The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds on the ground, and Xi Yu and others prepared to set off.

Before leaving, I had breakfast.

Qin Fushang said: "King, the villain learned that Chen Ping provided a key evidence that his crimes were relieved a lot."

So he roughly explained what he knew.

Xi Yu's brows frowned slightly, and he felt complicated by Chen Ping's behavior.

Unexpectedly, such a turning point occurred. It is a good thing to expose the previous sins, but I also feel that Chen Ping is a very selfish person.

Afterwards, Xi Yu and others left together.

They continued to move forward and embarked on the road to return home.

Zhao Yun suggested: "Master, we should not meddle in other people's business on the road. Come home quickly."

Xi Yu nodded, he understood everyone's mood.

The ups and downs along the way made them exhausted and longed to return to their warm home as soon as possible.

But when it comes to going home, Xi Yu said that every soldier is rewarded this time because they are brave and good at fighting. So this time, I will give you a long holiday and let them go back to reunite with their families.

The soldiers were extremely excited when they heard the news. Their joy was written on their faces. They shouted loudly, "Thank you, the king."

Their voices are still so consistent.

"You don't have to thank me, this is the benefit you deserve. And I will not let you go home empty-handed, and at that time I will ask you to bring some gifts home to honor your parents."

This time, the soldiers became even more happy.

Of course, some soldiers died during this attack on Luoyang, but most of the soldiers were able to return safely.

They walked along the ancient road, and the trees on both sides were tall and dense, as if they were guarding their way home. The sun shone through the gaps of the leaves, forming spots of light.

After calculating the itinerary, they can arrive in Youzhou in at most two days.

At night, the inn was silent. Xi Yu was lying on the bed, his thoughts flew and he couldn't fall asleep. Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door broke the tranquility.

Xi Yu's heart tightened and he stood up to open the door. He saw a nervous soldier standing outside the door.

"King, Miss Wan'er's grandfather's condition has deteriorated and he is almost out of reach!" The soldier said anxiously.

Xi Yu was shocked. Although he had already known that the old man was sick, he still felt very uncomfortable when he heard the news.

He quickly followed the soldiers to the old man's room.

Wan'er was standing by the old man's bed, tears streaming down her face. Xi Yu walked closer and saw that the old man's face was haggard and sallow, and he looked very sick.

"Wan'er, how are grandpa?" Xi Yu asked softly.

Wan'er raised her tears and shook her head, and tears flowed down even more violently.

Xi Yu was in a heavy mood, so he walked to the old man and held his hand.

"Grandpa, you have to hold on, we will find a way to treat you." Xi Yu's voice was firm.

Then, he asked the soldiers if they had found the Sui Jun Doctor. The soldiers nodded and had already called.

Because I would clarify with Wan'er sooner or later, Xi Yu simply called her grandfather.

The old man opened his eyes slightly, looked at Xi Yu, and showed a smile.

"Thank you, lord, I know my situation. Don't worry about me, I have lived long enough." The old man's voice was weak but calm.

Xi Yu felt the old man's open-mindedness and strength, and couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart.

"Grandpa, you are our elder, and we will do our best to take care of you. Please believe us." Xi Yu said with a firm look.

Wan'er stood by silently, her eyes full of sadness and helplessness.

The room was filled with a heavy atmosphere. Xi Yu looked at Wan'er's grief and felt unbearable. He approached Wan'er and gently patted her shoulder.

"Wan'er, don't be sad. Grandpa." Xi Yu comforted.

Wan'er raised her tears and nodded. She knew that Xi Yu was trying her best to comfort herself, but her inner pain was speechless.

At this moment, a military doctor walked in. He looked solemn, holding a medicine box in his hand. Everyone's eyes were gathered on him, hoping that he would bring good news.

However, after some inspection, the doctor shook his head, his expression full of helplessness.

"King, the old man's condition is already very serious, and he is helpless." The doctor said softly.

Wan'er's crying became more and more miserable. She knelt in front of the doctor, and she burst into tears.

"Please, doctor, you must save my grandfather! He is my only relative in the world!" Wan'er said cryingly.

Xi Yu felt ache in his heart, and he quickly helped Wan'er up.

"Wan'er, don't be impulsive. The doctor has tried his best, so we can't force it." Xi Yu comforted softly.

The doctor lowered his head and said with a guilty look on his face: "Master, I am really sorry. The old man's body has reached its limit, and I really can't help but make things happen."

