Chapter 428: All Yours
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Lu Ziming entered the library, his heart surged with excitement. He was one step closer to the treasure.
He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and began to search.
It was especially smooth. He had only searched for 15 minutes before he found the other half of the Records of Wonders. It was as if it had been prepared for him.
However, his rationality was already occupied by the joy of finding the wondrous book. He did not think about this problem at all. He flipped through the book and quickly left the library.
Outside, he found Xin Ziyuan. Disappointed, he said, “Ziyuan, there are no books in the library that I want.”
“No?” Xin Ziyuan was surprised. “Then why don’t you look for it again?”
Lu Ziming shook his head and said in disappointment, “No means no. There’s no point in looking anymore. The palace is dangerous. I’ll leave first.”
Xin Ziyuan had no choice. “I’ll send you out.”
Chu Qingzhi followed Lu Ziming all the way to the inn. She wanted to see what was so special about the book.
Lu Ziming closed the door and window as soon as he entered the room. He sealed the room from the inside and took out the two halves of the Records of Wonders. He placed them on the table, took out the needle and thread, and began to suture them.
The way the man used a needle and thread was really strange.
However, it was undeniable that Lu Ziming’s needlework was quite good. He sewed it neatly, as if he had done it many times.
The book was carefully sewn. He gently opened it and flipped to the back half of the joint to read it carefully.
Chu Qingzhi took out the bell and circulated her spiritual power. With a shake, Lu Ziming sat there motionless. Chu Qingzhi flew into the room through the window and took the book from Lu Ziming’s hand.
She started reading from the first page.
The book was about the strange things that happened in the eastern border. The first strange thing…
It was about a person going to the market and seeing a brand new sheepskin robe that was only sold for four taels of silver. This was undoubtedly a huge bargain. He immediately bought it.
After buying it, he bragged to the others, feeling very proud.
At this moment, someone said, “Don’t be happy too early. The sheepskin robe is only sold for four taels of silver. It might be a lie. How do you know that it’s not a fake?”
When the man heard this, he quickly placed the robe on the table and examined it carefully. Then, he discovered something.
This robe was made of kraft paper, and the wool was stuck to the paper.
That person was furious and planned to use the same trick to deceive others.
The next morning, he entered the market and sold the fake robe he bought yesterday for six taels of silver.
After returning, he showed off again. Not only did he recover his losses, but he also earned two taels.
Another person said, “Don’t be happy too early. There are so many scams nowadays. How do you know that your money is not fake?”
That person hesitated. “Can money be fake?””
He immediately took the silver to the silver shop. The silversmith checked it and saw that they were all lead ingots.
She continued to read. When she reached the tenth story, she finally saw what she wanted to see.
The ancient family’s surname was Nalan. They had lived in the eastern border for generations and had witnessed the rise and fall of history for more than 700 years. However, after the earthquake, they disappeared into thin air.
This book was recorded after the earthquake. At that time, someone felt that it was strange and recorded it in the book.
There were 20 cities in the eastern border. The Nalan family was located in a place called Wanping City, which was a place more than 300 years ago. The dynasty had changed twice, and the name of many places had changed.
Most importantly, the earthquake was huge. Many books and information had disappeared with the earthquake. Even if they found Wanping City, which was so big, where was the exact location of the family?
There was another piece of information. The Nalan family liked to collect antiques and treasures. Their family had countless treasures. It was a publicly recognized treasure vault.
There weren’t many records. It felt like the person who recorded had improvised some words.
Chu Qingzhi continued reading the rest of the content…
Someone had once seen a mirage in midair. That scene was like the Nalan family.
Later on, the Nalan family was demonized…
She quickly finished reading the contents of the book. She placed the book back in Lu Ziming’s hand and said softly, “I’ll rely on you for the rest.”
Chu Qingzhi left the inn.
Lu Ziming blinked and woke up. He looked at the slightly swaying flame and felt that something was wrong. However, his attention was quickly attracted by the book and he did not have the time to think about anything else.
At the Tianyue Inn in the capital.
Lin Yingmin was stunned for a long time after hearing Consort Xin’s words. “Mother, is what you said true?”
Consort Xin nodded and looked at Lin Yingmin with a very loving gaze. “Yingmin, every word I said is true. You are the son of the late emperor. Back then, I was weak and escaped to a nunnery. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have let you suffer so much.”
Lin Yingmin knew very well that if his mother hadn’t run away, he wouldn’t have existed. “Mother, no matter what, thank you for giving birth to me.”
Consort Xin smiled gently and thought to herself, “Let’s not talk about the past. From now on, I want my son to get everything he deserves.”
Lin Yingmin didn’t know what his mother was thinking. “Mother, why did you bring me to the capital?”
Consort Xin said concisely, “To acknowledge your ancestors and return to the family.”
This news exploded in Lin Yingmin’s mind like a thunderclap. “Mother, that’s the royal family. We…”
Consort Xin patted the back of Lin Yingmin’s hand and said gently, “Don’t worry. Since I dared to come to the capital, I’m naturally fully prepared.”
Lin Yingmin was still under a lot of pressure. “Mother…”
Consort Xin looked at her son and said solemnly, “You’re a natural prince, so you should live a noble life. Going back now is just to take back what you deserve. It’s only right.”
Lin Yingmin remained silent. Although he said that, he still felt flustered.
Consort Xin’s voice softened. “With me around, I will pave the way for you.”
Consort Xin stood up and patted Lin Yingmin’s shoulder gently. “Rest. We’ll enter the palace tomorrow morning.”
Lin Yingmin nodded, feeling a little lost. “Mother, take care.”
After Consort Xin left, Lin Yingmin fell into his own thoughts. He couldn’t help but think of Chu Qingzhi…
“Qingzhi, if I become a prince, are you willing to be with me?”
General’s mansion.
Tang Jinghong sat at the stone table in the courtyard and waited for Chu Qingzhi. There was some supper on the table and it was slowly steaming.
Chu Qingzhi flew to the courtyard. “Jinghong.”
Tang Jinghong waved at Chu Qingzhi. “Come, I’ve prepared supper for you.”
Chu Qingzhi walked over and joked, “I’m afraid I’ll gain weight if I eat like this every day.”
Tang Jinghong pinched Chu Qingzhi’s wrist. She was so thin and was still far from being fat. “Don’t be afraid. I like you no matter what.”
Chu Qingzhi smiled. It was not easy to hear the word “like” from Jinghong. “Then I’ll eat.”
Tang Jinghong quickly handed her the chopsticks. “They’re all yours..”
