Hearing this, Yao Yao immediately sat upright, his eyes bright. This was a secret that was usually not heard. You couldn't miss it when you passed by.
Han Changmu stood at the entrance of Han Mansion, watching the carriage drive into the dazzling afterglow of the setting sun and gradually go away.
"Your Majesty, Li Sheng is awake." Jin Yu quietly walked behind Han Changmu and whispered.
Han Changmu was startled and said calmly: "Go and have a look."
As soon as the first dusk drum sounded, people began to rush to the square in a hurry.
Sun Ying and a group of internal guards drove a cart with a brand-new coffin covered with dark oilcloth and hurried in from Mingde Gate.
Sun Ying's face was really ugly. In the dusk, it was as gloomy as if a heavy rain was brewing.
When he just dug out Princess Rong's coffin, he didn't feel anything was wrong, but when he raised his hand, he felt something strange.
He walked and thought about this, and finally figured out where this anomaly came from.
Princess Rong's coffin is too light, much lighter than ordinary coffins, it's incredibly light, so light that it's incomprehensible!
If the nails on the coffin had not been removed, Sun Ying would have thought that what he dug out was an empty coffin.
But Princess Rong's body was sealed in the coffin by his own hands and buried with his own eyes. It had only been twenty days, so how could it become so light?
He was puzzled and became more and more anxious. He urged several times: "Hurry, go back to the Department of Internal Health!"
The inner guard driving the carriage didn't know what was going on: "What's wrong, Sun Wuzuo, what happened?"
Sun Ying's face showed a hint of panic: "There's something wrong with this coffin, hurry up, go back!"
"Something's wrong, what's wrong?" The inner guard who was driving the car was startled and turned his head to take a look: "Isn't this good? It's not a fake corpse."
Sun Ying's face turned pale: "If it is really what I guessed, it would be much scarier than pretending to be a corpse!"
"Sun Wuzuo, don't scare me, I'm a coward!" A guard next to him was so frightened that he subconsciously moved away from the coffin.
In fact, Sun Ying was just guessing. He couldn't tell what was wrong. It was just that his perception of danger was more acute than others. He couldn't give much explanation. He just kept urging: "Go quickly, hurry up." Return to the Department of Internal Health."
When the inner guards saw that Sun Ying's face turned pale, their hearts trembled. They did not dare to ask any more questions, stopped talking, and hurriedly headed their way.
As soon as she entered the Department of Internal Health, Sun Ying sent the coffin straight into the inspection room and closed the door with a bang without even saying hello.
The inner guards who had been busy all the way looked at each other in confusion. No one said anything on the surface, but everyone's expressions were not so pretty, and they were obviously scolding each other secretly in their hearts.
After a moment of silence, one of the inner guards shouted: "Let's go to the dining hall to have some evening food."
Everyone else just laughed and turned around to leave.
One of the internal guards turned around and took a step slower. He was surprised when he saw a burst of scarlet smoke suddenly rising over the house inspection: "Hey, why is there smoke in the house inspection?"
The first few guards didn't even turn their heads and kept walking forward: "Smoke, it's none of my business even if it catches fire!"
The inner guards took a few steps forward, but they still felt uneasy. Sun Ying was usually such a lively and smooth person, how could he suddenly change his gender?
"It's broken!" One of the guards' expression changed. He turned around and ran to the door of the small courtyard. He kicked open the door, rushed to the door of the inspection room in three steps and two steps at a time, banged the door vigorously and shouted: "Sun Wu Zuo , Sun Wuzuo, are you okay? Open the door, Sun Wuzuo! Open the door!"
However, after smashing the door for a long time, the sound could be heard by half of the Internal Security Department, but there was no movement inside the door.
In such a situation, the other internal guards naturally guessed that something was going on. They dispersed in an orderly manner with a roar, shouting, knocking on the door, and turning back to the room to get the knocking tools.
At this time, the benefits of wooden doors come to light. If the door of the house inspection is the same as the door of the courtyard, both are wooden doors, then there is no need for several internal guards to come up together. It is enough for only one internal guard to fly up, but The door used for home inspection is not a wooden door!
The door of the inspection house is a stone door. To be precise, the entire exposed part of the inspection house is made of bricks and stones. An ice cellar with a depth of two feet was dug directly under the inspection house, and large blocks of ice were stored over the years. It can keep the corpse from rotting and keep the whole courtyard extremely cold all year round.
Such an indestructible stone door, once locked from the inside, smashing or kicking it will be useless.
The endless dust spread all over the sky, and the fascinated people couldn't open their eyes.
The inner guards smashed the stone door with loud bangs, but the door remained motionless.
There was still no movement in the room. Even though the guards shouted hoarsely outside, Sun Ying seemed to have died and did not make a sound.
The guards immediately felt that something was not good. They watched anxiously as the evil red smoke that enveloped the inspection room dispersed in the wind. They felt that something unexpected and big was about to happen. Judging from this situation, it didn't look like a good thing.
