Only after being reborn did I realize that I was the white moonlight of a powerful minister.

Chapter 111 Grandma



Chapter 111 Grandma

The waiter came over to ask if she was alright, but Yunzhi didn't dare turn around. She took out some silver and gave it to the waiter as compensation before hurriedly going upstairs.

Xie Bohuai only glanced in Yunzhi's direction and caught a glimpse of her back. Qingshan, on the other hand, said, "Why does this person's figure look somewhat familiar?"

"Who does he look like?" Xie Bohuai asked.

Aoyama couldn't quite place it. "She just looked familiar, but I couldn't place her for a moment. I don't recognize the woman with the child either; it must be my imagination. The snow outside seems to have stopped."

The snow has stopped, and they should leave.

Despite the snow reaching their thighs, they had to keep going because they had to meet the rebel king.

Xie Bohuai received news that someone wanted to kill the traitorous king.

As they left the inn, a gust of wind blew by, and snowflakes clung to their cheeks. Qingshan shivered and continued on his way with his master.

Yunzhi stayed at the inn for two days, and only after the snow melted a bit did she take Le Ge'er to Princess Longyu's villa.

After many years, Princess Longyu looked at Yunzhi and then at Lege'er, speechless for a long time.

Jiang Mama squatted down again, took a piece of candy and gave it to Le Ge'er. "You must be Le Ge'er? You're so cute. This old servant is Jiang Mama. You look just like your mother." She also looked like Xie Bohuai, but she kept these words to herself and didn't say them out loud.

Le Ge'er took the candy and snuggled close to Yunzhi, blinking his big eyes. He saw the old woman at the head of the table beckoning to him, but he didn't go over until Yunzhi said he could go over. Only then did he walk over, turning back every few steps.

Princess Longyu hugged Le Ge'er. Seeing Le Ge'er reminded her of Ye Wanning. She touched Le Ge'er's cheek and asked, "Le Ge'er, do you know who I am?"

Le Ge'er shook his head, "Who are you?"

"I am your maternal grandmother." Princess Longyu patted Le'er's head, growing fonder with each look. She hadn't felt the warmth of life in a long time. "Why don't you and Granny Jiang go have some snacks?"

"But……"

"Don't be afraid, Le-ge'er. Granny Jiang and the others are good people." Yunzhi gently comforted him. "Granny Jiang will take you to eat the most delicious snacks. Once we're here, you don't have to be afraid anymore. No bad people will chase us anymore."

Le Ge'er looked at Yunzhi, then at Granny Jiang. The child was still a little hesitant until Granny Jiang brought over some pastries, and he took a bite before being coaxed away.

Once there was no one else in the room, Princess Longyu asked where Ye Wanning was.

"Your Highness, this servant doesn't know where our mistress is. We were being chased and split into two groups heading to the capital." Yunzhi was also worried; they had already arrived in the capital, but their mistress hadn't.

Princess Longyu sighed, "In the end, you were exposed. I just don't know who is investigating you. I can't think of that for now. What are Wan Ning's plans? Has she told you?"

"I told you, Master said that if we all reach the capital safely, we should restore our identities. As for Le'er, it's fine to say he's an adopted son or a son born of marriage. Just say he was swept downstream and, due to injuries and illness, hasn't had a chance to return. If Master doesn't return, please ask Your Highness to arrange a place for Le'er, and I will take him to live in seclusion." At this point, Yunzhi's eyes reddened. She still hadn't heard from her master; what should she do?

Princess Longyu, hearing that Ye Wanning had an idea, could only go along with it. "Fortunately, in order to cover up the truth, the Ye family found the body when it was already unrecognizable. Now that Wanning has returned, it makes sense. It's just that she finally escaped the powerful circles of the capital, and her return will only bring her more trouble."

After a pause, Princess Longyu knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she decided to say it first: "You probably don't know that on the day Wan Ning was buried, Xie Bohuai went to open Wan Ning's coffin."

"Why?"

"Everyone in the capital is saying that he is in love with Wan Ning," Princess Longyu said.

Yunzhi frowned. How could such a thing happen?

She hadn't noticed anything before. If Lord Xie really had feelings for his master, why didn't he say so sooner?

"Alright, I'm just letting you know about this now. You and Le'er should settle in comfortably. I'll send someone to find Wan Ning, and once we find her, we'll discuss the future." Princess Longyu instructed Yunzhi to go and make the arrangements. There was no point in discussing the future now.

Meanwhile, Ye Wanning was also approaching the capital, but she was unlucky and encountered the Lu family's escort of the rebel king, and was being inspected.
