Xu Yan, the Duke of Changle, and Xu pound, the Duke of Yong'an, with a hundred and twenty thousand blessings, happily took their own bodyguards back to the capital to reply to Emperor Yongping.
As for the soldiers and horses brought by the two men, they were ordered to stay outside the imperial mausoleum for the time being. Only when the four guards and horses of the imperial mausoleum camp stationed at the imperial mausoleum returned, could they return to the original camp and guards.
"Brother, don't you think it's too strange?"
Xu Pang, the Duke of Yong'an, 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, some people created a lot of obstacles, and even a large number of thieves attacked them with strong bows and crossbows.
But in the end, the imperial mausoleum was safe and sound, which is obviously a problem.
"What's the matter, then?"
Chang Le Gong looked at his cousin with a slightly displeased expression.
Can't he see that the imperial mausoleum is abnormal?
But the question is, how can we see it?
When things go wrong, in the end, the holy one has to be held responsible. Who will this person be? Can there be anyone else besides their Xu family?
If they catch the troublemaker, there's something to be said about it. But now, on the surface, there is no problem with the mausoleum. Everything is so calm, why do they have to make trouble?
Do you really want to find someone to top the bag?
You know, people who dare to do this kind of thing, it is not fatal, even the ancestors of eight generations do not care. The law of the Tang Dynasty is even more improper.
Such people, in today's Tang Dynasty, in addition to the remaining evils of the former dynasty, are robbing fortune. The remaining evils of the former dynasty are basically over. Even the last Du family has married their little cousin who was expelled from Xu's house.
Then, the truth is self-evident.
For the imperial mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty, it is to rob the road of fortune.
Since emperor Taizu's time, he has been calling for everyone to be killed.
But now, it's still alive.
How many of the xungui, Wenchen and Wujiang in the imperial court have such and such connections with jieyundao secretly. After all, robbing, robbing and transshipment are all very helpful to them.
"Brother, what I want to say is that our ancestors were also buried in the imperial mausoleum!"
"Even if it's done by robbing yundao, we can't ignore it."
"It's not just digging their Li family's ancestral grave, it's also digging our Xu family's ancestral grave."
Xu Pang looked at his big brother in the lobby. "This time, I've gone too far in robbing yundao. We must teach them a lesson, otherwise, they will only be more aggressive. "
"Good, then you go up the fold!"
"Just, do you have evidence?"
Xu Yan doesn't want to talk to this cousin.
The existence of the hijacking road for so many years is enough to explain many things.
Even if it's true that it's robbing yundao, there's no evidence. Then some spokesmen of robbing yundao in the court are afraid that they will be labeled as incompetent.
At that time, even emperor Yongping will have doubts about their brother's ability.
Not long ago, their nephew, Xu Huairen, the Duke of Antai, went wrong in Beiman. Now it's not a final conclusion!
"Brother, you mean we won't say anything!"
Brother Xu understood what he thought and looked at his home.
Xu Yan sighed and said: "second brother, the key to this matter is that we have no discovery or evidence. It's just a waste of breath to spell out our subjective conjecture
There is no abnormality in the imperial mausoleum. The people who sniped them on the road are unidentified. There is no one alive and nothing.
In the current situation, they are really at a loss.
You guess the truth, in the end is not the truth, you say not.
"Our Xufu is really beautiful now, but after Huairen's nephew's accident, our Xufu is now on the cusp of the storm!"
"Brother, I think you are too timid!"
Xu Pang snorted, "there are three gongs in Xu's family. Our ancestors are the only king with different surnames in Tang Dynasty. Although our ancestors are gone, no one knows the prestige of King Taiping. "
"We don't do anything now, just to discredit our ancestors!"
Xu pound is really direct enough, even in the face of his lobby brother, is still outspoken.
"As long as we Xu family don't rebel, even if it's the sage today, we can't do anything about it!"
"What's more, my aunt is still there!"
The aunt in Xu's mouth is the old prince of Xu's house.
There is Xu Taijun in Xu's house as a god of the sea needle, Xu pound is not worried about who can frame their Xu's house.
