Chapter 1841 Scare
Man Bao asked mysteriously, "Then do you know the General of the Fa Qiu Army and the Lieutenant of the Mo Jin Army in Cao Cao's army?"
Chang Yu couldn't help but lower his voice because of her exaggeration and asked quietly, "Is this an official position? This is the first time I've heard of it."
Manbao nodded and whispered, "Do you know what they do?"
Changyu shook his head blankly, and Mingda looked over curiously.
"They specialize in digging up graves and stealing burial objects." Man Bao said, "In troubled times, even the military does this, not to mention the thieves in the underworld. It's a relief that you don't have any burial objects, but with so many, you'll definitely be the first target."
Chang Yu was horrified and couldn't help shouting, "I'll see who dares. I, I, I will definitely have someone to guard the tomb."
Manbao asked, "How many tombs of the former royal families still have tomb keepers?"
Chang Yu was startled. Mingda said, "It seems that only two tombs are still guarded."
Manbao nodded. "They are still people sent by the imperial court. If one day the imperial court doesn't want to send anyone anymore, there won't even be anyone guarding the tomb."
Chang Yu said blankly: "My Great Jin will surely last for thousands of years..."
Even Bai Shan couldn't help but say, "This is a beautiful wish. We can work hard for it, but wanting it to become a reality is harder than climbing to the sky."
Manbao nodded. In the future, people will be able to ascend to heaven, but there will still not be a dynasty that can last for thousands of years. Isn’t that harder than ascending to heaven?
Bai Erlang said, "There's no point in discussing such impractical things. You might as well think of something achievable. For example, the three of us have already figured out that when we die, we'll just take a few of our own handbooks with us to our graves."
Manbao and Baishan nodded repeatedly and said, "Most grave diggers go for gold, silver, jewelry, and porcelain. We can take something we wrote ourselves. It doesn't cost money, doesn't take up space, and can really be taken to the underworld as a souvenir."
I also want to bring my own daily necessities, various favorite ornaments, jewelry, and clothes. Changyu: ...
She swallowed, still unable to accept their assumption, and whispered, "I don't think I would..."
Manbao felt a little regretful because she obviously couldn't show them the book of strange stories she read in the encyclopedia.
She was young at that time, and Bai Erlang and Bai Shan liked to read strange stories very much. They would buy almost every new strange story novel that was added to the Luojiang County bookstore.
Manbao read several books by herself, but unfortunately there were few new books in Luojiang County, and sometimes a new book might not be added for half a year, so she looked for them in the encyclopedia.
At that time, Koko recommended her a book of strange stories that was more in line with their world. It specifically recorded the strange encounters of tomb robbers in the martial arts world - it was very scary.
The three of them were quite fascinated when watching it. After they finished watching it, they discussed that they didn't want their graves to be dug up in the future, so they decided not to leave any valuables after their death.
By the way, where is that book?
Manbao recalled carefully and looked at Bai Erlang.
Bai Erlang immediately lowered his head. Bai Shan also looked at Bai Erlang without saying anything.
Yin Huo saw this and, upon leaving the East Palace and returning to Chongwen Hall, he couldn't help but avoid Liu Huan and ask the three of them, "Have you encountered any tomb robbers?"
The three of them shook their heads together, "We haven't encountered it yet, how can our experience be that great?"
Yin Huo looked at them suspiciously, "Then why are you suing for this?"
The three of them fell silent.
Yin Huo then said quietly, "I see. You must have something related to tomb robbing. Is it very confidential? Can't you tell me?"
Bai Erlang had a lot to say, but he didn't dare, so he went to see Bai Shan and Zhou Man quietly.
Bai Shan and Zhou Man hesitated for a moment, looked at each other, and nodded slightly. Bai Erlang then grabbed Yin Huo and said, "Let me tell you, there's a lot of knowledge in tomb robbing. There's a lot of stories in the strange records we read about two sects that specialize in tomb robbing and have a grudge against each other..."
Bai Erlang enthusiastically recounted the story, still feeling a little unsatisfied, mainly about their love, hate and vengeance.
Yin Huo, however, was very interested in the ghosts they encountered after entering the tomb and asked, "Where did you get such a book?"
It had been so long that Bai Erlang almost forgot about it. He scratched his head and said, "Such a strange book must have been bought by Manbao."
Bai Shan said, "We bought it in Luojiang County. There are many old books not only in bookstores, but also outside. Sometimes you can come across some very strange and interesting books."
They really liked exchanging books in the bookstores in Luojiang County. Bai Erlang didn't think there was anything wrong with it and nodded.
Yin Huo asked, "Can you lend it to me?"
Manbao and Baishan turned to look at Bai Erlang and asked, "Is the book with you?"
Manbao said, "I just remembered that I did lose several books. Were they all taken by you?"
Bai Erlang protested, "I only took two books. The rest were not mine. Don't forget, the master also confiscated several books."
Then he said unconvincedly: "I also have a lot of things with you. That picture, isn't it you who collected it? I saw it in your room last time. Also, why do you only talk about Bai Shan and not me?"
Bai Erlang said, "He has hidden the most of your books."
Bai Shan: "...Nonsense, I was borrowing, not hiding."
"Then you should return it."
The three of them grew up together and had taken each other's books and things, and these things were impossible to explain.
Seeing that the three of them were about to start arguing, Yin Huo quickly stopped them and changed the subject, "Where is the book?"
"Of course it's at home. How could such a book be brought into the palace?"
Yes, it is a bit outrageous to even mention such things, let alone reading books.
However, Yin Huo was still very interested. "After the holiday, I'll go home with you to get it."
The three of them nodded in agreement, and warned: "Don't tell anyone after you see it."
Manbao said, "Many of my books have been discovered by the teacher, but this is the only one I dare not let him see. Every time we read it, we read it quietly outside and dare not bring it into the classroom."
Yin Huo nodded, "Don't worry, I will be very careful."
The book can be kept secret, but what they said in the pavilion of the East Palace was not a secret. Not only did the prince know what they said from beginning to end, but the emperor also knew it.
He just snorted at the fact that Zhou Man and the others had finally scared his two precious daughters, and then thought to himself: He will surely make the Great Jin Dynasty last for thousands of years.
Recalling their earlier discussion, the emperor knocked on the table and asked Wei Zhi, who was still with him handling official business, "Since someone in Zhou Man's family is engaged in business, why don't they change their household registration?"
Wei Zhi had spent more time in the palace since taking over Ji Xiang's job. After a moment's thought, he said, "Most of her family still relies on farming, and her family hasn't split up, so her citizenship is still determined based on Zhou Jin's status."
Zhou Jin, the head of the household, basically has his income from the land, so he is naturally still a good citizen.
