study.

An old man with white hair and a youthful face and a boy of about sixteen or seventeen are playing chess.

On the chess game, the two of them went back and forth. Although the boy was young, he was not inferior to the old man in momentum.

However, after a while, the young man gradually began to lose the upper hand, and after a few moves, he was completely killed by the old man.

The young man lost the game, but he was not impatient or unconvinced. He stood up, bowed and said, "Grandson admits defeat."

The old man smiled when he heard this, picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea, then sighed: "Back then, when my grandfather was as old as you, Your Majesty..."

Suddenly, his voice stopped.

The boy looked up and saw his grandfather had a lost expression, and he sighed quietly.

He knew what his grandfather was thinking.

My grandfather's life was closely related to the Holy Saint, with all its ups and downs.

Now my grandfather has been favored and returned to the court, but the other people in the Ji family are dispensable in the court.

My grandfather wanted to train me, but due to some unspeakable reasons, I might not have that opportunity.

"Old Master."

The steward came in hurriedly.

The old man suddenly came back to his senses, waved his hand and asked the boy to sit down, then asked: "What's wrong?"

The steward glanced at the young man and lowered his head again.

"Grandfather, your grandson will step back first."

As the young man stood up, he saw the old man shaking his head: "You are not young anymore. There is no need to hide some things from you. It is better to listen to them together."

The boy sat down again.

After hearing what the old man said, the steward bowed to the young man, then looked at the old man: "Old Master, Ji Zhong has replied... Miss... Miss said she is willing to return to Beijing after the New Year."

"Miss?"

The young man was completely confused and surprised and blurted out: "What Miss?"

The old man waved to the steward, who immediately stepped aside. He then said, "Zi Xian, she is your twin sister."

Ji Zixuan had lived for seventeen years, and this was the first time he heard that he had a twin sister.

He actually has a twin sister? !

"It's a long story, Grandfather will tell you slowly later."

The old man was unwilling to continue, "When she comes back, you will know. Zixian, you must treat your sister well when she comes back."

"Please rest assured, grandpa, I understand."

He actually has a sister!

……

After Ji Zixuan left the study, the steward continued, "Old Master, Ji Zhong went there himself, but... he still failed."

They have spies around Ji Zhong, and Kyoto knows everything about Ji Zhong's actions.

It’s no wonder they are worried about Ji Zhong. After he is re-employed by the emperor, everyone has to be cautious and careful about everything.

"She is indeed a capable person."

The old man sighed slightly when he heard this, and he did not mean to blame Ji Zhong: "It's just that between her and Zixuan..."

"Old Master, maybe everything will turn around."

Transfer?

Unless what happened back then can be investigated clearly, the deposed prince can be cleared of all charges.

However, as for those twenty-odd lives...the deposed crown prince may not appreciate the emperor's kindness.

The character of the deposed prince...

Hey!

The old man sighed again, then shook his head and said, "It's time for them to leave. Let's get Fang Caoxuan out and let her live with us."

"Yes!"

After the steward left, he quickly trotted back in, called out "Old Master", and immediately ran to the old man and whispered a few words in his ear.

The old man was stunned. You know... they didn't have much friendship.

"See you?"

The old man thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Please invite him to my study."