"Second brother, why are you so confused?"
Xu Yan, the Duke of Changle, looked at his cousin with a grudge, "my aunt is still here, but how many years can my aunt live? When my aunt's gone, how can we deal with ourselves? ""Don't forget, our little cousin was driven out of the house before, and her daughter-in-law lost her life because of this, and her son didn't have much chance. Do you think he hates us?"
"Now, with his aunt in the house, he can't do anything.
"But if my aunt is gone, how can we get along with ourselves?"
"Second brother, you should think about the long term in everything!"
Xu Yan felt that he was really too difficult.
He should not only consider himself, but also consider the situation of his cousin Xu Pang, so as to avoid this cousin being impulsive and confused and doing things that will make him regret in the future.
Listen to Xu Yan such a say, Xu pound is a time no words.
Frankly speaking, he had never thought about these things before.
Their aunt's body looks very bright now, but she is an elderly person after all. Although they did not know how old the aunt was, she was adopted by Emperor Taizu.
If you don't want to do these things, you will have to think about them carefully.
"Brother, how old is our aunt this year?"
"You ask me, who do I ask?"
Xu Yan rolled his eyes, "it must be much bigger than you and me. You can count it yourself
"Well I don't know how long my aunt will live! "
"Don't worry, I'm sure I can live a long time. Every time the doctor gives her a pulse, I pay attention to it!"
"Brother, do you think there will be a part of my aunt's longevity..."
Xu Pang didn't explain it. He just winked at Xu Yan. The meaning is self-evident.
How can normal people live so long?
Xu pound didn't think about this before, but now he thinks that their aunt is also connected with robbing yundao.
"Be careful!"
Why did Xu Yan not have such a guess?
But the problem now is that there are some things that we can see through without saying through.
Although they are the princes of the Tang Dynasty, their position as princes of the Tang Dynasty is not very safe. 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 on in Xu's mansion, the emperor will not care who is the Duke of Changle and Yongan.
Anyway, as long as he did not violate the emperor Taizu's imperial edict, then the rest is not important at all.
Chang Le Gong and Yong'an Gong are talking in a low voice, and they slowly arrive outside the capital.
At this time, Duke Yong'an subconsciously looked back at the west mountain where the imperial mausoleum was located.
And it was this look back that frightened Yong'an into falling from the horse.
"Big, big, big brother!"
"What's the matter?"
Chang Le Gong turned his head and looked at Yong'an Gong. He saw that Yong'an Gong was looking at the direction of Xishan imperial mausoleum.
He looked back abruptly.
This look, Changle Xu Yan is also confused.
But soon, he regained consciousness.
"Second brother, go back!"
At this time, they can never go back to the capital.
The location of the imperial mausoleum on the western mountain is just the moment when the smoke is rolling up into the sky.
The two brothers immediately turned their horses around and rushed to the West Mountain imperial mausoleum with their own guards.
The official road to the mausoleum has been cleared of most of the trees and rocks. As a result, the two brothers can ride directly to the mausoleum.
"What's the matter?"
"Why is there a fire?"
Xu Yan, the Duke of Changle, rushed to the camp of the imperial mausoleum and immediately asked.
However, the camp was quiet.
When the fire broke out in the imperial mausoleum, all the left behind soldiers were mobilized and rushed up the mountain to put out the fire.
Unfortunately, it's autumn time now. Books begin to fall leaves and grass begin to wither. Once the fire starts, it's unrealistic to fight it with a little manpower.
The fire is out of control.
"Disaster, disaster!"
Changlegong watched the fire quickly set the trees around the imperial mausoleum on fire, watched the fire spread in all directions, and sat down on the ground.
……
At the same time, Du qingruo, the saint of the road of fortune robbing, looks at a group of subordinates on the top of the western mountain where the imperial mausoleum is located, with a strong smile on her face.
She set the fire.
However, it was not her intention to burn the western mountain where the imperial mausoleum was located.
The words of master Zhao Bingji and master Zhao Er almost broke Du qingruo's mind.
