Seeing the cute and adorable little princess in front of him say such cruel words, Li Shimin felt mixed emotions.
Zhaoling Mausoleum, that is where he will rest in the future. The little princess actually threatened so brazenly that her imperial tomb would be dug up a thousand years later.
Even the burial objects were dug up, so wouldn't the emperor lying in the tomb also be buried?
Being left dead in the wilderness? Thinking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but shudder.
However, looking at the little princess's big eyes full of expectation and innocence, he couldn't get angry with her.
"Sizi, do you know? A mausoleum is a place where the deceased are buried. It should be quiet and solemn."
Li Shimin tried to explain calmly, "Putting the map in the tomb and then letting future generations dig it out, this... this doesn't seem appropriate, right?"
After hearing this, the little princess tilted her head and thought for a moment, "Yeah, yeah, that's right..."
She originally wanted to say that your imperial tomb had been dug out a thousand years later, so what did it have to do with whether it was appropriate or not.
But suddenly I remembered that Xiao Rangjun had warned me not to reveal anything about future generations without his permission.
Then, the little princess suddenly had an idea and changed her words, "Since ancient times, the imperial tombs have been spied on by countless tomb robbers."
“If that’s the case, then why don’t you build the imperial mausoleum into two floors?
On the first layer, we can place some common burial objects to attract the attention of tomb robbers and stop them from moving forward.
At the same time, in this layer, we can also engrave your great achievements and words of praise.
Let future generations naturally revere you and not dare to blaspheme you."
“As for Ye Ye and the real treasures,” the little princess said with cunning and wisdom in her eyes, “we can put them safely on the second floor.
This will not only better ensure their safety, but also prevent malicious tomb robbers from returning empty-handed."
"It creates two layers?" Li Shimin's eyes suddenly lit up and he couldn't help but feel excited.
In the past, even if someone proposed a similar idea, he would have declined it out of concern for the people and the country.
After all, the Tang Dynasty's national strength is limited, and he still has many grand dreams waiting to be realized.
But now... with cement, explosives, and steam engines, isn't it easy to build another floor in Zhaoling?
"This is a brilliant plan!" Li Shimin exclaimed in admiration. "Sizi, how much wisdom is packed into your little head?"
The little princess giggled proudly, "Yeah, this is an idea that Little Nomad and I came up with together.
We believe that this will not only protect the safety of the imperial mausoleum, but also allow future generations to better understand your greatness."
Li Shimin patted the little princess's head lovingly and said, "Okay, since Sizi said so, then I will do as you say and order the construction of Zhaoling Mausoleum into two floors.
As for this map, Yeye, first have someone make a few copies, and then make two copies and place them on the first and second floors of Zhaoling Mausoleum!"
Upon hearing this, the little princess jumped up with joy. "Great! Yay! This way, your greatness can be passed down forever!"
Looking at the little princess cheering and jumping for joy, Li Shimin's heart was also filled with relief.
He knew that although his little daughter was still young, her wisdom and knowledge surpassed many people.
With her by my side, I felt like I had a solid shield and became more confident in facing future challenges.
"Sizi, you are truly Yeye's sweetheart." Li Shimin said with emotion, "With you here, Yeye has no reason to worry about the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty."
After hearing this, the little princess showed a determined look on her face, "Yeah, don't worry, Sizi will definitely study hard.
When I grow up, I will help Yeye govern the Tang Dynasty and make it more prosperous!"
After hearing the little princess's childish and earnest words, Li Shimin couldn't help but feel a surge of heroic spirit in his heart.
He looked at her with eyes full of doting, as if he saw the hope of a more prosperous future for the Tang Dynasty.
"Okay, Sizi is really smart." He smiled gently and reached out to gently pinch the little princess's chubby cheeks.
"Ye Ye is waiting for Si Zi to grow up, and fight alongside Ye Ye to protect our family's Tang Dynasty together."
The little princess nodded vigorously, her bright big eyes flashing with determination and innocence.
She puffed out her chest, as if she couldn't wait to contribute her strength to the Tang Dynasty.
"Don't worry, Yaye, Sizi will definitely study hard." She said in a baby voice, with a confident and lovely smile on her face.
"When Sizi grows up, he will help Yeye govern the Tang Dynasty and make our Tang Dynasty even more beautiful and powerful!"
Next, the little princess chatted with Li Shimin for a few more words and then left happily.
After the little princess left, Li Shimin sat in front of the imperial desk, with memorials piled in front of him, but he had no intention of reviewing them.
The little princess's words kept echoing in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
"Although Sizi is young, his ideas are always unexpected."
Li Shimin murmured to himself, "Her proposal to build Zhaoling into two floors is indeed a good idea.
However, if tomb robbers can really easily enter the first floor, wouldn't they also find ways to enter the second floor?
In this way, the safety of me and my treasures cannot be guaranteed."
Thinking of this, Li Shimin's heart tightened.
He could not allow his tomb to be disturbed in the future, and he could not allow those precious burial objects to fall into the hands of thieves.
He decided to further strengthen the security of Zhaoling.
Li Shimin then stood up and shouted, "Come here! Pass the order down.
"I order the Ministry of Works to immediately revise the design of Zhaoling. I will build Zhaoling into three stories!"
Soon, officials from the Ministry of Works received the imperial edict.
Although they were surprised, they did not dare to delay and immediately began to modify the design plan.
Under Li Shimin's personal supervision, the construction of Zhaoling was soon restarted.
This time, the design of Zhaoling was more exquisite and complex.
As the little princess suggested, the first layer was decorated with some ordinary burial objects to attract the attention of tomb robbers.
At the same time, mechanisms and traps were cleverly set up to prevent tomb robbers from entering easily.
Moreover, on the first floor alone, he designed two main tomb chambers, one real and one fake.
The fake main tomb chamber is still designed according to the previous one, while the real main tomb chamber is engraved with Li Shimin's great achievements and words of praise.
Among them is a picture of the unified Tang Dynasty.
Li Shimin felt that this was the case.
Even if tomb robbers really dug through the first layer, they would still respect him and praise him.
I never thought that there would be two layers under this imperial tomb.
