Chapter 184: The Emperor's Tomb of Long Yuan
When the old man Miao got married, he knocked on the bamboo pole of his apprentice, not only Jia's dowry was all prepared by Lan Ya, but even the silver for the marriage was given by Zhuo Xiaoran, completely forgetting his bold words that he wanted to "expel Lan Ya from the school" a few days ago.
Of course, outsiders will not know that Miao Zhu has these two apprentices, Lan Ya attended the wedding with Jia's neighbors, and Zhuo Xiaoran didn't even show his face.
Xiao Ruo, the king of Beixiao, who has been patrolling the mountain for more than two months, finally came to the news, after several months of searching, he finally found the feng shui treasure of the dragon abyss formation of the two dragons playing with pearls, the dragon marrow in the abyss is inexhaustible, inexhaustible, if the dragon abyss of the two dragons playing with pearls is on top of the new imperial mausoleum, it will surely bless the people, peace and prosperity.
Xiao Li Longyan Dayue, soon issued a holy decree, Xiao Ruo was responsible for the supervision of the imperial mausoleum, and Wang Anshi was named the squire of the Ministry of Works, responsible for the construction of the imperial mausoleum.
Wang Anshi has changed from a businessman to an official, and has been given a team of cavalry battalion guards, led by Wang Ankang.
Xiao Li boasted of benevolence and virtue, and issued a holy decree that more than 30 villages along the Qixing Mountain, each village and each villager must produce a strong man, and the villagers who cannot produce a strong man must be exempted from Ding with heavy gold, and tattoo 50 taels of silver, which is considered a heavy gold, which is five times more expensive than the usual work of buying Ding, making up for the wages for the villagers.
Although the wages were pitiful, this was a rare mercy in other countries such as the Southern Qi and Zhou states. The villagers even have a sense of gratitude.
Although I am grateful, the conditions on the mountain are too poor, and the family is rich and has money, so naturally I will not let the men of my family suffer.
Even if Yu Sanguang didn't say it, Lan Ya would not let Yu Sanguang go up the mountain to suffer, so he naturally paid free silver;
Yu Daguang's family, Yu Erguang and Yu Xiaoguang have all been separated, and the money has built a house, so they don't want to go, and because they don't have free silver, they are so anxious that they can't do anything.
begged Yu Sanguang to find Lan Ya to make peace, Lan Ya immediately refused, in terms of affection, she would rather help the Hai family, the Yue family, and the Liu family, but with the Yu family's brothers, she couldn't favor one over the other.
Lan Ya finally decided, In addition to the Zhuang Ding silver paid in Sanguang, no one else has helped, each family has produced Zhuang Ding, the Yu family except Yu Sanguang's three brothers, Hai Dazhuang of the Hai family, Liu Yuan of the Liu family, and Yue Nan of the Yue family, have all become one of the strong men who went up the mountain, sleeping in the open on the mountain, and began to smash the mountain and dig ditches to build the imperial tomb.
In the blink of an eye, in the autumn, Liu Qingshi won the lifting in one fell swoop, ranking forty-three, because only the top ten had the opportunity to take the palace exam, so Liu Qingshi was rejected from the palace test wall.
Because the Lin family had no intertwined relationship in Los Angeles or even Fucheng, Liu Qingshi, like other students from poor families, waited for the imperial court to send him an indefinite mission.
As time went by, Liu Qingshi became more and more bored, and Lan Ya, who was a neighbor, would even hear him roaring at Lin Yuniang, and then Lin Yuniang left Liu's house with tears in her eyes and returned to her parents' house.
When Lin Yuniang came back, it happened that Lan Ya went out, and Lin Yuniang did not have heavy bridal makeup at this time, her face was a little pale and haggard, and the fetal marks on the side of her face became more and more dark red and gloomy.
Lin Yuniang was holding a delicate jewelry box in her hand, and when she saw Lan Ya, she straightened her back like a proud peacock and returned to Liu's house in high spirits.
It's just that the thin back makes Lan Ya naturally lonely.
In the evening, Liu Qingshi's house was full of smoke, and laughter was frequent, and Liu Xiucai laughed exaggeratedly, and his tone was like an official master.
