One of the main goals of Mingchen and Bohu from the beginning was to pass on the national jade seal.
The inner palace is very strict. Only the emperor knows where the imperial seal is hidden. It''s not easy to know where the imperial seal is hidden. Even if Xiangri dragon, Wei Xingchao and Du Ming are on the emperor''s side, they can''t hear it.
Therefore, Mingchen came to the great prince who is most hopeful to become the prince, supported him and won the absolute trust of the great prince. When the Grand Prince becomes the prince and returns to the Imperial Palace in the capital, he can follow the prince and quietly investigate the location of the imperial seal.
Although the crown prince has not found out where the emperor''s imperial seal is hidden, and is not even sure whether it is hidden in the imperial library, Mingchen has long determined that the emperor hid the imperial seal in the imperial library. While waiting outside the Royal study with the prince as a nighthawk, Mingchen listens to the internal forces carefully and studies the emperor''s track inside.
Although the sound insulation of the imperial study is very good, Mingchen can still hear subtle movements. Mingchen listened carefully to the sounds inside for many times and integrated the emperor''s repeated and orderly steps into a regular walking route. It was basically determined that this was the process of the emperor taking the imperial seal, but he didn''t intend to tell the prince the secret.
When the crown prince starts a rebellion, the whole inner palace attention will be involved in the emperor. Who can guess that they will take the opportunity to sneak into the imperial study to look for the imperial seal?
The real purpose of this plan was to keep Du Ming, Wei Xingchao and others in the dark, so that they could cooperate with the crown prince to perform the play well in front of the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty without revealing any tricks. After pacifying the crown prince and letting him return to the bridal chamber, they went to rob the imperial concubines and threatened the emperor to hand over the imperial seal in the hall of Baohe. They planned to win the seal from the emperor. This realistic practice made it more difficult for the emperor and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to guess that the imperial study had been stolen.
In fact, the plan can be properly completed as long as the emperor can be controlled in the Baohe hall all the time.
However, Ming Chen and Bo Hu were careful in their design, so they kept it from their hands, so that they really thought that threatening the emperor to hand over the imperial seal was their plan. They were very careful, and the enemy couldn''t see the clue at all.
In this way, there is a layer of insurance. For example, in the event of accidents such as the emperor''s escape and the demon sect leader''s rescue, everyone''s attention is still on the escort. It can be said that it is safe to give chadili enough safe time to search the imperial study. This is also one of the important reasons why Xiang rilong has been trying to stop the emperor from giving pressure, that is, it has restrained the emperor''s attention and the experts who may suddenly appear, so he has no time to pay more attention.
The best result of their battle was that the emperor died and the crown prince ascended, and the imperial seal fell into their hands. The crown prince, the new emperor, was like a puppet.
At this time, it was only shortly after sunset when the emperor disguised himself as the emperor entered the imperial study. It was just the most appropriate time for all the bodyguards and eunuchs in the inner palace to gather in the Baohe hall to prepare for a banquet. The Emperor didn''t know that the plan would be changed by the leader of the demon cult later. But even if there was a change, Mingchen also made a remedy and turned the result of their plan into the failure of the prince''s rebellion and death. In this way, there will be no successor to the emperor, and they will win the imperial seal, and they can slowly chart the throne in the future.
Therefore, no matter what the future may be, the step of chalidian winning the imperial seal will not be affected, because all plans are built around this purpose and must be completed.
"Go straight for eighty-eight steps... The ninth five year plan is respected in the Central Plains, why not ninety-five steps..." Khalidi said to himself. He began to stroll around the door with the emperor''s height and step width. After going straight for eighty-eight steps, he just came to the Royal desk. "Eighty eight steps are just right. The ear power of Mingchen is really a little abnormal."
The emperor sat down on the Dragon chair of the imperial desk, put his hand on the carved dragon armrest, leaned back against the back of the chair, appreciated the huge imperial study, and felt the feeling of being an emperor. Then he stood up lazily.
While counting the steps, he whispered: "35-39 steps left... 69-72 steps right..."
The imperial study is too big and soundproof. It''s too difficult to distinguish positions by the emperor''s footsteps. It''s normal that there are about three steps in each long road. It happened that all the bookcases in the imperial study were neatly arranged. It was difficult for chalidi to correct the scope of these steps according to his position.
Shuttling between the tall and wide bookcases, saridi stopped by a bookcase against the wall and looked up and down.
"Here I heard the sound of the machine... What mechanism did you play with, but Mingchen couldn''t hear it."
Sharidi was not too harsh, and blamed Mingchen for not hearing the key sound. It was terrible to hear the sound through the thick wall of the imperial study.
