Chapter 294 Grave Relocation

In the middle of February of the seventh year of Dashang.

Lu Shenge followed Shen Zhenghai to Dongyang County.

Shen Zhenghai, the emperor, came to inspect the imperial mausoleum. Here, Chen Quan started construction of the ancestral mausoleum for his father, Chen Taiyi.

Later, he accidentally dug up an ancient tomb and obtained a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, which instantly filled the treasury of the Great Shang Kingdom.

Now that Chen Quan is dead, his body is still buried in the palace on ice, but the construction of the ancestral mausoleum in Dayun Mountain in Dongyang County has not yet been completed.

Lu Sheige asked Shen Zhenghai: "When will the imperial mausoleum be built?"

Shen Zhenghai stood on the top of Xiaoyun Mountain, looking at the bustling Dayun Mountain not far away and said: "Zhou Yang said that it will not be until the end of August at the earliest."

Although most of the treasures in the ancient tombs have been cleared out, it will take a lot of effort to re-survey the original tombs and then build them into imperial mausoleums.

Lu Shege scoffed: "Then Chen Quan is going to make a fuss?"

It would be really stinking to put Chen Quan at that time.

Lu Sheige and Lu Quan came to participate in the construction of the Lu family's ancestral hall, so he naturally knew that Lu Yuanping was somewhat benevolent.

Shen Zhenghai said lightly: "This is a common thing. Generally, emperors have to bury their queens, build mausoleums, and build palaces to bury their coffins. It can take as short as half a year or as long as a year. The imperial mausoleum was originally designated by the late emperor. If

Even if the ancient tomb has been excavated, most of it has been built now, and the late emperor can also be buried first."

Now hearing what he said, Lu Sheige hurriedly said: "Uncle Patriarch, don't worry, I came back just for this matter."

"Then I'll trouble the patriarch to pick a date. Moving the ancestral tombs is a big deal. For generations of our Lu family, more than a dozen ancestral tombs have been in Dayun Mountain. It's still very troublesome to move them one by one. My eldest cousin happened to be here this time.

The emperor has also sent me some people, and when the time comes, the clan leader will just choose a day for me, and I will have someone here to help move the tomb."

"It's the patriarch, uncle." Lu Shege hurriedly bent down to support Lu Yuanping, "Uncle, there's no need to be polite. Aren't you going to hurt your niece by doing this?"

Hearing that Lu Sheige followed his cousin to Xiaoyun Mountain, the clan leader rushed to Xiaoyun Mountain out of breath.

Originally he shouldn't have made this trip, but the Emperor's funeral coincided with the New Year, so he had no choice but to store the Emperor's coffin in the temple with ice.

Because of this, while the funeral was still being held in the palace, Shen Zhenghai took over the emperor's order to supervise the construction of the imperial mausoleum.

Many ministers in the court could not understand why the Chen family wanted to build the imperial mausoleum in Dongyang County. Speaking of mountains, the capital city is surrounded by mountains. There is no better place than Dongyang County. Even if the late emperor was obsessed with his hometown, he should still place the imperial mausoleum there.

The mausoleum was built in Nanyang County, not Dongyang County, which is still dozens of kilometers away.

In early spring, Xiaoyun Mountain is full of greenery, and the large green shade is mixed with red flowers and green willows.

But Lu Yuanshan's branch was almost extinct. It was said that there was only one daughter left, who was made the princess by the late emperor.

The Lu family ancestral hall at the foot of Xiaoyun Mountain is still there, and the people of the Lu family are worried. The emperor wants to build an imperial mausoleum in Dayun Mountain, so what should happen to the Lu family's ancestral hall and the ancestral tombs on Xiaoyun Mountain in Dayun Mountain.

The patriarch, Lu Yuanping, looked at the woman in plain clothes in front of him. She had slender shoulders and a slender waist. Although she looked frail, she could still tell that she had a good figure and a dignified manner.

Dayun Mountain in Dongyang County is the largest mountain in the southeast. Its geographical location is excellent and it happens to be very close to the late emperor’s hometown. That’s why the late emperor’s mausoleum was placed in Dayun Mountain in Dongyang County.

Since it was the late emperor's choice to move the ashes of his father to Dongyang County, no one in the court dared to question it.