Du qingruo is very clear that if it is her master and the master who robbed yundao gets rid of her, then even if she escapes the disaster, she will be in danger for a second time.
This time, she was lucky to avoid the past.
But next time?
Next time?Du qingruo can't guarantee that he can have such good luck every time.
So, she is going to imitate the king of Yan and feign death.
She wanted to see what her master would do after she died and what she would do after robbing yundao.
"Saint, it's time for us to go!"
When Du qingruo was thinking about what to do later, his subordinates suddenly opened their mouths.
"Where are you going?"
Du qingruo looked at a few people around him and said, "up to now, I won't hide it from you!"
"We should have been betrayed!"
"We've been betrayed on the way to rob the fortune!"
"And before we find out this person, if we go back, we will die. So I'm going to die and hide in the dark and find out the truth! "
"Before that, if you are not afraid of death, you can choose to go back!"
Du qingruo said lightly, but she has already told the news that she is going to cheat her death. If several people around her insist on going back, they will have to go back to grandma's house!
"My subordinates are willing to obey the orders of the virgin!"
The wise man immediately made the right choice and was loyal to the virgin.
And that hesitant person, did not even have time to speak, was next to the people to wipe the neck.
"Well, let's go!"
Du qingruo looks at the dead two and turns to leave without expression.
As for the bodies of these two people, they were poured with bone melting water by their subordinates without even her command.
……
The capital, Qiantian hall.
When the column of smoke rose in the direction of Xishan imperial mausoleum, a servant reported the news to Emperor Yongping.
Although no one knows what happened to the imperial mausoleum in Xishan, it must be something unusual with such a heavy smoke.
"I am ashamed of my ancestors!"
Emperor Yongping went out of Qiantian hall, facing the imperial mausoleum of Xishan, and knelt on the ground.
……
Dingguo government, the eldest princess was also called up.
"Robbing the road of fortune is really life and death!"
The eldest princess didn't even go to find out the news, so she had already put this matter on the head of the road.
"Your Highness, there are people in the palace again!"
"Tell the visitor, and say, what is the important matter of the country? The holy one asks the woman in this palace what to do? Do as you should. Don't you know how to choose? "
For Yongping emperor sent people to come, the eldest princess was quite angry.
The head of the female guard, riyao, sees that the eldest princess is angry. He goes to see the servant outside and tells the servant what the eldest princess means in a rather severe tone.
How ever did the servant see this? He was almost scared to pee. He went back to report to Emperor Yongping.
Emperor Yongping didn't expect that the imperial mausoleum of Xishan was burned, and his good aunt didn't come to see him.
"Father LAN!"
"The maid is here!"
After hearing Yongping emperor's call, Duke LAN answered calmly.
"Pass on my will and invite the old prince of Xu's family to enter the palace!"
"Yes
Duke LAN answered immediately and went to find someone to send a message to Xu's house.
……
At the same time, in the CIREN Hall of the Xu family, Xu Laotai Jun had already changed into his Gaoming clothes and was waiting to enter the palace to face the saint.
When the imperial edict came, Xu took people directly to the palace.
It was almost when Mr. Xu arrived at the palace gate that the messengers sent by Duke Changle and Duke Yongan arrived.
Someone set fire to Xishan imperial mausoleum!
Although this kind of arson will not damage the imperial mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty. However, all the vegetation on the mountain was burned, which was also a great embarrassment to the imperial mausoleum of the Tang Dynasty.
It's like a person without clothes.
"Something's really going to happen!"
Knowing what happened in Xishan, Xu Taijun sighed.
……
"What a crazy woman!"
At the top of a hill far away from the imperial mausoleum of the western mountain, Zhao Bingxuan and Zhao Rui saw the rising flames and smoke pillars on the western mountain. They felt this way almost at the same time.
"Master, are you sure this crazy woman can do something?"
"It doesn't matter if it can't be done!"
Zhao Bingju sighed, "anyway, it's just a piece of chess. If you can use it, you can't use it. If you abandon it, you can use it!"
