“After all, we are not in a time of chaos. A seal like this jade insignia, from a royal perspective, is not something that would be misplaced!”

“Even if the tomb owner held a high status, unless they successfully usurped the throne, they wouldn’t possess a genuine jade seal!”

“You’re suggesting a switch? There’s no need for that. To risk execution for such an item, it’s not worth it!”

“Do you think the ancients would be so naive as to believe, ‘If I steal this jade seal, I would become the emperor?”‘

Luo Feng analyzed with a smile.

Should the tomb owner not hail from a time of turmoil, then he would not have been likely to possess such a genuine item.

Quickly, Luo Feng returned the jade seals to their original place. Even though they were replicas, their value was still substantial.

With a creak, swiftly, Luo Feng moved on to the next room.

The room contained some chests, noticeably larger and longer than the others.

Nonchalantly, Luo Feng opened one, revealing rolls of something wrapped in special leather.

“Judging by their shape, could these be paintings and calligraphy pieces?”

A slight wave of emotion washed over Luo Feng. Without touching anything, he looked at Gu Santong, “Mr. Gu, when will your archaeological team arrive?” “Around noon.”

“Around noon.”

“Will they have their archaeological equipment with them? These should be scrolls of calligraphy and paintings!” Luo Feng pointed at the chests.

“Yes, they will bring the equipment with them. Let’s wait for them to open these.” Gu Santong was well aware that after many years, such artifacts could easily crumble with the slightest carelessness.

“Little Luo, could this possibly be a chicken cup?”

In the next room, there was an array of gold and silver jewelry, porcelain, and utensils made of gold and silver.

“A chicken cup?”

Hearing this name, Luo Feng felt a stir of interest. After all, he had made a substantial sum from such an artifact in the past.

“Heh, indeed, it is a chicken cup!” Luo Feng chuckled lightly, examining the object before speaking in satisfaction.

“What a fortunate find!”

Having sold a chicken cup in the past and now finding another, his personal museum would now have one too.

“Darn it, isn’t this the artifact that was sold for billions a while ago?”

“I swear, this tomb feels more ominous than the Tomb of Zhao Gao!”

“Those Yongle Encyclopedias must be worth a fortune, right?”

“Forget the rest, as long as more of Sakura Country’s national treasures are found, I’d consider it a huge success!”

“Hahaha, you’re absolutely right!”

Luo Feng, having discovered this chicken cup, fell deep into thought before finally speaking, “Mr. Gu, I believe I have an idea of the tomb owner’s identity.”

“Ah? Who might that be?” Gu Santong asked curiously.

“Let’s not rush things, I’m still waiting for the appearance of a certain something. Once it appears, I can almost certainly confirm the owner’s identity!” Luo Feng said, setting down the chicken cup and moved on to the next room.

Nothing.

He moved on to the next room.

Still nothing.

“How strange!” Luo Feng stood before the sarcophagus, bending to search inch by inch.

Still nothing.

“Could it be?”

“The Ming dynasty’s seventeen jade seals from the Jiajing era have increased to twenty-four! Plus the Xuande Tongbao!”

“Adding these up, we can almost confirm that the tomb owner was from a time before the Jiajing era, to be precise, before the Zhengde era. After all, the chicken cup confirms that the tomb owner lived after the Chenghua era!”

“From Chenghua to Zhengde, a total of fifty-seven years passed! ”

“In these fifty plus years, there’s only one person who matches the tomb owner’s profile! ”

Upon hearing this, Gu Santong quickly asked, “Who is this person?”

“Hehe, the Emperor who established the dynasty, Tan Jin!” Luo Feng responded without hesitation..
