Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Two words emerged in my mind.

Me!

Damn!

I, Changsun Mei, am not going to be a lady today. How infuriating is this old man!

Forcibly calming myself down.

"Grandpa, I want to meet Yuchi."

Changsun Mei made her intention clear, looking decisively at the white-haired old man in front of her.

If you don't listen to me, that's fine. I don't want to talk to someone with your temper anyway.

But just because you won't listen doesn't mean I can't go find Yuchi, right?

Even if Yuchi is an outsider in your eyes, he's much more reasonable than you guys.

"No." Changsun Hao refused outright.

"Why?" Changsun Mei immediately countered.

"Because Yuchi is just someone who's about to become obsolete." Changsun Hao squinted his eyes and smiled triumphantly.

He already envisioned his perfect future.

Xufu Town would be his domain, Changsun Hao's territory.

Isn't that too comfortable?

"Because he's about to be obsolete, so I shouldn't go find him? Is that your logic?" Changsun Mei didn't want to curse.

She knew her manners, but now she just couldn't hold back.

"Yes, that's exactly the logic."

"Besides, Mei'Er, there's no need to invest your whole heart in him."

"Even though I did tell you to study Yuchi thoroughly before, and I did think Yuchi was an impressive young man."

"But those are things of the past. Now, he absolutely can't overcome this adversity."

"It's even possible that Yuchi is the one scheming behind the scenes, collaborating with other families to attack us."

Great.

Conspiracy theories are here, so what's left to say? No matter what, this old man can always find an excuse.

"Please, I want to see Yuchi." Changsun Mei ignored what her grandfather said and stubbornly repeated herself.

"I said no."

This time, Changsun Hao's expression became noticeably worse.

Why is my granddaughter so stubborn, like whom?

But considering it's his granddaughter, he added:

"Rest assured, there will be young men much better than Yuchi in the future. Your future husband will be someone else."

"If not a prince or high minister, at least a regional overlord."

"Are you afraid of the arrangements of our Zhangsun Family? Do you think the husband I'll find for you in the future will be inferior?"

Changsun Hao saw it very clearly that Changsun Mei would be his pawn, sent off to marry someone.

This is something Changsun Mei can't escape from.

Besides, she would not be married off randomly; Changsun Mei was a key card.

"So, the people you'll meet in the future will be no better than Yuchi?"

"Haha, let me tell you, you need to have a long-term view. Xufu Town is, to put it bluntly, just a small town."

"Yuchi is just part of a family in a small town."

While Changsun Mei was angry and said nothing, Changsun Hao continued to express his thoughts.

Waving a folding fan bought at a high price from a courtesan.

Enjoying the fragrance from the folding fan, leisurely and carefree.

"When you reach a big place in the future, there will be so many excellent young men."

"By then, when you become a respected young lady-in-law, won't that be an honor?"

"Otherwise, can the status and resources of that boy Yuchi match the effort and knowledge you've put in over the years?"

Old master, do you still care about this courtesan?

At your age, can you still keep up?

Don't end up dead on the bed.

Changsun Mei could only keep sighing repeatedly, her face entangled in pain, responding:

"Grandfather, do you really think I, Changsun Mei, am afraid of being used?"

"I was born in the Zhangsun Family. From the moment I became sensible, I knew I had to follow your arrangements."

"Moreover, I know I have no say in my future marriage; it's all about interests and exchanges."

"I'm fully aware that, many times, interests and exchanges are more reliable than mere affection."

"I also believe you can provide me with a good future."

"But..."

"No but," Changsun Hao interrupted the words Changsun Mei was about to say.

Changsun Mei was at a loss for words. She had opened her heart to talk to her grandfather, but he still wouldn't listen?

Changsun Hao's response was affirmative.

"No buts, this is what I, Changsun Hao, say. It's what I, as the Patriarch of the Zhangsun Family, say!"

"The only thing you need to do now is to trust me."

"Or have you not noticed Yuchi's miserable state recently?"

"Originally, he didn't often go out with his niece, Wei Ximo, always mysteriously busy, running around."

"But after a trip to Jiangzhou City, he became completely lazy."

"Who knows what he did in Jiangzhou City, who knows if he has been plotting against us?"

"Yuchi is already just Yuchi, incomparable to me, Changsun Hao."

This speech from Changsun Hao successfully lowered his image in Changsun Mei's heart.

Is my grandfather really like this?

Does he genuinely exploit public matters for private gain? All those words spoken back then, where have they gone? Completely forgotten?

Changsun Hao had no idea about his granddaughter's thoughts; he was full of self-satisfaction.

"So you'll see, by tonight, if he doesn't give us an answer, if he doesn't give us a result by tonight."
