Chapter 66: Surprised
Early the next morning, the Master personally sent the selected day to the palace to the emperor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
When the emperor saw it, he found that the time was exactly one o'clock in the afternoon, and he was very satisfied, and immediately rewarded the mage, and asked the mage to go to the cemetery immediately to recite the sutra, and sent a large number of soldiers to guard the mausoleum.
As soon as the hour came, the emperor led the members of the cabinet, the old heroes, the six Shangshu and some members of the strategist group to the cemetery.
At this time, the sun was at noon, and the ground was scorched by the scorching sun, so there were few pedestrians on the streets.
The emperor and his party quickly crossed the street and headed straight in the direction of the cemetery of the first emperor.
The emperor seated in Luan was dressed in a beige linen robe and a square scarf of the same color and quality, but there was no other decoration. But even such a simple and unpretentious outfit still can't hide the oppressive kingly aura in his demeanor and demeanor.
He was in a hurry, so he didn't want to enjoy the scenery around him along the way, just hoping to reach his destination early.
In order to hide his eagerness and apprehension, he constantly recited the Paramita Heart Sutra and the Mantra of Guru Padmasambhava.
Finally arrived at the cemetery, and the emperor immediately ordered someone to dig it.
Under the joint efforts of several people, the tomb was soon dug up, and the coffin of the first emperor was immediately presented in front of everyone's eyes.
Today, Li Pei hurriedly knelt respectfully towards it, and the others knelt down closely.
The two men in charge of opening the coffin took a few steps forward and began to open the coffin after saluting the coffin.
Due to the many interfaces between the lid and the coffin, and the structure is complicated, the progress is very slow.
The first emperor and his courtiers watched intently.
Sima Yu and Shangguan Che knelt side by side.
However, the two did not communicate during the whole process, not even eye contact.
But Sima Yu is also used to this.
In Sima Yu's impression, Shangguan Che would only communicate with him on official business, and never took the initiative to communicate in private. To be precise, Shangguan Che doesn't seem to be very close to anyone.
However, Shangguan Che has real talent and learning, so he is deeply appreciated by the previous emperor and the present, so no matter what others think of him, he can always sit firmly in the position of a cabinet scholar.
However, this man, who loved himself too much in the eyes of everyone, had recently become the teacher of the children of the first assistant of the cabinet, which inevitably made people think that his move was flattering, so it provoked a group of good people to talk about it in private.
These rumors also spread to Shangguan Che, but he didn't care and still went his own way.
At this moment, looking at Shangguan Che, who was as calm as water and had an elegant posture next to him, a thought of wanting to play a prank suddenly rose in Sima Yu's heart, so Sima Yu said in a voice that only Shangguan Che could hear: "I heard that Lord Shangguan has recently become a teacher, which really surprised the old man!"
Shangguan Che glanced at him and replied calmly: "The junior just thinks that he has too much free time, so he just wants to find something interesting and profitable to do, isn't it very reasonable? ”
Sima Yu was so choked by his words that he didn't know how to answer for a while, and then said sourly: "The old man originally thought that a person as noble as Lord Shangguan would not bend his waist for a few small money, but now it seems that the old man has lost his eyes." ”
Shangguan Che smiled and said: "The younger generation has not yet transcended to the point where he does not love money, but a gentleman loves money in a good way, so this kind of fair and honest money is naturally willing to earn it." ”
Sima Yu smiled coldly and said, "Then Lord Shangguan probably doesn't have much time to prepare for the position of first assistant, right? With the ability of adults, there are still opportunities, don't you work hard to fight for it?"
As he spoke, his gaze casually swept over Shangguan Che's face.
Shangguan Che smiled faintly and said, "Among the people vying for this position, there are many people who are much more powerful than me, such as Lord Sima, how dare I have extravagant hopes?"
Sima Yu shook his head and said, "The future is terrifying, Lord Shangguan doesn't have to be arrogant......"
Before he could finish speaking, the lid of the coffin was opened, and Sima Yu immediately shut up.
Some ministers hurriedly closed their eyes out of fear.
But what was surprising was that the coffin did not emit a rancid smell, but a fragrance similar to the smell of orange peel.
At the same time, exclamations were heard from the crowd.
What is going on? The ministers who closed their eyes couldn't help but be curious, and hurriedly opened their eyes to see.
Suddenly, they were all stunned - the body of the Emperor lying in the coffin was not rotting, but as ruddy and natural as when he was alive. At this time, he had one eye open and the other closed, and although his eyes didn't move anymore, he still gave people the feeling of staring at people.
For a moment, the ministers could not believe the facts before them.
It stands to reason that without embalming, even if the burial position is excellent, it is impossible for the body to remain undecomposed for two and a half months.
Seeing this situation, Sima Yu only felt that his heart was pressed by a thousand catties of boulders, and he couldn't breathe for a long time.
He was the only one who understood that this was due to the medicinal power of the 'Ten Extremes Killing Scatter'. Before, he hadn't expected the Ten Extremes to Kill Scatter to have this effect, so it was obvious that this corpse, which had not decomposed, would be more conducive to their examination......
The more Sima Yu thought about it, the more panicked he became, and his face and body continued to sweat.
His performance was seen by Shangguan Che, and Shangguan Che frowned slightly.
But Shangguan Che didn't say anything, just secretly observed.
What should I do now? It is definitely not possible to stop it clearly, Sima Yu's mind was spinning rapidly.
The emperor, who was amazed at what he saw, immediately ordered the coffin to be lifted from the tomb and placed in an open space next to the cemetery, and ordered a temporary grass hut to be built above the coffin to shield the fiery sun.
After that, the emperor asked him to begin examining the body.
A total of five people who were invited to come this time, all of whom are well-known in Beijing and the whole country, are now working together to take samples from various parts of the corpse and excrement for examination.
After they had finished extracting the samples, the emperor immediately sent someone to escort them back to the palace, and then left a hundred brocade guards around the coffin.
It seems that the emperor does not plan to bury the first emperor back immediately.
Although Sima Yu was apprehensive in his heart, he couldn't think of a reason to oppose it for a while, so he had to watch the emperor arrange all this.
Not long after, Sima Yu still knelt down quite unwillingly and suggested: "I hope Your Majesty urges you to hurry up the inspection, after all, it may not be appropriate to expose the body of the former emperor for too long." ”
Jinshang said: "I know that I will let my father enter the earth again as soon as possible." Sima Aiqing, hurry up. ”
