MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 486 Ancestral graves were tampered with

Chapter 486: The ancestral graves were tampered with

Lingchu was stunned when he heard the imperial edict read by Eunuch An.

 King Dingyuan did not expect that the emperor would directly grant the marriage. He was already a king with a different surname, and the power and wealth of the Dingyuan Palace were already prominent enough.

 The trees that are beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

 He just wanted to keep a low profile and cover up the sharpness of Dingyuan Palace.

 I never thought about using the marriage of my children to gain more power.

 The King of Dingyuan and the Princess originally wanted to find a son-in-law for their daughter who came from a simple family, but the emperor's sudden marriage gift put an end to their plans.

He glanced at his daughter and saw that she was surprised but showed no resistance. He could only sigh secretly and stepped forward to receive the imperial edict.

Hearing the voice of his father thanking him, Ling Chu came back to his senses and secretly glanced at Ning Chuyi next to him.

This marriage gift came so unexpectedly that she was a little unprepared. She didn't receive any news before entering the palace, and Ning Chuyi didn't tell anyone in advance to find someone to deliver a message to her.

Ning Chuyi smiled good-naturedly at her. Ever since he confirmed his intention, he wished he could marry Ling Chu back as soon as possible.

However, due to the fact that he could not get married during the period of national filial piety, he could not sleep alone at night, so he could only rely on practicing martial arts and taking cold showers over and over again to vent the energy that had nowhere to go.

This kind of life is really difficult.

Hearing that Zhao Jingming regretted breaking off his engagement with Ling Chu, and that Prince Jing revealed his intention to marry Prince Dingyuan, Ning Chuyi naturally couldn't sit still.

In order to settle down the marriage as soon as possible, Ning Chuyi had to retreat in order to advance.

 He went to the palace to see the saint and asked to guard the border.

As expected, the emperor rejected his request.

Ning Chuyi then took the opportunity to ask to marry Ling Chu.

 It’s just that the emperor listened to his words at that time and did not agree or disagree.

Unexpectedly, after he went to court, he was immediately announced as the crown prince, and he led hundreds of officials to the ancestral temple to have his identity recorded on the jade ultimatum.

Now they are directly granted marriage.

　　Although all the officials were surprised by the marriage, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they did not express it. Congratulations to everyone.

Although Lingchu was made a state counselor and given a marriage to the prince, she was from a girl's family after all. Most of the congratulatory officials gathered around King Dingyuan and the prince to congratulate her.

Only an old official hesitated for a moment, then finally walked towards Ling Chu, "Princess..."

Lingchu turned his head to see the person coming, and saluted, "Taifu Liu."

Seeing that the other party was hesitant to speak, Ling Chu glanced at the man in the distance and said to Taifu Liu, "Is Taifu here for Young Master Liu? If I guessed correctly, he is your nephew, right?"

“The princess is really good at mysticism, you can tell it at a glance.”

Taifu Liu was still a little hesitant at first, but it was obvious that Ling Chu had revealed the relationship between him and Liu Jinyuan at a glance, and had to marvel at the magic of Xuan Shu.

 Liu Jinyuan is indeed his nephew, but he has always lived in his hometown. This is his first time in Beijing. Few people in his mansion knew his nephew, but the Princess of Jiashan could tell their identities at a glance.

Although Ling Chu didn't know Liu Taifu Liu Huan before, he had heard about it a little bit.

I heard that the Liu family was originally very prominent. Liu Huan's father, Liu Xi, was extremely talented during his lifetime. He was the number one scholar in the Three Yuan Dynasty, and later he was promoted to Taibao. His wife also came from a prominent family.

The couple loved each other so much that they gave birth to three sons and two daughters. They were all the best among men. In particular, the eldest son Liu Huan and the second son Liu Li have been known as child prodigies since they were young. The two brothers even won the first prize in the exam.

 It is extremely rare to have three top prizes in one subject. Liu Mansion's reputation was unparalleled for a time, the family was prosperous, and all the descendants in the family were promising.

