Chapter 196: Uncle Wu who loves to guess riddles

Views:

Bu Tang blinked, and looked at Bo Yunchong thoughtfully, "Tell me, there isn't even a ghost here, and there is nothing valuable?"

Bo Yunchong nodded, his throat rolled slightly, "Yes!"

"Is this the bedroom?" King Bo Yu took two steps back, looked around suspiciously, and finally affirmed, "It really is the bedroom! Uncle Wu's bedroom..."

The entire dormitory was empty, and the wind blew in through the door and ran out directly through the rear window.

"There is not even a bed, do you sleep on a beam?" Bu Tang pulled the corners of his lips, "Your royal family is too shabby? Your father doesn't say a word when you treat the prince so harshly? At least it is. My own son, the broken bone is still connected to the tendon!"

Bo Yunchong scratched his head, "I've never been here before, and this is the first time I've seen it. How could it be like this... How come there's no bed at all? It must be something bad done by those dog slaves. The damn things don't even have a log Leave it to the fifth child. Those who don’t know think that I have to be stingy, treat my brothers so lightly, and those historians turn around with a swipe of their pens, and I... I really jumped into the Yellow River and can’t clean it up!"

"Even if you drank the whole Yellow River, you won't be able to wash it away!" Bu Tang shook his head regretfully, "The stingy emperor who has never been seen before!"

Bo Yunchong laughed twice, "I... I am wronged!"

"It's an unjust death!" Bu Tang walked in front, with Shen Zhi and Bo Yu following behind.

The four of them walked into the empty bedroom, feeling like they were moving.

"Shen Zhi?" Bo Yu scratched his head, "I didn't hit you, you can see the edge of this place at a glance, I'm afraid it's impossible to find any clues, why don't you change places?"

When Shen Zhi first saw the bedroom with only doors and windows left, he was already prepared. It is said that people go to cool tea, but this place is empty, there is not even a table, chair and bench left...

"Originally, I also thought that there was probably no clue, but now that I think about it...but it's not necessarily true." Shen Zhi put his arms around his chest, "There are no traces on the ground, which means that even if the things in this house were moved away, it was moved a long, long time ago." Let's go, otherwise the dust on the ground will definitely have strange scratches."

Everyone nodded and agreed.

"But Uncle Huang said that he has never been here before, that is to say, even Uncle Huang doesn't know about this place, whether it has always been like this!" Shen Zhi touched his chin and walked slowly in the bedroom, "Five Uncle is a nagging and weird-tempered person in your mouth, is it possible that his bedroom is like this?"

Bo Yu agreed, raising his hand quickly, "I think that's the case! How can there be a dog slave who doesn't even let the stool legs go? It's better to leave a bed at least! Otherwise, you will be investigated, and you will be sentenced to death if you steal the property in the palace." of!"

"Everyone look for it!" Shen Zhi said, "If this place has always been like this, there may be clues in it."

Hearing this, everyone split up to look for it immediately.

Ding Quan scratched his head, "Oh my god, is this going to chew the floor?"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Cong Shan looked around, "Young master bullies you, don't cry!"

Ding Quan was startled, turned his head to look at Bo Yu who raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately bent down and lay down on the ground, inspecting every inch. The floor is very hard, and when the knuckles are tapped lightly, it sounds solid.

"Nothing unusual?" Bo Yu curled her lips, "What do I have to find... eh?"

The sound was muffled.

"Wait a minute!" Bo Yu yelled, "Here, here, it seems a little different!"

When the knuckles tapped lightly, there was a muffled sound inside, which showed that the inside was hollow.

"It's hollow!" Bu Tang pulled Bo Yu away, rolled up his sleeves, and was about to smash it.

"Be careful with your hands!" Bo Yunchong hurriedly clenched her hand, his face full of distress, "Don't hit it, don't hit it! Congshan, you go!"

Cong Shan sighed softly, silently raised his true energy, "Yes!"

With a punch, the floor instantly collapsed, and there was indeed a mechanism button inside.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, suspicious in their hearts.

What is this organ for

"Don't move yet!" After all, Bu Tang has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he signaled everyone not to act rashly, and looked around with Congshan.

And looking at Nanwan's empress, wearing a phoenix robe and a phoenix crown, running up and down in the bedroom, the picture is a little... indescribable.

Bo Yunchong patted his chest and gave a thumbs up, "See, my queen is so powerful, she is the first one for Nan Wan!"

