Chapter 121: What to Do?

As an ordinary grave keeper, He Wu's income is extremely limited, and he can only get some barely subsistence grain and a few copper coins every month, so much gold, let alone take, even see, he has never seen it.

He Wu only felt that his throat was dry, and he swallowed hard, although his eyes showed a greedy light, he didn't dare to reach out and catch the gold.

Cao Liang said lightly: "Today, the ancestral grave of the Sima family has been dug up, don't you have the slightest responsibility as a tomb keeper?" The people of the Sima family will definitely be angry with you and kill you to vent their anger, your current situation is actually one foot in the ghost gate. Take all this gold, leave here, and stay incognito, which is enough for you to live comfortably for the rest of your life, where to go, think about it yourself, right? ”

The steward with the knife was also threatening He Wu: "If you don't tell the truth, believe it or not, I'll cut off your head with a knife." ”

He Wu cried with a sad face, more ugly than his dead father and mother, although he was a house slave of the Sima family, but he didn't have a good impression of the Sima family, the ghost errand of guarding the tomb, generally high-status subordinates don't have to do it at all, only their low-level house slaves will be sent here.

If he really knew, he would definitely not hesitate to say it for the sake of this gold.

It's a pity that he really doesn't know, so even if he is greedy for some gold, he doesn't dare to think about it.

"Childe, the villain has no lies, the tomb is indeed Mrs. Xiahou, buried that day, it is where the villain is located, if the villain tells a lie, the sky thunders, and he will not die!" He Wu hurriedly swore a curse, for fear that Cao Liang would not believe him.

Cao Liang's face was difficult to look at, looking at He Wu's situation, it didn't seem like he was lying, he was a lowly subordinate, and he shouldn't be able to threaten and lure without being moved.

Could it be that what is buried in this tomb is really Xiahou Hui? Could it be that Xiahou Hui really died of illness, not Sima Shi poisoned him?

History actually played such a big joke on itself!

Xiahou Xuan walked over, his face was extremely ugly, after all, this result was completely unexpected, how should things end when they got to this point?

"What should I do?" Xiahou Xuan asked Cao Liangdao.

Cao Liang frowned, and said: "I never believe that Ling Mei died of illness, Sima Lao Thief is so treacherous, maybe before carrying Ling Mei's body to the cemetery, he has already transferred the bag, and the bones in this coffin are not Ling Mei's at all." ”

Xiahou Xuan did not refute, for so many years, he always believed that Sima Shi poisoned Xiahou Hui, this kind of thinking has long been ingrained, and now if someone tells him that you misunderstood Sima Shi and did not kill your sister at all, Xiahou Xuan will definitely be anxious with him.

But believing is one thing, evidence is another, now the grave has been dug up, the tomb has also been dug up, a white bone has been found, and there is no problem after the inspection, Xiahou Xuan looked confused, and he really didn't know what to do.

Cao Liang is also very big now, originally nine out of ten things, but now it has become like this, I have to say, Jiang is still old and spicy, Sima Yi's calculations, I am afraid that there is really no one in the world, six years ago, he had blocked the way for others to vainly open the coffin for autopsy.

A corpse, from burial to decay, is only a matter of ten days at most, as long as Sima Yi can ensure that nothing happens in these ten days, everything will be fine in the future.

Such a special thing is that there is no proof of death!

Cao Liang suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness, if this was the case, he would really be able to take the Sima family.

Wait, Cao Liang suddenly thought, if this tomb is not buried Xiahou Hui, then where has the real Xiahou Hui's body gone?

There is no cremation custom in this era, even if it is to kill the enemy's soldiers on the battlefield, it will also use the method of burial, and the Sima family uses the means of transferring flowers and trees, and in Xiahou Hui's grave, an irrelevant woman is buried, so Xiahou Hui's body will definitely not be abandoned by them, but buried somewhere else.

The relationship between Xiahou Hui and Sima Shi is actually very good, otherwise, Xia Hou Hui would not have given Sima Shi five daughters in the nine years after his marriage. Such a high productivity proves that in the past nine years, Sima Shi's feelings are still relatively single-minded, and he favors Xiahou Hui alone.

Xiahou Hui was poisoned for what reason, this has always been a mystery in the historical circles, the Jin book is very vague, "not Wei Zhi's pure minister", not a pure minister, must be an anti-minister, obviously Xiahou Hui knew some secret things about the Sima family, such as raising the dead in the shadow, so Sima Shi killed Xiahou Hui in order to avoid leaking secrets.

But no matter what the ending is, Sima Shi still has an emotional foundation for Xiahou Hui, after Xiahou Hui dies, Sima Shi no longer has to worry about revealing his rebellion ambitions, how to bury Xiahou Hui, Cao Liang feels that he should not be so excessive to abandon Xiahou Hui in the wilderness, right?

Cao Liang looked around, at this time, the sky was already bright, the sun was rising in the east, and the ancestral cemetery of the Sima family was shining brightly.

A cemetery of Sima's family is very large, and there are at least hundreds of tombs, and the tombs of the ancients are extremely exquisite, and the lineage and the collateral lineage must not be confused.

Xiahou Hui's tomb is more special, in the center of the entire cemetery, but it maintains a considerable distance from the surrounding tombs, in the upper position of her tomb, is the tomb of Jingzhao Yin Sima Fang, and the position of Sima Yi's brothers is reserved below, and Xiahou Hui will definitely be buried with Sima Shi in the future, so it proves that this location is also the final destination of Sima Shi in the future.

However, Cao Liang noticed that at the edge of the cemetery, there are many graves without tombstones, these graves are far from being as neat and intact as the large tombs in the central area, and many of the graves look just a small mound.

Obviously, the owners of these tombs were of much lower status during their lifetimes, and their security could not be compared with that of the large tombs in the central area of the cemetery.

Cao Liang pointed to these graves and said to He Wudao: "Who is buried in those graves?" ”

He Wu glanced at it, with a hint of contempt in his eyes, and said: "Those graves are buried by some inferior people, or some children of the concubines who have committed crimes and have been removed from the family, otherwise there will not even be a tombstone." ”

Cao Liang nodded, and asked again: "Then among these tombs, which ones were buried at the same time as Mrs. Xiahou?" ”
