The child slowly walked to the window and looked at Qi Jingsheng’s innocent smile.
Complicated emotions flashed across her black and lively eyes.
“What’s the use of worshiping her every day? A person has already been indirectly killed by you. Will she be better off after going to the netherworld than when she was alive?”
Although Gu Nuo’er’s voice was soft, there was no lack of reproach and sternness.
The small fire stood there with a clear and cold figure, exuding her own might.
Luzhu was filled with regret and knelt on the ground, crying bitterly.
“Luzhu, remember this, nothing is better than living. If you only compensate a person after they die, this isn’t compensation. This is called hypocrisy.”
She turned around and lowered her thick and long eyelashes. Her porcelain-white face was covered in a layer of darkness.
“How ridiculous. You’re spending your remaining life with your grandson to enjoy his life, but I’ve already lost my imperial grandmother when I was born. My father had to bear the sadness of being ‘abandoned’ by his mother when he was young, but this turned out to be fake.
“When you were teaching your grandson to read and write, did you think that the reason why you could read and learn like a young lady from a wealthy family was because of my imperial grandmother’s benevolence and kindness?
“She trusted and treated the two of you like biological sisters. One of you betrayed her and the other didn’t say anything when she saw that she was framed. Luzhu, you and Luying are really good sisters.”
Luzhu couldn’t hold it in anymore and completely broke down from Gu Nuo’er’s words.
“This old servant is willing to apologize with my death and go down personally to beg for Her Majesty’s forgiveness.”
The child stared at her. “There’s no need for that. It’s rare for my imperial grandmother to have peace. People like you should stay away from her.”
Gu Nuo’er looked at Qi Jingsheng outside the window again. “Luzhu, you’ve been hiding from this matter for so many years. It’s time to reveal the truth back then.”
Luzhu’s entire body trembled. “But Your Highness, what happened back then was too long ago. The evidence has probably been destroyed long ago.”
“There’s no need to worry,” Gu Nuo’er said firmly. “As long as I’m around and you’re willing to testify, we’ll definitely be able to find out the truth and clear my imperial grandmother’s name.”
The child suddenly turned around, her skirt drawing a beautiful arc.
In this dim room, her eyes were bright and she looked quite divine.
“Nanny Luzhu, you won’t be able to hide this time. It’s time do justice to my imperial grandmother after close to 20 years of delay.”
Luzhu closed her eyes and tears flowed down her cheeks. She kowtowed heavily and said firmly, “Yes, this old servant understands.”
When the door opened again, Gu Nuo’er walked out.
Luzhu had already wiped her tears and followed behind her, staggering out of the door.
“Grandmother, the older brothers gave me another book just now!” When Qi Jingsheng heard the sound, he happily raised the book in his hand.
Luzhu looked a little guilty. She quickly said, “Hurry up and thank the young masters and young ladies.”
Qi Jingsheng thanked them one by one.
Gu Nuo’er smiled softly. “Grandma, entrust Brother Jingsheng to a trusted family for the time being. Come back to the city with me.”
Qi Jingsheng was stunned and asked in confusion, “Grandmother is going to the city with Elder Sister? Can’t A’Sheng go?”
Although Luzhu looked reluctant, she stroked Qi Jingsheng’s head and explained, “Grandmother is going to the city to make sweet pancakes for this young lady’s family. Go to Uncle Sang’s house and wait for Grandmother. I’ll be back in a few days.”
Qi Jingsheng immediately nodded obediently. “Alright! I’ll definitely be obedient. Grandmother, don’t worry and go. Make more delicious sweet pancakes for older sister’s family.. Older sister is a good person, so her family
must be too!”
