Chapter 165: Everything in the World Is Unsatisfactory



The man raised his eyes and his gaze fell on Qiao Yege, then he put away the account book in his hand and hid the shock in his eyes.

This man was obviously used to hiding his emotions, and his moods were unpredictable and calm.

However, when the man's eyes fell on Qiao Yuge's face, he was distracted for a moment.

The man walked over, circled around Qiao Yuge, and said to Feng Shuang: "When did you fall in love? Why did you bring her here now?"

Feng Shuang lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and then couldn't help but say: "Master, Miss Qiao... has been favored by His Highness..."

"Tsk..." The man sighed helplessly and said to Feng Shuang, "So this is one of the reasons why you didn't bring her here."

Then the man said to Qiao Yuge, "Qiao girl, are you okay with these?"

Qiao Yege's eyes turned red.

Although she was a time traveler, she knew how much her original self had experienced and how she had gotten here.

The man was in his fifties and had an ordinary look, but he seemed kind.

Seeing Qiao Yege's eyes turn red, the man obviously knew the result.

Then the man said to Qiao Yuge, "Qiao girl, I have been looking for you for a long time before, but your second aunt said she didn't know where you were. Although we hope to find you and give you a good life, we couldn't protect ourselves at that time. We made too many enemies when we were young, and after the prince died, we scattered like monkeys when the tree fell. In order to protect ourselves, we moved around everywhere, and now we don't know where we are."

Qiao Yege didn't say anything.

The man then said, "I am number three. This was my number when I was working for the prince. Feng Shuang said that the prince has taken a fancy to you. Is this true or false?"

Although Qiao Yuge felt kindred after seeing this man, she was still trying to analyze the situation calmly.

She lowered her head, pretending to be weak and said, "That's right, I came here for this reason too."

He opened his mouth, as if thinking about how to explain this situation.

He said to Qiao Yuge, "How is your relationship with His Highness now? What do you want to know?"

"I want to know, my father died when he was young. Was it because a traitor framed him and left him isolated and helpless, or was it because the late emperor was very jealous of my father and had already had some grudge against him in his heart?"

Feng Shuang, who was standing nearby, took a breath after hearing these words, as if she had not expected Qiao Yege to be so direct.

But this kind of directness did not seem subtle, which was not to Feng Shuang's taste.

San gritted his teeth and said to Qiao Yuge, "Qiao girl, if you have already planned to be with His Highness, what do these things matter? What matters is whether you like His Highness. Besides, I heard that His Highness wants to make you the queen. Isn't this enough?"

"That's enough, but I am a human being. I have dignity. If my father really died unjustly, can I still feel at ease to be with the son of my enemy?"

Qiao Yege asked in a cold voice.

San immediately said, "Qiao girl, the late emperor is the late emperor, and Your Highness is Your Highness. Your Highness needs to be calmer, smarter and wiser, otherwise we will not do anything for Your Highness."

Qiao Yege took a breath and tried to adjust his emotions, but he didn't know how to describe his mood.

Just because Xiao Yun is a good person, does that mean I can accept him?

Qiao Yuge raised his eyes and said to San, "Uncle San, do you really think I should be with His Highness? If I really did this, what would my mother think?"

Uncle San lowered his head and thought for a while, then said to Qiao Yuge, "At that time, it was just because the prince's ability was too outstanding. First of all, he had countless elite soldiers and a secret guard. He was also a handsome and loyal person. He was also very good to his wife. His reputation spread far and wide. He was truly an impeccable person. It was normal for the late emperor to dislike the prince for such a person."

After hearing what his uncle said, Qiao Yuge stared at him and said, "I'm just asking you, was it because the late emperor was jealous of my father that he resolutely gave up supporting my father after being instigated by the traitor, causing my father not to come back alive in the end?"

Qiao Yege asked this question word by word.

Uncle San obviously thought that Qiao Yege didn't need to be so serious right now.

He said to Qiao Yege, "You came here today just to ask this question, right?"

Qiao Yege nodded firmly.

Uncle San gave Feng Shuang a look, indicating that Feng Shuang should go first.

Then the third uncle said to Qiao Yege, "Qiao girl, I don't know how you got here, but you have to know that the world belongs to the Xiao family. You have no control over what the Xiao family does. You can only do what you can to ensure your survival. If you can help boost the Qiao family's reputation, it would be better. People always have to adapt."

"If you blame Your Highness for the mistakes of the late emperor, this is of course wrong. Think about it carefully. If the prince were still alive, what would he let you do?"

Uncle San said slowly.

Qiao Yuge thought about it carefully, but he had no idea what he should do.

If the late emperor was only instigated by the traitor and therefore did not support Prince Qiao, then at least Qiao Yuge could still forgive the late emperor.

After all, people at that time, sitting in high positions, were always cautious.

This was also the reason why Qiao Yuge hesitated for a while, but was finally moved by Xiao Yun's favor.

But if the current situation was caused by the late emperor's jealousy, how would Qiao Yuge overcome this hurdle in his heart?

Qiao Yege didn't say anything, but his eyes flashed.

The Third Uncle continued, "I have been looking for you before. I hope to give you a good life, but later I heard that you were going to marry His Highness, so I felt relieved. Now that you are here, what do you... want from me?"

Qiao Yege suddenly raised his eyes and looked at his uncle.

Yes. What is she going to do?

What exactly does she want Xiao Yun to do?

Is she hoping for a life for a life, or is she hoping to bring Prince Qiao back to life? Is she hoping to marry Xiao Yun?

She thought about it, frowned, and said to her uncle: "You mean, you don't know what the late emperor was thinking. But it is not ruled out that he is indeed jealous of my mother, right?"

Uncle San stopped talking and thought that Qiao Yege was just being too stubborn.

"There are so many things wrong with this room, let yourself go."

After thinking for a long time, Uncle San finally said this slowly.

Qiao Yege's heart was hurt at this moment.
