Because her mother was from a humble background and had an upright personality, she never got along well with the scheming Taifu Chu.
The Grand Tutor of Chu had always disliked him. A few years ago, he found an excuse to transfer him to the frontier.
It had been many years since he left. If Chu Qianli hadn't begged the emperor to transfer him back, he still didn't know when he would be able to return to his home.
"Brother..." Although he was not his biological eldest brother, he was used to it, so he continued to call him that way.
At least, tonight, he is still her eldest brother.
"Are you going to see grandpa too?"
Chu Jinnan nodded: "Grandpa's body has not been recuperated yet, so he has to change the medicine twice every night."
"You went to change grandfather's dressing yourself?" Chu Qianli was a little surprised.
These things can be left to the servants to do, and there is no need for him to do it himself.
Chu Jinnan has just been transferred back. I'm afraid he hasn't adapted to his new position yet. He must be busy with a lot of things.
"Didn't I say before that someone in the house poisoned my grandfather? I think it would be safer to do the medicine myself."
"That's fine, that's it, I'm relieved."
Chu Qianli nodded and walked into the Duke's room with him.
Seeing Chu Qianli, Chu Buqu was a little excited: "Why didn't Xiao Qi say hello in advance when he came back? It's so late. Did someone from Prince Xuan's Mansion send you here?"
Not wanting to make him worry, Chu Qianli could only nod and said: "Yes, I will leave in a moment, I have to rush back."
"Xiao Qi is always so busy." Chu Buqu waved and said: "Xiao Qi, come here and let grandpa take a good look at you. I haven't seen you for a while, and my Xiao Qi has lost weight again."
Chu Qianli's nose suddenly became sore and she almost couldn't help but shed tears.
He is no longer his biological grandfather.
But this feeling is still there.
"Grandpa, Xiaoqi hasn't massaged you for a long time. How about Xiaoqi giving you a massage?"
She didn't know how long she would go to Longteng Country this time, let alone whether she would have a chance to come back.
Before I leave, I just want to fulfill my filial duty as a granddaughter.
Even though she is not his real granddaughter, he is always her grandfather in her heart.
After taking the medicine, the Duke quickly fell asleep under Chu Qianli's massage.
After he was asleep and covered with a quilt, Chu Qianli left his bedroom.
Chu Jinnan was still waiting outside the courtyard.
Seeing Chu Qianli coming out, Chu Jinnan went to greet him and suddenly knelt down on one knee.
"Brother..."
"Thank you for your generous help! Xiao Qi, what big brother owes you will definitely be paid back to you in the future!"
"No need, I asked you to come back because you are the only one who can make the Duke's Mansion stand up again."
Mr. Chu Taifu is really not good, he doesn't have that kind of ability.
"Brother, I can only help you so far. From now on, you have to rely on yourself. Grandpa, I also rely on you."
"Xiao Qi..." Chu Jinnan looked at her with a complicated mood.
Why does he always have the feeling that Xiao Qi, if he leaves this time, will never come back?
"Brother, there are still people in this house who want to do harm to grandpa. The end of Chu Huaiyu's matter may not mean that everything is really over."
So tonight when she saw Chu Jinnan personally taking care of her grandfather, she finally felt relieved.
Chu Qianli supported him and made him stand up.
She raised her head and looked at Chu Jinnan, who was a head taller than her, and said seriously: "If you want to avoid being bullied, you have to become stronger yourself first. Brother, you still have to work hard on your own in the future.
"
"Brother understands."
Chu Qianli smiled at him and had nothing more to say.
The eldest brother is older than her and has experienced as many things as her.
He will know what to do.
"I really have to leave." She will set off tomorrow, and she can't waste too much tonight.
She had to go back and continue preparing things.
"Brother gives it to you."
Chu Jinnan sent her to the back door, knowing that she came back by herself, but he could also see that Xiao Qi's martial arts was not weak now, even better than him.
"Xiao Qi," before parting, Chu Jinnan couldn't help but ask: "Will you...will come back?"
The feeling that she will never come back is getting stronger and stronger.
The relationship between the two of them as brother and sister was not strong in the past, and for some reason, tonight, it was particularly difficult to let go.
Chu Qianli nodded, then shook his head: "I don't know either."
Chu Jinnan's heart tightened.
In the end, he could only sigh lightly, look at her again, and said seriously: "No matter what, if Xiao Qi needs anything in the future, as long as I can do it, I will definitely try my best!"
"Okay! I will keep these words in mind, brother."
Chu Qianli cupped her hands at him and said, "Brother, see you later!"
"Take care of yourself!"
Leaving the Duke's Mansion, Chu Qianli didn't feel anxious along the way.
My mood and footsteps are both a little heavy.
This time, I really have to leave the Duke's Mansion completely.
This home will no longer belong to her from now on.
After leaving the Duke's Mansion and walking for a while, Chu Qianli gradually realized that something was not right about the surrounding atmosphere.
It was not too late now. She was walking on the street, which was still a bit lively.
The man had been following her, clearly intending to let her know his whereabouts.
Otherwise, with her profound internal strength, Chu Qianli asked herself, he should not be able to detect her existence.
Walking to a teahouse, Chu Qianli suddenly stopped.
Turning back, looking at the dark night sky: "Would you like to go in for a drink?"
People around looked at the little girl in surprise.
How did the little girl communicate with the air?
There was no one behind her.
But only Chu Qianli could hear the voice coming from the person behind him: "If you are not afraid of death, go to Huaishan Temple."
Chu Qianli looked up and saw that Huaishan Temple was not far away.
She is not afraid of death, but she has too many questions in her heart!
Finally, she took steps and walked towards Huaishan Temple across the lake.
Concubine Yu was sitting by the railing on the highest floor of Huaishan Temple.
Looking from a distance, the thin figure fell on the railing, as if it would fall at any time.
But how could such a master be in any danger?
Chu Qianli walked up the steps and walked not far behind her: "What do you want from me?"
"You are really not afraid of death." Murong Yu sneered and did not look back at her.
"You won't kill me." Chu Qianli said calmly.
"How can you see that?" Murong Yu raised his eyebrows.
"If you wanted to kill me, why would you go through all the trouble and cast a soul-obsessing spell on me?"
Concubine Yu wants her to stay by Feng Wuya's side and protect Wuya.
In fact, even if she didn't use the Soul-Charming Technique on herself, Chu Qianli would protect Feng Wuya with all her life.
Why bother?
Unexpectedly, Murong Yu turned around, looked at her and smiled, "Do you think I really only used soul-obsessing techniques on you?"
