Chapter 345 Jingdi Mausoleum
At Jinshankou, a retirement home for veteran cadres, today welcoming several black cars. After entering the retirement home, these black cars headed straight to the back mountain.
People in the capital have heard of the tombs of the thirteen emperors of the Ming Dynasty. However, at Jinshankou, there is also a tomb of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty that has been forgotten by everyone: Emperor Jing.
There were 16 emperors in the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang was buried in Nanjing. Zhu Yuanzhang's grandson Emperor Jianwen was seized by Emperor Yongle and his whereabouts were unknown, so there was no tomb. Another one was Emperor Jing: Zhu Qiyu.
Zhu Qiyu was an emperor who had been in power for only eight years. His brother Zhu Qizhen was Emperor Yingzong. During an imperial expedition, he was captured by Timu Fort at the Tumu Fort, which is known in history as the Tumu Fort Incident.
Emperor Yingzong was captured, but the country could not be without a master for a day. In the end, Emperor Yingzong's younger brother Zhu Qiyu was ordered to succeed the throne to Emperor Jing in the face of danger, and he valued himself as Emperor Jing, opposed the migration of the south, turned the tide and fell soon, defended the capital, and also played a great role in post-war construction.
But later, Wata was released back to Yingzong for some reason. When Yingzong came back, he took back the throne and placed Emperor Jing under house arrest. Emperor Jing died of depression at the age of thirty.
After Emperor Jing's death, Emperor Yingzong also abandoned Emperor Jing's title and gave the evil posthumous title "Li". He was buried in Xishan, Beijing according to the prince's ceremony. In fact, the actual tomb specifications did not even reach the prince's level.
Therefore, when people mention the Ming Dynasty’s Thirteen Tombs, they often forget that there is another Jing Emperor’s Tomb. At this time, these black cars were parked under the Jing Emperor’s Tomb.
The doors of these black sedans were opened, and a group of young men and women were taken off in the front two cars, while the third car was two old men and two middle-aged men.
"Old Bao, is this the tomb of Emperor Jing?"
Mo Yongxin took off her black sunglasses, revealing her bright and clear eyes, and asked the old man at the tomb where there was no trace of the emperor's temperament.
"Well, although the Jing Emperor's Tomb is in the prince's specifications, Yingzong actually resented this younger brother who took his position. The rules of the Jing Emperor's Tomb did not reach the prince's level at all."
After Bao Lao Fu explained, he continued, "Miss Mo, according to the information you have obtained from your investigation, this sarcophagus was made by Mr. Chen from the tomb of Emperor Jing, so do you suspect that Hanba took Junior Brother Qin back to the tomb of Emperor Jing?"
"That's right, thirty years ago, Mr. Chen entered all the tombs of the Ming Dynasty and finally took away a sarcophagus from Emperor Jing's tomb. However, for some reason, the tomb managers did not stop it. This sarcophagus was the sarcophagus underground of the Chen family, and the sarcophagus where Hanba lived."
Mo Yongxin's eyes flashed and she said, "The administrator of the Jing Emperor's Mausoleum said that after Mr. Chen entered the Jing Emperor's Mausoleum, he did not ask anyone to accompany him. He only called a few Chen family members in to carry a sarcophagus away when he was an old man. Because of Mr. Chen's identity, the administrator did not dare to ask too much about it. However, where did the sarcophagus of Emperor's Mausoleum be found by Mr. Chen? Those administrators did not know because they had never seen a sarcophagus in the Jing Emperor's Mausoleum."
"Miss Mo means that there is actually a secret passage in this Emperor Jing's tomb, and is this sarcophagus hidden in the secret passage?"
"That's right, this is the result of the research done by several of us, so we asked Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan to come together, just to find the secret passage of Emperor Jing's Mausoleum."
After hearing Mo Yongxin's words, Mr. Bao showed a bitter smile, looked at Mr. Fan, and said, "Old Fan and I don't have much research on the secrets of the mechanism, so let's try it."
This is a specialty in this profession. Although Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan are at the level of fifth-grade masters, they are not as good as those of the masters in the tombs. After all, they have never done underground work.
"Old Bao, so we also asked a gentleman to come and help. Don't mind. It's not that you don't believe in the two elders, but now time is tight, and one more person means more strength."
Meng Yao, who was standing beside her, also spoke, and at the same time, a middle-aged man walked out of a car. He looked not old but his face was very pale, just like he hadn't seen the sunshine for a long time, and he was hunched over. His aging degree was comparable to that of Bao Lao and Fan Lao.
"Old Bao and Mr. Fan are well-known. I am really lucky to see you today."
A middle-aged man turned his eyes smoothly as soon as he got off the car. If he wanted to use one word to describe it, it would be a thief.
"Guo Jianlong, there is something wrong with asking you to come here this time, and you are not asking you to come and have sex with him. You should know that I can fish you out of prison and send you in."
Mo Yongxin saw a hint of displeasure on the faces of Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan. It was not because they found Guo Jianlong, but because Bao Jianlong's familiar attitude annoyed the two elders.
Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan usually have a good attitude towards younger generations. However, Guo Jianlong made them smell a fishy smell from a distance. Both old men are well versed in the art of being a friend. What Guo Jianlong does is to see at a glance that this is an authentic native master who specializes in digging graves. Such a person called them two of them as seniors. Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan slapped him over without a single head to give Mo Yongxin face.
