Linglong and Xu Tingshan have always been curious about everything in ancient times. One day, they hit it off and decided to go back to ancient times to see if there was anything new.

As soon as they entered the palace, the servants came to greet them with joy. Not long after the couple sat down, before they had time to savor this familiar environment, they heard that Abbot Huiyuan wanted to see them.

Xu Tingshan and Linglong looked at each other, both puzzled, wondering what Abbot Huiyuan was up to. When the abbot was led into the hall, he looked solemn, clasped his hands together and said, "My Lord, my Lady, I am here for a matter that concerns the lives of the people of the world. Recently, I observed the sky at night and found that an evil aura was approaching, which may bring great disaster to the world."

Xu Tingshan frowned and asked, "Abbot, where does this evil energy come from? Is there any way to break it?"

Abbot Huiyuan said slowly: "This energy comes from an ancient secret place. It is said that there are endless treasures and mysterious powers hidden in it. But because of this, it has attracted countless greedy people. Their desires have awakened the evil power dormant in it."

Linglong couldn't help but worry: "What should I do?"

Abbot Huiyuan looked at the couple with a determined gaze: "I have calculated that only if the prince and princess go to the secret realm in person and find the treasure that seals the evil can this disaster be resolved."

Xu Tingshan and Linglong accepted this difficult task without hesitation. They immediately packed their bags and set out on a journey full of unknowns. Along the way, they encountered all kinds of difficulties and obstacles, including attacks by ferocious beasts and steep terrain.

However, just as they were about to reach the secret realm, they discovered that their whereabouts seemed to be secretly monitored. It turned out that a treacherous official in the court had learned of this and was trying to seize the treasure first and control the world.

In the battle of wits and courage with the treacherous ministers, Xu Tingshan and Linglong almost fell into despair. But at the critical moment, Xu Tingshan suddenly remembered his strategy and wisdom as the regent, and Linglong also showed the courage and perseverance of the princess.

In the end, the couple successfully got rid of the entanglement of the treacherous ministers, entered the secret realm, found the mysterious treasure, successfully sealed the evil spirit, and saved the people of the world. After this battle, they also remembered the responsibilities of their identities.

The emperor sat in the imperial study, holding a memorial in his hand, but his mind was not on it at all. He heard that the regent Xu Tingshan had returned, and mixed emotions surged in his heart. This regent had experienced countless ups and downs with him. It had been a long time since they last met, and he wondered what he looked like now.

Not long after, Xu Tingshan stepped into the imperial study. He was still upright and had a deep gaze, but his face looked a little more vicissitudes.

"Your Highness," Xu Tingshan saluted.

The emperor quickly stood up and helped him up himself, "Prince Regent, please stop being polite. There is no need for such formalities between you and me."

The two sat opposite each other in silence for a while. The emperor was the first to break the deadlock, "I am very happy that the Regent has returned this time. I wonder if the journey was smooth?"

Xu Tingshan nodded slightly, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Everything is fine."

However, in this seemingly peaceful atmosphere, both of them have their own thoughts. The emperor is worried that Xu Tingshan will become too successful, while Xu Tingshan is worried that the emperor will be suspicious of him.

At this moment, a eunuch hurried in to report: "Your Majesty, urgent news from the border!"

The emperor's expression tensed up, and when he took the urgent report and looked at it, his face instantly turned gloomy. It turned out that the war at the border was tense and the enemy was coming fiercely.

Upon seeing this, Xu Tingshan immediately stood up and asked: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go out again to pacify the border for our dynasty!"

The emperor hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

Xu Tingshan led his army to the border and fought bravely. But just when they were about to win, rumors suddenly spread in the army that Xu Tingshan intended to take over the army. When the news reached the capital, the emperor was furious.

However, all this turned out to be a plot by the enemy to sow discord. Xu Tingshan saw through the conspiracy at the critical moment and successfully repelled the enemy. When he returned to Beijing with the victory report, the emperor personally went out of the city to greet him, and the two finally eliminated the estrangement in their hearts.

In the magnificent palace, the Regent Xu Tingshan walked side by side with the Emperor. Xu Tingshan looked solemn and was the first to break the silence: "Your Majesty, I want to go to the temple to burn incense later. I wonder if Your Majesty wants to go with me?" The Emperor frowned slightly and replied thoughtfully: "I have no intention of going, but since the Regent invited me, I can go with you."

