Chapter 1089: Hardness

King Liang felt unlucky. He finally found some traces and it turned out to be a tomb. "My son found the tomb of the Rong family. There are three tombs. If you want to confirm the authenticity, you need to open the coffin and check the burial objects."

The emperor's hope was extinguished. He should have known that it was impossible for anyone to survive the roundup of multiple families. He then narrowed his eyes and asked, "Have you found out who repaired the tomb for them?"

King Liang shook his head, "My son has found the village. The people who helped with the burial back then are almost all dead these years. I don't have a deep impression of those who were still alive. My son has found it, so let's follow the north to find it."

It was luck that he was able to find it. Firstly, he didn't have any portraits of the Rong family, and secondly, it had been so many years. When the Rong family was destroyed, the previous dynasty was still in existence!

The emperor did not want to disturb the Rong family members who were buried in peace. He was more concerned about who buried the Rong family members.

The prince continued, "Father, the souls of the Rong family are wandering outside. They long to return home. Their heroic spirits should return to their ancestral tombs to rest in peace."

The emperor looked at the prince, then at King Liang, and said, "Send someone to transport the coffin back to the capital, and open it when we get there."

Prince Liang really regretted checking the living members of the Rong family. He only hoped that after opening the coffin this time, it would be proven that the person was a real member of the Rong family, so that he could get away with it.

At the Mansion of Marquis Yao, Yao Wenqi had been sending people to follow Prince Liang. When Prince Liang found the tomb of the Rong family, Yao Wenqi frowned. He remembered his father once said that all the members of the Rong family were dead. They had the genealogy of the Rong family, and no one who escaped was spared. His father had expressed regret more than once that the Rong family members were too stubborn and would rather commit suicide than be caught alive.

There were more than a dozen people who tried to catch the escaped members of the Rong family. All of them wanted to catch the escaped members of the Rong family, because although they divided up the Rong family's wealth, it was not as they expected. The Rong family was rich enough to rival a country. Later they found out that the emperor's mother had a backup plan, and the money used by the emperor for the rebellion might have come from the Rong family.

But my father still felt that it was not right. A cunning rabbit has three burrows, let alone an old fox from the Rong family. The old fox would not put all the chips on a married woman.

When my father was dying, he kept saying that Rong Jia would rather die and hide all the secrets than live.

Yao Wenqi stood up and thought in circles. No, it was wrong. The people who were killed during the encirclement and suppression campaign would never have buried them in peace. Was the genealogy in his father's hand correct? His heart was beating violently. If the genealogy was false, then there were still people alive back then.

The next night, Changyi returned home. Zhulan kept saying, "He must have suffered a lot at sea. He has lost a lot of weight."

Chang Yi touched his belly which had become fatter, "Mom, my son."

Zhou Shuren interrupted, "Indeed, I have lost weight."

Chang Yi swallowed what he was about to say, "Yes, my son has indeed lost weight."

Zhao's eyes were filled with tears, but they stopped immediately. Yu Shuang smiled secretly with her lips pursed, and Dad shuddered when he saw Grandpa.

Zhou Shuren cleared his throat, "Just came back from the palace?"

Chang Yi was excited, "Dad, my son has been promoted. Now he is a seventh-rank official, a true seventh-rank official."

Zhou Shuren's beard curled up, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "Good boy, you did a good job."

Chang Yi grinned. He was more pleased with his father's praise than the emperor's. He was much more confident this time. "Dad, I will continue to work hard and will never embarrass you."

At this point, Chang Yi hurriedly asked, "Mom, have you seen what my son brought back?"

Zhulan felt that her child was particularly filial. Changyi brought back a lot of good things. "I saw it. You said that you were still thinking about home when you were away on business. Your father and I have everything we need."

Chang Yi grinned, "It is the son's duty to honor his parents. If there was room, I would have bought more."

Zhulan looked at Zhao, who was looking at her eagerly, and said with a smile, "Okay, you are tired today, go back and have a rest, we will chat tomorrow."

Chang Yi was indeed tired. He would take a day off tomorrow, so he did not stay long. "Dad and Mom, I will go back first."

Zhou Shuren hummed, "Go to bed early."

Changyi came back late. He had dinner in the palace before coming back. Now it was almost time to rest. If it weren't for waiting for Changyi, each room should have gone back to rest long ago.

When the eldest wife returned to the courtyard, Li grumbled, "The second son has become a seventh-rank official. The second son is really amazing. He has been promoted so quickly."

Zhou Lao Da was still somewhat envious, but he did not have the ability of his second brother. "My second brother took the risk on this mission. Dad said that glory is proportional to effort. I don't know how many dangers my second brother went through to get promoted."

Li was not jealous. She had many sons and she could rely on them in the future. She just felt a little sad. "The second son has been promoted. The second branch has gained confidence. I am very happy for Zhao. I felt tired when I saw Zhao in the past."

Boss Zhou was amused, "I didn't expect you to see it so clearly."

Li rolled her eyes and said, "I know a lot. I won't say any more. Let's go to sleep."

In the second room, Yu Shuang took her sister back to the guest room. Yu Die changed her clothes and sat on her sister's bed, tilting her head, "Sister, you are particularly happy today."

Yu Shuang put down the comb in her hand, "Because Dad is back."

Yudie shook her head, "No, just now in grandma's room, sister was happier than when she knew dad was back."

Yu Shuang didn't even comb her hair and sat on the bed, "Since Daddy got promoted, I'm even happier."

"What's the joy of being promoted?"

Yu Shuang hugged her little sister and said, "You are still young and don't understand. Dad's promotion is very important to our family."

After her father became an official, their family changed, and she, the eldest daughter, was relieved of all her burdens.

Yudie still didn't understand, but she was happy as long as her sister and brother were happy.

The next day, Chang Yi rested, ate, and stayed in the main courtyard to chat with his mother. "This time, my status has changed, and what I see has changed. I used to only care about myself, but this time I learned a lot. Mother, I am very happy. Thank you for planning for me."

Zhulan was deeply touched. Changyi had never been so high-spirited before. "Mother is happy for you, too. Mother hopes you won't lose your original intention. My son, a gentleman has plans and not plans. Mother hopes you can plan things uprightly in the future. These little tricksters won't get far."

Chang Yi remembered it in his heart. He had communicated with his mother a lot, and he remembered many of her words. "Mom, I have remembered everything."

Zhulan mentioned the abnormal weather. "You are not in the country, so you don't understand the situation there. What do you think about the abnormal weather?"

Chang Yi heard a lot of news after getting off the ship. His daughter-in-law also told him about the situation at home yesterday. Chang Yi thought a lot and said, "My son also has some ideas, but they are not mature yet. Let him think about it carefully."

Zhulan did not continue to ask, but changed the topic, "When you return to Beijing, spend more time with your wife."

Chang Yi couldn't help but blushing, thinking that he was blocked at the door by a young lady early in the morning, which was a bit embarrassing.
