Chapter 106 Reason
Guo Xin smiled slightly, looked at the two of them with relief, and said, "It's okay. I'll take you back to meet my eldest sister. Her name is Guo Ruo. She also has a twin sister and brother. The sister is older than the brother. Their names are Guo Zhi and Guo Xi."
He Xiangan and his wife looked at Guo Xin seriously, waiting for her to continue speaking, and their tears were wiped away.
Seeing the two of them staring at him so seriously, Guo Xin felt a little embarrassed, so he went over to help them stand up and said, "Let's go to my house now. It's not big but it's quite comfortable."
……
The restaurant opposite is not like Shunan Hotpot Restaurant. The two inner floors are open to diners, and the second floor is a private room. At this time, Zhao He was sitting in a private room facing the street, leaning against the window, holding a cup of tea and looking at Shunan Hotpot Restaurant.
Although the secret guard sent to the capital to deliver the message reported that the matter had been settled, he was still worried that there was a mistake in his investigation. What if Guo Xin was not the real grandson of the He family? Wouldn't his third brother be in vain?
Ever since he learned that the General of Cavalry and his wife had quietly come to the hot pot restaurant, he has been waiting in this private room every day, waiting for the result.
At this moment, he saw Guo Xin and the general and his wife getting into the carriage with smiles on their faces and he breathed a sigh of relief.
When Wen Yan saw this scene, he joked, "Sixth Master, can you finally rest assured now? I have moved my official duties here in the past few days just to see this scene."
"Third brother's matter has finally come to an end. Why do you have to tease me like this? You know that mother's recent writings reveal all kinds of uneasiness. She's just about to ask me to go back to the capital to fight for that position." Zhao He shook the teacup in his hand and said faintly.
Wen Yan didn't say anything, just stood aside, his eyes drifting towards the bustling crowd below the restaurant, his thoughts drifting off into the distance.
In fact, although His Highness loves freedom by nature, he was brought up as the son of the royal family. His Highness's mother also had some selfish motives. Although the Third Prince also learned some lessons required for that position, the result was never as good as Concubine Jing'an wanted.
He then turned his gaze to the Sixth Prince.
Therefore, Your Highness not only needs to learn how to be a qualified royal prince, but also needs to learn how to sit in that position properly.
His Highness is young, and naturally respects his mother in everything. He has shown talents different from other princes since he was young. This naturally attracted the attention of His Majesty, and he acquiesced to Concubine Jing'an's actions.
His Highness was extremely intelligent. That year, he took advantage of a loophole in the city defense and sneaked out of the palace. Soon, he couldn't find his way back. Although he was a servant, he had hardly ever left the imperial city, so how could he find his way back?
Unconsciously, they walked to the outside of the city gate. He wanted to stop the prince from going out, but the prince insisted on going out. That time when he went out, he saw the men and women of high-ranking officials and nobles oppressing the poor people.
Your Highness has received a different education since childhood. Although he understands that no matter how strict the laws are, it is difficult to avoid such a situation, but he was still shocked when he saw such a scene that time.
The common people kneeling on the ground kowtowed continuously, begging the young masters and young ladies to return their silver to them. The young masters and young ladies looked down on them and kept making fun of the common people in front of them.
One of the young masters said that there was not much silver in the bag anyway, and it might not be enough for the whole family to live on, so it would be better to let a few people die first to avoid hardship in the future, so he threw out a sharp sword.
When the kneeling people saw that their pleas were in vain, they kept staring at each other. Finally, a few women came out, picked up swords and slashed their necks with determination, and blood splattered everywhere.
The young masters and young ladies were not frightened. Instead, they felt that they had done a good thing. They threw the silver to them with a smile and told the people that their lives would be much better in the future.
After His Highness came back from studying the art of ruling and the way of weighing power, he found His Majesty and said that he no longer wanted to learn these and only wanted to be a free and easy prince.
When asked the reason, he remained silent.
Later, the Queen had no choice. His Majesty also loved the Prince because of his talent and felt that the Prince was most like him. Even though he was unwilling to go to that position, he followed the Prince's wishes and went.
After I grew older, I followed His Highness on his travels around the country and saw how His Highness was slowly changing the lives of the local people with his own efforts. I gradually understood why His Highness was unwilling to sit in that position.
But he still didn't give up, and the queen would always ask him to persuade His Highness to return to the capital to fight for it again, so he just followed his will and took advantage of every opportunity to keep persuading Him, hoping that His Highness would be kind-hearted and not drive him away.
……
"Sister! I'm back!" Guo Xin brought the general and his wife to the inner courtyard and shouted towards Guo Zhi's bedroom.
"Hey, you're finally back. I've been thinking about how I can't figure out this number, and I was just about to ask you." Guo Ruo walked out with a pen in his left hand and an account book in his right hand.
Seeing that there were two elderly people following Guo Xin, he was somewhat surprised and puzzled, and asked, "What is this?"
As soon as she saw Guo Ruo coming out, Mrs. He burst into tears instantly. Until this moment, she truly felt what the blood of the He family was. At that time, although she met Guo Xin, she still didn't have that feeling in her heart.
When Guo Ruoyi came out, he looked like her husband when he was young, with a scholarly look on his face, and his demeanor was just like her childhood self. She could truly feel the inheritance of the He family's bloodline.
It's just a pity that she never got to see her son get married and have children. It was a big regret for her as a mother. Although she had done enough homework for her other children's marriages, she still felt very regretful and annoyed.
"Ah, why are you crying, old lady?" Guo Ruo threw the brush and account book on the ground in a panic, took out his handkerchief, walked towards Mrs. He, and helped wipe her tears.
He Xiangan was also stunned when he looked at Guo Ruo's appearance. He looked very elegant when he was young, so elegant that he didn't look like a man. But after he went to the battlefield, his appearance gradually changed. The Guo Ruo in front of him was 60% similar to himself when he was young.
"Sister, these are our grandparents." Guo Xin said at the right time.
Guo Ruo suddenly paused with the handkerchief on Mrs. He's face and looked at the old lady in front of him in a daze.
She didn't expect that she could find her biological grandmother, who was such a kind person.
Ever since she found out that her father was not her biological father, she thought that her father was a boy stolen by her grandmother. However, he has not been found for so many years. She thought that her father's father and mother didn't care about him, so she gave up the idea of looking for her biological grandparents.
The old couple in front of me suddenly appeared in front of me, saying that they were my biological grandparents. This dream didn't seem so real...
