Main Characters: Yu Yuanzheng, Shangguan Ziqi
Yu Yuanzheng transmigrated into the original host on her wedding night. Upon arriving, she was immediately forced to listen to her cousin and hus...
They took out the treasure map again and looked at it.
There are only some lines and a few mountain names on the map, and the mountain name marked is not Jiulong Mountain.
But it is Lingshan.
Lingshan?
"Your Highness, does 'Lingshan' mean the mountain where the imperial mausoleum is located?" Shangguan Ziqi suddenly had an idea.
Looking at the names of several surrounding mountains, they are different from the names of the mountains near Jiulong Mountain, making it difficult to be sure.
"It should be. We stood on the highest peak and looked around. There are indeed several mountains. Their locations are similar to the ones marked on the map."
"So the treasure is really in Jiulong Mountain?"
"Almost right." The prince felt that they had found the right place.
But it is indeed difficult to determine the specific location.
"We have changed different positions and drawn ten pictures.
We will go and study it further. It will probably take some time to find the exact location."
The prince looked at the peaks in the distance again. They matched the ones marked on the treasure map, except that the names were different. This made him more certain that they were not in the wrong place.
"Um."
While they were searching everywhere in the mountains, a hunter dressed as an ordinary person also appeared in the mountains.
They are no different from ordinary hunters.
Shangguan Ziqi and his companions also met one or two of them.
When I met two people, I saw so many of them wandering in the mountains, so I pretended to be scared and left quickly.
Seeing that they were just ordinary hunters, Shangguan Ziqi and the prince didn't take them too seriously.
The troops returned to Fu City.
After seeing them leave, the hunter quietly left Jiulong Mountain and went to the city.
Come to a relatively remote courtyard.
"Boy, we're here." A sturdy man saw Ye Yong basking in the spring sunshine in the yard and stepped forward to bow.
"Well, let's talk inside." Ye Yong turned his wheelchair in another direction.
Ye Quan immediately pushed Ye Yong into the inner room.
"Go ahead." Ye Yong said calmly.
"Brother, let's dress up as hunters, follow the prince and others, and observe their actions.
We found that they were always circling around the royal tombs of the previous dynasty, and they had blueprints in their hands.
Because it is too far away, we can't see clearly what is drawn on the drawing.
Prince Xi and Prince Rong observed the behavior of the people in different places in the mountains, judging what they might be looking for.
But I haven’t found it yet.”
Ding Jian reported calmly.
"Oh? Looking for something?" Ye Yong couldn't figure it out for a moment, "Could it be that they want to rob the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty?"
"Although they circled the imperial mausoleum several times, they did not find the entrance to the imperial mausoleum. I am not sure whether they are targeting the imperial mausoleum."
"The imperial mausoleum has always been full of traps. No royal family of the new dynasty has dared to touch the mausoleum of the previous dynasty. This is also against the rules of the country. Is it possible that the Great Wei is so poor?
No matter how poor one is, he would never touch the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty.
If they did move, once the news spread, it would naturally be recorded by some guards and would be talked about by future generations.
Moreover, it is impossible for the Emperor of Wei to guarantee that the imperial power of Wei will last forever.
It would be interesting if the Wei Dynasty was destroyed in the future and the later dynasties dug up the Cao family’s imperial tombs like they did.
So the Cao family would not leave any trouble for themselves." Ye Yong said.
He was right. The later dynasties generally did not dig up the imperial tombs of the previous dynasties. This was done for the world to see and to prevent their own imperial tombs from being dug up by later generations. The mechanisms inside were mainly to prevent some illegal tomb robbers.
Moreover, the laws of every dynasty defined tomb robbers as top criminals.
"Then what are they looking for in the mountains?" Ye Quan frowned and thought.
Several people fell into deep thought for a moment.
"Did you listen closely to what the Crown Prince and Prince Rong said?" Ye Yong couldn't figure out what they were looking for for a moment and wanted to know more.
"No, we didn't dare to get close at all. There were more than a dozen of them, and all of them were good fighters in the army. They thought we were hunters, so they didn't do anything to us. If we got a little closer to them, we would be driven away." Ding Jian said truthfully.
They tried to get closer, but failed.
“Did they take the locals up the mountain?”
"Yes. He is an old man."
