Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 610 Black Robe

Chu Tian and Qian Bao were not to be outdone, and each of them selected their favorite treasures. However, just as they were immersed in the joy of wealth, a strange sound suddenly came from the tomb. Then, the ground began to shake violently, and the murals on the wall began to twist and deform. "Not good! There is a mechanism!" Chu Tian shouted and hurriedly asked everyone to retreat. However, the passage they came from was blocked by a huge stone slab, and they were trapped in the tomb. At this time, a huge stone platform slowly rose in the corner of the tomb, and a man in a black robe stood on the stone platform, and his face could not be seen clearly. "You greedy tomb robbers dared to break into my mausoleum. Today is your death!" The man in black robe said coldly. Chu Tian was shocked, and he knew he was in real trouble. He quickly calmed down, observed the surrounding environment, and tried to find a way to crack the mechanism. Suddenly, he found a small button on the stone platform, which seemed to be the key to controlling the mechanism. He quietly winked at Zhao Hu and Qian Bao, and the three of them rushed to the stone platform at the same time. Seeing this, the man in black robe immediately activated the mechanism. Countless sharp arrows shot out from the wall, and the three dodged left and right, which was extremely thrilling. Chu Tian took advantage of the black-robed man's inattention, jumped suddenly, and pressed the button on the stone platform. In an instant, the mechanism stopped working, and the black-robed man disappeared without a trace. The three breathed a sigh of relief and continued to look for an exit. After some efforts, they finally found a passage hidden behind the wall and successfully escaped from the ancient tomb. This ancient tomb exploration gave Chu Tian a lot of gains. He not only got many precious cultural relics, but also had a deeper understanding of the tomb-robbing culture of this world. But he also knew that tomb robbing is a dangerous and unknown thing, and every expedition may face a test of life and death. Back home, Chu Tian told other tomb-robbing lieutenants about the experience of this expedition. Everyone admired his courage and wisdom, and also warned him to be more cautious in the future. Since then, Chu Tian has not stopped his tomb-robbing journey. He keeps looking for new ancient tombs and exploring the secrets hidden in the depths of history. And every one of his expeditions is full of thrills and excitement, and has become a legendary story circulating in the rivers and lakes.

Forbidden City Power: The Prince's Counterattack As soon as Chu Tian opened his eyes, the familiar carved bed and golden curtains came into view, and the incense lingered around his nose, but his head felt like it had been hit by a heavy hammer, and severe pain came over him. The strange and complicated memories were like a surging tide, drowning him. "I... became a prince?" Chu Tian muttered to himself with a face full of shock. He was originally a history fan in modern society and was full of interest in the stories of ancient courts, but he didn't expect that he would travel through time and space and become a prince in this deep palace. After digesting these memories, he knew that he was in a dynasty with fierce competition for the throne, and every prince was eyeing the supreme throne. As the third prince, Chu Tian's mother was just an unpopular concubine. In this court, he didn't have much advantage. But a fire of unwillingness to be ordinary ignited in his heart. Since he came to this world, why not strive for the highest power and rewrite the pattern of this court? At this time, the situation in the court was undercurrent. The eldest prince Chu Feng is old and deeply supported by the old ministers in the court. He is calm and has a deep foundation in the court; the second prince Chu Lei is generous, holds military power, and has many soldiers under his command; the fourth prince Chu Ze is extremely intelligent, good at political tactics, and has close collusion with the eunuchs in the court. They all regard the throne as something in their pockets, and at first they did not take Chu Tian, ​​the seemingly inconspicuous third prince, seriously. Chu Tian knew that his situation was difficult, and he began to lay out secretly. On the one hand, he recruited talents, looking for those knowledgeable people among the people and the court, and formed his own think tank. He often went out of the palace incognito, talked with the people, understood the sufferings of the people, accumulated experience for the future governance of the country, and also established a good reputation among the people. On the other hand, he was cautious in his words and deeds in the court, secretly observing the actions of other princes and looking for their flaws. Once, a grand poetry meeting was held in the court to select talents, and it was also a stage for the princes to show their strength. The eldest prince Chu Feng won the praise of many ministers with a magnificent poem; although the second prince Chu Lei was not good at poetry, his generous character and insights into military affairs also attracted the attention of many generals; the fourth prince Chu Ze won over many literati with his clever words. Chu Tian was not in a hurry. He amazed the audience with a poem that cared about people's livelihood and was full of profound meaning. It not only showed his talent, but also reflected his concern for the people of the world. After the poetry meeting, Chu Tian's reputation in the court gradually increased, which aroused the vigilance of other princes. The eldest prince Chu Feng took the lead in the attack. He instructed his confidants to impeach Chu Tian in the court, saying that he had ill intentions when he left the palace incognito, made friends with people from all walks of life, and had the intention of rebellion. Chu Tian was well prepared. He took out the suggestions and demands of the people on the court that he had collected from the people and presented them to the emperor one by one. Seeing that Chu Tian cared about the people, the emperor not only did not blame him, but appreciated him more. Seeing that this plan failed, the second prince Chu Lei suppressed Chu Tian militarily. He deliberately did not support Chu Tian's trusted army in the border war, causing the army to fall into trouble. After Chu Tian learned about it, he went to the front line in person. With the military knowledge and wisdom he learned in modern times, he cleverly resolved the crisis and won a beautiful victory. This battle greatly increased Chu Tian's prestige in the army and bankrupted the conspiracy of the second prince Chu Lei. The fourth prince Chu Ze was even more insidious. He bribed a eunuch around Chu Tian and put medicine in Chu Tian's diet in an attempt to make him sick and unable to participate in the fight for the throne. After Chu Tian noticed something strange, he took advantage of the situation and pretended to be poisoned and unconscious. After a secret investigation, the fourth prince Chu Ze, the mastermind behind the scenes, was finally found. However, how could the other princes give up easily? They united and framed Chu Tian in front of the emperor for forming a clique for personal gain and intending to rebel. Under the instigation of everyone, the emperor believed it for a while and ordered Chu Tian to be imprisoned. In prison, Chu Tian was tortured, but his faith never wavered. He knew that he could not fall like this and had to find a way to prove his innocence. With his wisdom and eloquence, he persuaded the jailer who was guarding him to help pass the message to his confidants. After Chu Tian's confidants learned that he was framed, they ran around to collect evidence of other princes' crimes. They found the account books of the eldest prince Chu Feng's corruption and bribery, the evidence of the second prince Chu Lei's private mobilization of the army, and the letters of the fourth prince Chu Ze's collusion with eunuchs to disrupt the government.
