Translator: ryuxenji Editor: H2dH2mr Du Shaofu was also taken aback. Looking at the charming and alluring woman beside him, he said to North Vanquishing Prince, "Old mister, please don't joke around. I really can't help you with this."
"What do you mean? Are you looking down on me?"
Hearing Du Shaofu's rejection, Xie Fei's flushed face instantly glared at Du Shaofu. Her red lips pouted slightly. This brat was young, but he still looked down on her. Was she really inferior to those little girls?
"Miss Xie, that's not what I meant. You're noble, beautiful, and have an extraordinary aura. How would I dare look down on you? I'm the one who's not good enough."
Du Shaofu clicked his tongue. He didn't know how he had offended Xie Fei again. However, her coquettish look was actually quite beautiful. If he could marry her, his drunkard father, first uncle, and second uncle would probably be very happy too.
"Du Shaofu, what are you thinking about? How can you think about these things before the whole family reunites?" Du Shaofu scolded himself silently and put away his messy thoughts.
"That's more like it. However, it's not that you're not good enough. It's just that I … won't be with you guys anymore. You guys take your time chatting!"
Xie Fei finally softened her tone towards Du Shaofu. However, she seemed to have thought of something. Her beautiful face froze, and her face flushed red again. Her beautiful figure flashed away.
"Haha, this girl …"
North Vanquishing Prince was all smiles. He seemed to be very happy today. However, he started coughing again.
"Old mister, take it easy."
Du Shaofu immediately supported North Vanquishing Prince. Mimicking Xie Fei, he gently patted North Vanquishing Prince's back, hoping to ease his coughing.
"Don't call me old mister. Your father Du Tingxuan and this old man have met a few times before. He also called me Uncle Xie. You can call me grandpa from now on. You won't lose out." North Vanquishing Prince looked at Du Shaofu, his dark and wrinkled face full of kindness.
"Thank you, Grandfather."
Du Shaofu said softly. Since his drunkard father had called him uncle, it was indeed not a loss for him to call him grandfather.
"Good, good, good!"
Then he looked at Du Shaofu and said seriously, "Good boy, you actually called me grandpa. Then remember, from now on, you are half a member of the Xie family, half a grandson of this old man. In the imperial capital, you just don't bully others. But if someone bullies you, you don't have to be afraid. You have the whole Xie family behind you, so you don't have to give face to anyone."
Looking at the skinny old man beside him, Du Shaofu felt warmth in his heart. He nodded slightly and didn't say anything.
Du Shaofu helped North Vanquishing Prince to sit on the rattan chair. Then he chatted with North Vanquishing Prince about everything under the sun, just like a real grandfather and grandson. Occasionally, there would be laughter from the two of them. A kind grandfather and a filial grandson, it was really enviable.
Du Shaofu finally understood what it meant to have an old man at home was like having a treasure. North Vanquishing Prince knew a lot about astronomy, geography, and interesting stories. As they chatted, Du Shaofu gained a lot of knowledge.
Unknowingly, the old man and the young man chatted until the evening. When the sky was about to turn dark, Du Shaofu said his goodbyes and left.
The sun was setting, and the silvery gray dew shrouded the bamboo forest. A gentle breeze gently blew the green bamboos, making continuous sounds.
North Vanquishing Prince was gently lying on the rattan chair.
Xie Fei gently walked over. Her aura was like an orchid, revealing her charm. Then she quietly stood in front of the rattan chair.
"Little girl Fei 'er, have you sent that little guy away?"
North Vanquishing Prince slowly straightened his body. On his skinny and tanned face, his eyes were bright without any turbidity.
"He should have gone to the palace."
Xie Fei's beautiful eyes slightly looked around. A gentle breeze blew through the bamboo forest, and a few strands of hair casually fluttered around her waist. Her eyes hesitated for a while, before she asked North Vanquishing Prince: "Grandfather, why didn't you tell him about the matter between his father and the Du household?"
"I feel sorry for that little guy. The Du household had already gone overboard seventeen years ago, and this time they are still going overboard. I really don't know what that old man of the Du family is thinking. Does he think that he can pretend that nothing happened just because he is in seclusion?"
North Vanquishing Prince's bright eyes suddenly surged with a fierce glint, as if a dormant beast had suddenly awakened. He said: "Since that little guy called me grandfather, then he is my grandson. That old man of the Du family turned a blind eye, but I am still alive. If the Du household goes overboard again, I will not agree."
"Grandfather, take care of your body."
Xie Fei said softly. Her bright eyes were fluctuating. She had not seen her grandfather so agitated for a long time.
"Phew …"
North Vanquishing Prince's breath eased a little. He turned around to look at Xie Fei, and said: "Little girl Fei 'er, keep an eye on the things outside. As long as he is in the capital, you can't let him be bullied. And the palace, there are some things that he is not clear about. Don't let him be used by others. If necessary, remind him."
