Chapter 428 Thousand Years of Blood and Tears (Subscription Request)

Wu Xiaoqian smiled disapprovingly.

"Xiao Jiang, your hypothesis is very romantic and poignant, but I suspect that is not the case. Otherwise, why would the face of the female corpse be covered with a thick layer of cotton gauze?"

As she spoke, she lifted up the upper body of the female corpse, leaned down, and observed the occiput on the back of the female corpse's head. The smile on her face quickly disappeared.

"You see, there are marks of blunt force blows on the back of the female corpse's head, her fingers are damaged, and there are still scratch marks on the corresponding side panels of the coffin. All these indicate the pain and torture she suffered before death."

"Based on these signs, a more reasonable guess is that this woman didn't want to die at all, but was forced to bury her master. First she was given poison, and she struggled to die. Then she was hit hard on the back of the head, knocked unconscious, and forced into the coffin. ”

"The poor woman was tortured for a while. She woke up in a daze, suppressing her headache, and found herself lying in the coffin. She tried to cry and struggle, but was pressed against her mouth and nose with a pillow, suffocated to death, and finally wrapped up. Put on a layer of gauze and it will stop.”

"Oh my god... this is so tragic!" Jiang Feng's face turned green, "Sister Wu! Just listening to your unemotional and objective description, I feel so miserable and afraid of having nightmares about this woman who was brutally tortured and killed. , how painful it must be!”

"Not only is she painful, but she is also full of resentment." Wang Daqing said with a cold face, "No wonder she couldn't be freed after her death, and her resentful spirit turned into a banshee!"

"Anyone who was tortured like this during his lifetime will die with his eyes open." Ma Tao said sympathetically, "It's a pity that times have changed. She crawled out of the coffin, but she couldn't find anyone to take revenge on, so she could only vent her anger on unrelated passers-by like us. resentment."

"You think this is miserable enough?" Wu Xiaoqian shook her head slightly, her eyes cold, "In fact, the abuse and torture this woman suffered during her lifetime was probably even worse than when she was dying. It was so miserable that it was beyond your imagination."

"Sister Wu, this woman is buried here, and her status should be higher than the ones buried outside the tomb. Not to mention the wife of the owner of the tomb, she is at least a concubine. How could she be treated so cruelly?" Goofy asked incomprehensibly.

"It's a long story to tell in detail." Wu Xiaoqian sighed.

"We all know that the owner of this ancient tomb is a high-ranking noble official from the Jin Dynasty, and he is probably a clan member of the Wanyan family."

"Then you are looking at the attire of this female corpse when she was buried. It is clearly a Song Dynasty dress, especially her feet, which more clearly reveal her identity."

"Sister Wu, what happened to the female corpse's feet?" Gao Fei couldn't see anything unusual.

"If you look carefully, the toes and arches of the female corpse have severe deformities. This is obviously not a natural deformity, but a sequelae caused by foot binding." Wu Xiaoqian explained.

"Noble women in the Jin Dynasty did not have the custom of foot-binding, but this female corpse has the characteristics of foot-binding. It can be seen that she is not a Jin person, but most likely a Northern Song Dynasty emperor who was captured in the second year of Jingkang."

"Emperor Ji" is the nickname of the princess during the Huizong period in the late Northern Song Dynasty.

"The Jingkang Incident marked the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty. At that time, the two emperors of Huizong and thousands of their royal family members were taken prisoner and escorted to Beijing by Jin soldiers, including Huizong's twenty-one daughters. Most of them were forced to marry The nobles of the Kingdom of Jin are concubines.”

"The names of these empresses and concubines of the Zhao family living in other places can be found in ancient books such as "Song Prisoners' Records" and "Kaifeng Mansion".

"For example, after arriving in the Kingdom of Jin, Zhao Jingu, the concubine of Emperor Qingfu, was assigned to be raised in a laundry house by Jin Taizong Wanyan Wu Qimai because of her young age."

"In the thirteenth year of Tianhui, Jin Xizong Wanyan Quan came to the throne. In May of the same year, he summoned Zhao Jingu from the laundry room to the palace and named her his wife. In February of the second year of Tianjuan, he named her concubine. Finally, in February of the first year of Huangtong, she was named a concubine. Promoted to second concubine."

"There is also Zhao Jinnu, the concubine of Emperor Rongde, the second daughter of Huizong. She first married Cao Sheng, the general of Zuowei, and remarried Wan Yanchang, King of Lu of the Jin Dynasty after the Jingkang Revolution."

"In August of the second year of Tianjuan, Wan Yanchang was executed by Jin Xizong Wan Yandan. Zhao Jinnu was immediately called into the palace and was named the son of a good family in February of the first year of Huangtong. In March of the second year of Huangtong, he was named his wife. ”

"These two are considered to have a relatively good old age. The fate of more Zhao and Song princesses was much more miserable. Once golden, they were reduced to being worse than the meanest prostitutes. Many of them did not even have the chance to live to adulthood and were tortured to death. "

"For example, Zhao Fujin, the Maode Emperor, suffered a lot of torture after being captured. She was severely tortured and died in a miserable way, which is outrageous!"

Wu Xiaoqian shook her head and couldn't bear to elaborate.

"I originally thought that the Song Dynasty princess in the coffin was buried together as the head wife of a great nobleman of the Jin Kingdom. I even imagined a romance novel in which she was tortured first and then sweetened. After your analysis, it turns out that she was a poor woman who was forced to be buried. people……"

Jiang Feng said with complicated emotions.

"The disgrace of Jingkang has not yet come to an end..." Wu Xiaoqian sighed and said with deep emotion: "The Emperor Ji in the coffin was born in troubled times and experienced many sorrows. The tragedy of her life was the country's hatred and family feud nine hundred years ago. Miniature. Is there any romance in this ancient tomb? It’s all evidence of the loss of mountains and rivers.”

Gao Fei nodded sympathetically and said to Wu Xiaoqian:

"Sister Wu, now is not the time to cry for the ancients. Let's leave quickly."

"Help me close the coffin." Wu Xiaoqian said softly.

"China Lu Chen's pain has long been turned into the dust of history. Today we lift the veil that has covered this face for nearly a thousand years. I hope she can breathe a long sigh of relief and sleep peacefully."

Gao Fei walked to the coffin of the Empress Zhao and bowed respectfully.

"Your Royal Highness, may your soul rest in peace."

Then he used his arms to close the coffin lid, turned around and walked towards the secret door leading to the end of the ancient tomb.

In the tomb passage behind the secret door, bloodstains appeared on the ground again.

This shows that this is the correct direction to track Hong Debiao, and it also makes everyone worried about Mr. Wu who was shot and injured.

They walked forward along the tomb passage for about ten minutes.

Hu Zi, who was exploring the way at the front of the team, stopped and looked back.

Gao Fei took a look and found a dark pit in the middle of the tomb passage.

Shine the flashlight down, the first thing you see is the collapsed stone slab, which has cracked into several pieces, and the spears standing upside down at the bottom of the pit can be vaguely seen in the gap.

"The pit has obviously been trampled by Hong Debiao and his party, and they left in a hurry without covering it up."

Gao Fei took out a fire ladder from the storage space of the star disk, set it on the pit, went over first, and then called his companions over.

After everyone crossed the pit, Gao Fei put away the ladder and continued to explore with Hu Zi.

Not long after, they came to the depths of the tomb passage, and the stone door opposite was already open.

Gao Fei replaced the batteries in the flashlight for the third time, adjusted the brightness to the maximum, and shone it into the spacious hall opposite the stone gate.

The dust on the ground left messy footprints.

It can be seen that Hong Debiao and his gang had been here not long ago.
