The York Family had a history of more than a thousand years. The first head of the family was the Prime Minister of the Rossi Empire.
The current patriarch, Poznan. The Grand Duke of York was the second finance minister of the Empire. He was also a grand mage and had a high status in the family.
Apart from the Elder Council of the family who could restrain him, his power in the family could be said to have reached the level of life and death. With his ability and status, as long as he treated Donald a little better, Donald could live a carefree noble life.
However, Donald, who did not have a strong background, did not bring him any real benefits.
The reason why he married Donald's mother, Lisa, was because of Lisa's beauty. As Lisa grew older and older, Donald's situation in the York family became even worse.
The family mansion occupied a vast area. The gate of the mansion was majestic and could accommodate four carriages. There were two rows of neatly dressed servants standing on the steps of the gate.
As soon as Tangning stepped out of the car, a servant quickly came up to her," The respected Young Master Donald is back!”
Tangning lifted her head and glanced at the family crest on the top of the mansion. She then waved her hand," Someone go and get my butler, Sai Wen. I have something to discuss with him."”
The servant at the entrance was only responsible for receiving guests; he would not send Young Master Donald to his residence. The reason Tangning had asked the servant to find Servant Sai Wen was because she wanted him to bring her back to her residence. Otherwise, if Young Master Donald did not even know where she lived, it might arouse suspicion.
The butler's full name was Sai Wen. Lancaster came from Donald's mother's Lancaster family. He was a strict and orderly person. Lancaster had joined the York family after marrying Poznan, and he was loyal to Young Master Donald.
There were many small butlers like Savon in the York Family. They all came from the matriarch's family and depended on the matriarch. They were in a relationship with the matriarch, and their status in the York Family changed with the matriarch's status.
Sai Wen quickly appeared in front of Tangning. Perhaps it was because he had been away from home for too long, Sai Wen did not notice anything strange about the fake woman in front of him. After all, who would know that there were two people who looked exactly the same in the vast Glorious Mainland? Moreover, one of them would personally send the other to hell?
However, after meeting the housekeeper, Tangning could feel a hint of sorrow on Sai Wen's face.
Under Sai Wen's lead, Tangning returned to her residence.
This was a small courtyard. Although the wood used to construct the courtyard was extremely luxurious, the overall structure was a little old, giving people the feeling that it had been in disrepair for a long time.
The courtyard wasn't big. In the middle of the courtyard, there was a giant tree that had been around for an unknown number of years. The lush leaves of the tree covered the entire courtyard, causing this place to be under the shadow of the giant tree for many years.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, Sai Wen choked on his sobs,"Young Master, Madam..."?
Tangning's heart skipped a beat as she asked sadly," What happened to Mother? Tell me!"
" She left a few days ago," Sai Wen said sadly." God of Light, Matriarch has returned to the arms of the God of Light."”
"Just like that?"
Great, Tangning had no feelings for this cheap mother. He was a little glad that she had arrived at the right time. Otherwise, she would have been the one to expose his plan to impersonate him. After all, she was Young Master Donald's biological mother!
This was good news for him. However, this good news did not seem to have anything to do with the God of Light, right?
In order not to let Sai Wen see her expression, Tangning turned around and repeated," Are you leaving just like that?"”
" Yes!" Sai Wen finally cried out.
After a while, Tangning asked in a trembling voice," Does Father know?”
" Master Poznan came once." Sai Wen seemed a little unwilling." He left not long after. The matriarch's funeral was handled by the Head Chief, so it was a little deserted."”
" Is that so?" Tangning replied emotionlessly.”
" Yes," Savin said," it's very quiet. Mistress didn't wait for Young Master to come back. She asked me to give Young Master some things she brought from the Lancaster family."”
If it wasn't for the fact that the atmosphere wasn't right, Tangning would have already smiled. The Lancaster Family had its glorious days in the Rossi Empire and their history wasn't any shorter than the York Family's. If it wasn't for the fact that the Lancaster Family had chosen the wrong side in the battle for the throne, the family wouldn't have fallen so quickly.
Even a rotten boat has its nails. It was impossible for a family with a thousand years of history to not have a few treasures that could last them for a long time. So, when Tangning heard that there was something to be obtained, she couldn't wait," What do you have?" Hurry up and get it."
Soon, three items were placed in front of Tangning.
Tangning picked up one of the clothes.
It was a book. Strictly speaking, it was a thread-bound book.
As soon as the book entered Tangning's hands, she felt as though it was bound with a thin silk. She brought the book closer to her eyes and saw three ancient and fragrant traditional Chinese characters-Yuan Zhen Lu.
Seeing Tangning pick up the book, Sai Wen explained," This book is a sacred object of the Lancaster Family. It was said that the founder of the Rossi Empire, Alaskan, gave it to the ancestors of the Lancaster Family."
The material of this book was very strange. It was definitely not animal skin. The handwriting in the book was passed down after the ancestors died in a war, so no one could recognize it.
The Lancaster family had spent a lot of money to understand the contents of the book. Unfortunately, no one in the entire Radiant Continent could recognize the strange handwriting in the book, so this book became the famous Book of Ignorance.
After the Lancaster family declined, this sacred book was brought to the York family by the matriarch.”
Tangning calmly picked up a small, black bottle. On the bottle, she saw two more characters that were even harder to read: " Golden Essence ".
" It's not that simple." Sai Wen's gaze fell on the small bottle." Some people speculate that there might be two words or two magic symbols engraved on this bottle. It might be related to the opening of this bottle. However, after so many years, the secret of these two magic symbols has never been solved.
Because it was too sturdy, countless people tried their best to open the bottle, but they could not. Therefore, no one had ever seen what was inside the bottle.”
Finally, there was a small black ball the size of a walnut. It was so black that it didn't stand out at all. At the same time, Tangning also found four words on the uneven surface of the ball: " Nine Transformation Golden Pill ".
