Chapter 8 Exploring the Palace at Night
Late at night, Tomoko came back with two "Forty-Two Chapters of Sutra".↖
"Brother Zuo, I found it."
Seeing these two scriptures, Zuo Xiaoyou finally smiled: "Zhiko, you're doing a good job."
Zhizi smiled and asked, "Brother Zuo, what should we do next? When will we kill Oboi?"
"Look at the situation." Zuo Xiaoyou said: "According to the plot, Obai will be stabbed into the acupoint by the pretended queen mother in the next few days."
Speaking of this, Zuo Xiaoyou hesitated for a moment and said, "If you use the most convenient method, of course it is best to take advantage of Oboi's capture, but I feel a pity to do this."
"What a pity?" Tomoko didn't understand.
"Yes." Zuo Xiaoyou said quietly: "The opportunity to fight with the master is so rare."
He paused: "What's more, I have you to help, so there is no reason to be afraid of Oboi."
Zhizi nodded repeatedly: "Brother Zuo is right. Heroes should face all challenges head-on. There is no need to be afraid of Oujisang, a hero like Brother Zuo."
"Ojisang?" Zuo Xiaoyou burst out laughing, rubbed Tomoko's hair, and said, "I don't want to be a hero. Heroes usually don't die well. I still want to live forever!"
Zhizi's eyes flashed, and he suddenly hugged Zuo Xiaoyou's arm and said, "Brother Zuo, if I sacrifice myself, I can make you immortal, I will sacrifice myself without hesitation."
"Don't say stupid things." After patting Tomoko's smooth forehead, Zuo Xiaoyou smiled and scolded: "Of course I want to live forever, but if it's what you get through sacrifice, I would rather die."
Tomoko covered her forehead with a smile on her eyes: "But if Brother Zuo dies, I will disappear. Instead of both of them, it's better to sacrifice one of me."
"Zhiko, what's wrong with you today?" Zuo Xiaoyou heard something was wrong: "Why do you always say death?" He hugged Zhiko in his arms and stroked her back: "Don't worry! We will not die, we will continue to live."
Hiding in Zuo Xiaoyou's warm embrace, Tomoko nodded lightly and closed her eyes.
...
The next day, Zuo Xiaoyou continued to ask Chiko to investigate Oboi's whereabouts, but Chiko quickly brought back a message: "Brother Zuo, Aoboi went to a place where there are many officers and soldiers, and he seemed to be rebelling."
"Rebellion!" Zuo Xiaoyou was shocked, "How is that possible!"
Zuo Xiaoyou was really scared. After experiencing several movie worlds, this is the first time that there has been a major change in the subsequent plot. Well, why did Obai rebel?
Zuo Xiaoyou has read a lot of books, but he is not a genius. He does not have the reasoning ability like Conan, so he can only make a rough guess from some information... It is not necessarily correct.
But this time, Zuo Xiaoyou guessed the reason.
"Can it be that Chiko cut him down and gave Oboi some ideas?"
Zhizi is invisible in front of people, and Oboi cannot see it, so Zhizi uses a machete to cut him, and he will definitely have the idea of encountering ghosts and gods. After all, Oboi has done all his bad things. In this superstitious feudal society, it is not surprising that he has the idea of being "harmed by ghosts". So according to the traditional Chinese ideas, how can he not be disturbed by ghosts and gods?
The first way is to find monks and Taoists to eliminate demons, but Obai didn't seem to do this, but instead mobilized the army to rebel.
What is the purpose of rebellion? Of course, it is to be the emperor yourself. So what is the relationship between being an emperor and meeting ghosts?
Zuo Xiaoyou's advantages of reading a lot of books finally emerged at this time: "The human emperor is not shocked by ghosts and gods..."
Zuo Xiaoyou understood everything.
It turned out that Oboi was afraid that he would kill his head again, so he would have the idea of rebelling and ascending the throne. The ancients all had this idea: the emperor in the world is the son of heaven, referred to as the emperor for short. The emperor serves as the emperor to control the world. Who dares to do anything wrong with demons and ghosts?
So Oboi's idea was very obvious. As long as he drove the little emperor out of power and he was the emperor himself, then the neck would not have happened if he was chopped off for no reason.
"So that's it." Thinking about the joints clearly, Zuo Xiaoyou thought: Should we stop Oboi's actions?
After thinking for three seconds, Zuo Xiaoyou made a decision: not to stop it.
Anyway, it’s all dogs that bite the dogs, so they can bite them off by themselves. As long as it doesn’t affect his completion of the task, it’s fine.
"Zhizi, go and stare at Oboi. Please notify me any time if you have anything." Zuo Xiaoyou said.
Zhizi nodded and asked: "Brother Zuo, if Obai really rebels, I will definitely see blood. If I kill people randomly at that time...will you hate it?"
"They are not good things. You can kill them as much as you want. It doesn't matter how much you kill." Zuo Xiaoyou said.
Zhizi's eyes lit up, and he took a machete on his back and happily followed Oboi.
