Chapter 32: Estrangement
It is September of the eleventh year of Yongle.
The weather has gradually become hotter.
In the past six months, I had thrown a lot of corpses into the darkroom, and at first I even dug a hole to bury them.
Later, I was too lazy to dig holes.
Now does this make me feel sick?
That's all...
let's go down and have a look.
Chen Luo's guess was correct.
What they were looking for was indeed right here in the darkroom.
Chen Luo didn't look carefully before, but this time he looked a little more carefully and found a box inside.
The box has the lotus symbol of the White Lotus Sect on it,
so it seems that they are looking for something.
Chen Luo was very curious as to what was inside and why people from the White Lotus Sect were allowed to enter the palace one after another to search for it.
When you see what's inside.
Chen Luo's pupils suddenly tightened.
That was an imperial edict.
And this imperial edict was left by Emperor Wenzong.
What made Chen Luo's expression change was the content of the imperial edict.
"If this content spreads out, I'm afraid the Great Zhou Dynasty will be in turmoil again..."
Chen Luo was now given two choices.
One is to destroy this imperial edict.
One is to leave this thing behind.
Chen Luo would not participate in any royal affairs. If it were at the beginning of time travel, Chen Luo might just throw this thing here casually, as if he had never seen it before.
But...
this time Chen Luo still shattered this imperial edict.
He was not doing it for Emperor Yongle.
But for the tens of thousands of people in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
...
Several children, three boys and two girls, came running to the library
.
The oldest one is about ten years old and
the youngest one is only about five years old.
They were playing around all the way, and when they discovered that this was a library, the older one was shocked.
He quickly stopped thinking about playing around with his younger brothers and sisters.
Instead, he became a little more reserved.
"Prince Xiao Qian of the Great Zhou Dynasty led his younger brothers and sisters into the Scripture Collection Pavilion by mistake. I hope Grandmaster Chen will not blame him!"
Prince Xiao Qian?
Chen Luo came out of the Sutra Pavilion.
Looking at the child in front of him, he nodded: "I have met His Highness and several princesses..."
...
This is the first time Chen Luo and Xiao Qian met.
A reserved,
yet somewhat overly mature child.
Chen Luo also met the prince whom he named Xiao Ping.
Different from Xiao Qian.
Xiao Ping is more lively... and his personality is completely different.
Xiao Ping loves martial arts!
Dance with swords and guns.
Aiming for the battlefield!
Xiao Qian loves reading.
Since I came to Zangshuge, I have been coming here often.
After seeing Chen Luo and not stopping him, Xiao Qian approached Chen Luo and said, "Master Chen, I heard that my father has liked reading here since he was a child. Do you still remember what books my father has been reading since he was a child?" Chen
Luo Luozheng was lying leisurely in the courtyard.
Recently, the energy in my body has become more and more concentrated.
More than half of them have turned into spiritual liquid.
Chen Luo estimated that in one or two years, he should enter Xiantian.
Hear Xiao Qian's words.
He gave up and said, "The third row of the bookcase in the southeast corner of the second floor... He keeps all the books your father reads in that place. Read them by yourself. Don't disturb our family in the sun!"
Xiao Qian nodded respectfully.
When he looked at the book in front of him, he hesitated.
Are these really the books my father read?
"Secret Pictures of the Erotic Palace", "Thirty-six Styles in the Boudoir", "Summer Story", "Secret Record of the Mandarin Duck"...
He thought that his father should have read "The Six Taoist Secrets of the Grand Duke", "Wei Liaozi", " "Taibai Yin Jing" and other books.
As a result, he has never heard of any of these... these books.
"Since Grandmaster Chen said that this is what my father sees, he is right. It may be that His Highness has not had the opportunity to learn these things yet, but it doesn't matter. If His Highness learns them earlier, he will be able to surprise his father. "
As he said that, he took out "Secret Pictures of the Erotic Palace" and looked through it.
One turn. Snapped!
Close immediately.
His face suddenly turned red.
He quickly looked around.
When he found that no one was there, he carefully opened a corner and peeked inside.
Gradually, even my breathing became a little heavier.
My father...how...how could he read this kind of book? This is wrong!
An hour later.
Xiao Qian walked out of the Scripture Collection Pavilion nervously and asked Chen Luo if he could take the book back and bring it back after reading it.
Chen Luo just let it go.
"Take it with you, take it with you, there is no need to tell our family about this."
Miss Xiao Qian watched as he left.
Chen Luo still felt a little emotional.
Emperor Yongle's son was quite studious, if nothing else.
Good thing!
...
The recent war has gradually stabilized.
But in the harem.
Today's concubine Mi Fei has been relegated to the cold palace.
When this news came out, the entire harem was shaken, and everyone was a little panicked.
This is especially true for the concubines of various palaces.
You must know that Concubine Mi is the biological mother of the third prince.
The third prince was Emperor Yongle's favorite son.
Now that Concubine Mi has been directly thrown into the cold palace, this good fortune is definitely not a good thing.
After Concubine Mi was thrown into the cold palace.
Emperor Yongle is here.
"Mi Mi is a chess piece placed by the White Lotus Sect in the inner palace."
Emperor Yongle said this almost through gritted teeth.
"This damn Emperor Jianwen, how long has it been? Why... Emperor Tianshu didn't completely wipe him out back then. Did he think that I, like Emperor Tianshu, couldn't do it?" Chen Luo just listened quietly
.
Until Emperor Yongle asked Chen Luo something.
"What exactly is Emperor Jianwen looking for in the harem? Does Eunuch Chen know?"
he asked Chen Luo.
Eyes on him.
Chen Luo also looked at him. After a long time, he smiled slightly and said: "Your Majesty, you are overthinking. We are just a eunuch. We have never even seen Emperor Jianwen. How do we know what he is looking for?" Emperor Yongle laughed and said, "
Chen
Luo My father-in-law is right, but no matter what he is looking for, it makes no difference to me!"
Emperor Yongle left.
Looking at Emperor Yongle leaving, Chen Luo sighed slightly.
Concubine Mi was thrown into the cold palace, and her identity as a saint of the White Lotus Sect was discovered. So Emperor Yongle definitely knew very little about what the White Lotus Sect was doing.
Then he naturally knows that many assassins have disappeared in the past six months.
Where did these go...
and how did they disappear without anyone noticing?
Apart from myself, there are very few people in the harem who can do it.
Maybe he was suspecting something.
Or maybe I'm just overthinking it.
But he understands.
From today on, Emperor Yongle can only be Emperor Yongle.
He will no longer be the Xiao Jing he knew back then.
Maybe this is the emperor?
"I'm afraid this harem is going to be in chaos."
Chen Luo wondered if he should go out for a walk.
Since time traveling to the present, Chen Luo has not even left the palace.
Now is the best time to go out for a walk.
after all.
Out of sight out of mind.
But before going out... Chen Luo found Zhao Chong.
Zhao Chong is already sixty this year and can leave the palace as long as he wants.
As a member of the eunuch team that the harem first met, he is also the only close friend who is still alive.
Chen Luo still hoped that he could leave this place of right and wrong in the harem.
Live a few more years.
But what Chen Luo didn't expect was that Zhao Chong refused.
