I am a cat in the palace

Under the entire city is a secret treasury of hidden treasures. Following the three city lords into the secret treasury, even Mr. Miaoxian, who is used to looking at the treasury and the emperor's inner treasury, felt a little dizzy.

"How much is your Highness going to take?" Bi Shaoying pointed to the full silver box and asked Rourou.

"How many are there?"

"There are currently 600 million taels of silver and 50 taels of gold in the treasury, excluding other treasures." While talking, Shang Xian took out a small box, which was full of account books.

"This king does not have a lot of manpower this time, so I will take 50 taels of cash first. Seeing that winter is coming, the Yanwei Army needs a lot of winter clothes and medicinal materials, and also needs to increase the military salary to replenish the source of troops. After that, I will send someone to take another 50 taels." two."

"His Royal Highness decides everything to be used, but His Royal Highness does not need to send someone to pick it up because it is hidden here. We can send people to escort Yinliang to the Yanwei Army camp in batches."

Seeing what Bi Shaoying said, Rourou felt that he was more thoughtful, so he said that he was sorry, and handed over to them the full responsibility for the silver out of the mountain.

"Why are there so many books here?" Walking in the treasury, Rourou was attracted by the shelves full of books in a certain warehouse.

"Yes, these are some rare books left by the previous dynasty, rare books and some orphan books collected in the palace. We have been arranging people to restore and copy them, but new ones will be sent every year. It is also our responsibility to sort out these precious ancient books. One of the most important tasks." Bi Shaoying looked at the shelves of books in front of him with great care, and his eyes were shining with a blazing light that was much hotter than when he looked at the room full of silver boxes just now.

Rourou also looked obsessively at the shelves full of books in front of him. He is also a good book lover, "I wonder if the three city lords can give up their love and let Xin bring some manuscripts back to read?"

He knew that books were easily damaged during the war, so he was very considerate and didn't ask to bring the original, but even so, Bi Shaoying seemed a little reluctant. This is a common problem of scholars, even if they are transcribed and sorted out. It also took a lot of manpower and effort. If you want to borrow it, let alone take it to the battle, even if you lend it to a friend, you have to worry about whether it will be dirty or broken.

But just like treasures, books are worthless if no one reads them, so the pain in the flesh of the graduate student only flashed for a moment, and then he began to recommend books for the meat.

Bi Shaoying's guidance from Longyuan Pavilion University scholar is really a rare opportunity, so whenever Bi Shaoying recommends the bibliography, Rourou immediately orders someone to take it out of the box.I know that he is not putting on a show in front of Bi Shaoying and the others, and he will definitely read each book thoroughly when he returns home.

I was impatient to listen to their storytelling one by one, so I wandered around by myself, but saw a very delicate Duobaoge in the innermost position of the library named Haiyun Pavilion. The glazed box contains a few bamboo slips and scrolls, only in the middle is a camphorwood box with copper skin and corners. The copper skin has already turned green, and the paint surface of the box is also a little peeled off. It should look like an antique from a very old age.

I don't know why, looking at this box, I feel a little familiar. At the same time, the uneasiness that was faintly floating in my heart before surged even more violently, so violently that my heart beat when I saw this box. , actually missed a beat.

What's in it?

Rourou probably turned his head and disappeared, so he soon followed after him.

"What are you looking at?" Rourou followed and noticed Duobaoge in the innermost part.

"Those are the secret collections of the former palace. Many books have been through thousands of years, so they are extremely precious." Bi Shaoying saw us standing in front of the Duobaoge, and took the initiative to explain.

"What books are in this box?" I asked, pointing to the box in the middle.

Bi Shaoying looked at the box but was startled, then smiled wryly: "I really don't know."

Rourou and I looked at him in puzzlement.

"This box can't be opened." But the oily and fat Prince Chunfeng, who had been standing by the side, took a step forward, took the box in his hand, and handed it to Rourou.

"Can't open it?" Rourou looked through the box, but didn't seem to see anything.

I leaned over and wanted to pick it up to take a look, but unexpectedly, as soon as I stretched out my hand, before I touched the box, a golden light came out from the box, and then I felt as if I was hit hard by a two-thousand-jin hammer. After hitting it once, it flew out. The flight was more than three feet away, and it didn't roll down until it hit the stone wall behind.

