After hearing this, Ji Xuande realized that he had somewhat misspoken.

Xi Mengyao was very persistent, but the old man just looked down at the hole in her shoe. Seeing this, Xi Mengyao more or less guessed it.

"It's related to the imperial government." she said confidently.

Ji Xuande suddenly raised his head, and after he looked at her, he only shook his head. "If this old man were to say it, it would be better if you did not end up in a dilemma."

Hearing her words, Xi Mengyao more or less understood what was going on: "But now that I have been tricked, if you don't say anything, it would be harmful to me."

The old man remained silent, as though he wanted to bite him to death. Seeing that, Xi Mengyao had no other choice.

He didn't expect Paner to be so nameless. He admired Xi Mengyao and didn't know where he got the courage to do so, but he grabbed onto the old mister's sleeves and said loudly: "This big sister is a sensible person, just tell her!"

After Ji Xuande heard this, he could only sigh. In the end, he nodded his head.

Since he decided not to hide it from them, he decided to be honest and told them everything that had happened.

He came from Hengxian County, which was originally a fertile place, but who knew that last year, he transferred a group of foreigners here from the State of Zhi.

Those men had taken the land of the people and bullied the squire.

Everyone was discontented, but those above that level did not care. Ji Xuande naturally could not bear to see this, and only spoke a few sentences, but the Zhizhou Region naturally did not do anything to him, but then something else happened!

"That group of people are causing trouble in Heng County, causing the people to feel uneasy. It's a cold now, and many people have fled. I also wanted to report this to them. Who would have thought that after coming over, they would …"

Along the way, the corpses of hungry people were scattered all over the place, leaving behind a scene of devastation. However, it seemed like no one had reported this to the sect!

"In order to pacify the war, the Emperor did many things, but... But now, it's completely useless. Not to mention the civilians, even the army is not full. In the long run, how should we fight against the enemies, how should we fight against them? "

As the old man spoke, he became excited again. Xi Mengyao was also extremely surprised when she heard him, she did not expect things to have progressed to this stage.

"But …" Is there no one else who would say it? "

Hearing her words, Old Master Yuan shook his head. "Someone said it, but …"

He pointed to his own ears and said, "There's someone who can't hear you."

As he sighed, he felt as if thousands of bitter water had flowed into his heart.

Xi Mengyao understood after seeing it, but she still could not help but say this after being silent for a moment: "I wonder who He Shidao is now! It was actually so abandoned! If the late emperor saw this, he would probably be so angry that he would wake up. "

When he heard her words, the lordmaster's face was also filled with emotions.

"Yeah, the late emperor originally thought that he should be considerate enough to the common people. He did not want to ascend to the throne, and yet he turned out to be such a weak and weak person!"

In that moment, he too felt many emotions.

He pushed Paner out, and only looked at Xi Mengyao: "This girl has followed me here, and suffered quite a bit. Since she likes you now, can you bring her along?"

Paner also looked at Xi Mengyao at this time, the emotions in her eyes became complicated all of a sudden. From the looks of it, there were a lot of things that she did not want to say, but she did not want to do it either.

How is this similar to Yu Han?

Xi Mengyao immediately understood that this was a deep grudge, how could this girl give up so easily.

As she thought about it, she looked at Paner and turned to look at him. That old man also had complicated thoughts, in the end, she only lowered his head and fell silent.

"This girl hates me, but she's a good person." In the end, it was Ji Xuande Cang who spoke.

His voice was low and sad.

Xi Mengyao nodded.

He seemed to be recalling a memory as he sighed and said, "She is right to be high-spirited. Her mother is also a courageous person, but after all, she came from an aristocratic family's daughter. She would never have thought that the Emperor would disregard friendship so much."

The old man could only sigh once, but Paner could not help but ask: "You know my mother?"

The old man only smiled when he heard that, then waved his hand. "Who doesn't know your mother? Your mother was one of the most famous talented girls in the capital. "

Paner had been sent to the medicine valley ever since she had learned how to read. This was the first time she heard someone speak so generously about her mother.

"Then my mother …" "She …" When she said these words, there was a trace of cowardice in her tone.

She was afraid after all. If she heard too much, she would lose control of herself. Her hands clenched tightly, but at this moment, Xi Mengyao suddenly grabbed her shoulder.

Paner turned to look at her, but Xi Mengyao only shook his head: "Let's not talk about this for now, I know what you are thinking, but if you are going to stay by my side, you have to listen to me, if you are willing, then I will bring you along, I will think of a way to avenge you."

Hearing that, Paner could not help but turn and look at her. Seeing Xi Mengyao's gaze, she suddenly shook, then bit her lips and nodded: "I believe in big sister."

Hearing her words, Ji Xuande frowned, "This child's mind is quite simple. I have never seen her trust someone this much before …"

Hearing his words, Xi Mengyao nodded her head and laughed, "That's right."

With that, she patted Paner's head, but did not continue asking.

She didn't want to push them too hard. These people were too pitiful. They didn't do anything and were treated like this just because they were in the way.

A blood feud.

Just how strong must such a child be to be able to bear it?

"Speaking of which, it's the same for the imperial court. The number of people who speak the truth is becoming fewer and fewer."

Xi Mengyao was annoyed just thinking about it.

"Nowadays …" Princes and princes should be able to listen to the administration. " But at this moment, Ji Xuande said in a neither light nor heavy voice, "I wonder which prince is better now."

"The prince in the court that can speak, is Third Prince Song Qian."

"Him?" Ji Xuande seemed to be extremely surprised, and he couldn't help but let out a loud shout.

Xi Mengyao was a little doubtful, but seeing that Ji Xuande was only shaking his head, he couldn't help but shake it.

Third Prince's personality was almost exactly the same as the current Emperor. Moreover, he was a bit more impulsive and unscrupulous, as if he would be tricked by others at that time.

Hearing his evaluation, Xi Mengyao also shook her head and laughed bitterly. She could not help but turn to look at Paner and sigh. "If your parents were still in the capital, it might be a completely different world."

Unexpectedly, after Paner heard this, he lowered her head, her small face turned pale white, and laughed helplessly, then became silent.

"If only Father and Mother were still here …" She could not say anything else.

Seeing her lower her head in silence, Xi Mengyao's heart suddenly had all sorts of emotions. She wanted to rush over, but who would have thought that she would hear a scream from the outside.