He is not good at secret mechanism skills, but he still knows some basic common sense.
Mingchen didn''t hear how to get it out, which means it must be triggered quietly... Sharidi soon noticed that several books in the lower left corner were seriously worn, and the spine of the middle book Zizhi Tongjian was almost invisible.
"Tut Tut, it''s too obvious..." Khalidi raised his legs and prepared to kick. Later, he thought that if he kicked, there must be a good sound of footsteps. Mingchen couldn''t hear it.
So he squatted down, gently touched the spine of the book, put his palm on the Zizhi Tongjian and pressed it slightly. The five books centered on Zizhi Tongjian were pushed slowly, and Khalidi felt that each book was stuck on its own machine and stopped quickly.
Fortunately, he didn''t kick it with his feet. Each book has only a slight resistance against the machine. He doesn''t need to push it slowly to feel the subtle difference. It''s easy to push it too far. God knows what mechanism will be triggered at that time. Anyway, it''s not difficult for the palace to let experts proficient in machinery arrange deadly traps.
After chalidi pushed the book, the mechanism was touched, and the bookcase sent out a low sound of "click click", moving from the middle to both sides, revealing a door that only two people could pass through.
A dark path is displayed in front of us. Two fist sized night pearls are symmetrically inlaid on the ceiling every few meters, reflecting the inner wall of the gold brick inside. About sixty or seventy meters straight ahead, a white jade seal was placed on a high platform. From a distance, it can be seen that it is by no means an idle thing.
"Ha ha ha! It takes all your time!"
Sharidi laughed and raised his feet to go to the secret road. But just as he was about to settle down in the secret Road, chalidi suddenly stopped.
"No, I found the jade seal. What''s the use of a long string of instructions behind the dark dust?" the emperor suddenly woke up.
Yes, although Mingchen heard the sound of organic start here, but Mingchen told me that it was not over. Mingchen has integrated the results of multiple hearing and position discrimination, so he is very sure that there is nothing wrong. After this step, the emperor''s regular behavior has not ended. It''s only about half here. If the emperor''s imperial jade seal is placed in this secret path, Mingchen will never hear the footsteps that still exist behind.
Because Mingchen could not hear the emperor''s footsteps after entering the closed secret passage.
The emperor of Shari closed his eyes and calmed down. For the time being, he ignored the attractive jade seal in the secret road and turned back to continue to act according to the instructions of Mingchen.
"41-44 steps to the right... 6 steps to the left... If Mingchen hears wrong, I will laugh at him when I go back... 23-25 steps to the right..."
While walking, saridi walked by, took up a trace of wind, gently blew the Golden Jade Jiuzi bell hanging beside him, and sounded a faint crisp ring tone.
"It seems that the poor monk can''t laugh at Mingchen. Even the sound of Mingchen in the fart hall has been heard correctly." the Shah Lidi sighed endlessly. After the last instruction, he came to the back of the stairs in the imperial study.
Just now, the Jinyu Jiuzi bell, which was blown by the wind, was hanging on the buttress of the stairs.
Here, a bookcase specially made to conform to the angle of the stairs depends on the corner. Sharidi came forward to touch it and found a horizontal frame of the bookcase, with a slightly concave edge trace arc.
"Mingchen said that he heard three gentle taps... And then..."
Chalidi knocked on the top three times, and the cross frame pushed forward half an inch with a click.
Then there was another sound in the imperial study. A floor in front of the bookcase opened slowly, and a golden cloth bag was hidden in the dark grid.
"The national jade seal is hidden so insidiously!"
Saridi sighed and carefully picked up the cloth bag for fear of triggering any dangerous mechanism.
He was basically sure that the secret road he had just opened according to the instructions of Mingchen was a means of anti-theft. Even bricks and tiles in it were priceless treasures, which was hard for people to recall. Once he entered the secret path of the fake Tibetan national jade seal, Emperor Shari estimated that no matter how high his kung fu was, he would die without a burial place. What kind of killing mechanism should be arranged in that narrow space? Even Luo Jinxian can''t escape death!
Fortunately, he often plays with all kinds of rare treasures in his treasure house at the second prince''s house. He is not surprised at all kinds of treasures. Otherwise, he will be dazzled by the secret road and go in. What a damn injustice!
However, this is a national jade seal, and it can''t be too careful to hide it... With great understanding, Shari opened the bag and took out the heavy white jade seal inside and looked at it carefully
"No! This is also false!"
The emperor suddenly widened his eyes and looked at it carefully several times. He found that he had been fooled. He was so angry that he smashed the jade seal aside!
