Yao Guangxiao didn't take anything, he was just walking around.
It was surrounded by hundreds of Xiaoling Guards and personnel from the Qintian Prison.
Liu Rixin took the compass and made constant calculations.
Occasionally, I would discuss it with the staff of Qintian Prison.
Zhu Di just waited quietly, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.
Mainly because Yao Guangxiao didn't look like he was measuring at all, just like looking at the scenery.
Zhu Di was a complete layman in this kind of metaphysical arithmetic and general knowledge, and could only watch the excitement.
About half an hour later, Yao Guangxiao seemed to have finished talking, and then he came over.
"Well, Master, you've already finished it."
Zhu Di asked impatiently. He had no idea about this thing.
Yao Guangxiao nodded, pointed to the surrounding mountains and said: "Tall and handsome are males, low and low are females, which are the male and female of the Dragon family. Thick and full bones are fat, and hard and thin bones are barren, which are the fertility and barrenness of the Dragon family."
"If the fat dragon is fat and protected, there will be no suspicion of being bloated. If the fat dragon is fat, there will be no cold disease. If this is the purpose of the dragon, then..."
Zhu Di was speechless and interrupted directly: "Say something that I can understand."
You really don’t deserve to be a son of man.
Zhu Di's talent was not originally very high. He grew up in a military camp and found it hard to chew words.
He also said some such Taoist terminology, which made Zhu Di look confused.
Yao Guangxiao reacted after hearing this.
He also knew about Zhu Di's literary level.
It's just that I was immersed in the deduction just now, so I didn't pay attention and just told it subconsciously.
"The poor monk just looked at the direction of these mountains. The ground here is a little gentle and does not receive sunlight, so the trees should not be as lush as above."
"But the land here seems to be more fertile, and the trees are even much more lush than above."
"According to the humble monk's deduction, there is only one possibility for this kind of situation, that is, there may be an underground river under the ground, making the land fertile, which is why it is possible."
Yao Guangxiao explained.
Corresponding to the earth dragon rolling that Zhu Di told him before, he then checked the trend of the surrounding mountains and the growth of the trees.
Yao Guangxiao quickly came to a conclusion.
"So, it would be extremely difficult to excavate the tomb?" Zhu Di asked.
After hearing Yao Guangxiao's explanation, Zhu Di also understood the meaning.
Zhu Di, who was good at marching and fighting, knew the geographical situation very well.
Especially when looking for water sources in the desert, you need to observe the direction of underground rivers.
"That's right, the poor monk just passed by the Qintian Prison personnel and heard their conversation. He must have been constantly estimating the direction of the underground river."
"This excavation is extremely difficult. If we accidentally dig into the underground river, it is very likely to cause a secondary collapse."
When Yao Guangxiao said this, he hesitated and whispered: "The underground river here is vast, and it is not ruled out that the mausoleum collapsed directly into the underground river."
"In this case, no matter how much digging is done, it will be useless."
After Zhu Di heard this, he thought deeply for a moment and said: "If this is the case, it doesn't matter much, but manpower still needs to be arranged. We can't place our hopes on the underground river."
Yao Guangxiao nodded and replied: "What His Highness said is reasonable. After we return, the poor monk will draw a simple terrain and explain it. All we need to do is find an opportunity and dig near the underground river."
"When it collapses again and the geography changes, it won't be so easy to use."
Zhu Di was extremely satisfied when he heard this and glanced at the Qintian Prison personnel who were still making calculations.
Then he led everyone away.
...
Prince Zhu Fang, the second eldest son of the Zhu family.
He is handsome and like his father. He was smart at a young age, strict and brave, and accomplished in both literature, Taoism and military strategy.
It was only after becoming a vassal that he became cruel and unkind.
Last year, in the 24th year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Yuanzhang directly summoned Zhu Fang back. If Zhu Biao hadn't stopped him, he would have directly taken back Zhu Fang's vassal land and reduced the king's title.
Recently, his eldest brother Zhu Biao passed away due to illness, and Zhu Peng lived a very cautious life.
On weekdays, I don’t go out through the front door, and I don’t say anything until I step out the second door.
