Even after the figure disappeared, Xue Jiang remained standing there, stunned.
Deep in his memory, he saw the image of a young tiger descending the mountain, following behind him and calling him "senior brother," clamoring for him to take him out to play.
But now, the boy has grown up and won't follow him anymore!
In fact, the two of them stood on opposite sides.
Xue Jiang knew the current state of the government and the court, but he always felt that as long as the royal family and the emperor were still alive, as long as capable and honest officials were in office, there would be room for maneuver and the people could live in peace and happiness.
