Their Lucky Star Was Transmigrated! Chapter 390: Holy Maiden: I set a fire in the imperial mausoleum
The Duke of Changle Xu Yan and the Duke of Yong'an Xu Bang brought their own personal guards back to the capital with 120,000 joy and joy to return to Emperor Yongping.
As for the soldiers and horses brought by the two, they were ordered to temporarily guard outside the imperial mausoleum. When the four soldiers and horses of the imperial tomb camp stationed in the imperial tomb returned, these people could return to their original camp guards.
"Brother, don't you think this is too strange?"
The Duke of Yong'an Xu Bang looked at Xu Yan, the Duke of Changle who was riding beside him, and asked in a low voice.
On their way to the imperial mausoleum, someone created a lot of obstacles, and even a large number of thieves armed with powerful bows and crossbows sniped at them.
But in the end, the emperor's mausoleum was safe and sound, which is obviously a problem.
"Then what do you mean?"
The Duke of Changle looked at his cousin with a slightly unhappy expression.
The emperor's mausoleum is abnormal, can't he see it?
The question is, how can it be seen?
Something goes wrong, and in the end someone is to blame. Who will this person be? Besides the people from their Xu residence, can there be anyone else?
If they catch the person doing it, there's more to say about it. But now, there is no problem on the surface of the imperial mausoleum. Everything is too calm, why should they make extra efforts?
Is it true that you really want to find someone to come out and take the bag?
You must know that anyone who dares to do such a thing will die, and even the eight generations of their ancestors do not take it to heart. The law of the Tang Dynasty is even more disrespectful.
Such a person, in today's Tang Dynasty, apart from the remnants of the previous dynasty, is the Dao of Jie Luck. The remnants of the previous dynasty have basically finished playing, and even the last of the Du family's blood has married their little cousin who was expelled from the Xu residence as his wife.
Then the truth is self-evident.
Aiming at the Tomb of the Tang Dynasty, it is the Dao of Jie Fortune.
The Dao of Jie Luck has been shouting that everyone will get it and kill it since the time of Emperor Taizu.
But now, Jie Luck Dao is still alive and well.
How many nobles, civil servants and military generals in the DPRK secretly have one way or another connection with Jie Yun Dao. After all, the road of robbery, looting, transshipment, any means, are of great help to them.
"Brother, what I want to say is that our ancestors are also buried in the imperial mausoleum!"
"Even if this was done by Jie Yundao, we can't just ignore it!"
"This is not simply digging the ancestral graves of their Li family, but also digging the ancestral graves of our Xu family."
Xu Bang looked at his brother in the lobby, "This time, Jie Yundao has gone too far. They must be taught a lesson, otherwise, they will only make more progress."
"Okay, then you go to the book!"
"Just, do you have any evidence?"
Xu Yan didn't want to pay any attention to this cousin.
The Dao of Jie Fortune has existed for so many years, which is enough to explain many things.
Even if the incident is really the work of Jie Yundao, but there is no evidence, then some of the spokespersons of Jie Yundao in the court are afraid that they will directly put a hat of inability to excuse them.
By then, I am afraid that even Emperor Yongping will have doubts about their brother's abilities.
Not long ago, their nephew, Duke Antai Xu Huairen, went wrong in Beiman, and now there is no conclusion on this matter!
"Brother, you mean, let's not talk about anything!"
Xu Bang looked at his brother in the lobby and probably understood what he was thinking.
Xu Yan sighed and said: "Second brother, the key to this matter is that we have not found any evidence, and we have no evidence. To fight our subjective speculation is actually just a waste of words!"
There is no abnormality in the imperial mausoleum. Those who sniped them on the road are unknown. They have no survivors, and they are nothing.
In this situation, they are literally helpless.
The truth you guessed, whether it is the truth or not, doesn't matter if you say it.
"Our Xu mansion is indeed very beautiful now, but after the accident of Huairen's nephew, our Xu mansion is now standing on the cusp of the storm!"
"Brother, I think you are too timid!"
Xu Bang snorted, "We have three princes in the Xu family, and our ancestor is the only king of the Tang Dynasty with a different surname. Although our ancestor is gone, the name of King Taiping is unknown to everyone. ."
"Let's do nothing now, just smear the face of our ancestors!"
Xu Bang is really direct enough, even if he is facing his lobby brother, he is still outspoken.
"As long as we don't rebel against the Xu family, even today's saints can't do anything to us!"
