Quick Wear: Random Cheats

Chapter 50 The Princess Takes the Blame and is Granted Death (50)

As mentioned before, information is transmitted very quickly nowadays. So when the eunuch in charge of the Lu Wang Mausoleum dug for a day and was completely sure that there were no wood or brick ruins of the Lu Wang Mausoleum underneath, only broken rocks, he quickly contacted local officials and reported the relevant information through the post station.

This urgent document has not yet been delivered to the capital.

To be precise, Ding Shui had already taken eight royal tombs, including the Garu Tomb, and arrived in the capital before he was halfway there. Without wasting a second, he floated directly above the Imperial Ancestral Temple, still slowly closing it in, pretending to be a dragon, and frightened all the eunuchs and palace maids guarding the temple out.

Wait until they have completely evacuated.

Ding Shui then threw all eight royal tombs down.

Ding Shui was quite busy as the eight royal tombs suddenly fell and destroyed the Taimiao. Because the eight royal tombs were quite large, combined, they were even larger than the Taimiao. Some eunuchs and palace maids were terrified, watching the eight royal tombs fall from the sky without knowing how to hide, or perhaps their legs were too weak to move. If Ding Shui hadn't intervened, even if they had left the Taimiao, they would have been crushed to death by the royal tombs outside.

So Ding Shui could only expend his mental energy again to transfer them to the synthetic storage space, then float to a safe place and release them all.

This will delay a lot of things.

This also kept Ding Shui busy for a while.

By the time she had finished settling the eunuchs and palace maids, the eight royal tombs had completely collapsed, destroying the entire Imperial Ancestral Temple. The noise and the sound were so great that almost the entire capital felt a slight tremor, and the palace was even more like an earthquake. Ding Shui then promptly announced to the capital:
"Will the man who first created clay figures for burials have no descendants?

Zhu Yi, if you dare to carry out such evil policies as burying people alive with the dead again, after your death, I will have the entire royal family, all your descendants, buried alive with you!

Ding Shui was really angry and didn't even bother to argue with Emperor Tianwu, so he just threatened him directly.

After saying that, she floated back to her mother's home, that is, the Mansion of Duke Shu, to see if her sister was still there. As long as her sister didn't curse him now, Ding Shui felt that he had to save her sister's life no matter what.

Not to mention the reactions of others, including Emperor Tianwu, anyway, when Ding Shui floated to the Shuguo Mansion and found her sister, her sister was holding her mother's hand with a look of surprise: "That's great, mother, did you hear it?

I don’t have to die!

I remember clearly that this voice was the voice that avenged my sister and killed the King of Lu. Now she is saying that those who started the practice of burying burial mounds will have no descendants. Her words are so fierce that Your Majesty is not allowed to bury people alive with the dead again. Am I safe now?

A sixteen-year-old girl, well fed and well-fed, living a comfortable life, wouldn't want to die. So when she learned a few days ago that she was going to be sent to the Lu King's Mausoleum to be buried alive, she cried her eyes out, and her inner resentment towards the imperial power was extreme.

It's just that he doesn't dare to express it out loud for the sake of his family.

At the same time, although the mother Meng Zhang's face showed a little joy, she was not too happy because she was not sure whether the current emperor would really compromise because of this?

But to make my daughter feel more at ease.

She still forced a smile and said comfortingly:

"That's right, it will be fine..."

After that, the mother and daughter chatted for a while. Meng Xuan, who hadn't slept well for several days, finally fell into a deep sleep because she felt much more at ease.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Zhang hurried out to send people to inquire about the news, to find out what had happened and what the previous shock was. At the same time, she quickly went to find Duke Shu, wanting to discuss with him whether she could take this opportunity to try to save her third daughter Meng Xuan.

It was established that the eldest daughter was blamed by Emperor Tianwu.

The third daughter and her friends still tried to struggle. Duke Shu had already donned his official robes, believing that Emperor Tianwu would likely seek them out for consultation after such a major event. So, without much trouble, Meng Zhang found her husband, who was already prepared, in Qingxi Hall at the Duke's Mansion.

And ask him directly what he thinks about what happened today.

Is it possible to save the third daughter by this means?

"It's hard to say. I've already sent people to inquire about it. Judging from the direction and the dust, something must have happened at the Taimiao, but I'm not sure what the details are yet.

And you know the current temper.

Once you make up your mind, it is difficult to change it.

A few days ago, I tried to submit a memorial, saying that Xuan'er was willing to become a nun to pray for Prince Lu and guard his tomb for the rest of her life, hoping to save Xuan'er's life.

I was directly rejected yesterday and couldn’t write it accurately.

I'm not sure if there's any room for maneuver; I still need to understand what's happening. It's likely a true clash of gods; I don't know which will prevail, but right now, I really hope that unknown god prevails. Anyway, you should make sure your daughter eats and sleeps well; she can't collapse before she's buried alive.

At least there is still hope..."

When Duke Shu received the rejected memorial yesterday stating that the memorial was not allowed, he had actually given up hope. He knew that the matter had been settled and difficult to change, but he just didn't dare to tell his daughter and wife directly.

Now we see a turning point.

Only then did he dare to tell the follow-up of the memorial he submitted a few days ago.

"What? The petition didn't pass?

He...his children are human beings, so our children are not? Before he ascended the throne and made his fortune, he said that we were all brothers who conquered the world together. Now...which brother, when his son died, would let his brother's daughter be buried with him?

Still not married...

Even when it comes to treating our servants, we don't treat them like him. And we pretend to be well-read. I think the goddess is right. "He who first made burial mounds of clay will have no descendants." Isn't that what Confucius said? Hasn't he read it?"

Meng Zhang was very restrained. She paused several times while shouting these words, and after she finished speaking, she continued to mutter in a rather unsatisfied manner:

"Liu Ying, the only son of the Marquis of Heze, lost control of his horse and killed someone. He had already actively compensated, but he was still ruthlessly beheaded according to national law. Yet, his own son killed so many people, and he never mentioned the ruthlessness of national law!"

"Two of his consorts have already died. Why doesn't he let his daughter be buried alive with the deceased consorts?"

"Well, be careful, the walls have ears!"

Duke Shu hurried to persuade his wife to stop, but he didn't dare let her continue. If she continued, she might say something outrageous. Although most of the Embroidered Uniform Guards had been transferred by the Crown Prince, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be any at home.

"I see. It would be great if the prince could ascend the throne."

"Shut up!"
