The eldest lady is both a doctor and a warrior, they love her so much

"She looks young, so she should be easy to teach." Nangong Ziqiu thought to himself, "But as we are heading to Mingdu, should we reveal our true identities to her?"

"I can't hide it, but I don't have to confess it right now. I still need to observe this little girl's temperament along the way. I have promised to heal the scar on her forehead, and the speed of the progress depends entirely on me."

"Xinxin is kind-hearted." Nangong Ziqiu put his arm around Hua Xin's slender waist and gently kissed her forehead. "Why didn't the third brother come over?"

When Hua Xin first heard the word "Old Third", he was unable to come back to his senses for a moment.

"He...he's next door."

It has to be said that Ye Lansheng is a very law-abiding person. Hua Xin clearly told him that she didn't need his company tonight, so he really stayed next door obediently and didn't take a step out.

Just like at this moment, although Nangong Ziqiu came to deliver the meal because Mo Chuli explained the situation, as Hua Xin's husband, Ye Lansheng could have shown up on his own initiative. However, until this moment, he had not made any movement. He must have fallen asleep, right?

In fact, it was impossible for Ye Lansheng to really fall asleep.

Even the slightest sound coming from the next room would be keenly captured by him.

Especially when Tian Yang told him that Hua Xin was dressed up and ready to go out, deep down he actually wanted to go out with her very much.

However, just as he was about to step out of the room, he suddenly stopped.

Because he knew very well that if he did so, Hua Xin would most likely mistakenly believe that he was monitoring her every move.

Sometimes, pretending not to know may be the best option.

After all, being able to go to Nanxun Kingdom in person to bring her back to his side was an indescribable joy for him. As for other aspects, there was really no need for him to care too much.

In comparison, he felt ashamed that he was not as considerate as Nangong Ziqiu.

Before getting married, Ye Lansheng learned the most about the ways of governing a country and the art of conspiracy and intrigue, but he was completely confused when it came to matters of the heart.

Since meeting Hua Xin, he has gradually been attracted by her unique charm.

The little girl who once dared to stop his sedan chair in the street has now become his wife.

If it were in the past, he probably would never have imagined getting married.

However, all of this was completely changed due to the appearance of Hua Xin.

To this day, he still remembers the girl asking him, "Third Prince, do you want a concubine?"

If it were him now, he would definitely agree without hesitation and bring this girl to his side first.

In this way, will there be fewer men around her?

Ye Lansheng fell asleep with all these random thoughts in his mind, but he woke up earlier than anyone else the next day.

Ye Lansheng wanted to go see Hua Xin, but then he remembered that the little girl slept very late last night and would definitely not wake up so early.

So he decided to call Tianyue and Tiansha to inspect the entire inn together.

As for Tianyang, he was still arranged to stay by Hua Xin's side to ensure her safety.

"Master, when do we set off today?" Tianyue asked.

"Let's wait until Xinxin wakes up before setting off! After all, the weather will be rainy and snowy, and the road will be difficult to travel on."

Ye Lansheng thought to himself that even if the road was difficult, as long as she moved forward slowly, at least he would be by her side.

However, once he returned to the princess's mansion, he would be busy again and would have even less time to accompany her.

Tianyue did not understand Ye Lansheng's implication as Tianyang did. Instead, he thought about notifying the other brothers and asked them to speed up as much as possible on the road.

If Tianyang heard Tianyue's thoughts here, he would definitely give him a slap on the wrist without any hesitation, because he was simply doing more harm than good!

such a pity!

Tianyang didn’t know this, and Tianyue wasn’t clear about the reason either, and thus such a beautiful misunderstanding arose.

When Hua Xin and his party arrived in Mingdu, it happened to be the Lantern Festival.

The Shangyuan Festival, also known as the Lantern Festival, is a traditional festival of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Among the people, there has been an old custom of lighting lanterns and praying for blessings since ancient times.

People usually start "testing the lights" on the 14th night of the first lunar month, and the 15th night is the "main lighting".

In addition, people would light lanterns, also known as "sending lanterns", to hold activities to worship gods and pray for blessings.

It is particularly worth mentioning that on the night of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is a custom of lighting lanterns in the White Horse Temple, which is euphemistically called "lighting lanterns to offer to Buddha."

Not only that, there are many festive activities during the Lantern Festival, such as tasting Yuanxiao, watching lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, etc.

Long before, someone had already rushed a message to the palace to report the news, so Ye Qingyao had already ordered the people in the Ministry of Rites to make careful preparations to welcome Hua Xin and others back in triumph.

However, since the ceremonial guard led by Pei Run was moving a little slowly and was estimated to take several days to arrive, the return of Hua Xin and his team did not cause much of a sensation and the scene was relatively small.

Moreover, most of them went straight back to the princess's mansion. Only Hua Xin and Ye Lansheng accompanied Nangong Ziqiu into the palace to meet the emperor.

Ye Qingyao directly summoned the three of them to the Taiji Palace.

Not only that, Ye Qingyao also specially asked someone to invite Hua Yuxing and Hua Moxuan into the palace. It happened to be the Lantern Festival, so Ye Qingyao took the opportunity to arrange for everyone to enjoy a reunion dinner together.

Since they hadn't seen Hua Xin for a long time, Hua Yuxing and Hua Moxuan wanted to glue their eyes to her when they saw her. However, they were in the palace at the moment and had to follow etiquette. As for what they wanted to say, they could only say it slowly after returning home.

When Hua Yuxing and Nangong Ziqiu looked at each other, Nangong Ziqiu called out the word "father" without hesitation, which made Hua Yuxing very happy.

"Very good, very good. In the future you must support each other and live a good life."

Hua Yuxing thought there was no need to say more. After all, this was Liu Sheng's child, and he could naturally trust him.

However, Ye Qingyao was unhappy when he saw this, and he forced Nangong Ziqiu to call him "Father". Only in this way did he feel a little more balanced.

Seeing the special way Hua Yuxing and Ye Qingyao get along with each other, Ye Lansheng could only smile helplessly.

As the saying goes: "Old children, old children", these two are obviously not old, but why are they so childish?

Ye Lansheng only thought about this kind of thing in his mind. If he really said it out loud, it would be extremely disrespectful and treasonous!

After dinner, the group went back home, to the princess's residence.

Hua Yuxing was also dragged back by Hua Xin. After all, there was a room specially reserved for him in the princess's mansion.

But everyone saw two ragged, unkempt men at the gate of the princess's mansion.

One of them seemed to be unable to believe who he saw. He rubbed his eyes and then cried out with a sad face: "Nini, I finally see you."
