changsun Chong was firmly opposed. There is absolutely no benefit in going back at this time.
Not to mention that he could not be of much help, the emperor would definitely feel that the prince was a little impatient and left an impression of being unstable, which would be very detrimental to Li Chengqian's future development.
But what made Li Chengqian compromise in the end was not Chang Sun Chong's persuasion, but the fact that he remembered that there was still a contract between him and Lin Yi. Now that he was living well, so Lin Yi was no longer in danger? Maybe it was.
You went to do something, and you won’t be able to come back for a while? At least that’s what Li Chengqian thought.
Lin Yi was patiently teaching the craftsmen how to look at models and drawings, and by the way, he also had to take care of the fight between Ali and Wahid.
Because Faisal still did not hand over the letter, many people began to doubt whether Ali's succession to Muhammad's position was orthodox, and was it the intention of the Prophet Muhammad?
So Ali and Wahid fought fiercely. They were evenly matched. Ali's people had been promoting Muhammad's last words and designated him as his successor, but Wahid's people were questioning this statement. For a while, Medina
The Muslims were a little overwhelmed.
Lin was busy with his own affairs and rarely came out to defend himself. Even if he came forward, he would only mediate. He did not prove that Ali was orthodox. This was Faisal's intention and Ali's intention. He said it was atonement.
He should endure the ordeal, and said that if he could not solve this small matter, he would not be worthy of being Muhammad's successor.
Lin Yi was noncommittal. He had never seen anyone so willing to torture him.
In the blink of an eye, two months passed. The craftsmen finally learned to read the drawings and had basically figured out the model of the frigate. Craftsmen from other cities were also arriving one after another. Lin Yi was even more happy.
The first batch of crystals has arrived. Although there are only thirty crystals, and the quality is still very different, this can at least allow Lin Yi to build a medium-sized frigate. Plus what he has in hand, now he
At least two boats can be made.
With two ships, he may be able to sail to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, if he encounters pirates, Lin will not mind letting them taste the power of his fake Allah. Whoever dares to stop him from returning home will be his enemy!