Every morning after morning service, the first thing I do is pay homage to my eldest brother at the funeral palace.
Many eminent monks were even invited to the mansion to chant sutras and mourn for their eldest brother Zhu Biao day and night.
The reason for this is that Zhu Xi was afraid of his father and blamed himself for his eldest brother's death.
After all, the eldest brother died of the cold after returning from a patrol in his domain.
Although this is suspected of being pretentious, he also has great feelings for his eldest brothers Zhu Biao and Zhu Fang.
After all, before his death, the eldest brother was trying to persuade his father to forgive him.
In Zhu Xi's heart, he felt very guilty for the death of his eldest brother.
Perhaps it was precisely because of Zhu Biao's plea before his death that although Zhu Yuanzhang did not have a good look at Zhu Chong, he did not punish him severely.
"Your Majesty, when will this kind of life end?"
In the prince's palace in the capital, the second concubine Deng leaned on Zhu Ping's shoulder and said a little aggrievedly.
Ever since he came to the capital, Deng felt like a bird in a cage. He no longer had the freedom of a feudal lord. He had to walk on thin ice and be cautious in everything he did.
"Let's wait for a while. You know the current situation well. My father doesn't speak. What can I do? After my eldest brother is buried, I will go and find out what my father has to say."
Zhu Xi looked at Deng's delicate face and comforted her with pity.
"snort."
Deng snorted softly and turned away, obviously very dissatisfied with this answer.
She is the daughter of Deng Yu, Prince of Ninghe County, and she grew up in fine clothes and fine food.
From being unscrupulous in the vassal to being cautious in the capital, the gap made her very irritated.
But now, the Deng family in the capital has little to rely on.
His father, Deng Yu, the Duke of Wei, died of illness on his way back to the court in the tenth year of Hongwu.
Her brother Deng Zhen attacked Duke Shen and was implicated by Li Shanchang in the 23rd year of Hongwu's reign and was killed.
So now the only person Deng can rely on is Zhu Ping.
"My sweetheart, don't be angry, there's nothing I can do about it." Zhu Xi continued to comfort him.
"Don't say this. I asked you to summon a cook before, but you couldn't do it. Why are you talking like this?"
Mrs. Deng snorted, turned her head again and said.
"That's the fourth son's property. I heard yesterday that even the eldest son of the third son's family personally invited people to the mansion."
"Now we can't offend anyone. You know the conflict between the third child and the fourth child. It would be bad if you get involved and suffer for nothing."
Zhu Xi explained quickly.
Ping'an Tea House's breakfast is very famous, but no one has any bad intentions. It's because ordinary people don't know, but how can nobles not understand?
That is the property of King Yan Zhu Di. Anyone who dares to make trouble will offend Zhu Di's face.
Your Majesty must be looking towards his son.
"It won't work this way, that won't work either, how can we go on living like this?" Deng pouted and said angrily.
Zhu Fang hesitated again and again, and finally said with clenched teeth: "I invited the owner of the teahouse over and asked him to make my favorite pastry for my concubine. This is great."
"Humph, that's pretty much it. The breakfast made at his restaurant is so delicious, and the pastries are definitely not bad either."
After Deng finished speaking, she snuggled into Prince Zhu Xi's arms again.
She didn't consider whether being a breakfast cook could make pastries.
........
Annan border, among the mountains.
A somewhat luxurious carriage moved forward slowly, guarded by cooked food cavalry in front and behind.
On a hillside somewhere, there were several big men looking at it.
"Brother, where are we going to rob people?" A bearded man couldn't help but ask the elder brother in the front row.
"There is news that our boss is in the capital, so we should go to the capital." The eldest brother said without looking back.
"But brother, they seem to be going to the capital as well." The big man behind couldn't help but say.
When the elder brother heard this, he couldn't help being stunned, and then scolded: "Idiot, if they leave on their own, is it the same as if they were kidnapped by us?"
"If you are told to study, you will go to sleep. This is not true."
The big man who was scolded did not dare to talk back.
After reading it, the eldest brother asked:
"How many brothers do we have here now?"
"About a hundred horses."
"That's enough. Let's inform the brothers to find a place to set up an ambush and start tomorrow."
"yes, Sir."
