"I am Wei Tengfei's little sister, and my brother is a general of three hundred thousand soldiers." Siyan looked at his brother proudly, "It's good enough that I don't bully others."

"Since you're so incredible, why are you still crying?" Wei Tengfei lightly pinched her cheeks. Even though his little sister was now a noble empress, in his eyes, she was still a child that would never grow up.

"But …" It was actually these words that caused Siyan to feel grief. She immediately buried her face in his brother's chest and sobbed, "I don't care, I don't want to be separated from you."

This was his little sister that he had raised. After his mother died, fifteen years later, although he was too busy to take good care of her, his little sister never felt wronged. When she grew up, she would take care of him. With such a young age, she had organized everything in the family. In Wei Tengfei's opinion, it shouldn't be hard for her to take care of the emperor's harem.

It was a pity that they were too far away, and a pity that their military might was too great. At this moment, they were talking about protecting their little sister, and if something really happened, he wouldn't be able to make it in time.

"Everyone in the palace treats me well. You've also seen her before, especially his mother. Every time I speak to her, I feel especially uncomfortable, because I can't help but think that if my mother is still alive, she must be this gentle. My mother-in-law likes me a lot, and so does my grandmother. Everyone likes me. "

Siyan choked and then forced a smile on her face and said to his brother: "Really, brother, don't worry."

Wei Tengfei said: "The most important thing is whether the Emperor will treat you well. If there comes a day he …" As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh. He couldn't bring himself to say the rest of his words.

Siyan wiped the tears off her face. "If he treated me badly and I made such a ruckus, she would have crippled me long ago. When you hit me that day, he …

Siyan blushed, but they were after all, the children of generals, and they never squirmed when it came to doing things. She raised her head and said: "Now that he likes me, I will live a good life with him. Once fate has ended, begging for it will only lead to pain. I don't want to force it, but if I don't have any future, then no one can help me. "

"Big brother understands." "From today onwards, only the Emperor can wipe your tears. The Xiaowan was right, the next time you run, it's also time for the Emperor to come and pick you up, so I don't have to come."

Siyan purposely said: "It's better if you don't come, hit me the moment you come. If it wasn't for the fact that Xiaowan gave me some ointment that's extremely effective, and that I went to such a far place yesterday and sat in the carriage, my butt would have been smashed to smithereens."

Wei Tengfei laughed: "You're the Queen, you shouldn't be so rude when you speak." He hugged his sister and kissed her on the forehead. "Alright, we can't keep the emperor waiting. You still have to say goodbye to Xiaowan, right?"

Siyan nodded, and held her brother's hand as they walked out the door: "I really want to bring Xiaowan with me, even the Emperor has said that it would be good if she could go to the capital to be my companion, but Xiaowan is very happy here, she is here, I still have a place to stay after leaving the palace."

Wei Tengfei hurriedly said: "Don't always think about running out, don't think that I really won't dare to hit you again.

Siyan unhappily made a face at her brother. breakfast was already prepared downstairs, but Siyan was not in a hurry to eat it, she followed Xiaowan to the kitchen, asked for hot water to wash his face, and then casually smeared some makeup on his face. The two of them chatted and laughed until her wife came to urge them to go eat breakfast.

After breakfast, they would go to the dock to board the ship. Ling Chaofeng brought Xiaowan along to send them off, and then the group arrived at Baisha River Pier. The beautiful and grand boat was already stopped by the river side, with many more guards and palace guards added.

Xiaowan filled a bag of green bean cake and gave it to Siyan. It was reluctant to part with it, and without saying a word, its eyes turned red.

On the other hand, the emperor said gently, "Xiaowan, come and play in the capital and have the Empress entertain you. "In the future, I don't know when the empress and I will pass by again, but you have to treat them well."

Xiaowan nodded her head vigorously. "Your Majesty must come."

Xiang Run supported his wife as they slowly walked up the gangplank. When they reached the boat, the guards at the back of the palace followed and most of them boarded the small boat at the back.

Soon, the anchor was set off and the boat moved further and further away. The empress waved her handkerchief with all her might, her voice echoing through the wind. "Brother, you have to take care of yourself …"

Wei Tengfei waved his hand stiffly. His other hand was clenched into a fist and the veins on the back of his hand bulged. It was obvious that he was trying very hard to suppress his trembling.

"Hubby …" The scene of these siblings leaving made her heart ache. She and Siyan had long become good friends, and she couldn't help but cry in Ling Chaofeng's arms.

Not long after, the large ship disappeared from the Baisha River.

