C575 mysterious person (2/2)

”How long will Grandfather have to live in the shadow of the kingdom's officials? Since I was young, my grandfather has taught me that what I carry on my back is a country that should not have passed away. My people, my blood.

However, Grandfather has been at the Moon Empire for a thousand years, everything that happened in the previous dynasty has long been for naught. The opportunity from before had long since disappeared. You know best, don't you? Why... Not willing to abandon those?

In my eyes, those things are far less important than you, Grandfather. ” Ling Xi's voice was slightly choked with emotions. Hearing this, Uncle Zhang fell silent. His expression was extremely complicated.

He had never dreamed that such words would actually come from his own granddaughter.

”Ling Xi, there are some things that cannot be abandoned.” Uncle Zhang said helplessly.

”However, that is not my way of thinking. If I am to take my grandfather's life for those things that are simply impossible to accomplish, I would be inferior to even animals.” [How can I bear such a burden? I'm not even fit to be a person anymore.

If grandfather is truly worried about me, he'll live well. Princess Hua-Yang is not a humble person. If we really have a request from her, she will agree to a harmless matter. Why do you have to do this? ”

Ling Xi's question left Uncle Zhang speechless.

He only looked at his granddaughter for a long while before sighing, ”Little girl Ling Xi, you've grown up. Grandfather is thinking too much. ”

”It's Grandpa that couldn't let go of those past.” Ling Xi cried as she spoke.

Uncle Zhang lowered his head and did not explain. Looking at his granddaughter, his heart was filled with complicated feelings. If he could, he would like to forget about that too, but if he forgot about that. Then, what did they insist on?

Some things cannot be forgotten.

Because once they forgot, they... He lost all hope of living.

However, even if he said these words to Ling Xi, she wouldn't care. In her eyes, the previous dynasty was no longer important.

”Speaking of which … Grandfather, when I went to the wangfei palace, I was stopped by the steward of the house. He said that there was someone like me who poisoned the prince. ” Wiping her tears, Ling Xi suddenly recalled her own matters and spoke to Uncle Zhang.

The teacup in Uncle Zhang's hand snapped on the ground with a ”pa da” sound.

His expression was unsightly as he looked at Ling Xi. He opened his mouth, but was unable to speak.

”Grandfather?” Ling Xi waved her hand: ”Grandfather, you tell me … Is that elder sister? ” Ling Xi continued.

”She's still alive?” Uncle Zhang's voice was hoarse, seemingly filled with fear.

Ling Xi nodded her head, ”From what they said, they should be alive. Grandfather, if it really is her, are we going to go and reclaim her? We are still relatives after all. ”

”No way!” Uncle Zhang shouted. He looked solemnly at Ling Xi, grabbing Ling Xi's shoulder as the meager flesh on her old face trembled, ”Ling Xi, no matter what, you must never come into contact with that woman! Absolutely not! ”

”Huh?” Ling Xi was stupefied.

Why not? Back then, when his grandfather mentioned his dead sister, wasn't it very sad? Now that they could find it, why couldn't they?

Seeing her like this, Uncle Zhang knew that his current state was a little crazy. With a cough, he said, ”Ling Xi, Grandfather will not harm you. You absolutely cannot meet her. ”

”Mm, I'll listen to you. I somewhat wanted to help Princess Hua-Yang, which was why I had such a thought. Since you've already said this much, I naturally won't go and get in touch with you. ” Ling Xi obediently replied.

Only then did Uncle Zhang heave a sigh of relief.

However, his fingers were still trembling. As long as he didn't touch them, as long as … Surely there won't be a problem if we don't meet, right?

Twin Flowers... Only one. The choice he made in the past, he didn't expect that he would bump into it now. Uncle Zhang closed his eyes and tried his best to calm down.

The moon was bright in the sky.

The once prosperous night scenery of the capital gradually turned dark due to the disappearance of the Ninth Princess, as well as the deaths of many women who had their faces cut open.

There were very few pedestrians on the streets at night, and most of them were the imperial city's imperial guards.

However, compared to the previous guards who had stopped them when they saw them, the guards these days rarely stopped anyone. This was also one of the biggest benefits that would come out of Yun Muran's hand.
