Since the little General Shen had come to receive him, Wei Tengfei no longer needed to escort the General Shen to the capital. Like Ling Chaofeng, he had a heavy responsibility on him, and it was only the start of the new year.

It was unknown when Hanxi and Xiaowan would be reluctant to part, and Siyan was also reluctant to part with him. Xiaowan had promised her that in the future, she would bring her to the capital to see the fireworks.

First Princess, who had been depressed for the past few days, now had a bright smile on his face. He ran over happily and said, ”Did you guys forget about our aunt?”

Only then did everyone remember about Princess and Bi Zhenye. The emperor ordered Ling Chaofeng to bring back a message, telling him to send Shen Qing back to the capital to catch up with the group.

After walking a distance, the three groups of people went their own ways. Xiaowan looked at her reluctantly on the carriage and smiled at her: ”Evening, do you think you have a friend?”

Xiaowan asked happily: ”Aunt, how did you know?”

Aunt Zhang held her cheek, and said with a smile: ”Because I also had this day before, suddenly realizing, that I could still make friends.”

Xiaowan thought about how Aunt Zhang had told him about her background and when she found the chance, she asked Ling Chaofeng in private if she knew and if it was true.

Ling Chaofeng said indifferently: ”It doesn't matter if it's real or fake, Aunt will never come back, why should we investigate whether it's real or fake? Aunt told you to treat it as a joke, let's just treat it as a joke.”

”I know.” The Xiaowan said solemnly, ”In any case, I think of Aunt as the same as a mother, as long as we can be happy together.”

Ling Chaofeng looked down to see his wife's bulging stomach, and said: ”This time, when we return home, don't go too far, or else your body will be unable to take it anymore. ”If something happens to the child, you won't be blamed for my heartache, but you will definitely blame yourself for not protecting him properly.”

”I will listen to you, but …” ”Husband, you can't scare me anymore. If it's like this, you can at least tell me in advance.” The Xiaowan said very seriously, ”Don't mention that the emperor is angry, I am also very angry. I thought that something happened to you, I was extremely scared.”

”I was wrong. Late, please don't be angry, okay?” Ling Chaofeng's forehead was pressed against the Xiaowan's forehead as he lovingly held her face. He couldn't forget the Xiaowan kneeling in front of the emperor, the young emperor really knew how to control the people's hearts, any punishment would not even compare to the Xiaowan kneeling. Thinking back at this moment, he was still frustrated and heartbroken.

”I'll remember. If you do something wrong next time, I won't forgive you. Tell me, how can you scare me?” Xiaowan pouted, her face filled with anger, but the happiness in her eyes had long betrayed her. To her, as long as her husband was safe and sound, everything was fine.

Because Xiaowan was pregnant, Ling Chaofeng and the others walked very slowly, and those who stayed in the tavern naturally took longer time to wait.

Since the first day he was a stranger, he had been able to recognize even some of the wild vegetables in the rear mountain. Between Little Qing and him, he was already as familiar as a friend that had been with Bi Zhenye for many years.

In the past few days, there had been guests who had come to the tavern. The Uncle Biao was in charge of cooking, Susu did odd jobs, and the Princess, who knew how to settle debts, became the owner's guest.

Susu gradually became more familiar with the Princess. When she talked about family matters, she was curious as to why the Princess would settle debts. When she heard that Susu had been in the capital for two years, Little Qing smiled and asked: ”When you were in the capital, did you know my mother?”

Susu was slightly familiar with the situation, but she only knew that all the women in the Palace were envious of Prince Shen’s Mansion, that in order to love his wife, Master Shenwang did not take in concubines at home, and did not seek happiness outside.

Little Qing then laughed: ”In a family, when mother doesn't care about matters, she will naturally have a capable daughter or daughter-in-law. Our family is all my business, and from the moment I started to study and write, I will account. ”Ever since my mother had my help, she started to forget about everything else. Anyways, my father has spoilt her, so no one can say that she isn't.”

Bi Zhenye listened at the side with a faint smile on his face. Little Qing inadvertently looked back, their four eyes meeting, and they both separated in panic.

Bi Zhenye coughed dryly, ”Why has the emperor left for so long? There's no news either.”

Little Qing replied softly, ”Yes.”

The two of them looked at each other again and laughed.

Little Pei dragged his kite over, wanting Bi Zhenye to take him to play. Bi Zhenye carried him up, wanting the little fellow to sit on his shoulder. But Little Pei's chubby weight was not light. Bi Zhenye's raised it high enough and with a sway of his center of gravity, Little Pei fell down as well.
