Mad Queen

Chapter 31 I also have the right to kill you
Lu Chi glanced over the crowd, and laughed sinisterly.

"I know that some of you are just skinny and need to clean up, that's why you made me a moth!! The old general and the young general are not here now, so let me tell you, don't make trouble, make trouble I, Lu Chi, have the same right to kill you!!"

Gu Ziwan stared at the surroundings, carefully observing the prisoners.

They generally have sallow and muscular faces, with bad yin and yang, and several children are almost as thin as skeletons.

Lu Chi was half threatening, half yelling angrily, and then he called his subordinates to take everyone back.

On the way back to send Hua Linlang back, Gu Niancheng whispered, "Linlang, do you see that old man with a stooped body? He is Guo Jintian, the old national teacher. If you have any difficulties, you can consult with him..."

"Old teacher?? Is Queen Guo's father??" Hua Linlang was taken aback.

Six years ago, Empress Guo died of illness. Guo Jintian had always suspected that her daughter's death was caused by witchcraft, and had a few times quarreled with the emperor.

The emperor was furious and exiled him here.

"The emperor once wanted to pick him up, but he refused. I thought he was dead, but I didn't expect him to be alive. It's just... he's too old! He's wise, if you can, please ask him to teach Wan'er Read and write!"

Gu Niancheng put down Gu Ziwan, and told her to go into the house to pick up the burden for himself.

"Lin Lang, the guards change shifts every three days. I have to come back every three days. You are alone...be careful!!"

"I will!! I know how to do it!"

Holding back tears, Hua Linlang bid farewell to her husband with a gentle smile, and took her daughter far away until Gu Niancheng's figure disappeared.

The mother and daughter stood for a long time before walking back in silence.

Gu Ziwan could feel her mother's sadness and loss, since they got married, they have never been separated.

Now that her father is gone, the burden of the family falls on her shoulders.

Hua Linlang was born as a daughter of a thousand pieces of gold. She was ignorant of worldly affairs and didn't care about oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar. Now that she was suddenly asked to shoulder heavy responsibilities by herself, the pressure can be imagined.

"Mother..." Gu Ziwan tugged on her mother's sleeve and pointed towards the door.

There, Guo Jintian and several people were standing in front of their house.

Hua Linlang was stunned for a moment, and quickly stepped forward to salute: "Hua Linlang has seen the old master!"

"Madam Gu, you are so polite, please! I heard that a new prisoner has arrived. We have always wanted to come and pay a visit, but it was delayed until today... Your father, are you going to Huashan?"

Hua Linlang hesitated for a moment, but still bowed her head slowly, as a tacit consent.

Guo Jintian shook his head with a half-smile: "The Hua family mainly knows that you are here, so I don't know how it will feel!"

Gu Ziwan felt her mother's body visibly trembling, and she couldn't help but look up curiously.

There were tears in Hua Linlang's eyes.

Huashan trip? ?Grandpa? ?

But this name is so strange!
In her previous life, she never heard her mother mention her grandfather, even when their family was displaced, she never saw her mother mention this name. Where did it come out now? ?
She always thought that her grandfather's family had passed away a long time ago, but she didn't expect that they still existed.

"Old teacher, everyone, please come inside..."

Hua Linlang smiled calmly with downcast eyes, took the opportunity to wipe away the tears in her eyes, and pushed the door open.

"I don't have any good things here, and there are pancakes in the morning, let's try it together..."

"Pancakes??!" Guo Jintian's eyes showed a strange color.
