After traveling through time, I became a princess in ancient times

In the corridor of Dongguan, Liu Qingyun's brows were condensed with a bit of solemnity, and he said seriously: "Since the prince has seen the past in the soul-tracing mirror, do you have any plans for the future?"

Ren Chenxi stood in the corridor, his deep eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the darkness and look directly into the unknown future in the distance.

He turned his head to look at City Lord Liu beside him, and said with a heavy heart: "My father changed my fate so that I would not be killed by the traitor. Maybe there is something else behind my parents' death. If so, I will make the person behind it pay the price."

"Although the Emperor's Sword is the Emperor's sword, it cannot conceal the undercurrents of the royal family. If you want to confront the royal family head-on, the road ahead will surely be filled with thorns and be extremely dangerous!"

"Lord Liu, now that the Emperor Sword has fallen into my hands, it is my destiny. I swear to use this sword to cut off all obstacles, even if the road ahead is a sea of fire and a mountain of swords."

Liu Qingyun put his hands behind his back and slowly walked to the corridor, as if weighing the weight of every word: "Although I don't care about worldly affairs, I swear to protect this piece of pure land in the city so that you can have a place to rely on. However, if you insist on returning, you will be alone in danger, and the wind and rain of Beiling may not be something you can withstand."

Ren Chenxi did not move, but just raised his hand slightly, and the scabbard of the Emperor's Sword shone with a cold light under the winter sun.

"I know this journey is dangerous, but as a descendant of the royal family, how can I abandon the people for my own safety? If I don't go back, what will happen to the people of Beiling? Even if the road ahead is full of thorns, I must take a bright path."

Xia Yurou, who was walking in front, was humming a lullaby. The little guy was gradually falling asleep in his mother's arms, with a sweet smile on his tender little face.

She turned around and looked at the prince with a solemn expression, and said softly: "I am your wife, Hanhan is your daughter, you are not allowed to leave us alone to face unpredictable dangers."

Ren Chenxi looked at Xia Yurou and the sleeping Hanhan affectionately, walked forward slowly, gently touched Hanhan's delicate cheek with his fingertips, his eyes full of reluctance to leave his daughter.

"Rou'er, how can I let you and Hanhan take risks?"

Xia Yurou met the prince's gaze with a firm look: "From the moment we got married, I was ready to go through thick and thin with you. We will be together through life and death, and never leave each other."

As she spoke, she gently hugged Hanhan a little tighter. The little one was still sleeping soundly in her mother's warm arms, as if the troubles in the outside world had nothing to do with her.

"Your Highness, your safety is what we mother and daughter are most concerned about. No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as our family of three is together, it will be the greatest strength. Beiling is not only your responsibility, but also our home. I, Xia Yurou, swear to fight alongside you, no matter it is through mountains of swords and seas of fire, or through storms and winds, I will not retreat."

Ren Chenxi's gaze lingered on Xia Yurou's determined face for a long time, and finally turned into a gentle smile.

He slowly reached out and gently held Xia Yurou's hand, their palms pressed together, conveying their determination without words.

"Rou'er, having you and Hanhan by my side is the greatest luck of my life. Since you have made up your mind, let's work together to protect the peace of the people of Beiling."

"The princess is a phoenix, so noble and extraordinary. Your Majesty, you are the reincarnation of the Dragon Emperor, so your majesty is inviolable. The dragon and the phoenix are auspicious signs, and have been auspicious since ancient times. If the two of you can communicate with each other, and use the power of the dragon and the phoenix to attack together, you may be able to open up a way out in this chaotic world and protect the peace of Beiling."

Liu Qingyun's words echoed in Xia Yurou and Ren Chenxi's hearts for a long time like morning bells and evening drums, as if they could see through the secrets of heaven.

"Your Highness, in addition to the undercurrent threat from the royal family, we must be more vigilant against Du Wenxuan. He is as cunning and vicious as a poisonous snake lurking in the abyss. Once the time is right, he will surely make a comeback. His wisdom and strategy should not be underestimated."

