Chapter 64: Ji Chaoge is poisoned

The tomb keeper never dreamed that the little prince would come in person, and hurriedly ran out to greet him, but was shocked by the woman who accompanied him. Who is this woman, born with such a good appearance, not inferior to the little prince.

"Lord Wang, why are you here?" The grave keeper ran out with a crawl, and the ground was so slippery that his knees slammed on the bluestone ground with a crisp sound.

Ji Chaoge ignored the tomb keeper's request, raised his feet and stepped directly up the steps, standing at the entrance of the mausoleum and saying to the tomb keeper: "What is abnormal recently?" ”

"Anomaly?" The tomb keeper was taken aback, and hurriedly lowered his head and said in fear, "Back to the prince, there has never been anything abnormal, and it is still the same as before." ”

Zhao Xinyue followed and stepped over the steps, and looked around curiously, it was the mausoleum of the old prince of Nanyang, except for the top of Wanqing Mountain, how could it be no different from the tombs of ordinary people?

"Is it really the same as before? Not at all abnormal? For example, what strange noise, or what strange person has gone up the mountain? Zhao Xinyue frowned and asked, if there really is nothing abnormal, then how did the old prince's mausoleum be stolen?

The grave keeper was still curious about the identity of this woman, but when he saw her suddenly ask, he immediately sank his face but did not answer.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Xinyue looked at Ji Chaoge strangely, and asked with her eyes what was going on?

Ji Chaoge met her eyes, was stunned for a moment, and then turned cold, "The princess asked you something, why didn't you answer?" ”

Princess?! This woman is a princess? The little prince married a wife? The tomb keeper looked up at Zhao Xinyue in shock, and immediately lowered his head and kowtowed to Zhao Xinyue three times. "Ji Zhong knocked to see the princess."

Surname Ji? In the palace, only Ji Chaoge and Ji Qingqing are surnamed Ji, and the housekeeper who gave birth to a child is also a side surname, but I didn't expect that the tomb keeper was surnamed Ji. "Your surname is Ji?"

"Back to the princess, yes." Ji Zhong smiled bitterly, and secretly glanced at Ji Chaoge with eyes full of relief and distress.

Zhao Xinyue didn't come to Nanyang for a long time, and she didn't know much about the affairs of the Ji family. Seeing this person looking at Ji Chaoge with such complicated eyes, he vaguely felt that the relationship between him and Ji Chaoge was not just that of master and servant.

"Isn't there only one family surnamed Ji in Nanyang?" Zhao Xinyue turned around and quietly asked Ji Qingqing, who had finally caught up.

Seeing Ji Zhong, Ji Qingqing's face immediately showed disgust, and when she heard this, she glanced at Ji Zhong and snorted coldly: "Yes, my sister-in-law didn't know when she first came, strictly speaking, this person in front of her is still our elder, and we have to call him a cousin according to his seniority." ”

"The county lord is serious, and the villain is terrified." Ji Zhong bowed his head in shame, saw her walking forward, and hurriedly retreated to the side to get out of the way.

It turned out to be Ji Chaoge's cousin? Zhao Xinyue's eyes looked at him coldly, since he was Ji Chaoge's cousin, why was he sent here to guard the tomb? Doesn't it mean that the Ji family is scarce, and the old prince attaches great importance to bloodline?

"Open the door, this king will go down." Like Ji Qingqing, Ji Chaoge didn't have a good face for this cousin. Although the expression on his face was still light, Zhao Xinyue just knew that he was in a very bad mood at the moment.

Ji Zhong didn't dare to ask more when he heard this, he took the lead in walking over and opening the door of the outer chamber of the tomb, and after everyone had entered, he unscrewed the mechanism of the door of the inner chamber. A deafening roar rang out, and when the dust on the stone door cleared, the inner chamber of the tomb was exposed.

"Lord Wang, please." When the dust cleared, Ji Zhong immediately stepped aside and said respectfully to Ji Chaoge.

Ji Chaoge didn't even look at Ji Zhong, kowtowed three times to the coffin outside the door, and then raised his feet and walked quickly towards the coffin, taking a closer look along the coffin.

"But what's wrong?" Zhao Xinyue also kowtowed, and then walked into the inner room with her skirt.

After walking along the coffin three times, Ji Chaoge stopped and shook his head suspiciously, "There is nothing abnormal." ”

This is not right, if there is no abnormality, doesn't it mean that no one has touched the coffin, but if no one really moves, how did the white jade Guanyin who accompanied the burial appear in Ruyi Zhai? The more Zhao Xinyue thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, and pointed to the soul suppression nail on the coffin and asked, "Do you see if the order of these nails is correct?" ”

"Nails?" Ji Chaoge's heart jumped, and he immediately stared at it, and sure enough, he saw that something was wrong. "Someone has touched my father's coffin, Ji Zhong, what's going on?"

Hearing this, Ji Zhongtong knelt down, kowtowed and said in fear: "The villain doesn't know, the villain has been guarding the prince's mausoleum, and he has never found anything abnormal. The coffin has been moved, this is impossible. ”

"The facts are in front of you, and you still want to quibble? Ji Zhong, your father is as kind to you as a mountain, you don't know how to repay it, can't you even do such a thing as guarding your father's tomb? Ji Chaoge lowered his eyes sadly, and ordered Qingfeng: "Open the lid of the coffin." ”

"No, prince, you can't disturb the old prince's sleep." When Ji Zhong heard that he was going to open the coffin, he was so shocked that his face was pale, and he knelt down in front of Ji Chaoge and grabbed his trouser leg and begged bitterly. "You can't open the coffin, you can't disturb the soul of the old prince."