Wei Tengfei calmed down and saw that Xiaowan was crying while hugging her husband. He couldn't help but laugh and met eyes with Ling Chaofeng so he said: "I will be troubling you for a few days, it's time for me to leave. I am a coarse man who does not understand the ways of the world, but I must understand it now.

"I do not dare, it is my fortune to work for a general." Ling Chaofeng said, "General, please be at ease, I will do my best."

Wei Tengfei sighed: "You're so loyal to the imperial government, yet you don't ask for a position, nor for fame, it's really too difficult."

Ling Chaofeng smiled faintly: "I have inherited my parents' legacy, what I have done is not even a hair's breadth away from what they have done. I am very ashamed."

Seeing that he was being modest, Wei Tengfei did not say anymore. From now on, some of the favors and even money from Chuanyu’s Army would all come to the tavern to take a stroll. He would even come in contact with Ling Chaofeng.

"Xiaowan, I have to go too. Didn't you give me a bag of green bean cake?"

"No, I gave the rest to the Empress." Under Ling Chaofeng's comforting words, the Xiaowan calmed down and sputtered, "General, why don't you wait a bit, and get the Uncle Biao to do it for you immediately."

Wei Tengfei laughed loudly, "I'm just teasing you. In the future, ask Manager Ling to bring you over to Chuanyu, we have a lot of delicious things there, and it's not just spicy beasts."

Xiaowan agreed. Because sshe had cried too much, he kept her head lowered timidly, and only heard her husband say goodbye to him. Then, they all mounted their horses.

When the dust dispersed, the hundreds of people disappeared.

Everything around the tavern returned to normal, as if nothing had happened. There were only a hundred sets of chopsticks in the kitchen to prove that they had come here before.

Finally, he went back to his own room on the third floor. Ling Chaofeng pushed open the door and came in, putting down a bowl of sweet soup. Seeing that Xiaowan was lying on the bed, he walked over and sat down, putting his hands on her waist.

"Ugh …" The Xiaowan wriggled for a bit, then turned around and looked at her husband weakly, "I missed you. I haven't been able to talk properly these past two days and now I have to sleep separately."

bent down and kissed her again and again. The Xiaowan was a little greedy and wrapped her arms around Ling Chaofeng's neck, but hubby pulled over the blanket and covered her with it, "You're tired, so take a good rest and continue to do business at the inn. You still have a lot of things to do at the Li Prefecture. "We'll continue to operate the inn, and only then will we have more friends. In the future when the empress leaves home, will she have a place to stay?"

Xiaowan laughed, "Empress said that she no longer dares to run away from home. However, if anyone bullies me in the future, she would welcome me running away from home to the capital to seek refuge with her."

Ling Chaofeng gave a faint smile as his large hand lightly rubbed her soft and small butt. "Who gave you the guts to run away from home?"

Her wife's eyes were so clear and clean, it seemed like she did not feel anything strange from Wei Tengfei's body. It didn't matter, she was so lovable that anyone who saw her would like her, but there were many different kinds of things. No matter which one it was, he couldn't care less what others thought.

Xiaowan hugged her blanket and lazily rolled over. She closed her eyes and muttered, "I wonder where the next customer will come from. I now know why my master has so many friends. In the future, I will also have …"

Ling Chaofeng left the room and walked to the second floor. He looked around at the rooms, and thought about all the guests in the past, why did his mother choose this place to build an inn that year, and why did she set her sights on this place?

Downstairs, Uncle Biao had to go to the town to gather the ingredients. Hundreds of people ate up the entire inn, if there were any customers, they wouldn't even be able to take anything out. He had originally wanted to ask Xiaowan if she was going, but Ling Chaofeng said she was asleep, so he asked his to buy some delicious food and bring it back.

Not long after they left, Ershan cleaned the stables and came in to drink water. Seeing Ling Chaofeng at the counter, he walked over, lowered his eyes and said: "Brother, thank you."

Ling Chaofeng glanced at him: "Go back and study, it's about time for August, you will go to the capital early in July, you will go alone, I will have the people from the mighty escort team escort you there, but you will have to take care of other matters yourself."

Ershan nodded, and turned to return to his room, but Ling Chaofeng suddenly stopped him.

"Brother, is there anything else?" Ershan asked.

However, Ling Chaofeng only looked at him with a deep gaze, as if he wanted to dig out Ershan's heart. He looked away lightly and said: "You must prepare yourself, in this year's country test, the imperial government will probably leave a group of people to teach in the capital, until next year's test. If you pass, you might be able to stay in the capital for a while longer."

"Yes." Ershan replied and left silently. When he reached the backyard, he heaved a sigh of relief. When his elder brother had looked at him that way, he felt like he could barely hide anything, but he had to hide it until the day he could take it out.
