Quick Wear: Random Cheats

Chapter 13 The Princess Takes the Blame and is Granted Death (13)

"Tell me in detail what happened in the garden? What did you do in the garden? Why did the garden suddenly collapse? Such a large area collapsed!"

Even Dong Huaide found it difficult to remain calm.

I couldn't help but roar and question.

Although the garden manager was still a little frightened at this time, he quickly recited the Heart Sutra silently to suppress his panic, then looked at the others and said:

"Butler, I may need to talk to you alone..."

After hearing what he said, Dong Huaide's inner pressure was slightly reduced, because what the other party said undoubtedly meant that he might know what happened in the garden and why it collapsed. It might just involve some secrets of Prince Lu's Mansion, or involve the prince.

It’s not good to say it in front of outsiders.

But no matter what, knowing the reason for the garden collapse is better than being in the dark and knowing nothing.

So Dong Huaide quickly waved his hand, signaling everyone else to leave, leaving only the garden manager alone: "Okay, now you can speak directly."

"Butler, you've only been in the palace for a short time, so you might not be aware of some things. There were originally hundreds of corpses buried under the garden. I went down to check immediately after the garden collapsed, and the corpses disappeared.

Not even a single bone was to be seen.

Although we came in a hurry and did not have time to check the entire garden, it is estimated that the Wangfu Garden must have lost a large number of bones underneath, and it may even have disappeared in an instant.

It will suddenly collapse."

He and his gardeners had been the ones to dispose of and bury the bodies beneath the garden, so he knew exactly how many bones were there. When the garden collapsed, he was worried the bones would be exposed, so he rushed down to check. He nearly fainted after the inspection, as all the bones were gone.

He knew that it was normal for a corpse to rot into bones, but it was abnormal for the bones to disappear without being treated.

In that moment, he really had a lot of associations.

All kinds of ghosts and gods came to mind.

It was only by reciting Buddhist scriptures silently that I was able to calm my mind and not scream or faint.

But to say how calm it is is obviously impossible.

All I can say is that the dead are living a little.

"There are hundreds of corpses buried under the garden? Did the prince do it?" Even though Dong Huaide knew very well in his heart that Prince Lu was absolutely not innocent, he couldn't help but tremble when he heard this number. My goodness, Prince Lu is so brave, he buried so many corpses directly in the garden?
Why didn't he just bury it under his bed?

After being shocked, Dong Huaide finally paid attention to the key point:
"Did it suddenly disappear again? It's only been a short while. First, a pig disappeared, and now all the bones beneath the garden have disappeared. Take your men back and take a closer look. Were those bones stolen and carried away day after day, causing the garden to collapse because there weren't enough bones left to support it, or did all of them vanish in an instant?"

The traces left by the corpses being stolen a little bit at a time day after day will definitely be different from the traces left by the corpses disappearing at once, or being taken away in a short period of time.

If it is the former, then it means there is a traitor in the palace.

The latter is probably caused by ghosts and gods.

The next step is of course to wait, waiting for the garden manager to come up with the final result. Ding Shui, who has collected all the bones, is now a little confused about where to bury them.
Just bury it somewhere.

I feel sorry for them.

Even if they were to bury them separately, there was no way to tell which bones were those of a close confidant and which were those of other victims, let alone accurately identifying which bones belonged to which person. After some hesitation, Ding Shui returned to his coffin, collected all the burial objects, and replaced them with the bones of the baby and fetus.

It was unrealistic to put all the hundreds of bones in his coffin, so he had to put the children's bones first. At least give their bones a place to rest.

As for the remaining bones, Ding Shui brought them to the tomb of Prince Lu. Although Prince Lu was only in his twenties, his tomb had already been built when the construction of the Prince Lu Palace began. Although it was far from complete at this time, the main burial chamber had long been built. After the funeral, the original coffin would be moved to the side chamber next to the main burial chamber for storage.

When King Lu died, his coffin was placed in the main tomb chamber.

Only then will the tomb of King Lu be sealed.

The original body was sentenced to death by the emperor.

She certainly could not enjoy the treatment of a legitimate princess, be buried with the Prince of Lu, or be placed together in the main tomb chamber.

She was allowed to stay in the side room.

That's already a great favor!

Ding Shui's soul came to the main tomb chamber, and he quickly used the super synthesis system and synthetic storage space to open up a new tomb chamber under the main tomb chamber.

Store the remaining bones inside.

Let them suffer some grievances for the time being and continue to be in a lower position. When King Lu dies and is buried here, when there is time, grind King Lu's body into ashes and move them up.

As a result, when Ding Shui left the tomb of King Lu, all that remained in her synthesis storage space was her own body and a pile of dirt and rocks. She selected the soil below the main tomb chamber for synthesis, and the system naturally synthesized dirt, creating an extra space below.

The stones selected are naturally synthetic stones.

After doing this dozens of times, Ding Shui finally opened up a new space under the main tomb chamber of the mausoleum.

But those clods of earth and rocks cannot be left where they are!

It can only be stuffed into the synthetic storage space and taken away.

At the same time, the garden manager Zhao Ya had finished his inspection and quickly told Dong Huaide the results:
"Butler, we haven't found any traces of human activity. The corpses below seemed to have disappeared in an instant without any warning, leaving no trace at all.

If it was stolen by human transport.

There can’t be no bones left.”

If people secretly dig up the bones, there is no way to predict when the collapse will occur, and it is unlikely that the collapse will occur only after all the bones are dug up. For example, it is like a coal mine, which does not mean that all the coal underneath has been dug out.

That's why the mine collapsed.

Many of them collapsed while we were digging!
Even with wooden supports, there's no guarantee of absolute safety or collapse. And there's no sign of human excavation beneath the garden, let alone any wooden supports to prevent collapse during excavation. Combining all the evidence and past experience, it's highly likely that the disappearance of the bones wasn't caused by human intervention.

"Got it, go down and remember to keep it a secret!"

Dong Huaide no longer wanted to struggle. This was definitely related to ghosts and gods. Prince Lu was either suffering retribution, or he had offended someone who practiced unorthodox methods and cursed evil, and they were seeking revenge. And objectively speaking, Prince Lu's current state was completely deserved!
Besides, he is no match for any extraordinary person.

Just report the truth and stop making trouble.

There is no result.
