She married a dying prince and she won three babies.

They took out the treasure map again and looked at it.

There are only some lines and a few mountain names on the map, but the mountain name marked is not Jiulong Mountain.

But it is Lingshan.

Lingshan?

"Your Highness, does Lingshan mean the mountain where the imperial mausoleum is located?" Shangguan Ziqi suddenly had an idea.

Looking at the names of several surrounding mountains, they are different from the names of the mountains near Jiulong Mountain, making it difficult to be sure.

"It should be. We stood on the highest peak and looked around. There are indeed several mountains. Their positions are similar to the ones marked on the map."

"So the treasure is really in Jiulong Mountain?"

"Almost right." The prince felt that they had found the right place.

But it is difficult to determine the specific location.

“We have changed different positions and drawn ten pictures.

Let's go back and research it. It will probably take some time to find the exact location."

The prince looked at the peaks in the distance again. They matched the ones marked on the treasure map, only the names were different, which made him even more certain that they had not found the wrong place.

"Ah."

While they were searching everywhere in the mountains, five people dressed as hunters also appeared in the mountains.

They are no different from ordinary hunters.

Shangguan Ziqi and his companions also met one or two of them.

The two people they met saw so many of them wandering around in the mountains, so they pretended to be scared and left quickly.

But seeing that they were just ordinary hunters, Shangguan Ziqi and the prince didn't care too much.

The troops returned to the city.

After seeing them leave, the five hunters quietly left Jiulong Mountain and returned to the provincial capital.

Came to a relatively remote courtyard.

"Master, we are back." A man named Ding Jian saw Ye Yong basking in the spring sunshine in the yard and stepped forward to bow.

"Well, let's talk inside." Ye Yong turned his wheelchair in a different direction.

Ye Quan immediately pushed Ye Yong into the inner room.

"Go ahead." Ye Yong said calmly.

“Master, we will dress up as hunters and follow the prince and his men to observe their actions.

We found that they always circled around the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty, and they had blueprints in their hands.

Because it was too far away, we couldn't see clearly what was drawn on the drawing.

But judging from the Crown Prince and Prince Rong's behavior of checking different places in the mountains, they might be looking for something.

But I haven’t found it yet.”

Ding Jian reported calmly.

"Oh? Looking for something?" Ye Yong couldn't figure it out for a moment. "Could it be that they want to take the imperial tomb of the previous dynasty?"

"Although they circled the imperial mausoleum several times, they didn't find the entrance. I'm not sure if they're planning to attack the mausoleum."

"The imperial mausoleum has always been filled with traps. No royal family of a new dynasty has ever dared to touch the mausoleum of the previous dynasty. This is also an unwritten rule. Is the Wei Dynasty really that poor?

No matter how poor you are, you will never touch the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty.

If they did so, once the matter became known, it would naturally be recorded by some moralists and would be talked about by future generations.

Moreover, the Emperor of Wei could not guarantee that the imperial power of Wei would last forever.

It would be interesting if the Wei Dynasty was destroyed in the future and the later dynasties dug up the Cao family’s imperial tombs like they did.

Therefore, the Cao family will not leave any trouble for themselves." Ye Yong analyzed.

He was right. Later dynasties generally did not dig up the tombs of their predecessors. This was done for the world to see, and also to prevent their own tombs from being dug up by future generations. The mechanism inside was mainly to prevent some illegal tomb robbers.

Moreover, the laws of every dynasty defined tomb robbers as the top criminals.

"Then what are they looking for in the mountains?" Ye Quan frowned and thought.

Several people fell into deep thought for a moment.

"Did you hear what the Crown Prince and Prince Rong said up close?" Ye Yong couldn't guess what they were looking for for a moment and wanted to know more.

"No, we didn't dare to get close at all. There were more than fifty of them, and all of them were good soldiers. They thought we were hunters, so they didn't do anything to us. But if we got a little closer to them, we would be driven away." Ding Jian said truthfully.

They tried to get closer, but failed.

“Did they take the locals up the mountain?”

"Yes. He's an elderly man."

"Go and find out if this old man has been sent home."

"Yes. Master."

