"Xiaowan, where are we going next?" Just then, Lian Yi got off the carriage, and seeing that she was standing motionlessly, she walked over and asked, "Are you alright?"
Xiaowan shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly felt like it …"
She did not say those words. If she said them, no one would believe her. The onlookers would only think that it was her longing that caused the disease.
The Uncle Biao replied, "Let's go to the shop where Ershan is staying. The people there are familiar with him, so we can gather more information."
Therefore, she got on the horse carriage again and headed towards the inn. Looking at the scenery along the street, Susu had told her before that the buildings in the capital were higher than the Baisha Town, and the streets in the capital were wider than the Baisha Town …
"Look, Xiaowan Palace." Lian Yi pointed in the distance, "Is that the Imperial Palace?"
"It's a pity that I can't see anything. This city wall is even taller than the one I just saw." The Xiaowan muttered to herself, "Are the Emperor and the others all afraid of death?"
The Uncle Biao was once a imperial guard and was very familiar with the Imperial City. He told Lian Yi and the Xiaowan, "There is a moat outside the Imperial City, you are correct.
Xiaowan did not say anything. She felt a breeze blow her black hair away, causing her to gently stroke it. She subconsciously turned her face to look.
Ling Chaofeng was right beside her, he had gently caressed her hair just now, her wife had lost weight, and she could no longer laugh, the once quick-witted and lively young lady had disappeared.
In the past, she would throw herself into his arms and act coquettishly every day. If there was anything good to eat, she would give it to him with one bite. She would beg for forgiveness faster than anyone else.
She said she couldn't think of anything else in the world that was worth getting angry about or sad about. As long as he was there, everything was fine.
But he was gone, and she couldn't see him even when she was beside him.
But at this moment, Xiaowan's hand reached over and "touched" Ling Chaofeng's chin. It was unknown if it was a coincidence or if she could feel it, but it actually touched his face accurately.
"Hubby …" Xiaowan read it in a daze, and her tears flowed again.
Ling Chaofeng's hand covered Xiaowan's hand. "Evening, I'm here."
Xiaowan's eyes lightly flickered, but her husband's face was not reflected. Her heart felt that her husband seemed to be right beside her, but she could not see, and could not reach out to touch him.
The carriage stopped, they had arrived, and explained their origins to the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper saw that the description of Uncle Biao and his appearance was exactly the same as what Ershan had mentioned, he believed them immediately.
The house was neat and tidy, only the desk was piled with books, but when people went in, the house owner said that he did not see Ershan back after that day.
This time, it was Lian Yi's turn to shed tears. They had been looking for a way here and there, feeling disappointed and frustrated time and again.
"Where did you go …" Lian Yi found a stack of letters she had written for Ershan on the desk. From the initial inn to the recent correspondence, every single one of them were precious to him. She even carefully tore open the envelopes.
"There aren't many empty rooms in the inn. If the ladies could please take care of things for a moment, the two of you will share a room with me. I'm sorry, but I can't spare more rooms." The innkeeper said.
This was the most prosperous place in the capital, so it would be terrible if there was no business here, just like their Ling Xiao Inn.
"It's already very good. Shopkeeper, sorry to trouble you." The Xiaowan thanked him and took out the silver and handed it over to the shopkeeper. After giving it to each other, the storekeeper took them to another room and left.
Xiaowan placed his sleeping son on the bed and softly said, "Why is this little thing still sleeping?"
However, she did not know that at this moment, her husband was by her side, while Little Pei, in order to not let her mother find out, had concealed his Golden Light and Immortal body.
Ling Chaofeng could not leave the stone statue for too long, his immortal soul would lure the demons over here. If he stayed by Xiaowan's side, the demons might attack him together with the others.
"You have to be fine tonight. I can see you directly from the capital. Don't be afraid, I won't let anyone hurt you."
Along the way, father and son didn't say a word. When his soul returned to his body, Little Pei said, "Father, don't worry, I will protect mother."
As soon as he finished his words, someone on a horse galloped towards the Imperial Palace, dismounted from his horse and unarmored it before the doors of the palace. He then strided into the Imperial City with his head held high, and Little Pei said: "Father, this General Wei has been following us the entire way, he seems to be protecting Mother. Father, did he fall in love with his mother? "
Ling Chaofeng replied: "You're just a little kid, and you know all this?"
Little Pei churned in the sky as he laughed, "Father, I am a god after all. But Mom didn't even look at him. Mom seemed to hate him a lot.
"Alright, quickly go back to your mother. Little Pei, you definitely cannot tell me about this. Otherwise, you will have to go back to the Heavenly Court and be separated from your mother forever. " Ling Chaofeng warned again, "Your mother is very smart, you have to be careful."
