Those who were carrying vegetable baskets to buy ingredients saw a horse running towards them crazily, and they all quickly stepped back to make way for the horse.
After the crazy horse moved away, he glared at the horse and cursed: "Are you in such a hurry to reincarnate!"
After scolding, he continued to pretend that nothing happened and continued talking, laughing and bargaining for groceries.
When Xiang Yu rode his horse and rushed all the way to the cell where his grandfather was imprisoned, he saw Xiao Cui standing in front of the cell wearing a sackcloth and wearing filial piety.
When Xiao Cui saw the very ugly person on the carriage, her eyes immediately turned red.
Although the person on the carriage was very ugly and did not look like her lady, the unbelievable eyes, worried look on the person's face and the same thin body as her lady convinced Xiao Cui that the person on the carriage was her lady.
"Miss, I knew you would come back here."
Xiao Cui said this with a trembling voice, and the tears that were originally hanging in her red eyes fell uncontrollably.
Xiang Yu got off his horse and walked up to Xiao Cui. He looked at Xiao Cui's mourning clothes and moved the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Xiao Cui, are you mourning your grandmother or..."
Xiang Yu choked up in the middle of her words, and she couldn't say the rest.
Xiao Cui's misty eyes looked at the young lady who was trying not to let the tears fall in her eyes even though her eyes were already red. She quickly lowered her head to prevent Xiang Yu from seeing the tears in his eyes and making the young lady cry.
Xiaocui handed the letter tightly held in her hand to Xiang Yu: "Miss, this is for you, the Prime Minister."
Xiang Yu first glanced at Xiao Cui, who was trembling slightly.
She already knew from Xiao Cui's expression that what those young students said was true. What Xiao Cui was holding was a letter written to her by her grandfather before his death.
Xiang Yu stared at Xiaocui and pinched his hand hard to keep her calm, then slowly raised his hand and reached for the letter.
Although Xiang Yu's hand didn't seem to be shaking, Xiang Yu knew very well that she had just lost her grandmother and had almost no courage to pick up the letter.
Xiang Yu didn't accept the letter for a long time, until a broad arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her into his arms.
"The king is here."
Cen Nuo looked down at Xiang Yu, whose eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes, and spoke softly.
Cen Nuo's soft but powerful voice gave Li Xiangyu great strength.
She took the letter and slowly opened it.
"Yu'er~ When you read this letter, your grandfather is no longer alive. Grandpa knows that when Yu'er learned about this disappearance, she must have been thinking about who framed her grandfather? Who killed her grandfather? But grandpa wants to tell Yu'er, my grandfather's death had nothing to do with anyone else, it was my grandfather who took the initiative to beg the emperor to die."
"With Yu'er's intelligence, grandpa is sure that Yu'er will gain something from his trip to Jiangzhou. But grandpa hopes that Yu'er can forget everything you investigated in Jiangzhou, and then have a good relationship with the Seventh Prince. Life. Grandpa also knows that Yu'er will definitely ask why? All grandpa can tell Yu'er is that what you are investigating now, Yu'er, is a taboo for you, so grandpa begs Yu'er not to continue investigating."
"Grandpa looked at Yu'er's serious expression when he wanted to investigate the truth for grandpa. Grandpa knew that it would be impossible for Yu'er to stop the investigation, so grandpa could only promise Yu'er to wait for you in the cell to rescue grandpa from prison. My son, don’t blame your grandfather for being selfish and deceiving you. Yu’er, you have to believe that everything your grandfather did was to protect you!”
"Your grandmother has left your grandfather. There is no one else in this world that he deserves to care about except you. My grandfather failed to protect Yu'er's mother, my daughter, so this time my grandfather must protect Yu'er. Protect my grandfather’s only granddaughter, even if it means sacrificing my own life!”
"My grandfather also knows that the departure of his grandfather and grandmother will definitely make Yu'er very sad, but now Yu'er has the seventh prince who has his heart and eyes full of you. Grandpa believes that the love of the seventh prince will make Yu'er live without his grandfather and grandmother. Live a better life. Yu'er, you still have a long life, promise your grandfather to live it well. Yu Xuan personally wrote this letter, and Yu'er personally opened it."
When Xiangyu read half of the letter, her tears began to overflow uncontrollably. When she finished reading the letter in her hand, the tears that fell from the corners of her eyes had already stained half of the rice paper.
Xiang Yu's fingers that were holding the envelope tightly turned pale.
Cen Nuo hugged Xiang Yu's body and held her tightly in his arms.
Xiangyu grabbed the clothes on Cen Nuo's chest and buried his head deeply in Cen Nuo's chest.
A rapid and muffled cry sounded to its peak.
"Grandpa..."
She... After all, she still failed to protect this family relationship...
Cen Nuo gently stroked Xiang Yu's back to comfort her.
"No matter what happens, I will always be there."
Ren'er, who was held in Cen Nuo's arms, was breathing short and slow due to her suppressed and helpless cries...
Later, his breathing became so slow that he couldn't even feel the breathing of the person in his arms, and the hands of the person in his arms that were tightly squeezing his clothes loosened.
"Little Feather!"
Cen Nuo let go of Xiang Yu's hand and lowered his head. The only thing that came into his eyes was Xiang Yu's tightly closed eyes and his deathly pale face.
His little feathers fainted in his arms with tears in their eyes.
The fan in Cen Nuo's hand was crushed to pieces by him.
In the prime minister's house.
Xiang Yu was wearing white linen clothes, with empty eyes and a pale face, standing in front of his grandfather's body.
Although the doctor told her to stay in bed and rest, she ignored the doctor's advice and appeared in front of the prime minister's coffin wearing mourning clothes.
Before she saw her grandfather, she almost cried so much that she couldn't breathe. But when she really saw her grandfather's dark green face and his peaceful expression, she felt surprisingly calm, and even the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile on her face. A rare smile.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. My grandfather spent most of his life in the court, fighting against each other. Now he can finally live a leisurely life with his grandmother in peace. She should be happy for them.
Because my grandfather confessed his crime on his own initiative, the emperor remembered that his grandfather had an old friendship with him and that he had made significant contributions to the economic and cultural development of the Yu Dynasty during his tenure as prime minister. Therefore, he specially agreed to allow the prime minister's body to be brought back to the prince. In the mansion, there is a funeral in the mansion.
During the Prime Minister's reign, he was honest and friendly to the people and did many good things for the people, so many people voluntarily came to express condolences to the Prime Minister.
Xiang Yu stood steadily in front of his grandfather's coffin, observing his grandfather carefully.
This would be the last time she would see her grandfather, so she wanted to imprint his appearance into her mind.
As soon as Xiang Yue, who came to express condolences to the Prime Minister, entered the room, she locked onto Xiang Yu's lonely back among the crowd coming in and out.
