Chapter 2143: Not a Crime Punishable by Death
Not long after, several loud noises were heard from the imperial mausoleum, shaking the entire mountain range.
The mausoleum guards who were guarding the imperial mausoleum immediately rushed out from all directions and surrounded the entire mountain range, trying to find out where the loud noise came from.
"Report!"
A mausoleum guard hurried over and came to a general in armor.
"General, the northern vein of the imperial mausoleum was blown up, and there were many footprints left in the western palace. There are many treasures scattered outside the western palace."
"What?!"
The man who was called the general was not well when he heard this.
He was the general in charge of guarding the imperial mausoleum, which meant that he had given his entire life and property to the imperial mausoleum.
Now the imperial mausoleum was not only blown up, but also the treasures that the royal family cared about most were thrown all over the ground?
Who is this person, is he crazy?
He actually threw the treasures all over the floor. If it were him, he would definitely throw all those treasures...
"No."
The general paused, looking at his subordinates with a dark face.
"What are those treasures?"
As soon as he asked, before his subordinates could report back, he threw his robe back and headed towards the West Palace.
After a while, the mausoleum guards looked at their general, who sat down in front of the treasures, and his whole body was covered with a strong layer of death.
"How could this happen? How could this happen?"
He kept muttering in his mouth, wishing to cut the person who stole the treasures from the imperial mausoleum into pieces.
How could he deliberately scatter the treasures in the West Palace all over the floor? It was obvious that he took too many treasures from it and thought that they might be discovered by the guards guarding the mausoleum, so he threw away those that they thought were unimportant.
If he guessed correctly, the person who stole the imperial mausoleum should have stolen all the better and more valuable things.
"General, what's wrong with you?"
The mausoleum guards who hadn't figured out the problem asked when they saw their general in such a state of dismay.
It was just that some treasures were scattered everywhere, at least they were not lost, and some parts of the imperial mausoleum were destroyed, but it was not serious. Even if the emperor would blame him, it should not be a crime punishable by death.
"General, let's report to the emperor truthfully. Even if the emperor thinks of the general's many years of hard work and great contributions, he will not punish him too severely."
"You fart!"
After hearing this, the general cursed.
What do you mean by not punishing him too severely? This time, only he died alone, which was a bargain for him.
Maybe, their entire family will be implicated and executed!
The emperor is a cruel master for some reason, doesn't he know?
He has been with the emperor for many years, and has been with the current emperor since childhood. The emperor trusts him very much, which has always been his greatest pride.
Otherwise, the emperor would not have sent him to guard the imperial mausoleum, which is the most important place for every emperor of Ziyan Country.
Who would have thought that it was because of the emperor's trust in him that he died directly in this imperial mausoleum.
The person who stole the treasures just stole the things, anyway, the West Palace is not guarded by the generals like them, and they can enter, and no one will know that the treasures in the West Palace have been stolen.
But the thieves threw some outside the West Palace, and even put explosives in the imperial mausoleum.