On the second day, Liu Qingshi went out early and disappeared for two or three months.
In the blink of an eye, it was the harvest season, Lan Ya asked Yu Fangjun to organize people to harvest autumn vegetables, and also asked Hai Shi to help, Hai Shi walked up to Lan Ya with a worried face and said: "Lan Ya, in the past, my father went home once every ten days and went home to change clothes; It's been a month and I haven't returned, will something happen? ”
Lan Ya's right eyelid jumped and she always felt that something unsettling was about to happen.
Cleaning up the milky white gourd seedlings, he tore off a small piece of paper scrap and clamped it on his right eyelid, trying to lower the temperature of his dizzy mind, and relieved his troubled heart, thinking about various possibilities.
The worst kind of speculation jumped into my mind, coiled around my brain like a reptile, and never left for a long time.
What Lan Ya thought of was that with her coherent thinking about the ancient imperial tombs, at the moment when the tomb was built, it was also the moment when the person who built the tomb was buried with him, could it be that Xiao Li, who had always been hypocritical and attached to his name, began to ignore his name of benevolence? Let these tens of thousands of villagers give him a funeral for the Xiao family's dynasty? !
Once this idea is generated, it will not be able to survive for a long time.
At night, Lan Ya's heart became more and more uneasy, and she couldn't sleep after tossing and turning, so she simply sat up, packed her bags, and rushed to the mountain.
It is not a secret thing for tens of thousands of villagers to build the imperial tomb, and the camp where they are stationed is also very easy to find. Looking down from the mountain, the red bonfires cover countless tents, which is breathtaking.
At the time of the third watch, it was when people were sleepy and tired, and the sentries who were guarding were also asleep and drowsy.
Lan Ya went along the tent on the edge to the two big tents in the center, and was crawling, a light sound rang out, and Lan Ya hurriedly bullied up, covering the mouth and nose of the visitor.
The person who came separated him with his strong hand, his body turned sharply in the air like a spinning top, and he opened his mouth and whistled.
Lan Ya was so anxious that she snorted and said angrily: "Wang Ankang, you are a guy who has not achieved enough things and has more than enough failures." ”
After speaking, his body hurriedly ran towards the tent.
Wang Ankang was stunned, and he jumped behind Lan Ya and said, "You first hide in the camp on the left, and the one on the right is the king of Beixiao." ”
Lan Ya was able to hold his feet to enter the tent on the right, and instead galloped into the tent on the left.
In the tent on the side of King Beixiao, a small group of people rushed out, and one of them approached Wang Ankang suspiciously and said, "Commander Wang, have there been assassins entering the camp?" ”
Wang Ankang's face turned suspicious and said: "Commander Li, I was dazzled just now, and I saw the shadow of the tree as a female ghost, and I was so scared that I lost my voice, don't blame me." ”
Commander Li's eyebrows furrowed, the disdain in his heart was obviously on his face, and he smiled and said: "Brother Wang doesn't have to worry, I heard that female ghosts like to inhale yang energy, Brother Wang is so timid, yang energy is naturally not heavy." ”
After speaking, he shook his head, hummed a small song and walked back to his tent, and before entering the tent, he ordered a person behind him to lead a small team of people to patrol around the big tent of King Beixiao.
When Wang Ankang saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel anxious, the two tents were next to each other, obviously strengthening the security guard of the king of Beixiao, but in fact, it was also monitoring Wang Anshi's tent, and Commander Li clearly did not fully believe his perfunctory words.
Wang Ankang had no choice but to follow the example of Commander Li, leading a small group of people to strengthen vigilance around Wang Anshi's tent.
Inside the tent, on the table, there were more than a dozen lampshades of night pearls, and under the lampshade, Wang Anshi stood in front of the table, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and his eyes stared at a leather pattern on the table for a moment.
Hearing the sound, he didn't even raise his head and said, "Big brother, take a look at this newly sent map of the Seven Star Mountain." ”
Lan Ya simply didn't say anything, walked directly to Wang Anshi's side, and looked at the leather map intently. Looking at it, I said, "Huh".
