Chapter 1621
Yu Sujun stood quietly in the middle of the room.
It was dusk at that time, and shadows gathered everywhere, shrouding her in gloomy shadows.
Her voice was terribly cold. "My husband, tell me what you are talking about. Don't you want to use my mouth to beg Xia'er?"
I almost got into trouble, but luckily I reacted quickly.
Shi Chengyi blushed, "Nonsense, how could I mean that?"
"There is no best." Yu Sujun was more indifferent than ever before. She said these four words, turned around and walked out.
Shi Chengyi quietly looked at his wife's back, feeling indescribably aggrieved and sad.
It turns out that losing someone is just a matter of one sentence. No matter how hard you try to keep them warm, it won't last forever.
He actually never thought of asking Yu Sujun to seek help from others because he knew better than anyone that Emperor Mingde had already shown leniency to his daughter Anxin so that she could survive.
Shi Anxin shouldn't have been alive.
At first he thought that Emperor Mingde did it for Shi Anxia's sake, but later he realized that perhaps it was more for Tang Chujun's sake.
After listening to Shi Anxin's experience last night, Yu Sujun asked him if he could tell Xia'er the truth.
Shi Chengyi thought about it and replied, "Okay."
It was clearly her who proposed the matter, but now she thought that he wanted to use her to ask Xia'er to find a way to save Anxin.
Shi Chengyi's heart felt like it was cut open, and blood began to seep out. It turned out that being wronged was such a painful feeling.
He suddenly understood how hurtful and heartbreaking his words, "You just didn't realize that she was your biological daughter," were.
All the bitter fruits can only be swallowed by oneself. Shi Chengyi sat in the chair for a long time without moving.
The darkness enveloped him completely, shrouding him in black.
Shi Yunzhou came back from the academy, entered the house, lit the lamp, and called him respectfully, "Father, mother asked you to go to dinner."
Shi Chengyi tried hard to smile, "Okay, I'll go right away."
The next day, a piece of bombshell news spread throughout the capital city: there was another secret under a phoenix tree in Yunqi Academy.
The entrance is at the bottom of the tree, and underneath is a solid underground stone chamber, where a large number of gold, silver, jewelry and jade artifacts are buried.
According to historical records, this treasure was probably collected by a general of the previous dynasty and hidden here.
At that time, the country was not here. It was only later because of the natural barrier of Bixia Pass that the emperor moved the capital here.
Later, the general rebelled and his entire family was executed, so the house was given to the ancestors of the Jian'an Marquis Mansion.
Until now, the underground world has finally been discovered. The current Marquis of Jian'an Shi Yunqi and the eldest son Shi Chengyi presented the treasure to the court to fill the national treasury, help the emperor govern the country and recover lost territory.
As soon as this news came out, those who had questioned the Shi and Wei families being imperial merchants all shut up.
With so much wealth, who wouldn't be willing to turn it over to the national treasury? If you take out a little from time to time, who would notice?
Tsk, it’s said that Marquis Jian’an is highly conscious and highly valued by the Emperor!
Emperor Mingde also expressed in the court that "your loyalty is admirable", and not only conferred the title of "Hanlin scholar" on Shi Yunqi, Marquis of Jian'an, but also allowed him to enter and leave the Simo Pavilion freely.
In addition, Emperor Mingde also re-employed Shi Chengyi, which was also what Shi Anxia expected.
Her uncle is capable. As long as he keeps his mind straight and does not go astray, he will eventually make contributions to the court by taking one step at a time.
Although his position was low and he was just a Dianshi, Shi Chengyi was very surprised that he could still enter the officialdom.
His niece paved the way for his hard-earned career. It was up to him to walk the road ahead.
