Hearing Shi Qingxue’s words, Shi Junhe was stunned but couldn’t help laughing.
His daughter had sharp eyes and was thoughtful, good at speaking “sugared words”. Nobody would dislike her.
Shi Junhe was relieved and couldn’t help but tease her, “It’s a poison, so it was given to you. Will you take it?”
Shi Qingxue raised her head arrogantly and responded with complacency, “Huh! I am so wise. How would I take it as I know it’s a poison?
“Grandpa must know that I can resist temptation and help him keep the treasure, and anybody else can’t.
“Am I right, Father?”
Shi Junhe could certainly notice that Shi Qingxue indicated that he was one of “anybody else”, so Shi Lei didn’t give the token granted by Emperor to him.
Although speaking from some aspect, Shi Qingxue was right, he was unable either to cry or to laugh.
He tried his best not to laugh, and his expression turned solemn again. He gazed at Qingxue deeply and told her seriously, “So you must protect the token granted by Emperor and can’t take it out until you really have to. Do you understand?”
Shi Qingxue didn’t expect Shi Junhe to be so solemn and was astonished, replying subconsciously, “Sure. I would put away the stuff Grandpa gave to me and won’t use it easily.”
“Earlier, whenever my mother wanted to let Hui divorce me and send her home, you made a predisposition to give Hui the token granted by Emperor?” Shi Junhe asked in an instant.
Shi Qingxue was embarrassed by this question and felt helpless. “That’s Mother! I didn’t take it out easily.”
Shi Junhe’s dignified face was more serious and he demanded solemnly, “That’s what I am talking about. If there is something like this in the future, even for me or your mother, you can’t say that you would give the token granted by Emperor to anybody like you did last time. Are you clear?”
“Why? How can I…” Shi Qingxue could hardly understand why Shi Junhe said that all of a sudden.
“Because…” Shi Junhe looked away and answered unhurriedly, “Because this is the only thing your grandpa gave to you. He wanted you to keep it carefully. If you use it because of somebody else, your grandpa would be sad.”
Shi Qingxue still wanted to argue, but seeing Shi Junhe’s complicated expression with sadness, she couldn’t say what she was going to say.
She then nodded and responded in a serious tone, “I see, Father. Don’t worry. I will protect the token granted by Emperor and wouldn’t let anybody use it.”
Anybody she mentioned included herself.
Shi Junhe smiled bitterly and thought that his father gave the token granted by Emperor to Qingxue that year in order to keep her alive, but now he cheated her purposely to prevent trouble before it happened…
He got such a result and didn’t know if it was overcorrected.
But Shi Junhe didn’t have extra energy to think about it. He just nodded and then told Shi Qingxue that Mo Shujun personally led some people to search the Luotong Boudoir the other day just to look for the token granted by Emperor and even beat up her servants.
Shi Qingxue was petrified and had never expected that Mo Shujun would do something like that. “How could she…”
Qingxue opened her eyes wide in disbelief and couldn’t continue to question because Shi Junhe’s serious expression had told her the truth.
She stayed quiet for a while and then asked in a hoarse voice, “Was Dong Shuang… beaten up? How is she now?”
“I told Doctor Qin to examine her and then sent her back to the Luotong Boudoir. Your mother told some people to clean up the Luotong Boudoir for you, and it is generally the same as before. But the servants searching the room were not careful then and might have damaged a lot of your treasures. I have told Hui to replace some for you, but something…” Shi Junhe couldn’t continue.
When Shi Qingxue was only four or five years old, Shi Lei founded a loft in the East House as her bedroom for her teenage period.
Shi Lei loved Qingxue since she was a child and knew that she liked playing, so he specially gave her many valuable playthings, including famous writings, paintings and ancient porcelains, which were rare and unique and couldn’t be found anywhere else after they were damaged. How could they replace them to make up?
Shi Qingxue didn’t let Shi Junhe continue and asked coldly, “So Grandma took the token granted by Emperor away at last? Father, as you told me so much, do you want me to take it back from Grandma?”
“No!” Shi Junhe was surprised this time.
He looked at Shi Qingxue in confusion and hesitated for a while before speaking. “The token granted by Emperor was not in the Luotong Boudoir, and my mother didn’t find it. You…”
Logically, Shi Qingxue had kept the token granted by Emperor, but Mo Shujun couldn’t find it after searching everywhere in the Luotong Boudoir. Qingxue must be able to guess that.
As a result, Shi Qingxue was more surprised than Shi Junhe. “She didn’t find it? How is it possible? The Luotong Boudoir is not big, and I didn’t…” She didn’t hide it on purpose.
She didn’t finish her words, but she had expressed it clearly.
It was silent in the room. They looked at each other speechlessly and seemed not to know what had happened.
Shi Junhe frowned and asked hesitantly, “So do you mean that you didn’t hide the token granted by Emperor anywhere else, but my mother couldn’t find it in the Luotong Boudoir?”
