Traveling back to ancient times to get rich

Grandpa Lu has always been a straightforward man; he'll boldly express whatever he's thinking, unlike that Liu Yufeng who's so hesitant and secretive. Oh dear, how could someone as experienced as Grandpa Lu not see through it? That Liu Yufeng only stayed at their place for two or three days, but the moment he saw the girl, his eyes practically popped out of their sockets. He was like a hungry wolf eyeing its prey, his eyes practically glowing with lust—a truly pathetic sight! Grandpa Lu waved his hand and said loudly, "Little girl, little boy, in my opinion, it's probably best if you two take charge of all the affairs in this house. Hehe, to be honest, I've been craving the delicious food you two cook for a long time! So I was thinking, how about we travel together for a while? Of course, that boy Liu Yufeng will also come along. What do you think? However, Yufeng is currently wanted by the authorities. If you have any concerns, that's alright. We can go out of the city first and wait for you there!"

Ye Qingchen held Hong Qigong in the highest esteem, considering him a legendary figure in the martial arts world. The old man before her now seemed to possess a similar air to Hong Qigong, suggesting he was also a highly skilled and unassuming master. His generous offer to travel with them was a perfect guarantee of protection for Gu Changfeng. Therefore, Ye Qingchen spoke frankly, "Grandpa, we're all open and honest people, so let's not hide anything. To be frank, Gu Changfeng and I are indeed a bit special, and you and Brother Liu don't seem like ordinary people either. Right now, we desperately need protection. If you two could look after us, what's a few delicious dishes for us?" In truth, Ye Qingchen knew perfectly well that Liu Yufeng wasn't after the food, but she couldn't betray her friend. As for whether she could win over Aunt Dong, that was beyond her control. That said, Aunt Dong is now young and beautiful, with a graceful figure and the elegant demeanor of a lady from a prominent family. If it weren't for someone interfering back then, she would probably have married into a wealthy and powerful family in the capital long ago, becoming a noble princess or a prince's wife!

Old Master Lu thought to himself, "This little girl is truly clever and perceptive!" He began to carefully consider their names, constantly recalling relevant information in his mind. Then, he thought of the Seventh Prince, who was about to return to the capital, and in an instant, he realized who the person in front of him was.

Looking back on the Gu family's path to the throne, it was fraught with twists and turns. After the death of the elder brother, his seemingly dull and clumsy son ascended the throne. However, another son was even more clueless, leading to the tragic downfall of the Dong family. And then there were the sons of that foolish emperor—from the crown prince down, each one was treacherous and ruthless. Especially the crown prince, who not only wielded immense power but was also extremely vicious! Worse still, the influence of their maternal relatives was so vast it could obscure the sky. Although the foolish emperor was somewhat wary of this, he completely failed to understand how to balance the various forces. In short, there wasn't a single reliable figure in the Gu family's royal family.

At this moment, Old Master Lu turned his gaze to Gu Changfeng and Ye Qingchen. Seeing that they had saved so many lives, he couldn't help but feel gratified. Judging from their actions, these two young people were undoubtedly kind, upright, and compassionate. Thinking of this, Old Master Lu secretly resolved that even though he was only Gu's brother, he had a responsibility and obligation to protect these two children with all his might until they successfully ascended the throne and achieved great things!

With a broad smile, Old Master Lu said, "In that case, this old man will accompany you all, hahaha! But before that, I wonder if we need to leave the city first?"

Ye Qingchen smiled slightly and replied confidently, "Grandpa Lu, don't worry, this little matter is no problem for me. Rest assured, I am an expert in disguise, and I will definitely be able to disguise Brother Liu so that those people will not be able to spot the flaws at all! In my opinion, we can set off tomorrow morning. In addition, we need to arrange some people to stay in this mansion to guard it, just in case. As for our destination, it will be Licheng."

Just then, everyone sprang into action, quickly gathering their belongings. The previously bustling and noisy scene instantly became busy and orderly, with everyone focused on completing their tasks. In no time, everyone was ready and began heading towards the house to rest.

Dong Nanxi gently took Xiaoyue'er's soft little hand, and the two walked into the room together. He gently coaxed Xiaoyue'er to sleep, his eyes full of care.

On the other side, Gu Changfeng and Ye Qingchen walked side by side towards the west room of the main house. They chatted quietly about the interesting things that had happened during the day, their faces beaming with relaxed and joyful smiles. After entering the room, they quickly made their beds and lay down, ready to drift off into a sweet dream.

The east room, specially reserved for the master, Old Master Lu, was exceptionally quiet and peaceful. At this moment, Old Master Lu was probably recalling the day's events. How interesting! Because Master Liu had come to this area, he'd forgotten about Master Liu because of the delicious food, and now the food and Master Liu were together. Because of this meal, he'd discovered the real Seventh Prince and Seventh Princess, and these two children were so kind! It was all fate!

Meanwhile, Liu Yufeng went to the west wing alone. He sat quietly by the bed, gazing at the bright moonlight outside the window, his mind filled with countless thoughts. He finally had an excuse to stay and continue pursuing Miss Dong. After some time, he slowly lay down, closed his eyes, and allowed his weary body and mind a moment of relaxation.

Finally, Dong Yijia walked lightly into the east wing. She gently closed the door, shutting out all the noise from the outside world. Then, she went to the dressing table, removed her hair ornaments, and combed her silky long hair. Looking at her now younger face, who could imagine that she had once been a dying old woman? Ye Qingchen had bought her some better hair ornaments today. Touching the jade pendant, she wondered if she could pursue him. In this quiet night, she enjoyed her own peaceful moment.
