Mingjin followed his grandmother into the inner room and no longer cared about what was happening behind him.

She had no time to care.

She walked all the way inside, her eyes always looking at her grandmother's face. When she was inside and there was no one else, she finally couldn't help but whispered, "Grandma..."

Princess Fuhua could sense her mood from her tone. She sighed softly and said to Mingjin, "I don't blame you."

Pull her to sit down together.

Looking at the face of the girl beside him, the old man opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say, and finally asked: "When did you know?"

Mingjin didn't know what she was asking.

Just as she was about to ask, the old man spoke to her first: "When did you know about the letter?"

When Ming Jin heard this, he was silent for a moment.

After a while, she replied truthfully: "Half a month ago."

This was an answer Princess Fuhua did not expect. She opened her eyes wide and wanted to say something, but she was so shocked that she could not utter a word.

Ming Jin explained to her: "The prince told me."

She told Princess Fuhua what Gu Mingheng had said to her that day.

"Why didn't you say it? Why didn't you tell me?" The old man looked at Mingjin, tears in his eyes, and asked her in a hoarse voice.

Ming Jin was silent for a moment before he said, "What I thought at the time was that since the incident had already passed, there was no need to stir up any more trouble."

"Anyway, the ending is that I came back."

She didn't expect that the storm would cause even bigger waves.

No one can hide it, no one can stop it.

Ming Jin's hand was squeezed so hard by the old man that it hurt, but she didn't cry out in pain. Looking at the old man's sad face, she gently squeezed his hand as if to comfort him.

"It's all over, Grandma."

"How can it be possible?" Princess Fuhua looked at Mingjin and answered in a hoarse voice.

Mingjin knew what she meant.

Things have come to this point and there is no way they can get over it.

But for her, this matter has been cut off by her and it is truly over.

"Do you blame me?"

She asked the old man hesitantly.

This was her only worry.

The old man looked at her and said, "Strange."

Just one word destroyed the calm mask Ming Jin was trying to maintain.

She looked at the old man, her pupils slightly dilated and her eyes flickering.

He lowered his eyes helplessly.

"Grandma, I..."

She spoke.

But the old man cut her off: "I blame you for having suffered so much injustice and hiding it to yourself."

Looking at the girl's face raised again.

Princess Fuhua was even more distressed. She held the girl's hand tightly, and asked her in a hoarse and choked voice, "Yanyan, why didn't you say anything? Are you really afraid of trouble and don't want to care? Or are you afraid that no one will stand by you?"

Mingjin couldn't answer.

The old man looked at her with tears in his eyes, and couldn't help himself and held her in his arms.

"What gave you the illusion that your grandmother wouldn't stand by you? Or has the past ten years finally made us, the grandparents and grandchildren, grow apart?"

"No, no, absolutely not!"

Listening to the old man's words, Ming Jin was flustered for the first time, and she couldn't wait to refute the old man's words.

"I never thought you wouldn't stand by me, and I never felt that I was separated from you."

"You are the best person to me in this world."

"It is also because of you that I want to return to this home and stay in this home."

"Grandma, I'm just afraid..."

Mingjin now told her everything that he had concealed and dared not say in the past for fear that his grandmother would misunderstand him.

"I was afraid that you would be embarrassed and uncomfortable, so I thought it would be better to have less trouble than more. Anyway, I didn't suffer any loss."

Princess Fuhua felt even more sad when she heard these words.

She hugged the girl in front of her even tighter with both hands.

"You silly boy."

After she cried and shouted, when she felt the girl's helpless hands patting her back gently as if to comfort her, Princess Fuhua felt her heart aching even more.

For the first time, she felt like such a failure.

She did not teach her son well, making him only care about interests first, and also made her young granddaughter worry about her.

If this incident had not happened, how much more injustice would she have suffered without her knowledge?

The hesitation she had previously felt about leaving home finally disappeared completely at this moment.

She stopped crying and sobbing.

"Yan Yan."

After the old man sat up straight, he looked directly at the girl's face and said to her seriously for the first time: "Promise grandma that you will not live for anyone else in the future. Live for yourself."

"Grandma can't stay with you for too long, and you don't need to compromise for her."

Ming Jin's face changed when she heard this. She retorted anxiously: "No, you will live a hundred years!"

"Silly boy."

Princess Fuhua couldn't help laughing when she heard this: "Those True Lords in Laojun Mountain may not live to be a hundred years old, so what virtue and ability do I have?"

