Chapter 56: First Acquaintance with Chen Shou
This night was destined to be an unquiet night, the Lieutenant's Mansion mobilized almost all its forces to search and arrest inside and outside the city of Chengdu, many "moths" hidden in the official office of the Shu Han Dynasty were swept away one by one, and many strongholds harboring Wei spies were eliminated one by one.
I have to say that the operation of the Lieutenant's Mansion was swift and powerful, because the Black Shark was captured in the abandoned village on the outskirts of Chengdu, and Liu Yin deliberately acted in a low-key manner and did not make the matter public, so not many people knew about the arrest of the Black Shark. In order to keep secrets, the underground intelligence network has adopted a single-line contact method, and the security has been improved, but the timeliness is not flattering, so except for a few spies with a keen sense of smell, many meticulous works have no time to react, especially those hidden in the official office, and many geniuses and the online contact of the traitors, it is even more accurate.
In the face of the lieutenant's office officer, the arrested traitors were full of surprise without exception, and most of them could only be arrested, and some of them tried to resist stubbornly, but they were also captured on the spot by the lieutenant's office officer who had been prepared for a long time. After the Huang Dye escape incident, the Lieutenant's Mansion greatly strengthened its arrest efforts.
At dawn, the dungeon of the lieutenant's mansion was already overcrowded, but the arrest operation did not stop there, and the wanted fish for individual slips through the net were still carried out in the streets and alleys. For a time, there was a lot of noise in the city of Chengdu, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.
At this time, Liu Yin did not appear at the scene of the arrest, but came to Dongguan Pavilion alone.
Dongguan Pavilion is the official office that stores archives and documents, and all the classics and historical materials are kept here, and the reason why Liu Yin came here is not for anything else, but to verify Wei Yan's affairs.
Although Wei Xuewu and Black Shark's words corroborated each other, and the identity of Xue Wu could basically be determined, Liu Yin decided to come to Dongguan Pavilion in person for the sake of prudence.
Of course, as a lieutenant right cheng, Liu Yin still did not have the qualifications to directly enter the East Pavilion to review the files, he took the official letter issued by Zhi Jinwu He Zeng and entered the Dongguan Pavilion.
The person who received Liu Yin was a scholar, and when he saw the official letter submitted by Liu Yin, he hurriedly went to inform the Guange Lingshi, after all, Liu Yin's identity was there, how could he be a small scholar who could receive it.
Liu Yin soon met the person in charge of Dongguan Pavilion - Guan Ge Ling Shi, who looked like he was about thirty years old, with a fair face, two straight and thin eyebrows, and a gentle and elegant temperament, but his eyes were very indifferent, and he had a feeling of being detached from things when encountered, and there seemed to be no fireworks on his body.
It seems that this kind of person should not be an official, more like those pure-hearted seekers in the mountains - Liu Yin secretly said in his heart, but he still bowed his hand very politely: "Liu Yin, the right lieutenant of the lower lieutenant, because a case involves some old things in the past, I want to check the archives in your pavilion, hoping to get the assistance of Ling Shi, I don't know what to call Ling Shi?" ”
"Under Chen Shou, I don't know what aspect of the file does Lord Youcheng want to check?"
Chen Shou? Liu Yin couldn't help but look at him a few more times, it turned out that he was Chen Shou, the author of the Three Kingdoms! It's just thunderous. The Three Kingdoms Zhineng and the Historical Records, the Han Book, and the Later Han Book are known as the four major historical books in Chinese history, which is inseparable from Chen Shou's talent. The history of Chen Shou word Chengzuo, Yizhou Brazil Anhan people, when he was young, smart, diligent and studious, once worshiped the same county famous man Zhou as a teacher, once served as the general of the Wei Bo, scattered cavalry Huangmen Lang, Dongguan Secretary Lang, Guan Pavilion Ling Shi and other positions.
However, Chen Shou's career was not very smooth, his father once joined the army as Ma Tan, Ma Tan was sentenced for losing the street pavilion, and Chen's father was also implicated, was sentenced to punishment, and was abolished as a commoner. In this era of paying attention to the origin of the gate valve, although Chen Shou is full of talent, he has never been reused.
Chen Shou is not only talented, but also very proud, when he served as a loose rider Huangmen squire, he inevitably had to deal with the people in the inner palace, when Huang Hao was in power, everyone was inclined to be inflammatory, but Chen Shou refused to be attached, and was hated by Huang Hao, and was demoted to Dongguan Pavilion to do the history of the pavilion.
The responsibility of the history of the pavilion is to manage a pile of dusty historical archives every day, and there is nothing to do in a leisurely place, and occasionally there will be people like Liu Yin to consult the classics, but most of the time, the door of the Dongguan Pavilion is full of birds, and there is nothing to do.
"I want to check the information on the rebellion of Zhenbei General Wei Yan in the twelfth year of Jianxing." Liu Yin said.
Chen Shou bowed his head slightly and said, "My lord, please come with me." Chen Shou always had a calm appearance, and he didn't even ask why Liu Yin was interested in Wei Yan's information. You must know that Wei Yan was executed for the crime of treason, and he was beheaded all over the house, like Wei Yan's file is basically a relatively sensitive information, and ordinary people dare not touch it easily, for fear that they will be burned.
Dongguan Pavilion is very large, there are at least dozens of buildings, if it is full of classics and texts, from beginning to end, I don't know how many years it will take to see it, if no one comes to guide the way, looking for what Liu Yin wants to see in these vast materials, I am afraid that it may not be possible to find it in a year.
The buildings of Dongguan Pavilion are different, with several thick wooden piles hanging below the main body of the house, much like the bamboo buildings built by Nanban in the jungle, and each building has a sloping wooden staircase on one side.
Chen Shou stopped under a stilted house and explained: "There is a lot of humidity in Shu, and these houses are built in the air to prevent moisture from eroding silk and paper classics. Your Excellency, please. ”
Liu Yin sighed lightly, thinking that he cared more about the things in the building than these strange buildings.
Ah Jian has been following Liu Yin like a shadow, Liu Yin went into the house to check the information, and he stood guard at the door.
Walking into the house, Liu Yin couldn't help but gasp, the room was full of bookshelves, high next to the roof, long arrangement, almost no end, the top of the bookshelf, is densely piled with all kinds of classics, the most of which is a variety of bamboo slips, placed on the bookshelf one by one, paper and silk documents are rare, mixed in the sea of bamboo slips, extremely rare.
Although the Han Dynasty has invented paper, but the quality of the paper is not flattering, the thickness is different, not very smooth, in addition to the convenience of carrying, it does not seem to be much better than the bulky bamboo slips, so the paper is widely used in the people, but the official document records, is without exception the use of bamboo slips. Of course, the emperor's edict was an exception, and expensive silk silk was always used.
If he really wanted to find information about Wei Yan from this vast file, Liu Yin had a headache when he thought about it. Fortunately, Chen Shou seemed to be familiar with the road, and quickly took down the information that Liu Yin asked for from the bookshelf.
