Chapter 98
Wei Yingning was not polite, held his face, took the initiative to kiss his lips, tasted the sweetness, and felt like a galloping horse, eager to kiss him, until he was so hot that he couldn't breathe and refused let go.

"A-Ning..." Li Mu finally took a breath, but was held down by her again.He only felt that she was too domineering this time, like revenge.

That night, even though he was injured, Wei Yingning did not spare him lightly.

Before dawn the next day, he took care of taking medicine for his wounds, and then went to the morning court as usual.

When he got up, Wei Yingning woke up, but she ignored it, opened her eyes, closed them, and fell asleep again.

At dawn, Li Chongjian woke her up.

"The guards in the concubine's garden in Piling are more relaxed during the daytime than at night." He told her, "If you want to go to the tomb, why don't we go at noon?"

"Is it so fast?" Wei Yingning was sleepy, sitting on the edge of the bed unable to cheer up.

"I need to prepare some things, they will be used in the tomb." Li Chongjian said again.

"Okay." Wei Yingning agreed.

"The most important thing is to bring Ah Man, she is very strong."

"Ah."

For this matter, you can only bring Ah Man with you, the others are unusable and can't be used either.

What Li Chongjian needed from Wei Yingning was nothing more than a shovel, a set of ropes, and two knives.

After Ah Man had prepared all the things that should be prepared, the two of them and one ghost set off.Near noon, Fang went to the concubine's garden to sleep in the mausoleum.

According to Li Chongjian's inspection, there are the least guards on duty during lunch, and it will be convenient for him to avoid them and enter the imperial concubine's bedroom.

Wei Yingning and Ah Man hibernated nearby and waited until noon when the guards took over before taking any action.

The process was tortuous and shocking, if it wasn't for Li Chongjian's preparations, and his mana blessing, it would be really difficult to enter the concubine's garden.

The mausoleum of Concubine Gao is located in the center of the first row, and it is made of bricks on the top of Baocheng.Wei Yingning saw it and was stunned on the spot.

How to get in here?
"Look carefully." Li Chongjian led her to the back of the mausoleum, pointing at one place.

Wei Yingning moved closer, and after a closer look, he found that the joints of the bricks and stones showed signs of loosening.

"Gao Guifei's mausoleum was probably built by someone deliberately leaving this opening. Judging from the joints around the bricks and stones, people have entered and exited." If he hadn't discovered this secret, Li Chongjian wouldn't have let Wei Yingning think so hastily. He brought Ah Man to the tomb alone.

He also said: "Last night I went in to have a look. This place of bricks and stones has only three floors inside and outside. When you enter, there is a corridor leading directly to Concubine Gao's mausoleum."

Ah Man had already taken out his knife and began to work on the bricks.

Wei Yingning was not idle either. While scratching the cracks between the bricks and stones with a knife, he discussed with Li Chongjian: "Who would do this kind of manipulation on Concubine Gao's tomb? And why?"

"Let's go in and have a look." Li Chongjian said, "Maybe we can find the answer inside."

Everything is a mystery.

It took Wei Yingning and Ah Man a lot of effort to open the bricks and stones, both of them were sweating profusely.

Entering the corridor, they piled the bricks and stones back one by one from the inside to prevent anyone from finding out.

The corridor is not long, but it reached a stone gate in only three or four zhang.Wei Yingning groped for a while, and soon found the mechanism to open the stone gate.

Behind the stone gate is the mausoleum of Concubine Gao Gui.

One side of the sarcophagus is quietly located in the center of the mausoleum, illuminated by orbs at the four corners, and there are many funerary objects inside.

The two opened the coffin again under Li Chongjian's command, and it took a lot of effort that Wei Yingning regretted not leaving the matter to Li Mu himself.

After spending so much effort, I just want to thank myself for his future, why bother?Not worth it!

As the lid of the sarcophagus moved away, the two and one ghost were dumbfounded!
Where is the body of Concubine Gao in the coffin?There was only a thick yellow liquid in the coffin, accompanied by a smell of herbs and an unpleasant fishy smell that almost overflowed!
Both Wei Yingning and Ah Man were terrified.

Li Chongjian looked very knowledgeable, and guessed: "It may be the medicine to prevent the corpse from decaying, and the corpse should be inside."

"Then I have to fish it out from here?" Wei Yingning said and looked at Ah Man.

"Huh? Ma'am? This yellow thing is not poisonous, right?" Ah Man also had goose bumps all over his body.

At this time, Wei Yingning felt that something sticky was stepped on his feet, so he raised a torch to look carefully, and found that it was the liquid in the coffin, but it was almost dry, not like the mucus in the coffin.

Then look around, there are also, but not many, only around her feet are the most.

She took out the shovel, probed into the coffin, pounded it back and forth a few times, finally shook her head at Li Chongjian, and said, "There is no corpse."

"I think it was transported out by someone." Li Chongjian guessed again, "What is on the ground is the mucus that dripped when the corpse was lifted."

Things got weirder and weirder.

Who would steal the body of Concubine Gao?

Frowning and thinking, Wei Yingning had already taken out the shovel, unaware that there was a cloth bag hanging on the shovel.

"Ma'am, what is this?" Ah Man asked, pointing to the cloth bag.

Wei Yingning glanced at it, but didn't think it was strange, "It should be the belongings of the imperial concubine, and they were buried together... There are still many inside."

As she spoke, she was about to throw the cloth bag wrapped around the shovel back into the coffin.Because he didn't shake her off a few times, he muttered: "I don't know what this light and fluffy thing is."

"Since it's caught, why don't you open it and have a look?" Li Chongjian was a little curious when he saw the bulging inside the cloth bag.

Wei Yingning then put the cloth bag on the ground, and asked Ah Man to cut open the gold thread at the mouth of the bag with a knife.

A roll of parchment was revealed.Ah Man carefully pulled it out without getting any mucus, then unfolded it, glanced at it and said, "It's the topographic map of our Great Zhou..."

Wei Yingning took it over, but when he looked around, he was surprised and said, "It's actually the same as the map in Ping Ninghou's hand!"

"Ma'am, aren't the topographic maps of our Great Zhou all the same?" Ah Man scratched his head.

"It's different... There are many special marks on it." Wei Yingning was surprised, and felt that the mystery was getting bigger and bigger.

She put away the parchment and planned to leave.

But at this moment, Li Chongjian suddenly said anxiously: "Someone is coming! Come in!"

"Strange! There is such a tunnel built in this tomb? Hey! Zhang Huai, how do you know?"

Hearing someone's voice outside the stone gate, Ah Man looked around and found that there was absolutely no place to hide, he couldn't help jumping anxiously.She suppressed her voice, looked closely at Wei Yingning and asked, "What should the eldest lady do now?"

"Go in." Li Chongjian looked at the sarcophagus, and only had such a bad idea.

Wei Yingning's eyes widened, with a rather dead expression on his face.
