The Xies belonged to an ancient family.
In the former dynasty, there were officials in the Xie family, although they were not from Xie Xuning’s family.
Xie Xuning’s family was directly from the Xies. In the past, the emperor was a bad ruler who caused the people to suffer greatly.
There was internal strife in the royal courts, and enemies were invading from outside the country. The people were living in dire straits.
The head of the Xie family, the husband of the old matriarch, wanted to make changes for the family and the people.
“We, the Xies have lost many of our family members over the past few years. This may not be a coincidence. If the royal family bloodline is also being passed down, they could very well blame their fallen dynasty on the Xie family.”
Li Qingcang frowned. “So, are you saying that the descendants of the royal family are seeking revenge?”
Xie Xuning remembered very clearly that the old matriarch had told him about the lost treasure.
He was a very young boy then.
If not for the chain of events affecting his family over the past few years, he would not have thought about the treasure.
“Dad, what do we do now?”
As long as X and the Young Master were alive, they would never be able to lead peaceful lives.
Xie Xuning let out a sly laugh.
“I think we need to draw them out of hiding. The former dynasty has been destroyed. We can use the lost treasure to lure them out. If X and his organization are after the treasure, they certainly won’t give up looking for it.”
Li Qingcang agreed with Xie Xuning’s reasoning.
All this time, X had been in hiding. He was like a poisonous snake, springing out from nowhere and catching them unaware.
Xie Xuning thought that instead of being pushed to the edge by X, he would spread the news of the lost treasure as folklore.
He would wait for the enemy to take the bait.
“What if they are not after the treasure?”
Xie Xuning smiled, “Well then, it will just remain as folklore.”
The Qie family used to be imperial doctors in the former dynasty.
They had a lot of prescriptions that were passed down from the previous courts.
Any one of these prescriptions would fetch a high price if they were sold in the market.
Besides, country J had always been interested in buying a prescription from them.
Xie Xuning vaguely remembered that over 20 years ago, someone from Country J had approached the head of the Qie family and offered to buy a prescription from him. They had offered him a high price along with many lucrative conditions, but the old man declined the offer.
He claimed that they were national treasures.
It was true; everyone from the imperial medical court was capable.
The prescriptions were not developed by a single doctor.
However, the minute they had rejected the offer, Yan Shanyue suffered a miscarriage.
Xie Xuning was not aware of the miscarriage then, so he did not connect the two issues together.
Now that he thought about it, he realized that things were not so simple.
“What about the Li family?” Li Qingcang was equally concerned about his family.
Xie Xuning shook his head. “Many people from the Li family died that year, but I don’t know if that’s related to this situation.”
“I’ll ask Grandpa tonight.” Li Qingcang still felt uneasy about the whole issue and pressed on, “Dad, do you think Country J has anything to do with X?”
“I don’t know, and I don’t have any evidence to prove this at the moment.” Xie Xuning hesitated for a moment. “Back then, the royal family was close to Country J. We even surrendered a few islands to Country J for their favor. I don’t know for sure if X has been in contact with the people in Country J all these years, but I’m sure that X is a massive organization.”
