Li Chengfeng never thought that when he looked up such documents in the library, it turned out to be three whole days and three nights!
Zhao Xiaobao, Han Tianxing and others could only see their eyes turned black and the world was spinning.
Starting from the first year of the Apocalypse, they will search for files related to Concubine Ming from the files of all the palace ladies, eunuchs, and guards. This is no longer just about finding a needle in a haystack, but to find all the files related to Concubine Ming in the haystack. Needle, can't miss even one.
How many palace maids, eunuchs and guards are there
There are three thousand beauties in the harem, so there are about three thousand people here. Counting the maids and eunuchs who serve them, there are already tens of thousands here. Plus the many guards guarding the huge Shenwu Palace, there are even more. There are as many as twenty to thirty thousand people.
The data of 20,000 to 30,000 people are all piled up together, and the time span is nearly twenty years. What is this concept
Li Chengfeng has never been as eager to have a computer and a search engine as he is now!
Moreover, Ouchi archives have always been summarized according to time and region, not according to individuals. Unless the person is a princess, prince, queen or empress dowager, it is a personal archive.
Although Concubine Ming is deeply loved, she is still not qualified to create a special file. If one day she climbs to the position of queen, all her files will be eligible to be retrieved and set up as a separate file.
Li Chengfeng stayed up for three days in a row, and he couldn't hold it any longer. Every time he turned a page, his eyes felt blurry, and the words in the book seemed to jump out and dance in front of his eyes.
Han Tianxing and Zhao Xiaobao had already staggered to the side. One of them covered his eyes with tears streaming down his face, and the other simply fell to the ground and snored.
On the other hand, Liu Sumei and Xiao Lingdang were doing well. Although Xiao Lingdang was yawning profusely, she still managed to read through the files, but her speed was much slower than before.
Beside her, a large number of documents related to Concubine Ming had been piled up.
Liu Sumei was no different from three days ago. She flipped through every piece of information in a leisurely manner, even at the same speed as three days ago. Such patience reminded Li Chengfeng that he had passed the first level of the Lingshan Sect's assessment. The situation during the ladder.
Li Chengfeng looked at Zheng Qiuyun next to him. The old man hadn't slept for three days and three nights, but he was still in high spirits. He glanced at the documents related to Ming Fei compiled by Li Chengfeng and others, and then quickly Keeping records.
Li Chengfeng took a look and saw that the notebook was full of various sketched symbols. No one except the person involved could understand the meaning.
Li Chengfeng couldn't help but said: "What can Zheng gain from arresting the head?"
Zheng Qiuyun rubbed his red eyes. He did not raise his head. He just gestured to Li Chengfeng and asked him to wait. He quickly flipped through the information and recorded it quickly.
Li Chengfeng knew that Zheng Qiuyun must have gained something, so he stopped and continued to read the information patiently and waited.
After waiting like this, another day passed. When Li Chengfeng was about to burst out, Zheng Qiuyun suddenly slapped his thigh. He rubbed his eyes and laughed loudly: "Sure enough, Zheng found it!!"
At this time, the two guys, Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing, who were hugging each other and sleeping together, woke up. They stood up sleepily, scratched their messy hair, wiped the saliva from the corners of their mouths, and said, "Yeah, yeah ?What's wrong?"
At this time, Xiao Lingdang was also sleeping on Liu Sumei's lap, snoring softly. When she heard the sound, she jumped up and shouted: "Senior sister, hurry up, there is..."
Soon, she looked around, then relaxed angrily, and said, "You haven't finished checking it yet? It's going to be the year of the monkey and the horse and the moon!"
Zheng Qiuyun laughed and said, "Don't read the rest!"
Little Lingdang was overjoyed, and quickly knelt down next to Zheng Qiuyun, leaned over to look at what he had recorded, and said happily: "What did Zheng Shenjing find out?"
Zheng Qiuyun said proudly: "Look, there is one biggest doubt in these files. This is the most unconcealable and most unconcealable doubt in Concubine Ming's entire file!"
Li Chengfeng immediately asked: "What is it?"
At this time, Liu Sumei also put down the file in her hand. She gently pinched the bridge of her nose and turned her eyes to Zheng Qiuyun.
Zheng Qiuyun turned to the front of the text he had recorded. At the very beginning, he pointed at a sketched message he had recorded and said, "Look, what is recorded here is the time when Concubine Ming entered the palace, which was the first year of Tianqi." On the 13th of the month, she entered Huanyifang, but in Huanyifang, her information record was completely blank... for ten years! Why? "
Li Chengfeng and Liu Sumei looked at each other, and he wondered: "Maybe it's because Huanyifang is so unimportant that there are no records of the people there?"
