And he only found out today that there was such a past between his aunt and Mr. Xu, and the reason why they could not get together was not only because of the confusing situation, but also because of the rivalry between the two elderly people...

In addition to sighing with emotion, with such lessons learned from the past, people can't help but feel even more worried.

Seeing that his grandfather had not returned, the young man left the back hall and went to the courtyard to look for him.

The moonlight was thin and cold, and there were still raindrops on the leaves of the two osmanthus trees beside the pavilion. A gust of wind blew down the crystal water droplets.

The old man in a dark gray cloak stood with his hands behind his back, his back straight and thin, looking in the direction of a laurel tree as if he was in a trance.

"grandfather."

Wu Chao stepped forward and first bowed and admitted his mistake: "Today, my grandson made an unreasonable decision and tricked his grandfather into coming here. Please punish him."

The old man withdrew his gaze and fell on the young man, saying: "If I really want to punish you, just based on what you have done recently, I am afraid that even one of your legs will be discounted——"

Wu Chao smiled when he heard this: "Grandpa just beats me, but my grandson has strong bones and needs to be raised well."

King Dingnan also laughed inexplicably: "My legs can be maintained well, but my memory cannot be long."

It has been like this since childhood——

It seems that you obey the discipline everywhere, but in fact, once you decide what you really want to do, you will never look back.

You can be beaten, you can accept the punishment, and you accept the punishment sincerely, without any dissatisfaction. He stands straight and kneels straight, but he will continue to do it the next time without delay.

But in the final analysis, as a grandfather, he has never really thought about breaking this stubbornness into pieces - this child is undoubtedly very smart, and he is probably aware of his intentions, so when he is a little older, he will

I am very good at dealing with the many rules and restrictions around me, and I know exactly where to stick.

He also knew very well what the child's ability to withstand pressure was, and he had to control everything appropriately, because the child he wanted to raise was never a puppet who could only be obedient.

In this matter, he thought that he had always done a pretty good job, but now that he thought about it, he thought that he thought too highly of himself.

Unknowingly, he still imposed a lot of oppression on this child, even in the name of doing good for the child and thinking about the overall situation.

The reason why the child can bear all this is the child's own ability, rather than proving how impeccable his grandfather is...

This was something he slowly understood and accepted over the days until tonight.

"Ayuan, can you blame your grandfather?" King Dingnan asked, his tone was very calm, but there seemed to be a sigh.

The young man had a calm look on his face, without any hesitation: "My grandson sometimes disagrees with his grandfather's actions, but he has never blamed his grandfather."

It’s not that I don’t dare, it’s that I have never been surprised.

When he disagrees, his first thought is to convince his grandfather. If he really can't be convinced, he will choose another way to deal with it.

If there is a problem, solve it. As for blame, those useless emotions should not be used on your own family.

His grandfather had never been his enemy. Even if there were disagreements, it was only because of their own considerations. In the final analysis, it was all for the Wu family.

If his grandfather really made a mistake, he only needed to use this as a warning to remind himself not to make the same mistake in the future.

King Dingnan had a faint smile on his face when he heard this, but his mood was complicated.

The young man didn't say anything in detail, but the sentence "I've never been blamed" already encompassed everything.

"Let's go for a walk with my grandfather..."

The old man turned around and walked forward slowly.

Wu Chao responded "Yes" and walked two steps behind the old man.

"Do you want to hear about your mother's life?" The old man's tone was unusually gentle and distant, as if he had shed his cold and hard majesty.

The young man was slightly startled and then said: "I heard that my mother is more like my grandfather."

"They all say that, but I don't think there's any similarity. Zhenzhen is just Zhenzhen, different from everyone else. She has been a lively character since she was a child, and she has many evil ideas. Your aunt is a good apprentice she trained.

…”

The old man spoke slowly. After many years, he still remembered clearly what happened to his eldest daughter when she was young.

The grandfather and grandson walked slowly, even though there were rustling grass and trees, it was extremely quiet.

But in the carriage that the Duke of Zhen was riding in, there was a completely different atmosphere at this time.

Xu Mingyi first listened to his grandfather scolding King Dingnan, and finally lost some of his anger after scolding him. Maybe he was really tired of the scolding, and then he heard him ask again: "Zhao Zhao just told that old guy.