Xi Yu's heart was full of helplessness. He understood that the doctor had tried his best. He sighed and said to the doctor: "Thank you for your hard work, let's go down first."

The doctor nodded and silently left the room.

The room was filled with a sad atmosphere. The old man was lying on the bed, breathing rapidly, and every cough made people feel heartbreaking.

Wan'er grabbed the old man's hand tightly, and tears blurred her eyes.

"Grandpa, don't leave me, I have no relatives anymore!" Wan'er said crying.

The old man opened his eyes faintly, his eyes filled with love and reluctance for Wan'er.

"Wan'er, don't cry. Grandpa has lived for a long time, but he just can't bear to part with you." The old man's voice was weak but calm.

Wan'er was crying, and she shook her head desperately.

"No, grandpa, don't leave me! I will take good care of myself, you must be with me!" Wan'er's voice was desperate.

The old man sighed softly, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Wan'er, you are a good child. Grandpa always knew that you were very strong. Grandpa was relieved to see that you found your own happiness." The old man looked at Wan'er gently.

Wan'er felt her grandfather's hand trembling slightly, and she grabbed his hand even more tightly.

"Grandpa, don't say anything more, take a break." Wan'er said softly.

The old man smiled, his eyes full of love and comfort.

"Wan'er, you have to remember that grandpa has always loved you. Grandpa believes that your future will be full of happiness." After saying this, the old man slowly closed his eyes.

Wan'er's cry echoed in the room, and she couldn't accept that her grandfather left her like this.

Xi Yu stood aside, feeling heavy. He looked at Wan'er's grief, and his heart was filled with pain and helplessness.

Wan'er's crying was particularly sharp, as if she was like Du Juan's Ming Cult.

Although she knew that this was an inn and should not make a big fuss or yell, she couldn't help it until now. Xi Yu knew that there were no one living in the surrounding rooms, so it didn't matter.

The room was filled with a sad atmosphere, and Xi Yu hugged Wan'er tightly, feeling her body trembling constantly.

"Wan'er, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I didn't care about Bei'an's affairs, we would have gone back long ago, so we could have asked Song Shuwen to see his grandfather." Xi Yu said blamingly.

Wan'er's cry echoed in his ears. She couldn't accept her grandfather's departure, and her heart was filled with pain and helplessness.

"No, lord, this is not your fault. Some things are fate." Wan'er said.

Xi Yu sighed, and he felt that he was full of guilt towards Wan'er.

"Wan'er, I know that nothing can be compensated for now, but I promise you that I will always be by your side, take care of you and care for you." Xi Yu said.

Wan'er raised her head and looked at Xi Yu's eyes. She could feel his sincerity and concern.

Xi Yu gently wiped away the tears from the corners of Wan'er's eyes and hugged her tightly into her arms.

"Wan'er, let's pray for grandpa together, and wish him peace of mind in heaven. We must also live a good life and make grandpa feel at ease." Xi Yu said.

In the inn room, Xi Yu and Wan'er sat quietly beside the old man's body, keeping a spirit for him.

Xi Yu's face was heavy, and his eyes revealed his respect and grief for the deceased.

"Wan'er, we want to keep a soul for our grandfather and let him rest in peace." Xi Yu said softly.

Wan'er nodded, her eyes full of sadness and determination.

Xi Yu got up, called a few soldiers, and began to arrange the mourning hall. The soldiers became busy, moved tables and chairs, hung white cloth, and lit incense.

However, their actions attracted the attention of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper walked into the room and saw the soldiers who were decorating the mourning hall.

"What are you doing? Why are someone dead here? This is so unlucky!" The shopkeeper's voice was filled with dissatisfaction and horror.

Xi Yu turned around and looked at the shopkeeper. His face was gloomy, and his eyes revealed his dissatisfaction with the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, are you not human at all? We should keep a guard for this old man to show our respect for him," Xi Yu scolded.

A hint of shame appeared on the shopkeeper's face, but he still insisted on his position.

"This is an inn, not a mourning hall. You cannot hold funerals here, as they will affect my business and will also bring bad luck to me. Please leave immediately!" said the shopkeeper.

Anger surged in Xi Yu's heart, and he could not accept the indifference and selfishness of the shopkeeper.

Just when the shopkeeper was arguing with Xi Yu, the soldiers on the side couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
