Tearing the Prince's Clothes after Withdrawing Marriage Chapter 945 - 944 An Age-Old Imperial Decree

"Wait a mont..."

Feng Dingchu actually wanted to stop her.

But it was too late.

The wooden chest, obviously aged, was pried open by Chu Qianli.

A chest full of gems, a lock, and also, a small wooden box.

"Girl..."

Chu Qianli didn’t heed his restraint, and imdiately opened the wooden box.

"An Imperial Decree?" This was beyond unexpected, how could the Ninth Uncle have an Imperial Decree?

And it appeared to be quite old, made of fine materials, but already worn.

"You naughty girl, I didn’t let you open that."

Feng Dingchu snatched it back, his usually composed deanor now revealing so urgency.

It was clear, this Imperial Decree was extrely important.

Chu Qianli’s curiosity was fully piqued.

"What exactly is written on this Imperial Decree?" Why did he seem so anxious?

"Could it be, related to sothing with... the Empress Dowager?"

So things she preferred not to articulate too clearly, after all, it might stir his painful mories.

But her aning should be very clear to Feng Dingchu.

Was the Empress Dowager’s two attempts to poison him all because of this Imperial Decree?

What on earth was written on it?

Feng Dingchu remained silent, his face ashen.

Chu Qianli could see, his emotions agitating once more, agitation followed by despondency.

After that, would it be despair?

"Ninth Uncle, the matter is already in the past. Since you could bring here, you must have realized that you needed to face it once again."

He had managed, with much difficulty, to co back to life once more.

Chu Qianli didn’t want this Imperial Decree to send him back to that half-dead state.

"If it displeases you, I won’t ask about the Imperial Decree, but..."

"There is nothing that cannot be told, if it is rely about , you may look at the Imperial Decree, I won’t stop you."

"So you an to say, the matter on this Imperial Decree isn’t about you, but soone else?"

Many figures flashed through Chu Qianli’s mind.

The Empress Dowager, the Emperor, Hua Rong, the Empress, Feng Qihe and Feng Yexuan.

However, it was more related to soone among those ntioned.

But it couldn’t be the Empress Dowager; she was just a woman of the Harem.

Yet, this woman of the Harem might have done sothing beyond her abilities for her son, the Emperor.

"Forget it, if you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t ask. But since we’ve dug it up, burying it back might not ensure its safety."

This lone grave was probably not constructed by him for himself.

It was just that after soone else built it, he used this place to bury his secrets.

With their recent movents being traced, it was only a matter of ti before this place would be discovered.

"Find a new place to hide it."

Chu Qianli no longer paid attention to the matter of the Imperial Decree and bent down to pick up the pouch full of gems.

Upon inspection, there were many rare and precious treasures.

She looked at Feng Dingchu.

"Take so to help the villagers rebuild their hos; you can use the rest as you wish."

Feng Dingchu’s gaze still lingered on the Imperial Decree.

Chu Qianli, however, was no longer concerned about the Imperial Decree, her mind fully occupied weighing the bag of gems.

The treasures were abundant; any single one of them could be exchanged for a considerable amount of gold.

To rebuild the villagers’ hos, taking out a few would suffice.

The rest... wow, a fortune!

"Is this your life’s fortune? Not bad at all! Ninth Uncle, you weren’t embezzling when you were a Prince, were you? There’s so much..."

Before she could finish, the Imperial Decree appeared before her eyes.

Chu Qianli’s breath hitched, looking up, her gaze fixed on his calm face: "You want to show your secret?"