"I understand."
Xie Fei nodded, looked at North Vanquishing Prince, and said: "Grandfather, then he will be my little brother from now on?"
"Sigh, if that little guy is my grandson-in-law, it would be great."
North Vanquishing Prince sighed, and said softly: "I don't care about you young people's matters. Little girl, if you don't do it now, then in the future, that little guy will be taken away by those fat little girls. It will be too late for you to regret."
… … …
"That little guy's strength is not bad."
On the street, Zhen Qingchun's voice came into Du Shaofu's ears.
"Little guy …?"
Du Shaofu was surprised, and immediately asked Zhen Qingchun who was in the small pagoda: "Brother Qingchun, how old are you?"
"Anyway, that little guy is just a little guy in front of me."
Zhen Qingchun's voice sounded very proud, and then he said to Du Shaofu: "Pay attention these days, and help me find some elixirs and pills that can help the primordial spirit."
"Okay, no problem." Du Shaofu said.
At dusk, the palace under the curtain of the night was shockingly huge. The red palace walls were so tall that it looked like a giant dragon entrenched in the Dragon City.
Du Shaofu, Du Xiaoqing, Du Xiaoyao, and the Little Tiger arrived in front of the palace. The huge palace gate was spacious, and it was heavily guarded. There was no place to hide, and the palace guards came up to question them from afar.
When Du Shaofu took out the dragon-patterned token given to him by the Second Princess Cheng Yan and said that he was looking for the Second Princess, the eyes of the guards trembled, and the look in their eyes changed. The head guard personally led the way, and very respectfully led Du Shaofu, Du Xiaoqing, and the others into the palace.
Walking into the palace, Du Shaofu sighed. The inside of the palace walls was even more magnificent than the inside of Prince Xie's Mansion. There was a building every five steps, and a pavilion every ten steps. The corridors were winding, and the eaves were high. It was unknown how far it stretched.
The yellow and red glazed eaves outlined a huge winding silhouette in the vast palace. It was magnificent and magnificent.
"What a powerful aura!"
What caused Du Shaofu to be the most amazed was that he could feel a majestic aura crushing down on him the moment he stepped into the palace. It was as if a huge dragon was present in the palace.
"Could this be the legendary Imperial Dragon Aura?"
Du Shaofu thought to himself. Just in the afternoon, he heard some interesting stories from the North Vanquishing Prince, and one of them was the Imperial Dragon Aura. It was said that the Imperial Dragon Aura could only be found in the palace, and it was very powerful.
"The aura inside is not weak." Du Xiaoqing also noticed the aura inside the palace. Although she was a little surprised, she did not pay too much attention to it.
Following the head guard, Du Shaofu did not know how many palaces they had passed. After that, the head guard handed him over to a palace maid who looked to be in her thirties, and they continued to walk into the palace.
Along the way, Du Shaofu only looked around at the golden glazed tiles and the multi-eaves palace roofs. Under the setting sun, it was a splendid scene.
When the last ray of light disappeared, Du Shaofu finally arrived at the entrance of a palace. There was a sentry every three steps, and there was a sentry every five steps. Along the way, there were many palace guards patrolling.
The palace was tall and majestic, with an antique style. It had vermilion pillars, and on a huge and gorgeous horizontal board, there were three words "Guang Moon Palace."
"Sir, this is the Guang Moon Palace, where the First Princess and the Second Princess live. The First Princess has ordered that we are not allowed to enter the Guang Moon Palace at will. Therefore, sir, please go in and find the Second Princess."
After the palace maid finished speaking to Du Shaofu, she still seemed to be a little worried. She specifically told Du Shaofu, "The backyard of the palace is mostly for the women. If you do not have the Golden Dragon Token and are not an ordinary VIP, you will not be able to come here. Sir, please do not wander around. If you are encountered by the patrolling guards, it will cause trouble."
"I know. Thank you for leading the way." Du Shaofu nodded in response.
"Sir, you are too polite."
The palace maid was a little surprised. She then looked at Du Shaofu and said, "I heard that the Second Princess went out to play with other princes in the afternoon. I am afraid that she has not returned yet. Sir, since you have the Golden Dragon Token, you should have a good relationship with the Second Princess. You can go in and wait. However, with the playful nature of the Second Princess, I am afraid that you will have to wait a little longer. I still have things to do, so I will take my leave now."
With that, the palace maid retreated respectfully and turned to leave.
Du Shaofu raised his head and looked at the Guang Moon Palace in front of him. There were three floors, and the cornices were ancient red and yellow. The upper floor was light green, and the color scheme was elegant.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west, and the curtain of night was beginning to fall. The night fog lingered around the palace, and the pavilion was in the haze, appearing and disappearing from time to time. It was extremely beautiful.
