Seeing that they stopped asking, Qin Qiong asked softly: "Uncle, that, that Lord Pei, is he the one who wanted to harm grandma?"

Now think about it, if you put many things together, you can figure it out.

Yang San, the prince, wanted to enter the capital without a decree, so he couldn't let anyone know. He ran away on his own, so his subordinates certainly didn't want others to know his whereabouts. The people behind him could only help him clean up.

The third cousin discovered that there was someone in the cargo, and my grandmother followed him and may have seen or heard something, so she was silenced, but the old lady did not die.

Originally, the Ji family was just a used "weapon", unimportant, so they dared to force the third cousin to kill the grandmother. But later, this man was actually found by the second uncle, and seeing the specialness of his identity, he invited him home.

In this way, the Ji family got on board a big ship.

"Ah, this, this... There are many things involved, it's hard to say now, please don't say anything."

The uncle was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand to tell Qin Qiong not to ask any more questions.

"But now that person has arrived at the mansion, grandma, what should I do?"

Qin Qiong continued to ask, there was nothing he could do, he couldn't stand the little Loli's freezing ray!

"They were the ones who injured grandma, weren't they? So what should we do now? Why are we still letting them have dinner? Shouldn't we kick them out?"

The adults in the room were all embarrassed for a moment!

"This...is not it. Alas! Xiaojing, it's not as simple as you think." The eldest young master Ji Yongzhen broke the awkwardness first.

After all, they are still young people! Qin Qiong couldn't help but sigh.

"why?"

"Although he was the one who hurt my grandmother, they are officials from Beijing."

The eldest young master said to Qin Qiong in a serious tone: "And this involves very big things, and it is more related to our Ji family, do you understand?"

"Then, you won't avenge grandma? Now does grandma want to... die?" Qin Qiong said in a low voice.

"This..." The young master was stunned for a moment and turned to look at his father.

"Of course not. I think your grandmother is no longer in danger. So, Xiaojing, don't say anything nonsense to that Third Young Master Yang, okay?" The eldest master took over.

"I was just about to tell you that Mr. Yang will be staying at our house for the next few days. He may even go to the capital with you. Don't worry, your father can't come to pick you up this month anyway, as he is still stuck there. We were thinking of sending you to the capital as soon as your grandmother is fine."

"But……"

The master raised his hand to signal Qin Qiong to listen to him.

"We just happened to be going the same way. However, you should still be more courteous and respectful to Mr. Yang San."

At this point, the eldest master took a step forward and whispered to Qin Qiong, "You should have seen that his status is noble, so we must keep it a secret. We must not let anyone know that he is going to Beijing. Our family must do our best to protect his safety. This is related to the future of our Ji family. Do you understand?"

"Can......"

"In short, we cannot afford to offend this person. We must not only protect him, but also treat him with respect, honor him, and curry favor with him. Do you understand?"

The eldest young master took over and spoke with a bitter look on his face.

"......Understood".

It was already late when Qin Qiong returned to his room.

Of course the old lady didn't have to "break down", but each courtyard was sealed off, and the young masters and young ladies were not allowed to move around freely and had to stay in their own courtyards.

Qin Qiong waited until the lights were on but his maid Ling'er still didn't come back. The maid who came to wait on him said that the person who delivered food to the warehouse had not come back yet and might not come back until tomorrow.

After talking with her uncles, the little girl has been unhappy. Qin Qiong knows it clearly without even looking at her face, because she is so cold!

As the night was getting late, Qin Qiong walked out of the house. She couldn't leave the yard, so she stood in the porch and looked up at the crescent moon in the sky.

After a while, when the little Lolita calmed down, she walked down the corridor and walked towards the small rockery in the yard, where there was a stone table and three stone benches.

Qin Qiong sat down and leaned against the stone table, propped his chin with his hand and asked: "Are you still angry?"

She didn't even look at the little Loli next to her, but raised her head to look at the moon.

The little girl ignored her and looked at the horizon like her. Qin Qiong wanted to laugh, but the sensory organs of her body were obviously not completely under her control.

There was no other way, she had to persuade this little ancestor, otherwise she would not be able to sleep tonight.

"You have to understand that adults have their own world, society is very complicated, and nothing is as clear as you think. Many deep-seated things are not as simple as you think. You are still young now, and you will understand when you grow up."

The little girl pouted.

"It's not that your uncles don't want to avenge your grandmother, nor is it that they are servile and accept the enemy as their father. In fact, they are doing this to save your grandmother. Although these people hurt her, this...how to say it...in short, your two uncles are saving her now."

The little girl rolled her eyes at him.

"You have seen those people, from the government and the royal palace. Your Ji family is just a merchant. We are not even on the same level. There is no comparison at all."

Qin Qiong had no choice but to slowly reason with her.

"Your society is so divided into classes. Not to mention the Ji family, even your father is a scumbag in other people's eyes. You can't let your uncle risk the lives of the whole family just because your grandmother was beaten up. Moreover, he won't be able to win. It's absolutely like hitting a rock with an egg."

"......I know." The little Loli turned her head to the other side.

"Then why are you still angry?"

"It's just... it's so sad. Was it just a beating? If you hadn't discovered the wound, grandma might have... but now, the person who beat grandma has become a distinguished guest in our house, and we can't even ask about it?"

The little girl said with a pout.

"You are being too serious when you say that. You are not angry about how you became like this. You have already...your grandmother is fine, but you still have such a bad temper." Qin Qiong was a little at a loss for words.

"It's different! I know they gave me the medicine for my own good, because they were afraid that something might happen to me. I didn't drink it because... who told them not to listen to me... I have always been in poor health and have to take medicine all the time. So, they didn't dare to let me go alone..."

The little girl lowered her head.

"Besides, they were afraid. They were afraid of their father. They were afraid that he would think they were mean to me. They were afraid that when he came back and found out that something happened to me, he would think... So, when they heard that you forgave them, they were so happy. Because they knew they had done something wrong."

The little Loli turned her head away angrily and said.

"Ah!...What about you?" It was the first time that Qin Qiong told the little girl what happened that day.

"Second Mother and the others are not bad people. They have never hurt me before. That day... I never dared to open my eyes afterwards. I know everything you said and did afterwards. You also told me. Actually, when I think about it, I was also wrong..."

Then the little girl said a little disappointedly: "Teacher said to correct the mistakes, good..."

"There is no greater kindness than this." Qin Qiong looked at her and wanted to laugh.

"Yes, but, look, they have no intention of changing their ways, let alone apologizing. Our family, our family should be grateful and thank them for not killing us. This, this really makes people... I am really sad, for grandma and for the Ji family."

"This..." Qin Qiong wanted to persuade her, but he didn't know what to say to the little Loli.

Should we tell her that in the eyes of the powerful, families like theirs are just fish that can be cooked and killed, and that this is an inherent form of the feudal system?

Moreover, not to mention this era, even in the 21st century, there will still be such situations that put pressure on people.

Everything in this world must bow to the general trend.

She turned her head and looked at the little Loli. The little girl under the moon was really beautiful.
