...
Meanwhile, Su Weichuan led the old servant to the back alley that Xia Yu had mentioned had been attacked.
There seemed to be a faint lingering smell of smoke from burning yellow talismans in the air.
"Your Highness, it really exists!"
The old servant held up the talisman ash mixed with mud and presented it to Su Weichuan.
Su Weichuan gently crushed the talisman ash with his fingertips.
"Indeed, it is the work of a Taoist from the Xuanmen sect. After many years, Black Crow has reappeared and even broke into my Buddhist Heart Hall to steal the map of the Sui Dynasty imperial tombs. How interesting."
The old servant was surprised.
"Your Highness, if what Young Master Xia said is true, then the escaped thieves and Black Crow are both related to the Marquis of Weiyuan's residence?"
Su Weichuan threw away the ashes in his hand.
"We'll soon find out whether it's related or not. Let's go back to the manor."
...
In the backyard, the old princess was frightened and breathless. She lay on the soft couch but refused to rest for a long time.
A servant boy came in with his head bowed.
"Madam, the matter has been resolved. The Prince has returned to Fuxin Hall and sent word that you should repair the ancestral hall as soon as possible."
The old princess helped the nanny who served her to sit up, and asked somewhat anxiously, "Did she say anything else?"
The servant shook his head.
"there is none left."
A hint of disappointment flashed across the old princess's face, and she seemed to have aged several years.
With such a big incident, all the guards and secret agents went to guard the Buddha Heart Hall, yet he wouldn't even come to see her.
Twenty years have passed.
That woman has been dead for twenty years!
He built a Buddhist temple for her and guarded it mysteriously for twenty years. Did he still have any regard for his wife of many years?
"Cough cough cough cough!"
She was so angry that a mouthful of fishy-sweet taste rose in her throat.
Su Rong'an and the others exclaimed in surprise and stepped forward, but were stopped by the old princess raising her hand.
"I'm tired, everyone can leave now."
The group had no choice but to bow and leave.
Once outside the courtyard, Su Rong'an looked at Cheng Shi beside her and smiled with disdain.
"Second sister, you've gotten thicker and thicker these past few years. If my eldest branch of the family had done something this shameful, I would have already smashed my head against a block of tofu."
At this moment, Su Yulan looked like a defeated rooster, her head hanging low and her face drooping, all traces of her previous arrogance gone.
Cheng was furious at her lack of self-control and dragged her away.
Su Qinghe reminded him sweetly from behind.
"Lan'er, when I marry the Second Prince, you must bring your husband and son to drink a cup of wedding wine."
Su Yulan was so agitated that she was almost driven mad.
