On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal
Chapter 1524 Zhao Family Cemetery
Yan Ruyu could still listen to the first half of what Zhao Dabao said, but when she heard the latter part about the gates of hell opening, she immediately found it absurd.
Therefore, it can be concluded that regardless of whether the Zhao family has any connection with Mrs. Shi’s affairs, the funeral at this time must be different.
She and Huo Changhe looked at each other.
Zhao Dabao felt something was wrong and said quickly, "Your Highness, Princess, Mr. Zhao has a very high reputation in the village. When he was buried, almost every household sent people to see him off and help. If we force an inspection, I'm afraid things will get out of hand."
I'm not afraid of it getting out of hand, but it will certainly create obstacles.
Yan Ruyu said, "Your Majesty, the most urgent thing is that we must find out where Madam Shi's body is, not confront the villagers."
Huo Changhe nodded and thought for a moment: "That's right, let's wait until we get to the cemetery and see what happens."
"it is good."
Huo Changhe waved his hand, and the people behind him dispersed silently. He gestured again, and one-third of the people were as light as a civet cat, silently blending into the darkness and heading straight for Zhaojiazhuang Village.
The rest of the people, led by Yinding, hid behind the trees on the roadside. Huo Changhe and Yan Ruyu also retreated to the side of the road.
"Zhao Dabao, the three of you follow me."
"Yes."
Zhao Dabao agreed and felt secretly happy.
Being able to serve under the Prince of Zhennan, even once, is a rare and unforgettable experience.
What's more, I just saw the men under Prince Zhennan, they were all so powerful!
One third of the people joined the secret guards and were divided into three teams with the Zhao family as the center. One team investigated the Zhao family, and the other two teams investigated other civilians' homes.
Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe retreated to the woods and waited. Not long after, the funeral procession arrived.
Just as Zhao Dabao said, the number of people and the length of the team were beyond Yan Ruyu's imagination.
The team stretched for at least two or three miles, with people on both sides holding torches, like a winding fire dragon.
In front was the Feng Shui master, wearing a black robe and holding a compass, leading the way. Behind were the nephews and nieces of the Zhao family, some of them were holding banners, and some were carrying something. It was dim and far away, so they couldn't see clearly.
Further behind were filial sons and grandsons, wearing mourning hats, holding something in their hands, and crying continuously.
The entire team was filled with cries of grief, and the people at the back were wiping away tears.
It was also the first time that Huo Changhe had seen such a scene in the village.
"What Zhao Dabao said is true. The Zhao family is indeed very prestigious, otherwise there wouldn't be such a grand ceremony."
"It was all done spontaneously by the people, not by force," Yan Ruyu nodded, "I also hope that this matter has nothing to do with the Zhao family."
Yin Ding came over quietly: "But my intuition tells me that things are not that simple."
Huo Changhe: "..."
Yan Ruyu suppressed her laughter: "Where's Xiaolan?"
Yinding whistled softly. Since there was loud crying outside, he was not afraid of being heard by others.
Xiaolan came over, stood on Yinding's shoulder, tilted her head to look at him, waiting for him to give her food.
"I don't have anything to eat," Yinding cleared his throat, "The princess does. The princess wants to see you for something."
The starling jumped onto Yan Ruyu's shoulder again, with its butt and tail pointed at the silver ingot.
Silver Ingot: “…” So realistic.
Yan Ruyu handed it a piece of dried meat and said, "Let's go check later to see if there's anything unusual over there in the cemetery."
The starling flapped its wings: "Oh my..."
Huo Changhe reached out and pinched its beak: "Shut up, don't let anyone hear it."
The mynah bird looked at him with its eyes rolling around, looking very unconvinced.
When the team was halfway there, Yan Ruyu released the starling, which flapped its wings and disappeared.
Huo Changhe led the crowd and did not wait for the team to pass completely. When they reached the middle, they just followed the roadside and walked forward.
The Zhao family cemetery is very large. Mr. Zhao, who is of great status, had his tomb repaired two years ago and it occupies a good position among the ancestral tombs.
The team stopped at the edge of the cemetery.
The Feng Shui master came forward with a compass, walking and turning, and no one knew what he was busy with.
Uncle Zhao also came out of the team and saluted the people behind him.
"Thank you all for coming to help us so late at night. Let's just stay here. Cemeteries are always unlucky, so as not to disrupt your luck."
"Everyone please go back now. On the seventh day, I will hold a banquet and invite everyone to come and thank you for your kindness."
What he said made sense. There were quite a few members of the Zhao family who came, and there were just too many common people. If they all rushed in, it would be a mess and they wouldn't be able to help at all.
As a result, many people did not step forward.
But they didn't leave, just watched from a distance.
Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe did not step forward, but watched secretly.
Yan Ruyu took out a night vision telescope and observed carefully.
Huo Changhe found it magical. It was the first time he had seen this thing and he looked at it eagerly.
Yan Ruyu took out another one: "Here, use it this way."
Huo Changhe did as she said, looked into her eyes, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "It's so clear. It's so far away and so dark, but I can see it so clearly."
"What is this?"
"Telescope," Yan Ruyu pointed ahead, "Look, where the Feng Shui master is turning is the grave."
"The grave has been dug up. People must have been sent in advance to dig it up." Huo Changhe said in a low voice.
Zhao Dabao was standing nearby, and although he couldn't see, he was able to explain, "Yes, because although the weather is getting warmer now, it's still a bit cold in the wild, especially at night, so we sent people to dig the grave in advance, so as to avoid having to dig it when the time comes, which would affect the burial time."
Yan Ruyu thought to herself, whether it was because he was afraid of affecting the time of burial or for some other reason, it was still unknown.
She looked carefully and saw that the dug area was not very wide, just enough for one person to carry the coffin and walk through.
"For a wealthy family like the Zhao family, I would have thought that the tomb would be particularly spacious, with at least a burial chamber or something."
Huo Changhe was about to speak when Zhao Dabao said, "Yes, the place the princess mentioned was dug up should not be used to store coffins, but a passage."
Yan Ruyu handed him the telescope: "Take a look."
Zhao Dabao was surprised and delighted. He had never seen this magical object before, let alone thought that he could touch it.
He quickly rubbed his hands on his clothes, took it carefully, and started to look at it according to Huo Changhe's posture.
Yan Ruyu reminded: "It's the opposite."
Zhao Dabao turned around anxiously and looked carefully.
As soon as I saw it, I couldn't help but exclaim, what a magical object this is!
Even from such a distance, I could see it so clearly. I could even see Mr. Zhao’s expression clearly!
And the eldest lady of the Zhao family, who was standing next to her, was crying so sadly that her eyes were swollen.
The Zhao family members are all kind and filial.
Seeing that he had been looking for a long time without saying anything, Yinding said unhappily, "Where are you looking? The princess asked you to look at the place that had been dug."
Really, he has never seen or touched this kind of thing, so it’s a good deal for Zhao Dabao.
This guy doesn't appreciate it and keeps looking around.
I really don’t know...what I can see.
Zhao Dabao quickly came back to his senses and looked at the dug area with a red face.
"Yes, that is the passage. The coffin bearers will carry the coffin in through that passage."
