Chapter 357: The Imperial Seal of the Former Dynasty
But when Su Xinxin heard Su Qianqian's words, she was slightly startled at first, looked carefully into Su Qianqian's eyes, then lowered her head to think for a moment, and said leisurely:
"I am really tired. I have to take care of all the family affairs. I am here to slack off for a while. What can I do?"
Su Xinxin raised her head tentatively and looked at Su Qianqian again.
Yin Yue Niang was also looking at Su Qian Qian. She was no longer the woman who had to swallow her anger in the backyard and was schemed against by her mother-in-law and husband. Living in her parents' home with four children, she also needed the ability to deal with all parties and observe people's words and expressions.
What Su Qianqian said made her feel that something had happened.
"If you can't bear it, then don't bear it. Although household chores are the responsibility of a clan wife, your mother-in-law is even more of a clan wife, and she is also a princess. Even if she makes a small mistake, you should be understanding and forgiving.
And you have two children to take care of... Of course, you can't completely refuse to help. Wouldn't your mother-in-law like you even more if you did that? ”
Su Qianqian's persuasiveness made her seem like a lobbyist sent by the wife of Duke Xuan.
Su Xinxin nodded slowly and thoughtfully: "Aning is right... this matter..."
"Don't rush this matter, but don't delay it for too long. What if you get tired and exhausted? You can only hand over the management of the cabinet."
Su Qianqian blinked and said.
Although Su Xinxin didn't know why her sister said that, she knew that Su Qianqian at this moment was completely different from the Su Qianqian who was worried about gains and losses in the past. There must be a reason for what she wanted to do.
"I understand. After the snow falls, my body will feel tired. I need to rest more. I will listen to Aning."
Su Xinxin curved her eyebrows, but the smile on her lips disappeared in a flash. She also understood that something must have happened, which made Su Qianqian remind her regardless of exposing herself.
[This is just the first step. Next, my sister and the child have to leave Duke Xuan’s Mansion... This is the most difficult part. 】
Su Qianqian said this in her heart, but Su Xinxin and Yin Yueniang could hardly hide the shock on their faces.
Leaving Duke Xuan’s Mansion means that something big is going to happen in Duke Xuan’s Mansion! What kind of serious matter could have caused the mother and son to leave?
[This matter is indeed difficult to handle. If we divorce, we will definitely not be able to take the children with us. How can your sister leave behind two children?
If she ran away with her two children, she would have to hide her identity for the rest of her life, and she could only take a part of the dowry with her. It would be difficult to guarantee the lives of her and her two children.
And that Prince Zhu, he has now repented and loves the children, and he also obeys your eldest sister and takes good care of her. If the children were to lose their father...】
The system sighed and began to worry quietly.
The more Su Xinxin listened, the more frightened she became. The situation had become so serious that she had to run away and hide her identity for the rest of her life, unless...
She couldn't believe it. No one in the Zhu family seemed to have such thoughts. Except for Zhu Min, his two younger brothers were also uneducated and spent their days idling around, eating, drinking and having fun.
As for those born to concubines, they were even more strictly controlled by their mother-in-law. The boys were not allowed to appear in public, and the girls rarely even went out of the house.
Who on earth is going to cause this horrible disaster?
[They cut a path through the mountains and built bridges over the rivers. If there is no road, they would carve out a path. It is a little difficult, but there are always more solutions than problems. On the other hand, think about it, under what conditions would their family of four have nothing to do with the Duke Xuan's Mansion? 】
【No connection at all...】
Not only the system was thinking about this sentence, Su Xinxin and Yin Yueniang were also secretly pondering it unconsciously.
At this time, the children had played enough in the snow and were brought in by the wet nurse and maids. Their little faces were rosy and their hair was combed into two cute little buns.
After washing their hands and setting the table for them, Su Qianqian specially prepared sweets that children love, as well as custard buns in the shapes of animals. The little kids ate with great joy, and Su Qianqian took the opportunity to touch and pinch them.
Su Xinxin had no appetite and actually looked a bit tired.
After dinner, Su Qianqian took out the gifts she brought for them. Su Xinxin and Yin Yueniang knew tacitly that Su Qianqian must have gone out.
She also brought some fresh fruits and vegetables to the two families. Although Anmin Vegetable Store had already started selling greenhouse vegetables, which were snapped up by the people of Xijing every day, the quality of those vegetables was still very different from those produced in Su Qianqian's own space.
After seeing the two and the child off, Su Qianqian asked Su Xing to invite the Sixth Young Master to the study, and then invite Qin Hanzhang as well. It was holiday time in the Imperial College, and Qin Hanjue was studying in his own yard.
Soon Qin Hanjue came in a hurry. It was rare for Su Qianqian to look for him for something, and he had a sense of mission that he was finally being put to use.
When Qin Hanzhang entered the room, Qin Hanjue was already getting impatient:
"Third brother, why are you so slow? You don't have the decisiveness of a general at all."
Qin Hanzhang raised his eyebrows and looked at him. Qin Hanjue still had his neck straight, but his eyes looked away.
"What's the matter?" Qin Hanzhang asked casually, but his eyes were looking at Su Qianqian with a serious expression.
"I have two things here, come and take a look." Su Qianqian took out the wooden box found on the cliff of Yunhe Mountain.
When Qin Hanjue opened the wooden box and saw the seal on it, his expression became solemn and he reached out to take it carefully.
"I don't recognize the words on it, so I called Han Jue. This picture and key are also in this wooden box."
Su Qianqian handed the key and the map to Qin Hanzhang, and took out the words she had drawn on the wall.
"Third sister-in-law, where did you get it?" Qin Hanjue picked up the ink on the desk, carefully pressed the seal on it and dipped it, then made a square seal on the paper and asked seriously.
"I found it accidentally in a cave on the cliff of Yunhe Mountain. Is there anything special about it?"
Su Qianqian looked at the seal and felt that it was heavy and elegant, and there was nothing special about it.
"If this seal is real... this is the seal of the last emperor of the previous dynasty. Although it is not the imperial seal, it is used to mobilize troops... Yunhe Mountain, could it be the last hiding place of the last emperor of the previous dynasty?"
Qin Hanjue looked at the seal, unable to hide his shock.
"It turned out to be the emperor of the previous dynasty..." Su Qianqian felt that this was simply too much of a coincidence, and quickly pushed the paper over again:
"Look at this again. This is engraved on the cave wall. What does it say?"
Qin Hanjue took it and read it for a quarter of an hour before he looked up and said, "The words in it are incredible. I don't know if I recognized it correctly."
"What?" Qin Hanzhang asked in a deep voice.
"It is said that this is the last place where Milu and the last emperor lived. The treasure was left to the descendants of Zhu and Mi in the future. They must restore the country to continue the orthodoxy..."
Qin Hanjue finished reading and looked up at Qin Hanzhang hesitantly: "Third brother, if this thing is real, just give it to His Majesty. If it is fake..."
Qin Hanzhang understood what Qin Hanjue meant. If he took out a fake one, it would mean that the Wuning Marquisate was misleading court officials and bringing up the remnants of the previous dynasty.
"No matter whether it is true or false, this thing cannot be taken out!" Su Qianqian said softly.
