She is trying to accept this fact.
Constantly digesting the current information.
"Lotus... I don't understand your intention."
"The fact that the head of the family has defected proves that he thinks Northern Qi is more suitable for him. Few members of the Gu family objected to the move of the whole family to the capital, which proves that they also think that the war between the Southern Kingdom and Northern Qi is useless and superfluous."
"A century of hardship made them willing to stay away from the flames of war..."
"Lotus, what is your purpose, your intention, or rather, your stance in coming to me now?"
Lotus took a deep breath and solemnly said:

Gu Jiangli lowered his head and smiled self-deprecatingly, "Lotus, all these years, whose people have been looking for me?"
"Hmm?" Lotus was a little puzzled as to why Gu Jiangli suddenly brought up this question.
"Didn't you say that my grandfather and my father didn't have the same ideas? Then who has been sending people to find me all these years?"
The lotus flowers bowed their heads even lower.
"Miss, the person who ordered the search for you is the head of the family."
"The person who sent people to find you... is your father."
