Chapter 53 He would be a fool to think she would repent
Xiangying walked over and bent down to take a look.
It turned out that there was a line of small words engraved on the end of the coffin.
The characters used were not those used exclusively by the royal family of Dai, but Xiangying could understand them.
The words were carved by two wizards, Cai and Wang. They said that King Anping, who was predicted to be dead, would have another disaster a hundred years after his death.
It is very likely that the body was destroyed and there is no place to bury it.
So they left behind a rich treasure. If tomb robbers came in the future, they hoped that they would only take the treasures and not destroy the body of King Anping.
Xiangying and Jiechen looked at each other.
"Where is the treasure? Was it taken away?" She looked around but couldn't find a clue.
Xie Chen calmly judged: "These tomb robbers must have seen the rich treasures as soon as they came in, so they killed each other because of the uneven distribution of wealth."
After he said that, he looked around and suddenly strode towards the coffin.
All he saw was Jie Chen using his hands to push back the lid of Prince Anping's coffin.
A heavy, dull voice rang out in the empty tomb.
Immediately afterwards, there were a few clattering sounds from a mechanism, and a secret door on the wall of the tomb beside Xiangying slowly rose up.
Xiangying was surprised: "The mechanism is actually on the coffin of Prince Anping."
The strategies used by the two wizards Cai and Wang were really clever.
If these tomb robbers took the burial objects in the secret room and left, nothing would happen.
But they were so greedy that they wanted to see what was in Prince Anping's coffin.
It was agreed that they would take away the things without damaging the body, so they were poisoned by the two wizards who hid the poison in the coffin.
No one was spared.
Xiangying couldn't help but want to laugh.
This is really the series where the coffin lid of Prince Anping can't hold it down.
Behind the secret door was a staircase leading downwards, with mermaid lamps also burning on both walls.
Xie Chen was about to go down but was stopped by Xiangying.
"If this door is accidentally closed, we will be trapped down there and won't be able to get out."
Xie Chen raised his eyebrows: "What do you want?"
Xiangying went to the skeletons of the tomb robbers and picked up the ropes they used to secure them.
She tied one end around her waist and handed the other end to Li Chen.
"Wait for me up there, I'll go down and take a look."
Jie Chen said nothing, just stared at her.
Xiangying blinked her eyes: "Why, you still don't trust me? Even if there is a pile of treasures down there, I can't take it all by myself."
"I don't care about the treasure," Xie Chen said in a cold voice, "but you'd better stop running around."
Xiangying nodded obediently and pretended to be calm: "Don't worry, I'll go take a look and come up, you wait here."
After saying that, she went down the stairs.
When they reached the bottom, Xiangying looked back, but the stairs were too long and he could no longer see Jie Chen.
She felt a little relieved.
The reason why she didn't let Jie Chen go with her was that if he accompanied her, how would she collect all the treasures into the space?
Push open the only secret door in front of you.
Xiangying came to the world of gold.
She was nearly blinded!
The filled cabinets were filled with gold bars, gold cakes, and gorgeous jade utensils.
This shows how extravagant King Anping was during his lifetime!
Not only that, even the golden nanmu trees were piled up in the corners of the wall as if they were free.
Xiangying waved his hand and took them all away!
The darkroom is spacious and large, like a small playground.
"Mr. Lin really has a unique vision. It is a big tomb, indeed!" She sighed as she collected them.
In the box in the corner, there are bronze artifacts, lacquerware with nuts, bronze horses and other items.
Xiangying put all of them into the space and watched the inventory count in the space continue to rise.
Finally, her supplies to the seventh floor were unlocked, becoming: 45000/80000
Xiangying clasped his hands together and said, "Thank you, Prince Anping, for the reward. I will definitely spend the money where it should be used."
Xie Chen waited for two incense sticks before Xiangying came back.
Her fair and beautiful face was a little rosy, and her phoenix eyes were sparkling.
Jie Chen raised his eyebrows in confusion: "What did you find out?" She was so excited.
Xiangying pretended to shake his head and sighed: "There is nothing left, just some empty shells."
"Maybe it was moved away before, or it might be the work of two wizards. However, I found this."
She took out a dragon and phoenix pendant from her sleeve.
This was just discovered below. Because of its unique shape, which is two pieces of jade combined into one, it attracted Xiangying's attention.
It would not be good for her to give Jie Chen nothing, after all, it was thanks to him that the secret room was discovered.
"The dragon and phoenix pendants symbolize beautiful feelings. Jie Chen, I didn't leave a good impression on you before. It was my fault. At that time, I didn't know how to get along with you, and I didn't know how to express my love for you."
Xiangying solemnly placed the dragon and phoenix pendant in his palm. She raised her phoenix eyes and looked at him seriously in the dim light of the fire.
For a moment, Jie Chen felt a little touched.
He did not refuse, but looked at her quietly, waiting for what came next.
"So you take the dragon and phoenix pendant, and when you return to South Vietnam, find a woman who loves you and give her this jade. It will be my blessing to you both."
"Remember to find someone with a good personality, otherwise they will abuse our children."
As soon as Xiangying finished speaking, Jie Chen's expression changed and he pushed her hand away.
"You are seriously ill." He was a fool to believe that this woman really knew how to repent.
Xie Chen turned around and went back the way he came.
Xiangying didn't know why he was angry again.
A man’s heart is as unfathomable as the sea.
"Jie Chen, you went the wrong way. I just found the exit in the dark room."
So Xie Chen turned around again, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.
Xiangying fixed the tomb door with special fire clay to prevent future generations from disturbing King Anping's peace.
Afterwards, the two of them climbed out of the tomb through the cave door of the dark room and stood in an open mountain field.
At this moment, the sky was bright and the hot sunlight shining overhead dispelled the dead air in the tomb.
Xiangying put his hands over his eyes and looked into the distance.
The mountains and rivers are magnificent, and in her eyes there are beautiful scenery everywhere.
"Where are we going now?"
Xie Chen refused to say a word to Xiangying. He turned around and strode away. Xiangying hurriedly followed him.
She temporarily took the dragon and phoenix pendant back into the space.
If he doesn't want it, then she can't throw it away. After all, it's money.
It was a coincidence that not long after they came out of the tomb and walked west along the hillside, they ran into Scarface who was looking for them!
When Scarface saw Xiangying and Jiechen, joy suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"Princess, Military Inspector, you are here!" he shouted behind him.
Soon, many soldiers came over.
Xie Chen's mood returned to normal and he asked about the situation of the exile team.
Scarface kept looking at Xiangying behind him and replied, "The other two supervisors are resting their troops here and waiting for you to come back."
Before Xiangying asked, Scarface turned around and told her warmly in a rough voice:
"The three children were fine. Someone was playing with them and they didn't cry."
Xiangying smiled and said, "That's good."
Seeing her smile, Scarface quickly withdrew his gaze and coughed a few times unnaturally.
Instead, Xie Chen in front turned back coldly: "She is not the eldest princess anymore, be careful how you address her."
Scarface was stunned for a moment, and lowered his voice: "It's... the criminal Xiangying."
That’s not right. Why does he feel like they had a fight when they went out?
