Plus,

Lu Shisan’s official position at the moment is not low either.

All of this can prove how much Lu Shisan respects and trusts Qin Wenyuan.

Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "Lu Shisan is indeed reliable in his work."

As he said this, he winked at Fatty Zhang.

Fatty Zhang immediately understood what Qin Wenyuan meant and began to carefully inspect the Temple of Heaven, looking for any hidden mechanisms.

Qin Wenyuan, on the other hand, looked at Deshun and said at the beginning, "Eunuch, I want to know, from the beginning of the construction of the Temple of Heaven until now, has anything strange happened in the middle?!"

"strange things?!"

Deshun heard Qin Wenyuan's question, thought about it carefully, and immediately said, "Since I followed His Majesty, I have been here many times with Your Majesty, and I have never encountered anything strange."

"However, before I followed Your Majesty, I heard that something very strange seemed to have happened when the Temple of Heaven was being built."

"Something weird?!"

Qin Wenyuan raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's weird?"

Deshun shook his head, "This... I don't know too well. It was too long ago, and I didn't take it seriously at the time. After all, anything abnormal that happens in this palace is completely normal, so I didn't take it seriously either."

I think it’s a big deal.”

"If Lord Qin wants to know, I happen to know a few people who worked with me to build the Temple of Heaven. Lord Qin should be able to find out by asking them."

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll thank you."

Deshun arrived quickly, "This is not a big deal. Master Qin, please wait a moment. They will be here soon."

With that said, Deshun immediately went down to the Temple of Heaven and said something in the ear of a young eunuch, who quickly left.

Deshun did not go to the Temple of Heaven to disturb Qin Wenyuan.

Instead, he was very sensible and stood under the Temple of Heaven, quietly waiting for Qin Wenyuan's orders.

Qin Wen saw the situation and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

No wonder Deshun was able to work beside Li Shimin among such involved eunuchs.

This kind of vision is not something ordinary people can possess.

Qin Wenyuan withdrew his gaze and looked at the Temple of Heaven.

He stepped on the Temple of Heaven and could feel that the white marble ground under his feet was very stable.

There is no hollow sound.

It seems that, either, there is no mechanism under the Temple of Heaven.

Or, in order to deceive others, the agency has made it very hidden and difficult to detect using normal means.

Qin Wenyuan stood here, looking into the distance.

Standing on a two-meter-high platform, he could see through the courtyard wall and see the scene outside.

He could see the patrolling guards in the distance.

You can also see some palace maids and eunuchs walking quickly with their heads lowered.

Although the entire palace cannot be glimpsed, it can still be seen from a distance of several hundred meters to the southwest.

At this time, he found some people walking towards here quickly.

There are eunuchs and guards.

And they don't seem to be particularly young, they are at least in their thirties, or even around fifty.

these people……

Qin Wenyuan's eyes flashed.

He knew who these people were.

"Master Qin."

At this time, Deshun's voice sounded, "Sir, the people you want to see are all here."

Sure enough, these people were the ones who participated in the construction of the Temple of Heaven.

The Temple of Heaven was built more than ten years ago, and those who participated in its construction at that time were at least twenty years old.

The older ones may be in their thirties or forties.

Therefore, after more than ten years, these people will generally be quite young.

Qin Wenyuan turned around and saw a dozen people standing behind Deshun.

When Qin Wenyuan came down from the Temple of Heaven, these people quickly bowed respectfully to Qin Wenyuan and said, "I have met Mr. Qin."

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly and looked at Deshun.

Deshun said, "Master Qin, these are the people who participated in the construction back then."

"For more than ten years, the people in the palace have changed one after another, and these are the only ones left."

Qin Wenyuan was not surprised.

The life span of ancient people was generally short...

Not to mention, in this palace full of crises.

If you say the wrong thing even a little bit, it will be a dead end.

In the deep palace, it is normal for one person to die and each other to have a dog.

Moreover, the people who built the Temple of Heaven back then included not only those from the palace but also craftsmen from outside. The total number of people who built the Temple of Heaven was only a few hundred.

Therefore, it is considered normal that there are only a dozen people left in the palace now.

Qin Wenyuan glanced at their faces. In front of him, there were fifteen people in total, including five eunuchs and ten guards.

Qin Wenyuan said, "Tell me what you were responsible for at that time."

The eunuch on the left, who was about fifty years old, was the first to speak, "I was in charge of supervising the production at that time, supervising these people for Your Majesty to prevent them from being lazy and slippery."

Responsible for supervising production?!

Supervise for Li Shimin.

It seems that this person's status is not low.

At least more than ten years ago, he was quite trusted by Li Shimin.

But now, it should be marginalized.

Maybe it's because he's too old, or maybe because of something that Li Shimin doesn't like.

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly, thinking of the files he had read, and asked, "Your name is Li De?"

The old eunuch unexpectedly raised his head and looked at Qin Wenyuan, "Does your Excellency know about this slave?"

Sure enough it was him.

In the archives, there are records of those who participated in the construction of the Temple of Heaven.

Li De is the supervisor.

Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly, but he did not answer Li De. Instead, he looked at the second person and said, "What about you?"

"Sir, my servant is responsible for purchasing materials. I am responsible for buying all the things that are built."

Qin Wenyuan was about to nod when he heard the eunuch suddenly say, "Sir, a strange thing happened back then, and I don't know whether to say it or not."

Qin Wenyuan's eyes flashed.

He looked deeply at this person and said, "Say!

"

Qin Wenyuan looked at the eunuch in front of him.

This eunuch was about forty years old. Qin Wenyuan remembered that his name was Zhao Heng in the files.

During the Tang Dynasty, eunuchs could still use their original names.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Only after the Qing Dynasty did people have no personality at all. They were called Xiao Dezi, small stool, small table and so on.

At this time, Zhao Heng said, "I remember that when the Temple of Heaven was halfway through construction, officials from the Ministry of Industry came to me and told me to buy new building materials when necessary."

"The slaves were very surprised at that time, because according to the plan previously submitted by the Ministry of Works, the building materials the slaves bought for them can still be used for at least seven days. How could they be gone now?"

"So, I went to the warehouse to check, and sure enough... the building materials in the warehouse will be exhausted soon, and they can only be used for two days at most."

"But this shouldn't be done at all."

When Zhao Heng talked about the past, he still had doubts on his face. He said, "I can guarantee that the building materials purchased by me will not be deducted at all. After all, this is designated by His Majesty. No one has the courage to stand in the middle."

Withholding.”
