Chapter 40: The Test
I cursed in my heart
"Old fox". continued: "Does the prince know how many burial tombs there are in the area of this ancient tomb of Sun Quan in the mausoleum area before the Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum? Zhu Lian was stunned, stared at me for a moment, and then touched the goat's beard under his chin and shook his head.
I cursed in my heart: "Old fox, didn't you expect me to know? Still lukewarm, he said, "There are 68 burial tombs in total." ”
"What, there are 68 of them?" Zhu Lian asked with a surprised expression. I nodded quickly and said, "Not bad!" Zhu Lian said: "I really didn't expect that there would be so many burial tombs, it seems that this Sun Quan is effectively imitating the ambition of the first emperor of the ages!" I said, "But did the prince know that among the 68 burial tombs, many of them were stolen and excavated." Zhu Lian exclaimed: "What? How so? I smiled indifferently and was secretly proud in my heart.
Deliberately slowing down the speed of speech. Zhu Lian seemed to be anxious to know more about Sun Quan's ancient tomb, and when he saw that I didn't say anything, an unpleasant look flashed on his face, and he soon showed a smile, which more or less made me feel a little chill.
I looked at the smile on his face, I don't know why the more I looked, the colder it became, and the smile on his face in the end could kill people, I thought to myself, it seems that this King of Jinling is determined to win the matter of this Sun Quan ancient tomb!
At the moment, I am afraid of provoking this prince with fine clothes and jade food, and I have been out for a long time, I have a faint uneasy feeling in my heart, and I don't know what happened to Sun Fei, Zhao Wu and others, I really dare not delay any longer.
At that moment, he said loudly: "Can the prince know why the 68 ancient tombs of the Sun Quan Tomb have been stolen, but the Sun Quan Ancient Tomb is still intact after a thousand years?" Zhu Lian heard what I meant, and hurriedly said: "This, please also ask Tang Zhutou for advice!" I didn't want to stay long, and said, "Did the prince ever know that among the many imperial tombs, there are those two emperors' tombs that can be called the best tombs?" Zhu Lian lowered his head and thought for a moment and said: "The first one should be the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and then the Mausoleum of Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty." I said: "What the prince said is extremely true, the mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang after his death was built into a square shape, and it has been influencing the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty in the future. In the Tang Dynasty, Tang Taizong Li Shimin leaned on the mountain as a mausoleum, and there was a complete Shinto and stone carving system in front of the mausoleum, which affected the entire Tang Dynasty until the Song Dynasty. This Sun Quan is following the example of Emperor Qin and Han Wu in everything, and this mausoleum is naturally built in a square shape! Zhu Lian nodded and said: "Tang Zhutou has analyzed it very well, but this king still doesn't understand, what does this have to do with Sun Quan's ancient tomb not being stolen?" I paused and said: "This prince doesn't know, this Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum is still a mystery after thousands of years, Sun Quan follows Qin Shi Huang in everything, so I guess Sun Quan's ancient tomb must have a lot of similarities with the first emperor." Zhu Lian was silent.
I continued: "The ancient tomb of the first emperor is built in Lishan, the construction process according to folklore adopts the construction method of digging a deep cave from top to bottom at the top of the mountain, waiting for the underground palace to be built, after the burial, and then backfill the hole dug out with boulders, soil, etc., in order to build this mausoleum, Qin Shi Huang can be said to have spent a lot of time and silver, but although this construction method is relatively large, the construction time is also very long, but it can protect the safety of the underground palace to the greatest extent, and it is very solid. Although this method of construction is cumbersome, it can confuse many tomb robbers better. Those tomb robbers who once tried to excavate the tomb of Qin Shi Huang dug at the top of the mountain for a while and encountered the rocks of the mountain itself, so they had to give up. Therefore, although the Qin Shi Huang has been dead for thousands of years, his mausoleum is still proud of the underground. Zhu Lian sighed: "Sure enough, he is an emperor through the ages, and he is invincible before and after death!" "I wasn't in the mood to listen to Zhu Lian's exclamation, and I was in a hurry to get out.