Xu Tingshan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this trip to burn incense was of great significance. It turned out that strange things had happened in the palace recently, rumors were spreading, and people were in a panic. Xu Tingshan suspected that there was a villain trying to disrupt the government. It was said that there was a monk in this temple who could see through the secrets of heaven and might be able to solve this dilemma.

When they were about to leave, news suddenly came from the palace that the queen had suddenly fallen seriously ill. The emperor was extremely worried and wanted to visit the queen first. Xu Tingshan knew that this was strange and advised the emperor to put the overall situation first and go to the temple to seek guidance from the gods. The emperor was in a dilemma and finally decided to go to the temple with Xu Tingshan.

However, on the way to the temple, they were attacked by a group of mysterious assassins. Xu Tingshan fought hard and protected the emperor from the siege. Just as they were about to arrive at the temple, they found that the temple had been set on fire and was in ruins.

Xu Tingshan knew that the black hand behind the scene was powerful. Just when he felt desperate, the emperor took out a mysterious jade pendant from his arms and said that it was given to him by the late emperor before his death, and it could keep him safe at the critical moment. The emperor raised the jade pendant, and in an instant, dark clouds covered the sky, and a lightning bolt struck the open space in front of the temple, and a mysterious old man appeared. The old man claimed to be an immortal who protected the royal family and came to help them eradicate the treacherous villains.

Finally, with the help of the immortal, Xu Tingshan and the emperor found out the culprit behind the crime, and the palace returned to its former peace.

After Xu Tingshan dealt with a bunch of trivial matters in the palace, he breathed a sigh of relief and was finally able to return to the Regent's Palace. He was thinking about Princess Linglong and wondered why she came to see him this time.

Along the way, Xu Tingshan was filled with thoughts. This Linglong Princess had been married to the palace for more than 30 years, but she was extremely intelligent and won his heart.

After entering the palace, Xu Tingshan went straight to the study, only to see Princess Linglong sitting there with a slightly solemn look on her face.

"Your Highness, you are finally back." Princess Linglong stood up to greet him.

Xu Tingshan gently held her hand and asked, "My beloved, why are you so anxious?"

Princess Linglong frowned slightly and whispered, "Your Highness, I have been feeling that someone is secretly monitoring us in the palace these days. I am afraid that our every move is under the control of others."

Xu Tingshan's heart was shocked, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes: "Is this true? I want to see who has such courage!"

However, after some investigation, he still had no clue. Just when Xu Tingshan was confused, late one night, he found that one of his subordinates left the house alone and his whereabouts were mysterious.

Xu Tingshan followed him quietly and saw his subordinate walk into a remote inn and meet a mysterious man.

He was furious and was about to rush in to question him, but he heard his subordinate say, "I have gained Xu Tingshan's trust and will soon know the whereabouts of his confidential documents."

Xu Tingshan was struck by lightning and couldn't believe what he saw. He never thought that his trusted subordinate would betray him. But he suppressed his anger and decided to keep quiet and see what kind of conspiracy was hidden behind it.

Linglong and Xu Tingshan sat in the dim study, the atmosphere was solemn. Xu Tingshan frowned, and the teacup in his hand trembled slightly.

"What do we need a subordinate like this for? We can't keep someone who can ruin our plans like this!" Linglong's eyes widened with anger, her voice a little sharp due to anger.

Xu Tingshan took a deep breath and said slowly: "Just forget it if you are stupid." There was a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, but it also seemed mixed with a bit of helplessness.

It turned out that a business conspiracy they had carefully planned was accidentally leaked by a subordinate, causing the entire plan to be on the verge of bankruptcy. This subordinate seemed loyal on weekdays, but he failed at the critical moment.

Xu Tingshan and Linglong decided to solve this problem themselves. They began to secretly investigate the whereabouts of their subordinates and prepared to take action on a dark and windy night.

However, what they didn't know was that this subordinate had already sensed the danger and was secretly collecting evidence of their conspiracy, preparing to strike back.

When Xu Tingshan and Linglong were preparing to attack their subordinates according to the plan, the subordinate appeared in front of them and said coldly: "Do you think I will sit and wait for death?" Then he took out the evidence and threatened to make their crimes public.

