As we went back the way, Qinghan and I didn't talk anymore. The two of us thought quietly, and I knew that what we thought about must be the same thing.

Will the Longxi Army, equipped with such fine chain mail, be the army that Lao Ji said "unjuely died", and the soldiers who died unjue became Mr. Hu, and the "unjue souls" in the ghost town mentioned by the merchants of Huiwu?

It's still a bit difficult for me to digest this.

I just want to find Nangong Lizhu to relieve the poison on you. Who knew that such a strange thing would happen? In fact, there was no conflict with the purpose of our trip, so I don’t need to ask more questions, but as Qinghan said, so many of our very related people gathered in the imperial tomb, any small matter would ignite a towering fire. I cannot ignore whether this matter may have any potential for any branches to grow out of the holiday.

Qinghan walked beside me. After a while, he turned to look at my frowning look and said, "Everything will be confirmed before you can talk about it. Don't think about it now."

I smiled bitterly: "How can I not think about it?"

“…”

"Didn't you say that something big will happen sooner or later on the imperial tomb."

He also smiled, but his smile seemed relaxed, and even said a little jokingly: "But don't underestimate the emperor too much."

"he?"

"You think he is a person who does nothing and goes to one place to do something?"

“…”

"He predicted such a dangerous situation in Xi'an Prefecture in advance and prepared it, and finally resolved it in a few words."

“…”

"I think he must be prepared for what is about to happen, because this is his family's imperial tomb. He must know better than anyone else why the imperial tomb was built here and what its purpose is."

I thought about it and nodded, "That's true."

"So, you don't have to worry too much."

I looked at him in a blink of an eye: "You look very confident in the emperor."

He chuckled, raised his head and looked at the road ahead, and said, "Of course I have confidence in him. If I don't have confidence in him, I would not choose to stand on the same boat as him in such a situation." As he said, he turned to look at me: "Aren't you the same?"

I smiled and said, "There is confidence, but I still have to worry."

"What?"

"Now, what is the situation in the Central Plains? I could hear some news before. Since we escorted the coffin of the concubine on the road, no news has come."

Qinghan listened, paused for a moment, and the smile on his face slowly calmed down.

I stopped and turned to look at him and said, "To be honest, Pei Yuanhao has now established the capital of Xi'an Prefecture. It is not difficult to maintain that place, and it is not impossible to settle in a corner, but - do you think he really has a way to regain the Central Plains?"

“…”

Just then, a familiar voice came from the front: "Why are you two coming out?"

When he looked up, Lao Yao came over from a medicine shop in front. He followed two servants, carrying more than a dozen bags of herbs in his hand, and walked over in three steps in two steps. He immediately scolded Qinghan for not running around in such cold weather: "I have prepared so many medicines for you here, but you are still running around. Are you going to let the old man's hard work be wasted?"

“…”

Qinghan was scolded by him so much that he didn't dare to speak. He looked at me with a wry smile. I hurriedly persuaded Lao Yao: "We are also a little bored when we stayed on the road. We finally got here and wanted to come out for a walk."

"Shop? What's the best place to visit? It's so cold here at night. Do you want to catch a cold? Go back to me quickly!"

When we saw him say something, we didn't dare to say anything. Everyone obediently followed him and returned to the palace together.

This night was very quiet, unlike when I lived in Fengxiang City and Qingtang City before. There was no sound of the whistling wind that could not stop all night. The imperial tomb was so quiet that even the heartbeat of a person became calm.

However, I couldn't sleep any more.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw the "ghost town" described by people. Even the "wronged soul" mentioned by Lao Ji kept floating in front of my eyes. I was already over the age of being scared by ghost stories, but this incident was always stuffed into my mind, making it difficult for me to fall asleep.

At this moment, Miaoyan beside him sighed again and turned over.

I looked down at her: "You're not asleep yet?"

Miaoyan let out a "whimper" and looked up at me. His bright big eyes were also shining in the dark: "Mom, aren't you asleep yet?"

"Well. Why haven't you been asleep yet?"

"I, I don't know, I just can't sleep, I keep thinking-"

"What do you think?"

"Imperial Mausoleum, I just saw the imperial mausoleum today. I always think about the imperial mausoleum. Mom, why did the imperial mausoleum be built so far?"

"Have you asked your mother during the day? My mother also said that after the worship tomorrow, you will ask your father again. There is nothing clearer about this than him."

"I think even if I ask, my father may not be willing to say it."

"Oh? Why do you say that."

"Because-I think my father has many important things to do in the imperial tomb."

“…”

I was slightly stunned and looked at her. Miaoyan had no other reaction. She still leaned in my arms, holding my waist with one hand, and still twisting me like I did when I was a child. This feeling made me feel so comfortable. I reached out and stroked her back and said, "Did you hear something, or see something?"

Miaoyan calmed down for a moment and said, "Today, after you go out, I have nothing to do, so I went out to relax. As a result, I saw that Lord Zhang was explaining to others."

"Oh? What did he explain?"

"He told him to remove some of the imperial guards around the imperial tombs when worshiping tomorrow."

"What?!"

I held up a little and leaned against the head of the bed. Miaoyan also raised her head to look at me. I asked, "Did Lord Zhang explain this?"

"yes."

"He wants to withdraw some of the imperial guards?"

"yes."

“…”

I was also a little stunned for a moment.

Tomorrow, the emperor will go to the imperial tomb to worship in person. The guards in this place should be more strict than usual. How could some imperial tomb guards be removed? Isn’t that putting the emperor in danger?

Is there something wrong with Zhang Gongji?

I hurriedly said, "Then, did you tell your father?"

"I said it."

"What did your father say?"