Zuo Xiaoyou immediately went to ask A Ke to leave the city.
"Why?" Seeing Zuo Xiaoyou ask her to leave the city, A Ke was very unhappy and said pitifully: "Senior Brother, did I do something wrong and make you angry? Sorry, I didn't mean it, can you forgive me?"
"..." Zuo Xiaoyou smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that you made me angry, but that I got the secret news that Oboi was about to rebel. It will be very uneasy in the imperial city in the next few days. It's too dangerous for you to stay here."
"Aobai is going to rebel?" A Ke was startled and said hurriedly: "Then brother, you can go together too! Then the war will be in chaos, if you have a few things..."
"Don't talk nonsense." Zuo Xiaoyou waved his hand and said, "Obai just wanted to force the little emperor to abdicate. Even if he rebelled, he would just make a fuss in the palace, which would be unlikely to affect this place."
"Since it doesn't affect it, I won't leave." A Ke wanted to put down his luggage.
"No!" Zuo Xiaoyou held her hand. The seventeen-year-old girl's hands were both smooth and warm, making her heart itchy.
"Although there may be no danger here, I am afraid of ten thousand, just in case. I must not let you take the risk."
Zuo Xiaoyou hung the package on her shoulder and said, "A Ke, when you practice kung fu well, I won't stop you if you want to go there with me. But now, you immediately leave the city and go home and wait for me. After the matter is settled, I will go back to find you."
Seeing that Zuo Xiaoyou had made up his mind, A Ke couldn't hide her loss, but after years of experience and subtle influence from Zuo Xiaoyou, she was no longer the ignorant girl in the original movie.
Holding up the long sword, A Ke looked at Zuo Xiaoyou with deep eyes and whispered: "Senior Brother, then I'll leave."
"Go quickly!" Zuo Xiaoyou's heart was pounding, but he couldn't have a long love affair at this time. He could only endure the impulse in his heart and waved his hand: "Take good care of yourself these days, don't run around."
"Um."
A Ke turned around and left. After she left, Zuo Xiaoyou did not stay in the inn and wait for news, but went out to scout the site.
This capital has been here many times. Zuo Xiaoyou is familiar with the environment here, but he doesn't know much about the interior of the palace. He wants to go to the palace to explore the information before Oboi rebelled, especially the saint of the Dragon Sect Long'er who pretended to be the queen.
To be honest, Zuo Xiaoyou thinks that Queen Zhang Min has a good appearance, and her acting skills have improved a lot in this movie, and she has played this role alive, but later she became Brigitte Lin.
It’s not that Brigitte Lin’s acting is not good, but that Brigitte Lin is too... old.
When she was acting in this movie, Brigitte Lin was already 38 years old. As soon as she appeared, her mature old face had to pretend to be a young girl in her 20s. It was simply...
In fact, Zuo Xiaoyou thought it would be better for Brigitte Lin and Zhang Min to exchange roles. Brigitte Lin was just right to play the queen, and Zhang Min was only twenty-four years old when she was in this movie, so it was more suitable to play the role of the Saint Longer, but the director and producer were blind.
But just be blind! The movie has been made anyway, and the box office is pretty good.
...
There are three steps and one whistle within the palace, and one post is strictly guarded, but it is useless for a master like Zuo Xiaoyou who has unique skills.
With the protection of the night, Zuo Xiaoyou easily got into the palace, but he didn't know the distribution in the palace.
"I really should ask Tomoko in advance." Zuo Xiaoyou scratched his head a little.
It was his whim to explore the imperial city at night, and he did not prepare in advance. But since he was not clear about it, he simply turned around. But after a long time, Zuo Xiaoyou directly moved to Hougong.
At this time, the palace was dark and there was nothing to see. However, there was a palace brightly lit. Zuo Xiaoyou approached and saw many palace maids and eunuchs guarding the door, and there were lewd sounds coming from it.
Zuo Xiaoyou understood as soon as he heard this, that the little emperor Kangxi must be favoring the palace maid.
Zuo Xiaoyou was not envious. As we all know, the queen of the Qing Dynasty, the palace concubines were the ugliest women in the world. After searching through the old photos of the palace left by the Qing Dynasty, there was no one who looked good. Even if there were a few pretty ones, they could not be beautiful.
Zuo Xiaoyou should praise the Emperors of the Qing Dynasty. What kind of saints do they have to be so that they can tolerate their own "beauties" in the palace are all of this kind of virtue?
In this regard, from ancient times to the present, there has been no one more "saint" than the Qing emperors. That is really "saint", and even saints are not as saints as theirs.
Thinking of Kangxi favoring such a palace maid in the house, Zuo Xiaoyou expressed admiration from the bottom of his heart and left in a drift.
After this, Gong’s taste is too strong, so he needs to change the place to get some breath.
After wandering around like a headless fly for a long time, Zuo Xiaoyou saw another palace, which was also so dark that it was hard to see clearly.
Zuo Xiaoyou landed lightly in the front yard of the palace. He was about to investigate, but suddenly he heard a voice: "Who is it?"
