27. Mysterious Tombs
She looked around in shock, only to find that there were not only eighteen teams of stone men and twelve pairs of stone beasts, but in the surrounding corners, there were seven four-person-high stone gates tightly closed, counting her here, there were a total of eight stone gates, but the stone gates were broken and scattered on the ground, and they would become those piles of stones! Beside each stone gate were a large army, clad in armor and armed with sabers, straddling war horses and masks covering their faces. Hua Xun felt that the situation here seemed to be a little bad, not like those caves and strange caves where treasures were buried, no matter how you looked at it, Hua Xun felt that this was a burial place......
She didn't dare to act rashly, and stood there for a long time to make sure that there was no movement, and then she was ready to go back. I can't stay here, not to mention whether it's dangerous or not, normal people will feel too bad luck when they see that coffin, and if she sees any ghosts, she won't be scared to death.
"Click-"
Hua Xun stopped, creepy. She seemed to have heard something strange just now.
"Click-"
She held her breath.
"Solution...... Untie...... ...... Explanation? ”
She didn't dare look back.
"Titicaca-"
It's as if the iron cable is moving and rubbing.
Hua Xun bit her lip and turned around slowly, but was blocked by a dark shadow......
Chu Yan waited for the envoy to go out early in the morning.
It's not so much that she woke up too early, but that she didn't sleep at all.
She thought about it, but she couldn't have imagined that things would develop like this, and the emperor couldn't have issued an order to protect Liu Ji for no reason. Even if it was a false confession, there had to be a will to thoroughly investigate the truth, but the emperor directly bypassed the truth and ordered her to be married to Liu Yuancheng, who was suspected of plotting rebellion, and convicted the innocent Yu Taishou.
Chu Yan was about to go out when she saw Hua Du standing at her door, thinking about something with her eyes down.
"Interpretation." Chu Yan cheered up and saluted her.
"Are you going back to King Ning's Mansion?"
Hua Du raised his eyes to look at her, and his eyes were unpleasant.
"This matter will not be decided until I go to see the envoy, but the return date has not been decided, and I still have to leave after all." Chu Yan smiled gently.
"Hmm." Hua Du bowed his head and said, "I have told your father that I will not go back until the matter is completed. ”
The expression on Chu Yan's face froze, and she asked, "Why do you want to stay in Huafu all the time, you said at the beginning that you would wait for the matter to be done, but what is it that has been stranded for so long?" ”
Hua Du was silent, and she looked a little displeased.
Chu Yan saw it. She sensed that her tone was out of shape, and she hurriedly apologized: "It's too much." Please don't blame it. ”
"Resignation." Huadu sighed, "You're in too much of a hurry. People who are eager for quick success often fail, I know that you have a fate, but it is not necessarily a good thing for you to be in a hurry, and it can even be said that you want to work hard to achieve your goals with such irrationality, which is definitely not good for yourself. ”
Chu Yan was silent.
"Your father ......," Hua Du paused, and turned away, "I will not break my promise." ”
"Thank you for the explanation." Chu Yan bowed and saluted.
After Hua Du left, Chu Yan hurried to see the envoys.
"The county lord must have come to answer the confusion in his heart." The envoy and Chu Yan sat down separately, and after reading the tea, the envoy spoke.
"Is Master Yi willing to answer for the county lord?" Chu Yan put down the tea and said with a straight face.
"The minister was originally sent by King Ning, what does the county lord want to know, Lin'an knows everything."
Chu Yan chuckled and said: "I have always learned that the famous man Yi Lin'an is valued by my brother Chu Bocun, and every time my brother goes on an expedition, Mr. Lin'an sits in the rear and plots for him, which shows Mr. Lin'an's ability." But I don't know, when did Mr. Lin'an actually be sent by my father? ”
"The county lord is wrong to say this." Yi Zhi said with a smile, "Lin'an is sent by King Ning and sent by the prince, aren't they all sent by people?" It's good to be able to achieve the goal, so why bother. There was something in his words, and there was something in his words.
Chu Yan was stunned. Unexpectedly, Yi Zhi was completely different from when she announced the decree last night, and she secretly suspected that this Yi Zhi was probably not an ordinary person.
"Okay, sir, please explain to me, why is His Majesty's decree so different from the results of our investigation?"
Yi Zhi smiled, stared at Chu Yan and said, "King Ning." ”
King Ning.
Chu Yan's face changed, and his voice became cold: "Sir, why are you joking like this. My father had always been fair, so how could he be biased and biased to be confused about the truth? ”
"County Lord, whether King Ning is fair or not, is in the heart of the county lord, but doesn't the county lord think that it is reasonable for King Ning to do this?" Yi Zhi said unhurriedly, "The reason is simple. Liu Yuancheng is the son of General Yangwei, representing General Yangwei, His Majesty pampers King Ning and pampers the county lord, and the son of General Yangwei is indeed talented and beautiful, and he is a first-class talent, and his status is matched with that of the county lord. If the two in-laws are combined, this will not only satisfy His Majesty, but also raise the status of Ning Wangfu. His Majesty has always trusted King Ning, the crown prince is powerful and presses Ning, His Majesty has to weigh it, and Liu Yuancheng and the county lord are married, and there is no harm in a hundred miles, isn't it just right? ”
Chu Yan knew about the joints here, but these were not enough for the Son of Heaven to directly ignore those confessions. She shook her head.
