Zhenfubao waved his hand and the warehouse was full of grain, and the whole family regretted it

Bai Wanwan asked, "What exactly is this place? Why is Queen Yuwei here?"

Xiao Cao sighed and said, "Do you know why we chose this place when we chose the imperial palace?"

Bai Wanwan shook her head and heard Xiaocao say:

"This place was where the dragon vein was located. If we build the imperial palace here, it will ensure that our Great Qi dynasty will be passed down forever, and our descendants will be safe and secure, no matter how many generations we pass it down.

But there is one bad thing, it does not require ordinary sacrifices, but must be nourished by the people who are the most beloved by each generation of emperors."

Bai Wanwan was stunned. Gu Sinian shook his head and said, "Ridiculous, impossible. My father is..."

Xiao Cao looked at him and said:

"Can you guarantee that your father doesn't have it? And it must be something that the emperor holds dear to his heart.

Be it the queen, the princess, or even a favored concubine.

Only by offering something that the Emperor is most reluctant to part with, and placing it beneath the dragon vein, can the restlessness be quelled."

"What if you can't bear to let go?" Bai Wanwan couldn't help but ask.

The Imperial Master sighed:

"Reluctant? Then the dragon vein will become turbulent. Didn't you know that in recent years?

The drought has been going on for many years and has not been resolved, leaving people displaced.

That’s why I went there.”

Gu Sinian sneered, "This is all nonsense. To think that a country has to rely on a woman's life is the most ridiculous thing in the world."

The Imperial Master turned to look at Gu Sinian and said, "I'll take you to see your mother. Your mother is here too."

Bai Wanwan and Gu Sinian followed him to the side hall. Gu Sinian pushed the door open and saw a woman lying on the ice bed.

Bai Wanwan's nose felt sore. Gu Sinian stared at her blankly, tears slowly streaming down his face.

The national teacher said calmly:

"Your mother was sent here after she passed away.

For so many years, I have been trying to figure out how to solve this situation, which is called the Dragon Trap."

Gu Sinian laughed so hard that tears came out:

"Are these innocent women going to die just because of this?

I don't want to, trap the dragon? I don't believe in that. If you want to trap me, or take the life of my beloved, forget it!

I will poke a hole even if I die."

Bai Wanwan frowned and said, "National Master, is there no other way?"

The Imperial Master said calmly, "Not yet, unless the next Emperor cuts off all feelings and love."

Gu Sinian sneered and said, "If you've cut off all feelings and love, then what's the point of sitting here? Wanwan, let's go back first. It's cold here and it's easy to catch a cold."

The two returned to the Taiji Hall, only to find that the Imperial Master had also followed them. He looked at Gu Sinian and said, "I want to talk to you alone."

Gu Sinian nodded, and the two stayed alone for a long time before the Imperial Master left.

Bai Wanwan looked at Gu Sinian's expression and asked, "Brother Sinian, what did he say to you?"

Gu Sinian forced a smile and said, "It's okay. I'll make you some ginger soup. You can go to bed early after drinking it!"

Bai Wanwan nodded. Today's events were quite shocking.

This method is somewhat similar to driving piles into the bridge. Some bridges are difficult to repair, or strange things always happen, so the method of driving piles into the bridge must be used.

It means burying living people under the bridge, saying that this is the only way to make the bridge stable.

At that time, she just thought it was nonsense and it didn't make sense.

But people in ancient times were very superstitious about these things, especially emperors, who believed in them.

Bai Wanwan drank the ginger tea and fell into a deep sleep. She slept until noon the next day. Then she saw Bai Song sitting next to her and said, "I have a slight fever, but it's nothing serious. I don't know where I went yesterday."

Bai Wanwan stuck out her tongue and said, "Brother, it's okay, I'm hungry..."

Bai Song gently tapped her head and said, "We're having hot pot for lunch today. The Eighteenth Prince has already prepared it. We can go eat now."

When Bai Wanwan walked into the front hall, she saw several brass charcoal pots on the table, bubbling with energy.

"What kind of soup is this?"

Gu Sinian smiled and said:

"Didn't you say the other day that you wanted to use old yellow cattle bones, add angelica and wolfberry, and let it sit for three hours. You said that this soup would be delicious and warming.

I've been stewing it all morning according to your method. Do you think it tastes good?"

Bai Wanwan took a sip and felt the rich and sweet taste right at her mouth, and her stomach felt warm.

"It's quite fresh and delicious. Brother Si Nian, you are amazing. I can use this as the soup base in my hot pot restaurant later." Bai Wanwan said.

Gu Sinian smiled and said, "This is very expensive."

Bai Wanwan said, "If you want something delicious, you can't be too frugal. I haven't eaten hot pot for a long time. I'm going to eat now."

Only then did Bai Wanwan realize that the other end of the stone table was piled high with dishes.

After dinner, Bai Wanwan continued to stroll around the Tai Chi Hall.

The Tai Chi Hall is divided into the Yin and Yang Halls. You can soak in hot springs in the Yang Hall, but the Yin Hall is very cold. Once you walk into the Yin Hall, you will find it is very chilly.

She pulled her cotton-padded jacket and said, "It would be nice to come to the Yin Palace in the summer. It's a bit cold here in the winter."

Eunuch Sun beside him laughed and said:

“I usually stay in the Yang Palace in the winter and come to the Yin Palace in the summer.

But many people feel that the Yin Palace is too gloomy and don't want to come!"

"Will King Qi come?" Bai Wanwan asked.

"His Majesty the King of Qi rarely comes here. Usually, it is the masters of each palace who come here." Sun Quan said softly.

Bai Wanwan sneered and said, "He feels guilty, so naturally he doesn't dare to come here."

Sun Quan coughed and said, "Wanwan, be careful in the palace. The mouth can cause trouble."

There was nothing particularly interesting about this Yin Palace, and there was no grass growing anywhere. Bai Wanwan took a look around and decided to go back.

Turning around, she saw a dozen men in black rushing towards her. Sun Quan screamed loudly, "Wanwan, be careful..."

Those dozen or so men in black came prepared and should be death squads.

They covered their faces with black scarves, and the daggers in their hands flashed coldly.

Her eyes flashed, and she pulled out the black pistol from her waist with her backhand.

Three crisp sounds cut through the air, and the three men in black at the front fell to the ground.

A man in black whispered tremblingly: "What kind of hidden weapon is this? I didn't see her raise her hand, how could she..."

Another man in black growled in the Hierophant language, "Don't just stand there! This is a death order from the organization. We must kill her! If you fail, you'll die if you return!"

Bai Wanwan didn't move, but turned her wrist slightly. Fire flashed from the muzzle of the gun, and a few more gunshots were heard. The four men in black who were rushing in the front fell down instantly, and the daggers fell to the ground with a clang.

She turned her head to look at Sun Quan who was hiding behind the pillar and said, "Grandpa Sun, go call the guards."

Eunuch Sun finally came to his senses and said, "I'll... I'll call the guards right now! I won't let these bastards get away!"

After Bai Wanwan saw Eunuch Sun stumble out, she turned to look at these people and said, "Tell me, who is your master?"