Ji Chaoge raised his lips mockingly, bent down to look at him, "My father's tomb has been dug up, and it has already been disturbed if I want to disturb it, don't you think it's superfluous to say this now?" Breeze, open the coffin! ”

"Yes, lord." Qingfeng and Ning Liang moved at the same time, removing the soul-calming nails on the coffin one by one, and then worked together to lift the lid of the heavy golden silk nanmu coffin.

"The prince can't, he can't open the coffin!" Ji Zhong desperately hugged Ji Chaoge's trouser leg and prevented him from moving forward to the coffin. "Lord Wang, you can't go."

"Go away!" Ji Chaoge struggled hard and shook off Ji Zhong, who was tightly wrapping his trouser legs. "Qingfeng, look at him."

Putting down the lid of the coffin with Ning Liang, Qingfeng quickly restrained Ji Zhong, who still wanted to rush towards the prince, twisted his two arms and warned in a low voice: "Second master, please don't be embarrassed." ”

Ji Zhong's eyes were red in a hurry, he glared at Qingfeng viciously, and said angrily: "Let go quickly, the prince can't see it, he can't let him see it." ”

"Why?" Qingfeng asked suspiciously, "Do you know anything?" ”

The breeze here was still pinching Ji Zhong, and over there Ji Chaoge had already walked to the coffin, and just when he looked inside, a black gas suddenly shot out from inside, heading straight for his front door. "Hmm!" Ji Chaoge snorted, raised his hand to cover his mouth and nose, but still inhaled a lot.

"Ji Jue!" Because of her awe of the dead, Zhao Xinyue didn't get too close to the coffin, so she saw the black gas more clearly than anyone else. "Ji Jue be careful, there are people inside!"

"This is my father's coffin, and there are naturally people inside." Ji Qingqing hadn't figured out the situation yet, and she was confused.

Just when Ji Chaoge's eyes were in severe pain and he covered his eyes and retreated, a black shadow ejected from the coffin, and the dagger in his hand stabbed towards Ji Chaoge's neck with a cold light.

"Ji Jue!" Zhao Xinyue exclaimed, her body moved faster than her brain, she raised her foot and kicked the wrist of the black shadow, and immediately pulled Ji Chaoge, who was still rubbing her eyes, to exit the inner room. All this happened in an instant, and when the black shadow saw that the blow was not successful, Ji Zhong, who was stunned next to the coffin, jumped into the coffin.

There was a sharp pain in his eyes, and Ji Chaoge subconsciously rubbed his eyes, but his hands were full of sticky black blood. "Xin'er!" Ji Chaoge whispered, "Stay away from the coffin, it's poisonous inside." ”

Does this still use him? She's not blind! Zhao Xinyue was anxious and angry, and when she saw that the others were still standing stupidly, she immediately shouted angrily: "What are you still standing stupidly for?!" The prince is poisoned, Qingfeng, you send the prince to detoxify. Ning Liang, you order troops to chase. Bengong still doesn't believe it, these thieves have great ability to come and go here freely. ”

Qingfeng didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly picked up Ji Chaoge and quickly went down the mountain, heading straight to the palace.

was angrily drunk by the princess, Ning Liang didn't dare to talk nonsense, quickly found all the people, pushed the coffin open and found an inverted hole straight up and down, and went down the inverted hole to the next layer, and sure enough, he saw that the coffin where the old prince's immortal body was stored was put aside. Fortunately, these tomb robbers did not get mad enough to open the coffin, but only stole all the burial objects in the tomb.

"Princess, I found the coffin where the old prince's immortal body was stored." Ning Liang climbed up along the rope and reported to Zhao Xinyue.

Zhao Xinyue's heart was lifted, and she hurriedly asked, "Is the coffin damaged?" ”

"No, these people still have a conscience, and they didn't touch the coffin of the old prince."

"That's good." Zhao Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Ji Qingqing, who was crying with red eyes: "I'll cry again later, go find a place to put your father's coffin." ”

Her father's grave was dug up, can she not cry? Ji Qingqing cried until she hiccuped, but she still obediently followed the coffin down the mountain with the guards.

She didn't know where to place her father's coffin, and she didn't know what to do next. Just when she was crying and didn't know what to do, a cyan figure suddenly came up halfway up the mountainside, wearing a cyan robe and spreading in the wind, as reassuring as heaven and earth.

"The county lord stays, the immortal body of the old prince should not leave Wanqing Mountain, otherwise it will ruin the luck of the Nanyang Palace. If the county lord can trust him, he will know that there is a good feng shui place in this mountain that is suitable for the old prince to sleep forever. ”

Besides, Ning Liang chased forward along the robbery cave, and directly chased Wan Qingshan, and when he walked out of the robbery cave, he found that this was actually an abandoned small village. After a search in the village, he unexpectedly found many treasures that had been reported by wealthy families in the city. What a deserted village is simply a den of thieves.

Because the carriage was used by Ji Chaoge, when Zhao Xinyue went down the mountain and was about to go back, there were only a few horses left behind by Qingfeng.

"Your Highness, it's not convenient for you to ride a horse in this dress." When Shirakura saw that there were only a few horses left at the foot of the mountain, her face immediately darkened.

Zhao Xinyue picked up the hem of her long skirt and stuffed it into her belt indifferently, stepped on the footstool and went directly to the horse, and smiled at Bai Ying: "That's convenient, let's go, Ji Chaoge was poisoned, I have to go back and take a look." ”

Seeing this, Bai Ying knew that persuasion was useless, and she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Your Highness, the county lord has not come back since the coffin of the old prince was placed, don't you have to wait?" ”
