Xie Xuning had many thoughts running through his head. Back then, if the members of the royal family were as resourceful and ambitious as X, their dynasty would not have fallen.

One could easily fall into a trap when he was in his comfort zone for too long.

Similarly, one would also strive to succeed under harsh conditions.

“Then I’ll go look for Grandpa immediately. Tianxin will have to stay over at Lang Garden tonight.”

“All right.”

The matter was of utmost urgency. They had no clue about it before.

Now that they had found something so critical, it was important for Li Qingcang to get to the truth of the matter.

That night, Li Qingcang ventured into the mountainside.

Ever since Grandpa Li retired from the military force, he had been living in the mountains.

The environment was tranquil and good for one to rest his mind.

“Young Master.”

“Hello.”

Li Qingcang took out the food and wine from the car. He had specially prepared them for his grandfather.

“Let’s have a drink later.”

“All right.”

Li Qingcang glanced at the study and noticed that the lamp was still alit.

He opened the door of the study softly and saw Grandpa Li writing some Buddhist scriptures at his desk.

“Grandpa.”

“It’s already so late. Is something wrong? Why did you come here?”

Li Qingcang nodded.

“Yes, Grandpa. I need to ask you something.”

The silhouettes of both grandfather and son could be seen from the window.

Grandpa Li told Li Qingcang what he knew about the fallen dynasty and lost treasure.

Li Qingcang recorded everything Grandpa Li said diligently in his notebook.

“It’s natural for Xie Xuning to be suspicious of this matter.”

“What do you think, Grandpa?”

Grandpa Li shook his head. “I don’t know, Qingcang. Hunting X down is like going to a battle. You need to have a strategy.”

Li Qingcang nodded.

He listened quietly to what Grandpa Li was saying.

That night, the three of them reminisced as they feasted on the food and wine.

By the end of the meal, all three of them were drunk.

“Tianxin, what’s the matter?”

That night, Ye Linlang kept Ye Tianxin company and was sleeping with her when she heard her daughter cry out softly.

Ye Linlang hurriedly turned on the light and touched Ye Tianxin’s forehead with her hand.

“Tianxin, you have a fever!”

Ye Linlang quickly got dressed and gave Xie Xuning a call.

“Xuning, Tianxin has a fever!”

After getting dressed, Ye Linlang also helped Ye Tianxin get dressed. Ye Tianxin was pregnant with a child. Even the smallest illness could lead to a major problem.

Ye Linlang did not dare to treat any sickness of Ye Tianxin lightly.

If anything went wrong, it might be too late to prevent a catastrophe.

“Tianxin, wake up. I’m taking you to the hospital.”

Ye Tianxin’s whole body was breaking out in a sweat and felt very wet.

“Mom, I feel so hot.”

Ye Tianxin opened her eyes and saw a worried-looking Ye Linlang.

Ye Linlang nodded.

“Tianxin, can you get out of the bed yourself?”

Ye Tianxin answered weakly, “Yes.”

She tried with all her strength to hold herself up from the bed but realized that she did not have the strength to do so.

“Mom, I’m too weak.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll let your dad come in and carry you.”

Just then, Xie Xuning walked into the room.

“Linlang, how is Tianxin feeling?”

“She’s having a high fever. She doesn’t even have the strength to stand up now.”

Ye Linlang took a blanket and wrapped Ye Tianxin’s body in it.

“Xuning, can you carry Tianxin into the car? I’ll give Qingcang a call.”

Ye Linlang called Li Qingcang, but there was no response.

“Uncle He, can you please go to the mountains and tell Qingcang that Tianxin is in a very bad state? It’s very urgent.”
