The cave is not large, it is illuminated by the firelight, and the expressions on everyone's faces are clear. Shen Huai heard Jiang Rin call him Your Excellency, and the surprise in his expression was clearly visible. But he also regained his original look in an instant, and shook his head, indicating that he didn't know, or didn't care.

Whichever means, in short, it is to show that "you don't ask me, and I don't want to say if you ask".

Jiang Rin stood up with a chuckle, raised his hand slightly towards the firelight, his fingers were slender, reflecting the firelight, and the palm prints were clearly visible, like a series of complex veins gathered in one place, and he couldn't see the direction clearly, but as long as he slightly retracted his fingers, he could grasp all these chaotic lines.

"Before leaving Beijing, I asked my subordinates to check the origin and life of Lord Liu, it is said that Lord Liu became a waiter in the Hanlin Academy at a young age, and the future is unlimited, but he is too upright, and after the Liu family had an accident after the abolition, he admonished him several times, so he was demoted and assigned to guard the mausoleum here, and he stayed for more than ten years."

The others didn't know what he meant by this, but Shen Huaitianchai's hand froze.

Jiang Rin continued: "But after arriving at Jiuzhi Mountain and meeting that Lord Liu, I felt that Lord Liu was approachable and kind, and he was very good at talking, which was inconsistent with what I knew about Lord Liu. Presumably, this fake Lord Liu didn't let Your Excellency say more, because he was afraid that Your Excellency would reveal his true identity, after all, there is still a certain difference in the manners, words and deeds of court officials and eunuchs. ”

Smack!

The branch in Shen Huai's hand fell in response, and he looked up in amazement and looked at the young man who looked at him condescendingly but with a gentle expression. "How do you know?"

Liang Chen's always smart head knotted a little, and suddenly got up and looked at Shen Huai: "It turns out that you are Lord Liu?" ”

Jiang Rin smiled: "Originally, I couldn't be sure of your identity, but your question just now made me sure that you are not the one who set up the bureau." ”

Shen Huai lowered his eyes, picked up the branch that had just fallen and threw it into the fire, then stood up and said in a deep voice: "That's right, I am Liu Yong." ”

"Huh? You ......" Liang Chen and the others' expressions suddenly became vigilant.

Jiang Rin waved his hand so that they didn't need to be nervous, and said, "Lord Liu is very wise, although he was coerced by others not to reveal his identity, he tried to arouse my suspicion in another way. ”

Shen Huai looked at him, straightened his back slightly, and the beard that he had pretended to be shaved off by the waiter before revealed his cyan stubble in the light of the fire, and he said: "That's right, I asked Huai'er to deliberately reveal some news to you, Lord Jiang is really smart, and he saw the flaws so quickly." ”

"What Huai'er said, what you taught her, adult?" Liang Chen couldn't help but be shocked, and his heart said that his beautiful male plan really didn't succeed, it turned out that people were going to say it......

"Yes."

"......" Liang Chen, who was obviously the least intelligent in front of these two people with full stomachs and eyes, asked, "Gong...... My lord, where do you see the flaws? ”

The smile in Jiang Rin's eyes became a little more obvious, and said: "Huai'er said that she went to the kitchen in the dead of night to find something to eat, and accidentally saw Aunt Lian chopping human flesh in the middle of the night, which is not in line with common sense. Not to mention Aunt Lian, a woman, there is no way to dispose of a few corpses on her own. Laboriously chopping it into minced meat and wrapping it into buns, it is even more of a plus, take 10,000 steps back, even if she can really do it and do this, there must be guards around to patrol, Huai'er, a powerless little palace maid, how can she avoid the vigilant fake guards? Therefore, Huai'er just told us the story that Master Liu had made up, and what she did was just to get our attention, so that we could take the initiative to ask her, so as to avoid the suspicion of the 'intruder'. ”

"Then why didn't the adults tell me before?"

Jiang Rin glanced at him: "I thought you could think of it." ”

Liang Chen: "......'s subordinates" are ashamed......

Jiang Rin looked at "Shen Huai" and said, "The news that Lord Liu revealed to us is far more than that. Since you asked Huai'er to pull out Aunt Lian, it means that this matter must be related to Aunt Lian. I asked my subordinates to inquire about Aunt Lian's origins, but many people didn't know, and the only news I got was that she invited herself to guard the tomb. However, Huai'er's words revealed Aunt Lian's identity. ”

"Although Huai'er was entrusted by Lord Liu to come to us to 'report', she couldn't help but reveal her fear of Aunt Lian, saying that Aunt Lian had strict rules, and felt that these little palace maids had no rules, so she often punished them. Therefore, before Aunt Lian came to the imperial tomb, she should have a relatively high status in the palace, so there would be such strict rules. ”

"And when my subordinates asked if Aunt Lian was close to Lord Liu, Huai'er only said, 'They are all people who guard the mausoleum, and they are naturally familiar with them for many years.'" After working together for more than ten years, they are only familiar with each other, which shows that the relationship between Aunt Lian and Lord Liu is not good, and the reason for this is because she was the personal maid of Queen Chunrong! And Queen Chunrong's death is inseparable from Liu Abolishment, and it is natural that she has a bad relationship with Lord Liu. ”

