Tibet

Li Lin was sitting alone in his study room revising his plans. So far, none of the plans had been achieved, which made him extremely frustrated. He had to start revising and remove some unrealistic plans.

Li Lin regretted concentrating on training private troops. The goal was too big. He should have divided them into small groups and arranged them to be trained in various farms, and then trained a team of about 50 assassins separately.

The assassins were used to assassinate Li Ye, and the army was used to take over the government. Alas! I didn't think it through for a while.

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried running outside. The housekeeper came running like a gust of wind and shouted in the yard: "Prince, we are surrounded by the inner guards!"

"What!"

Li Lin stood up and asked in a trembling voice: "How many people are there?"

"At least several thousand people!"

"Go tell the leading general that I am not at home!"

The housekeeper ran away. Li Lin's legs trembled and his heart was panicked. He turned around and ran into the inner room in a panic. He pushed open the bookshelf, revealing the secret door of the secret room. He got in and reset the bookshelf.

The secret room was only about ten square meters. It usually stored his treasures and curios, but now it has become his hiding place for escape.

Two thousand inner guards surrounded Li Lin's Yongwang Mansion. The housekeeper waved his hands at the door and shouted: "My prince is not in the mansion, you can't go in!"

A soldier rushed up and knocked the housekeeper to the ground with a punch. The inner guard general waved his hand and said, "Go in and arrest him!"

Hundreds of inner guards rushed into the mansion.

There was a commotion in the mansion. Li Lin's son and grandson were tied up and escorted out.

But Li Lin was not seen.

Wang Zhen, the general, led people into Li Lin's study. He looked at the items on the table, touched the teacup, which was still warm, and the pen was still dipped in ink. More importantly, the contents of the plan on the table were absolutely confidential.

He turned around and said "Shh!" to a dozen men, and whispered: "He is hiding in the study!"

Everyone was refreshed and immediately went to search separately.

At this time, a soldier found something wrong with the bookshelf. The bookshelf was made of cast iron, and the books on it were fixed and could not be taken down. He quickly shouted "Shh!" to everyone, and everyone came forward and surrounded the bookshelf.

Wang Zhen waved his hand, and everyone pushed hard together. The bookshelf was forcibly pushed open, revealing the secret room door behind it.

The secret room door was also made of cast iron, locked from the inside, and could not be pushed open.

Wang Zhen kicked the door hard, making a muffled "dong!" sound.

"Come out!"

Wang Zhen shouted, "If you don't come out, I will pour iron juice on the iron door, and the secret room will be your living coffin!"

"No! I'm coming out."

Li Lin was immediately frightened. If the iron door was welded shut, he would really be buried in the secret room, where there was no food or water.

Li Lin opened the iron door, and the inner guards pulled him out.

Wang Zhen quickly confirmed his identity, especially the large black spot birthmark on his left calf. At first glance, Wang Zhen was sure that he was Yongwang Li Lin, not a fake or a substitute. He immediately winked at the soldier.

The soldier held Li Lin down, and Wang Zhen poured a bottle of poisoned wine into his mouth, and then locked him in an empty room. Li Lin was so scared that his soul flew away and he sat on the ground crying.

After a moment, the soldier pushed the door in and saw Yongwang Li Lin lying on the ground, bleeding from his mouth and nose and dying.

Not only Li Lin, but all his sons and grandsons were poisoned to death, and no one survived.

In Fengxian County, after a night of stone chiseling by professional craftsmen, the two-foot-thick sealing stone was broken, and the passage leading to the tomb burial area was opened. Qiaoling is a tomb of clothing and hats. Although a lot of wealth was buried with it, it was never like Qianling, where nearly half of the wealth of the Tang Dynasty was buried with it.

The leader was overjoyed and immediately arranged to transport a large number of empty boxes in, and all the burial treasures were packed and transported out. There were 700 large boxes in total. The bottom of these large boxes were equipped with wooden wheels, which could be easily dragged out with ropes.

Outside the Qiaoling Mausoleum, 3,000 internal guards approached from all directions. There were several sentry points in the Qiaoling Mausoleum. The internal guards were not in a hurry and waited patiently for news.

The internal guards also sent experts to lurk in and monitor the other party's actions recently.

The other party had succeeded, but had not yet transported it out.

At this time, large wooden boxes were transported out one after another. Dozens of carts had been prepared in the distance. The warriors moved the large boxes onto the carts, and the carts immediately drove out of the mausoleum. They rented a large yard nearby, first transported the wealth to the yard, and then transported it to Chang'an.

Not long after the carts came out, they were surrounded by the internal guards.

On the open space at the exit behind the mausoleum, the large boxes that had been transported out had piled up like a mountain. They had basically finished moving. The warriors were sitting outside and waiting for the cart to come back.

At this time, the last two large boxes were dragged out, and the leader shouted: "Don't sit there in a daze, bring more people and bury the hole!"

A dozen people came up and began to fill the secret passage with soil with shovels. This was the best time.

Three flashes of fire suddenly flashed in the woods behind them. It was very fast and fleeting. If you were not careful, you would basically not see it, but if you kept staring at it, it was an obvious signal.

At Xie Sen's command, the inner guards surrounded and killed from all directions. Hundreds of people were sitting on the boxes to rest and chat. Suddenly, countless inner guards surrounded them, and thousands of military crossbows were pointed at them. These warriors were stunned.

Xie Sen shouted: "Those who surrender can be released and go home, and those who resist will be killed without mercy!"

Hearing that they could be released and go home if they surrendered, the warriors raised their hands and surrendered.

The leader of the samurai leader rolled his eyes wildly. When the soldiers were not paying attention, he turned around and ran wildly. He was thrown to the ground by the inner guard soldiers before he ran a few steps. Several soldiers swarmed up and tied up the leader.

The next morning, Li Ye summoned Li Lin, the minister of Zongzheng Temple. Li Ye put all the evidence of Li Yu's crimes in front of Li Lin. Li Lin was dumbfounded. After a long while, he sighed and said: "I won't hide it from your highness, I will listen to you." There are some bad rumors. Li Yu came to me a few days ago and asked me for 300,000 yuan. I asked him what he was doing, but he didn't tell me. Then I didn't agree to give it to him. I didn't expect that he would dig bridges and tombs. He really deserves to die, that’s his grandfather’s tomb!”

Seeing that Li Lin was trembling with excitement, Li Ye said, "My lord, please don't get excited. I'm afraid things are not what you think. Qiaoling is just a tomb of clothes, and the former emperor is a flying dragon. Don't you know?"

Li Lin nodded, "Of course I know a little bit, but whether it's a clothing tomb or a real tomb, it's his grandfather's tomb. How could he."

Li Lin was heartbroken. He didn't expect that his own brother would attack his grandfather's tomb.

Li Ye said calmly: "He also trained five thousand dead soldiers in Lantian County in an attempt to rebel. This is a serious crime!"

Li Lin was silent for a while and said, "What does Your Highness plan to do with him?"
