Shen Zhiyi watched quietly.
The emperor, who was originally eager to save his mother, suppressed his impatience.
His mother is already very old, and the other party definitely isn't after sex.
He didn't kill his mother either, which means he didn't want to kill him.
That is...
[This pretty boy opened the coffin of the late emperor! ]
The old emperor's eyelids twitched.
[Oh my god, this pretty boy is a tomb robber. ]
The old emperor could no longer sit still, and ordered the Dragon Scale Guards to quickly capture the tomb robber.
After a while.
The Dragon Scale Guard asked the old emperor silently.
"Where is the imperial tomb?"
Old Emperor: ...
The location of the imperial tomb is generally kept secret. Once the tomb is built, it will only be guarded by tomb keepers from generation to generation.
Therefore, every time the Empress Dowager went to the imperial mausoleum, she did not bring many people with her.
The old emperor sighed deeply.
He shouldn't have agreed to let his mother come to Luozhou.
[Hahaha, I am so happy laughing. This pretty boy is complaining about the small amount of burial objects for the late emperor.]
The old emperor lowered his head guiltily.
[They still think that the things buried with the late emperor are not high-quality enough, and there are even fakes. ]
The old emperor lowered his head again guiltily.
[Oh, and I'm also disgusted that the late emperor didn't have any gold teeth since all his teeth fell out. ]
The old emperor lowered his head again guiltily.
【Finally, I made a comment: What a poor emperor. 】
The old emperor seemed to have done some psychological work and calmly accepted that he had lost his face in front of the tomb robbers.
Shen Zhiyi laughed in his heart for a full ten minutes.
The others couldn't laugh, they just felt their faces burning with pain.
You know, when the emperor died, the burial objects had to meet the specifications. If there were fakes, people would think it was a joke if they told others about it.
Thinking of this, many people secretly looked at Minister Chen of the Ministry of Rites.
At this time, Minister Chen of the Ministry of Rites also looked puzzled.
What are you looking at me doing?
He hadn't passed the exam when the late emperor died.
But even so, it was impossible for the Ministry of Rites to make a mistake in such a major event.
So what went wrong?
Minister Chen of the Ministry of Rites looked at Shen Zhiyi, who was trembling all over, and wanted to ask what was going on.
As a member of the Ministry of Rites, he didn't believe that the Ministry would make such a big and basic mistake.
Shen Zhiyi, who had been laughing for a full ten minutes, finally reacted.
[That's not right. Even though the late emperor was only the emperor for a few months, he was still the emperor. How could he be so poor? ]
Yeah yeah.
The courtiers around nodded. This was really a bit embarrassing.
After all, he was the founding emperor of Daye.
Could it be that the late emperor’s tomb had already been visited by tomb robbers in advance?
This possibility is very high.
[Look at the emperors of the previous dynasties. Each of their coffins was filled to the brim. Every time a tomb robber went there, he would become rich. Even the last emperor who was despised by everyone had a tomb built to the same specifications. There was no trace of poverty at all. Why did it become different when it came to Daye? ]
The court officials of Daye present were ashamed and angry.
This is simply a great humiliation.
It’s bad enough that he is not as powerful as the emperor of the previous dynasty, but how can he be worse than the last emperor of the previous dynasty!
Many people began to turn their eyes to the old emperor.
The old emperor still felt guilty.
He began to hesitate whether to stop Shen Zhiyi!
But the seeds of doubt had been planted in Shen Zhiyi's heart, and in the spirit of exploration, she quickly scanned the surveillance.
[Oh my god, the old emperor is such a filial son. ]
Everyone looked at the emperor in the first place with question marks on their heads.
What does Shen Zhiyi mean by this.
[The late emperor died in an ignominious and abrupt way, but the other party had already prepared for his afterlife. He had clearly written down what he needed to be buried with, and had also specifically instructed his son, who is now the old emperor.]
Shen Zhiyi cleared his throat.
[Ahem, my son, you can only open it after I die. ]
[Hey, the old emperor thought his father was going to tell him something important or that his father had hidden some valuable treasure waiting for him to take, but when he opened it...]
【Hahahaha, then the old emperor got furious.】
The old emperor became furious when he heard this.
Even though he is about to die, he still remembers this incident clearly.
He was filled with joy at the time, but when he opened his eyes, he wished he could poke his own eyes out.
[The late emperor requested that he be clothed in a jade suit after his death, but the old emperor replaced it with an iron suit.]
The court officials present looked at the old emperor in shock.
Oh, this is a bit too cruel.
[The old emperor still had some conscience and left a piece of jade for the late emperor. ]
Everyone: ...
[The late emperor requested that a large amount of silk and brocade be buried with him, with exquisite patterns and bright colors, but the old emperor replaced these with coarse linen clothes.]
The court officials present looked at the old emperor with disapproval.
Your Majesty, this is a bit too much, it's just clothes!
[However, the old emperor still had a bit of conscience, and embroidered auspicious patterns such as dragons, phoenixes, and auspicious clouds on those coarse linen clothes according to the requirements of the previous emperor.]
Everyone: ...
Xiuniang is from the palace and doesn’t cost much money!
[The late emperor also required that there must be a large number of rare cultural relics among the burial objects, to show that although he was born in a peasant family, he was actually very cultured. In this way, if his tomb was robbed one day, people could still analyze that he was a cultured emperor through the burial objects.]
[But all these ancient books, calligraphy and paintings, and porcelain were replaced by fakes by the old emperor.]