"The county lord is not busy denying it first, the reason why King Ning intercedes is more than that." Yi Zhi said, "If the minister says a disrespectful word, the Son of Heaven will definitely not allow King Ning to ascend." The East Palace has no fault, and the power is very great, once it ascends to the sky, I am afraid that I will kill King Ning. His Majesty was arranging a retreat for King Ning. King Ning naturally knows that His Royal Highness King Ning's relationship with Huafu has gradually thinned, and Huajun Marquis is old and has no ambitions, he only wants to keep himself, and he is good at himself, how can he be on the side of His Royal Highness King Ning? If the courtier's speculation is correct, then the lord should be worried that the prince has secretly formed an alliance with the crown prince. ”
Chu Yan was shocked, and the tea in his hand almost spilled. She settled down and knew that Yi Zhi's words were right, she didn't think that Hua Junhou was attached to the prince, but what she didn't expect was that this matter was actually seen through by Yi Zhi. She stared at Yi Zhi and was about to get angry, but Yi Zhi spoke again: "Don't you think it's strange to the county lord? ”
"What?"
"Why did King Ning intercede this time, but the crown prince did not obstruct it, and let King Ning and Liu Yangwei marry?"
"It's because—" Chu Yan's eyes were cold, and she said, "Because General Yangwei is actually the prince's henchman." ”
"The county lord is really smart." Yi Zhi stroked his palms and admired, "Then the prince hopes that Liu Yuancheng can marry the county lord, so as to humiliate and blow King Ning, and King Ning hopes to be able to turn big things into small things and solve the matter of Hua Junhou, first, to retain the heirs of Hua Junhou, the future lord of Huafu, to leave a kindness, and secondly, to get Liu Yuancheng's support." How much wrestling there is, all parties calculate, but in fact, it is just His Majesty, the crown prince, King Ning, and this flower prince and marquis, calculating each other's interests. Dead two people, mess up Huafu, in fact, there is nothing, compared to what you get, Huajunhou hopes that Gongzi Yan can live well and become an official himself. ”
"Why do you want to sue me about this, these things could never have been what my father asked you to give me an account." Chu Yan's face softened a lot.
"Hahahaha...... Maybe it can be regarded as compensation for the county lord's grievances last night. Yi Zhi said with a smile, "I look at this world, whether it is the prince or the king of Ning, or the crown prince, they are far inferior to the determination and wisdom of the county lord." ”
Chu Yan sneered: "Mr. is overkill. My father and brother were fortunate to have my husband's help. She stood up and saluted Yi Zhi, "No matter what the purpose of the gentleman, I am very grateful for solving my doubts today." ”
"The minister and the county lord have a fate." Yi Zhi blinked and laughed.
In a dream.
Hua An patted Hua Xun on the shoulder and said speechlessly, "Hey, cousin, what are you doing?" ”
Seeing that it was Hua An, Hua Xun was ecstatic and said, "Cousin, why are you here?!" ”
Hua An walked to the side in disgust, and said in pieces: "Sister, just find something, Hua Jieyu is really scraping the ground, and she doesn't even let go of these broken copper and iron." ”
Sure enough, I saw Hua An running in front of a pile of dusty stones, picking and picking. And he blew away the ashes, revealing the stones, which were not stones at all, but fine utensils, with copper and iron, and mutton fat and white jade, and gold and silver scattered.
"These can't be funeral goods, right?" Hua Xun followed Hua An, after all, Hua An was more at ease with her.
"Yes, anyway, if you don't take the dead man's things for nothing, you won't take them."
“……”
Hua An took a golden long sword, pulled it away and used it as a wooden stick, pulling the pile of priceless treasures. Hua Xun felt heartache when he looked at it, what if he scratched something else!
"Well, cousin, you can take it yourself, but don't touch the stone people and stone beasts around here, they will beat people." Hua An watched Hua Xungan standing, sighed, and lowered his head again to find what he wanted.
I don't have any interest in taking other people's things privately. Although she thinks these treasures are very good, she doesn't want to steal the dead man's things, not to mention that she hasn't even figured out what kind of place this is, and how and where Hua'an got in, she is also confused.
"Where the hell is this, cousin, where did you come from?"
Hua An sighed, picked up a mirror, and looked at it in his hand repeatedly: "Here, it's an old friend's place, have you seen the coffin on it?" She pointed to the coffin, which was locked in iron, "There is a beautiful beauty sleeping in it, let's just quietly take something and leave, don't disturb her." ”
"But ......"
"But what is it! Hua Xie Yu asked me to do something, this is the first time, and this is still a god-" Hua An realized that he almost missed his mouth, and hurriedly changed the subject, "Don't waste time, you can help me find it, I want a mirror!" ”
"Isn't that what you have in your hand?"
"Oops!" Hua An was so angry that he threw the mirror back and jumped to his feet, "It's not this!" Who knows how she loves collecting mirrors so much! If I were a mirror, it would be the kind of thing that you would look at at it...... Cousin? She saw Hua Xun's dull eyes, and stretched out her hand to shake it in front of her eyes, "What are you looking at?" ”
"Cousin...... Hua Xun's voice trembled, and he pointed behind her and said, "That...... You've smashed the stone man......"
