In addition to the capital, several neighboring state capitals also began to rain intermittently, and the folds were handed to the palace one by one, Zhuang Lian was afraid of missing important news, so he stayed in the palace with Yun'an most of the time.

failed to leave the palace for two days, and Bai Taishi was the same as several Shangshu.

It wasn't until the third day that Yun'an, who was forced to deal with political affairs, couldn't stand it anymore and drove all the people back.

Zhuang Lian stopped Bai Taishi outside the palace and asked him about Emperor Rongxiao.

This emperor reigned for nearly 30 years, and suddenly mentioned that the past was messy, and Bai Taishi couldn't find a clue for a while.

The night wind was blowing, and the rain was beating on the two of them. The clever little eunuch saw it and hurriedly invited the people into the side hall.

After entering the hall, Bai Taishi remembered some old things, but it was difficult to speak.

In the past five years, he has experienced too many emperors, and when it comes to Emperor Rongxiao, in addition to his superb cooking skills and the mediocrity of not being in court for more than ten years, what comes to mind is the "glorious" deeds of the government being controlled by the grandfather of the Tang family.

Bai Taishi asked euphemistically: "What do you refer to?" ”

Yun stopped and said that everything would be dealt with when he came back.

Zhuang Lian was afraid that he would go out to startle the snake, so he gave a reason, "Before the prince left, he said that after he came back, he wanted to go to the imperial tomb to worship the ancestors and pray for the protection of the emperors of the past dynasties." Five Emperors Forward...... Ahem......"

Zhuang Lian couldn't say any more, the five who died too sloppily and did not have a serious mausoleum, and the most recent one had a separate mausoleum, and Emperor Rongxiao was left.

“…… Counting it up, Gongzi needs to call Emperor Rongxiao a grandfather, and he should go to pay respects. ”

"Worship Emperor Rongxiao?" Bai Taishi twisted his white brows, brushed his beard and pondered, and soon after, his face suddenly jumped, remembering the events that he had forgotten for a long time.

His expression turned solemn and said, "The old minister actually forgot one thing...... After the crown prince ascended the throne, he drove hundreds of concubines and maids from the emperor's harem to the imperial mausoleum...... If the prince goes to sacrifice, he must first send the person back. ”

A flash of lightning swept through the hall and slashed into Zhuang Lian's head, making him stunned for a moment.

“…… Are there concubines and maids in the imperial tomb? ”

"Yes, it's been five years." Bai Taishi said.

In the confusion, Zhuang Lian remembered the blood jade agate from Xiaoling in Tang Xian's hand, the treasures in the main tomb, and her life experience.

A down-and-out famous lady who married an old man and had a stepson, and the stepson was harsh......

And Yanxia's "mother"...... Empress?

Zhuang Lian's face turned pale, and he staggered to hold on to the table, not daring to continue to think deeply.

After a few big gasps, he aggravated his tone and asked in extreme incomprehension: "Since the burial system has been restored, why don't you see the records in the records?" ”

If he had known about this earlier, not to mention anything else, when he checked the case file of the funeral goods of the imperial mausoleum, Yun Zhu would have released the person.

How much hatred must be done to bury a living person!

Bai Taishi's face was embarrassed, he sighed, and said, "It's not a funeral...... When Emperor Jingguang was the crown prince, he was bullied by Emperor Rongxiao's concubine, and then he was oppressed by the Tang lord in the court and almost married the granddaughter of the Tang family...... After taking power, he could not bear the humiliation and wanted to execute all the concubines and Empress Tang......"

Most of those concubines were in their forties and fifteen or sixteen, and most of them were the daughters of courtiers and relatives.

Some officials were reluctant to speak up, so they begged to come to Master Bai.

Bai Taishi helped Emperor Jingguang a lot when he was still the crown prince and was quite trusted, so he took the risk and proposed to send people to the imperial tomb to guard the tomb.

It's better to die than to live, isn't it?

Emperor Jingguang responded, and issued an order for Empress Tang and those concubines to stay in the imperial tomb forever and worship his ancestors of the Yun family.

Inevitably accused by later generations of violating the funeral system explicitly forbidden by his ancestors, he deliberately erased all written records, which only a few old ministers knew.

When Emperor Jingguang was there, no one dared to mention it in front of him.

After his death, the emperor changed too quickly, everyone stared at the dragon chair, and gradually, the silent imperial tomb was forgotten.

Even Bai Taishi himself remembered this old incident after Zhuang Lian mentioned the filial piety tomb.

Zhuang Lian listened in disbelief, and then asked, "How to guard the mausoleum?" ”

"I don't know." Bai Taishi said, "It was Emperor Jingguang who personally arranged for him to reprimand those concubines. ”

Zhuang Lian listened to so much and was shocked over and over again, then calmed down a little, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and thought about it.

Tang Xian will not be one of the concubines guarding the mausoleum...... There are thousands of soldiers in the imperial tomb, and it is impossible for her to come and go freely......

Unless someone helps.

It's smoke.

But Yanxia couldn't sneak in quietly past so many soldiers.

Zhuang Lian began to have a headache because he remembered that the imperial tomb was haunted.

Pretending to be a ghost is exactly what Yanxia is good at.

If only she had been hiding in the imperial tomb for a few months......

No wonder no trace can be found in the capital, no wonder Tang Xian has always refused to reveal his identity.

Zhuang Lian is most worried about which of those concubines Tang Xian will be.

He prayed in his heart that he could never be the master of the harem......