That's right, it rolled down, because at the same time as I fell out, I just felt that the blood in my whole body was frozen, and the spiritual power that I had managed to mobilize a little bit retracted back to the dantian again.

So, under the watchful eyes of everyone, I rolled back to being a cat again.

"Daxian, are you alright?" Rourou directly threw the box in his hand, and flew to hug me.

I was completely stunned, while others were stunned.

"Is he... a cat demon?"

"You are the cat demon, and your whole family is cat demon!" Before I fully woke up, I heard someone exclaim, and I went back in a daze.

It was only later that it was discovered that the one who exclaimed was Chunfeng County King... Uh, Rourou seems to be a relative of his family too.

While pulling me out from the pile of clothes, Rourou apologized to King Chunfeng for me, and at the same time quickly explained my identity to everyone.

After that, he didn't care whether those people could accept it or not, he just hugged me and examined me carefully. I just felt that the bones in my whole body were about to be smashed. I really couldn't tell where the pain was, so I could only shake my head to express slowly.

At this moment, Bi Shaoying had already rushed over and picked up the box that was thrown far away by Rourou.I raised my head in the crook of fleshy arms, and saw him looking at me with a complicated expression on his face. After thinking about it, I felt a little embarrassed. I really didn't know what to say, so I raised my paw and waved at him, "Don't worry, I only eat fish, not people."

Bi Shaoying: ...

"Have a good rest." Rourou found that I still wanted to speak, so he rubbed the top of my head, and then stuffed me into his clothes skillfully, making everyone dumbfounded again.

After stuffing Zhen, Rourou looked warily at the box in Bi Shaoying's hand, "Is this box also a relic from the previous dynasty?"

"According to the records in the treasure book, this box belongs to the first batch of treasures transported by Taizu after he entered the imperial capital. Presumably it should be an old item from the previous dynasty, and it may be something in the inner vault of the palace." Bi Shaoying looked at the box and the box while talking. I walked back and forth on my body.

"This box may contain something that suppresses demons." The oily fat Prince Chunfeng spoke again.

I immediately "meowed", enduring the pain and poking my head out to yell at him again, but before I could speak, Rourou retorted displeasedly: "The Great Immortal is not a demon!"

The oily fat man was obviously a little unconvinced, but he was pulled by Bi Shaoying, and he swallowed back the rest of the words.

"Ying Er, take this box outside and burn it." Rourou stared at the box, very annoyed.

When Bi Shaoying heard this, she became anxious, and she withdrew her hands and hid behind her back. Ying Er went to ask him for it, but he refused to give it.

"Bachelor Bi, this box is also in the Black Dragon Treasure." Rourou directly pulled out the Black Dragon Key on his neck, and at the same time exposed the Black Dragon Key on my neck, "The Black Dragon Key on the Great Immortal's neck is still Father tied it up with his own hands."

Hearing this, Bi Shaoying, You Fatty, and even Zhu Chengxun, who had been standing by the side like an invisible person who neither spoke nor expressed any expression, showed extremely strange and surprised expressions.

"This Black Dragon Key has only been handed down to emperors and empresses throughout the ages..." You Fatty clapped his forehead and muttered to himself.

Bachelor Bi stared at me again: "The mind of the late emperor is really unpredictable."

Ying Er finally took the box from the unwilling Master Bi University, but I always felt that it was extremely inappropriate to burn the box like this, so I hurriedly stopped it, "Don't burn it, don't burn it, keep it first. I always feel that this thing is useful to me."

"That thing hurt you just now."

"It's just a fall, it's all right." I grinned in pain and adjusted my posture in the fleshy arms, "The silver box is too heavy and can crush people to death. I don't know what is in this box. It’s not too late to burn it after you figure it out.”

After hearing what I said, Rourou probably felt that what I said made sense, so he finally let go and asked Ying Er to take the box back to Shengyuguan, but he ordered it to stay away from me and not to approach me Within three feet.

In fact, judging from the previous situation, as long as I didn't try to touch it myself, even if I stood by it, it didn't matter.

Afterwards, I won’t repeat the matter of taking the silver car and preparing for the return trip. When everything was ready and was about to leave the city, Rourou stood by the city gate and looked at the three veteran officials who had locked up the mountain for 20 years for this treasure house. Huan said: "In recent years, Yu State has been oppressed by heavy troops, the country has three pillars, wars are still frequent, and many people have been displaced. Kill all the traitorous concubines."

