In ancient times, I made a fortune by copying my family

Chapter 486: The ancestral grave was tampered with
Ling Chu was stunned when he heard the imperial edict read by Eunuch An.

King Dingyuan did not expect that the emperor would grant a marriage directly. He was already a king with a different surname, and the power and wealth of Dingyuan's palace were already prominent enough.

The wood show will be destroyed by the forest wind.

He just wanted to keep a low profile and cover up the edge of Dingyuan Palace.

I never thought about using my children’s marriage to gain more power.

Prince Dingyuan and his concubine originally wanted to find a son-in-law for their daughter who came from a simple family, but the emperor's sudden marriage gift put an end to their plans.

Glancing at my daughter, I saw that she was surprised but showed no resistance. He could only sigh secretly and stepped forward to receive the imperial edict.

Hearing the voice of his father thanking him, Ling Chu came back to his senses and secretly glared at Ning Chuyi next to him.

This marriage gift came so unexpectedly that she didn't receive any news before entering the palace, and Ning Chuyi didn't tell anyone in advance to find someone to deliver a message to her.

Ning Chuyi smiled good-naturedly at her. Ever since he was sure of his feelings, he wished he could marry Ling Chu back as soon as possible.

But due to the fact that he couldn't get married during the period of national filial piety, he couldn't sleep alone at night, so he could only rely on practicing martial arts and taking cold showers over and over again to vent the energy that had nowhere to put it.

These days are really difficult.

Naturally, Ning Chuyi couldn't sit still when he learned that Zhao Jingming regretted breaking off his engagement with Ling Chu, and that Prince Jing revealed his intention to get married to Prince Dingyuan.

In order to settle the marriage as soon as possible, Ning Chuyi had to retreat in order to advance.

He went to the palace to meet the saint and asked to guard the border.

As expected, the emperor rejected his request.

Ning Chuyi then took the opportunity to ask to marry Ling Chu.

It's just that the emperor listened to what he said and didn't agree or disagree.

But he didn't expect that after he went to court, he was immediately announced as the crown prince. He also led hundreds of officials to report to the ancestral temple and asked the ancestral order to record his identity on the jade ultimatum.

Now he is directly granted marriage.

Although all the officials were surprised by the marriage, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they did not express it. Congratulations to everyone.

Although Lingchu was granted the title of Imperial Preceptor and was given the title of Marriage to the Crown Prince, she was still from a girl's family. Most of the congratulatory officials gathered around King Dingyuan and the Crown Prince to congratulate her.

Only an old official hesitated for a moment, then finally walked towards Ling Chu, "Princess..."

Ling Chu turned his head to see who was coming, and saluted, "Taifu Liu."

Seeing that the other party was hesitant to speak, Ling Chu glanced at the man in the distance and said to Taifu Liu, "Is Taifu here for Mr. Liu? If I am not wrong, he is your nephew, right?"

"The princess is really good at mysticism. You can tell it at a glance."

Taifu Liu was still a little hesitant at first, but Ling Chu revealed the relationship between him and Liu Jinyuan at a glance, and had to marvel at the magic of Xuan Shu.

Liu Jinyuan is indeed his nephew, but he has always lived in his hometown. This is his first time in Beijing. Few people in his mansion knew his nephew, but the Princess of Jiashan could tell their identities at a glance.

Although Ling Chu didn't know Liu Taifu Liu Huan before, he had heard about it.

It is said that the Liu family was originally very prominent. Liu Huan's father, Liu Xi, was extremely talented during his lifetime. He was the number one scholar in the Three Yuan Dynasty, and later he was promoted to Taibao. His wife also came from a prominent family.

The couple loved each other so much that they gave birth to three sons and two daughters in a row, all of whom were great. In particular, the eldest son Liu Huan and the second son Liu Li have been known as child prodigies since they were young. The two brothers even won the first prize in the exam.

It is extremely rare to have three first prizes in one discipline. Liu Mansion's reputation was unparalleled for a time, the family was prosperous, and all the descendants in the family were promising.