That's right, the queen empress who can fly over the roof and walls is indeed the first one. I don't know if the ancestors of the Bo family in the ancestral hall, who know from the spring, will be angry and come back to life

"Sure enough!" Bu Tang squatted on the beam and pointed to something in the dark of the beam, "There is a crossbow here, and the arrow has been wound. I wonder if there are others nearby?"

"Be careful!" Bo Yunchong raised his head and rubbed his hands nervously, "Don't hurt yourself!"

Ding Quan rolled his eyes, the Empress Dowager is doing really well! What should be worried is the emperor himself! What's the matter, the empress must protect you!

Of course, I dare not say this.

Turning around, the emperor must peel off his skin!

"What are you looking for?" There was a sound at the door, and the queen mother was already standing at the door of the hall.

Bu Tang was startled, the bow and crossbow was already in his hand, he let go of his hand suddenly when he heard the Queen Mother's voice, and the arrow shot out with a "swish".

"careful!"

"Queen!"

"Grandmother!"

The arrow was only a hair's breadth away from the Queen Mother's face, Cong Shan felt a chill run down his spine, and the hand holding the cold arrow trembled subconsciously, almost...almost killed the Queen Mother.

"Empress Dowager!" Mo Yu hurriedly supported the crumbling Empress Dowager.

"Queen!"

"Grandmother!"

The queen mother panted and sat on the railing, looking at Bu Tang who was frowning, with a long face, "Aijia... the Aijia are half buried, and they almost died in your hands...you Tell me this..."

After all, Bu Tang is a daughter-in-law and a queen. He made a mistake at the moment, so how dare he refute it. What's more, she is not good at words, how dare she say anything now, just hurry to make up her smile!

Bo Yunchong hurriedly stroked the Empress Dowager's back, "Mother, Shun Shun Qi, Shun Shun Qi, it's all right, Xiaotang didn't do it on purpose."

"As a queen, how can..."

"Oh oh oh, that's what I, I'm used to. If I accidentally get used to it, I'll drag it back later!" Bo Yunchong hurriedly embraced him. Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been difficult to get along with since ancient times, and mother and son have no overnight feud.

Upon hearing this, the queen mother almost didn't turn around.

"Grandmother!" Bo Yu held the Queen Mother's hand, "Are you okay? The Queen Mother didn't do it on purpose!"

The queen mother panted heavily, "That arrow almost killed Aijia, what crime did Aijia do to..."

"Aunt Xiaotang didn't do it on purpose!" Shen Zhi stood there with a cold expression, "Don't blame Auntie for everything, if she hadn't taken the bow and crossbow, I'm afraid she should have shot us at this time ! This is what Uncle Wu left behind, so it has nothing to do with anyone."

"Uncle Wu?" The queen mother gently held Shen Zhi's hand, "Is what Zhi'er said true?"

"Really, truer than pearls!" Bo Yunchong nodded repeatedly.

The queen mother glared at him, "The Ai family is asking Zhi'er, the emperor must not interrupt!"

Bo Yunchong twitched his lips, if he didn't say anything, then he wouldn't say anything!

"It's true!" Shen Zhi pursed his lips tightly.

"What are you looking for when you come to Lao Wu's place?" the queen mother asked.

Shen Zhi narrowed his eyes, hesitating a little.

On the other hand, Bo Yu spoke bluntly, "Is there anything you can't say to the imperial grandmother? Shen Zhi, just say it!"

No one else dared to address him as "Shen Zhi", but Bo Yu still kept the original title, and the Queen Mother liked it. Shen Zhi, Shen Zhi, sounds like calling Shen Muxi...

Feeling slightly relieved, the Queen Mother softened her voice, "Don't Zhi'er want to say it?"

"Returning to the Empress Dowager, the Fifth Uncle gave his father an order before, and what he said has almost come true, so I want to find out the whereabouts of the Fifth Uncle and ask the Fifth Uncle for help." Shen Zhi told the truth, "Please don't stop the Empress Dowager! "

block

How could the queen mother stop it!

Even if Shen Zhi wanted the stars in the sky, the queen mother had to climb up the ladder to pick them up with her waist leaning on her stick.

"You guys want news about the fifth son, why don't you come and ask Ai's family?" The queen mother sighed softly, and dragged Shen Zhi to her side, "Come, sit down next to the emperor's grandmother, and Ai's family will tell you about your fifth uncle's those things!"