Without waiting for Mingjin to say anything else.

She reached out and gently stroked Mingjin's face: "Listen to me."

Ming Jin looked at her pursed lips and could only shut up.

Princess Fuhua looked at her lovingly and said, "You must listen to what I just told you. I will also tell your parents not to bother you in the future."

"Yanyan, life is not easy. You have suffered too much in the first half of your life. Grandmother hopes that you will have smooth sailing and success in everything in the future."

Ming Jin choked up and held the old man's hand on her face, still stubbornly saying: "Then grandma has to stay with me."

"Grandma is coming with me."

She suddenly suggested.

This was not a spur-of-the-moment thought, but what she really thought.

"I will accompany you from now on and take care of you, just like now. Can you accompany me to the Princess's Mansion?"

This was the first time she had prayed like this.

Tears in the eyes, hope in the heart.

Princess Fuhua also wanted to agree. This period of time was also the happiest time for her in recent years.

Eat and take walks with my precious granddaughter every day.

Sometimes the grandparents and grandchildren would sleep together and talk while lying on the same bed.

She couldn't imagine how she would live without her granddaughter by her side.

But she couldn't be so selfish after all.

There was still room for discussion when Yanyan went to the Princess's Mansion, after all, it was the mansion bestowed upon her by His Majesty.

But if she left home with Yanyan, it would have a different meaning. Not to mention those people outside, I'm afraid the impeachment memorials from the censors would fill up the emperor's desk.

She couldn't be so selfish.

Although her eldest son disappointed her, she couldn't really ignore the whole family.

"Your brothers want to get married, your sisters want to get married, and your grandmother can't leave."

"If grandma passes away, this family will be in chaos."

She touched Mingjin's head and said, "Be good, go live your life and don't worry about these things. Grandma will come to see you when she misses you."

Although I knew this would be the result.

But when Ming Jin heard the rejection from his grandmother, he couldn't help crying.

She cried and buried her face in the old man's knees.

Princess Fuhua also had tears in her eyes. She said nothing, but raised her hand and placed it on Mingjin's head.

Wait until Mingjin has almost finished crying.

She said in a hoarse voice: "You will be the one in charge from now on. You can't let the child cry like this, otherwise the people below will not obey you."

Ming Jin replied in a hoarse voice: "My granddaughter knows."

She is only like this on her grandmother's side.

"Have you made arrangements for the people you're going to take with you?" Princess Fuhua asked her.

Mingjin nodded one by one.

She didn't really have anything to bring.

The princess has a wet nurse in her mansion, and Hua Sui and three others are by her side.

As for the rest, if you want to follow, you can follow, if you don’t want to follow, that’s fine too, Mingjin doesn’t care.

Princess Fuhua originally wanted to give a few more instructions, but her granddaughter was so capable that she could handle the situation well even without her.

in contrast.

Her existence has instead put her in shackles.

Thinking of this, Princess Fuhua was silent for a while, not letting her granddaughter see. She quickly smiled and said, "I'm at ease with you doing the work. Go ahead. My Yanyan will be happy every day from now on."

These words made Mingjin feel uncomfortable again.

She suddenly hugged the old man, somewhat reluctant to leave: "Granddaughter will stay with you for a few more days."

Doesn’t Princess Fuhua want to do that too?

She wished she could have her granddaughter with her every day.

But she finally said, "Yanyan, look forward."

"Grandma is always here. You can come back whenever you want. I will visit you if I miss you. But don't change your mind or stop for anyone else."

“You don’t have to change for anyone, just make yourself happy.”

"grandmother……"

Mingjin couldn't say anything else.

The old man smiled and touched her head: "Go."

Ming Jin was silent.

After a while, she said in a hoarse voice: "I don't want to care about Mingyao, but grandma, you have to be careful, I'm afraid..."

The words are not finished yet.

Princess Fuhua smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandmother knows."

She had experienced power struggles and was not an ordinary old and incompetent old woman. The eldest son protected her for his own benefit, and she had no right to interfere.

But she couldn't think of staying in this house any longer.

Her granddaughter was forced to leave home by them. How could she possibly watch a fake continue to occupy her home with a clear conscience?

Her eyes were indifferent, and she was still kind and gentle as she stroked Mingjin's head and spoke: "Grandmother will take care of these things, you just need to take care of yourself."

"As long as you are well, grandma will be relieved."
