"Grandpa, it's great to have you here." She looked up at the tall and burly old man and said.
Grandfather is a big mountain.
It was a mountain that actually stood in front of her and protected her from the wind and rain.
It is also a mountain that sits firmly at the bottom of her heart, giving her confidence and courage.
This has always been the case from childhood to adulthood, in past and present lives.
The Duke of Zhenguo smiled and said: "This is the opposite. As my grandfather said - it is best to have Zhao Zhao at home!"
Blood ties and family ties are the warmest and most solid bonds in the world.
When Zhaozhao came to this world, he was besieged by enemies. After he escaped from danger, he believed that this child had brought him blessings and dispelled bad luck.
In addition, it was the first grandchild, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that the child's mother and natal family were kind to Xu Jiajun, so he had already been looking forward to this child for a long time before he saw it.
With such a mood, when he returned to Beijing, he had no time to take off his armor before going to see his granddaughter.
The soft baby girl was lying in the cradle, staring at him curiously with a pair of grape-like eyes. Those eyes were black and clear, pure and innocent, cleaner than anything he had ever seen.
At that moment, he only felt that the killing and exhaustion on the battlefield were taken away by those eyes in an instant.
He had been fighting for decades, and he already felt a bit numb. No matter how many victories and military achievements he gained, they were just accumulations of times. He once felt that life would probably continue like this.
But after having a granddaughter, everything started to change.
Such a small baby was like a clear and powerful spring water, injecting into his increasingly dry life, giving him renewed energy and hope.
The little baby grew up little by little, began to learn to laugh, and used soft fleshy hands to scratch his beard - before this, he had never been scratched by anyone!
Although the baby was small, his hands were not weak, and he was forced to beg for mercy. Seeing him like this, the baby smiled even more happily. The two small white rice-like teeth looked a bit strange, but they made people full of hope——
The doll is growing up.
He went to fight another battle.
When he came back, the child could walk away and would call him "grandfather" with his face raised.
Hearing this shout, he quickly said "Hey", not to mention how happy he was, and asked someone to remove the knife from his waist. He squatted there and teased the child, "Shout again and listen." He responded over and over again, how could he listen?
Will never get tired of it.
When he got older, the child began to ask him nervously, "Is grandpa injured this time?" When he found out that he had gray hair, he helped him pull it out, turned around, and secretly threatened those children with a feigned ferocious tone.
"Get away from my grandfather quickly".
He pretended not to hear, lying in a wicker chair with his eyes squinted and a smile to relax.
A few years later, she looked like a little girl, but her temperament was nothing like that of a little girl. She kept asking her to learn horse riding and archery all day long, and every time she asked her what she wanted, it was either a bow or a sword or a sword or a stick.
Then, she grew up to be such a big girl, started to have a man she liked, and started to worry about him, and worried about the big and small things in the family - with such a small body, she tried to stand in front of him
, I have to protect this old man in turn...
Thinking of this, Duke Zhen Guo smiled so much that the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes stretched.
Therefore, for him, as long as there is such a child at home, and the child can be safe and happy - it is the greatest gift and kindness in the world to him.
Under the moonlight, the grandfather and grandson were walking and talking, and the two figures slowly disappeared behind the shadows of flowers.
…
This night, the atmosphere was different.
Some people were paying attention to inquire about the assassin, some were talking about the news that Young Master Xu had been recovered safely, and some heard that Concubine Jing was happy, so they began to make new calculations and trade-offs.
Regardless of whether the night was peaceful or not, the sun would still rise the next day.
Wu Chao got up and practiced his sword in the morning. After changing clothes and eating breakfast, he heard Sui Jiang report: "Sir, just now the internal prison came to send a message. The assassin who committed the assassination last night still had some fish slipping through the net. Today's spring hunting will be temporary."
We have put it aside and asked everyone in the palace to try not to leave the palace and move around without permission."
Wu Chao said "Yeah": "I know."
It seems that the next step is to start searching various hospitals.
"The Duke of Zhen also sent someone to deliver a message..." Sui Jiang stepped forward and lowered his voice: "The Duke sent someone to question the young master. The assassin has already finished interrogating him. If it is no longer useful, the young master doesn't know.
If you want to figure out how to deal with it in the safest and cleanest way, you can let Qin Wu do it for you."
Wu Chao looked inexplicably startled after hearing this.
General Xu was worried that he could not handle the matter well, so he sent someone to ask him if he needed help——
Is this what it feels like to be cared for and cared for by your future grandfather-in-law?
Seeing that his young master seemed to be distracted, Sui Jiang thought it was really weird that Duke Zhen Guo could live in such harmony with his own young master. Sui Jiang tentatively called out: "Young Master?"
Wu Chao's demeanor immediately returned to normal and he said: "Let me reply. Please don't worry, Duke. I will take care of the matter."
He was not in a hurry to interrogate the assassin last night.
Because the matter he wants to interrogate just needs to test the other party's patience.
Sui Jiang responded "Yes" and stepped back. Wu Chao sat in a chair, casually picking up a book and flipping through it.
Only half a quarter of an hour later, there was a burst of powerful footsteps.
A close entourage entered the hall and said, "Sir, it is Commander Han who has brought people here."
"Please come in."
Han Yan led a team of policemen into the hall and politely handed over his hand: "Wu Shisun."
"I wonder what Commander Han is doing?" The young man in a pale robe with half-tied black hair leaned back in the chair with a leisurely expression, holding a book in his hand, and his noble brows showed an innate coldness.
Meaning.
Han Yan lowered his eyes and said: "I have been ordered to search for traces of assassins throughout the palace. I hope Wu Shisun can do it conveniently."
This search was indispensable, and it was the utmost respect for him to come to this courtyard in person.
"Excuse me." The young man didn't care and continued reading.
Han Yan then ordered people to search separately in all directions.
With the sound of the boy turning the pages of the book from time to time, several detectives came back one after another.
"Sir, there is no trace of the assassin in the garden."
"My lord, there is neither the backyard nor the kitchen."
"..."
After hearing the last subordinate's reply, Han Yan looked to his left and right.
That left only Wu Shisun's bedroom and several wing rooms.
Logically speaking, the guards around Wu Shisun were all very skilled, and it was impossible for the assassin to get close to the courtyard, let alone hide close to Wu Shisun.
And after searching along the way, he didn't find any suspicious signs around the yard.
Now if I don't even spare the bedroom, I'm afraid it would be a bit too much and ignorant.
However, after weighing it for a moment, Han Yan still said: "For the sake of Wu Shisun's safety, I dare not let go of any corner. The only thing I can do now is offend——"