Shen Zhi hesitated, and glanced at Bo Yunchong.

"Don't look at him, he has no heart, no lungs, no internal organs, he doesn't know anything except romance, he might as well know more than your father!" The queen mother glared at the emperor, and made Shen Zhi happy by the way.

Bo Yunchong sneered, "I just don't hear what's going on outside the window."

"Come, sit!" The Queen Mother patted the seat beside her.

Shen Zhi finally sat down next to the queen mother, "The queen mother really knows those things?"

"Yes!" The queen mother sighed softly, "The Ai family knows those things, and also knows some things about his mother. Lao Wu's mother is humble, so Lao Wu can't hold her head up in the palace. A son born to a humble person, Even the late emperor doesn't want to see him!"

Hearing the word "humble", Shen Zhi's brows and eyes drooped slightly, and Bo Yu's expression was not good-looking.

"Queen, the two children are here!" Bo Yunchong reminded.

The Empress Dowager nodded, she was taught with humility, she really shouldn't have said these harsh words.

"Lao Wu's mother, who doesn't know a lot of Chinese characters, is a brute force when she enters the palace. She was arranged to be a sweeping maid in the Queen's Fengyi Palace. But the Queen has a bad temper and often punishes her. Her slaves are also worshiping the high and stepping on the low, bullying her from time to time!" The queen mother sighed softly.

"What happened later?" Bo Yu asked.

The Queen Mother continued, "Once, she was beaten half to death. Fortunately, Concubine Nan Guifei passed by and rescued her. She also asked the Queen to take her back and brought her back to Guanju Palace to raise her. Later, for some reason, she climbed up The emperor's dragon bed!"

Bo Yu's eyes widened, and Bo Yunchong was also stunned, "I've heard about this too, but I didn't expect it to have such a level. In this way, the mother of the fifth child is really heartless. Isn't this revenge for kindness? ?”

Naturally, Bu Tang didn't dare to say anything. Who doesn't know that survival in the palace depends on daily competition for favor.

It's not normal to not compete for favor.

"How can there be so much conscience in this palace!" The Queen Mother shook her head, "Shortly after, she became pregnant. The first emperor left her in this Yongxiang Palace, and no one waited on her on the day of delivery. Concubine Nan Gui invited the imperial physician to come over, and only then did the mother and child be safe."

"In this way, they owe Li Wangfu too much!" Bo Yu frowned.

The Queen Mother nodded, "Who said no!"

"What happened next?" Shen Zhi asked.

The queen mother took a breath and looked at him helplessly, "Later, the fifth child died before she was one year old, leaving the fifth child to live alone in this Yongxiang Palace, alone, with no one to take care of her." Although Yongxiang Palace is so big, in fact, this place is remote, which is tantamount to fending for itself!"

"When Concubine Nan Gui was still alive, everything was fine. Occasionally, he would send someone to take care of him, and no one else dared to really bully him. But later, Concubine Nan Gui left, and this Yongxiang Palace was no different from Leng Palace. They have all gone to high places, who will stay here to serve the hopeless master."

"Later, the fifth child grew up and slipped out of the palace quietly. After returning, he seemed to be a different person and started tossing about those weird things. At the beginning, someone stabbed the late emperor, and the late emperor sternly reprimanded him. , Lao Wu suffered a lot of crimes because of this!"

"But then..."

Speaking of this, the queen mother looked at Shen Zhi, and was a little lost in thought, "After all, there must be a cause and an effect. Your father went to the late emperor quietly. Since then, the late emperor has never cared about the fifth child. The fifth child is here In this Yongxiang Palace, after demolishing the east wall and the west wall, if someone sues the late emperor, he will be reprimanded by the late emperor, and no one will care about it as time goes by."

"Speaking of which, it's the second brother's own blessing!" Bo Yunchong rubbed his chin, "This fifth child has a wilder temper than mine, and now I don't know where he has gone, I want to find him... the world is vast, where can I go?" try to find?"

"Grandmother, who is the fifth uncle's mother?" Bo Yu asked.

Bo Yunchong hurriedly explained, "We searched all the palace records, but we didn't find out, so we asked."

"It seems to be Cao Qingzhou." The Queen Mother turned to look at Mo Yu, "Do you still remember?"