Their Feng Shui Masters help people design tombs and look at the Feng Shui of the yin houses, while these native masters destroy the tombs. The two can be said to be opposites, and it is better not to leave without a walk.
Guo Jianlong also saw the displeasure between Mr. Fan and Mr. Bao, and immediately withdrew his hand, he was not embarrassed. He smiled flatteringly and said to Mo Yongxin: "Miss Mo, if I had known that Mr. Fan and Mr. Bao, I would not have come. With these two, I would not have used to show my ugly appearance."
"It's okay if you don't want to, I'll send you back to prison now." Mo Yongxin said coldly without taking Guo Jianlong's trick.
"No, although Mr. Fan and Mr. Bao are seniors, to be honest, when it comes to the agency, especially those in the tombs, I, Lao Guo, are definitely not weak." Guo Jianlong hurriedly patted his chest and promised that he had finally come out of prison, but he didn't want to go in again. Instead of staying in prison, he would rather accompany the ancient corpse in a certain tomb.
When Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan heard Guo Jianlong's words, they looked at each other and smiled. Guo Jianlong was also a wonderful person. He was very skilled in changing his mind and had a very thick skin. In the physiognomy, the comments of such people were: It is available but not reusable.
The scope of Emperor Jing’s Mausoleum is not large, and there is no treasure city or Minglou of ordinary imperial tombs. There is only the stele pavilion. Mo Yongxin and his group came to the stele pavilion. A man in black spread a map on the stone table inside the stele pavilion.
"This is the layout diagram of the Jing Emperor's Mausoleum. Mr. Bao and Mr. Fan, come and see if there are any clues."
The Jing Emperor's Mausoleum is divided into three large pieces. The stele pavilion occupied by the few of them is one, Lingen Gate is one, and then Heng Hall. However, the Heng Hall no longer exists, and only a large open space is left.
"If we look at it as a layout diagram, the place where Mr. Chen is most likely to find the sarcophagus should be in Lingen Gate. The stele pavilion we are in was originally just an empty pavilion. The stele stone here was written by Emperor Qianlong and should have nothing to do with the sarcophagus. This can be seen from the fact that Mr. Chen has traveled all the Ming Dynasty imperial tombs that the sarcophagus he found must be related to the Ming Dynasty."
Mo Yongxin pointed to the map, "I originally thought that the most likely thing was in Heng Temple, but Heng Temple had completely disappeared, leaving only an open space, so excluding Heng Temple, now only Lingen Gate is the most likely to have a secret message."
"Miss Mo is right, then let's go to Lingen Sect directly." Old Bao agreed with Mo Yongxin's opinion. Several people walked towards Lingen Sect inside again, while Guo Jianlong, who was walking beside him, had his eyes flashed. However, because he was hunched over and lowered his head, he covered it up very well and was not discovered by anyone.
Lingen Gate is actually a yard, but it is already dilapidated. The rustling walls are telling everyone about the ups and downs he has experienced. Because the Jing Emperor Tomb is not open to the public, few people come to do the resting environment here, and there is a thick layer of dead leaves on the ground.
"If there are so many dead leaves, it will be much more difficult to find the secret passage of the mechanism." Bao Lao frowned when he entered the yard and saw the dead leaves on the ground. Mo Yongxin, Meng Yao and others on the side also turned a little ugly. Things like the secret passage of the mechanism were originally secret, but now with so many dead leaves covering it, it is even more difficult to find it.
"Old Bao, if it really doesn't work, use the Nine Palaces of your Tianji Gate to calculate it." Old Fan suggested to Old Bao.
"If I can calculate, I'll calculate it long ago. These nine palaces can only calculate one divination in seven days. I have used it to calculate Junior Brother Qin's safety last time. I can't make another divination in the near future." Seeing the anticipated eyes of Mo Yongxin and others, Mr. Bao smiled bitterly and shook his head and said.
"There is nothing to do, I can only search for it little by little."
"etc!"
Just as everyone was about to look for it separately, Guo Jianlong suddenly called everyone, looked up at Mo Yongxin, a decisive look flashed across his face, and said, "Miss Mo, if I help you find this hidden mechanism, can you completely save me from prison? It's the kind of person who has no evidence?"
"Can you really find the secret passage?" Before Mo Yongxin could answer, Meng Yao took the lead: "If you can find the secret passage, you will not only guarantee you to be released from prison, but also give you a considerable reward."
Seeing that Long was attracted by Meng Yao's words, a greedy look flashed in Guo's eyes, but he quickly restrained himself. Some money was not so easy to get.
Guo Jianlongshi grew up in a standard Tushima family. His grandfather was a Tushima. He was even more famous when he was in his father's hands. In the entire northern generation, he would give him a thumbs up when talking about the Guo family. Guo Jianlong's father stole many large tombs.
However, when Guo Jianlong was born, the Guo family was no longer able to do it. After ten years of destruction of the four olds and turbulent, the Guo family gradually declined. Guo Jianlong's father also broke a hand during the process of going to the ground. This was a little worse for the Guo family. (To be continued)
