233. Clothed mound

I frowned, "Are you going to grab a bowl of porridge from me?" Isn't there a vegetable and pork rice in it? ”

"I don't like to eat, I like to eat light."

After thinking about it carefully, I asked myself: when did he like to eat light? In the past, we were in Orchid Garden, and after being influenced by Yan Qi, I could still eat lightly, but he would add some meat dishes every time.

I didn't bother to argue with him, so I just asked, "Is there anything else in the pot?" I'll go serve a little more. ”

"Xiao Qi boiled this bowl."

I didn't believe it, but I went into the stove room to turn over the lid of the pot, and I really didn't find it after looking for a long time. Yan Qi came over and asked me what I was looking for, and I said that I was looking for the porridge you boiled, but I heard him: "That porridge was boiled by Gongzi." ”

I was stunned and asked, "Then does he have any food?" ”

"No, I heard you say that you haven't eaten much these days and offered to cook porridge for you personally, in fact, it was boiled in the pot in the morning, and it was kept warm on a charcoal fire until the evening, so there was only one bowl left."

I was still alone in the room at night, and I didn't let Ah Ping in, but ...... I didn't close the door either. In a daze, I felt as if I heard a voice, and I saw a dark figure slowly approaching the bed, and closed my eyes again. I listened to the sound of the ropes around me, and when it was finally quiet, I fell asleep again.

I woke up at dawn and felt my shoulders heavy, and when I turned my head, I saw a magnified face buried in my neck socket, and my long eyelashes covered those black eyes like fan feathers, and the blue shadow under the eyes was very deep, I was afraid that I hadn't slept well for many days.

In the past, he was like a stove, and he could sweat when he leaned on him so closely, but now even if he leaned tightly, he felt the coldness on his body, and he didn't feel the heat when he touched his forehead and hands. He sighed lightly, and looked closely, his face was still a sickly pale, but at least it was much better than that day when he suddenly collapsed in the woods. At present, except for the cold symptoms on his body, the rest of the symptoms have not been seen, and I think that Imperial Doctor Jiang will do everything possible to cure him during this time.

I tried to break free and get up and get off the ground, but after only a little back, he unconsciously approached again, and wrapped his hands and feet around me. I thought he was going to wake up, but after waiting for a while, he still didn't get up, so I pushed him, and heard him mutter: "Daughter-in-law, let me sleep for a while." "I said in my heart that you want to sleep, why are you pulling me? I also want to get up early and put a stick of incense on Daddy and Auntie.

Untied his hand and pushed with some force, but unexpectedly, the person was pushed away by me, but the person also sank......

Well, I completely forgot that there was an underground secret room in my house. Ah Ping suddenly woke up the moment he sank, but it was too late, only a muffled bang was heard, and he had fallen into the pit under the bed.

His dissatisfied voice came from below: "Daughter-in-law, you are plotting to kill your husband." ”

It was okay to hear the sound, but I lay at the entrance of the cave and looked inside, it was dark and I couldn't see anything, and I couldn't help asking, "Are you okay?" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard his muffled grunt, and then said, "It seems that my foot has been injured and I can't move." ”

"I'm going to call someone." hurriedly got off the ground and was about to run out to call Yan Qi, but he stopped him: "Don't, daughter-in-law, this is our family's secret, how can it be known to everyone?" Just come down and help me. ”

Hearing this, I guessed that he had lied to me again, but I still got into the hole uneasily, and sure enough, he was able to hold my waist and help me land smoothly. He asked angrily, "Didn't you say that your foot was broken?" ”

He replied solemnly: "I really fell and hurt, but I'm afraid that you will fall when you come down, so I have to endure the pain and hug you." ”

This war of tongues is superfluous with him, and he can always find a reason to answer me. I had to follow him and ask, "Then how do you go up now?" Can you still climb it? ”

"Daughter-in-law, since we're down, let's go inside and have a look."

I looked at the passage where I couldn't see my fingers, and I was about to push it but said it was too dark, but I heard the fire light lit up after two heavy blows next to me, and it was Ah Ping who blew the fire fold. He stretched out his hand and touched the wall above my head, and he touched an oil lamp and lit it with a fire.

The next capital has already come down, so I simply go inside. It's just that the underground cold is quite heavy, and I'm afraid that Ah Ping won't be able to stand the cold, so he said as if he knew what I was thinking: "There's a brazier in it, let's go in and light it, or it's quite cold." I nodded silently, but the temperature was fine for me, not cold.

