The full moon hung high, and the clear light fell on the mausoleum, illuminating the silence and desolation.

Lin Xing sat on the carriage, watching the guards of the Prince's Mansion searching for the secret passage along the mausoleum, and couldn't help but observe their expressions in the moonlight.

Zhou Yan was standing next to her, leaning against the carriage with his arms folded. He looked up inadvertently and saw Lin Xingzheng staring at the guards with burning eyes, biting his lower lip unconsciously.

Because he was so absorbed in looking at it, there was a tooth mark on his pinky lips under the moonlight.

The words Bai Bi Wei Xian came to mind unconsciously.

Zhou Yan looked startled, slowly looked away, and stood up straight without haste.

Sensing the movements of the people around her, Lin Xing turned around and asked, "What's wrong with the Crown Prince? But what's wrong here?"

Even the sound is so clear.

Zhou Yan shook his head and glanced at her face casually, "It's cold, you'd better go in."

"It's not too cold at night, I can bear it." After saying that, Lin Xing glanced at the soldiers over there who were still looking for the secret passage, moved closer to Zhou Yan, and lowered her voice and said, "Just now I

Observing the people in the Prince's Mansion, I saw that their expressions were as usual, so I guess the spies are not among these people."

After all, it used to be data. Lin Xing turned the expressions of those people into data, analyzed and compared them one by one, and quickly came to a conclusion.

"So you're helping me." Zhou Yan raised his eyebrows with a look of understanding on his face.

It was obviously an ordinary sentence, but when it came out of his mouth, it was a little more tender and tender.

Lin Xing turned her head and looked at him, half-smiling but not smiling, "The Crown Prince is the supporter of the Zhao family, so of course I have to hug the Crown Prince tightly."

She won't worry about what Zhou Yan has in mind for her like she did before. This guy is just talking about it.

Zhou Yan knew what she was implying, but he was angry and annoyed in his heart. He was about to ask her to see if he only dared to say but not do anything, when Zhang Ping hurried over.

"Your Majesty, we found the secret passage!"

Lin Xing was shocked and immediately jumped off the carriage. Zhou Yan raised his hand to help her, but saw that she had already stood firm and couldn't help but smile.

Lin Xing didn't pay attention to his expression. She just looked at Zhang Ping and said, "Can someone go in to investigate? Is there anything found in the secret passage?"

At first it was just suspicion, but now that she has actually found the secret passage, Lin Xing is still quite surprised.

At the risk of angering Tianyan, building such a large mausoleum must contain more than simple things.

"I have sent someone to investigate. After touching a stick of incense, the prince and Mrs. Zhao can go down." Zhang Ping said truthfully.

Before the time was up for burning the incense, the investigating soldiers below came up with torches, unable to hide their shock, and reported: "There are two mountains of gold and silver below, and I can't determine how much silver there is even if I am humble!"

The guards of the Prince's Mansion have also seen the world, and if they can make him look so shocked, then the money below will only be more or less.

Thinking of this, Lin Xing turned to look at Zhou Yan, who immediately took the torch from the guard's hand, asked Zhang Ping to lead the way, and went to the tomb himself.

Lin Xing followed Zhou Yan and carefully carried her skirt to the grave.

Although she didn't know what an ordinary mausoleum looked like, she also knew that there should be inner and outer mausoleums, but when she came down from this tomb, it was empty.

At this time, three mountains of gold and four mountains of silver were neatly placed in the empty tomb.

Lin Xing showed a look of shock like that of a scouting guard. It was not until she heard Zhou Yan laughing at her and saying, "Tuck your chin back." She finally came back to her senses.

In addition to the hills made of gold and silver bricks, there are also many boxes containing silver coins and jewelry. The total amount of money and pieces can equal the fiscal revenue of the Daqing Dynasty for a year.

These are Zhou Yan's original words.

Although Lin Xing didn't know how Zhou Yan knew about the Daqing Dynasty's financial income, it didn't stop her from showing surprise.

"Where did so much silver come from?" She picked up a gold brick and weighed it. It was very heavy.

Being able to melt gold into bricks of this size is obviously not something that a small workshop can do.

She turned over and over to look at the gold brick, and sure enough, she saw two small words on the bottom corner of the gold brick.

"Manji." She read out the two words and asked, "What does this mean?"

Zhou Yan also saw the word "Manji" from where she pointed. Lin Xing didn't know, but he knew very well that "Manji" refers to the golden number "Manji" in the capital.

However, the Manji Golden Account was not opened by a local in the capital. It is said that the manager behind the scenes was an orphan from the Nanzhao Kingdom.

When he was in the capital, he also checked it out of curiosity, but unfortunately the shopkeeper was too hidden, so he couldn't start, so he didn't go into details because it would have alarmed the snake.

"It's the name of a gold company." Zhou Yan looked down at the gold bricks in his hand, his brows knitted together, "It's just that this gold company is rarely used by others. Could it be that this is the territory of a gold company?"

"

But if it is really the place where Manji Jinhao hides gold, what is he doing hiding so much gold? Why is it so close to Tangling Pharmacy?

Although Yuzhou is not far from the capital, there are places near the capital that are more convenient for full-level gold players to store gold and silver. Why do they have to go all the way to Yuzhou to build a mausoleum that exceeds the regulations?

In an instant, many doubts came to mind.

Zhou Yan did not go into details, but ordered people to clear away the traces of their visit so that no one would notice. Then he left ten people nearby to watch while he took Lin Xing back to the city in a carriage.

"Aren't you going to report it to His Majesty, Your Majesty?" Lin Xing was very curious on the carriage.

Not to mention the stolen gold and silver treasures in the mausoleum, the mausoleum alone that exceeded the regulations was enough to make the emperor angry. Wouldn't it be easier to disturb the muddy waters of Yuzhou and investigate the affairs of the Zhao family?

"There are always craftsmen who build mausoleums. We did not see corpses in the tombs, which proves that those craftsmen were released. Then we only need to follow the clues and follow the craftsmen to find out. There is no need to tell His Majesty and make the emperor angry."

Zhou Yan closed his eyes and explained.

"This matter has something to do with the person behind Dongling Pharmacy..." Lin Xing stopped mid-sentence and stared at Zhou Yan with burning eyes.

Even she could guess that the mausoleum might be inseparable from Dongling Pharmacy. Why did Zhou Yan pretend not to know?

"Lin Xing," Zhou Yan called her name, slowly opening his eyes, his eyes were colder than the full moon outside the window, "Even if I want to touch the prince, it would be difficult for me to reach the sky. The emperor only treats him.

I am slightly afraid, but I do not want to depose the prince. There is no need to mention these words in the future."

In the past, she had always felt that Zhou Yan did not take the prince into his eyes, but now Lin Xing realized that it was not that he had not taken him into his eyes, but that he could not be shaken at all.

The Crown Prince and His Majesty are the foundation of the country. How can they be touched by a mere Prince of Chang'an?

So the more this happens, the more long-term it is.

And Zhou Yan came all the way to Yuzhou and started from Dongling Pharmacy for the same reason.

Because of this, he asked the soldiers to clean up the traces in the tomb, so as not to disturb the prince at this time.
