The Liu Mansion covers a large area. Although it has been defeated, the former glory can still be seen in many places.
For example, the rockery and waterfall in front of you cannot be found anywhere in the capital.
The ancestors of the Liu family received a reward from the previous dynasty, and the emperor of the previous dynasty ordered the royal craftsmen from the palace to come to the Liu Mansion to build it.
Wei Qingyan understood better why Liu Huan wanted to go back to the past. The glory days of the Liu family were in the previous dynasty. Therefore, it made perfect sense for him to get close to the remnants of the previous dynasty.
Now, this scene is convenient for Wei Qingyan and Shi Yu to hide.
The two stood behind the rockery, holding back their breath, and looked at the group of people walking past them through the gaps in the rockery.
The leader is the current emperor!
After walking not far, the emperor stood still. Feng Ruobao looked at the secret guard behind him and ordered, "Look through every place carefully."
The secret guards received the order and dispersed, leaving only four people left to protect the emperor.
Seeing that the emperor had no intention of leaving, Feng Ruobao winked at one of the secret guards, who quickly brought a chair and placed it in front of the emperor.
Feng Ruobao helped the emperor sit down.
After a long time, two secret guards came out and shook their heads at him, and soon two more came out and also shook their heads.
Feng Ruobao glanced at the emperor, saw him frowning slightly, and said to the secret guards, "Look more carefully."
After the secret guard left, he asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, are these remnants of the previous dynasty really hiding in the Liu Mansion?"
His voice was not loud, but both Wei Qingyan and Shi Yu had strong internal strength and excellent ears.
The two looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
The emperor actually suspected that Liu's house was hiding remnants of the previous dynasty.
Does that mean that their previous guesses were correct?
The emperor's voice came from afar, "When the late emperor established the Wei Dynasty, the national treasury was not rich, and the property awarded to the emperor's family members appeared to be large, but in fact many families who were close to the late emperor had IOUs.
Prince Yu's Mansion was one of them. It was a matter of honor for the late emperor. This matter was not recorded in the accounts, and the clan members who were issued IOUs did not dare to talk about it to the outside world. Very few people knew about it.
King Yu was born in a farmer's family, but later became addicted to Taoism and advocated simplicity. He had little experience in money and luxury, and he had never seen the underground palace of Liujiazhuangzi.
I don't know how luxurious it is, even if it takes the entire family property of Prince Yu's Mansion, it can't be built. Wang Gangzheng and others don't know the wealth of Prince Yu's Mansion. "
And since the Liu family was defeated, it was even less likely that they would have the money to build such an underground palace.
The previous royal family loved luxury, and the underground palace was indeed in line with their style.
But based on this, it can be concluded that it was built by the remnants of the previous dynasty. Feng Ruobao was confused, but he did not dare to ask more questions.
Fortunately, the emperor must have been bored with waiting, so he continued, "If Wang Chun hadn't committed suicide, I wouldn't have thought of this place.
She was the old man next to my mother. It was normal for me to ask her for questions, but she committed suicide.
If she didn't have a guilty conscience, why would she die?
But what is she guilty of? Is she guilty of hiding the fact that her mother, Li Shuyi, is still alive, but Li Shuyi was captured by Princess Yu?
Or does she feel guilty that something happened to the prince this time and she stopped the queen mother from saving the prince?
The prince is not smart enough, but he is not brave either. The only thing he has accomplished recently is Zhuangzi who destroyed Princess Yu, and then Xu Zhan betrayed him.
In this way, it is not difficult to see that Wang Chun, Xu Zhanshi, and Princess Yu are in the same group. Wang Chun was the queen's mother's maid when she was a girl. As for the queen's identity at that time, others would not push anyone around her, except for that. people. "
It was about the Queen Mother. Although Feng Ruobao knew something about it, he didn't dare to listen more. He knelt down and changed the subject and said, "Your Majesty is wise, but since Your Majesty guessed that Princess Yu was working for the remnants of the previous dynasty, why didn't you continue the trial?"
