Xie Yao accepted the mistake and smiled with her grandfather. She put her hand on his grandfather's shoulder and squeezed it slowly, "Grandpa, don't be angry yet. Listen to me and tell you slowly."
"Speak quickly! Do you want to kill me!" Old General Xie opened Xie Yao's hand with a serious look on his face, "If you can't convince me with your reasons, see if I don't break your legs today!"
Xie Yao smiled awkwardly and explained bravely, "Actually, I told you that I planned to leave Prince Han's Mansion a long time ago. Now it's just an old matter again."
Grandfather also said before that she would not be allowed to leave Prince Han's Mansion because if the General's Mansion fell, she could still rely on Prince Han's Mansion to continue to live.
"Bringing up old things again?" Old General Xie's eyes suddenly rose with anger, and he looked at Xie Yao angrily.
After staring for a while, the anger in his eyes disappeared instantly, leaving only helplessness and dejection. He sighed heavily, "That's all, this is your own business, you can make your own decision. I'm old.
I can’t take care of so many things anymore.”
Xie Yao's nose felt sore after hearing this. She stood behind her grandfather again and slowly squeezed his shoulders. "You are not old. It's your granddaughter who is too disobedient. She likes to make her own decisions on everything. She doesn't listen to my grandfather. It's her fault."
.”
Old General Xie did not open Xie Yao's hand anymore and shook his head feebly, "That's it! You are not as confused as before. You have grown up and your wings have become stronger. Fly away, this sky belongs to you young people after all.
"
Xie Yao heard the sadness and weakness in her grandfather's words. She didn't know how to respond for a moment, so she concentrated on squeezing her grandfather's shoulders.
However, Old General Xie guessed Xie Yao's thoughts, "You don't have to think about how to comfort me. You know exactly how my old bones are doing. You just need to take care of yourself. No matter in Prince Han's Mansion,
Or somewhere else, as long as you can live a good life, you will be worthy of me."
Xie Yao felt relieved when she saw that her grandfather had truly accepted her request to resign. "Grandpa, don't worry, as long as I am here, I will definitely protect your old bones."
"You protect me?" When Old General Xie spoke, there was a slight chuckle of disbelief in his tone. But thinking of the recent events and the role Xie Yao played in these events, he suddenly felt enlightened.
I just said that Xie Yao has grown up and her wings have become stronger, just to comfort myself, but in fact Xie Yao has really grown up, not only does she not need her protection, but she can also protect him.
He can rest assured.
Almost instantly, a pair of old eyes burst into tears, unable to stop them at all.
Seeing this, Xie Yao thought that her words had hurt her grandfather, and quickly leaned down to comfort her, "Grandpa, I didn't lie to you! I can really protect you and the Pingdong Hou Mansion! Moreover, I will definitely listen to you in the future.
Whatever you ask me to do, I will do it!"
General Xie laughed angrily and glared at Xie Yao angrily, "You will do whatever I say?"
Being so angry, my tears stopped.
Xie Yao retracted her hand and said, "I'll try my best."
General Xie didn't expect Xie Yao to really be able to do it. If he did, he wouldn't be Xie Yao.
"I want you to continue squeezing my shoulders now." He ordered with a smile.
"Yes, granddaughter obeys the order." Xie Yao immediately stood up and entered the shoulder-squeezing state.
I was feeling a little heavy at first, but now I feel much relieved after talking and chatting with my grandfather for a long time.
After the grandfather and grandson got along harmoniously for a while, General Xie sent Xie Yao away.
"Even if you ask yourself to come down, you must stay in Prince Han's Mansion before you come down! When you come down, you can only stay in Pingdong Hou Mansion, so there is no need to rush back now."
General Xie directly expelled people for good reasons.
Seeing that her grandfather's energy and energy were fine, Xie Yao was relieved and said, "I'll leave now. Grandpa, take care of yourself. If there are any problems, send someone to see me at Prince Han's Mansion immediately."
"I know, let's go quickly." Old General Xie was a little impatient, but there was a smile in his eyes.
Xie Yao thought her grandfather wanted to rest, so she said goodbye and left.
When Xie Yao's figure disappeared from sight, the smile in the corners of General Xie's eyes instantly disappeared, replaced by a heavy look.
Mo Li had rarely seen the old general so relaxed and happy recently, and he was also happy in his heart. When he turned around, he happened to see the old general's heavy expression, and his heart sank, "Old general, are you still worried about the princess's resignation?
?”
The old general had clearly looked away just now. Could it be that he was deliberately pretending to show it to the princess?
Old General Xie's old eyes were suddenly as deep as the sea, "Mo Li, you said that I protected Yao'er before, and now Yao'er protects me in turn, is this a good thing?"
Li Qiye was a little confused when he was asked, "Of course it's a good thing! In this way, the old general doesn't have to work so hard and can enjoy his old age in peace."
"Enjoy your old age in peace?" General Xie frowned and thought about these four words, and did not continue the topic. "You go down, I am tired and need to rest for a while."
"Yes." Seeing that the old general looked tired, Mo Li bowed and left.
…
Outside the gate of Pingdonghou Mansion.
Xie Yao stepped out and felt that the sun outside was particularly warm.
My grandfather had already agreed to the matter of asking me to resign. One of the most difficult parts of the whole matter had been solved, and the rest was relatively easy.
"What makes the princess happy?" Ziqing asked, feeling very happy in her heart.
The princess has been depressed recently, and it is rare to see her smile.
"I'm naturally happy that the matter has been resolved." Xie Yao replied without going into details.
Ziqing didn't understand, "What happened?"
"The princess is talking about the matter of self-resignation." Wu Peiya helped to explain, "The princess attaches great importance to General Xie's attitude, so although she has already mentioned the matter of self-resignation to the prince, she still has to talk to General Xie
Explain it well. As a result, General Xie accepted it quickly and was not angry. The princess was naturally happy."
Zi Qing understood, "So that's it."
In fact, Wu Peiya already understood it when she first opened her mouth. General Xie was so kind to the princess. She was so touched by the patronage that she forgot to think about other things.
Xie Yao smiled slightly and was about to get on the carriage when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the corner. It was Cheng Yongjun, the general of the Western Conquest.
She thought for a while, turned around and walked over, "General Cheng, didn't you go back to the military camp? Why are you here?"
"The general has met Princess Han." Cheng Yongjun saluted, and then glanced in the direction of the palace gate, "When I saw him yesterday, the general missed the old general even more, so he thought of taking the opportunity to come to Beijing and stand here for a while.
I didn’t expect that Princess Han would see me.”
Xie Yao knew that his grandfather did not allow his subordinates to visit him, so Cheng Yongjun had no choice but to stand here.
Nodding slightly, she noticed that Cheng Yongjun's eyes were unusually red and swollen, and asked, "Have you applied the medicine I gave General Cheng?"
