Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 704

Those who don’t listen, get out!

Shi Anxia stepped out from behind Tang Chuyu and asked gently, "Grandfather, have you thought it through? Do you really want to not cry until you see the coffin?"

It would have been better if she didn't speak. As soon as she spoke, Tang Songlin immediately knew why his daughter, who had always been confused and timid, suddenly turned from a quail into an eagle.

Finally found the source!

He stood with his hands behind his back, glaring, and snorted, "Do you have evidence?"

Shi Anxia shook her head obediently.

Tang Songlin laughed a few times, arrogant, relieved, and shameless, "Then where did you hear this nonsense from?"

Shi Anxia cast his eyes toward the blue sky outside the window and said softly, "God is watching what we do, Grandfather! Can you honestly say that what my mother said just now was not true?"

Tang Songlin laughed even more arrogantly, "I won't pursue where you heard those unfounded words from. Don't ruin the relationship of a family because of hearsay."

He came to his senses now. The relationship cannot be too awkward. After all, Shi Yunqi and his sister have a promising future, and they still have to talk about their relationship.

The annoying granddaughter in front of me is a princess appointed by the emperor!

He had to act very magnanimous to get over this.

But it was obvious that Shi Anxia was not willing to let the past go. "Once a person has done something, it will leave traces. If you really want to find evidence, you may find it. Grandfather, as long as you admit it and return the money to the Ming family, this matter can be put behind you. Why make such an ugly scene?"

She really had no evidence to prove that the Ming family took the silver and gave it to the Duke of Protectorate to donate to the country for disaster relief.

Tang Chuyu, who was also the Duke of Protectorate in his previous life, met the Ming family by chance. It was after listening to the Ming family talk about the past that he learned the truth.

The old man of the Ming family couldn't close his eyes until he died, and he was still hoping that Tang Songlin would have a change of heart one day and come to visit the Ming family.

Even if they don't return the money or give the title, they should at least say something to acknowledge that the Ming family did make contributions to the country.

But not only did they not get Tang Songlin's words, they were also driven out when they arrived. Tang Songlin also sent people to threaten the Ming family, saying that if they talked nonsense outside, they would be killed without a burial place.

After learning about this, Empress Dowager Shi Anxia conferred titles on the Ming family under other pretexts, thus enabling the Ming family to cross the social class barrier.

Because when the country was in crisis, the Ming family's children followed Tang Xinghe to the battlefield, and almost half of the Ming family's men were killed. Even those who came back alive, few had intact limbs.

But there is no evidence for the fundraising. Unless... Tang Songlin himself can admit everything.

Shi Anxia looked into Tang Songlin's eyes and said, "Grandfather, do you know why my step-grandmother has been sending things to the Marquis' Mansion recently?"

Tang Songlin frowned, "Zhu sent you something?" His heart skipped a beat for no reason, and he had a bad feeling.

It was because he knew Zhu too well. It was easy to take it in, but asking her to take it out was harder than climbing to the sky.

So stingy!

Therefore, it was very strange that Zhu could send things to the Marquis' Mansion.

"That was the dowry that my grandmother left for my mother. I ordered her to pay it back within a month. She gave away a few things and now they are not available. I gave her some time and told her to get them back for me." Shi Anxia raised her eyes and looked at Tang Songlin. "Grandfather, do you know why my step-grandmother suddenly became obedient?"

Tang Songlin was shocked by the deep eyes of his granddaughter and couldn't help asking, "Why?"

"Because..." Shi Anxia dragged out the last word, "Recently my grandmother has been looking for her and asking her to return the dowry."
