Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 309
The Eight Banners also have talents.

Hatu is a talent, but also an honest person.

This person has been working in Jingling for nearly thirty years, and he still inherited his father's career, because his Ama is also a tomb guard.

The two generations of father and son did the same job-the deputy internal management leader, that is, the official responsible for waterproofing and drainage of the mausoleum.

In the words of Jia Liu's previous life, he should be the manager of the engineering department.

As early as when Hatu's father Zalmu was in office, he had already discovered that there was a water seepage problem in Jingling Mausoleum. However, the problem was not serious at that time, not long after Emperor Sheng Zuren was buried.

After Hartu appointed his father as the manager of the engineering department, the problem of water seepage became serious.

For this reason, Hatu had reported to the seven ministers in charge, but none of the ministers in charge paid attention to him, and even thought that Hatu was an alarmist.

Even if the water seepage problem was confirmed by "scientific" means under the leadership of Hatu, none of the previous seven ministers in charge dared to report the matter to the court.

Because the seepage of the imperial mausoleum shows that the choice of auspicious place is not good. In terms of geomantic omen, it will not only directly damage the Qing Dynasty, but also affect the inheritance of the royal family.

Furthermore, the auspicious place of the holy grandfather was chosen by the old man himself, so if the matter of water seepage is exposed at this time, does it mean that the holy grandfather was confused back then?
Who dares to speak?
No one dared to take responsibility, and this matter became an open secret in Jingling. Even officials from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rites knew about it, but the emperor did not.

The Hatu people are soft-spoken, even if they are worried that the water seepage in the mausoleum of Emperor Zuren will endanger the country and the country of the Qing Dynasty, but what can they do if no one listens to him?
But this old mausoleum guard has a stubborn head, no matter whether the minister in charge listens or not, believe it or not, he will report every time he comes.

It's the same this time, but I don't know that the new Director Jia Jia is different from the previous ones. He is a true loyal minister who is dedicated to the Qing Dynasty.

Manager Jia would do anything that might endanger the country and the country of the Qing Dynasty. He couldn't tolerate it.

"There is such a thing!"

As the new minister in charge of guarding the mausoleum, although Director Jia is young, he is obviously much more courageous than the previous ones. Just as Hatu said a few words, he slapped Director Jia's table and couldn't wait for him to go to the mausoleum with him immediately. Check it on the spot, and say that if the situation is true, it must be reported to the court, and personnel will be arranged to deal with it decisively.

Hatu didn't expect that the new minister in charge would pay so much attention to the water seepage problem he discovered, so he hurriedly took Director Jia to investigate it excitedly.

Delwan and the others had no choice but to scold the three generations of Hatu ancestors several times.

Isn't this old man looking for something to do when he has nothing to do?

Whether it seeps or not, is it none of your business?
Even if it is filled with water, is there any precedent for opening the emperor's underground palace in all dynasties?

Therefore, reporting is tantamount to not reporting.

So, why bother to look for trouble.

However, Master Manager Pidianpidian followed Hatu, and they could only keep up.

On the way, Jia Liu asked Ha Tu to explain what he learned in detail.

According to Hatu, when Emperor Shengzuren sent the minister of the mausoleum to choose this place as an auspicious place, he discovered a major flaw.

Jia Liu hurriedly asked: "What problem did you find at that time?"

Hatu pointed to the direction of the underground palace in the distance and said that this place was actually a deep pool.

"The local people say that this deep pool is connected with the Longmen Gate opposite Changrui Mountain by an underground passage connected by water, so the pool is often haunted by dragons. In the past, whenever there was a drought, the local people would set up tributes here to pray for rain, which is said to be very effective. "

Jia Liu didn't believe the dragon's theory, and Hatu himself didn't believe it, because after extracting the water pool, he didn't find a secret opening connecting to the dragon's gate.

"Since there is a water pool where the underground palace is located, why choose this place as an auspicious place?"

Jia Liu doesn't know Fengshui, the place where the coffin is placed is a deep pool, even if it is filled with soil, it seems unlucky from the point of view of Fengshui.

Although it is dry for thousands of years and wet for ten thousand years, half a year is not dry or wet.

But no matter from which angle you look at it, it is impossible for Emperor Sheng Zuren to think that he will sleep in the water for tens of thousands of years.

