The heavy rain lasted all night and stopped until dawn.
But the sky is always dark, and gray clouds are piled up, which makes people feel heavy.
The wonder that briefly illuminated Kyoto last night naturally aroused heated discussions among the people, and there were many different opinions.
Qi Ping went out in the morning and took a walk around Nancheng, and heard at least six versions.
"In this era, the spread of news is too late, and it is entirely dependent on word of mouth, and it is distorted. Well, I think I can run a newspaper."
During lunch, Qi Ping thought to himself.
There were newspapers in this era, but only the "di newspaper" that conveyed the news of the imperial court. It did not appear in the past and was restricted by printing technology. Now, it is a good time.
But there is no hurry. The current task of Hexao Bookstore is to take advantage of the popularity of the poetry club to quickly grow bigger and make profits.
For this reason, Qi Ping referred to the business model of later generations and gave Fan Er several methods.
For example, "franchise stores" and other promotional methods are left to the other party.
Fan Er was shocked and full of energy. He didn't eat lunch at home. He threw the matter of the Hexao Bookstore to the recruited staff and ran out all day long to discuss business.
"I'm full, I'll go to the yamen." Qi Ping put down the bowls and chopsticks and said to Qi Shu.
Then change into the dried brocade robe and lead the horse into the inner city.
...
Last night, I went home from shifts to the early morning of the night. According to the rules, I just arrived at the yamen in the afternoon.
Qi Ping was curious about what happened last night, and it was very fast.
When I passed through Taochuan River, I saw the turbulent river water, which showed how heavy the rain last night was.
As soon as he entered the door, he happened to run into Yu Qing. The latter's eyes lit up and he grabbed him:
"Follow me, the lord of the tutor wants to see you."
Qi Ping's heart suddenly broke out and thought that he was finally here.
"Have you punished me?" Qi Ping asked.
Yu Qing looked complicated and said, "You will know when you come."
What, it was so mysterious... Qi Ping was confused and honest, following Yu Qing and entered the backyard of the yamen.
The second time I came in, the spacious courtyard was bright and the water in the pond was overflowing, the lotus leaves were stretching, and the crystal water droplets rolled.
There are koi swimming in the pond.
In the Chunfeng Pavilion, there were not only Du Yuanchun, Hong Lu, who were wearing black and red brocade robes, but also accompanied him, who was wearing a pretentious and honest robe between his eyebrows.
"Sir, bring it to you." Yu Qing bowed.
Qi Ping was about to salute, but saw the middle-aged man raising his hand to stop and staring at him calmly:
"What you committed in the Ministry of Justice can be big or small. Now there is a chance. If you can do it well, I will not only fight you for this matter, but also reward you."
Qi Ping was stunned. Unexpectedly, the Sishou spoke so bluntly.
Shouldn’t the big boss in the court be confused and marveling about my own mystery?
This boss is really different from ordinary court officials.
Qi Ping simply said: "Sir, please speak, you must do your best to be a humble job."
Du Yuanchun nodded, as if he was satisfied with his straightforward answer, and said, "Do you know why the Kyoto is bright last night?"
Qi Ping shook his head honestly: "I don't know the humble position."
Du Yuanchun said: "There is Shoushan in the northeast of Kyoto, which is the location of the imperial tomb. Last night, a thief took advantage of the heavy storm and broke into the imperial tomb, and made a mistake in the plot, which triggered the forbidden magic circles in the tomb. This phenomenon occurred.
Now, the thief is unaware of the life and death. During the morning court, His Majesty was furious and ordered the Ministry of Justice, the government office, the Ministry of Punishment and other offices to immediately start an investigation.
You have made great achievements and are very talented in solving cases. You will be responsible for this matter. You should arrange everything and act cheaply.
The imperial tomb will be opened in the afternoon, and the other yamen will also go there. If you make a little preparation, you can bring people there."
Ah... the ban on the imperial tomb was opened... There are thieves sneaking in, are they robbing the tomb? Why are they going there... Qi Ping was confused by the huge amount of information and asked:
"Have you lost something in the imperial tomb?"
You can't just kill someone... that's too supernatural.
Du Yuanchun said calmly: "It has never been stolen."
Not lost? That means the tomb robbery failed... Qi Ping thought, and wanted to ask a few more questions, Du Yuanchun said:
"It's not too late, don't miss it. If you have any questions, Yu Baihu will tell you on the way. This time, I will make efforts from multiple parties, so don't embarrass the yamen."
