Chapter 228
"Brought back from Pingle Mountain? Why is this thing in Pingle Mountain? Tell me, what is the use of that crystal bar?"
"This should be something Li Shaojun used when he built the Bailiang Terrace. As for the specific purpose, I don't know. Maybe Brother Xiaofan knows." Wang Jingyan hesitated. She didn't know how Geng Xiaofan explained it to Yang A, so she had to push it aside.
To Geng Xiaofan.
"Mysterious and sneaky! If you say he knows, he says you know, if you two don't tell the truth, you will get into trouble sooner or later!" Yang A seemed to be angry, and didn't ask any more questions, and put the Vermillion Bird Jade Tablet directly into his arms.
.
"Sister, please return this jade token to me. I haven't figured out its use yet." Wang Jingyan became a little anxious when she saw that Yang A seemed to be trying to "corrupt" the jade token.
"Then tell me, what do those crystal bars measure?" Yang A was unmoved and asked.
"Measurement? Yes, it's for measuring the ecliptic!" Wang Jingyan's mind was spinning rapidly. Since Yang A could say such a professional term as "measurement", it must have been said by Xiao Fan. She immediately found a "reasonable" reason
.
"Oh! Measuring the ecliptic, what is this jade tablet used for?" Yang A seemed to be stunned for a moment.
"Hey! I can't explain it for a while, but it's useful anyway." Wang Jingyan didn't dare to explain more, and she didn't think about how to explain it. Moreover, she had no chance to "collude" with Geng Xiaofan, just in case the two said things differently.
, that would be troublesome.
"It's useless now. I advise you not to engage in those crooked ways and not to be too curious. Bailiangtai is a matter for the court, and there is no room for mistakes. Don't be too troublesome!"
"No, I, I just want to build the platform and restore it to its original appearance." Wang Jingyan defended.
"Sister! Let me remind you that Xubailiangtai did not build my mansion. You must not be meddlesome. Just do your own thing well and never meddle in other people's business!"
"Nosy?" Wang Jingyan was a little confused.
"The construction of the palace is in charge of the Young Mansion, and the imperial court has its own system. Weiyang is the head of the hundred palaces, and there must be no mistakes. I am recommending you to go, just to ask you to account for people and property, and not to interfere with other things!"
Wang Jingyan understood that what Yang A said was indeed for her own good. The construction of the palace has its own set of rules. Each government and department has its own strict scope of responsibilities. If you cross the line, you will definitely be in trouble.
"Okay! But sister, please give me the Four Phases Jade Tablet first. When I figure it out, if I really like it, I will give it to you." Wang Jingyan didn't want to waste any more time. She only cared about the Four Phases Jade Tablet and the crystal cone.
.
"You still don't understand what I mean?" Yang'a seemed a little annoyed and stood up, "These four-phase jade tablets belong to Weiyang. It is a great kindness for the Queen Mother not to find out why they are in your hands. How can you still
Do you want to be stubborn?"
"No, what does this have to do with the Queen Mother?" Wang Jingyan felt something was wrong, why did the Queen Mother know about this matter.
"Of course it's relevant! You don't know the purpose of these four-phase jade tablets, but the Queen Mother knows it very well!"
"Ah! Does she know this? What is this jade token used for?" Wang Jingyan was shocked.
"Emperor Xiaowu respected Confucianism and Taoism, and got acquainted with Li Shaojun, an immortal Taoist. Li Shaojun built a platform and altar for the late emperor, honoring the four phases of green dragon, white tiger, red bird and Xuanwu. He selected the world's most skilled craftsmen and created statues to subdue the four poles and calm the world.
.Legend has it that a villain is causing trouble, disrupting the heavenly time, causing the palace to be destroyed and the towers to collapse, causing chaos in the four dimensions."
Wang Jingyan listened to Yang'a's story. These were not recorded in the classics, but Yang'a, as a member of the royal family, might have actually heard some rumors.
Moreover, although what she said may have been "processed", it basically matched what Zhuang Junping said. It was still the story of Li Shaojun building a platform to refine elixirs for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. It seems that this matter is extremely credible.
"What happened next?"
"Later, Li Shaojun disappeared, and the Four Phases Jade Tablet also disappeared."
"Li Shaojun must have escaped with the Four Phases Jade Tablet and ran to Pingle Mountain to hide." Wang Jingyan guessed, and she knew that this was probably the most reasonable explanation.
"In any case, this is too much of a coincidence. Yang Xiong asked to rebuild the Bailiang Terrace, and you suddenly brought the Four Phases Jade Tablet! What do you think the Queen Mother would think?"
"Then, what does she mean?"
"For hundreds of years, the four-phase tablet has been regarded as unlucky. At this time, do you think she will let this jade tablet wander among the people?"
"Ah! Then, she..." Wang Jingyan was shocked. She had already had an ominous premonition when she saw Yang A holding out a jade plaque just now, and now she felt faintly uneasy.
"She asked me to destroy the sign. I just saw the beautifully carved Suzaku sign and felt reluctant to part with it, so I kept it."
"Ah! You ruined those three jade tokens!" Wang Jingyan felt cold from head to toe!
I just discovered the "secret" of the Four Phases Jade Tablet and the Crystal Cone, but the Four Phases Jade Tablet was destroyed just like that!
What should we do? We need to discuss it with Brother Xiaofan quickly!
Wang Jingyan didn't care about going home and hurried to Maoling Gengjiazhuang.
"Sister Jingyan, Chunyu Chang didn't do anything difficult for you, right?" Geng Xiaofan had been worried about Wang Jingyan these days and was relieved to see her return safely.
"There's big trouble!" Wang Jingyan didn't bother to say hello to Liu Fei'er and directly took Geng Xiaofan's hand.
"Go to the study and speak slowly!" Geng Xiaofan glanced at Liu Fei'er, smiled at her, and led Wang Jingyan to the backyard.
After listening to Wang Jingyan's story, Geng Xiaofan smiled slightly and said, "You were deceived by Yang A. She was reluctant to destroy the brand. The day before yesterday, she also lied to me in the same way. She just wanted to know the purpose of the brand."
"Are you sure?" Wang Jingyan became excited.
"One hundred percent sure! I've seen it with my own eyes, and I even know where she hides her brand."
"Very good!"
"Sister Jingyan, don't be too happy too early. I've thought about it carefully these days. Li Shaojun built the Bailiang Terrace and built such an exquisite mechanism for the purpose of time travel, but don't forget, he didn't succeed. Otherwise, he
He will not hide these things in Pingle Mountain again. If he really traveled through time, then he must not have used these."
Geng Xiaofan began to pour cold water on Wang Jingyan.
"But you clearly saw the door to time travel." Wang Jingyan firmly believed that this set of stone tablets and altar were the time travel devices.
"Not necessarily, that may be just an illusion. If time travel was so easy, there would be no need for Li Shaojun to live in seclusion in Pingle Mountain for so long."
"No matter what, that stone tablet and that altar must be useful! No matter what, we must unlock the secret."
"Don't worry! The first thing we have to do now is to determine the location of the stone tablet and the altar, and first figure out how to use it!"
