Chapter 136 Not Enough
Ye Lanzhou was obviously very confident in her own methods. She was not very shocked when she knew that the Dali Temple had not found out. When Xie Chengyan continued talking, she picked up the chopsticks again and took a bite of the food calmly.
Xie Chengyan noticed this action, but he didn't say anything. He just continued, "The Ye Mansion's ancestral hall was severely burned. Old Madam Ye's tombstone has been burned to ashes. As for that young lady Deng..."
He paused. Ye Lanzhou, hearing this, remembered that it had been a long time since she'd heard from Deng Xiaoniang. She'd previously given her her mother's belongings, a favor she'd done her. She still had the dark gold tiger talisman with her. Suddenly remembering it, she felt a burning sensation in her chest.
He continued, "Mrs. Deng in the Ye Mansion is doing well. The marriage between the Pei and Ye families did not affect her. I think the Ministry of Personnel has recently arranged for her son, Ye Anheng, to enter the court."
Ye Lanzhou guessed that the Black Gold Tiger Talisman was not her mother's. She had always thought that the relic was a military talisman or something similar. Furthermore, her mother had previously saved Xie Chengyan and his group in Nanyang, so she had always believed that the Black Gold Tiger Talisman must have been dropped by Xie Chengyan.
She took out the tiger talisman from her bosom, placed it in front of Xie Chengyan, and asked, "Is this yours? Is it a military talisman?"
Xie Chengyan took a quick look and saw that the tiger talisman was pure black with only a few strands of gold outlined on the corners. This thing was indeed a military talisman, but it was not his. The military talisman in Jinling back then was a red gold black tortoise talisman, of the same size and material, but it was not the one he had with him back then.
He shook his head and said, "Where did this come from?"
Ye Lanzhou was almost certain that this thing belonged to Xie Chengyan, so she dared to ask this. Her mother had never met anyone with military power in her life. The only person who had accidentally saved the lives of Xie Chengyan and Sun Yunshu was her mother. Apart from him, Ye Lanzhou really couldn't think of anyone else.
Since it wasn't Xie Chengyan, he shouldn't know about this matter. Ye Lanzhou kept silent about the origin of the military token.
Xie Chengyan saw her pursed lips and knew she didn't want to talk, so he didn't force her. "If you don't want to talk, forget it, but the person who has this thing is not ordinary, and as far as I know, he's dead. Keep it well and don't let anyone else know. In the future... it might save your life."
Ye Lanzhou was confused and took the black gold tiger talisman in his hand to look at it again.
Xie Chengyan suddenly changed the subject, raising his eyebrows slightly: "You have finally avenged your great hatred, congratulations." He felt this way, but Ye Lanzhou didn't think so. Old Madam Ye's tombstone was destroyed, Madam Ye was seriously ill, and Ye Qingshang died tragically. It seemed that she had avenged her mother, but in her opinion—
not enough!
Ye Zhixing hadn't done anything yet. Madam Ye was bullying the people in the mansion, and Ye Zhixing was the head of the family. Without his tacit approval, how could Madam Ye dare to act so domineeringly? He, Ye Zhixing, was also guilty of killing his mother.
It's just a pity that she didn't do anything extreme at that time. After causing such a fuss at the wedding, she was taken to the palace by Xie Chengyan, so Ye Zhixing was not able to get the punishment he deserved.
She was lost in thought until a loud noise outside the window attracted them both. This dining room was where they had just watched the wedding procession.
The two men looked at each other, then walked to the corridor outside the door and saw Pei Song holding the jar in his arms tightly under the Wanhe Tower. The man standing opposite him was tall and thin, but he could support the inspection uniform on his body. He had sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, and a face like a jade.
Is this... Chu Xiu?
