Speaking of which, the roaring emperor wasn't weak. Although it was only at the Man Wheel level and relied entirely on its roar, an Earth Wheel expert would faint for a long time with its roar.
Ordinary people would be roared to death.
However, it was like a domesticated dog that naturally liked to please people.
"Tie it up, just tie it up here!"
Ren Baqian instructed the guards to tie the roaring emperor to a rockery that was as tall as a human.
It stared at the two guards and allowed them to tie it to the rock. Although it struggled a little, its strength was no different from that of a baby in front of the guards.
It simply showed an extremely flattering expression and almost stuck out its tongue.
"Gag its mouth!" Ren Baqian said again. After the guards gag its mouth, he squatted in front of it with a kind smile and asked, "Do you know what you have done wrong?"
The roaring emperor was at a loss.
"Were you the one who dug the tunnels under the palace?" Ren Baqian continued to smile kindly.
It would be fine if the tunnels were under the palace, but the problem was that the roaring emperor and the crow general were more than 500 meters away from the palace in a straight line. It was unknown how many palace halls there were in between.
Furthermore, there were dozens of holes in the walls around the palace. It was estimated that the entire palace was like a sieve.
If this was done by a human, even nine generations of the culprit wouldn't be enough to punish them!
The roaring emperor continued to be at a loss.
"If you don't shake your head, it means that you agree! Bring me the scissors! " Ren Baqian took the scissors and gestured at the roaring emperor's little d * ck. "Do you know what will happen if you cut this off?"
The roaring emperor's flattering expression suddenly froze, and its eyes widened as if it had seen something extremely terrifying.
"You will no longer be troubled by your estrus period! Happy? "
The roaring emperor struggled frantically with fear in its eyes.
Ren Baqian slapped the scissors on the roaring emperor's penis again and again. He slapped it a dozen times in a row, pointed at the hole in the wall, and asked, "Are you still going to dig a hole under the palace?"
The roaring emperor nodded frantically.
"Oh, your d * ck is valuable, but digging holes is even more valuable, right?" Ren Baqian smiled brightly and placed the blade of the scissors on the roaring emperor's d * ck.
The Roaring Emperor's movements froze for a moment, then he shook his head frantically.
Ren Baqian didn't want to do anything to the roaring emperor. He flicked its little d * ck a few times and scared it before letting it go.
As soon as the roaring emperor landed on the ground, it instinctively wanted to dig a hole to escape. However, its tail was stepped on.
She turned around and saw Ren Baqian looking at her with a kind face.
A fawning smile subconsciously appeared on his face.
After being flicked dozens of times more, the Roaring Emperor looked at its own d * ck, wanting to cry but having no tears. After confirming that it was only a little swollen, it did not make another hole this time. Instead, it ran away like a wisp of smoke.
Ren Baqian shook his head slightly. This guy was too fast at digging. The moment he landed, he had already dug a hole that was half a meter in diameter and half a meter in depth.
The empress was still staring at the excavation site. At this moment, a corner of the excavation site had already been cleared. Nine meters below the original bedroom, there was a piece of grayish-white rock. The surface of the rock was flat, and it could be confirmed that it was created by humans.
He reckoned that there might be some sort of secret room under the rock.
At this time, they were expanding the excavation area to search for an entrance.
He walked to the empress's side and said, "Your Majesty, we can start preparing the new palace …"
The empress tilted her head and looked at him.
"Your Majesty, you don't want the palace to collapse one day, right?" Ren Baqian smiled bitterly. Currently, the bottom of the palace was like a sieve. It might collapse one day if there was a heavy rain.
If a large area of the palace collapsed one day, one could imagine how great the impact would be. At that time, rumors would spread everywhere, and there would definitely be a big mess.
As for plugging the holes under the palace, Ren Baqian did not even think about it. They would have to dig up the entire palace, which wasn't much easier than rebuilding a palace.
Furthermore, they already had plans to rebuild the capital and build a modern capital. They originally planned to build it after the roads were repaired, but now, they could prepare ahead of time.
When the empress heard what Ren Baqian said, she immediately recalled the incident where the two of them fooled around until the bedroom collapsed. Her face looked as if it was dripping blood.