Zheng Qiuyun said in amusement: "Although Huanyifang is the most inconspicuous place in the entire palace, the birth, old age, illness and death of the maids and servants there will be recorded. But in the past ten years, there has been almost no Ming concubine. Any records! And... the most important thing is that among them, it was recorded that the servants who were assigned to a laundry room with Concubine Ming... were all killed in a fire!"
At this moment, even the yawning Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing were shocked, and their eyes immediately widened.
Li Chengfeng was shocked: "All of them died?"
Zheng Qiuyun snorted coldly and said: "This fire has been recorded and killed many people. It once caused a sensation in the capital."
Liu Sumei said softly: "But, maybe this fire is just a coincidence?"
Zheng Qiuyun showed a weird smile and said: "But... the weird thing is... this fire happened in the tenth year of Apocalypse... that is... there is a clear record of the year when Concubine Ming first met His Majesty and was favored by him. "
After saying this, the entire Tibetan archives became extremely quiet, and everyone seemed to have stopped breathing!
Li Chengfeng's hair stood on end for a moment, and he hissed: "What do you mean..."
Zheng Qiuyun twirled his short beard and said: "If Zheng's guess is correct... it is very likely that Concubine Ming did not enter the palace in the first year of Tianqi as recorded in the ultimatum!"
Li Chengfeng said excitedly: "This fire was to silence people and conceal the exact time when Concubine Ming entered the palace?"
Zheng Qiuyun nodded and said: "The palace is too big. There are many maids who have never even met a few people in their lives. In this harem, if you are sold into the palace at the age of ten and hide in Huanyifang in the palace for a few years, it is really not easy. Who could see this person? Only those who lived with her knew about this person's existence. As it happened, Concubine Ming recorded that she was assigned to Room No. 17, Diren, Huanyifang. There were a total of ten palace maids and servants who worked and lived with her, and these ten people, including her nanny... were all burned to death in the fire!"
Liu Sumei said: "But based on such speculation, it only proves that Concubine Ming is indeed more suspicious, and Concubine Ming cannot be held accountable!"
Zheng Qiuyun said with a chuckle: "Look again, since Concubine Ming was the laundry maid of Huanyifang, what qualifications and abilities does she have to meet His Majesty by chance? It is said that the person who led His Majesty to see Concubine Ming was a The eunuch named Huang Yun... And this eunuch suddenly left the palace after Ming Fei became famous... "
Li Chengfeng stood up suddenly and said: "Find this eunuch named Huang Yun immediately!!"
Although they had not slept for four days and four nights, Zhao Xiaobao and Han Tianxing were in high spirits. They stood up immediately and said, "Where is this man? I'll get him!"
Zheng Qiuyun said: "According to the records, he lives on Zhongguan Road like most of the old eunuchs who left the palace. If you go and ask around, you should be able to find him. Remember, be quick! If you are afraid that you will go slowly at this time, just late!"
Li Chengfeng also said: "Okay, I'll take them there!"
Without hesitation, the three of them quickly left the archives building and rushed towards Zhongguan Road, regardless of their fatigue.
Zhongguan means eunuch, Zhongguan Road. As the name suggests, all the people living on this road are eunuchs. This is also the only street in Shenjing that does not start with the word "神". The true meaning is naturally because of the low status of eunuchs. Despicable, not worthy of the word "god".
Most of the eunuchs who left the palace no longer had the power they once had. In order to survive, they lived together, hugging each other for warmth and supporting each other. Over time, they gradually formed a rather large and strange group.
When Li Chengfeng and others galloped into Zhongguan Road, they followed the address they found and headed all the way to where Huang Yun lived. But as soon as they arrived at this lane, they saw a funeral procession beating gongs and drums from inside. When they came out, a group of old and young eunuchs wearing sackcloth and filial piety gathered together and burst into tears.
Li Chengfeng's heart skipped a beat when he saw this. He quickly dismounted, grabbed one of the eunuchs, and asked anxiously: "Who is mourning in front of you?"
This eunuch looked to be in his fifties, with a fair face. He wiped away tears and said, "It's Huang Yun, Eunuch Huang..."
Li Chengfeng was stunned and felt shocked and angry!
It’s still a step too late!
