"A treasured artifact?"
Chen Xuan was intrigued and proceeded to open the wooden box.
A piece of yellow paper!
But on it was a red stamp.
"Ancient script!"
Chen Xuan recognized it at once and found it very familiar.
Where had he seen it?
"Zong Peng said that every mansion in Great Yu has this yellow paper, meant to curb the power of its king."
"But it can only be used with incontrovertible evidence!"
"Otherwise... severe punishment awaits from Great Yu."
Qin Ke repeated Zong Peng's warning to him verbatim.
"Alright!"
After closing the wooden box, Chen Xuan handed it back to him, "Then keep it well."
"Perhaps it's better left with Master, I'm too weak. If I lose it, it would be disastrous."
Holding onto something that could subdue a king felt somewhat rebellious.
"Just keep it yourself! Doesn't Master trust you?"
Chen Xuan smiled.
The fact that Qin Ke shared this matter with him spoke volumes about his loyalty.