"Go and find out if this old man has been sent home."
"Yes. Zizi."
Ding Jian immediately went out to inquire about this matter.
I came back after dark, and to my great regret, the old man had been taken to the Prince's Inn and had not been brought home.
Ye Yong was not disappointed, as this was within his expectations.
That night, Ye Yong tossed and turned in bed.
What on earth are the prince and others looking for here?
I just can't figure it out.
Something that can make a prince of a country come out in person to look for it must be very precious.
What could it be? It is near the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty.
The next day, several subordinates wandered around the city and found out that Zhenguo Xi was going to vaccinate all the people in Quanzhou Prefecture with cowpox vaccine.
At the same time, he also inquired about the situation of Zhenguo and found out that the governor of Fengrong City had given a good idea, a wine-making technology that could increase the income of the people.
When Ding Jian told Ye Yong these two pieces of news as gossip, Ye Yong sighed that Zhenguo Xi was really good at making money.
He knew that Zhenguo had opened many pharmacies, and he had bought those pills and taken them, and the effects were indeed good.
It's no secret that Zhenguo Xiaoyu is a money-loving man.
Wealth, money!
Ye Yong suddenly had an idea.
Could it be that the prince and his men came here just for wealth? The imperial tombs of the previous dynasty would not be moved, but if there was wealth hidden here, they would definitely move it.
Now that the Wei treasury is so empty that a rat could enter, it is normal for the emperor to carry forward the wealth and fortune left over from the previous dynasty.
Once this guess entered my mind, it could not be shaken off.
Regardless of whether his guess was right or not, he had to create some trouble for the prince and the others this time, making it harder for them to achieve their wishes, which could also be considered as a way to vent his godfather's anger.
He was incompetent and could not avenge his godfather, but his godfather wanted him to live, so he could only do this.
"Ye Quan, bring everyone here." Ye Yong made up his mind.
"Yes, Koko."
All the subordinates came to the inner room one after another.
Several people secretly discussed the next action.
Only seven people are going to stir up trouble.
The prince, Shangguan Ziqi and others went to the inn and placed all the drawings they had made on the table one by one, looking at the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty and the mountains within a radius of thirty miles from different angles.
But after studying it for several days, I still couldn't figure it out.
Yu Yuanzheng also studied each picture, but couldn't see anything.
The place can be confirmed, but the exact entrance cannot be found.
What's the point of this treasure map? It just leads people here, but doesn't tell them where it is.
Do I have to dig deep into the ground to find it?
No, you won’t find it if you dig three meters deep. Even if you dig two meters deep, you may not find it.
Everyone was at an impasse.
It's on Jiulong Mountain, but I don't know its exact location.
That night, the couple lay in bed, neither of them could sleep.
"Husband, could he be inside the imperial mausoleum?" Yu Yuanzheng asked speculatively.
“Impossible, the imperial mausoleums have always been carefully designed and built by the royal families of each dynasty.
If you hide the treasure inside, there is a possibility that it will be destroyed.
So I won’t do that.” Shangguan Ziqi was sure.
“That’s really hard to guess.” Yu Yuanzheng thought it would be easy to get the treasure with the treasure map, but it turned out to be a big mystery.
"Do you think the royal family of the previous dynasty might have some words to remind future generations that were not passed down?" Shangguan Ziqi thought of a possibility.
"That's possible. You can be considered a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, but it's a pity that you know nothing." Yu Yuanzheng sighed.
"My great-grandmother probably didn't know either.
When the previous dynasty fell, the palace was captured by Emperor Canglan. At that time, the last monarch committed suicide in the imperial study, and he smashed the jade seal on the ground.
Now we know that the one he broke was a fake.
But he was reluctant to smash the real jade seal, which had been passed down for many years.
Then it is very likely that he just wants to keep this secret hidden forever.
He did not want to benefit future dynasties, nor did he want his descendants to restore the country.
There is only one Xiaolu left, and he does not have the ability. Only by hiding the secret can this only bloodline survive safely. "
"Now that you and your father know that you are the descendants of the previous dynasty, do you have any other ideas?"
Yu Yuanzheng turned around and faced Shangguan Ziqi, wanting to see any changes in his expression.
Power makes people greedy.
She wondered if her husband would be tempted by this.
