Su Shengwen's eyes showed desire and he said: "I also want to know what this secret is. Fortunately, I will become the master of the palace soon."
Su Xueer thought thoughtfully and murmured: "No wonder there are so many ridiculous nobles in history, as long as they are direct descendants, they can eventually control the power of a house."
"We hold this dance just to bring you together with a direct descendant of the Jiufu. Unfortunately, your heart is elsewhere."
"Now, I've made things clear to you."
"This is the fate of the nobles of the Nine Palaces, and no one can violate it."
"What if someone violates it?" Su Xueer asked unwillingly.
"The head of the family has the right to enforce it, and the other eight palaces will work together to enforce it."
"In order to keep the secret, the direct descendants of Jiufu must marry even if they die, and cannot marry outsiders."
Su Xueer was stunned for a long time and did not come back to her senses.
Su Shengwen sighed and said: "Give the mecha to the family, and after the family has thoroughly studied it, you can take it and marry it into another wealthy family. This will allow you to gain unprecedented huge gains - you will have enough glory and wealth in this life." .”
Amelia Su bit her lip and said, "But I like Gu Qingshan."
Su Wensheng showed a clear look and said in an experienced tone: "It's just a temporary liking. As time goes by, you will understand that compared to power and wealth, a man is nothing."
"Listen to your father, hand over the mecha, and marry into a rich family. If you don't like your future husband, this is better."
"Better?" Amelia Su didn't understand.
"Yes, you are a professional at the peak of the fourth stage of the Five Elements, and you also own the Seraph Armor. After you marry, you will definitely have a certain say. In the future, you will gradually hold the power of that family in your hands, and you will be able to echo me from afar. "
Su Shengwen said with excitement on his face: "I am about to become the head of the Su family, and if you hold power in another family and cooperate with me to do something, the future of our Su family will be extremely brilliant."
Su Xueer was stunned for a long time, and suddenly said: "How is grandpa doing now?"
Su Wensheng paused, his beautiful imagination was interrupted, and he was quite impatient.
"He is still under surveillance, but the doctor said that his life will soon be over."
"I'll go see him."
"...That's okay, remember what father said, he is always for your own good." Su Wensheng said seriously.
Amelia Su looked deeply into her father's face and said word by word: "I will keep it in my heart."
"Well, the second wife actually dared to reach out to you. Damn it. You don't have to worry about the rest." Su Wensheng thought of this, his face full of anger.
Su Xueer walked out of the study and looked up at the sky.
The sky was drooping, dark clouds were hanging low, preparing for a heavy rain.
She suddenly laughed uncontrollably.
"Forcing me to marry anyone for a secret?" she murmured.
For some reason, the scene of Anna holding Gu Qingshan's hand at the banquet came to mind again.
Su Xueer pursed her lips tightly, and her dark cold eyes were like a bottomless pool, making it impossible to see her emotions and thoughts.
She reached out and touched her head.
After a few minutes.
She was standing outside a building.
This has been the center of power of the entire Su family for decades, and it is also the residence of Su Xingchao, the head of the Su family.
Su Xueer looked at the building and hesitated for a long time, but did not go up and knock on the door.
The Su family is holding a grand banquet tonight, so almost no one comes here, only medical staff come out occasionally.
Su Xueer walked back and forth on the road, occasionally walking quickly to the door of the building, stopping for a moment, then retreating dejectedly.
Several times, she had clearly raised her hand at the door. All she had to do was knock lightly, and medical staff would open the door for her immediately, but she took her hand back again as if she was electrocuted.
While she was hesitating, a miniature unmanned transport vehicle flew over and hovered beside the road.
"Su Xue'er, your package." The electronic synthesizer sounded.
"From whom?"
"From Gu Qingshan."
"ah!"
Su Xueer exclaimed, stepped forward quickly, and snatched the package away.
The package was sealed tightly, but Amelia Su couldn't wait to find the scissors.
A thin wind-blue blade appeared in her hand, and following her movements, it quickly cut the seal of the package.
The package opened and it was a box.
Su Xueer couldn't wait to open the box and saw a booklet and a jade bottle inside.
The jade bottle ice is pure, bright, and flawless. Even from Su Xueer's perspective, it is a rare thing in the world.
Su Xueer fell in love with this jade bottle immediately.
She smiled unconsciously, picked up the jade bottle, and played with it fondly.
After a while, she remembered that there was another pamphlet.
Opening the booklet and flipping through it, it was all written by Gu Qingshan himself.
A card falls from the booklet.
Su Xueer hurriedly picked up the card.
There are a few lines written on the card.
"Changning County has gone back and forth to clean it up five times. I'll have people go there again tomorrow to make sure no more murderous ghosts appear. In this case, you can go out and get some fresh air while you are practicing at home."
"The situation in the Federation is gradually improving, but you must not participate in the Eternal Game. Be obedient, or I will have a headache."
"Also, the pill in the jade bottle takes one pill every three days. The booklet is a practice method. This is the most important thing. You must practice it carefully."
"Practice well and become stronger as soon as possible. The future of the world is not very good. You must have the ability to protect yourself."
"come on!"
Su Xueer held the card and read it back and forth no less than ten times. Unconsciously, two lines of warmth flowed down her cheeks.
She sniffed, wiped away her tears, and placed the card against her heart.
She put everything away carefully.
She grinned broadly.
She finally plucked up the courage, went to the door of the building, and knocked hard.
She strode inside.
Ward.
This is a room full of advanced instruments.
Several doctors and nurses stood aside, while Su Xueer came to the bed and sat down.
Su Xingchao was lying on the bed, dying.
His eyes were slightly open, staring at the ceiling without blinking, as if he was nostalgic for this world, and even more like he had some unfulfilled wish and was reluctant to close them.
He exhaled a long breath, paused for a long time, and then managed to take a breath.
"Grandpa, I'm here to see you."
Amelia Su took the old man's hand and squeezed it gently.
The old man also squeezed her hand gently.
"I... am about to leave, I heard... the call of death..."
The old man spoke intermittently.
"But, there is one thing I can't let go of..."
He looked at his granddaughter with questioning eyes.
Su Xueer was silent for a long time, until the old man closed his eyes in despair and finally made up his mind.
She bit her lip and said, "I have made a decision."
As soon as she said these words, Amelia Su suddenly relaxed.
——There is no turning back now.
