I really can't control myself

Soon Linton returned to Yalan and immediately explained what he had learned. Of course, after hearing what Linton said, Yalan here was also confused.

"Brother? This is impossible!" Yalan's first reaction was the same as Linton's. Of course, he didn't believe it was really Damian. Linton was really too lazy to attend Damion's funeral before, which meant he showed up at the farewell ceremony. And Yalan watched Damian being put into the coffin with his own eyes. How could another eldest prince emerge from this?

"You don't think it's true either? But Losos swore that he was right. I think what he said is somewhat credible. On the one hand, he is definitely not a fool and is not easily deceived. On the other hand, he is certainly not a fool. If it hadn't been confirmed again and again, he probably wouldn't have risked his life and his family to commit rebellion," Linton said.

If he can indeed become the commander of the legion, there will obviously be no problem with Losos's mind. Linton felt that the other party must have given enough evidence to prove his identity, so that the two commanders of the First Army and the Second Army would follow him in rebellion.

"But I just watched my eldest brother's body being put into the coffin and then into the imperial mausoleum." Yalan here also said with great certainty, "His body should still be in the imperial mausoleum now."

The more popular method in the empire is direct burial. Different places in this world have different beliefs and burial rituals. Some places believe in gods like the God of Fire. They believe that people can return to the kingdom of God after they are cremated, so they use cremation. But most of the people in the empire believe in the religion of light, and burials are obviously popular.

Logically speaking, Damion's body should still be lying in the imperial mausoleum. Not long ago, it probably hasn't completely turned into bones yet. Because when the royal family is buried, certain treatments are performed, similar to the old-fashioned embalming method, and the body will eventually look like a mummy.

"Then...open the coffin and take a look?" Linton directly suggested after hearing this.

"Open the coffin?" Yalan hesitated slightly after hearing this. No matter what kind of culture, they basically pay attention to burial. The world of living beings and the world of death should be separated and should not disturb each other. To simply say that opening a coffin is obviously inappropriate.

However, she did not hesitate for too long. After all, the matter was now more serious, and it was indeed necessary to verify the other party's identity as soon as possible. If Damian's body is still there, it is obvious that the other party is fake, but if it is not there, this matter becomes a bit strange again, and preparations really need to be made in advance.

As I said before, Yalan still has some thoughts about the throne. After all, after giving birth to a baby, she wants to show her son the throne. The current situation has posed a certain threat to the throne, and we need to figure it out.

There was nothing to wait for, as Yalan immediately led the royal guards to the imperial mausoleum. There is no need for any heaven-sacrifice ceremony here. After all... there is no precedent for this so far, so there is no corresponding ceremony at all.

Obviously the only person who could dig up the imperial tombs was the emperor at that time. Who would dare to dig up the imperial tombs except the emperor? But no one of the previous emperors would dig their own ancestral graves. What was this for? So the current situation is really an unprecedented first.

Yalan didn't say hello to any ministers or the like. On the one hand, they were definitely opposed to it, so she didn't bother to argue with them. On the one hand, does your ancestral grave have anything to do with you? So he took the people directly to the imperial mausoleum.

The imperial mausoleum of the Holy Empire of Yilan is still very large. The main body is a large air-raid shelter-like place, which can really be used as a temporary shelter.

This imperial mausoleum has been added to and built many times. After all, when it was first built, I didn't expect it to be passed down to so many generations. As it stands now, the scale is enough to last another hundred or more generations without running out of room for people.

This place is not the kind of dark and humid place in the impression. It can be said that the overall ventilation environment is quite good. After all, the corpse will turn into a mummy in the end. This ventilation system is quite awesome and can be said to be condensed. The product of the essence of architecture in this world.

No kidding, this place can even be opened directly as an attraction, and it is estimated that it can charge a lot of ticket money. Of course, in fact, no one is allowed to enter the imperial mausoleum, except for members of the royal family.

Walking all the way in, most of the entire imperial mausoleum is filled with gorgeous sculptures and murals, engraved with the life of the royal family buried next to it. Linton also visited this beautiful place for a while, after all, it was indeed his first time here.

"This is it." Yalan led the team to Damian's coffin. She had watched her brother's coffin being delivered here before.

