Prince Liang felt a sense of ill omen deep inside. After much difficulty in tracing some clues, the result was a grave, "Son has found the Rong family's graves, there are three tombs. If we want to confirm their authenticity, we'll still need to open the coffins to inspect the burial goods."
The sliver of hope in the Emperor's heart was extinguished. He should have known, with so many families surrounding and hunting them, how could anyone have survived? He then squinted his eyes, "Have we found out who repaired their tombs?"
Prince Liang shook his head, "Son has investigated the village. Those who helped with the burials are mostly dead after all these years, and those who are alive don't have a strong recollection. The only lead Son could find was by following the northern route."
It was lucky to have come across any clues at all. He didn't have portraits of the Rong family members, plus it had been so many years since their destruction during the previous dynasty's reign!