Instead, he was sentenced to three days in prison.
The emperor turned his gaze to Liupu, "Those who are still loyal to the remnants of the previous dynasty have been trained since birth, and servility and loyalty have penetrated into their bones and blood.
Xu Zhanshi was able to expose his identity regardless of the lives of his whole family. Wang Chun committed suicide in advance when he was still unsure why I was looking for her.
How could Princess Yu and Liu Huan reveal that instead of doing this, it would be better to kill me so that they would mistakenly think that I don't know anything and relax their vigilance.
I have been searching for them for so many years, but to no avail. How many more years do I have left to spend with them? I cannot leave this mess to the next emperor. "
"Your Majesty's dragon body is in good health and he will live long." Feng Ruobao flattered.
The emperor laughed at himself. He had been in coma for no reason for several times, and the imperial doctor could not even find out the cause. If one day he never wakes up from coma, who knows what trouble these cancers will cause.
He glanced at Liupu again, "Time is running out, and if the cancer is not removed, the Wei Dynasty will never be at peace."
Feng Ruobao didn't dare to answer the phone anymore.
However, the emperor spoke again, "After the rest of the Liu family are exiled, you will order them all to be killed to avoid future troubles.
The Liu family were the lackeys of the previous dynasty, and their ideas were deeply ingrained. In order to show his benevolence, the late emperor kept the old ministers of the previous dynasty, which also left many hidden dangers. I don't want to repeat the same mistake. "
"yes."
Feng Ruobao responded in a low voice.
The emperor said nothing. After a long time, a secret guard came over and said, "Master, we found a secret passage that leads directly to the outside of the city."
After he finished speaking, another secret guard came over, "Master, there are two courtyards in the west. They look barren from the outside, but they are open inside. The decoration is as luxurious as that of the underground palace."
"I'm really hiding in Liu's house." The emperor motioned to the secret guard to lead the way to the west courtyard where the secret guard said he was. Seeing this, Feng Ruobao hurriedly got up and followed him.
After the group of people left completely, Wei Qingyan and Shi Yu slowly came out from behind the rockery.
Neither of them was in a hurry to follow. The secret guards around the emperor were not idle. If the sound of running water hadn't been concealed by the sound of running water, they might not have been discovered.
Unable to follow him, Shi Yu simply found a flat place in the rockery to sit down, held Wei Qingyan on his lap, and whispered, "Have a rest."
Wei Qingyan was thinking about something in his mind and let him hold him, "If the emperor doesn't investigate the matter in Huangshaling, will it still be related to the remnants of the previous dynasty?"
According to the emperor, he had long known that there were remnants of the previous dynasty in the capital and had been looking for them.
How did the emperor know?
Shi Yu understood what she was thinking, "I discovered Su Fu's identity when I killed him after fighting at the border of Beiling, and then submitted the document to the emperor.
But at that time, all those people were killed by me, and no fish slipped through the net. The emperor knew that he might have discovered something in the capital.
If according to our previous speculation, the Queen Mother was taken advantage of by the remnants of the previous dynasty, perhaps the Queen Mother told him. "
This possibility cannot be ruled out.
Just listening to the emperor's words, it seems that the identity of the Queen Mother is also in question.
But after all, this was not the place to talk. The two of them were speechless after that. Half an hour later, they saw that the emperor and his party had not come out yet. They guessed that maybe they had gone out along the secret passage, and then they came out of the rockery again.
First, I went to the west courtyard to take a look. It was indeed luxurious enough, but it was a little messy inside. It should have been caused by the remnants of the previous dynasty taking away valuable things when they escaped.
The two of them reached the secret passage again. When they saw that there was no one guarding the secret passage, they knew that they had all entered the secret passage and would not go back again, so they followed them in.
However, the two of them did not expect that this secret passage would be so long, that it would actually lead to the vicinity of the graveyard of the Protector General.
Unexpectedly, the emperor would worship at the grave of the general who protected the country.
