However, Bi Zhenye felt that the Princess was weak and weak, and he, as a man, felt tired from the bumpy journey. Furthermore, the delicate woman, after thinking about it again and again, decided to continue at his normal speed, and would rest when it was night, not being able to make it to the next town, he was not in a rush to walk a few more miles, and would only leave after daybreak.

With the guards by their side, the two of them did not say anything, but Little Qing's considerate care made Little Qing feel it.

Every time he went to a place to rest, he would find a local woman to take care of him, making Little Qing, who was amongst a group of men, feel a lot more comfortable.

Finally, when they were still a day away from the capital, they caught up to the main force.

Bi Zhenye was very far away when he saw someone riding on a large horse waiting for him. He led the group of Princess and slowly approached them, only then did he see that it was definitely the little General Shen.

He and Shen Yun greeted each other with a cupped fist. Little Qing stuck her head out of the carriage and called out his big brother. Then, Shen Yun spurred his horse over and wrapped his arms around his little sister's waist.

As she sat in his brother's embrace, she was able to look straight into Bi Zhenye's eyes, which were on horseback. After their gazes intersected for a short while, Shen Qing was led by his brother to the main group. Bi Zhenye followed behind leisurely, the only sound being the hooves of the horses, she could not see anything else.

”It's been hard on you.” Shen Yun said, ”Little Qing has grown up, but this is the first time she has been alone outside, don't blame your sister-in-law for leaving you behind.”

”Yes.” Little Qing nodded, but then subconsciously shook her head, ”It can't be considered lonely. There was an uncle who cooked very well, a gentle and beautiful wife, and a cute little doll in the inn.”

Shen Yun laughed: ”Aunt likes the kids from the other family, the two little demon kings in my family won't agree.”

Little Qing replied, ”I brought so many things for the Little Demon Kings. I eat things they haven't seen before.”

His brother suddenly asked: ”Little Qing, that Bi Zhenye, what's going on?”

His sister was stunned and after hesitating for a while, she only asked, ”What …” ”What's going on?”

When she was almost in front of the emperor, Little Qing could not help but ask: ”Brother, would you dislike your brother-in-law's family background?”

Shen Yun said: As long as I treat you well, as long as it's someone who cares about you, then everything will be fine.

Little Qing nodded, but Shen Yun continued to speak, ”But being nice to you, no matter who you are, they will be nice to you. Big Brother does not want you to be interested in a person who is mediocre and does nothing for you. Otherwise, when one day the feelings fade, the rest of the time will be difficult to bear. Who could guarantee that after ten or twenty years, the Shen family would be unshakable? Little Qing, your brother doesn't care about your future brother-in-law's background, but you have to be someone with ambition. That's the only way to protect you when you're in danger. ”

”I know, I think so myself.” As Shen Qing spoke, she could not help but stick her head out and look behind him.

”What are you looking at? Your lover is behind you?” Shen Yun laughed out loud, but his sister was embarrassed enough to the point that her neck was red.

The proud and reserved Little Princess didn't speak at all. After that, he met the Emperor, the Queen and his sister-in-law. She only told them about his experiences in the inn.

When Bi Zhenye was mentioned, it was similarly indifferent. The calm and dignified manner that was deep within their bones made the Empress and the First Princess speak to each other urgently in private, ”It looks like if Bi Zhenye doesn't speak, she won't speak at all.”

In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed since the Xiaowan returned to the inn.

In just these ten days, Ling Chaofeng had gone out three times, and he had always rushed back as fast as he could. The Xiaowan felt that it was hard work for him on the road, but he said that only when he returned home would he be able to sleep soundly and return.

When he returned today, he brought back news that the Empress had successfully returned to the capital, that the Princess had arrived safely, and that Susu was curious about the happy occasion. Ling Chaofeng shook his head.

Susu smiled at Xiaowan and him, ”I really want to show you the appearance of that pair of people. I wonder if they will still be like this after we become husband and wife due to fate.”

Xiaowan wasn't familiar with Princess, but she was familiar with him now. She thought that with Princess having such a cute and straightforward sister-in-law, a good marriage couldn't be wrong.

Within the capital, Ershan gradually found out about the happenings of the past few days, but the true reason of the Emperor's death in the mountains was not announced. Because Bi Zhenye did not follow him into the mountains, he did not know much.

It wasn't until the Ling Xiao Inn sent him a letter to his home, reminding him to be more cautious when mentioning Ling Chaofeng's offense against the Emperor, that Ershan realized that his brother had almost committed the crime of deceiving the Sovereign.

Naturally, this brother was Ling Chaofeng, but Ershan's other brother, Ershan knew that he had been alone with the Princess for a few days. They had met outside the palace, and Bi Zhenye asked his grandmother if she was fine, to pay respects to Lian Yi's body, but Ershan smiled and asked: ”Lian Yi is very curious, what are you doing with the Princess in my inn.”

Bi Zhenye was greatly embarrassed, and replied without answering the question: ”I slept in the room where you came from, you really have a lot of books, did you get all of them from the Manager Ling? You don't mind if I take a few, do you? ”