Mo Yu nodded, "The Empress Dowager has a good memory. It was Cao Qingzhou. At that time, this place was still led by the Wei family, and it was pulled back from Yingguo."

"It's Cao Qingzhou!" The queen mother thought for a while, "The war was so tense back then, Ying Kingdom captured more than a dozen cities one after another, shocking the government and the public. Later, the Wei family led the army and joined forces with the Bu family to attack left and right, and finally retreated from Ying Kingdom. .Cao Qingzhou was the first city that was taken back from Ying Kingdom at that time!"

Shen Zhi nodded, "I see!"

"Why, are you going to Cao Qingzhou?" The queen mother was very worried, "That place is too remote! Why did you take back Cao Qingzhou? It was because of the rugged mountains and complicated terrain, and the army of Ying Kingdom couldn't hold it at all. These years After that, the place is still very poor!"

Shen Zhi gritted his teeth, "Uncle Huang..."

"How about I take your Aunt Xiaotang and you..."

"Ridiculous!" The queen mother got up angrily.

Bo Yunchong kept his mouth shut. Naturally, the emperor couldn't go out of the palace to take risks.

What a pity!

"Thank you, Empress Dowager!" Shen Zhi saluted, "I will take my leave!"

"Shen Zhi!" Bo Yu hurriedly chased after him.

"Zhier? Zhier! Oh, how good this is! Did the Ai family get into trouble? Did the Ai family... shouldn't say it!" The queen mother stomped her feet anxiously, "How can he go to such a place as a child? ?”

"Is Cao Qingzhou scary?" Bo Yunchong was puzzled.

Turning around, I saw that Bu Tang's expression was not very good either.

Bo Yunchong thought to himself, could it be because the queen mother mentioned the Bu family and touched on Butang's sad things, he kept screaming in his heart, and suddenly panicked, "Xiaotang? Don't take it to heart. What happened back then Even though it was the late emperor and the late emperor who killed him by mistake, it has nothing to do with your relationship with me, so don't..."

"Zhi'er can't go to Cao Qingzhou!" Bu Tang turned and left.

"Xiaotang? What's wrong with Xiaotang?" Bo Yunchong exclaimed, and Er Er looked at the queen mother in a daze, "Queen mother, what's going on? Why are you all so afraid of Cao Qingzhou? Where is that place?"

"That's a bandit city." Mo Yu sighed softly, "Your Majesty, thieves are rampant in that place. If the little prince goes there, then what's the matter? Mountain bandits are running around, in case the little prince is hurt..."

"Your uncle, Bo Yunxiu..." Bo Yunchong turned around and ran away.

If he can't keep the only seedling left by Bo Yunxiu, according to Bo Yunxiu's temperament, he will definitely return to his soul in the middle of the night and take his life. At that time... Bo Yunxiu was crushed to death in a cave. stand up.

Don't worry, brother Huang will definitely keep this only seedling for you!

But what Shen Zhi decided to do was that even nine cows could not be brought back. He wanted to go to Bo Yunfeng, even if the people around him said it out loud, no one could stop him.

"Actually, you don't know if your fifth uncle is in Cao Qingzhou. If something happens, who is to blame?" Bu Tang stopped Shen Zhi, "Zhier, we don't have any evidence to prove that he is in Cao Qingzhou. That place is really not for you to go to, if you send troops to protect you, it will definitely alarm the court again. Zhier, let others go!"

Shen Zhi stared at Bu Tang who was squatting in front of him, his eyes were slightly red, "Auntie, I miss my mother!"

Bu Tang lowered his eyes, his nose turned sour, "Auntie wants to too!"

"I know that everyone doesn't believe me, they think I'm thinking about it every day and dreaming about it at night, but you guys don't understand, I'm really sad!" Shen Zhi choked up, but he wouldn't cry.

Dad said, a man should not cry easily.

"Zhier..." Bu Tang didn't know what to say.

"Empress, little prince!" Congshan hurried over, "Don't go so fast, the mechanism in the bedroom just now..."

Bu Tang was stunned for a moment, and Shen Zhi was also stunned.

Bo Yu patted her thigh, "I walked too hastily, I was taken aback by the emperor's grandmother, and I forgot all about it."

"Here comes the humble job!" As if conjuring a trick, he presented a box, "When you were talking, the humble job opened the mechanism, and there is a secret compartment underneath, and this box is hidden inside."