Her small fists hammered Ren Baqian's chest.
In response, Ren Baqian was sent flying. He directly crashed into a tree that was as thick as the mouth of a bowl, causing a rain of petals to fill the sky.
The clean-up work continued for another day. After clearing one round along the earthen wall, they realized that the area of the rock underneath was actually larger than the bedroom.
In the end, the empress simply resorted to violent means. She directly punched down and directly opened a skylight.
With one punch, the empress smashed a huge rock with a radius of two meters, revealing a passage that was four to five meters tall. The passage was actually paved with white jade, and at the same time, a dusty smell assailed their nostrils.
"Your Majesty, this place has been sealed for an unknown period of time. The air is so turbid that people can't go down. We have to leave it here for at least a few hours." Ren Baqian stopped the empress, who immediately wanted to go down and take a look.
Although they could also put candles down to see how the oxygen was, Ren Baqian felt that the smell would definitely be bad after being sealed for an unknown period of time. In any case, it was just here and wouldn't run away.
"That's settled then," the empress immediately said.
After another day, there were more than 20 people standing in the courtyard of the former sleeping quarters. Not only were the empress, Ren Baqian, and Xin Zhe here, but even Tong Zhenye was here. There were also a few officials from the Ministry of Works, and the rest were palace guards.
"Take a torch and go down. If it's extinguished, come back immediately," Ren Baqian instructed a few guards.
"I didn't expect Zhao Prince Consort to know about this." Tong Zhenye was slightly surprised. "If it weren't for the people in the Ministry of Works who specialize in this matter, I wouldn't even know about this. How did Zhao Prince Consort know about it?"
Ren Baqian rolled his eyes. This was common knowledge, alright? Even a three-year-old knew!
"Your Majesty, Zhao Prince Consort, Minister Sir, we will go down first." Two officials from the Ministry of Works cupped their hands and jumped down.
The jump to the bottom was about six to seven meters high, but it wasn't a problem for them.
They first moved the gravel to one side, lit up the torches, and then began to advance toward the north and south ends.
Soon after, the empress, Ren Baqian, and the others jumped into the passage one after another and looked around.
The passage was about four meters high. The walls on both sides were made of the same material as the huge rocks above, but they were polished and smoother.
Ren Baqian bent over and touched the ground. It was warm and delicate, and he could see the texture in the light. He immediately exclaimed, "It's indeed white jade! How extravagant! Was this built by the Hao Nation? "
This passage was about three meters wide. Both ends were covered by darkness, and it was impossible to see how far it went. Just the value of this white jade alone was very high. This was real jade, not marble like white marble.
Even if it was of inferior quality, such a large piece of jade was still very valuable. Furthermore, even though Ren Baqian didn't know much about jade, the jade road under his feet was white and flawless. It was glossy, soft, and exquisite to the touch. It definitely wasn't inferior jade.
Ren Baqian didn't know how they found so much white jade!
"I didn't find any records of this." Tong Zhengye shook his head. After finding out about the situation here last night, he sent people to Qingxin Palace Hall to search for the books left behind by the Hao Nation, but to no avail.
"Before the establishment of the Hao Nation, there was a Jiang Nation here. Perhaps it was established by the Jiang Nation," an official from the Ministry of Works guessed.
Ren Baqian looked at the empress's thoughtful expression and immediately asked, "Your Majesty, what do you know?"
"Didn't you say yesterday that you wanted to rebuild the palace? I want to use this white jade to build a palace! "
"Rebuild the palace?" Tong Zhengye was shocked. Rebuilding such a palace required a lot of manpower and material resources, and the entire national treasury of Dayao might not even be enough for it in a year!
Now that the Yun Nation had just been conquered, more than half of the aboriginals were still poor, and they actually wanted to rebuild the palace?
"Let's talk about this later." Ren Baqian knew what Tong Zhengye was thinking by looking at his expression and gave him a look.
Seeing Ren Baqian's look, Tong Zhengye knew that there must be something going on. Furthermore, the empress wasn't an extravagant person, and this wasn't the right time to ask questions.
