After I was reborn, I became Mrs. Chief Assistant

Chapter 309
"What is this?" Xie Jue held the lantern and looked down for a long time, then stretched out his hand to twist it, but found nothing special, turned his head to look at Xie Jie, and asked curiously, "Do you know?"

Wenfeng couldn't see it, and reminded: "My lord, we are digging a grave!"

"Yeah, I know, digging a grave..." Xie Jue seemed to realize the meaning of these two words only now, and immediately jumped three feet away!
——Since what was dug was a grave, the things dug out were naturally coffins!
No wonder it's dark wood!

He squatted down, but still felt his legs tremble uncontrollably.

Xie Jie glanced at him: "If you are so timid, how will you get married in the future?"

After speaking, he called Wenfeng to come and open the coffin with him.

The two of them worked together to lift the lid of the coffin, and then Xie Jie went to Xie Jue's side, brought the lantern over, looked at it carefully, and then smiled slightly: "It really isn't."

"No? If you want to find something, you have to find it in someone else's coffin, and even dig the grave and open the coffin. Is it worthless?" Hearing what he said, Xie Jue got up honestly and walked over from the side, wanting to see what was in the coffin. It's different, what exactly is Xie Jie looking for? What if he has better eyesight than Xie Jie, and what clues can he see at a glance?

However, when he actually got to the coffin, he was stunned—the coffin was empty, and there was nothing there.

"This... what's going on?"

Xie Jie glanced at him, and did not make fun of him or perfunctory him, but asked, "Do you know where this Yingcheng is?"

In the empty peach grove suddenly there was a howling wind. The peach trees that had lost all their leaves were shaking with dead branches. The pale moonlight pushed aside a ray of dark clouds and fell from the heads of several people.

Xie Jue cried and hugged Xie Jie's thigh tightly, his voice trembling: "I know... I know. The Shen family in Jinkang, the Yue family in Jitang, the Su family in Jiating, since... from the state of Chu 300 years ago to the present, in Yingcheng There were three generations of empresses in total, and the phoenix trees in the city are evergreen all the year round, so gradually... gradually there are rumors that Yingcheng is where the phoenix veins are located, and even this city has a different name, Fengcheng."

"Well...then what? This...what does this have to do with our coming here tonight to do such immoral things?"

Xie Jue was really scared, so much so that he spoke intermittently, and even hugged Xie Jie's thigh very tightly.

Wenfeng couldn't see it, although Xie Jue always relied on him as the master and rode on top of him to do his best, but he was still the master anyway.

He took a step forward: "Third Young Master, don't scare my lord like this. My lord is timid and you don't know that he can't stand your scaring."

Xie Jie ignored him, and looked down at Xie Jue, with a flash of disgust in his eyes: "Don't do anything wrong, and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. You are so scared, what outrageous things have you done without telling me and my family?"

Just as Xie Jue was about to say no, a sudden gust of cold wind blew over again. It was already late autumn, and the night was already darker and dewy. No matter how thick he was wearing, he still felt the cold wind as if he had eyes Seeing it from the neck, he shivered, and suddenly felt as if there were eyes staring at him from behind.

He tightened his hand holding Xie Jie's thigh, closed his eyes and said, "I don't have the guts to do something outrageous. But you know me, look at me, I'm so handsome and suave , it is inevitable that there will be some girls who are deeply attached to me, but my destination is the great rivers and mountains in front of me, how can I be easily stumbled by one or two little girls?"

"It's inevitable that there are a few who can't think about it and do some extreme things to get my attention. But don't worry, if I know anything, I will let Wenfeng stop it. But I don't know... ...Then I can't help it, can I!"

After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes firmly, for fear that some female ghost would come to him and ask him to repay the love debt he owed before.

Xie Jie shook his head helplessly, and pulled him up: "Open your eyes and see, is there any ghost around here?"

Xie Jue secretly opened a crack in his tightly closed eyes.I don't know when the moon has come out from behind the clouds and hangs clear in the sky, it really doesn't look so scary.

He let go of his hand and coughed lightly: "I'm not afraid of what to look at! So you haven't said, what are you looking for here?"

Xie Jie raised his chin toward the coffin and said, "Go and cover the coffin and fill it with soil."

Xie Jue was so angry that he mustered up his courage and glared at Xie Jie: "Is there any reason for this?"

"Ok?"

Xie Jue: QAQ!

Okay, I lost the bet, it's his job!

Thinking of this, Xie Jue came over and patted Wen Feng's head: "Why are you standing still, why don't you hurry up and help! And Qiu Xing, I can't do anything about your master, but you have to listen to me, right? Come quickly Come with me!"

Qiu Xing glanced at Xie Jie.

Xie Jie nodded: "Go."

The three of them then filled the soil while listening to Xie Jie tell the secret of the past: "The queen of the previous dynasty came from the Su family of Jiating in Yingcheng, and grew up with the emperor as a childhood sweetheart. It was a godsend. It's just that the Su family is a family of merchants, and the ministers of the court quickly said that the queen's background is low, and she has no heirs, it is really unbearable to be a queen."

"Later I found out," Xie Jue said while filling the soil, while accepting Xie Jie's words, "The emperor is an infatuated kind, and he immediately refuted the minister, but he has just ascended the throne, and his foundation is shallow, and the minister who speaks is another The elders of the three dynasties faced each other, and the emperor was at a disadvantage in the end. So the two took a step back, and the minister no longer mentioned the matter of the empress's birth, but the emperor wanted to make the daughter of the minister a noble concubine.

"The fate of this emperor is not very good. When he was in power, he was fine, but he didn't expect that the whole country would be ruined in his hands. The army came to his house, and he was still listening to the opera. But it can't be blamed on him. , When he first came to power, I heard that he was still very diligent, but later, as the patriarch of the three dynasties, his enthusiasm for diligent government and love for the people was suppressed, and finally he became unmotivated."

These things are recorded in the history of barnyard officials and unofficials. The storytellers in the teahouse sometimes redraw the classics if they can’t find the scriptures. Jue spoke with great interest and listened intently without blinking his eyes.

"Everyone, are you in a good mood? It's just such a wonderful story, why don't you bring me with you?" Behind the peach forest, a slim figure of a woman gradually appeared.

As she approached, her voice also changed from ethereal to real.
