With just one sentence, he had completely changed the lives of those girls!

"Yes, your subordinate will take his leave!" As soon as the green figure received the order, it retreated a few steps.

From start to finish, the man in white never turned around, nor did he reveal his real appearance. He was just a snow-white figure!

In the past, Jin Hua was the late emperor's close friend, so he killed countless enemies on the battlefield. After risking his life several times to save the late emperor, the late emperor, on account of his kindness and meritorious services, bestowed upon him the title of the late emperor as the late Duke of Ling.

The eldest son, Yuan Huaizhou, and the second son, Yuan Huaihe, all joined the battle and made meritorious service for Cangyue. The youngest son, Yuan Huai Cheng, was now the son of the Crown Prince, and his disciples were numerous in Cangyue. His only daughter, Yuan Qingping, was the mother of Hua Yuan.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a petite and pretty figure walked out. Her pretty face was carved from jade, and her face was indescribably cute. She seemed to be around ten years old, and her bright and clear eyes contained a hint of craftiness.

"Sister, it's time to go to my grandfather's house. Get out of the car quickly!" Hua Yuan stepped down from the carriage and shouted towards the interior of the carriage.

In the next moment, a wrist as white as jade lifted the curtain, and a graceful figure walked out of the carriage. The appearance of the twelve-year-old Hua Yufei had already expanded, and one could faintly see that she would become an outstanding beauty in the future.

"This servant greets Miss Biao. Quickly inform the old master, Miss Biao has come." Upon seeing that the person who came was Hua Yuan, the gatekeeper of the mansion hurriedly bowed and led her into the mansion. He even ordered some people to report to him.

When Hua Yufei saw Hua Yuan being valued so highly, her eyes flashed with jealousy. She pretended to be uneasy as she whispered, "Little sister, I came here so hastily to disturb Duke Ling, is that not appropriate?" If the Duke of Ling didn't like it, wouldn't it implicate his little sister? Otherwise, it would be best for elder sister to wait for you in the carriage outside the estate.

"Elder sister, please rest assured, my grandfather dotes on me and would definitely not get angry at me for such a small matter. If you leave now, my grandfather would only blame Iris for not being sensible and neglecting this rare guest!" And what about his grandmother? If my sister had left, my grandmother would have been angry with Iris and would never look at her again! " Hua Yuan pursed her lips, holding Hua Yufei's arm with a wronged look, as if she was a little sister flirting coquettishly with her elder sister.

This was exactly what Hua Yufei wanted. She wanted to let the people of the Ling Country know the importance she held in Hua Yuan's heart, so that they would be willing to be her stepping stone.

"Little sister, don't flatten your mouth. Otherwise, others would think that big sister is bullying you!" Hua Yufei smiled gently as a light flashed in her eyes.

Hua Yuan let go of Hua Yufei's hand and, like a fluttering butterfly, the smile on her jade carved face continued to introduce her to the sights and sights of the mansion.

No one noticed that Hua Yuan's expression had changed several times since she had entered the Duke's mansion.

And no one had noticed the hidden excitement and emotions behind her radiant smile. She had experienced it all once again, and now that everything that had once been destroyed had appeared before her eyes once more, her shock and emotions could not be described with words.

Thinking about how her grandfather's family had been exterminated because of her, a sense of guilt welled up in her heart. Hua Yuan's empty chest hurt as if a knife was cutting into it …

"Hahaha …" I was wondering where this little fairy came from, but it turned out to be my little Iris. No wonder that magpie was outside the window this morning, hahahaha … Is Iris coming to show his grandfather how tall he is? " A burst of hearty laughter rang out. Duke Ling, who was over fifty years old but still had a strong body, walked out with a smile. When he saw the doting Little Iris, his smile became even wider as he spoke with a doting laugh.

Hua Yuan held back the tears in her eyes and threw herself into her grandfather's embrace with her little mouth pouting at him, "Grandfather, Little Iris misses you so much! Do you miss me? " He thought that when he saw his grandfather again, he would not know how to get along with him. However, when he truly met him, he realized that there were some things that didn't require too much imagination. His body's instincts surpassed everything else.

"Hahaha …" My little Iris is acting coquettishly with my grandfather! Hahaha … You better not cry, otherwise your cousin will laugh at you when he comes over. From the start until now, Duke Ling had never even looked at Hua Yufei who came with Hua Yuan. In his eyes, there was only his precious granddaughter; nothing else entered his eyes.

Hua Yuan stomped her feet and said coquettishly, "Grandfather hates it. I won't play with him anymore."

After saying that, she rolled her eyes and ran over to Hua Yufei, pulling her sleeve as she said, "Elder sister, let's go inside to play. Grandfather is bullying others, we don't care about him."

"Iris, how can you be so rude to your elders?" Hua Yufei berated Hua Yuan in a soft voice. She then walked up to the Duke of Ling and bowed, saying, "Junior Hua Yufei greets Duke of Ling. She has been spoiled too much. Please forgive her for the faux pas."

Hua Yufei, who was eager to show off her skills, wanted to attract the attention of the Duke of Ling, but she ignored the displeasure in the Duke of Ling's eyes.

"I think it's good for Young Iris to be like this. There's nothing disrespectful about it." He waved his hand for the servant to serve tea and said, "Treat Miss Hua well. Little Iris, come with your grandfather. He has something he wants to talk to you about."

With that, the Duke of Ling swung his sleeves and left in a domineering manner.

"Oh." Hua Yuan responded and was about to follow, but was stopped by Hua Yufei.

Little sister, I've long heard that the scenery of the Duke of Ling's mansion is extremely beautiful. This is my first time here, and I want to go out and take a look at the beautiful scenery of the mansion. Hua Yufei didn't expect that that old thing, the Duke of Ling, would disregard his feelings so much; her heart was filled with hatred, but she didn't dare to show it. Thinking about what he had said about Cousin Hua Yuan being in the palace, her thoughts stirred.

Hua Yuan obviously wouldn't believe her excuse that was filled with holes. However, since she had brought it up, how could she refuse? She also wanted to see what Hua Yufei wanted to do. She didn't believe that the madame would not have expected her grandfather's attitude towards Hua Yufei. Based on the madame's style of conduct, she must have some tricks up her sleeve!

"Sure! You must serve my sister well, or else I will have my grandfather beat you up, do you understand? " Hua Yuan ordered two maids to follow beside Hua Yufei. In addition to Hua Yufei's two maidservants, their group was quite lively.

"Bai Qin, wait a moment …"

Hua Yuan whispered a few words into Bai Qin's ear. Bai Qin looked at her in shock before nodding with a serious expression.

When Bai Qin was asked to do some work, Hua Yuan had no one by her side. She easily passed through the fake mountains in the front yard and turned into a long corridor. At the end of the corridor was her grandfather's study.

Just as she was about to open the door to the study, the door suddenly opened from the inside. She pushed until it was empty and threw herself forward …

Ah!

The moment the door was opened, a sharp dagger flashed with a deep light as it attacked her!

The speed was so fast that she didn't have time to react. She could only stare with wide eyes at the sharp dagger that was heading her way …