Shen Zhi was about to reach out, but Bu Tang held him back, "Don't worry, beware of fraud!"

With kindness and understanding, he silently put the box in the corner.

Bo Yunchong was stunned, "What is this?"

"Get away!" Bu Tang was impatient.

"That's great!" Bo Yunchong ran on tiptoe and hid silently around the corner, "Is this far enough?"

"Enough is enough!" Bu Tang nodded.

A left and a right protected the two children and hid in the corner, lest the box release poisonous arrows and poisonous mist or something. Hearing that there were hidden arrows in the bedroom of the fifth prince, the two of them felt lingering fears, and they failed to follow the master into the palace just now, almost...

Pulling out the hairpin from the bun, Bu Tang flicked his fingers, and the hairpin flew out quickly, and with the most precise force, he opened the box.

Everyone's eyes widened and they waited quietly.

After waiting for a long time, I was sure that there was no hidden weapon in the box before I dared to approach it quietly.

Looking forward from the good, hey, a piece of paper? !

"What?" Bo Yunchong asked.

"Your Majesty, it's just a piece of paper!" Cong Shan took it out.

"Open it and have a look!" Bo Yunchong signaled everyone not to come forward for the time being, and to see what was written on the paper before talking.

Congshan opened the paper silently, and there were only three words on it: Cao Qingzhou!

Shen Zhi straightened his body subconsciously, sure enough!

Bo Yu complained endlessly in her heart, it's over, it's over, this time it's time to go!

"Cao Qingzhou?" Bo Yunchong blinked his eyes, "This paper is all yellow, which means it wasn't put in recently. It doesn't seem to be written in ink, but rather..."

"It's cinnabar!" Shen Zhi took a deep breath, "Uncle Wu's!"

Cinnabar

Bo Yunchong nodded, he couldn't use cinnabar to draw those ghost symbols!

"So, this thing is indeed left by the fifth child." Bo Yunchong frowned, "But why is this guy so mysterious?"

"Maybe... Uncle Fifth likes to guess riddles!" Bo Yu shook his head, "You guys really tortured us juniors enough!"

Bo Yunchong spread his hands, "It has nothing to do with me, I am a good person!"

"Cao Qingzhou!" Shen Zhi took the paper and held it in his hand in a daze.

When he looked up again, his expression was so determined, this trip... is imperative!

"I'll go with you!" Bu Tang made up his mind, "No matter what, Aunt Xiao Tang won't let you have trouble. Don't worry, Zhier, I..."

"No!" Bo Yunchong said with a dark face, "You can't go!"

What if you leave and disappear

can't go...

Besides, how lonely and cold would it be for him to stay in the palace alone

no!

Absolutely not!

"Aunt Xiaotang, Zhi'er is not afraid!" Shen Zhi pursed his lips, "Zhi'er will take good care of himself, there are left and right, and there are hidden guards from the palace, Zhi'er knows what to do!"

"No!" Bo Yunchong rebuffed, "You are not allowed to go either! In case something happens, how will I explain to your mother? You, you two jujubes, are the only ones in Liwang's mansion. I lost them later, and your father returned Don't ask for my life? No, absolutely not!"

The queen mother shook her voice, and stood not far away, stomping on her stick, "Aijia also disagrees! You are not allowed to go! Then Cao Qingzhou is poor in mountains and rivers. I heard that there are many beasts in the mountains. If anything bad or bad happens, you let Aijia, Aijia How can I be sorry for your mother? No! Absolutely not!"

Everyone stopped Shen Zhi, and everyone only had the word "no" in their mouths.

Only Bao Yu curled her lips and silently raised her hand, "I support Shen Zhi!"

Everyone cast resentful eyes, which made Bo Yu feel guilty.

"You all only think for yourselves. When did you think about Shen Zhi?" Bo Yu snorted softly, "One person can't say a word, and one person can't explain it, but what about Shen Zhi? What Shen Zhi is thinking, what does he want, you guys Do you know? You adults, you only know that I am for your own good, I am for your own good, but have you all cared about what we want?"

There was silence all around, and no one answered.

Shen Zhi took a deep breath, and said loudly, "I'm going to find Uncle Wu, and do my best for my mother! Since Uncle Wu can leave these three words, it means that he may... guessed that there will be today. .I'm going to Cao Qingzhou, no one can stop me!"

Cao Qingzhou, he's on his way!

And, without further ado.