But I don’t know since then, their family has been experiencing bad luck.

First, Liu Huan's father and mother died of illness one after another. Not long after, Liu Taifu's second brother Liu Li and his wife also had accidents.

At first, Taifu Liu thought it was God's will, but then he gradually realized that something was wrong, and things happened to his family members one after another. Taifu Liu was shocked and angry, so he began to investigate the murderer overtly and covertly.

But after many years, he found nothing. People in the mansion continued to have accidents, and they were either dead, disabled or stupid. Even the children born to him and his wife did not escape the bad luck.

Now that the Liu family has long since declined, the remaining children who are still alive, even if they are not dead or disabled, have become dandies.

Although the only nephew, Liu Jinyuan, was not crooked and his master praised him as having the talent of being the number one scholar, he always had trouble in every exam. It's almost a weak point, and not even a single boy has passed the exam.

Taifu Liu had never believed in ghosts and gods before, but today he saw that the princess had accurately judged the situation of his nephew's family, so he finally made up his mind to speak.

"Princess Princess, can I ask you a favor?"

"You say."

"It's like this. I would like to ask the princess to help my nephew take a look at it. Is there anything wrong with his fortune?"

Seeing Ling Chu nodding, Taifu Liu was overjoyed and couldn't wait to tell his nephew's name and hourly horoscope.

Ling Chu did some calculations with his fingers and quickly came to a conclusion.

"Young Master Liu has a good horoscope, and there is nothing wrong with his fortune."

Taifu Liu looked a little disappointed. He was the only child left in his second brother's family who was not crippled. He originally thought that if there was really something wrong with his nephew, he would go all out and ask the princess to help him solve it no matter what.

But since there is nothing wrong, could it be that God wants to destroy the Liu family?
After thinking about it, Taifu Liu still refused to give up and told Ling Chu his birth date and asked her to help with the calculation.

Seeing Ling Chu taking back the copper coins and the turtle shell, Taifu Liu couldn't wait to ask, "Has the princess figured out what was wrong?"

Ling Chu shook her head. Seeing Taifu Liu's disappointed look, she changed the topic.

"If I'm not wrong, the reason why the Liu family has suffered so much misfortune is because someone has tampered with your ancestral grave."

Taifu Liu's expression changed, "What? There is something wrong with my ancestral grave, so why doesn't anything happen to me?"

"The reason Taifu is fine is because you have a strong character. Also, if I read correctly, the jade pendant you are wearing is a gift from the emperor. It is because of its protection that you are safe and sound."

"This jade pendant is indeed a gift from the emperor."

Seeing that he still looked a little doubtful, Ling Chu said, "If Taifu doesn't believe it, you might as well send someone to dig up the ancestral grave to find out if there is any problem."

Ling Chu looked at Liu Jinyuan.

"Master Liu, don't wear this jade pendant. It's not a good thing."

Liu Jinyuan frowned, "Did the princess make a mistake? This jade pendant is my mother's relic."

"This jade of yours is indeed a good jade, but it is a burial object. This jade contains resentment. The reason why you are always in trouble during the exam is because it is affected by it.

Mr. Liu must probably live in the academy on weekdays. If you didn't have the righteousness of the academy to protect you, which offset part of the resentment of this jade pendant, you wouldn't be able to live such a safe life. "

Although Liu Jinyuan didn't want to believe it, he remembered that not long after he put on this jade pendant, he did feel uncomfortable from time to time. Later, after living in the academy, things gradually improved.

Seeing his nephew's face, Taifu Liu decided to go to the emperor immediately to ask for leave. He wanted to personally lead people to dig the ancestral graves.

The reason why Ling Chu wanted to help Taifu Liu was because Ning Chuyi had just been crowned prince and needed the support of the courtiers. She helped Taifu Liu, and he would naturally repay her.

Also, when she was competing in physiognomy just now, she revealed the misfortune in Liu Jinyuan's family, which was like rubbing salt into someone's wound. She pointed out that the jade pendant on the other person's body was inappropriate, which was also an expression of her apology.
