A life of two souls traveling through time

Just after the Lantern Festival, Mu Liang bid farewell to his adoptive parents and prepared to return to the capital, Liangdu, but this time he was accompanied by Li Yunye and Anyun. After seeing his son Li Yunye's progress, Li Xingyuan decided to cultivate him with all his heart, so he planned to let his son, who had never been far away, follow Mu Liang to the capital to learn how to do business and see the world.

Jiang Siyao was not opposed to going to the capital. Firstly, she was really tired of staying in Qile City for so long, and she also wanted to see the outside world and go to the capital of Jingsong Kingdom to broaden her horizons. Secondly, she and Mu Liang had a similar sentiment and had a very pleasant conversation these days. Although he was her brother in name only, Jiang Siyao had already relied on him as her own brother. She was of course willing to follow her brother and learn how to do business.

Two carriages were parked outside the Li Mansion, and a crowd of people were seeing Li Yunye and Mu Liang off. Among the crowd, Mrs. Li was the one who was most worried about her son. She grabbed Li Yunye's hand and cried softly:

"It's a long journey, and you have never been far away since you were a child. You must listen to your brother's words when you go to the capital this time, and don't play around outside. I am worried about you..."

"Mother, don't cry. I have remembered all your instructions. I will listen to Brother Muliang and will not let you worry." Without waiting for Mrs. Li to finish, Li Yunye interrupted her with a smile even though he was impatient. Since yesterday, Mrs. Li has been repeating these words in front of him non-stop, and his ears are almost callused.

"Bandits are rampant in the north. You must keep a low profile and don't stay on the road too long." Li Xingyuan, who had been silent the whole time, did not want to show his concern and reluctance for his son in front of others. So while Li Yunye was comforting Mrs. Li, he called Mu Liang and Anyun aside and gave them a few words of advice.

After Li Yunye and Madam Li finished talking, Butler Fang and Shopkeeper Yuan came forward to say goodbye to the young master and said a few words of comfort to Madam Li.

"I am leaving now, and father must take care of himself too." Before leaving, Li Yunye came to his father Li Xingyuan and bowed solemnly.

The son in front of him became more sensible and well-behaved. Li Xingyuan, with a serious face, could no longer hold back. His eyes were red and he wanted to say something but stopped. Finally, he raised his hand and patted his son's shoulders twice, nodded, and all his words were there.

The carriage finally slowly left Qile City. Jiang Siyao turned around and looked at Qile City which was getting farther and farther away from her. She felt reluctant to leave. Everything that had happened since she appeared in Qile City was replayed in her mind. Although there were thrilling and sad moments, what she felt most was comfort and warmth.

"At most one year. I will bring you back in one year." Seeing the sadness in Li Yunye's eyes, Mu Liang patted his shoulder and comforted him in a gentle voice.

"Brother Mu Liang, is the capital city fun?" But after turning around, Li Yunye returned to his usual heartless self and asked Mu Liang curiously.

"It's fun, more fun than Qile City." Mu Liang was stunned for a long time before he reacted to Li Yunye's sudden change and curved his handsome eyebrows.

"Really? Can you tell me about it?" Hearing that it was more interesting than Qile City, Li Yunye couldn't wait to learn more.

"it is good."

Anyway, the journey was long, and Mu Liang took the time to introduce to Li Yunye in detail all the delicious food and fun things in Liangdu, the capital of Jingsong State. Compared to the boring business, eating, drinking and having fun made Li Yunye very interested. He didn't even fall asleep along the way, and kept chasing his brother Mu Liang to ask questions.

If you want to reach the capital Liangdu as quickly as possible, you have to pass through Chaoyun City. Since Chaoyun City is a famous weapons city, there are all kinds of people in the city, most of whom are from the underworld, so the public security is extremely unstable. Most merchants would rather take a detour than take risks. In order not to attract attention, Mu Liang deliberately found an inn with poor business. Before entering the city, Li Yunye followed Mu Liang's advice and changed into ordinary clothes, and pretended to be a servant of Mu Liang together with An Yun.

