Chapter 283 (1/2)
”The four princesses came to guard the mausoleum. You should come to see them quickly!”
Outside the carriage, Grandpa Liu shouted at a high voice.
Yuan Fang, the commander in charge of guarding the imperial mausoleum, had already received the news that the princess was coming to guard the mausoleum. Therefore, after hearing the shouting of father-in-law Liu, he immediately led the soldiers to gather around and rush to the mausoleum, knelt down together and shouted:
”Minister and so on, see four Princess highness!”
When the curtain was lifted, Xia Wan'an's delicate face like a work of art appeared in front of the people. At first glance, they were almost suffocated by amazement.
After obtaining the immortal body of the eternal emperor, Xia Wan'an's whole person has undergone great changes from the inside to the outside. Not only her physique has been greatly enhanced, but also her temperament has been refined. She is as noble as a relegated immortal.
”No gift.”
She opened her mouth faintly and looked at the magnificent royal mausoleum in front of her.
Before that, she didn't expect to get such a big reward for signing in at the imperial mausoleum, even greater than the reward for signing in at the Jinluan hall. She felt that she could compete with the strong in the realm of no confusion just by virtue of her physical strength.
”It seems that we should find more important places to sign in in the future. There are many important places outside the palace, no less than in the palace.”
She thought.
Father Liu obviously felt that Xia Wan'an was different from before she got on the carriage, but he couldn't tell what was different. In short, it was very strange.
Is it because she is about to get married, from a girl to a young woman?
This involves grandpa Liu's blind spot of knowledge. He abandoned his inner thoughts and respectfully said to Xia Wan'an:
”Now that the Royal Highness has been sent to the imperial mausoleum, the slaves and other people should return to the palace to be restored to life. When the time limit for Princess mausoleum is full, his majesty will send someone else to his highness.”
Xia Wan'an nodded and watched grandpa Liu and his party return.
In a month, she will go back by herself and don't need others to pick her up.
”The last name will be Yuan Fang, and the post of imperial mausoleum. If the princess asks what she wants, she can tell the end at any time.” Yuan Fang went to introduce herself.
He has been guarding the imperial mausoleum for decades, and has received not more than a dozen princesses and princesses, but he has to admit that the four princesses in front of him are the most fairy like princesses he has ever seen. Presumably, the other party should be one of the most beloved heirs of his majesty?
”Take me to my house first.”
Xia Wan'an said that she now needs to find a quiet place to digest the changes brought to her by the Immortal Emperor.
Then, led by Yuan Fang, Xia Wan'an came to her residence in the imperial mausoleum, an independent tile house made of bricks and stones.
Although this tile roofed house is much simpler than the changmen palace, it is much better than the military camp where other soldiers live. Xia Wan'an is not surprised. Since she came to guard the mausoleum, the accommodation conditions will not be very good.
”Ask your royal highness to have a good rest. Tomorrow morning, you will be ready for your tomb.”
Yuan Fang reminded Xia Wan'an, and then left.
……
Time passed slowly. I saw stars moving in the night sky, and the sky soon passed midnight.
Except for some soldiers on patrol, most of the soldiers in the imperial mausoleum went into the barracks to rest. Everything was quiet between heaven and earth, and the roar of animals could be heard in the distance.
The officers and men in charge of patrolling and guarding are not very vigilant. Some people even doze off because they know that although the imperial mausoleum is built in the mountains, its security is excellent. No thieves have dared to break into the imperial mausoleum for decades. They often just act as facade decoration.
Tonight, however, things are different.
Three dark shadows in night clothes are like ghosts, moving and flashing in the dark, accurately avoiding the sight of every soldier and sneaking into the military camp.
