Li Cheng unlocked the mechanism lock, the Holy Majesty heard the sound, and King Yan and several envoys hurried into the palace.
The Gu family all listened as if they had experienced it themselves, nodding their heads and asking questions.
Before he knew it, he had been talking for half an hour.
Everyone can't help but wonder, what kind of treasure is inside the lion beast
At this point, the Elder was so excited that he stood up, waved his hands quickly, and sent the maids and mothers away, and the rest of the house was the master.
Then, Li Cheng stepped forward and told them, "There is a roll of parchment in there."
"Sheepskin roll! Really?" This is Master Gu.
"Shouldn't it be some kind of treasure, like the dragon and phoenix dagger that Lord Yan brought out earlier." Gu Qingci also answered.
After all, she is from a boudoir girl's family, and she is not a person who loves reading, so she doesn't think much about it.
But when Hou Ye and Second Master heard that it was a roll of parchment, their faces changed.
Most of the sheepskin scrolls are used to draw maps. What kind of maps? The underground palace or the hidden room treasure? There are too many possibilities here, so the parchment scroll is far more valuable than a treasure.
The men of the Gu family and Li Chengze obviously understood this.
Although they can only know that it is a roll of parchment, they don't know what is inside the parchment, or what is drawn.
It is impossible for the emperor to dismantle it for them to see on the spot. I am afraid they want to study it privately.
Besides, they would not be reconciled to causing my Yan people to stay there, otherwise why would they send two subordinates to follow the treasure in the palace
Li Cheng briefly explained to Gu Qingci, saying that a roll of parchment might be much more valuable than a dragon and phoenix dagger.
Because there was no warning in advance, no one expected that Li Chengze would unlock the lock suddenly.
At that time, the twenty or so people watching were only concerned about excitement, but the emperor had no time to talk to them when he came over. He just announced Li Chengze to him very happily, and talked to him for a while, the words were full of admiration, and then he started Let the servants and eunuchs send all the people out.
Only in this way can we deal with the Yan people and deal with the parchments.
First Young Master Gu said: "I guess at the most night, someone from the palace will probably send someone to pass on a message, and there should be a reward for my brother-in-law." It is impossible for the officials not to say something about this great achievement, let alone tomorrow, this matter should be reported back open.
The Gu family was amazed and sighed at the same time.
The second wife is the happiest, this is her son-in-law, and his son-in-law is promising, and the locks that other people can't unlock become simple things in the hands of the son-in-law. Once he enters the palace, he solves a big problem for the officials. If you have done meritorious service, let the officials remember that your future will definitely not be bad in the future!
"My son-in-law, God bless God, such a good thing happened!" The second wife recited Amitabha happily.
Da Furen also had a smile on her face, she is the clan wife hired by Old Madam Gu herself, so she is naturally smart and reasonable.
An ordinary person might be jealous of this matter, thinking why his son didn't unlock the lock, the uncle is still separated by a layer.
The eldest lady doesn't think so, she is very clear in her heart, if the mechanism lock is really ordinary and anyone can break it, it will not make the people of Yan country helpless for five years, and it will not make so many young talents before. And then, so it must not be a coincidence or accident that Li Cheng unlocked the mechanism, it must be his real ability.
The son she gave birth to herself knows that he is meek and has little ability. He is not such a person who is amazing and talented, but he has no ability when the opportunity is presented to him. No wonder others.
If people can see things openly, they won't be upset.
I just couldn't help thinking, I really underestimated this uncle in the past, I only thought that a Taoist came from a poor family, but I didn't expect that a poor family could give birth to a noble son, he is a powerful person.
But looking at Li Chengze's way of dealing with people, entering the palace, meeting the Holy Majesty, even now that he has unlocked the mechanism lock, he is still calm and calm, which makes people dare not underestimate him.
Who said that her niece was just a phoenix who fell into a mud pit, how could she know that in the future she would not be able to jump up with the help of her husband
It can be seen that the world is changeable and everything is impermanent, and no one can predict what will happen in the future.
In a flash of skill, the lady thought a lot in her mind, and immediately praised Li Chengze enthusiastically.
Today is destined to be an uneasy day for the Mingdehou Mansion. In the evening, people really came to the palace, and the eunuchs appeared in the Gu Mansion with the imperial decree and a series of rewards behind them.
Lord Hou led a group of people to burn incense and sit at the desk to receive the decree. The eunuchs read the emperor's rewards the same way, and after reading, they put the imperial decree in Li Chengze's hands, and everyone received the decree to thank him.
The father-in-law had a good attitude, reminded Li Chengze a few words, and said that he should not miss the time when he entered the palace every day.
Li Cheng clasped his hands together to thank him, and stuffed another purse to thank his father-in-law for his suggestion.
Yes, Li Cheng will enter the palace tomorrow night, but everyone is not worried.
The palace that Li Cheng entered with Lord Hou the next day was still led in by the servant from yesterday.
In fact, it’s nothing. You can almost guess what the emperor asked him to do. The Holy Majesty was unfamiliar with Li Cheng before, but after yesterday, someone will definitely investigate his identity and background and send it to the emperor’s desk. I will summon him again today. Naturally, I have to ask him how to unlock the mechanism.