It shouldn't be, Bai Taishi has seen Tang Xian, if it is, he should be able to recognize it.

Zhuang Lian was shocked by this, and after being looked at by Bai Taishi suspiciously, he stroked the fine sweat on his forehead, indicating that he would inform Yun Zhu of this matter in detail, and then thanked Bai Taishi and said goodbye.

He didn't even have time to return home, so he took pen and ink and wrote a letter to Yun Stop.

I can't imagine how Yun Zhu would react when he knew this...... It's terrible!

Zhuang Lian scratched his ears and cheeks and weighed the words, worked hard to write the letter, and when he returned home, it was already the third watch.

He was afraid to find out Tang Xian's identity, but if he didn't figure it out, he really couldn't sleep.

Tossing and turning for a long time, Zhuang Lian paced outside Lanqin Zhai in the middle of the night, braving the rain, and asked the maid to go in and shout Yanxia out.

The maid of the night watch was ordered, and went in lightly, and after half a cup of tea, stumbled out.

"Miss Yanxia is gone! Miss and Miss Zhuang are not in the dormitory either! ”

Zhuang Lian was shocked, took a big step forward, and asked in a shocking voice, "Where is Ming Carp?" ”

The maid stammered: "No, I didn't look at ......"

Before she finished speaking, Zhuang Lian had already pushed her away and walked inside, and in a very short time, countless candles lit in Lanqin Zhai.

The maids and guards were alarmed, and the crowd searched for them, but there was no sign of them.

Zhuang Lian hurriedly began to interrogate the maid with a white face, and the maid was so frightened that she couldn't say a complete sentence.

The patrol guard outside Lanqin Zhai stood up and said: "When it was dark, my subordinates had seen Miss ......"

Yun Yuan accused them of getting in the way of her playing, and told them to step back.

A few more people stood up, "My subordinates have seen Ming carp ......."

He was also deported.

The guards on the outermost part of the mansion pleaded guilty: "The subordinates met Captain Lin Beshu......"

"Lin Beishu, get out of here!" Zhuang Lian was furious.

The aftermath of anger echoed for a long time in the rainy night, and some people hurriedly ran back, panting and saying, "Captain Lin is also gone......

Zhuang Lian almost fainted.

Chapter 62: The Tea Shed

On the main road to the west of the capital, the carriage was galloping, and the smoke inside was shaking its legs trembling before the excitement had passed.

I thought that I would be arrested and returned to the house to die nine lives, but I ended up living for three days with good food and drink, and came out openly, and also kidnapped Yun Yuan and two guards.

As soon as she thought about how Zhuang Lian would be furious when she returned home, she "sneered" and laughed.

The laughter was too weird, and the repentant carp looked at each other angrily, and reprimanded: "You can still laugh? When it reaches the ears of Childe, you will really die without a corpse! ”

"You are an accomplice, and you can't escape." Smoke provokes.

The carp's expression stiffened, and the remorse on his face became even heavier.

At this time, there are four people and one cat in the carriage, and the carp is the one with the highest force value, and can subdue Yanxia with one hand. The remaining Tang Xian and Yun Yuan could not pose any threat, and if they let them run out of Erli Land first, they could easily be captured by the carp.

There is no need for Lin Beishu, who is rushing outside, to make a move.

Yanxia saw that her expression was not good, and she hurriedly went back to make up for it, "There are two children...... Mao Mao is here, and Childe will not kill anyone if he knows. Mao Mao won't allow it, will he, Mao Mao? ”

Tang Xian hugged Yun Yuan, absentmindedly touched the cat in her arms, and did not answer.

"Ahem!" Yanxia coughed heavily.

Tang Xian came back to her senses, "Hmm." ”

Yanxia continued to pretend to be a tiger, "Besides, it was Mao Mao and Miss who gave the order together, did you not listen to Miss, or did you disobey Mao Mao's instructions?" You think clearly, Gongzi wants Maomao to be our master. ”

After secretly threatening, she said: "It's not that I said, only the prince in the house is obedient, and Mao Mao is my henchman, and you treat him as an enemy...... She doesn't even have the freedom to go home to see her father, how can she dare to agree to marry her son? ”

"Stuffy in the house and depressed, when the son comes back, she only has a pile of white bones left, can the son be happy? I'll just say you're not clever enough......"

She has said these words many times with Tang Xian's cooperation.

Since Yanxia proposed to let Tang Xian leave the house by the way of rebellion, Tang Xian used her brains.

She thought of two ways, one was to hijack Yun Yuan.

Not to mention the sadness of doing this, Zhuang Lian may not believe it, and she is frail, so this can only be done by Yanxia. - Afterwards, the smoke will definitely be peeled by the clouds.

Tang Xian wanted to leave, not to turn against Yun Zhu. You can't do that.

The other is to force each other to death.

…… Not.

"I miss home...... Tang Xian finally decided to pretend to be depressed and sick, giving birth to a heart disease, and crying bitterly in the wind and rain outside the window every day.

Yun Yuan believed that it was true, and coaxed her to be happy next to her every day.

Yanxia cleverly added fuel to the fire, "It's a good thing to say, it's not that you are alone outside without a father or mother...... It's a shame that Maomao loves you so much, and you have no conscience...... It's no wonder that it's not my sister in the end, and I don't really treat Maomao well......"

Yun Yuan was crying by her words, wiping her tears to justify: "I'm not!" I'm sincere about Maomao! ”
