Wang Longyun had a slightly complicated expression. He looked up at the sun in the sky and said softly.

"We tried, but we couldn't open it no matter what. Since you're here today, I'll let you try."

Shu Yan followed Wang Longyun to the tomb that An You mentioned.

The entire tomb was sealed by a huge cement door. There were many traces of explosives outside. Wang Longyun said, "We used a lot of explosives, including the yellow gunpowder that godmother had made before, but we couldn't blow it open at all."

An added: "We once dug it manually and spent three years to drill through a wall, but found that there was only very strong steel inside."

Shu Yan touched the wall left by some unknown predecessor, and suddenly a strange thought came to his mind.

A door of this level can probably only be blown up by TNT-equivalent explosives of later generations.

The gunpowder that the original owner left for this world could not be exploded at all, and Shu Yan now had no way to explode it either.

Shu Yan said to Wang Longyun: "I can't open it now, but I can definitely open it later. Didn't you ask me to attend your wedding today?"

let's start.

Taizhou City, He Palace.

Now that the young emperor has moved in, the people in the southwest have become legitimate. They heard that the Prince of Chen had specially written a letter to the young emperor, saying that Su Ranqing was, after all, the top scholar in the world and had this first-class reputation.

The young emperor took the opportunity to officially appoint Prince Chen as the king, and the one who is currently sitting in the imperial city is not in the right position.

Cheng Sanbai sat in the yard bored. Taizhou City was hot and humid. It was already August, but the weather was still very hot.

Bai Guichen had gone out of town and had not returned yet. At this moment, only he, Asura and Chen Yunzhong were left in the residence.

I don't know what happened to the child Asura, but he grew up in an instant, like a willow tree.

Ever since my godmother went to attend some wedding, she and He Shengzi have been staying in the mountains for more than half a year, and there has been no news of her returning yet.

Wang Longyun and his beautiful wife are back.

Chen Yun finally carried a big watermelon out of the house. Seeing his third brother looking idle, he immediately said, "Third brother, I heard that Mr. Su is going to marry a queen for Yu'an, and she is from the Xie family. She is a lady from the most aristocratic family in Jiangnan and is said to be fifteen years old."

Cheng San was stunned.

"Yu'an is only ten years old, and she's getting married? This Su guy is really vicious."

Chen Yun finally sat aside and started eating watermelon.

"If I stayed in Taiyuan, I might have been arranged to marry by now. My elder brother would not let me do anything because he saw that I was useless. This kind of life is not bad."

Cheng San looked at Chen Yunzhong and asked with a smile: "Since you lived a comfortable life before, why do you want to stay with your godmother?"

Chen Yun finally held the watermelon with a somewhat lonely look on his face.

"My mother never looked me in the eye, so I thought that one day, I would let her see me clearly as her son."

Cheng San looked at Chen Yunzhong with a little pity.

"Mama's boy."

At this moment, Asura, who had been sitting silently beside them, suddenly raised his head and looked outside the door, only to see Shu Yan and He Shengzi, who looked exhausted, coming in.

Shu Yan looked a little darker than before, but his eyes were still bright.

Cheng San hurried forward and asked, "What good thing did godmother find that makes you so happy?"

Shu Yan sat aside, picked up Chen Yunzhong's watermelon, took a bite, and the heat in his heart dissipated a little.

Shu Yan said, "Of course he got something good. It was in Shengyuan County, 500 miles south of Taizhou. My nephew was given to Lao Liu." Chen Yunzhong was stunned. He asked puzzledly, "What do you mean?"

Cheng San patted Chen Yunzhong on the shoulder.

"It means you are going to be the county magistrate."

Chen Yunzhong had a puzzled look on his face. He had just said that he wanted to let his mother see his abilities, but now he was going to be the county magistrate.

But it always feels a little strange.

Cheng San looked at Shu Yan with bright eyes, and asked softly, "I wonder if there are any good things in the county town?"

Shu Yan smiled bitterly.

"It's a poor place with bad waters, but luckily I found some good stuff there. You'll know when you get there."

Shu Yan and He Shengzi were exhausted from traveling all the way, so they went back to pack and wash up.

Chen Yunzhong sat there alone, muttering, "Am I going to be the county magistrate?"

Shu Yan had been settled here for a few days, and his complexion had become a little whiter. Someone from the palace came and said that they wanted to go and watch the ceremony.

Now the new dynasty has enthroned the Queen. Although the little emperor is only 10 years old, it is still a state ceremony after all, so naturally there is a huge commotion.

Shu Yan changed into the clothes sent by the palace, and she really looked a bit like the empress dowager.

Cheng San walked up to Shu Yan and whispered, "If godmother was willing to give in, she would be the queen mother in the palace now."

Shu Yan smiled.

"Su Ranqing will definitely not wait until that day comes and will kill me."

The palace maids put an exquisite crown on Shu Yan's head. It was said that this was a popular style in the southwest. Shu Yan left with the maids, and several men went there on horseback.

The palace was not big, it was just built temporarily. Behind the main gate was a somewhat empty hall, but there were quite a few people standing inside.

The ceremonial staffs on both sides were made extremely simply. The entire hall was filled with all kinds of so-called princes and nobles, but it was not beautiful.

Shu Yan stood in the corner. She saw Yu An, who was standing in the center of the crowd, wearing an imperial robe and looking extremely thin.

The child's eyes were full of coldness, and he seemed to have the qualities that an emperor should have.

In fact, Shu Yan was also very curious whether all emperors would possess this quality in the end.

Yu'an seemed to have noticed Shu Yan's gaze as well.

He looked over here, and there was finally a hint of emotion in his eyes.

At this moment, music suddenly sounded, and a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old wearing a gorgeous wind cannon slowly walked out of the hall, and everyone fell silent immediately.

Shu Yan looked at the girl. It was said that she was the daughter of the Xie family, who was selected from hundreds of young ladies from Jiangnan.

She is said to be an extremely intelligent woman.

The wedding ceremony of the Emperor and Empress was extremely complicated, and Shu Yan's eyelids were drooping as she watched it. She sat alone in the corner and didn't want to say anything more to these people, but someone came to cause trouble for her.

I only saw Xu Guangling coming in leisurely. He was also a scholar from Jiangnan. It was said that he had failed in the examinations in his early years. However, now that he was born in a turbulent time, he had made some name for himself.

Xu Guangling said to Shu Yan, "Meet Supervisor Wang."

Shu Yan raised her eyelids and said with a fake smile: "My Lord, you call me an old woman like this, I feel a little guilty. Now I have no official position, so I don't deserve your call." (End of this chapter)