What happened?"

Xu Mingyi poured a cup of tea and handed it to the old man, asking him to quench his thirst. He replied: "Nothing else. I just explained the considerations and success of the entire plan."

"Why are you wasting your breath with him? I have already made it clear and clear what I need to say!"

Xu Mingyi nodded.

Well, I said a lot of things that I shouldn’t have said.

"I've already said what I said. Do you think this stubborn ass really listened to a few words?"

Xu Mingyi remained silent.

Are you sure you broke it out of words and not outright scolding?

"Mr. Wu promised his granddaughter that he would seriously consider it. I guess he must have listened." Xu Mingyi poured herself a cup of tea.

But the Duke of Zhen's eyes widened when he heard this.

——Consider it seriously?

The old guy is annoying to some people, but he has always meant what he says. Once he said he would seriously consider it, he would not just say it casually - he worked hard to say a lot, and the other party

He only said "I have nothing to say", but when it comes to his granddaughter, he will seriously consider it?

Okay, the old guy actually has two faces!

"This old thing...is really deliberately against me!" Duke Zhen Guo looked angrily.

Xu Mingyi glanced with some sympathy at the tea cup that was held tightly by the old man and lingered on the edge of being shattered into pieces, and said: "How could it be possible? According to my granddaughter, Mrs. Wu has been persuaded by her grandfather. Otherwise, just by her granddaughter

How can a few words be enough to make him change his mind? To put it bluntly, my granddaughter is just relying on her status as a junior to use the opportunity to plead and give Mr. Wu a step to relax."

Old people all care about face.

Especially someone with a status like Mrs. Wu.

Especially because her grandfather's method of "persuading" was too fierce - even though Mrs. Wu wanted to agree to such a scolding, there was no way he could lose face.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be like - "Look, this old guy really deserves to be scolded"!

And with her grandfather's style, if he really got scolded, this glorious deed would be passed down from generation to generation as a great achievement...

A few years later, the younger generations of the two families gathered together to play, and the Xu family's child was afraid to say: You know, it was thanks to my ancestors who woke up your ancestors from scolding in time that this country of thousands of miles can be as stable and prosperous as it is today.

What a scene!

I'm afraid the Wu family's baby will run away crying and never come out again.

I would like to ask, does Mrs. Wu dare to make such a far-reaching decision easily?

The Duke of Zhen frowned when he heard this. After thinking about it, he felt that this was also the case.

but……

"I'm afraid it's not that simple..." The old man didn't know what he thought of, and his expression suddenly changed: "In my opinion, this old guy is probably afraid that his grandson won't be able to marry a wife!"

At this point, I started laughing "Hahaha!"

He just said that as long as you are not completely blind, you can definitely see how good his family is!

From now on, he will use this to control that old guy! To death!

Xu Mingyi suddenly felt a little sad when he saw his grandfather enjoying himself so much, as if he had been avenged for many years.

According to this, if Mr. Wu is bold enough, can he also use this marriage to threaten her grandfather?

You must know that she is also determined to win over Wu Chao, and her grandfather has thought about it more than once, how to snatch him away if the Wu family does not agree...

Therefore, Mr. Wu lost this game because he was not confident enough.

"No matter what he thinks, our plan to save people remains unchanged." When he spoke again, Duke Zhen Guo felt extremely comfortable and ate his tea leisurely.

Now he also wants to understand that he must save the daughter of the Wu family. If the Wu family doesn't want him, the Xu family wants to snatch her away and make her the wife of his second son!

Xu Mingyi nodded.

Plans are already being made. I hope everything goes well and the Queen Mother and the Queen can be rescued safely.

It's just that the plan itself is inevitably risky. Whether it succeeds or not depends not only on being as detailed as possible, but also on luck.

Hope they have good luck.

And now she thought of Xia Tingzhen——

At this juncture, I wonder if the other party will have trouble again...

Now everyone can see that the emperor intends to attack Xia Tingzhen, and Xia Tingzhen cannot be stupid enough to have illusions about the emperor.

In this desperate situation, would people like Xia Tingzhen really be willing to sit back and wait for death and do nothing?

…

After only two days of this, headed by Ming Xiaozhi, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the imperial court issued a memorial to impeach Xia Tingzhen like snowflakes.