Zhu Lian sighed for a moment and then continued to ask: "Sun Quan inherited the Qin and Han dynasties and the Sui and Tang dynasties, and his mausoleum can be preserved for thousands of years, is there anything special?" I paused for a moment and said: "What the prince said is true, this Sun Quan is a generation of overlords, although he does not have the credit of Qin Shi Huang to dominate the world, but he can also divide the world with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and he has been fighting with Cao Cao and Liu Bei for so many years, and he can be regarded as a master of great talent." He inherited the Qin and Han dynasties and the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the mausoleum naturally had some differences. After he became emperor in the twenty-ninth year of Jian'an, he ordered a feng shui master to find a feng shui treasure for himself, and finally fell in love with the feng shui treasure land of Ming Xiaoling. In the first year of Shenfeng, Sun Quan died, at the age of 70, buried on the hill in the south of Zhongshan Mountain, it is the burial place of Sun Linggang in the name of the mountain, that is, the burial place of the Plum Blossom Mountain today, which is also the earliest mausoleum of the six dynasties of the Ming Dynasty. Sun Linggang is also buried with Sun Quan's wife Bu and his wife Pan, and Sun Deng, the prince of Xuanming, is also buried near Sun Ling. Today, only Sun Quan's tomb has not been stolen, which has a lot to do with the mausoleum built by Sun Quan. Although Sun Quan imitated the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, after taking the Ming Tomb as his mausoleum, he ordered the master to build the mausoleum to build the tomb of the underground palace of his mausoleum on the side of the central axis of the mausoleum, and it was not located on the central axis of the Ming Tower like the previous underground palace, but on one side. This design is very different from the tomb design of the underground palace of the first emperor and the tomb of the first emperor of the Han Dynasty. In this way, it is almost impossible for grave robbers to find the tomb without detection equipment. In addition, there is a thick layer of pebbles under the high mound of sealed soil on the top of Sun Quan's underground palace, and the shape of these pebbles is relatively rounded. In the mausoleum of the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, there are basically no pebbles. According to the laws of nature, natural pebbles should be located in low-lying valleys, formed by the erosion of larger stones over a long period of time. However, these pebbles unconventionally appear on the top of the mountain in Dulongfu. The pebbles were laid there by hand. This will better confuse the tomb robbers! Zhu Lian nodded again and again, and a sound came out of his mouth
The "hmm" sound is extremely soft. I glanced at Zhu Lian, and said secretly in my heart: "What I said is almost the same, enough to make this old fox reminisce!" If I hadn't asked, I wouldn't have said any more! Just when I was secretly happy in my heart, Zhu Lian asked again: "This king is still a little strange, the pebbles of this ancient tomb of Sun Quan are not just to confuse the tomb robbers, right?" There must be other effects, right? I was shocked and scolded: "Old fox, you reacted so quickly, it's really a fucking old fox!" "Scolding and scolding, the words still have to be continued.
I paused for a moment and continued: "The prince has a good idea, in addition to confusing those low-level tomb robbers, these pebbles also have the effect of directing the water gathered at the top of the treasure into the drainage facilities set up, and the pebbles are also a specially designed and ingenious anti-theft facility. When a grave robber digs a hole in the cobblestone and tries to dig down to the dungeon, the rounded pebbles will quickly slip down and fill the hole. Tomb robbers dig holes again, and they will still be in this situation, if they want to dig to the top of the underground palace, unless they carry all the pebbles on it. As soon as my words fell, Zhu Lian laughed twice and said: "What a cunning Sun Quan, this mausoleum was built by him so hidden, it seems that it is really not for ordinary people to go to steal books!" I didn't answer, I sat quietly, thinking about what else he had to say!" Zhu Lian suddenly smiled at this time, looked at my face with a pair of round eyes, and said to me in a flattering tone: "Tang Zhutou is so knowledgeable, let this king admire it, if Tang Zhutou does not dislike it, can you join this king's command and accompany me to use it for my own use?" "I was shocked, but I didn't expect this old fox to start to buy it.