Hatu said that Emperor Sheng Zuren was surprised after hearing the report of the minister of Xuanling, so he came to check it in person, but after seeing the lake, he didn't say a word. This place is built as an auspicious place for ten thousand years.

For what reason, no one knows.

But on the day when the mausoleum was built, the water in this pool dropped by half. The officials and craftsmen who built it at that time were all overjoyed, saying that it was the holy ancestor and the real dragon who showed his holiness and shocked the dragon from far away.

Jia Liu didn't believe Jiaolong's theory, nor did he believe Kangxi's Zhenlong theory. Looking around, he didn't find any low-lying signs. It is likely that a large amount of land filling has changed the original appearance of the place.

A group of people walked another stick of incense and came to the location of the underground palace.

Jia Liu had been here before, but after looking around, he couldn't see where the entrance to the underground palace was.I didn't have the guts to learn from Sun Dianying, so I thought about studying the engineering files of that year.

Use science to unravel the mysteries of your mind.

"My lord, look here!"

Hatu cried out suddenly, and Jia Liu hurriedly went over to check, only to find that the area under the soil was covered with moss, and even a unique water plant grew in some places.

Hatu asked Mr. Jia to take a closer look at the color of the seal, and it was obvious that the color below was darker and the color above was lighter.

It's not that the sources of soil are different, but that one contains more water and the other has less water.

In order to prove that what he said was true, Hatu took the chief manager to check many places. In addition to the signs of water seepage at the bottom of the sealing soil, there were also a lot of moss at the bottom of the bluestone brick paving and other places.

All the wooden bottoms of the buildings on the ground have serious moisture.

Basically, it can be confirmed that Jingling is indeed leaking.

In order to confirm, Jia Liu still ordered people to find a shovel, and dug at the edge of the sealed soil, dug down half a knee deep, and found that the hard soil began to turn into soil containing sand and gravel.Digging further down, the soil obviously felt moist in the hand.

If we continue to dig according to the signs, we may be able to dig a well.

Jia Liu didn't know what Kangxi thought to build the tomb on the pool. Even if he could drain the water, the place would still seep.

No matter how good the waterproof technology is, it cannot withstand the invasion of time.

Hatu said worriedly: "My lord, if the underground palace seeps seriously, maybe the coffin of the holy grandfather may already be floating in the water."

"Bold!"

Delwan shouted angrily, telling Hatu not to make alarmist remarks.

Jia Liu looked at Delwang with displeasure: "What if what Hatu said is true?"

"This"

Delwan hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice: "My lord, even if the underground palace sees water, there is nothing we can do about it."

"Why?"

Jia Liu wondered, if there is a problem, just solve it, no matter what the reason is.

The reason Delwang gave was that there has never been a precedent in the history of emperors and concubines to open the underground palace after they were buried, because doing so would destroy the dragon veins, which would be detrimental to the community.

Jia Liu nodded. This is the reason. If the emperor dies first, or the empress dies first, the one who dies later can open the underground palace and put it in.

But Kangxi has been dead for decades, and Yongzheng's mother has also put it in. There is no reason to open the underground palace.

But Hatu retorted: "If opening the underground palace will damage the dragon's veins, wouldn't flooding the ancestors destroy the dragon's veins?"

Hey, this statement is justified.

Seeing that Director Jia Jia was really thinking about this reason, Delwan quickly shook his head: "No one knows the extent of the water seepage in the underground palace. Please open the underground palace just by guessing. The emperor can't agree, unless"

Jia Liu asked, "Unless what?"

Delwang hesitated again and again, and said: "Unless there is a major change in the country, it proves to be related to the seepage of the emperor's auspicious palace."

Jia Liu remained calm after hearing this. Another reason for the great changes in the community is that the world is in chaos.

This creates a causal relationship.

You know, the older Qianlong was more superstitious.

As for things like chaos in the world, Mr. Jia is quite good at it.

Of course, as a nephew and son-in-law, Jia Liu's filial piety to Emperor Sheng Zuren can be learned from heaven and earth.

Therefore, you can't visit his old man secretly.

If you want to enter, you must enter openly.

There are three things to do right now.

The first thing is to make a report to Qianlong, telling him that there is a leak in the grandfather's cemetery.

The second thing is to cause chaos in the world.

The third thing is to get some fresh treasures for the grandpa to play with. The old garbage that has been played enough has to be cleaned up for the grandpa.
