It was early morning in Kyoto, and Bai Xianyu had nothing to clean up, but she had to carry some equipment necessary to pretend to be a man. Considering that the imperial tomb must be a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, she not only checked and checked the appearance, but also put these equipment I also made a camouflage to make sure that I can't see the original appearance, so I put it in the bag with confidence.

  When she came to the imperial mausoleum in a carriage, she felt like the dust had settled.

  Ever since the news was intercepted in Linzhou, she had always had a shocking idea in her mind. At first she thought it was unbelievable, but now that she thinks about it, it is very possible.

   And all of this, whether you can get an affirmative answer depends on the people in the imperial tomb.

  Xiao Zheng sent Bai Xianyu off the carriage, and consciously picked up her burden.

  A court lady stood at the gate of the huge imperial mausoleum surrounded by nine dragons and saluted them.

   "This is the Master of the State Teacher, right?" She smiled and stepped forward, "The servant girl is the maid who is in charge of arranging your residence, just call me Chunqiu."

  Bai Xianyu nodded, "Excuse me."

  Chunqiu smiled slightly, and made a gesture of invitation, "National Teacher, please come this way."

  Bai Xianyu followed her in.

According to the news brought by Shengmen, the imperial mausoleum is divided into three outer floors and three inner floors. Most of the outer three floors are relatives of the emperor who have made mistakes, or people who have invited to guard the tomb, because they can only enter and cannot exit. , like confinement, most of the people living in the outer three floors are haggard, and they can't see the glamor of the past. She has a detailed map of the outer three floors in her hand.

   As for the third floor, the only thing that can be known is that the first floor of the three inner floors is mostly occupied by maidservants served by the late emperor, the second floor is occupied by concubines, and the innermost floor is the mausoleum.

  If he performed the ceremony of praying for blessings, he would naturally pray to the ancestors and ancestors for future generations. He could use the name of the national teacher to go directly to the third floor, but he would never stay for a long time in between.

  Besides, according to the importance that Emperor Wuxuan attached to the imperial mausoleum, there must be many people guarding her when she saluted, and she would be watched back after she saluted. Once she made any changes, it would be reported to Emperor Wuxuan's ears.

   "May I ask my lord, how long will this ceremony of praying for blessings take? This old slave will let you know and arrange meals for you properly."

  Bai Xianyu really wants to say one month, the longer the better, but there has never been a blessing ceremony that takes so long, and it is easy to be suspicious if it is too long.

  She pondered for a moment, "Half Moon."

  Based on her memory, after walking back and forth for seven days, she can probably find out all the routes on the third floor. In the remaining seven days, she needs to find a way to get the news she wants.

"The old slave knows." Chunqiu's back is a little swollen, but his age can't be seen from his face, "Master Guoshi will take a short rest, and the servant will send you lunch in a while, what else do you need? Tell the servants that the servants have obeyed the emperor's order, and dare not be negligent in the slightest."

  Bai Xianyu nodded, tapped his fingers on the table, "After lunch, can you take me around?"

  Chunqiu paused, "Where do you want to go shopping?"

   "I heard that there are many forbidden places in the imperial tomb. I am afraid that I will accidentally break into it and offend the holy majesty. If you take me around in advance, I can avoid these things if I think about it."

Chunqiu smiled dumbly, "Don't be nervous, Master Guoshi. There is no forbidden area on the outer layer. You can go wherever you want. Here, you can't get in without a key. Even the old man wants to get in. Ask for instructions."

  Bai Xianyu paused for a moment, then continued: "That's good."

   "However, Master Guoshi will live here for half a month, and it must be a bit boring. If you want to walk around, it is also possible. After you have eaten later, the servant will take you around."

   "Thank you very much."

   "Master National Teacher, you are welcome."

  Xiao Zheng covered his face all the time, tossing himself like an assassin during the day, Chunqiu glanced at him, and said politely: "Lord National Teacher, this is your bodyguard?"

"Um."

"The Imperial Mausoleum is heavily guarded. No one will dare to harm the Imperial Mausoleum." She said: "According to the rules, the Imperial Mausoleum cannot bring anyone with you. If you need guards, there will be guards from the Imperial Tomb to protect you." .”

  Bai Xianyu was just about to find a reason to let Xiao Zheng leave. Hearing what Chunqiu said, she didn't hesitate for long, "It seems that I can only be left alone this time."

  Xiao Zheng had already prepared, Xie Xingyun had already explained a lot to him last night, so he was very respectful, "Yes."

   "Then you can leave with me, so as not to disturb the rest of the national teacher." Chunqiu smiled, quite kindly.

"good."

   "Wait." Just as Xiao Zheng was about to step out of the threshold, Chunqiu suddenly stopped him again, "Before leaving, I have to check the things in the bag."

  Xiao Zhenggang put Bai Xianyu's baggage on the chair, and a box of clothes. Apart from these things, there was nothing else.

  For some reason, Xiao Zheng's heart beats a little faster. He has experienced life and death more than once by Xie Xingyun's side, and he has a premonition of the coming danger beyond ordinary people.

  Bai Xianyu thought she would stop checking, but she didn't expect to be here waiting for her.

"My lord, don't blame the servants for being abrupt. The servants also act according to the rules. If someone brings forbidden items in the burden of the lord, and implicates the lord, then the lord will not be able to argue? It's not as good as it is now. Open them one by one in front of the servants, and there is no problem after inspection, even if someone deliberately framed them in the future, the National Teacher will not be afraid."

   "Since you are acting in accordance with the rules, how can you refuse as a grand teacher?" Bai Xianyu raised his lips, "Chunqiu can do whatever she wants to investigate."

Chunqiu looked at the raised lips of the young man who was probably not yet as weak as the crown, inexplicably felt that his lips were much prettier than the lips of most noble girls in Kyoto, the deep red was like lip balm, and it looked tight, but unfortunately the facial features were too wimpy Nothing special, otherwise with the title of young national teacher, I am afraid that he is not inferior to Prime Minister Xie.

   "Yes, thank you for your understanding."

  Chunqiu unpacks the package in front of Bai Xianyu and Xiao Zheng.

  Xiao Zheng is carrying some spices, things for divination, and weird things in the baggage that he is carrying. If he doesn’t know something in the Spring and Autumn Period, he will ask Bai Xianyu about it.

  Bai Xianyu answered one by one, but Chunqiu still remembered them one by one. If there were no accidents, she might go to ask for verification. Now this is remembering the things in her baggage.

Bai Xianyu is very sure about her disguise. For ordinary people, disguise is just for fun, just to find a novelty, but for her, it is the life of her family, not only her own life, but also the life of the whole family. The lives of everyone in the house.

  So since three years ago, she has been thinking hard that many powerful masters can't see through her disguise, let alone a maid in the imperial tomb.

   Sure enough, Chunqiu finished the inspection quickly, bowed down and said respectfully: "There is no problem, Master Guoshi, I offended you."

"nothing."