Lu Yuanping said: "I have actually wanted to go to Beijing to find Xiang Ge for a long time. The royal family wants to build an imperial mausoleum in Dayun Mountain, but what should I do if the ancestral tombs of our Lu family are still in Dayun Mountain? But Brother Lu Quan said that I should

Don't worry, She Ge will come back naturally when it's time. I think Lu Quan is his adoptive father, so I'll just wait."

He said that Lu Yuanping wanted to salute, but was stopped by Shen Zhenghai: "Clan Chief Lu, although courtesy is indispensable, Xi Ge is the Lu family, and you are always the patriarch of the Lu family. In this land in your hometown, you still treat it as a family.

Treat him with courtesy."

The royal family chose Dayun Mountain to build the imperial mausoleum, but the late emperor Chen Quan had passed away. By the time Chen Quan's coffin entered the imperial mausoleum, it would be too late for the Lu family to move the tomb.

Later, the person who built the imperial mausoleum in the New Year was replaced by Zhou Yang. Zhou Yang only said that the descendants of the Lu family would come to him to discuss these matters in detail.

When the time comes, the Lu family's ancestral tombs will still occupy the land of the imperial mausoleum. Isn't it right?

But this female doll cannot inherit the Lu family's family business, how to negotiate?

Fortunately, the imperial mausoleum has always been built on the mountainside, and everyone, whether officers, soldiers or hired laborers, was warned to avoid the Lu family's ancestral tombs and not to offend, which gave the Lu family patriarch a little peace of mind.

What he was originally afraid of was that these officers and soldiers would destroy the Lu family's tombs if they refused to follow the rules.

It's just that the late emperor never prepared the imperial mausoleum. Now that the late emperor has passed away, the matter of building the imperial mausoleum is urgent.

With great difficulty, the clan leader waited until Lu Shege came to Dongyang County.

Although the Lu family has a large number of members, most of their ancestral tombs are buried on Xiaoyun Mountain, and a tomb on the hillside of Dayun Mountain belongs to the Lu Yuanshan branch.

Later, I felt a little relieved when I saw that the officers and soldiers had specially fenced off the Lu family cemetery.

Later, the Empress Dowager summoned several wives of important officials in the palace and told them about Chen Quan's plan to locate the imperial mausoleum in Dongyang County and specially ordered Song Yunfei to build it.

The Empress Dowager also took out the manuscript written by the late emperor to Song Yunfei, so that the ladies could be aware of it.

After all, the Lu family had a princess, and Lu Yuanshan and the late emperor Chen Quan were brothers-in-law. Even for the sake of good looks, we couldn't let others ruin the Lu family's graveyard.

Even if the royal family doesn't mind, the Lu family can't be so ignorant of appreciation that they really won't move the grave.

Although this branch has been passed down alone for several generations, there are still more than a dozen graves.

"Even if you are my niece, Lu Yuanping, you are still the princess of my dynasty. This gift cannot be wasted."

Lu Yuanping stepped forward and saluted: "Master Shen, Xi Ge."

After the New Year, the palace began to hold funerals.

Now that the royal family wants to build an imperial mausoleum here, there is no room for others to sleep soundly on the couch.

Lu Yuanping was stunned when he heard what Lu Xiangge said.

Seeing that Shen Zhenghai and Lu Shengge were sincere, Lu Yuanping straightened up and breathed a sigh of relief.

The head of the Lu family asked to see Song Yunfei several times, but Song Yunfei blocked him every time.

It's just that when there is a funeral and burial, there must be a place to bury it. Chen Quan is not an ordinary person. He can be buried wherever he chooses according to Feng Shui.

"Okay, okay, I'll feel relieved once you come back to make arrangements." Lu Yuanping hesitated for a moment and said carefully, "If you want to move the ancestral tomb to Xiaoyun Mountain, it's best to choose a date before the Qingming Festival."

How can anyone move their ancestral graves without using the Lu family?

However, considering that Lu Sheige is now the princess, the Shen family is a relative of the country, and the current Holy Lord is still Shege's cousin.

The fact that the emperor can send people to move Sheo Ge's grave shows that the emperor has a high regard for Sheo Ge.

This is considered a favor to the Lu family. He should be happy. How can he question it?