Wang Anshi raised his head consciously, and saw that it was Lan Ya dressed in black, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "You are a fat coward, and you ran to my big tent in the middle of the night." ”
Lan Ya raised her eyebrows and said: "I dare to break into the tiger's den and snake's nest, you are at least more seen, much more handsome, and much cuter than tigers and pythons." ”
Wang Anshi couldn't help but laugh and said: "That's the past, but I just heard that you sold a noodle recipe to the Shen family, and Shen Qingying really raised her eyebrows in the entire Shen family." If you helped the Shen family, you are an enemy of the Wang family, so you are not afraid that I will destroy you to take revenge? ”
Lan Ya shrugged helplessly and said: "I sold Fang Zi to the Shen family, in the final analysis, the Wang family is to blame for this matter, who let your Wang family not have the strength to protect me and my people?" Don't have the consciousness to support me and my people as a backer? If I don't sell my son, my people will be played to death by the Shen family. ”
Wang Anshi shook his head helplessly, this little girl of the Yu family really has a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and has the mouth of saying that the dead are alive, and she is really helpless to take her. It's like selling a son to the Shen family, I heard that Shen Qingying is suspicious all day long, and lives in the guilt of burning people all day long, and this "dead man" is a scoundrel at this time and he is unreasonable to distinguish three points with himself.
It's just that the phrase "me and my people" is so enviable, and people unconsciously want to be the person she shelters.
Wang Anshi shook off his unrealistic thoughts, pointed to the map and said, "This is the trend map of the entire Seven Star Mountain, and the Feng Shui Bureau of the Hidden Dragon in the Abyss is here." ”
Wang Anshi pointed to the mountains in the heart of the embrace, and then said, "You just screamed, why?" But what do you see? ”
Lan Ya looked at Long Yuan's place again, shook his head, and gestured with his hand in a frame for a long time before he smiled and said: "I'm just strange, this map should be detailed in places, such as Fox Valley and Iron Mine are not listed, and the pattern of this imperial tomb is really ridiculous, I have never seen such a feng shui bureau, and it is said that it is a hidden dragon in the abyss." ”
Wang Anshi's face flashed, and he said in surprise: "Miss Yu, you actually know the Feng Shui Bureau?" You fairy boy really have some skills, no wonder the people in ten miles and eight villages are telling you about your fortune deeds. ”
Lan Ya's face turned bright, she blinked embarrassedly, stretched her waist like a cat lazily, and said playfully: "General, far worse than you and Zhuo Xiaoran, how smart you two are, you know the importance of having a good relationship with me." ”
Wang Anshi couldn't help but point to the atlas and said, "Miss Yu, I am very suspicious when I look at this picture of the imperial tomb, but I can't tell what is uncomfortable." ”
Lan Ya smiled evilly and pointed to the location of the imperial tomb of the hidden dragon in the abyss and said, "Prince Wang, what do you think this hidden dragon looks like in the abyss?" ”
Wang Anshi tried to blink his eyes and watched, the mountains on both sides were towering and embracing, and a mountain peak in the middle was towering, and there was a deep pool on it that was bottomless, but he didn't see anything.
Wang Anshi's eyes almost became cross-eyed, and then he nodded and said, "Isn't it like a pen stand?" ”
Lan Ya's face turned red, this good young man was really pure as a blank piece of paper, and he wanted to explain simply and rudely that this was clearly a certain part of the man's body, which was used as a tomb, exposed to the wild, accumulated over time, sooner or later, one day he would be exhausted and die, what else to talk about blessing future generations and extending the heirs?
Seeing Wang Anshi looking at himself stupidly, Lan Ya coughed lightly, and explained in a similar way: "Although the feng shui of this pearl and jade is beautiful, it is like a naked maiko, and it is a bit far-fetched to say that it is a hidden dragon in the abyss. ”
Wang Anshi's face turned suspiciously red, and the originally magnificent "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss" was instantly interpreted by Lan Ya as "carcass = body maiko", which is still a description of her civilization, respectively, the trend of "having all things in mind", and her face is getting redder and redder, and she is indescribably embarrassed.
