Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

Li Hao said, "Master Wu Liao, I have long admired you. Please take good care of me in the future."

Li Shimin walked back and forth: "Secret Guard Wu Liao usually won't show up unless there's something going on."

Xiaoyu smiled and said, "We all understand that the Secret Guard carries a heavy responsibility and won't appear unless necessary. He's like a shadow hidden in the darkness, silently guarding us without disturbing our lives. With him in the dark, we feel much more at ease."

Yuyu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, the Secret Guard is like a mysterious guardian angel. Usually we don't know where the master is, but once there is danger, the master will definitely appear like the wind to protect us."

Li Hao also echoed, "Indeed, this kind of silent protection is the most precious. The adults are hidden in the shadows, but they have eyes that see through everything. We just need to live our ordinary lives, knowing that the adults are protecting us from those unseen dangers."

Li Shimin nodded and smiled, "My secret guards are all loyal and brave men. If they don't take action, it's fine. But if they do, they will protect the whole area. Wu Liao is the best among them."

Wu Liao bowed slightly and remained silent. He was like the most solid barrier in the darkness.

Li Shimin waved his hand, and the secret guard Wu Liao retreated back into the dark.

"If Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao are not here, your family will go out, and the secret guard Wu Liao will also protect you secretly." He said slowly.

Xiaoyu listened and whispered to Yuyu and Lihao, "We all know that if the two young masters were not around, and we wanted to leave, Lord Wu Liao would definitely protect us from the shadows. The emperor's arrangement is truly thoughtful and will keep us safe."

Yuyu nodded obediently and agreed softly: "Mom is right. Lord Wu Liao may look stern, but he is very capable. With him following us, we can feel at ease when we go out."

Li Hao also sighed: "That's right, Master Wu Liao is loyal to his duties. We can't let down the emperor and Master's kindness. Be careful when you go out in the future and don't cause trouble for Master."

Wu Liao in the dark listened silently, expressionless, looking into the distance, continuing to pay attention to the surrounding situation, ready to fulfill his duty of protection at any time.

Li Shimin frowned slightly and said seriously, "If someone comes to cause trouble in the tavern and tries to pick a fight with you, don't panic."

"The secret guard Wu Liao that I have arranged will definitely show up to protect them. Wu Liao is a master that I have carefully selected. He is like a ghost, usually hiding in the dark. Once danger approaches, he will quickly appear. Those troublemakers are nothing but chickens and dogs in front of him."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao responded in unison, "Yes, Your Majesty. With the secret guard Wu Liao guarding them, we believe those scoundrels won't be able to do anything. The Yuyu family will be safe and sound. Your Majesty, rest assured."

After saying that, the two of them respectfully clasped their fists and bowed to Li Shimin, their eyes full of recognition and approval of the emperor's arrangements.

Yuyu blinked her big eyes and said to the secret guard seriously, "Sir, if we need to see you urgently in the future, we will put a broom at the door of the tavern. When you see the broom, you will know we are looking for you, and then come to the tavern to see what we want."

Xiaoyu also nodded: "But Yuyu, remember, don't put the broom at the door at other times. We only put it there when we have something to do."

The secret guard nodded slightly and replied in a low voice: "Okay, I'll remember that." There seemed to be a hint of imperceptible warmth in those cold eyes. After all, this was a special kind of trust.

Li Shimin stood up with a dignified look and waved his hand: "Return to the palace." His words were short and powerful, showing his imperial style.

Everyone knelt down and saluted, respectfully bidding the emperor farewell. Surrounded by the crowd, Li Shimin slowly walked out of the tavern, his gazes filled with awe.

After the emperor left, the atmosphere in the tavern seemed to be a little more relaxed, but there was also a hidden solemnity.

Yu Yu's family, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao sat around the table and talked in low voices.

Yuyu's eyes flashed with mystery, and she whispered, "Do you know? Only the five of us, plus the Emperor, know about this secret guard thing. This is a big secret between us."

Xiaoyu nodded gently, her expression serious. "That's right. This kind of thing can't be spread outside. Once the secret guard's identity is exposed, it will be dangerous, not only for the secret guard, but also for us."

She looked at Cheng Chumo and Qin Huai and said, "My two lords, you must be very careful and don't let anything slip out inadvertently."

Cheng Chumo patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Huaidao and I know what's going on. This secret guard matter is of great importance, we won't say anything careless."

"I just didn't expect that the emperor would be so attentive to your family and specially arrange secret guards to protect you."

Qin Huaidao also echoed: "Yes, it shows that the emperor values ​​you. However, this also means that there may be many eyes watching us in the dark, so we must act more cautiously."

Li Hao frowned and said with some worry, "I'm just afraid that one day someone with ulterior motives might find out. After all, these secret guards are always protecting us in the dark, so it's inevitable that they'll reveal their true intentions."

Yuyu blinked and said, "Brother, let's just be careful. Besides, the secret guards are so powerful, they shouldn't be discovered easily."

"We also have to cooperate well, just like the broom signal we agreed on. Only we know it. This is also just in case."

Cheng Chumo smiled slightly: "Yuyu is right, we should all be smarter. And I think we can also pay more attention to the movements around us. If we find any suspicious people snooping, we can prepare in advance."

Qin Huaidao continued, "That's right. When we go out in the future, we need someone to take care of us. We can't always rely on the secret guards. We have to be able to protect ourselves."

Xiaoyu nodded in agreement: "Master Huaidao is right. We can't cause trouble for the Secret Guard. From now on, we should visit each other more often and help each other. If anything happens, we can deal with it together."

Yuyu said excitedly, "That's great! From now on, we'll be like a small group. We can share fun things together, and if there's any danger, we can fight together."

Cheng Chumo joked, "Haha, then Yuyu, you have to stay close to us and don't run around. If we lose you, the Secret Guard will come after us."

Yuyu pouted: "Humph, I won't run around. I'm sensible. I'll even help keep an eye out for any strange people around."

Yu Yu couldn't help yawning and covered her mouth with her hand.

Xiaoyu: "Yuyu, you are sleepy again"

Seeing this, Cheng Chumo joked that she was a lazy bum.

Yuyu rolled her eyes at him and whispered, "No, I didn't sleep well last night."

Everyone smiled knowingly, but the laughter was very light.

They always remembered that the secret guard's affairs had to be kept secret, and even in this relaxing moment, they dared not be careless in the slightest.