"Again, Huai'er said, Lord Liu has a wife and daughter, and lives near the stable at the foot of the mountain. This is strange, could it be that Lord Liu and his wife and daughter are separated all the year round, and he lives on the mountain, but his wife and daughter have to live under the mountain with the guards? And Aunt Lian, as the steward of the palace maid, why should she supervise the meals in the kitchen. Even if you like to cook, there should be a serious housekeeper in the kitchen, but no. Therefore, I am afraid that Lord Liu's wife is the lady in charge of the kitchen. She has not been seen so far, she must have been imprisoned and used to threaten Lord Liu! ”

"In general, it is the intruder who kidnapped Lord Liu's wife and daughter, forced you to fake the "haunting of the imperial mausoleum", and told the emperor about it, so that the intruder can logically achieve the purpose of opening the mausoleum of the imperial concubine. So, what is the identity of the intruder to get Aunt Lian to help kidnap Lord Liu's wife and daughter? Naturally, it was the Chen family who exposed the Liu family's rebellion and murdered Queen Chunrong after the abolition! ”

"Shen Huai" pursed his lips tightly and froze in place, although he had already guessed the identity of the 'intruder', but when someone said it clearly in front of him, he was still shocked.

The Chen family and the Liu family, the Liu family and Queen Chunrong, this mess has not only not been solved over the years, but has become more and more chaotic.

When the others heard Jiang Rin's explanation, they all showed stunned expressions, they didn't expect that a palace maid could convey so much information in a few simple sentences.

It's not the first time that Liang Chen has felt the gap between himself and his son, but this time it's especially obvious, think about it, I'm afraid I'm not a fool......

"Shen Huai" looked solemn and said, "Those intruders colluded with Lianxiang, kidnapped my wife and daughter, and then killed a few guards and took their place. Before Lord Jiang set off from the suspension bridge, they had already gone to Yuanfeng and set up an ambush, just waiting for Lord Jiang to go up and break the mechanism of the mausoleum, and then kill you. When the time comes, when the emperor asks, I will say that you had an accident on Yuanfeng and fell into a mountain stream and died, and those men you brought with you will stay in the place where Shouling endures, and they will not know the truth. ”

Jiang Rin raised his lips and smiled: "Since I know that there is a conspiracy, how can I go up, anyway, they can't open the mausoleum of the imperial concubine, and I don't plan to climb up at all." ”

Imperial tombs will be arranged with a large number of secret passages to prevent tomb robbers and malicious intruders, and the mausoleum of the imperial concubine is no exception. If you don't follow the correct steps to open it, you can only use a living person to take on the death caused by the mechanism.

Empress Chen obviously didn't dare to make such a big move under the nose of Emperor Zhaoren.

"Shen Huai" heard what Jiang Rin said, and his face turned gray. If he fails to get Jiang Rin to open the mausoleum, his wife and daughter's lives will be in danger. But what kind of face does he have to let the other party exchange his life for the life of his wife and daughter?

Jiang Rin couldn't see what he was thinking, and said, "Lord Liu, please rest assured, my subordinates who stayed in the Shouling Palace are not vegetarians. This should have saved the adult's wife and daughter. ”

"Shen Huai's" eyes lit up: "Really? ”

Jiang Rin bowed his head, and then asked, "Dare to ask Lord Liu, where are the guards in that water cave just now?" ”

"Shen Huai" heard his question and hurriedly said: "They deliberately fell into the river to disperse part of Lord Jiang's strength, but I didn't expect Lord Jiang's subordinates to be so vigilant and only follow two people, but rest assured, they won't worry about their lives." ”

Jiang Rin nodded, walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked at the mountain peak where the Shouling Palace was located in the distance, where it was quiet, as if nothing had happened.

Liang Chen followed his line of sight, also looked over there, and asked, "Can they do it?" ”

"In short, Xiong Yishan trained it, if it doesn't work, I'll hand over Xiong Yishan to you when I go back."

Liang Chen was embarrassed, how to deal with it, did he kill and eat meat? Remembering the story of human meat buns, he said: "It should be able to ......"

………………

Yuan palace outside the blue brick paving, heavy eaves nine, on the wall is the mural of the flying immortal worship the Queen Mother of the West, the characters in the painting are wide robes and large sleeves and ornaments are gorgeous, the demeanor is light and spiritual, the colors are bright and colorful.

The tomb chamber and the place close to the top of the mountain, the stone was chiseled to expand the ground, and the house and the hall were built for the soul of the tomb owner to play, and the plank road was connected with the tomb entrance, so that the palace maid guarding the tomb could "provide as usual". He also built a house beside the plank road for the palace people to live in. There are many stone letters lined up on the east and west compartments of the tomb road, and the stone letters are filled with iron boxes, and the boxes contain precious funerary goods, and it is said that Wang Xizhi's "Lanting Collection Preface" is the original handiwork and many ink treasures of famous calligraphers such as Zhong Xiang and other ancient famous calligraphers are in it.

The people in ambush above waited for three hours, and it was not early, and the clouds were in twilight, and the sun was setting, and the thick golden light gathered together in the sky.

Finally, another person couldn't wait to ask: "Boss, why haven't they come up yet, is it possible that they can't climb up?" ”

"It is said that the new leader of the Imperial City Division is strong in martial arts, so he won't even be able to come to this kind of place."

"That'...... How did it take so long? ”

"Maybe his men can't?"

At the foot of the mountain, Liang Chen sneezed twice in succession, who scolded me?