Not only the emperor, but all the people in Yan Kingdom are waiting. The people of Yan Kingdom have never believed it to accept the reality. Now they want to see what kind of person can unlock the lock. The emperor naturally agrees.
Li Cheng was not surprised. After bowing his hands together and bowing to the emperor, he said slowly, "The secret of the organ lock lies in a math problem on the chest of that beast."
It's just because this math problem is too difficult, involving various complex formulas that need to be applied to solve the problem, and those formulas and rational numbers have not been deduced in this era, and there is no record in any mathematics book. Li Cheng took advantage of the times. He didn't need to deduce various formulas. He had the formulas in his mind and applied them directly. Because they were already calculated by others, although the problems were difficult, they were not impossible for him to solve.
In this era, whether it is mathematics, physics, Harbin astronomy and other knowledge, it is far from so advanced.
Li Chengze was still thinking yesterday, the person who can use math problems to set up a combination lock, could it be that the other party is a math lover? Or genius? Or is it someone who has the same experience as him
But it doesn't matter anymore, even if that person is from a later life, he has passed away now, and it is impossible to have an intersection with him.
Yesterday, there were many people watching. The question had already been transcribed on paper, and Li Chengze's answers and the process of solving the question were circulated and read, but almost no one could understand it.
Li Cheng couldn't explain how he came up with those formulas, so he could only conceal part of the facts at his discretion, saying that he was interested in mathematics since he was a child and had studied many ancient books, so he could solve the problem.
I thought that the emperor would suspect one or two more or less, but he didn't have any better words.
Unexpectedly, the man did not show an expression of disbelief, but fell into memory as if remembering something.
After a while, he sighed, "I remember, Mr. Shen... is also a person who is obsessed with mathematics and arithmetic," and then smiled, "At that time, Mr. Shen taught the princes and asked people to get up to answer the math questions. If you don’t come out, sir will definitely scold Mu Yu for being uneducated.”
The father-in-law who was personally serving the emperor also laughed, and jokingly said, "Among the gentlemen at that time, Mr. Shen had the worst temper. I remember that Prince Rui was scolded by Mr. Shen to the point of crying."
The emperor laughed loudly, "The fifth brother was only eight or nine years old at the time, and he was spoiled like a little girl by his mother and concubine. He couldn't stand being wronged, so he just cried."
After the emotion was over, the emperor turned his attention to Li Chengze again, and said: "Mr. Shen is not in Beijing now, otherwise I will let you see him. He loves students like you the most. He must say that you are smart. It’s not like those stupid students who are struggling to teach.”
Li Cheng saw that the emperor's tone was quite joking, and when he mentioned his Mr. Shen, he also had nostalgia for it, so he also laughed a few times, and said that Xiaomin dare not be a man.
Li Cheng was from a simple and innocent background, and he was the son-in-law of the Marquis of Mingde. He unlocked the mechanism to let the Great Ye Dynasty win a move in front of the Yan Kingdom. He studied in Fengtai Academy, and then took a test of knowledge. Seeing that he answered well, he nodded with satisfaction and told him to study hard and not to slack off his homework. He will participate in Qiuwei next year and strive to be on the list.
Seeing that the emperor was friendly to Li Chengze, others guessed that as long as this person didn't risk his life and had his own skills, he would have a bright future in the future.
This is actually proud of the innocence of the Li family. Although he is the son-in-law of the Gu family, the Gu family is already just an ordinary wealthy and honorable family. Gu Hou Ye is also an invisible figure in the court. The Gu family does not stand in line and has no privacy. The combination of several chambers makes the emperor feel at ease, and he is not stingy to treat Li Cheng better, so he might as well train him to be a man who can be made.
If it was a person with a less simple background, he might only get some rewards and a few verbal compliments. How could he satisfy the emperor sincerely like Li Chengze.
Now, the Yan people are probably the ones with the most complicated and uncomfortable moods, but words that are spoken are like water that is poured out, and it cannot be taken back.
He could only send a letter back to Yan Kingdom early in the morning and report the matter to the Lord.
But I also know that they can't let the Great Ye Dynasty take advantage of it. Only the emperor and King Yan have seen the parchment. What's inside, others still don't know.
From the looks of it, everyone was normal, and nothing tense happened.
Li Cheng guessed that if the parchment scroll was a map with a map of the dungeon inside or something else, then the biggest possibility was the cooperation between the two countries.
Why
Because the Great Ye Dynasty could not swallow it all by itself, neither could the Yan Kingdom.
And there is another one, the lion-like beast was transported from Yan Kingdom, so if there is anything in the sheepskin scroll, it is most likely to be there, or the area not far from Yan Kingdom.
In a word, in terms of geographical location, there is a 90% possibility that it is beneficial to Yan Country.
After Li Cheng came out of the palace, he first went back to the Hou Mansion, and then brought Gu Qingci back to Li's house.
The things rewarded by the emperor also went into the warehouse. They were all built-in things, and they were suitable for passing on to the family. Li Cheng smiled thinking about it.
The emperor was indeed a thoughtful person. He knew about Li Chengze's family affairs. Apart from a few precious utensils, he rewarded him with many valuable pens, inks, papers, inkstones and books.
