"If I'm not wrong, you should hand this thing over to the state, right?"
After holding the treasure map in his hand for a while and examining it carefully to confirm that it was genuine, Ye Huang asked Beitang Xue again with a serious look on his face.
He knew what kind of person the latter was, and he always did one thing and two things in official matters. Since this was obtained by an intelligence officer with his life, it would be really unjustifiable for him to take it like this.
"Head No. 1 asked me to give you this thing. Otherwise, do you think I would dare to take the initiative and get this thing back?"
Seeing Ye Huang asking himself this, Beitang Xue explained.
But here, Ye Huang frowned slightly after hearing Beitang Xue's words.
Regarding the search for the Holy Dao Xuanyuan Sword, he never mentioned it to Chief No. 1. How could he know that he was looking for this thing?
"Don't look so suspicious. Since he is the No. 1 leader, there are probably not many things in this country that he doesn't want to know. It's just that he wants to control it or not."
"That's right."
With a chuckle, Ye Huang felt relieved when Beitang Xue said this.
As the number one leader, coordinating the fate of the entire country, I am afraid that as Xiaoxue said, there are not many things he does not want to know.
The question is whether he wants to take care of it or not.
Chief No. 1 must have some intention when he gave himself the treasure map that the deputy agent had worked so hard to obtain.
But what exactly it is, Ye Huang is not very clear.
"Find time to go to Zhongnanhai and ask."
After muttering, Ye Huang didn't dwell on this issue.
"Xiaoxue, I want to take this picture back for comparison. Will you go back with me?"
After getting up, Ye Huang took a deep breath and said to Beitang Xue.
"Go back to where? Back to Ye's house?"
"Um!"
"I won't go. I have a mission tomorrow. Besides, is it convenient to go to your house in the middle of the night?"
With a bit of nervousness, Beitang Xue became coy after hearing Ye Huang's words.
After all, it was the middle of the night. What did it mean to ask Emperor Ye to take her back to Ye's house? Even though she had never experienced emotional matters, she understood a little bit.
Going to see his parents, relatives, and his other women made Beitang Xue feel like his daughter-in-law came to his door.
Although she felt a little sweet today because of Ye Huang's tender care, Beitang Xue was thin-skinned after all, so she really couldn't bear to follow him back in the middle of the night.
"What's the inconvenience? You'll have to move in sooner or later anyway. Even if you go to the top of the mountain early today, let's go. Maybe I can dig out the Xuanyuan Sword's hiding place tonight."
Ye Huang, who had already been carried away with joy by the treasure map that Beitang Xue had obtained, would not care whether Beitang Xue was shy or not.
Regardless, he grabbed the latter's little hand and walked out of the door.
In this way, Beitang Xue returned to the Ye family mansion with Ye Huang in the middle of the night.
When Ye Huang and Beitang Xue returned to Ye's house, it was already past one o'clock in the morning. The entire mansion was deserted and almost everyone had fallen asleep.
Only grandpa Ye Chaoyang's study room was still brightly lit as usual.
When Ye Huang held Beitang Xue's hand and pushed open the door, Ye Chaoyang in the room had just finished writing a calligraphy and painting. When he saw Ye Huang coming in with a girl, he was stunned for a moment. When he saw who it was, he couldn't help but smile.
Already.
"Haha, it turns out it's you. Why, weren't you playing outside? Why did you come back in the middle of the night?"
Putting down the brush in his hand, Ye Chaoyang stood up and asked with a smile.
Beitang Xue was dragged here by Emperor Ye in the middle of the night. She was already extremely embarrassed. Now when she was asked by Emperor Ye, she didn't know what to answer. She glanced at Emperor Ye and stood there silently.
Beitang Xue, who has always been known for her calmness and calmness, acted like the girl next door at this time.
"Grandpa, you haven't slept yet? Your body won't be able to hold on if you stay up like this."
Seeing that his grandfather had a few more hairs on his forehead, Ye Huang felt a little distressed.
"Haha, it's nothing. When you get old, you can't sleep well. You can't fall asleep even if you lie down, so it's better to write a few words."
"But you also need to pay attention to your health. Grandpa, your physical condition has become much worse than before in the past six months. I will sort it out for you tomorrow."
"No need, all the things you brought back last year are there. I really can't hold it anymore. I'll ask your father to get it for me. Let's talk about your affairs first. You came back in the middle of the night, and you don't just want to see my old man. Bar?"
Emperor Ye was not a particularly home-loving person, and after returning to Yanjing, he did not stay at the Ye family mansion every day, and sometimes he often spent the night outside.
Tonight, I must have something to do when I come back in the middle of the night.
"Grandpa, what do you think this is?"
Taking out the small iron box, Ye Huang took out the treasure map Beitang Xue gave him.
Just by looking at him, Ye Chaoyang knew why this kid came back in the middle of the night.
"I asked you, why are you so excited? Is this the seventh picture?"
Ye Chaoyang, whose eyes also lit up, said something to Ye Huang, then turned around, twisted the mechanism on the bookcase, and carefully took out six more cards that Ye Huang had asked him to do before from the safe at the back. The treasure map of the Xuanyuan Sword that was kept.
"It's the seventh picture. Grandpa, tell me, can you tell any clues from these seven pictures?"
In fact, when six pictures were found, Emperor Ye already felt that the treasure map of the Holy Path Xuanyuan Sword was becoming increasingly difficult to find.
What Beitang Xue sent here was completely beyond Ye Huang's expectation.
But he thought about it, usually a few maps can be pasted together to find the approximate direction, this treasure map should be able to do it.
"I hope it's true as you said, but I don't think this thing has much hope."
Compared with Ye Huang who held great hopes, Ye Dynasty did not have high expectations.
According to the old man's decades of experience, the more mysterious the things left by the ancestors are, the more difficult it is for people to understand.
Many things are completely beyond the scope of current understanding.
If the Xuanyuan Sword of the Holy Path could be found with only a few of them, there should be quite a few found in China's five thousand years.
But so far, there is no one in the historical records!
Many times, even the old man felt that this might just be a legend. Even with these seven maps in front of him, he did not feel that the Xuanyuan Sword existed in the world.
In his opinion, these seven maps may hide other secrets, which may have nothing to do with Xuanyuan Sword.
"Hey, how can you know if it's true or false if you don't try it? I don't waste any time on this thing. I always want to find out."
Although his grandfather poured cold water on him, Ye Huang was still confident.
With the help of Beitang Xue next to them, the three of them fiddled around in the room for a while and finally put the seven maps together.
Ten minutes later, the old man Ye Chaoyang stood up first and threw away the magnifying glass.
Behind them, Ye Huang and Beitang Xue also had disappointed looks on their faces.