"What's more, my aunt is still here!"
The aunt in Xu Pang's mouth is the old lady of the Xu residence.
With Mrs. Xu as Dinghai Shenzhen in Xu Mansion, Xu Bang was not worried at all about who could frame their Xu Mansion.
"Second brother, why are you so confused?"
Emperor Changle Xu Yan looked at this cousin with hatred, "Auntie is indeed still here, but how many years can Auntie live? When Auntie is gone, how will you and I deal with it?"
"Don't forget, our little cousin was kicked out of the house before, and her daughter-in-law lost her life because of this, and her son has no great prospects because of this. You say, does he hate us?"
"Now, with his aunt in the house, he doesn't dare to do anything, nor can he do anything.
"But if my aunt is gone, what are we going to do?"
"Second brother, think about the long-term in everything!"
Xu Yan felt that he was really too difficult.
He not only has to think about himself, but also about the situation of his cousin Xu Pang, lest this cousin get confused on the spur of the moment and do things that he will regret in the future.
Listening to Xu Yan's words, Xu Pang was speechless for a while.
To be honest, he really never thought about these things before.
Their aunt looks very cheerful now, but she is an elderly person. Although they don't know how long this aunt is now, this aunt was adopted by Emperor Taizu.
These things, if you don't want them, you can't think about them.
"Brother, tell me, how old is our aunt this year?"
"You ask me, who do I ask?"
Xu Yan rolled his eyes, "It must be much older than you and me. You can do the math yourself!"
"I don't know how long my aunt will live!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely live for many more years. Every time the imperial doctor diagnoses the pulse of my aunt, I always pay attention!"
"Brother, you said that my aunt has such a long life, will there be some among them?"
Xu Bang didn't explain, just winked at Xu Yan, the meaning is self-evident.
How can a normal person live such a long and happy life?
Xu Bang didn't think about this before, but now that I think about it, their aunt is probably also related to Jie Luck Dao.
"Be careful!"
Why doesn't Xu Yan have such a guess?
But the problem now is that some things can't be seen without saying anything.
Don't look at them as the princes of the Tang Dynasty, but their status as princes is not very secure. If their aunt wanted to abolish them, it would be a matter of a few words.
After all, as long as the title is passed down in the Xu residence, the sage should not care who is the Duke of Changle or Duke of Yong'an.
Anyway, as long as he didn't violate the ancestral edict of Emperor Taizu, then the rest is not important at all.
The Duke of Changle and Duke Yong'an were chatting in a low voice, and then they slowly went outside the capital.
At this time, Duke Yong An subconsciously looked back at the western mountain where the imperial mausoleum was located.
And it was this look back that made Yong An almost fall off the horse.
"Big, big, big brother!"
"What's wrong?"
The Duke of Changle turned his head to look at Duke Yong'an, and saw Duke Yong'an staring dully in the direction of the Imperial Mausoleum of Xishan.
He looks back sharply.
Looking at this, Duke Changle Xu Yan was also stunned.
But soon, he regained consciousness.
"Second brother, go, go back!"
At this time, they absolutely cannot return to the capital.
The location of the Xishan Emperor's Mausoleum is at this moment thick smoke billowing up into the sky.
The two cousins immediately turned their horses around, and hurriedly rode their horses towards the Xishan Emperor's Mausoleum with the guards beside them.
The official road leading to the imperial mausoleum has been cleared of most of the trees and rocks, and as a result, the brothers can ride directly to the imperial mausoleum.
"What's the matter?"
"Why the fire?"
The Duke of Changle, Xu Yan, rushed to the site of the Imperial Tomb Camp and immediately asked aloud.
However, there was silence in the imperial tomb camp.
When the imperial mausoleum was on fire, all the soldiers left behind were mobilized and rushed up the mountain to put out the fire.
Unfortunately, now it's the season of autumn, when the books begin to fall, the grass begins to turn yellow, and once the fire is ignited, it is very unrealistic to use a little manpower to put out the branches.
This fire can't be contained at all.
"Woe, woe!"
The Duke of Changle sat on the ground as he watched the fire quickly ignite the trees around the emperor's mausoleum.
At the same time, on a hilltop in the West Mountain where the imperial mausoleum is located, Du Qingruo, the saintess of the robbery and fortune, looked at a group of subordinates following her with a strong smile on her face.
She set the fire.
However, it was not her intention to set fire to the western mountain where the imperial mausoleum was located.
