It was impossible for him to win her heart back, but Yun Luo's unique skill was in his body.
"Grandpa, have some tea."
Although Nangong Yu saw this from the side, he wasn't the least bit confused. This child's joyful laughter must be the work of his wife.
The old man was stunned. Was this it? He was already used to her coldness. Suddenly, she smiled at him. He found it hard to believe.
"You …"
"I've …" He knelt in front of the old man with a sorrowful tone. "Grandfather, it's all my fault …"
The most painful thing in the world is that one's loved ones have no emotions.
"It's alright, child. Grandpa will be satisfied if I see you smile again." The old man's face was filled with gratification. This was a child who was in the middle of blooming, how could he not live happily?
Happy times are always very short, but in a short period of time, can create unlimited value.
In the evening, he accompanied his grandfather and chatted with him until it was very late.
"I still remember that when your mother gave birth to you, she made grandpa extremely happy. At that time, you were still small, and your eyes were as black and bright as grapes." If she was happy because of her granddaughter, how could the old man not be happy? But this child's life was miserable, and her parents had left early. It was this old man who had brought her up.
"Then grandpa, why did you give me this name?" It had to be said that Yun Luo's acting had always been very good. Now that she was acting like a fifteen year old, it didn't feel out of place at all.
"Because Grandpa hopes that you can live happily and happily without any worries." If there were so many troubles in the world, there would always be so many things to worry about. But because he wanted to protect his granddaughter and let her be free, he named her '.
"Thank you, grandpa." She held her grandfather's callused hands in her own, her feelings mixed.
Yun Luoluo's fate was also not good. If her only family was her grandfather, then her only family was her sister. Although the elders took care of them, but they couldn't care less, so it was impossible for the sisters to say that they didn't suffer.
Since she was very young, she had always wished that her parents were still alive. It would be best if her grandparents were there as well. Now that she saw her grandfather here, she was truly moved by their affection.
They were as insignificant as duckweed floating in the mortal world. It was likely that not many people knew of their existence. Whether they lived or died, no one would care about them, and no one would pity them.
"Little girl, it's already late at night. Why aren't you going to sleep?" The old man scratched her nose lovingly.
"Alright," she said with a smile in her eyes, "Grandpa, please remember your smile today."
Because tomorrow, he would never see his granddaughter's bright smile again, so he wanted him to remember.
The old man must have felt something in his heart, but he still pretended to be very happy on the surface. "Alright, grandpa will remember." "Go to sleep."
Although he was old, he was still aware of some things. He had been expressionless for quite some time now, but wasn't it strange that the couple had arrived today and returned to their original smiles? He noticed even more that during this period of time, he didn't see Cloudfall at all.
The old man sat in the yard for the night, and only went back to sleep the next day at daybreak.
In the kitchen, two women were busy.
"Thank you for yesterday."
It was a pity that she couldn't make an expression. Otherwise, she would definitely repay him with her most beautiful smile.
"It's alright. I've done a good deed since I was able to help your grandpa and achieve his wish." Shangguan Wan smiled. Originally, she had tried her best to restrain her smile, but after interacting with her, it seemed like she didn't care that much. Her tolerance and magnanimity had infected this foxy girl.
"The emperor is a good man, you have to cherish him." It was because of the Emperor's love for Yun Luo that he was able to persevere.
Although she was young, she had been deeply moved by Nangong Yu's love for her. She had even imagined that if she had a man like this to protect her in the future, she would have no other requests in her life.
But unfortunately, nothing was possible now, and no one would be able to marry a wife that had lost her emotions.
After breakfast was ready, Nangong Yu and Shangguan Wan ate a few simple bites. When they saw their Grandfather was in deep sleep, they couldn't bear to wake him up.
After which, it was the husband and wife pair who said their goodbyes. After all, there was still a long way to go.
On the narrow path, while riding a horse, they could also talk quite well at the same time.
"Ai, if we're both humans, then why is the difference in status so huge? "You are the emperor, whereas they are merely commoners in the mountains. What they use to eat is practically like the difference between the heaven and the earth." There was no one around, so she could only sigh.
Nangong Yu smiled, his eyes were filled with the beautiful scenery of the mountains. Before coming here, he didn't think it was that beautiful, but now, he actually discovered that it was exceptionally beautiful.
"People are born equal and live only in this world. If everyone continues to be equal, then the bad guys who do bad things will not be punished, because no one has the right to punish them. Thus, in order to maintain order in this world, someone has to carry out the punishment function. As for me, I am the person at the very top of the list, the rest are no different from them. "
Although Nangong Yu's words were a bit strange, the truth was still there.
Yun Luo smiled, "But you still didn't answer me, why are your food and clothing so much better than them?"
The emperor lived in a palace and had three thousand beauties in the imperial harem. Although this point hadn't been reflected in Nangong Yu, but everything that he had enjoyed was far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Without hesitation, Nangong Yu replied, "Power and wealth are compatible. If you want me to tell you everything, I can't explain it. Perhaps, those corrupt officials and those who want to climb up can answer you."
What a clever answer. He threw the question directly at someone else.
Yun Luo nodded, "That's true. The more power a ruler has, the more benefits he will receive. This seems to be a type of law, no one doubts it."
"But you only saw one side. What about the other?"
"On the other side?" Yun Luo was a little lost.
"It is not illogical to say that there is no coldness in high places. Ordinary citizens have died many times in their lives. However, how many people in the royal family who hold high positions can die naturally?" Nangong Yu's words caused her to be speechless.
The imperial palace and imperial court were filled with swindlers and swindlers. They were easily filled with greed, and such greed would definitely harm the interests of others. Was it for the sake of preserving one's own interests? What does it usually do? Of course it was to kill him.
The ancestors had long since proved this point, Jing Ke assassinating the Duke of Qin, which was a righteousness without fear of sacrifice, but also a true manifestation of his rebellious spirit.