The rapid banging on the door gradually slowed down and the sound became deeper, making the examination room even more eerie and deathly silent.
This kind of silence actually lasted only a short moment, but the unknown waiting is always long. These inner guards were almost driven crazy by this dead silence.
It wasn't until the door-smashing movement stopped and the surroundings finally became quiet that a coughing whisper came from the room inspection: "Stop smashing it. I wasn't scared to death. I was crushed to death by your smashed door first."
Although Sun Ying's voice was a little weak, word by word broken, it was not painful, and the guards immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as people are still alive!
"It's okay, let's go."
"Fortunately, it's okay. I was scared to death. Xiao Sun, please come out quickly. Let's leave first."
The inner guards talked as they walked, walking out in twos and threes.
Just a few steps out, the closed stone door suddenly creaked with a muffled sound, and a narrow gap slowly opened, and a stream of scarlet smoke squeezed out from the depth of the gap.
This crimson smoke was like a spiritual living thing, floating in all directions with the warm breeze, moving towards people, and silently getting stuck on the top of the bun.
There were a few more dull sounds of opening the door, the stone door opened wide, and Sun Ying walked out with a disgraced face.
He leaned against the door and kept coughing violently, making his throat hoarse and unpleasant, until his whole body almost hit the ground.
Hearing Sun Ying's cough that almost broke his lungs, the guards suddenly stopped and turned around to look at him.
Sun Ying described himself as embarrassed, with the sun shining down and covering him, and the dust on his head, face, and body shining with an evil red light.
An internal guard who was always on good terms with Sun Ying turned around to support him and looked him over. "What's that on your head?" Sun Ying patted her bun blankly, and a lot of scarlet powder came out of her bun. It fell suddenly, and his hands were stained with sporadic scarlet powder. He rubbed his hands and said, "I don't know what these are. As soon as I opened the coffin, these things spurted out and splashed all over me. "
He raised his head and glanced at the inner guard, and said in surprise: "Hey, how come you have it on your body too?"
The inner guard raised his hand and touched his head, then looked at his red palm and said, "Oh, it's true. What kind of thing is this? It floats far enough."
Several internal guards standing in the distance heard the sound and hurriedly came over. They looked at each other carefully and said in shock: "Hey, why do we also have it on us? It was sprayed out from the coffin. Isn't that a fake corpse?" "
"It's a fake corpse!" A guard exclaimed, no longer feeling scared, and rushed to squeeze into the inspection room. Before he could clearly see the situation in the inspection room, he was smoked out by the thick scarlet smoke.
"Ahem, cough, cough, I'm choking to death. What does this smell like?"
"The smoke is too heavy and I can't see anything clearly inside."
"Is it a fake corpse?"
"Didn't see it!"
The guards coughed and fled from the inspection room. The red smoke on their heads and bodies seemed to be darker than before.
Sun Ying noticed something was wrong and took a closer look. The deep and strange evil red color faded in an instant. He thought it was because he was dazzled and did not look into it further. He coughed a few times and said, "Thank you, brothers." Help me collect the powder on your body and hair, and after the smell has dispersed in the inspection room, I will go in and examine what these are."
Several internal guards also wanted to know what the red powder was as soon as possible, so they hurriedly got the scarlet powder off and wrapped it in a handkerchief.
Sun Ying rested for a moment and saw that very little of the smoke in the inspection room had dissipated, so she entered the inspection room with a handkerchief.
As an inner guard, you look at me and I look at you. Although they didn't speak, they both had a tacit understanding and didn't leave.
They wanted to know what the scarlet powder was as soon as possible, but they didn't dare to squeeze into the inspection room without permission and disturb Sun Ying, so they had to squeeze in twos and threes at the door of the inspection room, craning their necks to look inside.
The surroundings became quiet for a moment. Sun Ying checked for a while and suddenly felt something was wrong. She raised her head and looked towards the door. She was startled at this sight.
There were five or six heads crowded together at the door, half of them shrouded in the dim light of the sky, and half of them peering into the dimly lit lights. Joy and terror were inexplicably intertwined.
He laughed dumbly: "Oh, it turns out that brothers like to watch autopsies, so I'll just carry the body to the yard and let them have a good time watching it."
The onlookers' inner guards immediately took a few steps back, wanting to take a look but not daring to take a closer look.
"Have you finished all your errands? How can you enjoy watching autopsies? Why don't you just count them all? Those who are here today don't leave. They can all change their careers and work as widowers!" Suddenly there was a loud shout from behind everyone, The guards staggered around in fright. When they saw the person coming, their expressions suddenly changed and they gasped.
Han Changmu and He Zhenfu stood one behind the other in the bright afterglow, one with an expressionless face, while the other was furious.
It’s unclear what the expressionless one was thinking, but the furious one was actually laughing secretly.
The onlookers all lamented that it was over now. If they were caught cheating and cheating, they would not be able to make a difference in the performance appraisal at the end of the year. They would not be able to get a double salary at the end of the year.