I stood up, arched my hand slightly, and said: "Duoxiu Wangye's love for Tianyou, Tianyou is not talented, I'm afraid I won't be blessed!" Zhu Lian said: "What? Isn't Tang Zhutou unwilling? I smiled in my heart, and said with a serious look on my face: "It's because I'm used to being at ease on weekdays, I'm afraid I won't be able to live the life of brocade clothes and jade food in this palace!" Zhu Lian's brows furrowed, the murderous aura on his face appeared, and he said in a cold tone: "Don't worry, Tang Zhutou, this king will definitely not treat you badly, as for you who are not used to living a decent life in the palace, this king can allow you to come and go freely!" After speaking, Zhu Lian's eyes were firmly fixed on my face.
I secretly said in my heart: "It seems that this old fox is determined to buy me, if you don't agree today, there are really some problems going back, but how can a dignified seven-foot man be threatened, the ancients still have poverty and humility can not be moved, rich and noble can not be lewd, mighty and unyielding, let alone me?" Thinking of this, I said with a straight face: "Thank you for your love, I am really used to living a life of idle clouds and wild cranes, swords and swords, so I hope that the prince will be fulfilled!" Zhu Lian's face changed, and the row of warriors guarding on both sides also glared at me angrily, and they could do it at any time!
The whole hall was so quiet at the moment that I could hear even a needle falling on the ground clearly, and all I heard in my ears was the sound of my heartbeat, and I subconsciously clenched the dragon sword on my waist.
After a long time, Zhu Lian stood up from his seat, glared at me with a pair of round eyes, and then said in a cold tone: "Since this is the case, then the king can only endure the pain and cut his love!" As soon as Zhu Lian's words fell, I sighed in my heart, but I still stood still with my body bowed, and my heart was still not relaxed at all.
It wasn't until Zhu Lian walked towards his dormitory with his hands behind his back that my heart relaxed a little, exhaled heavily, and stood up with my bowed body.
Zhu Lian said to me as he walked towards the dormitory: "Tang Zhutou, welcome to this palace next time!" As soon as I heard it, I knew that this was the meaning of sending off guests, but for some reason my heart was completely put down, and I hurriedly said: "Thank you for the love of the prince, the villain will definitely come!" Zhu Lian didn't reply again, and walked straight towards his dormitory, and his figure walked farther and farther away in a vague way, until the dormitory disappeared from the depths.
I looked at Zhu Lian's disappearing back, and I felt a joy in my heart for some reason. At the moment, he didn't dare to stay more, and quickly walked out of Jinling Mansion.
At this time, it was almost dark, and I didn't dare to stay more, so I started my light work and flew towards Sun Fei and Zhao Wu. Sun Fei and Zhao Wu didn't expect me to go for so long, I haven't eaten, and I'm standing on the slope waiting for me to come back.
At this time, Lu Shuang found an inn nearby, and then changed out of the original black silk dress and put on a white long dress.
It was so beautiful that I stopped and froze. Sun Fei came over at this time and asked in a low voice, "Who wants to see you?" I said, "Zhu Lian, King of Jinling!" Sun Fei Zhao Wu said: "Zhu Lian, King of Jinling, what is he looking for you?" I was silent.
Turn around and walk towards a guest room. Seeing that Sun Fei was silent, she followed softly, and I saw Sun Fei come in and slowly closed the door.
As soon as the door closed, there was a knock on the door, and I frowned, stood in the center of the room and whispered, "Who?" A voice said, "It's me!" Lu Shuang! I glanced at Sun Fei and said, "Is there something wrong?" Lu Shuang groaned and said, "No, no, I have a few words I want to ask Brother Tang!" I looked down and thought for a moment before turning and walking towards the door.
I opened the latch, Lu Shuang smiled, and then walked in with a slight flash.