The words of Zhao Bingxiao, Zhao Er's master, made Du Qingruo's mentality almost collapse.
Du Qingruo knew very well that if it was really her master and the Daoist of Jie Luck was to get rid of her, then even if she escaped this disaster, she would be in danger a second time.
This time, she was lucky enough to avoid it.
What about next time?
What about next time?
Du Qingruo can't guarantee that he can have such good luck every time.
So, she is going to imitate King Yan and cheat her death once.
She wants to see what her master will do after she dies, and what will Jie Luck Dao do.
"Saint, let's go!"
When Du Qingruo was thinking about what to do next, the subordinate beside him suddenly spoke up.
"Where are you going?"
Du Qingruo looked at a few people around, "I won't hide it from you until now!"
"We should have been betrayed!"
"In Jie Luck Road, someone betrayed us!"
"And before we find this person, if we go back, we will eventually die. So, I'm going to die here, and then hide in the dark to find out the truth!"
"And before that, if you are not afraid of death, you can choose to go back!"
Du Qingruo said it was an understatement, but she had already told the news that she was going to cheat to death. If a few people around her insisted on going back, they would have to go back to her grandmother's house!
"My subordinates are willing to obey the Holy Maiden!"
The wise man immediately made the right choice and pledged his allegiance to the Holy Maiden.
And the hesitant person didn't even have time to speak, and was wiped on the neck by the person next to him.
"Then let's go!"
Du Qingruo looked at the two dead and turned away without expression.
As for the corpses of these two people, they didn't even need her orders, and their subordinates poured out the bone-melting water and turned them clean.
The capital, the Temple of Heaven.
When a thick plume of smoke rose in the direction of the Xishan Emperor's Tomb, a chamberlain reported the news to Emperor Yongping.
Although no one knows what happened to the Xishan Emperor's Mausoleum, but such a huge smoke billows into the sky, it must be something unusual.
"I am ashamed of my ancestors!"
Emperor Yongping walked out of the Temple of Heaven, facing the Xishan Emperor's Mausoleum, and knelt on the ground.
Dingguo Gongfu, the eldest princess was also shouted.
"The Dao of Jie Luck is really not knowing whether to live or die!"
The eldest princess didn't even go to investigate the news, she had already put this matter on the head of Jie Yundao.
"Your Highness, there is another person in the palace!"
"Tell the people who come, just say, the important matter of the country, the Holy Master asked a woman in this palace what to do? Do what she should do, the Holy Master, don't you know how to choose?"
The eldest princess was quite irritated when Emperor Yongping sent people over one after another.
The commander of the female guard, Ri Yao, saw that the eldest princess was angry, and hurriedly went to see the inner servant outside, and conveyed the meaning of the eldest princess to the inner servant in a rather stern tone.
Have the servant ever seen this, he was almost scared to pee, and hurriedly went back to report the news to Emperor Yongping.
Emperor Yongping did not expect that the tomb of Xishan Emperor was burned, and his good aunt did not come to see him.
"Grandpa Lan!"
"The slave is here!"
After hearing Emperor Yongping's call, Eunuch Lan answered indifferently.
"Send my will and invite the old lady of the Xu residence to enter the palace!"
"Yes!"
Eunuch Lan responded immediately and went to find someone to send a letter to the Xu residence.
At the same time, in the Ci Ren Hall of the Xu Mansion, the old lady Xu had already changed into her official uniform, waiting to enter the palace to face the saint.
When the imperial decree came, Mrs. Xu took people directly to the palace.
Almost when Mrs. Xu arrived at the palace gate, messengers from Duke Changle and Duke Yongan arrived.
Someone set fire to Xishan Emperor Mausoleum!
Although this kind of arson will not damage the imperial mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty. However, all the grass and trees on the mountain were burned, which was also a great embarrassment for the Mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty.
This situation is like a person without clothes.
"It's really going to happen!"
Knowing what happened in Xishan, Mrs. Xu also sighed.
"What a mad woman!"
Away from a hilltop of the Imperial Mausoleum of Xishan, Zhao Bingxiao and Zhao Rui master and apprentice also saw the flames and smoke pillars rising from the west mountain. The master and apprentice had this feeling almost at the same time.
"Master, are you sure this mad woman can do it?"
"It doesn't matter if it doesn't work!"
Zhao Bingzheng sighed, "Anyway, it's just a piece of chess that you play at random. You can use it if you can, if you can't use it, just discard it!"