Xu Tingshan and Linglong looked devastated. They never thought that things would develop to this point.

Xu Tingshan and Linglong are an amazing pair. Their courage seems to be innate, and it seems that there is nothing in this world that can fear them.

They have a subordinate who has evil intentions and tries to control the situation through threats. This subordinate secretly collects all kinds of evidence about Xu Tingshan and Linglong. When he thinks the time is right, he jumps out and reveals his ferocious face.

"If you don't listen to me, I promise to ruin your reputation!" said the subordinate viciously.

Xu Tingshan and Linglong just smiled at each other, without any fear in their eyes. They knew that retreating would only make the other party more arrogant.

In the following days, they appeared calm and continued to work and live as usual, but they were secretly collecting evidence, preparing to deal a fatal blow to this arrogant subordinate.

On a seemingly ordinary night, the subordinate was gloating and fantasizing about the bright future that he would soon succeed in. Suddenly, Xu Tingshan and Linglong appeared in front of him and laid out the evidence they had collected one by one. The subordinate's face turned pale instantly. He never expected that his threats would not only fail, but he was outwitted by the other party.

Xu Tingshan looked at his subordinate coldly and said, "If you do too much evil, you will eventually perish. This is what you deserve."

Linglong called the relevant department without hesitation, and finally the subordinate who attempted to threaten them received the due punishment. Xu Tingshan and Linglong continued to move forward fearlessly to meet the challenges of the future.

After Linglong and Xu Tingshan finished their work, they returned home exhausted. They sat at the table, facing each other in silence, with a hint of confusion in the air.

"Tingshan, what kind of business do you think we should do next?" Linglong broke the silence first, her eyes full of anticipation.

Xu Tingshan frowned, thought for a moment and said, "How about we open a restaurant? People's lives are getting better and better now, and the demand for food must be great."

Linglong shook her head: "Opening a restaurant is too hard, and the competition is fierce."

Xu Tingshan suggested again: "How about doing a fabric business?"

Linglong was still not satisfied: "We don't know much about this business, and the risk is too great."

The two of them fell into deep thought, and time seemed to freeze. Suddenly, Linglong's eyes lit up: "Tingshan, I've got an idea! We can open a special handicraft store. Nowadays, everyone likes things with personality. We can collect unique crafts from all over the world and sell them in the store."

Xu Tingshan clapped his hands and said, "This is a good idea! Maybe it can make a name for itself."

They started to prepare for the business right away, looking for a store, contacting craftsmen, and preparing funds.

Just when everything seemed to be going smoothly, something unexpected happened: the landlord of the store they had booked suddenly changed his mind and wanted to rent the house to someone else, and the reason he gave was that someone else had offered a higher price.

Linglong and Xu Tingshan were extremely anxious and looked for a new store, but the prices were either too high or the location was too bad. Just when they were about to despair, an old man they had helped before lent a hand and offered them a store with a great location and a very reasonable rent.

Eventually, their handicraft shop opened successfully and business was booming, and their lives became better as a result.

Sun Yao, Linglong and Xu Tingshan are good friends who grew up together. The three of them used to play together on the streets of a small town and vowed to make a career when they grow up.

Time flies, Linglong and Xu Tingshan join hands to start a business, they opened a special snack bar. At first, the shop business was quiet, Sun Yao often came to help and give advice, and they survived the difficult days together.

They constantly improved the dishes, researched new flavors, and provided more attentive service. Gradually, the snack bar became famous and attracted more and more customers.

Sun Yao himself works quietly in a company. Although he is busy with work, he always cares about his friends' business.

One day, a mysterious food critic came to the town. He heard about Linglong and Xu Tingshan's snack bar and came to taste it. The critic praised their snacks highly and recommended them on his social media after returning.

As a result, the snack bar's business became extremely popular, and even diners from far away came to visit.

Sun Yao looked at the endless stream of customers in the store, and the busy but happy figures of Linglong and Xu Tingshan, and felt happy for them from the bottom of his heart. However, no one expected that a sudden fire would break the peace. The snack bar was burned beyond recognition, and Linglong and Xu Tingshan fell into despair.

But Sun Yao did not let them give up. He took out his savings of many years and helped his friend to renovate the shop. With everyone's joint efforts, the snack bar reopened and the business was more prosperous than before.
