If there's anything, Jiang Lai would ask him.
"Dad, the rumors outside can't be true, right? Did you accept bribes from officials to have the money to buy these things for me?"
Jiang Lai picked up an extremely vivid coral necklace, stroking it. It was cool and smooth, just looking at it made one happy.
Jiang Xiong grunted in dissatisfaction.
"Why don't even you trust your father? These were treasures seized when iron cavalry smashed through the gates of enemy cities back then. His Majesty rewarded me for my merits and let me choose some to bring back myself. I know you like these jade things, so I kept them for you to bring back."
Jiang Lai smiled at him and tugged at his beard.
"Your beard is white, perhaps you shouldn't be a general anymore and take my mother to find a nice place to enjoy the mountains and rivers. Why keep going to the border to suffer?"
