Chapter 420: Lighting Fireworks



"But Your Majesty, you should also explain the origin of that thing. What exactly is that box? Or, Your Majesty, you are not deceiving anyone."

He implicitly admitted that this thing was not a mysterious box at all.

"This thing has been in the Crane family for the past 40 years. It was given to Crane State by the Crane family's grandmother. It was meant to be the last gift from the other mothers before they passed away."

"No precious things were placed inside. Only an emerald dagger that his mother used to carry with her was placed inside. The dagger was very beautiful and charming, and its appearance was more like the jewel on the top of the box."

Su Lie's face was cold, he was half believing and half doubting.

Zhao Xin continued.

"During the He family's internal strife a few years ago, the mysterious treasure box was lost in Tianshan. It later fell into the hands of those old guys. Perhaps they didn't understand the meaning of the box or for some other reason, they were unwilling to take it into their possession."

"Your Majesty, there is now a way to completely dispel your belief that this broken box is real."

Zhao Xin was puzzled, wondering how this could be proven.

"It's snowing outside. If I open this thing and let the snowflakes put it inside, the mysterious box will not let it pass by, and it will definitely not melt."

If it were fake, it would have heated up and melted when the box was sealed.

Zhao Xin is very generous and down-to-earth.

"Xiao Chenzi, use this thing to send up some snowflakes outside."

?

Xiao Chenzi was stunned.

"Your Majesty, your request... the snowflakes will melt as soon as they are brought in."

Besides, it will become the accumulated snow, without its shape and beauty, only its deep hardness.

"Stop talking nonsense and go."

Xiao Chenzi sighed, picked up the box on the table, took it outside, put two small snowflakes on it, covered it with a lid, and brought it in.

There was still a thin layer of snowflakes on the box.

"Your Majesty, if this is the case now, then the snowflakes will definitely not melt. Let me reveal the secret to Your Majesty today!"

“…”

Snap——

The box was opened, and it still had the catapult-style structure. He was stunned. Wasn't the way the box was opened before an ordinary style? How come it was exactly the catapult-style structure like when the invitation was placed before?

Zhao Xin touched a small bump underneath and pressed it.

The two snowflakes inside still had their six sharp corners, safe and sound. They even seemed to be cuddling together with a hint of happiness. It had to be said that this was a rather... big blow to Su Lie.

This treasure went through the house of that greedy villain and then fell into Zhao Xin's hands. It sounds so incongruous.

He is not that kind of person in the Evil Mansion!

"So now I have found the mysterious box, and the next step is to get the Tianshan grass on Tianshan Mountain, right?"

Su Lie nodded, it was indeed true.

"In that case, I have already solved the first problem for you. The second problem can be solved by the wise men of your Evil House. After all, my abilities are limited."

Su Lie pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling that this was probably different from what he expected.

"No, Your Majesty, what I'm looking for now is the Tianshan grass, or some other medicine that can cure my father's illness. Now I've only found this box, and it seems that it can't save his life!"

However, Zhao Xin remembered that He Zhizhou had given him a firework before, and told him that if he found the mysterious box, he should set off the firework and let him know.

Back then, due to his arrogance, he was allowed to take the box himself. Perhaps if Zhao Xin were to light the fireworks now... he would probably understand.

So it was delayed until evening.

Swoosh——

Crackling, a strange pattern was drawn in the night sky.

"Your Majesty, someone is setting off fireworks in Daqin. They are probably the fireworks we are discussing."

Talking about command fireworks, after being lit, they summon the main generals to meet at a certain location. This kind of fireworks is usually set off when the enemy army is attacking.

But looking at the location...

Kyoto?

So it was Zhao Xin who set off the fireworks. Apart from a few of his generals who had given them these fireworks, the only person he could give them to was Zhao Xin.

It seems he hadn't set off the fireworks that time. There's no way he set off the fireworks this time... he was just having fun.

"Your Majesty, what are you doing?"

"Can't you see? I'm going to the Great Qin Capital Region in a hurry."

Since I've given him these fireworks, I can't just leave them there. It would be best to ask him if he's okay, and at the same time, I'm repaying his kindness.

“…”

The king was in a good mood and ran for an hour or two to the Kyoto area to find the emperor and ask him why the fireworks were set off.

You are worthy of being the king.

"Now, don't let me hear about its disadvantages, or I'll kill you without mercy. Do you understand?"

Rather than saying it's a disadvantage, it's better to say that we shouldn't cause trouble in this small town. Right now, everything is quiet, and we just need to make sure that the top generals don't start a fight over trivial matters and cause trouble.

How many times before had I gotten into trouble because of such trivial matters? In the end, they reported it to the authorities, and those who did not have local household registration also suffered losses.

I ate a few days of terrible prison food for nothing.

So Tsuru No Shu rode his horse to Kyoto. When he arrived, exhausted, the two men had already played nearly ten games of Go.

They were all enjoying themselves. They were the only two in the room, and this palace was the only one brightly lit, allowing He Zhizhou to quickly identify it and enter.

"Who dares to trespass without permission..."

Before he could finish his words, the dazzling gold medal landed directly in the servant's arms.
