But now, looking at her face, which was as beautiful as her mother’s, he was afraid that he would invite disaster.
“Yingxue, tell grandpa honestly. When did you become acquainted with Ninth Prince?” Su Qingzhi’s face was very kind, but there was a look of scrutiny in his eyes.
This scrutinizing gaze was like a sword and lightning, causing Su Yingxue to be unable to move.
She lowered her eyes. “When Your Highness came to visit me, he gave me a few stalks of Lingzhi.”
“Do you know who Your Highness is?” Su Qingzhi said lightly as he walked.
“Your Highness is the God of War of the Great Cheng Dynasty. He is extremely noble.” Su Yingxue replied.
However, she had a feeling that this was not the answer Grandpa wanted to hear.
“Other than identity, do you know the blood feud of Your Highness? The Imperial Consort died in vain, and his elder brother has been missing for many years. How could he use his own body to shake the current court and make the emperor unable to sleep and eat for so many years?” Su Qingzhi asked.
Su Yingxue nodded silently. “I know all of this. The Imperial Consort’s death was caused by the emperor. The young Eighth Prince’s disappearance is probably related to the emperor.”
Su Qingzhi’s heart sank. “You knew about it!”
Su Yingxue’s eyebrows twitched. Grandpa was testing her!
He had seen through her relationship with Chu Yihan, which was why he had asked her.
Su Yingxue’s heart was beating wildly, but she maintained a calm expression. “So what if I know? Grandpa, is this a secret?”
Su Qingzhi’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter. “Other than me, even your eldest uncle and father would not know about these things, but you know everything! How close are you to Ninth Prince?”
That was why he had exposed all his scars for her to see!
For a man who had been through hundreds of battles, the only people who could make him reveal his fragility and tenderness were the people who were extremely important to him.
Could it be that his granddaughter and Chu Yihan had already…
“Grandpa!” Su Yingxue’s sweet voice broke Su Qingzhi’s train of thought. “Didn’t I tell you before? The Silver Moon Pavilion came to rob my mother’s handwritten letter. I’ve fought with the Silver Moon Pavilion and even snatched their number-one assassin from the Silver Moon Steward. It’s not difficult for me to understand some secrets of the court. Why do I need Ninth Prince to tell me personally?”
Su Qingzhi was stunned for a moment before asking her, “Is that so?”
“Of course. Grandpa, are you suspecting Ninth Prince?” Su Yingxue’s eyes were innocent. “Ninth Prince saved me previously because of Grandfather. Now, he’s helping his cousin because of the Marquis’s Manor. Outsiders might think that Your Highness is biased, but Grandpa, don’t you know who’s right and who’s wrong? Your Highness is helping justice and fairness!”
Su Yingxue’s words made Su Qingzhi unable to find any flaws.
Chu Yihan knew his temper. He also knew that Su Dingheng was a good-for-nothing in the current Marquis’s Manor. Su Hao was far away in Bamboo Leaf Pass. If he wanted to do something, the Su family could not help him. The only thing that could benefit him was Su Yingxue inheriting Long Shuli’s heaven-defying medical skills.
“Grandpa, you’ve also thought of it. Your Highness helping our Marquis’s Manor won’t bring him any benefits on the surface, but Your Highness is also an ordinary person. I’ve also treated his old injuries before. Your Highness helping us is also helping himself.” Su Yingxue explained the matter more clearly.
“I see.” Su Qingzhi stroked his beard. Su Yingxue’s words could make people understand.
After all, even Chu Mingyuan respected Long Shuli.
Su Qingzhi’s suspicion dissipated a little, but he couldn’t help but remind Su Yingxue earnestly, “Yingxue, Grandpa isn’t slandering Ninth Prince this time. Grandpa respects heroes and values heroes, but every hero faces countless dangers..”