"I accept the order." Qi Ping said goodbye and left with Yu Qing.
After the others left, Hong Lu worriedly said, "Sir, is it too rash to hand over such a major event to him?
Du Yuanchun glanced at him: "Or why would you go?"
Hong Lu waved his hand quickly.
Thinking about the feat Qi Ping made in the yamen over the past two days, I feel that there is indeed no one more suitable than him.
Well, maybe the adults have not made a judgment for a long time, so it is because they are cherishing their talents. They think that they should give him a chance to make meritorious service and avoid punishment.
This time, it's a good opportunity.
...
forecourt.
When Qi Ping returned to the courtyard, he immediately summoned Jinyi, Pei Shaoqing, Hong Jiaojiao, Daxun Captain and others who were familiar to the hall and set off together.
"Anyway, it's just an exploration site, not a fight, why are you asking so many people?" Qi Ping thought clearly.
When everyone heard this, it was not surprising. Most of them knew that something happened in the imperial tomb, so it would be natural to leave it to the Pacification Department to deal with it.
When it comes to investigating the case, how can there be more suitable for the entire yamen than Qiping now?
"Go away quickly, don't rob the other yamen first."
Hong Jiaojiao, who is heroic and has a high ponytail, is particularly excited. This girl is extremely enthusiastic about participating in major events.
In my mind, I began to fantasize that I would show my power in the case and suppress the flush scene.
Well, the reason why she applied for transfer was to "teachers are good at skills and skills to control each other."
I was not in a hurry, why are you excited... Qi Ping rolled his eyes, everyone rode their horses and rushed to the imperial tomb at full speed, which was not convenient for communication.
...
After half an hour, we arrived at Shoushan.
As soon as I saw that the mountains and rivers after the rain were solemn and the sky was covered with clouds. The magnificent building was almost equivalent to a small city, and it is said that it could accommodate millions of people.
At the foot of the Imperial Mausoleum, there is a huge stone archway at the entrance. Inside, it is the "Shendao" on the central axis of the building.
During the three hundred years of the empire, the tombs of emperors of all dynasties were divided into the right and left of the Shinto. At the end of the Shinto is the underground palace of Emperor Taizu's tomb.
At this moment, outside the stone archway, the imperial guards were lined up and had not yet opened. From a distance, you can see the officers from the Ministry of Justice and the government office.
"Go slowly, boss, tell me the situation first." Seeing this, Qi Ping slowed down his horse and turned his head to ask.
Yu Qing nodded and said, "What do you want to ask?"
"Let's talk about this tomb first, and there are restrictions." Qi Ping said that he had to master the basic information first, otherwise he would be unable to reason.
Yu Qing said: "The imperial tomb was built three hundred years ago when Emperor Taizu was in power. After Taizu passed away, he was buried in the ancestral tomb.
In the past, Taizu conquered the world and made countless enemies. In order to avoid peace after death, the first Dao Sect took action and set up a large formation in the ancestral tomb, which could absorb the vitality of heaven and earth by itself.
Once the underground palace is attacked, the formation will be activated and will release the extremely powerful ban, which will be as powerful as the five-level sacred domain powered by the powerful…”
Is the name of the five realms called "sacred realm"?... I capture knowledge points smoothly, indicating that I have learned it.
Before that, he only learned about the three realms.
"So, last night, the thief attacked the underground palace of the ancestral tomb? It caused the ban to be stimulated?" Qi Ping said as if confirmation.
Yu Qing nodded and said:
"Yes, the ancestral tomb ban is the strongest defensive method. Logically speaking, as long as your cultivation is within the five realms, it is impossible to resist it. When the thunder pool swept across, all life will be turned into ashes.
In fact, last night, some of the tomb guards were burned into ashes directly under the thunder and fire.
So, there are no remains of corpses in the imperial tomb at present. In my opinion, the thief will probably turn into ashes early."
...Then what else can I check? Is it that I have the identity of a bunch of gray?
Well, even if you dare to invade the imperial tomb, you really need to check it out even if it turns into ashes... Qi Ping thought about it, but he always felt that it was not that simple.
With the help of the first rain in summer, I sneaked into the imperial tomb. No matter how I look at it, I was planning to do it, and I just died like this?
Du Yuanchun’s original words are “a thief who knows life and death”… Well, there is a secret here.
Flush makes guesses based on intuition.