"The three are all important ministers of the Great Xia. It's a pity to live in this poor mountain and evil water just because of these dead creatures. I wonder if the three are willing to come out to help Xin?"

"I have lived in the mountains and rivers for a long time, and I have long been accustomed to this leisurely life. Besides, even if the treasure house is exhausted for a while, in the future..." Bi Shaoying smiled lightly and was about to refuse.

But Rourou raised his hand and interrupted him, "In the future, Great Xia will never set up such a treasury again. Instead of saving gold and silver to prevent the world from overthrowing, it is better to use these wealth for the people. The people's will is the dynasty. The root of prosperity."

Hearing what Rourou said, the three city lords seemed to be taken aback, but then Bi Shaoying still just smiled and bowed to Rourou, and at the same time glanced at Zhen in his arms: "Your Highness is full of kindness, I wait for you!" Admired. Only the three of us are old and decayed, and it is too embarrassing to use them. It is already hard work to guard the Black Dragon Treasure House for the Taihuang and the former emperor. What Your Highness said is that there is more than enough heart but not enough strength."

I raised my eyebrows, I spoke as I spoke, and why did I take a special look at me?old fox!

Rourou smiled slightly, "Bachelor Bi is too humble. This king knows that Uncle Xian and the two adults have worked hard these years. If you really don't want to enter the court again, you can't force it. It's just that in the past few days between Wangcheng Compared with the hardships of the people outside the mountains, the peace and happiness of the people in Wangcheng is like a paradise. Xin only hopes that the people in this world can be as prosperous and healthy as the people in Wangcheng, and live and work in peace and contentment."

Even with the flattery, the three elders remained motionless and sent Rourou out without any promises.

The way back is no longer the original path. It can save about half of the time to go out of the mountain directly from the secret path of the treasure house, and after the mechanism is opened, it can be easily connected to the official road to Suining County.

This is probably the main channel through which Wangcheng can get supplies on a regular basis.

It's just that this mechanism can only be opened from the inside in one direction, so this road cannot be used to enter Wangcheng.

After leaving Wangcheng, in order to reduce the number of branches and distribute supplies for the Yanwei army as soon as possible, Rourou and Wangcheng dispatched hundreds of silver guards to the border city at night. Escorted and sent to the nearest Lingbei Palace, the steward of the Palace arranged to buy some winter clothes and medicinal materials.

After hearing that Rourou actually brought back 50 taels of silver at one time, another 50 taels of silver will be sent later, as well as the huge amount of wealth in the Black Dragon Treasury and the three city lords of Wangcheng are actually the three next to the Taihuang. At the time of important minister, the jaws of Ling Wuzheng and Wei Yin almost dropped from shock.

It's rare to see these two people lose their composure, and I really feel very refreshed in my heart. Although I and Rourou had secretly dropped their jaws at the time, seeing them now was as shocked as me and Rourou. How much did I feel? It's finally balanced.

The military supplies of the Yanwei Army have been resolved, and finally the heaviest cloud that has been hanging over everyone's minds since the beginning of the summer has been settled. The military salaries are quickly distributed, and the morale of the entire army is suddenly high. In Baili, not only regained a pass that was temporarily lost before, but also captured three small cities in Yu State.Occupy an excellent strategic vital point before winter begins.

After everyone was able to breathe a sigh of relief, Rourou and Zhen discovered a terrible thing in shock——

No matter what method I use, I can't change into a human form.

Since "touching" that box, the spiritual power in my body seems to have returned to the state before the first time I sucked flesh and blood, and even worse, it is almost back to the secret power that Rourou was put on the immortal platform when he was six years old Before activating the spiritual power, all the spiritual power was silent without a trace. Apart from being able to speak, I basically returned to the state where I could only be a meow emperor in the past hundreds of years.

I was so frustrated that I didn't even want to leave the door.

And Rourou was studying the box almost without eating, but the box seemed to be a complete piece of wood. Although he could hear the sound of something colliding inside, he couldn't find a way to open the box.

Rourou picked up the sword a few times and wanted to chop it, but squeezed his fist and inserted the sword back. He was afraid that if some mechanism was opened, it would destroy the contents inside. To untie the bell, you need to tie the bell box. What is in the box, if you want to figure out why I am like this, it is probably the only clue.
