Chapter 409 The Predestined One
How could Emperor Yongping not agree? His own granddaughter said she wanted to eat the cakes made by her mother. How could he stop her?
"Go back and come back after you finish eating."
But the tone sounded so lost.
"Your Majesty, Shu'er is full and will come back to accompany you."
Chu Qinshu was not a fool either. She could see the loss in Emperor Yongping's mood and immediately spoke up to comfort him.
She is just a baby, she doesn't remember anything, hehe.
"Yeah, okay."
Emperor Yongping agreed with a smile, and his mood improved a little.
After Chu Chengyi took his leave, he walked out holding Chu Qinshu.
Chu Qinshu lay on his back and said goodbye to Emperor Yongping.
The little hand was shaking, which made Emperor Yongping feel guilty and sad.
The father and daughter returned to the East Palace and first went to Jinseyuan to ask Yu Jinyi to make the cakes that Chu Qinshu liked, and then went straight to the study in the main courtyard.
"Daddy, daddy, Shu'er found the legendary treasure..."
After returning to the study, Chu Qinshu couldn't wait to tell her about the ancient tomb.
"Shu'er means that to open the treasure, we also need the jade pendant in Daddy's hand?"
As Chu Chengyi asked, he reached out to open the secret compartment under the desk and took out a wooden box.
After opening it, he pushed the box in front of Chu Qinshu and said, "Shu'er, look, is this the one?"
This piece was exactly what he had asked someone to get from Concubine Xian, and he kept it in the study after using it.
As a descendant of the royal family, he had heard the legend when he was young. Regardless of whether he took it seriously or not, now that the jade pendant was in his hands, there was no reason for him to throw it away.
"Daddy, wait a moment. Shu'er will let Xiao Hulu compare them."
Chu Qinshu picked up the jade pendant and threw it into the space. Xiao Hulu placed the two jade pendants side by side, and after comparing them, he quickly gave a positive answer.
"Dad, it's this jade pendant."
Chu Qinshu nodded, feeling a little excited.
This is as much wealth as the treasuries of the five states in Changxing. It will soon be hers. How can this not excite people?
"Then Shu'er can take it and play with it."
Chu Chengyi tapped Chu Qinshu's little nose, not having the slightest thought about the treasure.
"Dad, would you please go with Shu'er?"
Before Chu Qinshu asked for the jade pendant, she had already decided to share some of the treasure with Chu Chengyi. If Chu Chengyi didn't take the initiative to ask for it, she couldn't be stingy.
"Shu'er, do you need Daddy to accompany you? Shu'er, aren't you afraid that Daddy will divide your treasure?"
Chu Chengyi teases Chu Qinshu, who wouldn’t be curious about the legendary treasure?
But for him, the best destination for the treasure is to fall into the hands of his daughter.
So, although he was curious, whether he could see it with his own eyes was not that important.
"If you need it, I'm not afraid. I'll share it with Daddy."
Chu Qinshu nodded her head seriously, with reluctance and determination in her eyes.
"Okay, then Dad will accompany Shu'er for a trip."
Chu Chengyi looked at his daughter's little expression and couldn't help laughing in his heart.
The daughter has been very strict about her things since she was little. Not to mention her, even her mother and two brothers have never taken a penny from her.
Now that he had this treasure, he wanted to see how his daughter would divide it among him.
Seeing that her father no longer refused, Chu Qinshu put away her reluctance and asked King Eagle and King Falcon to come out and take them to the ancient tomb.
This time they still wore the invisibility talisman the whole time, and they teleported from the East Palace to the ancient tomb instantly. Even Emperor Yongping would not have thought that they would go to the ancient tomb.
No one had visited the ancient tomb for a long time. Behind the tomb there was a cliff and a fast-flowing river, so no one would notice their whereabouts.
The Eagle King flew to the depression as instructed, and Chu Qinshu successfully embedded the two jade pendants into it.
However, there was still no response.
"Master, this jade pendant may need a drop of blood to wake it up."
Little Gourd reminded.
It doesn't make sense that there would be no reaction after it was inserted so perfectly.
Legends are legends, but there would never be such a coincidence.
Therefore, it must be that the jade pendant has not been awakened, so it cannot be opened.
"Blood? But we don't have any members of the Zhang family."
Chu Qinshu looked at her chubby hands and wondered if her blood vessels weren't working.
"Master, how could you take your own lies seriously? This kind of jade pendant that needs a drop of blood to wake up is no longer an ordinary jade pendant. Not everyone's blood will work.
Under normal circumstances, they need to encounter the blood of a destined person before they can be awakened."
Little Gourd had to remind his master again who wrote those books, as his master might have forgotten them long ago.
Alas, it seems that the two-year-old master will soon become a real little baby.
"Oh? Then you want to try my blood?"
Chu Qinshu looked at her chubby little hands again, wondering whether she should bleed.
There were always two voices in her heart, one eager to try, and the other crying.
"Of course I have to let your blood flow, but Little Gourd doesn't have any blood to let flow."
Xiao Hulu's tone left no doubt. There were only two people here, and his master's origin and mission made him more likely to be the destined person for the jade pendant.
As for the master's father, a rescued cannon fodder, even bleeding could not wake the jade pendant.
"Shu'er, just prick it with a needle. It won't hurt."
Seeing that Chu Qinshu was hesitant and unable to make up her mind, Chu Chengyi hugged her tighter and encouraged her to be brave.
"Oh, Daddy will help Shuer tie the knot."
Chu Qinshu took out an embroidery needle from the space, handed it to Chu Chengyi, and then stretched out her little fleshy hand in front of him.
She couldn't do it herself, but she wasn't afraid when someone else did it for her.
"good."
Chu Chengyi took the embroidery needle, suppressed his heartache for his daughter, and gently pricked her fattest middle finger.
When the blood beads oozed out, the jade pendant was placed underneath. After the jade pendant received a drop of blood, unexpected changes immediately occurred.
The two jade pendants flew into the air in an instant. After a flash of golden light and a flash of silver light, the two jade pendants were placed side by side and embedded into one.
By the time they returned to Chu Qinshu's hands, they had turned into a palm-sized double-shaped phoenix pendant, with the parts connected tightly together, as if they had been born as one.
The color is no longer dull and ordinary as before, but is now shining with a white luster, as if it is newly born.
"Master, what Little Gourd said is right, right? You are the destined one for this pair of jade pendants, and the true owner of this treasure."
Little Gourd was quite proud of himself when the knowledge he had learned was verified.
"Shu'er, give it a try. Maybe you can really open the treasure this time."
Chu Chengyi was also a little excited. He really didn't expect that there would be a day when he would be able to verify the legendary things with his own eyes.
She never expected that the two important jade pendants of the Zhang family would end up in her daughter's hands by some strange coincidence.
Fuxing's power was indeed beyond the imagination of a mortal like him.
"Well, let's try it now."
Chu Qinshu was of course also excited. The chosen one, that was her.
This time she just placed the jade pendant into the depression, and the jade pendant naturally adjusted its angle and quickly became one with the depression.
After a few breaths, a loud bang was heard from the side of the cliff.
Several people looked at the same time, and saw a pitch-black hole had appeared there.
It is big enough for an adult to enter and exit, and there seems to be a warm light coming from inside.
