A knife in love

Chapter 1781

Murong Danyan didn't know why Li Qiufeng was so arrogant, he walked under the big skull regardless, feeling terrified.When she heard Li Qiufeng talking to himself, she was stunned and wanted to hear the meaning of Brother Li's words, it seemed that he didn't take this big skull to heart.

When Murong Danyan was thinking about it, he saw that Li Qiufeng had turned around and said to everyone: "Everyone, don't be afraid. This is not the head of a single person, but someone deliberately got many skulls, piled them together, and put them on display. It became a big skull. This tomb passage is extremely dark. Although we have torches in our hands, the light is limited after all. We are a few feet away from the stone wall, and we are in such a dark place, so we didn’t realize that there is something strange hidden in this big skull. If you don't believe me, you can go up close and have a look, and you will find something strange about this big skull."

When Murong Danyan heard what Li Qiufeng said, although she was a little bit surprised, she always obeyed Li Qiufeng's words, so when Li Qiufeng's words fell, she sheathed her sword and was about to walk towards Li Qiufeng.But before her body moved, Wang Xiaoyu had already rushed out first, and rushed to Li Qiufeng's side, then stopped, moved the torch in his hand closer to the stone wall, and stood on tiptoe to look at the big skull.

After a while, Wang Xiaoyu turned his head, with a look of surprise on his face, and said to Murong Danyan: "Hero Li is right! This big skull is really piled up with many skulls on purpose! I don't know who it is What a trick, it scared us."

At this time, Murong Danyan had already walked to the stone wall, stood with Li Qiufeng and Qi Jiu, and looked up at the big skull.Qi Jiu said: "Brother Li, I heard that after the death of the emperor, living people were to be buried. There are so many heads embedded in the stone wall. Did the emperor kill these people to be buried after his death?"

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said: "I'm ashamed, Li doesn't know what these skulls are used for. But Brother Qi mentioned that the emperor murdered and died, it is true. Emperor Taizu and Emperor Chengzu of this dynasty After his death, he killed his concubines and maids for burial. When Li was on duty in the capital, he heard an old eunuch talk about the old affairs of the previous dynasty, and there was a tragic scene of burial. It is said that after the death of Emperor Chengzu, the harem There were more than [-] concubines and concubines who were lucky enough to be buried by Emperor Chengzu. The day when Emperor Chengzu was encoffined was the time for these poor women to die. These women sat down to the table and sent them on their way after eating and drinking. Just thinking that they would die in a blink of an eye, who would be in the mood to eat and drink? So the wine and dishes were placed on the table, but no one moved their chopsticks. After the banquet was withdrawn, the eunuch Bring these women into the house. When everyone knew that they were about to die, they wept loudly in panic, and the sound of crying shook the palace. Standing on the bed, put the rope hanging from the beam around the women’s necks. After the ropes were finished, some eunuchs moved the beds under the women’s feet, and these women were immediately hanged to death. When I died, I missed my parents, and the sound of calling my mother was so miserable that everyone who heard it wept."

When Li Qiufeng said this, Wang Xiaoyu couldn't help but said loudly: "The emperor is dead when he dies, why should these women be killed?! The most ruthless people in the world are these dog emperors! They oppressed the people when they were alive, and even when they were dead We must take these weak girls to be buried with us! Bah!"

Xiao Dong hid behind the crowd, listening to Wang Xiaoyu's insulting words and insulting the emperor, he thought to himself, this stinky girl is talking nonsense, if these words are known by the government, it will be a serious crime of confiscating the family and exterminating the family.Hmph, I remembered what you said.If I can't kill you here, after we escape, I will report to the government, and I must kill you.

I only heard Li Qiufeng continue to say: "Miss Wang is right. The matter of burial is indeed extremely cruel. It's just that since Qin Shihuang took the name of emperor, there was a system of burial when the emperor died. I have learned from others and dare not change. I established the country under Emperor Taizu and have had eleven emperors so far. Among them, Emperor Renzong is the most famous emperor. Although Emperor Renzong reigned for only one year, he implemented benevolent government and the world The common people all praised him. But even though Emperor Renzong was kind and loving to the people, more than [-] concubines and court ladies were buried after his death. It can be seen that although this matter is cruel, it is not a big deal for the emperor."

Wang Xiaoyu cursed softly while listening to Li Qiufeng.Murong Danyan persuaded her several times, but Wang Xiaoyu was furious and still cursed in a low voice.

Li Qiufeng continued: "Among the eleven emperors since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, although the former Emperor Zhengde was said to have acted absurdly, and some officials even slandered him behind his back and made troubles. However, the most resented by the people and officials is The Emperor Yingzong who was hunted north due to the change of Tumubao. The people hated Emperor Yingzong not only because he listened to the instigation of the treacherous minister Wang Zhen and led an army of 20 out of the fortress. As a result, he was surrounded by Oala in Tumubao, and the whole army was wiped out. Almost all the accompanying ministers Died in this battle, all the famous officials and generals of the imperial court were empty. It was also because after he was released by Wala, with the help of Shi Heng, Xu Youzhen, Cao Jixiang and others, he launched the change of seizing the door and killed the loyal minister Yu Qian .”

When Li Qiufeng said this, he paused for a while, and then said: "Although the Emperor Yingzong is confused, there are many perverse things in his actions. But maybe it is because he lost his teacher and humiliated the country, was captured by Oala, and suffered a lot. Good thoughts. Before his death, he specially issued an imperial decree to abolish the system of sacrificial burial. Emperor Yingzong did many bad things, but the abolition of sacrificial burial can be regarded as a wise move.”

Li Qiufeng finished speaking, only to hear Wang Xiaoyu snorted, and said in his mouth: "These emperors and generals are all ruthless and ungrateful people, how can any one of them be called a good person?!"

Murong Danyan saw that Wang Xiaoyu was speechless, and thought to himself, although we are in the tomb passage, it is unknown whether we can escape.But Sister Xiaoyu is so arrogant, if she doesn't stop it, sooner or later she will cause trouble because of her outrageous words when she walks in the rivers and lakes.Thinking of this, Murong Danyan hurriedly said: "Okay, okay. Whether the emperor is good or bad has nothing to do with us. The most important thing right now is to escape from here, don't worry about other things. "

Li Qiufeng and Qi Jiuxin knew that Murong Danyan was speaking in such a way that he wanted to interrupt Wang Xiaoyu so that she would not talk nonsense and be disrespectful to the emperor.Xiao Dong was on the lookout, although he didn't make trouble, but this person is treacherous and cunning, he has a clue in his hands, and disaster will definitely happen in the future.If everyone can escape in the end, Xiao Dong will definitely report this matter to the government.At that time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice will issue a document to arrest Wang Xiaoyu. Even if we are willing to help, Wang Xiaoyu will have to hide in Tibet and die.

Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng and Qi Jiu also agreed with each other, saying that they should ignore the skull and find a way to escape.Wang Xiaoyu refused to give up, scolded a few more "dog emperors", and then stopped talking.
