"Ruanruan, it's okay. He is your grandfather and won't hurt you." Xiao Qinmo leaned over and paused, not knowing how to comfort the child. Then he raised his hand and patted her shoulder as if he was comforting his son, but he used less force.
"Call...call me Ruanruan, right? Come here." Xiao Dinghan waved at her.
Ruanruan hid behind Xiao Qinmo, glanced at Xiao Dinghan and shook her head.
"Father, I'm afraid Ruanruan isn't used to it yet when they meet for the first time. Please don't scare her. Let's go in first." Xiao Qinmo coughed lightly and spoke.
Xiao Dinghan stared at Ruanruan, turned around with his hands behind his back, and walked into the palace.
Everyone else followed in.
Xiao Qinmo and others entered the study of Prince Xiao's mansion. Prince Xiao glanced at Ruanruan who was hiding behind Xiao Qinmo and pursed his lips.
"What's going on?"
"Shun'an, didn't you follow your father on tour for His Majesty? Why did you run back to Bian Jing?" Xiao Dinghan looked at Xiao Shun'an beside Xiao Qinmo and asked with a frown.
Xiao Shunan said, "Grandfather, there's a plague in Jingzhou. Even His Royal Highness Prince Qing has been infected. We heard that medicine to treat the plague has appeared in Youzhou, so my father and I went to Youzhou. The Youzhou prefect said that their medicine comes from Qingzhou."
"My father and I went to Qingzhou again, and there we learned that there was a young miracle doctor in Qingzhou. He had superb medical skills and cured the plague in Qingzhou."
"That person is Ruanruan. She is a miraculous doctor respected by the people of Qingzhou. After seeing Ruanruan, my father suspected that she was my aunt's daughter. He planned to take Ruanruan back to Bianjing to recognize her as his relative and help my aunt with her treatment."
Hearing this, Xiao Dinghan took a breath, his broad chest rising and falling. "Alright, now the evidence is irrefutable. I want to see how Prince Jin denies it!"
"Now the truth is before our eyes, and you actually helped the Emperor take Mu'er to the palace. I will go to the palace right now and bring Mu'er back."
"No, grandfather, you misunderstood. My father and I thought so at first, but later we found out that Ruanruan was not the daughter of Prince Jin at all. Ruanruan came from another world." Xiao Shunan hurriedly stepped forward to stop Xiao Dinghan and said.
"My aunt disappeared six years ago. We searched for her for many years but couldn't find her. In fact, she went to another world and couldn't come back from there. She met my uncle and gave birth to Ruanruan."
"Shun'an, what nonsense are you talking about? I think you have been deceived by King Jin and even believe this kind of nonsense!" Xiao Dinghan has always relied on his own fists to start from scratch in his life, and he has never believed in ghosts and gods.
"Hurry up and bring your aunt back, otherwise you will never enter the gate of my Prince Xiao's Mansion again. Just treat it as if I, Xiao Dinghan, don't have you as my son and grandson."
What kind of creatures does he have?
"Your Majesty, the King of Jin casually promised you some power and a few official positions, and you guys just handed your sister over like that."
"It's a pity that I used to pretend to love Mu'er so much."
"Do you still have a heart?"
Xiao Dinghan took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "Shun'an, tell me yourself, how good was your aunt to you back then? How are you treating your aunt now?"
"Grandfather, everything I said is true." Xiao Shunan twitched his lips. For the first time, he realized that his grandfather was even more stubborn than his father and there was no way he could convince him.
Ruanruan watched them quarreling, and it seemed that it was because the fierce grandfather did not believe what her second brother said.
"Hey... If grandpa doesn't believe it, then let's bring the vase over. It just so happens that when Ruanruan came out just now, she asked her little brother to bring the vase with him. The vase is in the carriage." Ruanruan raised a little hand and said.
"Okay, I'll get it right away." Xiao Shunan turned around and walked out quickly.
"You said your mother is Mu'er, then what's your father's name?" Perhaps because the child looks like Mu'er and is very likely Mu'er's daughter, Xiao Dinghan couldn't help but soften his heart when he saw her.
"My father's name is Ruan Qichuan." Ruanruan looked at Xiao Dinghan with eager eyes and responded honestly and obediently.
Xiao Dinghan was thinking of Ruan Qichuan's name in his heart. There seemed to be a family with the surname Ruan in the noble family of Bian Jing, but that person's family had only one daughter and there was no man of the right age to marry his daughter.
"I'm here, I brought the things." Xiao Shunan walked in holding a vase and placed it in front of Ruanruan.
"What are you doing with this thing? What's it used for?" Xiao Dinghan glanced at the vase on the ground and said.
"Grandfather, you will know soon." Xiao Shunan looked at Ruanruan and Zhao Chengqian.
Xiao Dinghan sat down on a chair nearby and said, "Why are you keeping me in suspense, kid? Hurry up."
He wanted to see what tricks this kid could come up with.
Ruanruan and Zhao Chengqian nodded at him, walked to the vase, placed their hands on it, muttered a few words, and the vase emitted a golden light.
The two children disappeared before him.
Seeing this, Xiao Dinghan suddenly stood up and walked over to look at the vase carefully. The two children who had just stood in front of him disappeared out of thin air in an instant, without even a trace.
"Where are the children? Where did those two children go?" He held Xiao Shunan's shoulders and asked anxiously.
"They went over there." Xiao Shunan responded.
As the two were talking, Ruanruan and Zhao Chengqian suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Dinghan.
"You believe it now, right?" Ruanruan looked up at Xiao Dinghan and said.
The current situation does not allow Xiao Dinghan to disbelieve it.
"So...what Shunan said is true?" Xiao Dinghan looked at Ruanruan closely and said.
"Well, if you still don't believe it, Ruanruan can take you there to take a look, and then you will know."
Ruanruan didn't wait for Xiao Dinghan to speak, and took Zhao Chengqian's hand, "Let's take grandpa over there."
The two children just touched the vase and said, "Pingping, take grandpa with you."
The vase glowed with golden light again, and Xiao Dinghan disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Before Xiao Dinghan could react, the environment around him had completely changed. He was dazzled by the sunlight coming in from the window. He squinted his eyes and looked sideways at the bright room that was all white, feeling puzzled.
"Dad, Grandpa, I brought grandpa here." A soft voice sounded in his ears.
Xiao Dinghan looked over and saw a large bed beside him. A young man was sitting on the bed, and an old man was standing next to the man. "Who are you?"
He glanced towards the bed and saw a person lying on it. That person was his daughter Xiao Qingmu.
"Mu'er?" Xiao Dinghan walked quickly to the bedside.
"This is my father and my grandfather." Ruanruan introduced them while standing by the bed.
"So it was you, kid, who bullied my daughter." Xiao Dinghan grabbed Ruan Qichuan's collar and was about to attack.
"Let my dad go!" Ruanruan pounced on Xiao Dinghan and pulled his clothes hard.
