Chapter 336 The Conflict Between Sawamura Spencer Eriri and Arthur
Britain.
Sawamura Spencer Eriri looked at the person before her with a gloomy expression and said, "Useless! You're all useless! The Spencer Family spent so much effort training you, and this is how you repay them?"
The butler silently endured Sawamura Spencer Eriri's scolding. After she had tired herself out, she looked at him and said, "Get out!"
The butler bowed slightly and left Sawamura Spencer Eriri. Her expression remained gloomy. "Damn it. After this failure, getting that item from Emperor Shengzong's tomb will be difficult."
"Legend has it that Emperor Shengzong possessed two powerful treasures: one was the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor, and the other was the Imperial Jade Seal of the Human Emperor. By writing what you wanted to do on the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor and then stamping it with the Imperial Jade Seal, that thing would be 100% achieved. But in the end, Emperor Shengzong did not do this. Both treasures were passed down."
The Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor was taken by Emperor Shengzong to his tomb as a burial object. As for the Imperial Jade Seal of the Human Emperor, it was preserved by the Ming imperial family.
Even if the Ming emperor wanted to see it, he would not be permitted. Only during a certain period each year would the Imperial Jade Seal of the Human Emperor be brought out for display.
So, Sawamura Spencer Eriri had sent elites from the Spencer Family to rob the tomb and take the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor from Emperor Shengzong's coffin. But who could have imagined that all the elites sent by the Spencer Family would be wiped out?
The door opened, and Arthur walked in. Looking at Sawamura Spencer Eriri's gloomy expression, he frowned slightly. "Eriri, after returning from Japan, your personality has changed a lot. I think this is not good."
A flicker of impatience passed through Sawamura Spencer Eriri's eyes when she saw Arthur, but soon the gloomy expression on her face disappeared.
"I'm sorry, Arthur. But whenever I think about what happened in Japan, I just can't accept it. I can't calm down. I want revenge!"
Hearing Sawamura Spencer Eriri's words, Arthur was silent for a moment. Thinking about what had happened in Japan, Arthur felt that anyone else would probably be exactly like Sawamura Spencer Eriri right now.
But Arthur did not want Sawamura Spencer Eriri to be consumed by hatred. However, it was clear that nothing he said now would help. Sawamura Spencer Eriri had already been blinded by hatred.
"Great Ming has sent a message. They caught a group of tomb robbers in Emperor Shengzong's mausoleum. These tomb robbers came from the Spencer Family."
Arthur looked directly at Sawamura Spencer Eriri. He naturally guessed that it was this girl who had done it.
"Earlier, I heard that the Great Ming's Emperor Shengzong had taken the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor to his tomb as a burial object. So, to obtain the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor, I sent a team of Spencer Family's elites. But I didn't expect those useless fools not only to fail but also to expose their identities."
Arthur opened his mouth, looking at Sawamura Spencer Eriri as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he just sighed and then said to her, "Let this matter end here. Don't do anything else out of line, otherwise even I won't be able to protect you. Some members of the British royal family already have some opinions about you."
But a cold smile appeared on Sawamura Spencer Eriri's face.
"Do those British royal family members dare to do anything? You are the future king, and I am the future queen. What can they do to me?"
Sawamura Spencer Eriri sneered. No matter how annoyed the British royal family might be with her, would they dare to do anything to her?
The fact that Arthur was female was known to only a few people. Sawamura Spencer Eriri was one of them.
Once Sawamura Spencer Eriri leaked this information, the British royal family would immediately face an earthquake.
Now that she had leverage over them, Sawamura Spencer Eriri was completely unafraid of the British royal family. No matter how many opinions they had about her, they would just have to swallow their grievances.
A look of disappointment appeared in Arthur's eyes as he looked at Sawamura Spencer Eriri. He was very disappointed in the Sawamura Spencer Eriri before him.
He said nothing more, turned, and left.
…
Great Ming.
"These foreigner bastards, full and bored with nothing to do, actually went to rob Emperor Shengzong's mausoleum and were caught red-handed by Emperor Shengzong himself. How can there be people this stupid in the world?"
"What I'm more curious about is that, according to the soldiers guarding Emperor Shengzong's mausoleum, there were two more tomb robbers that night. But General Li..."
"The only person for whom General Li would do that is probably Emperor Shengzong. But would Emperor Shengzong dig up his own grave?"
The faces of the grand secretaries present all took on strange expressions.
Emperor Shengzong digging up his own grave?
Wow. After guessing this result, these individuals all looked at each other in disbelief. Would Emperor Shengzong actually dig up his own grave?
"Speaking of which, have you heard that legend? Before his death, Emperor Shengzong took one of his two treasures, the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor, with him as a burial object."
The atmosphere immediately became serious. As a national idol, all of Emperor Shengzong's legends were naturally well-known. How could these individuals not know this legend?
"Do you mean that those tomb robbers went for the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor, and that Emperor Shengzong also went to get the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor?"
"I think that's the only reason. Otherwise, no other reason would make sense."
"What do you think Emperor Shengzong wants the Imperial Edict of the Human Emperor for?"
"I understand what you're trying to ask. You're worried that Emperor Shengzong wants to restore the monarchy. But you don't need to worry about that at all. If Emperor Shengzong wanted to restore the monarchy, he would have done it long ago. Do you think anyone could stop him if he wanted to?"
"We don't need to discuss this now. Although Emperor Shengzong didn't explicitly say what to do, this is undoubtedly a test for us. If we don't handle this matter to his satisfaction, then Emperor Shengzong might actually restore the monarchy."
