Old duke watched Zhou Gu leaving without looking back, and with a chuckle called him a "rascal".
Princess Sheng An gave the old duke a knock and grumbled, "Why did you insult him? Did he offend you somehow? He's gone and you're still scolding him."
The old duke glared, "He didn't even look back. Don't I have a right to scold him?"
Princess Sheng An snorted, "No, you don't. He never looked back. Maybe like us, he's hiding his teary eyes."
The old duke stroked his beard, "He's gone now, stop protecting him, you won't even let me speak."
"My grandson is fine. Why should he always be scolded by you? Even a single word is not allowed." Princess Sheng An stared at the long street, watching Zhou Gu getting farther and farther away until he disappeared from sight. Then she turned and asked the duchess, "Didn't Gu just look back? Didn't he? My old eyes are blurred. I didn't see clearly."
