Chapter 394: Be Polite to the Tong Family



“After all, this treasure is something my father risked his life to preserve. Isn’t it right for my Tong Family to treat it as private property?

During the years of war, whoever seized something got to keep it.

If the Yang Family seized Mount Jiang, then the world belongs to the Yang Family.

If they obtained the treasure, then the treasure is theirs.

Even if there was a cultural heritage protection law in later generations, it’s not a crime to not submit to the state.

The prevous dynasty’s National Treasury was a result of the robbery committed by his father on his own.

Transporting it here was undertaken by his mistress mother.

This is their property. Why should they surrender it?

The “Daqi Law” doesn’t state that hiding the previous dynasty’s National Treasury is a crime, does it?

Stunned by Tong Tiehu’s counter-question, Cen Hong cringed and his face turned pale.

Tong Village Chief, could you tell us how your mother transported this batch of treasure here? And how was this underground storage built?” Yang Ye questioned.

“Answering Your Highness, I really do not know.” Tong Tiehu honestly replied.

“What do you actually know?!” Yang Wang snapped impatiently upon hearing this. “I think you’re pretending to be clueless to fool me!”

“Please calm your anger, Your Highness, I really don’t know,” Tong Tiehu explained with appropriate fear on his face, “When I arrived here, the secret tunnel and the treasure were already here. My mother never explained to me how the treasure was transported here or how the secret tunnel was built.”

“Also, not long after I settled in Anping Village, my mother passed away.” “Where did your mother live?” Remembering what Tong Tiehu said about the Tong Family’s settlement in Anping Village that morning, Yang Ye asked.

“My mother lived in seclusion on Rooster Mountain, interacting with no one due to the despair from my father’s death.”

“Humph, sneaky and suspicious, the Tong family must be up to no good!” Cen Hong said grimly.

What else could they want if they don’t intend to rebel after seizing such a huge treasure?

“You should be careful with your accusations without evidence, General Cen. Did you know that Gu Yu and the reigning Emperor are sworn brothers?” Gu Yucun interjected.

“What?!” Cen Hong let out a startled exclamation, completely taken aback.

Yang Ye and Yang Wang, the two brothers, were stunned as well.

Then Qiao Xiaomai was also stunned.

From this response, even Yang Ye and Yang Wang were not aware of this brotherhood?

“At that time, the world had just fallen into chaos, with many declaring themselves kings and forming more than ten small and large factions, making the situation precarious. Gu Yu, having a small following, swore brotherhood with the Emperor due to their immediate affinity, and their two factions formed an alliance to resist their enemies together.”

“However, for some unknown reason, Gu Yu reneged on his promise, broke the alliance, and led his troops north alone.”

“The Emperor must have been furious at this, and issued an order prohibiting any discussion on the matter. Later, after three years of war, many of the old followers who were initially with the Emperor died or got injured, and coupled with the Emperor’s ban, this incident became little known.”

“However, since the Emperor instructed me to look after the Tong Family, it must mean his anger has subsided.”

“General Cen, I advise you to be polite to the Tong Family. Leave the rest to the Emperor; he will make his own judgements.”

Gu Yucun was not interested in discussing further.

He didn’t wish to expend his energy on those as thoughtless as Yang Wang or Cen Hong.
