Chapter 968
This time, Tang Guo and the others also saw clearly what Zhong Sheng was holding.
Yan Jinyu frowned, while Yan Yun was stunned, and strode over.
He took the thing from Zhong Sheng's hand, looked at it carefully, and then looked at Yan Jinyu.
"Master, it's true, it's the Jade Seal of the Southern Chu Kingdom."
Yan Yun handed the jade seal to Yan Jinyu, and Yan Jinyu confirmed it was indeed true with just one glance.
He looked at Chu Ting, his eyes became deep.
"Why is the Southern Chu Chuanguo Yuxi here?"
Chu Ting's expression was still cold and indifferent. He floated to the window and looked outside.
It took a while before he spoke, "At first it was not called Wanglin Village, but Wangchu Village, but later I felt that the name Wangchu Village was too eye-catching, and it was easy to bear doubts, so it was changed to Wanglin Village. , all surnamed Chu, are from the former Southern Chu royal family."
Zhong Sheng: "Haven't all the members of the Southern Chu royal family were almost killed by the Ninth Prince? Where did so many descendants come from?"
Chu Ting's expression finally loosened a bit, but it was only for a moment, and he returned to calm soon.
"Everyone in the world knows that the Ninth Prince is traitorous, surrendering the great country of Southern Chu, and implicating the entire royal family of Southern Chu, as well as all the common people, for personal grievances. They all say that the Ninth Prince is a devil and he died well, but in fact, the Ninth Prince has a clear grievance. , before deciding to take revenge, he released all the innocent members of the Nanchu royal family."
Zhong Sheng scratched his head, "I took over the aftermath after Nanchu surrendered. I have read all the files of the Nanchu royal family. Why didn't I know there was such a thing?"
"My father is Chu Huailin, the direct son of Nan Chu's Prince Nan who died unexpectedly at the age of fifteen. The Chu Jing, Chu Xiao, and Chu Xian you saw just now, their fathers or grandfathers were all former Nan Chu The sons of the collateral line, in the records of Southern Chu, most of them died of sudden illness, or were attacked when they went out, or died in a fight in the back house, but in fact, this is just the means of the Ninth Prince to protect these people."
No one expected that things would develop to this stage, that there are still so many descendants of the Southern Chu royal family.
"Is the Jade Seal of Chuan Kingdom found in the Nanchu Palace back then a fake?" Yan Yun asked.
Chu Ting nodded, "That's right. My father went back to the capital because he missed his homeland, and happened to meet the Ninth Prince's uprising. My father entered the palace through a secret passage and took away the imperial jade seal, and the one you mentioned Yuxi, on the other hand, existed in the first place, Southern Chu has always had two jade seals, one true and one false, one bright and one dark."
"Then why do you keep this real jade seal?"
"They want to restore the country. I think this is the reason why my parents died. After all, except for our family of three, no one knows where the Chuan Guo Yuxi is hidden."
While speaking, the sky had completely darkened. Because of the cloudy sky, it looked even darker. Outside the window, it was even darker. It would not be an exaggeration to say that you can't see your fingers.
"It's late at night, I want to see my parents, can I?"
Chu Ting looked at Tang Guo. He was very obedient and knowledgeable, knowing that he could not act without Tang Guo's permission.
Tang Guo didn't care, and asked, "Do you know where your parents are buried?"
"The people in Wanglin Village knew that restoring the country would not be so easy, so they had already made preparations for a long-term struggle, and opened up a place in the back mountain as a ancestral grave. Everyone will be buried there after they die."