Ding Jian immediately went out to inquire about the matter.

They returned at dark, but unfortunately, the old man was taken to the inn where the prince was staying and did not return home.

Ye Yong was not disappointed, as this was within his expectations.

That night, Ye Yong tossed and turned in bed.

What are the prince and others looking for here?

Be puzzled.

Something that can make a prince of a country come out to look for it personally must be very valuable.

What could it be? And it's near the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty.

The next day, several subordinates wandered around the city and learned that the Princess Zhenguo wanted to vaccinate all the people in the prefecture with cowpox vaccine.

At the same time, he also heard that Princess Zhenguo had given the prefect of Fengrong City a good idea, a wine-making technology that could increase the income of the people.

When Ding Jian told Ye Yong these two pieces of news as gossip, Ye Yong sighed that Princess Zhenguo was really good at making money.

He knew that Princess Zhenguo had opened many pharmacies, and he had bought those pills and taken them, and the effects were indeed good.

It is no secret that Princess Zhenguo is a money-grubber.

Wealth, money!

Ye Yong suddenly had an idea.

Could it be that the prince and his men came here just for wealth? The imperial tombs of the previous dynasty will not be moved, but if there is wealth hidden here, they will definitely move it.

Now that the Wei treasury is so empty that a rat could get in, it is only natural that the emperor would set his sights on the wealth left over from the previous dynasty.

This guess, once ingrained in my mind, could not be shaken off.

Regardless of whether his guess was right or not, he had to create some trouble for the prince and the others, making it harder for them to achieve their wishes, which could also be considered as a way to vent his godfather's anger.

He was incompetent and could not avenge his godfather, but his godfather wanted him to be alive, so this was the only thing he could do.

"Ye Quan, call everyone here." Ye Yong made up his mind.

"Yes, master."

The five subordinates came to the inner room one after another.

Several people secretly discussed the next course of action.

Only seven people want to stir up trouble.

The prince, Shangguan Ziqi and others returned to the inn and placed all the drawings on the table one by one, looking at the imperial tombs of the previous dynasty and the mountains within a radius of thirty miles from different angles.

But after studying it for several days, I still couldn't figure it out.

Yu Yuanzheng also studied each picture, but couldn't see anything.

The place can be confirmed, but the exact entrance cannot be found.

What's the point of this treasure map? It just leads people here, but doesn't clearly tell us where it is.

Do we have to dig three feet deep to find it?

No, you can’t find it within three feet. Even if you dig two meters, you may not find it.

Everyone was at a stalemate.

It’s on Jiulong Mountain, but I don’t know its exact location.

That night, the couple lay in bed, neither of them could sleep.

"Husband, could he be inside the imperial mausoleum?" Yu Yuanzheng asked speculatively.

"Impossible, the imperial mausoleums have always been meticulously designed and built by the royal families of each dynasty.

If you hide the treasure inside, there is a possibility that it will be destroyed.

So I won't do that." Shangguan Ziqi was very sure.

"That's really hard to guess." Yu Yuanzheng thought it would be easy to get the treasure with the treasure map, but it turned out to be a big mystery.

"Do you think the royal family of the previous dynasty might have some words to remind future generations that were not passed down?" Shangguan Ziqi thought of a possibility.

"That's possible. You are a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, but it's a pity that you know nothing." Yu Yuanzheng sighed.

“My great-grandmother’s grandmother probably didn’t know either.

When the previous dynasty fell, the palace was captured by Emperor Canglan. The last monarch committed suicide in the imperial study, smashing the imperial seal to the ground.

Now we know the one he broke was a fake.

But he was reluctant to smash the real jade seal, as it had been passed down for many years.

Then it is very likely that he just wants to keep this secret hidden forever.

He didn't want to benefit the later dynasties, nor did he want his descendants to restore the country.

There is only one princess left, and she doesn't have the ability. Only by burying the secret can this only bloodline survive safely."

"Now that you and the king know that you are descendants of the previous dynasty, do you have any other ideas?"

Yu Yuanzheng turned around and faced Shangguan Ziqi, wanting to see any changes in his expression.

Power makes people greedy.

She wondered if her husband would be tempted by this.