Linton also looked at it. The coffin was inserted vertically into the wall. There were very few sculptures, murals and the like around the coffin on Damian's side. After all, the other party didn't do anything. There were no people in their twenties. On the other hand, the grave of my old father-in-law Wigley next to it looks very impressive.

How did Linton recognize that this was Wigley's tomb? There was a life-size sculpture in front of the coffin next to it. The mural on the wall next to it should depict some kind of battlefield scene. It was obviously some battle led by his old father-in-law. It seems that my old father-in-law is indeed one of the better emperors in the past.

At this time, Yalan had ordered the royal guards to start digging the coffin. Linton walked to his father-in-law's pavilion and took a brief look at the things placed on the altar-like platform under the sculpture.

"What's wrong?" Yalan came over and asked, probably noticing something strange about Linton.

"Tell me, who sent these flowers?" Linton pointed to the flowers on the table and said. Although most of these flowers have dried, and some people even don’t come out, they are obviously still a little too fresh. Due to the ventilation environment of this place, flowers would probably turn into dried flowers within a day if left here. So although these flowers look like they are almost turning to gray now, Linton estimates that they were put there in the last few months. .

Linton also saw it when he came in. There was nothing like this on the altars in other tomb areas, so it was obviously impossible for this flower to be placed under the care of the imperial mausoleum maintained here. In other words, someone must have paid homage to his old father-in-law recently.

But this is an imperial mausoleum, and ordinary people cannot enter. Only members of the royal family can come in to worship. Who could this be?

"Oh, I remembered." Yalan was a little confused at first, but after thinking about it for a while, she understood, "Didn't I hear that Jorah came to the imperial mausoleum before? It must be her."

"Jorah?" Linton heard Yalan mention Jorah's name, and he also remembered it. I remember that Garsain said before that he had been practicing holy practice and traveling for a while. After he came back, he felt that his wife Jorah had changed a lot. Linton even joked that she had been cuckolded or something.

At that time, Linton and Yalan also investigated what Jorah was doing, and then found out that the other party often went to the royal tomb during that time.

You said you went there once to pay homage, but Linton remembered that the other party came four times in a short period of time. This was definitely not an ordinary defeat.

At that time, Linton also wanted to continue to investigate and see what the other party was doing. But after that, Qiao La never came to the Imperial Tomb again, so naturally it was impossible to know what she was doing in the Imperial Tomb.

Yalan didn't want to question Jorah face to face. After all, they just felt that Jorah's behavior was a bit strange, just in case they really missed their old father and went to worship him a few more times. It's okay to doubt the other person privately, but if you say it out loud, it will hurt your feelings.

Linton now also knows from Yalan that Jorah has not been to the imperial mausoleum recently, so the previous matter can only be said to be settled. Yalan has not continued to ask people to investigate Qiao La recently. After all, this is her biological sister, and she still does not want to doubt the other party emotionally.

Originally, this matter had been forgotten, and Linton didn't even remember it. But this time when he came to the imperial mausoleum, the matter was mentioned again.

"You said... if there is no body of your brother in this coffin..." Linton pointed to the coffin next to him that had been carried out by the royal guards.

"..." Yalan naturally understood what Linton meant immediately. If it is true that there is no body of his brother inside, it means that someone stole Damion's body. So who do you think the prisoner is?

Although there is no one in the imperial mausoleum now, there is a whole circle of guards outside. The only people who can come in are obviously the royal people, and the one who has come in recently is naturally his sister Jorah, the eldest. of suspects.

What's more, the time the other party frequently comes in and out is also very suspicious. Although it took some time for the man calling himself Damian to appear over there, but including the time to prepare for the rebellion, this is really correct. And Jorah's behavior of never coming to the imperial mausoleum can be explained naturally. This purpose has been achieved, why is she still here?

In other words, if her purpose was just to worship, it would be impossible for her to suddenly come in and out of the imperial mausoleum several times with high frequency, and then suddenly stop coming again. It really doesn't make sense. But if their guess is anything to go by, it certainly makes sense.

Yalan's face looked a little ugly. This was not what she wanted to see. Obviously she still didn't want to believe that these things had something to do with Jorah, so as her last hope, she looked at the coffin next to her.

"Open the coffin." Yalan took a breath and said. If Damian's body is still there after the coffin is opened, then everything will be easy. But if it disappears, things will go in a very bad direction.

Following the Queen's order, several royal guards worked together, and the coffin here opened in response.