Two carriages stopped in front of a simple inn called "There is a Broken Inn". The three men and two coachmen entered the inn in a low-key manner. As the inn was deserted and there were no customers, the owner took a nap at the counter. Li Yunye looked around and looked at the dirty and haphazard shop in front of him and wondered: How could such a shop survive?

"Ahem, boss, are there any rooms available?" Mu Liang knocked lightly on the counter and smiled humbly.

"Yes, there are plenty!" The boss was a fat young man with an greasy face. He was not annoyed by being woken up. He just stretched slowly and yawned, "How many rooms do you want?"

"Two rooms."

After hearing the answer, the innkeeper opened his eyes wide and looked at the five people in front of him and asked, "Two rooms for five people?"

"It's just that we are short of travel expenses. There's nothing we can do about it." Mu Liang said, lowering his head in a humble manner.

"That's right. If you have money, who would come to my shabby inn? Please go upstairs." The innkeeper then stood up and muttered, leading the five people to go upstairs. Suddenly, he found Li Yunye behind Mu Liang and his eyes lit up: "This delicate skin and tender flesh..." As he spoke, one hand moved restlessly to touch Li Yunye's face. Seeing this, Mu Liang and An Yun hurriedly protected Li Yunye behind them. Li Yunye was so scared that he cursed in his heart: Pervert! Disgusting!

"Boss, are you still doing business?" Mu Liang's eyebrows were curved, but his voice became cold.

"Ahem, it's a misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding. I didn't mean anything else. I just haven't seen anyone as handsome as you in a long time, and I couldn't help myself... But everyone, don't worry, I'm a normal man." Looking at the alert expressions of the five guests in front of him, the innkeeper waved his hands to explain.

Mu Liang ignored the explanation of the innkeeper, but still smiled and asked him to lead the way. The innkeeper did not dare to talk nonsense and took the guest to the second floor. In front of the two adjacent rooms, Mu Liang arranged for the two drivers to sleep in one room, and he, his brother and An Yun to sleep in another room. In order to spend the night safely, they had to make do with this. After the rooms were divided, An Yun took the lead in pushing open the door in front of him. A musty smell came straight to him. Li Yunye was almost dumbfounded when he looked at the dusty guest room. How could this be an inn?

"Hehe, my inn has not been occupied for a long time, so some dust is inevitable. If you mind, just clean it yourselves, and I will charge you less for your room." Seeing the disgust on the faces of several guests, the innkeeper smiled awkwardly.

"Brother Mu Liang, do we have to stay in this shabby inn?" After Mu Liang sent the innkeeper downstairs, Li Yunye couldn't help but complain to his brother. He really didn't understand why he was so low-key that anyone who didn't know would think he was the emperor on a secret visit.

"I'm sorry, Yunye. For your safety, I have to endure this here for one night. I'll apologize to you when we get to Liangdu." Seeing his brother frowning, Mu Liang felt guilty, but he has always been cautious and would rather take precautions than make unnecessary efforts.

"What did Brother Mu Liang say? I don't blame you, it's just..." Although Li Yunye disliked the inn, he had no intention of blaming Mu Liang.

Before Li Yunye could finish speaking, Mu Liang turned his head and gave An Yun a look, and An Yun turned around, closed the door, and stood guard outside.

"The Chaoyun City is a mixed bag, with bandits everywhere. Kidnapping and ransom incidents happen frequently, and even the city government can't do anything about it. As the young master of a famous Li family in Jiangnan, you must be more cautious and low-key." Since An Yun was outside, there was no need to worry about anyone eavesdropping, so Mu Liang whispered to comfort Li Yunye.

When the timid Li Yunye heard that Chaoyun City was so dangerous, his disdain disappeared and he was left with only fear and worry. Fortunately, he had his smart brother Mu Liang and the skilled An Yun by his side.