I was afraid that my foot was really sprained, and I saw him limping against the wall, and he had to carry an oil lamp in his other hand, so I couldn't help but step forward and take the oil lamp in my hand and hold him. Pushing open the door of the secret room, a stale smell poured out, it was inevitable that this place would be left cold for a long time, including the desktop and bookshelves were covered with dust.

Ah Ping said abruptly: "This place has been shelved since we left to go to the capital, although there are people from above to arrange cleaning, but the bottom is related to the secret of my father's clothed mound, so I have never let anyone know, but it has also made this place dusty." ”

"If you don't clean for a long time, you will get dust, what's so strange. Just clean it up, but do you need to see your father inside? ”

Ah Ping listened to my nod, and immediately opened the bookshelf door and walked in, forgetting to pretend to be "lame".

I looked left and right, and went first - I lit the brazier, and instead of firewood, it was a special briquette-like fuel that had no smell and would warm the room in a few moments. I was about to go and find the cloth to start cleaning, but I was startled by a rumbling sound behind the bookshelf, and I rushed in, but I couldn't help but be stunned.

In fact, in addition to a coffin, there is only one desk in this small space, and incense burners are placed on the desk. However, there are permanent lamps lit around the walls here, so the interior is brightly illuminated. But at this time, the scene in the room shocked me, and the first thing he saw when he came in was that the coffin containing his father's clothes and mound had fallen to the side at this time, combined with the loud noise just now, I was afraid that it would be pushed down by Ah Ping himself.

Look at his eyes with anger again, and his face turned red with excitement, staring at the coffin that had fallen to the ground.

"What's wrong?" I asked, and he didn't answer me. When I went to inspect it carefully, the more I looked, the more frightened I became, although the coffin fell to the ground, but there should be Aping's father's shroud and some funeral goods in the coffin, and now not to mention the funeral goods, even the clothes and mounds did not fall on the ground, the whole was empty! Is this a thief?

A vague figure flashed in my mind, I don't remember its name very well, but I still remember that there was a thief who visited the house twice, because the other party found out that it felt that the purple qi was extremely strong here, and he was buried either as a prince or a nobleman or a general.

Could it be that the thief has come again? But this professional ethics is too bad, it can loot all the clothes and graves of others, leaving no room for people at all.

Knowing that the stakes were high, Ah Ping must have been very angry when he saw the stolen coffin, otherwise he would not have pushed everything to the ground. I can only step forward to comfort: "It's happened, don't be too angry, think about what can be done?" ”

Ah Ping turned his eyes, and his eyes changed from resentment to remorse: "Lan, it's my unfilial piety that makes my father unpeaceful under Jiuquan." I immediately grabbed the white: "You know again?" The affairs under the Nine Springs were not considered until they were under the Nine Springs, and now we can only manage the above the Nine Springs. Let's straighten my father's coffin first, and you shouldn't knock it down indiscriminately if you are angry. ”

His eyes dimmed, but he still listened to my words in his ears, and the two of me went to help the coffin one by one, and it took a lot of effort to help it to its original position. I asked Ah Ping Ke and the clothes in front of his father, which was to make another one over the other side.

But seeing him, he shook his head and said: "It was the emperor's grandfather who specially ordered me to bring the crown prince's clothes here to erect a crown mound and keep filial piety for three years, and the robe that was stolen was the prince's clothes before my father's death." ”

That is, it is impossible to find any other clothes to look at the prince's robe, and I found that this may be the reason for the burning of the lantern, the air is very dry, so the robe can be left as it is. I thought of the whole wall of books outside, and I couldn't help but ask: "Since it is filial piety, I wonder if I can use those books outside, aren't they all passed down by my father?" ”

"But can this still be called a mound of clothes?"

"Stupid, the mound is just a name, you put a book in it and say it's a robe, who can really look through it? Even if the emperor's grandfather really knows about it, you can say that for his father's life, the classics and books are everything. ”

Ah Ping's anger finally dissipated, and he looked at me with a flash of light, and then said slowly: "Lan, you are teaching me to commit the crime of defrauding the king!" But I think your proposal is a good one. ”

"Do you want to do that?"

He paused for a moment and nodded affirmatively: "Yes!" ”

So the two of us began to move the books back and forth, and almost half of the wall of books were moved into the coffin, and then we closed it together. Ah Ping twisted three long incense sticks in his hand and lit them in his hand, bent down towards the coffin and kowtowed to the end, and said bitterly: "Father, it is the child who is unfilial, and you are infested by thieves underground, and I am bound to find out the thief and press it in front of you to ask for the guilt." ”