Xia Yurou's words were like a sharp blade in the cold wind, carrying an alertness that could not be ignored, and worry condensed between her brows.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qingyun's expression also became more serious. He looked up into the distance, as if he had penetrated through the layers of buildings and saw the invisible haze: "Yes, Du Wenxuan escaped from the Soul Tracing Mirror. Although I am a Grandmaster, I was unable to stop him. He has unique skills and a strong character. If he comes back in the future, he will be a big problem."

Ren Chenxi frowned and looked towards the setting sun in the sky. Under the afterglow, his figure looked particularly resolute.

"Du Wenxuan is a cunning rabbit with three burrows, and his traces are hard to find."

"Your Majesty, although we cannot predict the future, we can grasp the present. I will use my own way to collect all possible clues and make sure that Du Wenxuan has nowhere to hide."

Liu Qingyun smiled as if he had thought of something, and slowly said: "My Lord, Princess, the harmony of dragon and phoenix has been the highest harmony between heaven and earth since ancient times. Both of you have special fates. If you exchange ideas with each other, you may be able to comprehend the true meaning of martial arts in the confrontation and break through to the realm of Grandmaster."

Xia Yurou said playfully: "After I finish my period, I will definitely compete with you to see whether the Dragon Emperor's swordsmanship is more powerful or my Heavenly Phoenix Dance is more agile."

Ren Chenxi gently scratched the tip of her nose and said lovingly, "Okay, okay, then I'll wait and see."

Liu Qingyun coughed lightly, feeling embarrassed by the affection between the two, and then turned around to leave. His steps were deliberately hurried, and it seemed that even the wind under the corridor trembled slightly because of his movements, causing a few fallen leaves to spin and dance.

As he walked, he said, "I suddenly remembered that the city's defenses still need to be reinforced, so I won't disturb the prince and princess anymore."

After saying this, City Lord Liu was already a few steps away. His lonely back showed that he really had something important to do.

Looking at the city lord's quickly departing back, Ren Chenxi turned his gaze gently to Xia Yurou and asked puzzledly: "City Lord Liu is a peerless master, isn't that the best defense?"

Her cheeks were slightly red, her eyes were full of smiles, and she said lightly: "My silly prince, the city lord is just trying to avoid suspicion. This display of affection is so great that even the wind would be jealous."

Ren Chenxi suddenly understood, as if he had solved a small mystery in his heart. He patted his forehead lightly and said with a smile, "I told you, there is a grandmaster in Nandu, so why worry about the defense being solid? It was I who was confused."

Xia Yurou covered her mouth and chuckled. Her laughter was crisp and pleasant, with a warm power that seemed to melt the ice and snow in winter.

She looked down at the sleeping little Hanhan in her arms, stroked her soft hair, and said softly: "Hanhan, when you grow up, you must not be like your father, who occasionally makes some small mistakes. You must be like mother, smart and clever, and face any difficulties bravely, understand?"

Ren Chenxi gently held Xia Yurou in his arms, with Hanhan between them. Her little body was surrounded by her parents' warm embrace and she slept more soundly, occasionally mumbling in her sleep, with an innocent smile on her young face.

There was a sly love flashing in Xia Yurou's eyes, and she suddenly left a light kiss on the prince's cheek. At that moment, it seemed as if time had stopped.

Ren Chenxi touched the cheek that Rou'er had kissed with surprise, and smiled softly: "You are always so naughty."

"Your Majesty, do you know that I, Xia Yurou, am a god of war that the bad guys are terrified of in that distant land of China? Now that I'm married to you, I must not be too strong."

After saying that, she leaned her head against Ren Chenxi's broad chest. The two figures gradually lengthened in the afterglow of the setting sun, interweaving into a warm and beautiful picture.

Ren Chenxi gently stroked Rou'er's soft hair, as if he wanted to engrave this warmth from another world in his heart forever.
