Mo Shaoze smiled gently.
"Go and help the Third Prince."
...
Inside the pavilion, Mo Yunhan noticed that Jiang Qingwan didn't have a good appetite.
He seemed to have something on his mind.
"What did the fourth brother say to you?"
Jiang Qingwan pushed the things on the table to him.
"His Highness has done a lot of research. Those black insects should be related to the Sui Dynasty. He suspects that the attack we suffered that night was revenge by the remnants of the Sui Dynasty."
Mo Yunhan read them all.
"The group that appeared in Xuanling Mountain, and the group that attacked the Empress Dowager at Huguo Temple, were not all from the Sui Dynasty. There were also many bandits scattered throughout the four directions of the Great Zhou Dynasty whose identities could not be found. Their goal was not to restore the country, but to obtain the imperial tomb treasures."
"Imperial tomb treasures?"
Jiang Qingwan visited the Imperial Mausoleum of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
While there are indeed some treasures, they are heavily guarded by spirit protectors, so it would be faster and safer to rob them on the road.
Unless, of course, this treasure is so precious that they would be willing to take the risk.
"What exactly is your royal family hiding?"
Mo Yunhan shook his head.
"It is not the mausoleum of the Zhou Dynasty emperors, but the mausoleum of the Sui Dynasty emperors."
"The Sui Dynasty?"
Jiang Qingwan was puzzled, but a surge of anger rose in her heart.
"Wasn't the Sui Dynasty destroyed by the Zhou Dynasty? Do you think we can just leave the treasures behind?"
Mo Yunhan did not notice that something was wrong with her emotions.
Instead, he was lost in thought.
"Su Weichuan was the one who led the troops back then. He probably knows best what the Sui Dynasty imperial tombs contain and what their relationship is with the Zhou Dynasty imperial tombs."
He sighed softly again.
"Even if the imperial tombs of a kingdom were not completely looted by the Great Zhou, they were destined to be broken into by tomb raiders. But with the country destroyed and the people of the Great Sui Dynasty now eyeing their own imperial tombs, do they intend to dig up treasures to restore their kingdom?"
The words "the country is destroyed and the family is ruined" caused Jiang Qingwan's heart to ache sharply.
The image of the palace, a scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, reappeared in my mind.
She suddenly stood up.
He picked up Little Red, who was about to steal a bite, and turned back to his room.
Mo Yunhan didn't know what was wrong with her, but he could tell she was unhappy. He tried to go in, but the door slammed shut, blocking him from entering.
