665 You Are Loyal But I Will Insist! (1/2)

Brother!

An exceptionally intimate word!

What is brotherhood?

They would venture into perilous lands and carry burdens together. They would share happiness as well as problems to overcome!

Actions speak louder than words!

The sound of hooves suddenly became audible. A man on horseback was approaching. All of his hair was white and he had a big build. It was Tang Wan Li.

He hopped off the horse and approached Tang Yuan. He said angrily, ”You little bastard! You are still so ignorant and don't understand priorities! Come back home with me!”

Tang Yuan insisted. ”Grandpa, please wait a while. I will return to the Aristocratic Hall once I have finished paying tribute to Uncle Jun.”

”You little brat, how dare you bargain with your grandpa!” Tang Wan Li blew his mustache and raised his hand up high as his face blackened.

”Grandpa… I can't go back with you yet!” Although Tang Yuan was used to big occasions in recent years, he was still afraid of his grandfather. Nevertheless, he still raised his head and argued reasonably. ”Grandpa, you can die for His Majesty and disregard the whole family. You can do anything at any time for him because His Majesty recognized your abilities and you fought together when you were young. This is true friendship between men, and I understand. But… I can do anything for Jun Mo Xie just like how you can for His Majesty!!

”Grandpa, you have your friendship and I also have mine, which can't be severed.” Although Tang Yuan said it softly, he sounded very firm. ”You are always loyal to the imperial family. So many years, and it never changed. I admire your moral principles, but do you wish for your grandson to always sit on the fence and be a disgraceful character for life?”

”Sigh…” Tang Wan Li looked at his grandson with great surprise. The raised hand could not come down.

After a while, he sighed and said dispiritedly, ”But… you don't know the consequences…”

”Jun Mo Xie called me his good brother just now!” There was light on Tang Yuan's face. ”I have real blood-related brothers, but I've never had this kind of brother! He is the first, and perhaps the only one… From a young age, no one befriended me. Let alone treat me like a brother!”

”I hope I will always have my brother,” Tang Yuan said with a low voice as he looked at his grandpa. ”Just like your relationship with His Majesty.”

Tang Wan Li stood startled. Suddenly, he felt that the grandson in front of him was so unfamiliar. He always thought that his grandson, who only liked to eat and didn't work, wasn't going to achieve anything and become useless for life. Even though Tang Yuan had become extremely wealthy due to the Aristocratic Hall, he was just a puppet of Jun Mo Xie. But in this moment, he felt that his grandson had really grown up.

Tang Yuan finally followed his own will and could be called a real man!

But where Tang Yuan was heading was in fact a different path than his!

With a long sigh, Tang Wan Li looked gloomy. He got back onto horseback with some difficulty. He whispered, ”Yuan, you have finally grown up, and you have your own choices… I hope you can do well on you own, the family…” He couldn't continue. His expression was very complex. It was a mixture of relief and pain, and it was contradictory to the extreme. He sighed again and slowly rode away…

Tang Yuan shed tears. Looking at his grandpa's silhouette in the wind with the white hair, he bit his lips. Sorry, grandpa. But I don't think I am wrong!

”Brother Wan Li.” Jun Zhan Tian walked over and shouted at the leaving Tang Wan Li.

Tang Wan Li stopped his horse but did not turn back. ”Jun Zhan Tian, you've finally avenged your son, and I'm sure you feel very relieved. But, besides the front of the palace, is there no other places that can house your platform? Besides feeling relieved, aren't you concerned for anything else? Don't you feel uncomfortable?”

Jun Zhan Tian stood there seriously and shook his head. ”Brother Tang. You are not me. You won't understand. I know you don't feel comfortable, and I am not very willing to admit as well! But, reality is reality, mistakes were made. How can they compensate me? If you were me, what would you do?”