 But I don’t know when, their family has been experiencing bad luck.

First, Liu Huan’s father and mother died of illness one after another. Soon, Liu Taifu’s second brother Liu Li and his wife also had accidents.

 At first, Taifu Liu thought it was God's will, but later he gradually realized that something was wrong, and things happened to his family members one after another. Taifu Liu was shocked and angry, so he secretly and openly began to investigate the murderer.

But after many years, he found nothing. People in the house continued to have accidents, and they were either dead, disabled or stupid. Even the children born to him and his wife did not escape the bad luck.

Now that the Liu family has long since declined, the remaining children who are still alive, even if they are not dead or disabled, have become paupers.

Although Liu Jinyuan, the only nephew, was not crooked and his master praised him as having the talent to be the top scholar, he always had trouble in every exam. It's almost a weak point, and not even a single boy has passed the exam.

Taifu Liu had never believed in ghosts and gods before, but today he saw that the princess had accurately judged the situation of his nephew's family, so he finally made up his mind to speak.

“Princess Princess, can I ask you a favor?”

"You say."

"That's it. I would like to ask the princess to help my nephew take a look at it. Is there anything wrong with his fortune?"

Seeing Ling Chu nodding, Liu Taifu was overjoyed and couldn't wait to tell his nephew's name and hour.

Lingchu did some calculations with his fingers and quickly came to a conclusion.

“Young Master Liu’s horoscope is good, and there is nothing wrong with his fortune.”

Taifu Liu looked a little disappointed. There was only one child left in his second brother's family who was not crippled. He originally thought that if there was really something wrong with his nephew, he would go all out and ask the princess to help him solve it no matter what.

 But since there is nothing wrong, could it be that God wants to destroy the Liu family?

After thinking about it, Taifu Liu still refused to give up and told Ling Chu his birth date and asked her to help with the calculation.

Seeing Ling Chu taking back the copper coins and the turtle shell, Liu Taifu couldn't wait to ask, "Has the princess figured out what's wrong?"

Ling Chu shook her head, and when she saw Taifu Liu's disappointed face, she changed the topic.

“If I’m not wrong, the reason why Liu’s family has suffered so much misfortune is because someone has tampered with your ancestral grave.”

Taifu Liu's expression changed, "What? There is something wrong with my ancestral grave, so why doesn't anything happen to me?"

“The reason why Taifu is fine is because of your strong character. Also, if I read correctly, the jade pendant you are wearing is a gift from the emperor. It is because of its protection that you are safe and sound.”

 “This jade pendant is indeed a gift from the emperor.”

Seeing that he still looked a little doubtful, Ling Chu said, "If Taifu doesn't believe it, you might as well send someone to dig up the ancestral graves to find out if there is any problem."

Ling Chu looked at Liu Jinyuan.

“Master Liu, don’t wear this jade pendant. It’s not a good thing.”

Liu Jinyuan frowned and said, "Did Princess make a mistake? This jade pendant is my mother's relic."

"This jade of yours is indeed a good jade, but it is a burial object. This jade contains resentment. The reason why you are in trouble every time you take the exam is because it is affected by it."

Mr. Liu must have lived in the academy on weekdays. If you hadn't been protected by the academy's righteousness, which offset part of the resentment of this jade pendant, you wouldn't have been able to live so safely. "

Although Liu Jinyuan didn't want to believe it, he remembered that not long after he put on this jade pendant, he did feel uncomfortable from time to time. Later, after moving to the academy, things gradually improved.

Tafu Liu saw his nephew's face and decided to immediately go to the emperor to ask for leave. He wanted to personally lead people to dig the ancestral graves.

The reason why Lingchu wanted to help Taifu Liu was because Ning Chuyi had just been crowned prince and needed the support of the courtiers. She helped Taifu Liu, and he would naturally repay her.

Also, when she was competing in physiognomy just now, she revealed the misfortunes in Liu Jinyuan's family, which was tantamount to rubbing salt into his wounds. She pointed out that the jade pendant on the other person's body was inappropriate, which was also an expression of her apology.
