There were many words, large and small, on the tombstone, but there were only two words in Xie Yao's eyes: Chu Ye.
Does this tombstone belong to Chu Ye?
Why does the soil have signs of being recently turned?
Wu Feng watched Chu Ye being buried with his own eyes. The soil here should have been paved!
"Wufeng!" Xie Yao wanted to check whether there was a coffin under the soil and whether there was Chu Ye's body. But as soon as he shoveled it twice, he felt discomfort all over his body and could only shout outside.
Previously, Xie Yao took Zi Qing into the imperial mausoleum, while Wu Feng stayed outside.
The Crown Princess heard Xie Yao's shout and looked back.
Seeing Xie Yao standing still from a distance, as if she had encountered some difficulty, a cold look of disdain flashed across her face, "It's just a few steps, look at her squeamish look! Her belly is only a few months old now."
She is so delicate, and I don’t know what it will be like when I give birth.”
Concubine Jing was worried when she saw Xie Yao's appearance, "Concubine, the queen is pregnant with a dragon seed after all. My daughter-in-law should go over and take a look."
After speaking, he saluted the Crown Princess and without waiting for a response, he turned around and walked back.
"Don't worry about her, let's go back to the palace." The Crown Princess snorted coldly and left.
Just as Concubine Jing walked toward Xie Yao, Wu Feng also received Xie Yao's call and immediately started running away.
"Mother, what are you calling me for?" Wu Feng arrived first and saw that although Xie Yao looked bad, she didn't seem to be in trouble.
"I..." Xie Yao saw Concubine Jing approaching, so she stopped and winked.
Wu Feng understood and stood aside with a bow.
"Queen, what happened to the Ai family when you summoned them without guards?" Concubine Jing came to the front and asked with concern.
Xie Yao smiled back and said, "Don't worry, concubine. I just feel a little unwell. I'll be fine after taking some medicine. Zi Qing, go back to the carriage and get the medicine."
Regarding Chu Ye's burial, she didn't want to mention it in front of Concubine Jing. What's more, she still had some questions to ask Wu Feng.
"You don't have to ask the palace maid to get the medicine! Wu Guard, just go and run." Concubine Jing knew that Wu Feng was left by Chu Han to protect Xie Yao, but after all, he was a man, so how could he stay in the imperial mausoleum with Xie Yao?
There will be something wrong.
"He doesn't know where the medicine is. My daughter-in-law called him here so that Ziqing could get the medicine. Concubine, the imperial grandmother has gone far. You can go back. Don't worry." Xie Yao revealed her true feelings.
The calm smile made Concubine Jing feel at ease.
Concubine Jing turned around and saw the figure of the Crown Princess walking away. She hesitated for a moment and said, "The Ai family will leave first. Your Imperial Grandmother is very satisfied with your performance today. The late Emperor treated you like that. You not only helped him bury him, but also paid tribute to him yourself."
It’s really hard for you to get rid of the soil.”
"With one move today, your royal grandmother should no longer be cold to you."
Xie Yao moved the corner of her mouth slightly in response.
The Crown Princess is cold to her?
From the beginning to the end, she never cared about the attitude of the Crown Princess, nor did she intend to get along with the Crown Princess.
The promise to leave the whole body of Emperor Zhaochu was also for Chu Han's sake.
Now the person buried as Emperor Zhaochu is King Pingxi. Emperor Zhaochu has been shattered to pieces. If the Crown Princess knew, the sky would probably collapse!
Concubine Jing nodded, then turned and left.
Only Xie Yao and Wu Feng are left here.
"Mother, please call me..." Wu Feng knew very well that Xie Yao must have something to do with him.
"You said you were watching King Chen being buried before. Was he buried here?" Xie Yao's eyes darkened, and she pointed to the plowed soil aside.
Wu Feng looked at the turned soil, his expression suddenly froze, "It's right here!"
No wonder he felt a little familiar just standing here. He had been here last night!
only……
"After the burial, I was the last one to leave. I can be sure that the soil here has been smoothed. It shouldn't be like this!" Wu Feng squatted down and touched it, frowning, "The surface soil is very soft, someone must have dug it.
.”
Xie Yao's eyes suddenly turned cold and cold, and she glanced at the front.
Concubine Jing had already caught up with the Crown Princess, and everyone stood still there for some reason. The Crown Princess even glanced this way.
Seeing Xie Yao raise her eyes and then look away, she turned around and walked away.
After everyone disappeared from sight, Xie Yao's voice suddenly turned cold, "dig it up!"
This is an imperial mausoleum, guarded by someone, not a tomb in a barren mountain where any fox or wild dog can dig the grave.
There wasn’t even a chance for the people below to dig up the soil from Chu Ye’s grave by mistake!
Emperor Zhaochu's tomb is on the other side. Whether it is location or size, it is incomparable to Chu Ye's tomb.
So, she thought there must be something wrong!
"Yes!" Wu Feng also felt a little strange, found a shovel from the side and dug directly.
Xie Yao stared at him intently.
The soil was soft, and Wu Feng was a martial arts practitioner. He quickly dug out most of the soil on the coffin, revealing the coffin inside.
After digging a few more times, Xie Yao's keen eyes fell on the gap on the edge of the coffin lid, and suddenly shrank!
There is a gap there, which is caused by the coffin lid not being closed tightly!
In other words, the coffin has been opened!
Is there anything important in Chu Ye's coffin?
Or is there someone who hates Chu Ye so much that they want to dig up his body and whip him?
"Open the lid of the coffin." Xie Yao stood steadily, staring inside.
Wufeng took the order and immediately dug out more soil until it was enough to open the lid before stopping.
At this time, Ziqing came back and her expression changed when she saw the situation here, "Mother, this is..."
"Go and guard outside. If anyone wants to come in, stop them directly." Xie Yao ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes." Although Ziqing was confused, she didn't dare to hesitate and turned around.
Wu Feng put a hand on the edge of the coffin lid and lifted it hard.
"Crunch!"
There was a harsh sound, and the lid of the coffin was completely opened, revealing the situation inside.
Although Xie Yao was mentally prepared, she was still shocked when she saw it!
The coffin is empty, there is no body of Chu Ye!
Wu Feng was startled when he saw this, and subconsciously asked: "What's going on?"
"Call all the people guarding the imperial mausoleum. I have something to ask them." Xie Yao felt a little uncomfortable, maybe because she had been standing for a long time, so she found a seat from the side.
Someone actually stole Chu Ye's body. It's impossible that the guards of the imperial mausoleum didn't know about such a huge movement.
She suddenly felt a little strange, who wanted to steal Chu Ye's body?
"Yes!" Wufeng took the order and left, calling Ziqing back at the same time.
But before that, he had already closed the lid of the coffin and kicked back some soil.
Soon, all the guards were called over. After learning that King Chen's body was missing, they all knelt down in fear, "The Queen knows this! I am guarding the imperial mausoleum and I have not seen anyone coming or going!"
