Datang: Longevity for Thousands of Years, Exposed by Xiao Sizi

Chapter 38: According to the ancestral teachings of the tomb raider, Qin Changye’s tomb must not be robbed!
Li Junxian took a deep breath and replied, "Your Majesty, in addition to learning that he is Zulong's teacher, I also got an important piece of information."

"His surname is Qin."

"As for the full name, I don't know, and neither do the descendants of the Meng family."

"He is so mysterious. There is no trace of him in history. Although the Meng family knows about the old man, their understanding is limited."

"There are many things and deeds of the old predecessors that have never been known to the world."

Qin….
Li Shimin nodded and silently memorized the name.

at this time.

Just as Li Shimin was about to speak, a Jinwu Guard walked in.

He came into Taiji Palace without informing anyone, which only meant one thing.

What he was going to report was related to Xiao Sizi!

Recently,

The only matter concerning Princess Changle and Xiao Sizi does not need to be reported.

But it was obvious that it was impossible for Princess Changle to come in the middle of the night. Of course, it was also possible that Princess Changle had a sudden illness or her condition had worsened, but the probability was too low.

This Jinwu Guard arrived.
Li Shimin couldn't help but stop talking, and the same thing happened to Li Junxian.

One king and one general,
They all looked at this Jinwu Guard.

The Jinwu Guard lowered his head and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Your Majesty, Han Fuyin has brought Cao Kewei, the descendant of the tomb-grabbing lieutenant, to the imperial city!"

Li Shimin's eyes were shocked when he heard this.

What he was about to say was related to the second possibility, that is, Xiao Sizi was not taken away by the old senior, but was in other branches of the ancient tomb.

Now that the descendants of the tomb-raiding lieutenant have arrived, they can discuss it together with the second possibility!

"Quick, please come in!"

Li Shimin said quickly.

"Subordinates take orders!"

The Jinwu Guards took orders and slowly retreated.
.
….…….….….….
Outside Tai Chi Palace.

A young man who was obviously dressed in street clothes. If someone knew him, they would say that he was sloppy.

But at this moment,
There was only endless awe and worry in his eyes, and he was extremely serious.

All because of,
He has arrived at the imperial city! And in front of the palace of the current emperor Li Shimin!

In his life,

You have never been to the Imperial City, so you are not qualified to come to the Imperial City, let alone meet Li Shimin later.

How could a common man not be afraid when he was summoned like this?
"Han Fu Yin, what does His Majesty want to see me about in the middle of the night?"

Cao Kewei was a little panicked.

Even though I had prepared myself mentally for the journey, I still couldn't stop shaking before arriving at the palace.

after all,

Imagination and reality are different.

When you have been living in an ordinary place and suddenly one day you come to the most magnificent place in the world, how can you not be panicked?
When people in later generations arrived in a big city for the first time, they were filled with fear or panic, not to mention the even less knowledgeable ancient people.

now.

Just as Han Fuyin was about to speak, Cao Kewei quickly said, "Hey, Han Fuyin, let me make it clear in advance that I really haven't robbed any tombs recently!"

"I didn't rob the previous dynasty, and I dare not rob the present dynasty. I definitely didn't rob the relatives of your Majesty. If the tomb of your Majesty's relatives was dug up, it was definitely not me!"

Cao Kewei quickly distanced himself from the matter.

In his opinion,

What relationship does a commoner like him have with Your Majesty?
It's nothing more than something related to the cemetery.

Han Min heard this and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. I asked you to come here today because there is a tomb... I want you to join me in tomb robbing."

Cao Kewei looked suspicious: "Then you can come to me or your people from Jingzhao Prefecture as usual. Why do you have to come to the palace in the middle of the night?"

"This must be an urgent matter, so why would you call someone so late at night? What tomb can't be called back the next day? Unless you have dug up the tomb of your Majesty's relatives and angered the Emperor."

Han Min rolled his eyes: "You have a good imagination, and it's also very reasonable, but I really invite you to participate in the tomb robbery tonight." "The reason why it's not me who invites you, but your majesty, is because this matter is closely related to your majesty."

Cao Kewei's eyes widened when he heard this: "It's closely related to His Majesty? This...what's going on? Can Han Fuyin tell me something?"

Han Min wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he thought that if Cao Kewei talked nonsense at that time, it might affect him, so he leaned over to remind him: "I heard that it is related to an important person, who seems to be a nobleman from the pre-Qin period. His tomb is extremely complicated and strange."

"At present, His Royal Highness Xiao Sizi has disappeared in this ancient tomb. Your Majesty is in such a hurry, I think he wants you to help find the whereabouts of His Royal Highness Xiao Sizi in the ancient tomb."

After the words fell, Cao Kewei suddenly realized: "So that's it."

After hearing what Han Min said, he was not so worried anymore.

At this time,

The Jinwu Guard came over and gestured to the Taiji Palace: "Lord Cao, His Majesty invites you."

Cao Kewei nodded: "Okay."

He walked slowly towards the Taiji Palace.

When we entered the Taiji Palace, we found that it was extremely magnificent and several times more beautiful than the outside.

"Tsk, I can be considered a person who has seen the world."

Cao Kewei was amazed.

His steps were a little slow, as if he was looking around.

The Jinwu Guards behind him did not urge him either.

Because he knew about the ancient tomb, he understood what was going to happen next, and perhaps in many places he would need to rely on the young man in front of him.

Finally.

Cao Kewei walked up to Li Shimin, and the Jinwu Guard retreated.

"Your Majesty, I, Cao Kewei, greet you!"

Cao Kewei didn't know any etiquette, so he just bowed to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin nodded: "I heard that you are a descendant of the tomb raider?"

Cao Kewei replied: "That's right, our ancestor Cao Zhang was the eighteenth tomb-raiding lieutenant personally appointed by the late Emperor Cao Wei!"

He answered with great pride.

The glory of his ancestors is the only thing he can be proud of in his ordinary life.

I just told those people in the market about my ancestor's reputation, but they didn't believe it and mocked me for saying my ancestor was a tomb raider? Then my ancestor was the King of Wei, etc.

Speechless.

"The eighteenth..."

Li Shimin was thoughtful.

After thinking about it, he looked to the side.

Li Junxian understood and walked out and said, "Mr. Cao, I am so presumptuous to invite you here tonight because I want to ask for your help with something. If it is done..."

He was still talking.

Cao Kewei interrupted, "Want to help rob the tomb? Find the whereabouts of Little Sizi?"

Li Junxian was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "Yes, it seems that Han Fuyin has told you a lot, and there is indeed a tomb that he would like you to help explore."

"After the task is completed, Your Majesty can promise a great reward."

Cao Kewei had worked with the court before and knew that the court was generous and would not delay, so he smiled and said, "Okay! No problem!"

"But there are some tombs that I cannot rob. That is the ancestral teaching passed down by our ancestors."

Li Shimin became interested: "What is it?"

Cao Kewei stretched out his hand: "The ancestral teachings of the Cao family, and even the descendants of other tomb-raiding lieutenants, clearly stipulate that the three major tombs cannot be robbed."

"The first is the late emperor of Cao Wei, the second is the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, and the third is the most mysterious and dangerous tomb, the tomb of Qin Changye, the national teacher of the Qin Dynasty!"

boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Shimin's pupils suddenly shrank.

Qin Changye? Could it be... him?