“Of course. I had the token granted by Emperor since long ago, but I kept it in the closet in my bedroom all the time and wouldn’t take it out easily.
They can find it and don’t need to rummage through chests and cupboards.” After all, Shi Qingxue had never expected that somebody would search her bedroom in a big way when she was still a lady in the family.
They fell into silence again. Judging from each other’s words, they had got the information that the token granted by Emperor was supposed to be in the Luotong Boudoir, but it disappeared, and even its owner Shi Qingxue didn’t know where it was.
“Was it like my mother said? Somebody coveted your thing in secret and stole it?”
Shi Junhe thought of Dong Shuang again, who was still suspicious, and it might be her after Shi Qingxue said that.
However, Shi Qingxue affirmed, “It can’t be Dong Shuang. She and Xia Mang are absolutely loyal to me and she would never steal my things. Moreover, Dong Shuang is stupid from childhood. How could she have played such a cute trick?”
“You are right, but the token granted by Emperor can’t go away.” Shi Junhe was helpless. The token granted by Emperor was given by the late emperor and was a royal gift.
It was fine if it was used, but if it was gone and the emperor blamed them, it would…
The token granted by Emperor was registered as a property of the Shi Family, and even if somebody stole it, they couldn’t use it. Who would be so idle as to steal a royal gift from the Shi Family?
Shi Qingxue shrugged and showed a weirdly relieved expression on her face after feeling astonished.
She stated leisurely, “It doesn’t matter. In fact, if Grandpa didn’t want the young generation to act willfully because of the token granted by Emperor, he should have refused when the late emperor gave it to him. If he couldn’t refuse, he should have destroyed it as soon as he got it.
If it were me, I wouldn’t let the young generation know about its existence. It would indulge the children who are lazy or make trouble and make them fight for it.
This stuff is good for nothing except that it should be worshiped, right?”
Shi Junhe pondered for a while and thought Qingxue was right, but could she boldly say that it was better after it was gone?
He sighed helplessly and then explained, “You are right, but it was given by your grandpa. You can’t abandon the gift given by him before he passed away because you are not on good terms with your grandma.”
Shi Junhe’s words exactly revealed what Shi Qingxue was thinking about.
For a minute just now, she really had the intention that she would just give the token granted by Emperor to Mo Shujun if the latter wanted it so badly. Anyway, she didn’t need it…
But she cared much about what Shi Junhe said. Shi Lei gave it to her specially, and why would she give it to somebody else?
Even if that was her grandma, it was not okay.
At this thought, Shi Qingxue faced Shi Junhe with more courage and delight. “No. Since you told me, even if you ask me for the token granted by Emperor in the future, I won’t give it to you.”
Shi Junhe was not irritated but nodded with relief. “Hope you can do as you say.”
Shi Qingxue patted her chest and assured him, “No problem.”
After a pause, she asked hesitantly, “But I should find the token granted by Emperor now, right?”
If the token granted by Emperor was gone when she owned it, she wouldn’t have the face to see her grandfather even after she hung herself.
Shi Junhe frowned. “Since you are sure that it was not stolen by that maid, there is only one possibility.”
Upon hearing that, Shi Qingxue was astonished and then realized. She thought for a minute and agreed with Shi Junhe, responding, “I might have hidden the token granted by Emperor, but…”
She shrugged helplessly, “I have forgotten.”
Shi Junhe was speechless and wondered why somebody could be so calm when she forgot something so important.
“Fine, you hurry up and go back to think it over. Before you remember, don’t come here to see me.”
Shi Junhe was angry and kicked Shi Qingxue out of the study.
Shi Qingxue could do nothing. Even though she was unwilling to go back to the Luotong Boudoir, she had come back home and could only return to her boudoir. While thinking, she missed Mo Junyang’s Love Xue House. She was carefree there.
“Qingxue, are you okay?” A surprised voice came from ahead.
She raised her head and saw Wenren Chi run to her in a hurry.
Wenren Chi still wore the military uniform of the City Guardian Army. Apparently, he hurriedly rushed to visit Qingxue as soon as he got the news that she came back home.
Facing Wenren Chi she hadn’t seen for a long time, Shi Qingxue was overjoyed and rushed to him with a smile. “Big brother, where have you been? I was wondering why I didn’t see you in Father’s study.”
Wenren Chi thought that Qingxue blamed him as he didn’t come immediately, so he explained with apology, “I led the City Guardian Army to patrol in the city this morning and I got the news just now, so…”
“The City Guardian Army?” Shi Qingxue repeated in surprise and came out of Wenren Chi’s arms, looking him up and down. “Gee, aren’t you in the Shi Army all the time? Why did you become a member of the City Guardian Army…”?
While speaking, Shi Qingxue was confused.
According to her memory, Shi Junhe should be in the battlefield far away, and Wenren Chi was in the Shi Army, but everything she had seen was different.
What was the weirdest was that she took it for granted in the beginning.
Shi Qingxue suddenly realized that something important might have happened during the period that she couldn’t remember.
