”The zither contains clues about the treasure of the Grand Xia Dynasty. Many people know about it. If that's the case, then perhaps the item within the zither has already been taken away. ”

”No,” Xiao Su's tone was very confident, ”The founding emperor of the Ming Xuan Empire buried all the treasures that he seized from the imperial palace of the Da Xia Empire in his own imperial tomb. The imperial tomb has its own people, and for the past hundred years, other than the burial of the future emperor and the celebration of the festival, it has never been opened.”

Ming Xuan Country was a country that valued filial piety. If they opened the mausoleum for a treasure, even if that person was the emperor, the people would still spit him out in one breath.

Lu JinNian felt that Mu Rong Tian Yue was not only extremely arrogant and domineering, he was also extremely proud and arrogant. Where did he get his confidence from? He thought that His Majesty Xiao Wen Feng was going to risk everything to get Mu Rong Tian Yue's tomb?

”He has the confidence to do so.” Xiao Su noticed Lu JinNian's doubt and explained, ”The letter of credence for the marriage alliance has been sent. Not only did it promise not to attack for ten years, it also drew a mine and two tea mountains into the borders of Ming Xuan Country.”

”Minerals, regardless of whether they live or build weapons, the more the merrier. The Ming Xuan Country is at the northern end, so the quality of the tea leaves they produce isn't too high. Many times, they have to rely on business travel to bring them from the Ruiqi Country. The price is also very high …”

”That's why I say that the things that Rui Xi gave us are indeed related to the material life of the people, but what they want is to bury it in the mausoleum, an antique that has not seen the light of day all year long. Other than the test of etiquette, for the Ming Xuan Nation, there is only benefits and no harm in exchanging it.”

Furthermore, he cannot be sure that after refusing the marriage alliance, the Rui Xi Parliament will not take revenge on him. Mu Rong Tian Yue doesn't care what means are used to achieve his goal, so it's definitely possible for him to do so.

Lu JinNian strongly agreed with Xiao Su's view, but as the emperor of a country that valued filial piety, hearing such impolite demands made him struggle internally. In the end, it was because he was not strong enough.

”However, in order to obtain the treasures of the previous dynasty, three mountains have been allowed to appear. The Regent of Reich has invested a lot in this endeavor.”

This was a huge gamble. Quite a few people had been searching for the treasure in the past hundred years, but he still hadn't found it. Mu Rong Tian Yue was that confident that he would be able to find the treasure in his lifetime and take back all the money he had given?

Xiao Su mocked weakly, ”The Grand Xia Dynasty has been passed down for nearly three hundred years. Just thinking about the amount of treasures accumulated is enough to make people jealous and greedy.”

Lu JinNian looked at him, ”So the reason you're looking for clues about the treasure trove is to destroy it, right?”

How could a person who didn't care about his life be obsessed with wealth? Moreover, Xiao Su was the king of a country, he would never lack money, and Lu JinNian could clearly feel that Xiao Su's hidden tyranny had destroyed everything, which fit his style.

Xiao Su sighed, ”Do you think that there is any hope for the restoration of the Empire of Da Xia?”

Lu JinNian raised his eyebrows. He found the question inexplicable, but he still answered it.

”No, it's not impossible. It's unnecessary.”

When a dynasty was destroyed, there would be a new dynasty. The land was still that land, and the people were still living there.

This point would not change, even if the entire continent were to erupt in war again, and the descendants of the three kingdoms were to be replaced by the current heroes, was it really important to name the new nation?

If it wasn't so important, why did it have to be the name of a country that had been destroyed?

In a hundred years, generations of commoners, what should have been forgotten had long been forgotten, and the reconstruction was definitely not what it used to be.

The distant history might be filled with the emotions of the present, but as the name of the past, no one would feel comfortable being compared to it at all times.

”But why do you ask?”
