The next day, Mingruo and Si Haochen first sent Xiaotuanzi back to Yunwu Villa, and then took a boat to patrol around the fiefdom.
His Royal Highness, Prince Yun, hardly ever sits in the fiefdom. There are people who are conscientious and devoted to their duties, and naturally there are those who are doing nothing but doing whatever they want. Si Haochen has dealt with a number of 'worms', and the fiefdom is quite well-educated and prosperous.
These days, Si Haochen occasionally studied the scheming lock that he had confiscated from Prefect Cheng, but he never opened it.
"This is somewhat interesting." Si Haochen had to admit that this scheming lock was the most complicated he had ever encountered.
"Still can't open it?" Mingruo looked through the medical books in front of him, and occasionally wrote down a few "ancient prescriptions" in his notebook, planning to refine them when he had time to test the efficacy of the medicine.
"Yeah." Si Haochen has tried more than a dozen methods, but is always stuck on one step.
"Why don't you let me help you look at the whiteboard?" Mingruo suggested.
"He can pick locks?" In Si Haochen's opinion, the weapon spirit's mind was not very bright.
"He can go in and see what's inside, or what mechanisms there are." Mingruo didn't expect Baiban to unlock the door, but as a 'built-in camera', it should still be usable. (Whiteboard: I feel offended.
It’s here.)
"Okay." Si Haochen felt that this method was very wonderful.
Whiteboard expressed dissatisfaction that he had to be put into the 'small box' before he was dead. But when he saw the deep look in the purple-eyed man's eyes, he was very willing to put it into the 'small box'.
"There are some letters inside. There is nothing written on the envelope. The paint is quite special, like an eagle. The mechanism inside...well...it's so frustrating..." The whiteboard has obviously been squeezed into a smaller space.
The voice was a little suppressed, "There are many parts in it...can't explain..."
"You come out first." Si Haochen asked the whiteboard to come out and explained the principle of 'scheming lock' to it in detail.
Baiban tried very hard to understand, but he was still confused and confused. He shook his heavy head and said, "Can I not learn?"
"No...can...you..." Mingruo shook his finger at the whiteboard, "When you forced me to make alchemy, my head was much heavier than yours now." (Mingruo put his hands on his hips: Yes, sister is so vindictive.
!)
"But...I can't learn..." The whiteboard was broken and the jar was broken. Anyway, this man was not his master, and he could not force him to communicate with his spiritual consciousness.
"If you can't learn it, I will throw you into the medicine cauldron and refine it for seven to seventy-nine days." Mingruo threatened.
"I really can't learn..." Baiban begged for mercy.
"Nine-nine and eighty-one days." Mingruo continued to add more money.
"..." Bai Ban deeply reflected on whether he had treated the master too badly before, or how could the master be so cruel...
"How about we spend one hundred and eight days together..." Ming Ruoyou said quietly.
"I was wrong, learn now, immediately, immediately!" If the whiteboard had a physical form, I would have been scared to death.
As a weapon spirit, it was refined by the medicine cauldron. Not only would it not die, but it could also play a role in tempering. When it first took shape, it was tempered in the medicine cauldron for forty-nine days. The pain that penetrated deeply into the soul
, I shudder to think about it now.
After Si Haochen's 'teaching', not to mention the whiteboard of 'when there is pressure, there is motivation', even Mingruo has roughly understood it. Now give her a simple 'scheming lock', and it should be possible to unlock it.
"Okay, let's try to open the lock now." Si Haochen picked up the scheming lock again and quickly solved the steps that were stuck before.
Whiteboard got into the small space where the mechanism was hidden, and began to give instructions: "A little to the left... No... It's not even close... A little to the left..."
Si Haochen pondered for a moment, turned his wrist, and shook the wooden box a circle and a half, then heard the sound of the balls falling into the slot: "That's it."
Generally, the "scheming lock" moves up, down, left, and right to unlock. I didn't expect that part of the "track" of this "scheming lock" rotates. No wonder it keeps getting stuck here.
After passing this level, Si Haochen quickly opened the 'Scheming Lock'. There was a stack of letters inside, tied with a silk ribbon. Si Haochen untied the ribbon and picked up the top letter.
There was indeed nothing written on the envelope, only a lacquer seal. Since it had been opened, it was basically unclear what the pattern was. Si Haochen didn't know how the weapon spirit recognized the 'eagle'.
Si Haochen pulled out the letter paper inside, which gave an order for Governor Cheng to prepare three million taels of gold as soon as possible... Si Haochen saw the signature seal at the end of the letter and raised his eyebrows - it was neither the third child nor the third child.
Lao Wu!
Ming Ruo also leaned next to Si Haochen to read the letter. The private seal was very abstract, and he said very uncertainly: "Li? Ye? Yu? Ye Yu... Teasing? Are you sure you chose the name seriously?"
"Ahem, it's Li Tianyu..." Si Haochen flicked his wife's forehead.
"If you don't come, you won't be able to read, and you still beat me!" Mingruo said angrily, "What if you beat me stupidly?"
"I will support you for my husband." Si Haochen kissed the spot where he played just now.
"Alas alas... please pay attention, there are still people here!" Baiban considers himself ideal and ambitious, and refuses to eat dog food.
Si Haochen glanced at the whiteboard coolly: "Are you a human?"
"..." Okay, I am indeed not a 'human being', but this is very harmful and a bit insulting.
"The whiteboard performed very well this time. You can play outside for another day, but no one can see it..." The whiteboard is wandering around like a ghost now, which is really scary.
"Okay~" Before Mingruo could finish her words, the whiteboard floated away.
"Um..." Even if you let him chase someone, he might not be able to run so fast. Forget it, let's get down to business first, "Who is Li Tianyu?"
"King Beichi Dun." Si Haochen replied.
"It turns out it's him." Mingruo matched this name in his mind with the 'mixed-race man' at the birthday banquet of Emperor Xikang.
If Mingruo thinks about it carefully, he realizes that Governor Cheng is really a 'great man'! I thought he was a 'double expert' who was able to play both sides between the third prince and the fifth prince. Unexpectedly, the real master behind him was actually King Beichi Dun. This is
'Three ingredients are carefully made'!
Suddenly, Mingruo's occupational disease broke out - he began to analyze that Cheng Taishou was a big pervert. Is it related to the usual 'work pressure'? With the degree of his abnormality, psychological counseling should be useless.
Consider electrotherapy...
"We have to return to the imperial capital as soon as possible." Si Haochen read the remaining letters carefully. King Beichi Dun was afraid that he had a big plot.
"Oh." Mingruo nodded, should we set off directly from here?
"No, we have to go to Xunzhou City again. If the Ministry of Punishment escorts Prefect Cheng to Beijing, I'm afraid he won't be able to enter the imperial capital alive." Prefect Cheng is already useless, and King Beichi Dun will probably not let him live anymore.
