Chapter 524

He never thought about who he would be punished for. As long as he was not beaten, it would not hurt!

Demotion is even more impossible. If he can't even climb up...where else can he be demoted?

Shi Anxia chuckled, "As a father, you have no feelings for your children. Why do you expect them to have feelings for you?"

"Who said I have no feelings for my children?" Shi Chengxuan became angry and raised his voice to make himself more confident.

But Shi Anxia's calm voice still overwhelmed him, "If you had feelings, you wouldn't have let my brother be abused for so many years; you wouldn't have watched Shi Yunxing die and then gone out drinking and having fun as if nothing had happened; and you wouldn't have just treated me as your daughter after I got lost."

After she went missing, her eldest uncle never gave up and kept looking for her; her uncle asked people everywhere to look for her; her uncle's colleagues and friends also helped to look for her; even the Duke Dingguo's Mansion sent people out to look for her...but her biological father never looked for her.

Shi Chengxuan was speechless.

Shi Anxia asked again, "In your life, do you remember ever holding a child? You haven't even held Shi Yunxing, right?"

Shi Chengxuan suddenly seemed to hear the sadness hidden deep in his daughter's heart, and inexplicably felt sad himself.

Hearing his daughter's extremely indifferent voice hit his heart hard, "Today I call you father only because I still care about blood relationship and etiquette. But, let's not talk about feelings. Because, we don't have any."

Shi Chengxuan suddenly felt that the daughter in front of him became so strange.

The feeling is indescribable. It's like the world is so big, but I can't find a place to stay or anyone I know.

He is lonely.

No one loves him, and he loves no one.

He was scared, very scared.

He was silent. Finally, his tears dried up and he got to the point. "An Rou said that the Queen Mother has taken a liking to you and wants you to marry into the Prince of Jin's mansion as his principal wife."

Shi Anxia raised her eyebrows slightly and didn't respond.

Shi Chengxuan continued, "An Rou also said that the Prince of Jin will definitely become the emperor. When you, Xia Er, become the queen, our Jian'an Marquisate will be extremely powerful."

Shi Anxia sneered, "Did she also tell you that she would be the concubine of Prince Jin and a noble concubine in the future?"

Shi Chengxuan nodded, "Yes. It's such a great honor for a mansion to have a queen and a concubine. I was bewitched at the time and believed it."

"You believe it so easily?" Shi Anxia felt that it was not that simple.

Sure enough, Shi Chengxuan shook his head, got up, dragged out a box from under the bed, and carefully took out a statue of Guanyin from it.

The Guanyin statue was quite large, jade-white in color, with a warm luster, and it seemed to be filled with a faint glow all over.

Even people who don’t know much about jade can tell at a glance that this jade is not ordinary jade.

After seeing the statue of Guanyin, Shi Anxia's eyelids, heart, and temples all started beating.

I can't stay calm!

Her stupid father couldn't recognize this thing, but she recognized it, and she recognized it very well!

This thing had been in her hands for many years in her previous life until she died.

According to legend, the founding emperor of Beiyi accidentally got a priceless jade. He offered a large reward to skilled craftsmen and gathered 81 highly skilled craftsmen. It took them three years to polish out two things in total.

One is the imperial seal of the Beiyi royal family, and the other is this lifelike statue of Guanyin.

If the imperial seal is a symbol of the emperor's power, then this statue of Guanyin is a symbol of the empress dowager's status, passed down from generation to generation by successive empress dowagers.

On the third New Year's Eve after Emperor Rongguang ascended the throne in his previous life, this statue of Guanyin was stolen.

Later, it was found at the bottom of the lake at General Luo Yuheng's home. Secret letters between General Luo and the State of Wan were also found in General Luo's home.

There were more than 300 people in the Luo family who were related to him. All the men were beheaded and all the women became official prostitutes.

This case was handled personally by Li Changying, and it was closed so quickly that it makes one's scalp tingle when you think about it.
