Li Zian couldn't help but frown when he heard Shen Tianshu's request.
Looking at the corpse, I'm afraid it's not easy to do, right?
Not to mention whether the family members of the deceased would agree, the weather is not cool now, so even if they were dug out, they would probably be too rotten to look at.
Yan Laosan said: "I would like to inform you that the customs in Lujia Village are different from other places. After people here pass away, they will use a special method to embalm the body and put it in a coffin. It will be placed in the mountains outside the village until the same year. After all the people of the same generation passed away, they were buried together.
If we discuss it with Yang Fuming, maybe we can secretly open the museum and have a look."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy." Fan Yuru shook his head and said, "Not to mention whether Yang Fuming has the courage to take charge of this matter. If this matter is discovered by the villagers, our situation will be dangerous."
"If that doesn't work, I will reveal my identity!" Li Zian said, "They are all under the rule of Huguang. If they don't obey orders, is it possible that they want to rebel?"
"no!"
"inappropriate!"
Fan Bingrong and Shen Tianshu spoke at the same time.
"Your Majesty, think twice!" Fan Bingrong said first, "For the sake of your Majesty's safety, it's better not to reveal your identity when you go out."
Li Zian looked at Shen Tianshu and asked, "Ms. Tong, do you have other ideas?"
Shen Tianshu said: "The Crown Prince is indeed not suitable to reveal his identity. First of all, as Mr. Fan said, it is too unsafe for the Crown Prince to reveal his identity.
"Secondly, this matter is too bizarre, and the outcome is still unknown. As the prince, it is really not suitable for him to participate in this matter.
"Even if Lujia Village is closed off, it is impossible not to contact the outside world. If word spreads in the future, it will inevitably be detrimental to the palace and the Crown Prince."
"Yes, Madam Tong is right." Fan Bingrong agreed repeatedly.
Just listen to Shen Tianshu continue: "It is better for Mr. Yan to go to Yang Fuming to find out what's going on. If he can agree, it would be best. If he doesn't agree, then Mr. Fan's identity should be revealed to him privately."
"This is a way." Fan Bingrong nodded. If he had to reveal his identity, it would be better to reveal his identity than Li Zi'an's.
Yan Laosan took the order and went to find Yang Fuming and explained the matter again.
Yang Fuming was really shocked when he heard this. He waved his hands and said: "Brother Yan, aren't you harming me? If the people in the village find out, what will I, the patriarch, do?"
"Brother Yang, let's go see it secretly so no one knows about it," Yan Laosan advised, "Besides, isn't this also to save the people in your village?"
It's okay if he didn't say this, but when he said this, Yang Fuming felt that something was a little strange.
"Brother Yan, you are just passing by, there is no need to care about the affairs of our village." The more Yang Fuming thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, "Don't all of you have a problem? If it were an ordinary person, I'm afraid it would be like that at dawn. Run away quickly, not only are you not afraid, you actually want to stay and find out the reason!"
Yan Laosan didn't expect Yang Fuming to be so sharp in such a distressed situation, so he said helplessly: "Brother Yang, we have a life-long friendship, can't you still trust me?"
"To tell you the truth, if it weren't for this friendship with you, I would have asked someone to capture you right now." Yang Fuming said with a serious face.
Yan Laosan had no choice but to say: "That's it, Brother Yang, there has been a lot of chaos in Juzhou recently, and Huguang is not very stable either, do you know?"
"Of course I know this." Although Yang Fuming was too busy taking care of himself with the affairs in the village, the newspapers from above were passed down from level to level and still did not reach Lujia Village. "But what does this have to do with you!"
"You also know that I have been going to Juzhou and Dali to do business in the past few years, but this time I am not doing business myself, but working as a guide for a big shot."
"What big shot?" Yang Fuming was stunned.
"Haven't you seen it yet? If it were a caravan, would there be so many guards?" Yan Laosan approached him and whispered, "If something happens over there in Juzhou, Mr. Fan Bingrong from Prince Rui's Mansion will handle it personally. I am
He was hired by them as a guide.
"Now we have just returned from Juzhou, and we planned to take a detour to Chenzhou Mansion to check on the resettlement situation of the refugees. We took the wrong route and wasted time, so I suggested that I come to stay with you.
"Although Lujia Village is closed, it is also within the territory of Huguang. It is under the jurisdiction of Prince Rui's Mansion and is a citizen of Daqi. When Mr. Fan learned about the situation here, he was naturally very concerned. How could he just leave without caring about your life or death.
"
Yang Fuming was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Yan, brother Yan, you, what are you talking about? The high official of Prince Rui's palace is in our village now?"
"Can I still lie to you?" Yan Laosan asked, "Brother Yang, things in your village are so strange. You must have thought of many ways in the past month, right?"
"You don't have to say this!" Yang Fuming let out a long sigh, "I've tried every trick I could think of, but it's all useless!"
"So now that a great opportunity is in front of us, why are you still resisting and disagreeing?" Yan Laosan continued, "Master Fan has many capable people, and maybe he can find out some clues. It's better than you being unable to do anything here.
Well done! Are you going to watch the villagers get sick one by one and eventually die inexplicably?"
These last words struck a chord with Yang Fuming.
Lujia Village is different from other villages. The people here are almost all Dong people. The connections between people in the village are closer. Almost any two people can be related by relatives or marriages. It can almost be said that the whole village is like
A big family, everyone is family.
So when something like this happened, Yang Fuming, the leader of the clan, was so anxious and angry recently that he had a toothache that made him unable to eat, and he was so upset that he couldn't sleep well all night.
But no matter what, opening the coffin for an autopsy was still a bit beyond Yang Fuming's bottom line.
Even if no one has been buried yet, since the coffin has been sealed, the deceased cannot be disturbed anymore.
"Brother Yan, this matter is not trivial. Let me think about it again. I, I will give you an answer after thinking about it."
Yang Fuming was so entangled in his heart that he kept thinking about this matter after he separated from Yan Laosan.
After he got home, he didn't have the heart to eat. He went back to the room and lay down to continue thinking. Then he fell asleep for some reason.
The next morning, Yang Fuming was awakened by the cries of his family. When he opened his eyes, he saw his father, mother, daughter-in-law, son, and daughter all gathered in front of his bed and crying non-stop.
"I'm not dead yet! What are you doing!" Yang Fuming felt an inexplicable anger rising in his heart.
His wife wiped away her tears and said, "His father, you, you went to dance with them in a Nuo opera last night!"
As soon as these words came out, other people in the room cried louder.