With a word from Ling Pei, he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As Wei Tengfei walked along the palace path, he felt a large gust of wind blow past him from above. Naturally, he could not see any Golden Light Golden Dragon.
His subordinates had long returned with the head of a bandit chief, but he had followed the Xiaowan around and only returned at this moment.
Inside the Qingming Pavilion, the emperor was looking at the paper money that was presented to him. The attendants brought Wei Tengfei in, saw him bowing, and said: "We're family, no need to be courteous, you've worked hard all the way here."
Wei Tengfei got up, and then knelt down on one knee: "This official is guilty."
Xiang Run smiled faintly: "It's just that you returned a few days late, there was no delay in proper matters at all. I heard that you swept away the bandit's nest in one day, and Royal Uncle had always been praising you in front of us."
Wei Tengfei lowered his head in silence, completely uninterested in the emperor's polite words. He suddenly said, "Your majesty, Mu Xiaowan has arrived at the capital."
Outside the palace, the empress came in quietly with the little princess in her arms. She had no idea that her big brother had returned, and had wanted to bring her daughter to relieve the emperor's boredom. But when she reached the door, she heard her big brother's voice.
His brother had even said that the Xiaowan had arrived at the capital.
"We knew about it not long after she left the Baisha Town." Xiang Run put down the paper in his hand and said casually, "Do you know the teenager from their inn called Ershan also called Ling Yu?"
Wei Tengfei said: "I was not familiar with him before, but on the way here I noticed that the Xiaowan was looking for this person. I sent people to ask around and only found out that he is very promising."
The Emperor smiled and asked, "Are you going to help the Xiaowan find him?"
Wei Tengfei looked at his calmly and nodded: "I want to do something for her. With Ling Chaofeng dead, she is very pitiful.
The emperor couldn't help but frown. Wei Tengfei also turned around in shock as he saw the empress walking in with the little princess in her arms. He stopped in front of the door and asked him, "Brother, what did you say? Who did you say was dead? "
He couldn't hide it any longer.
Siyan had been waiting for news from the Xiaowan. She wanted to know if she was safe and healthy. The change in Ling Xiao Inn caused her to worry for her sister. She didn't know where Xiaowan and the others had drifted to.
But she had always thought that as long as Manager Ling was here, nothing would happen to his. No matter where she was, he would be doted on and protected.
But now, his brother said that Ling Chaofeng was dead.
"I want to know everything." Siyan looked at her husband firmly. She knew that her brother would not tell her, but the Emperor would not let him, so she asked her husband directly without asking her brother.
Xiang Run was furious, he ordered Wei Tengfei: "You can leave."
Wei Tengfei wanted to say something, but he hesitated. However, when he thought about how his sister and the Emperor would have to spend the rest of their lives together, it was inevitable that there would be conflicts between them.
She hugged her daughter as she slowly walked closer to Xiang Run, and coldly said. "In the opinion of the Emperor, chenqie isn't worthy of knowing these things. Is the Emperor afraid that chenqie will cause trouble without reason, or that chenqie will disregard the entire situation? In the eyes of the Emperor, what kind of person is chenqie exactly? chenqie is only fit to bear your child and then muddle along for the rest of your life? "
Xiang Run raged: "Don't tell me that even I have to report to you about the matters of the imperial government. Are you the emperor, or am I the emperor?"
Siyan was not afraid in the slightest. Instead, she walked closer step by step, "Naturally, we have to take care of things. In the end, the Emperor does not have the confidence that his concubine will always stand on your side, or the Emperor feels that he has done wrong from the start, so he does not dare to say anything."
"Wei Siyan!" Long Yan was furious.
"Did the emperor's thoughts get straight?" Siyan looked straight at him, the tears in her eyes glimmered, "But even if you did wrong, even if tens of thousands of citizens are against you, no matter what, I will stand behind you. I work so hard, and I work so hard to become someone who can stand by your side, but you don't believe me."
"Siyan..."
At this moment, Ling Chaofeng was squatting on the Announcement Hall's eaves, and from afar, he saw the Xiaowan bringing Little Pei and Uncle Biao Lian Yi away from the inn.
Bi Zhenye walked behind them, and the Bi’s Mansion carriage was not far away. But for some reason, he took a glance at the person standing at the side, a tall and sturdy man with a rough appearance, and two young and beautiful women standing by his side. Someone behind him walked past, and said to each other: "They seem to have come to find Ling.
Bi Zhenye's brows slightly trembled, he took the initiative to walk over and asked: "May I ask, are you looking for Ling Yu?"
Lian Yi turned around and said: "Young Noble is courteous, I would like to ask if young master has seen Ling Yu before, he is also a student here."
Bi Zhenye asked: "You are... His family? "
