While Man Tianyun was slowly falling asleep, Shen Tianfeng hurried to Wang Lou Tai. His face, which was always calm, was now filled with unconcealed anxiety. Mo Xuanqing saw the face of Shen Tianfeng, and quickly woke up Man Tianyun who was resting his head on his lap. Being woken up, she was actually not very happy. But apparently, she herself felt that something was not right. Man Tianyun sat up straight and ordered Mo Xuanqing to leave Wang Lou Tai. He left, leaving only her and Shen Tianfeng.
"What's up? Your face doesn't look good."
Man Tianyun tightened his delicate eyebrows. She looked at Shen Tianfeng's face, and silently assessed her heart. Shen Tianfeng has followed her for a long time, and he is also a person who rarely lets himself get into awkward situations. Perhaps, something really serious happened that could make someone like Shen Tianfeng unable to keep his composure.
"The nun from the holy mausoleum came to report that someone broke into the holy mausoleum and massacred a bunch of people there. Only now can they rush to the capital to announce it."
As soon as the words came to his mouth, Man Tianyun could not keep her calm appearance. The phoenix's eyes widened, anger making them bloodshot. She quickly stood up and walked away from Wang Lou Tai. The Holy Tomb was infiltrated by someone else, she couldn't believe what she had just heard. The holy mausoleum is where the father and mother rest, and it was built with all of Man Tianyun's resources and wealth. Now, that place was invaded by others, which really made her unable to calm down.
Shen Tianfeng hurriedly caught Man Tianyun, he quickly ordered the people to prepare the carriage. At this time, Man Tianyun would definitely want to go to the holy mausoleum to check, and he did not stop her. How important is the citadel to Man Tianyun, Shen Tianfeng is not ignorant. So he didn't want to stop her. At the most, he and Mo Xuanqing will protect her properly.
By the time Man Tianyun arrived at the holy mausoleum, it was already night. The carriage stopped in front of the entrance, letting her step out of it. The Holy Tomb was originally located in the deep forest, with no passersby. The absence of people is like that, but this place was built by the head princess, who still retains some dignity. But now, there are only corpses lying around. But inside, the landscape is also much more desolate. Man Tianyun couldn't stand up straight, she could only hold onto Mo Xuanqing who was standing next to her, trying to walk slowly inside.
There weren't many people in the holy mausoleum either, only a few people were alive trying to clear a battlefield with corpses lying on the ground. When they saw Man Tianyun, they also stopped for a moment to bow to her and resume their unfinished business.
"The main hall. Take me into the main hall."
Man Tianyun trembled and said. Mo Xuanqing helped her step into the main hall of the holy mausoleum, also where the emperor and fairy queen slept their eternal sleep. Fortunately, this place has no trace of a break-in. Man Tianyun breathed a sigh of relief, she was only afraid that even this sanctuary would be violated by others. Light a stick of incense for the father and mother, she took a deep breath and straightened up to go outside. This holy mausoleum is not only a place that Man Tianyun dedicates to worshipping the deceased but also a place to hide many of her secrets. It seems that the person who really broke into this place is not aiming for the treasures that were buried with the deceased, but is trying to expose the secret of Man Tianyun.
"Shen Tianfeng, have you found out who is behind?"
Man Tianyun took a breath of air, trying to calm his trembling self. She just needed to know that her parents' graves weren't affected, and that would be fine. Shen Tianfeng looked at Mo Xuanqing standing, perhaps, his presence made it difficult for the two of them to talk. Mo Xuanqing also knew what he meant, he turned around and left, so that Shen Tianfeng and Man Tianyun could talk freely. When he was gone, only Shen Tianfeng helped Man Tianyun sit down on the chair, took off his cloak and put it on her. Although Thien Do is already in the summer, the citadel is in the deep forest, it will be much colder at night.
"Currently, I am letting a few people search through the remaining traces. Rest assured princess."
"It has to be found as quickly as possible. Otherwise, what I've done all these years will be discovered by Hengren. Until then, it's very difficult to be able to tidy everything up. For the important books, you send someone to the head of the princess. Also, mobilize human resources, and rebuild the holy mausoleum. This is where my parent rest, can't be left like this. It's sleazy!"
Man Tianyun's phoenix eyes showed fatigue. Shen Tianfeng was observant, he immediately told Mo Xuanqing, who was waiting outside, to bring the head princess back to take care of him. Before sending her away, Shen Tianfeng did not forget to leave a sentence with Mo Xuanqing.
"Take the head princess back to the mansion, and immediately send someone to protect her."
In fact, Mo Xuanqing was a little confused, about why Shen Tianfeng said these words to him. The head princess has a powerful bodyguard selected from the imperial army. Why is there a need to appoint someone to protect Man Tianyun? It's a lot of things. However, Mo Xuanqing did not reveal what he thought to the outside, his time in the princess's residence was still long so that others could not be suspicious. Because with just a little doubt, he would no longer be able to stay in the princess's residence, but instead, death would greet him.
Early the next morning, outside the princess residence were several carriages. Inside each carriage were the books that were transported back from the holy mausoleum. Mo Xuanqing, who was serving Man Tianyun in Wang Lou Tai, was also attracted by the bustle outside the princess's residence. He caught a glimpse of Shen Tianfeng asking the female servants in the palace to bring a lot of books into Man Tianyun's study. What are those? Why does the head princess have to hide them in the shrine? Intuition told Mo Xuanqing, those books contained content that was not trivial at all.
Only a few days later, to be exact, Mo Xuanqing was once again summoned to the palace by the emperor. Prime Minister Li Yan told him, the princess is planning to take the throne, she is intending to overthrow the power of the emperor so that she can easily hold power. At first, Man Hengren did not believe it. This position of him, is because of the royal sister's help that he can have what he is today. If he had given the power to him, why would the royal sister want to kill him to gain power? But when Li Yan showed Man Hengren a letter, inside the letter mentioned that Man Tianyun wanted to gain control of the imperial army, which made Man Hengren not dare to believe his eyes anymore. Having the right to control the army means having half of the power, as long as Man Tianyun wants to, she can overthrow the emperor to take power.
"You are in the princess's residence, watching the queen's every move. More importantly, you must quickly gather enough evidence. Whether the royal sister intends to overthrow me to usurp the throne or not, there must be sufficient evidence. Although I do not believe that the royal sister can betray me, there is nothing to prove that the royal sister is pure."
"I understood."
Mo Xuanqing knelt down, he received a new order from the emperor. It seems that this time, the trust that the emperor has in the eldest princess, has really been shaken a lot.
