Rong Leng takes out the nail again.
Liu Wei takes over, but suddenly pulls up the driving window, puts the nail under the strong sunlight, and keeps an eye on it.
Just then, Liu Weigang saw that Rong Ling had put the nails away and passed by, while the curtain of the carriage was swaying, and the light outside the window fell on the corner of the nail, and there was a faint white light.
How can wood reflect light?
If it's reflective, it should be metal.
Liu Wei carefully discerned the sunlight this time. Sure enough, he saw that there was something really shining in the wood nail corner.
There is a mystery.
Liu Wei threw the Sanskrit aside, took out the scalpel he had worn with him, pointed it at the surface of the nail, and scraped it.
After a while, the wood layer of the nail was gradually scraped away by Liu Wei. Inside, there was a piece of fine iron.
Iron in wood, why?
Liu Wei's face was very attentive. She rubbed her fingers back and forth on the small iron. Suddenly, she felt that the clothes were not right.
Looking down, Liu Wei saw the strands of thread on her belt quivering.
As soon as Liu Wei's eyes brightened, he attached the thin iron to the belt, and as expected, it stuck directly.
This is not ordinary iron, but a magnet.
The compass, one of China's four great inventions, is the most familiar thing in ancient times.
What's the meaning of the magnet hidden in the nail?
Liu Wei couldn't think of it. He simply took out several soul summoning nails in the bag, but found that only two of the five nails had magnets.
Holding the two magnets alone and rubbing them, Liu Wei frowned again.
Liu Wei is not sure whether the direction he doubts is right.
People in the palace will not be killed by these religious things, but what does this nail and the magnetic block of the head represent?
Carriage all the way back to Kyoto.
When I arrived at the gate of Kyoto City, I heard the noise outside.
Liu Wei was full of thoughts on the nail. He didn't take heart or look until the carriage was stopped.
It's Qinzhong who drives after Yirong.
Qin Zhong said outside for a while, turning around, he said to the two people in the car, "my Lord, it's from Jing Zhaoyin. It's a big event in the palace. Now there is a martial law inside and outside the city gate. No one can get in and out, my Lord. It seems that we can't get in."
Liu Wei just woke up and put the nails away. She raised her head to lift the curtain and looked out.
Sure enough, Liu Wei saw that the gate was full of guards. Although the gate was not locked, it was fenced and guarded by soldiers. No one was allowed in or out.
"What happened?" Liu Wei frowned, and when she finished asking, she didn't realize that she thought of one thing. She wondered again, "but it has something to do with the Empress Dowager?"
According to Xiang Yi, today should be the day when the Empress Dowager returned to the palace.
This is the only thing Liu Wei can think of.
Qin Zhong shakes his head: "I don't know your subordinates. Please wait a moment. I'll ask you again."
Qin Zhong's identity comes from Zhen Gemen, but now he pretends to be a bodyguard in the imperial palace.
Liu Wei wants Qin Zhong to come back, for fear of any branches, but Qin Zhong has jumped out of the carriage and walked to the guard.
If it's called again now, it seems strange. Liu Wei has to sink in her mind and wait for the result of Qin Zhong's inquiry.
After a while, Qin Zhong came back, but shook his head towards the carriage.
"My subordinates show their identity. The guards know nothing about it. However, they don't know what happened in the palace. They only say that the whole city is under martial law. I heard it's not about the Empress Dowager. She should go back to the palace in the evening. It's just after noon."
Liu Wei frowned. She really didn't understand what was going on.
Rong Leng claps Liu Wei's hand, gets up and jumps out of the car cleanly.
Liu Wei looked through the carriage window and saw Rong Ling and Qin Zhong walking towards the guard.
And the two little eunuchs of the accompanying interior office are also struggling with the guards. However, even if they show the palace order, the guards are not lenient at all. They are really carrying out the order in an honest and selfless way.
While Liu Wei was in a state of unease, he saw a carriage beside them.
The owner of the carriage was obviously curious, so he lifted the curtain and looked out. After a while, he murmured, "is that true?"
The speaker is a young man.
Liu Wei didn't know the identity of this young childe, but looking at the quality of the carriage, he also knew that it was not a rich family. Liu Wei simply began to talk: "this childe, do you know what happened?"
The young childe looked at Liu Wei from afar and pondered for a moment, then said: "I have heard it occasionally. I don't know whether it is true or not. If it's not true, I'm afraid it's a rumor, so childe, I'm sorry."
Liu Wei smiled at the young childe and said, "it's only yesterday that I went out of the city to find my cousins living near the outskirts of Beijing. Now I'm back in the city, it's like this. Since I hear the news, I think it's true. Otherwise, just one night, there's no news."The young man hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I went to the suburb of Beijing yesterday. It was late and the gate of the city was closed. So I stayed in the inn near the suburb of Beijing. Last night, a night guest knocked on the door. When I went to Jingfang, I happened to hear the night guest talking with the assistant of the inn, saying that something happened in Beijing. I only heard two ears, not all of them, What's more, I didn't think that when I went to the city today, I actually met a block. I think what the night guest said is true. "
Liu Wei asked, "what did the night guest say?"
The young childe was silent for a while, then he lowered his voice and said, "yes, there are noble people in the palace, dead."
Dead again?
Liu Wei's eyes don't feel sharp. Just then, the curtain is lifted and Rong Ling has come back.
Liu Wei thanked the young man. Then he put down the curtain of the carriage and looked at Rong Ling.
His face was a little dark, his brow was frowning tightly, and he said: "it's said in the palace that the moon sea is missing."
Princess Yuehai?
Think of just that young childe's words, Liu Wei condition reflex of ask a way: "just missing?"
Rong Ling looks at Liu Wei.
Liu Wei shook her head. "It's not my bad heart. I just want to make sure."
Allow edge to hang down Mou son, close lips for a while, just way: "perhaps, is dead."
Liu Wei doesn't understand.
"The forbidden guards said vaguely. They only said that there was an accident in the moon sea. The palace ordered the gate to be closed and the passage to be forbidden until" people "were found."
Liu Wei took a deep breath: "that..."
"Rong Leng interrupts Liu Wei:" but did not say, is to find the moon sea, or to find the murderer
Liu Wei was speechless for a while.
Thinking that there are six soul summoning nails in Princess Yuehai, Liu Wei bites her teeth. If the princess is really dead, it is
Liu Wei suddenly felt that her heart was really blocked.
