“Godmother, Shuisheng still has work to do, so he can’t accompany you. This glass of wine is Shuisheng’s toast to you.”

Xiao Zeyu knelt in front of his godmother’s grave again and poured a glass of wine over the grave. He was so busy that he didn’t even stop to sweep the grave.

Xiao Zeyu stood up and patted Zhong Yong’s shoulder,

“Zhong Yong, Big Brother will go and handle some business first. Please wait for me at Aunt Li’s house. Let’s have a good drink.”

“Big Brother, you can go and do your work!”

Zhong Yong quickly nodded. When he thought of being able to follow his eldest brother in the future, his heart was at ease. He no longer felt lonely, and he no longer had wild thoughts about accompanying his mother.

After Su Qing paid her respects to her godmother, she went to Aunt Li’s house to help cook. She said that she was helping her cook, but in fact, she was the head chef. The others were all helping her. Everyone knew that Su Qing cooked well. It had been long since they had eaten her cooking, so they were waiting anxiously!

Xiao Zeyu followed the soldiers out of the city. When he saw the person who wanted to see him, he smiled and immediately dismounted to welcome him.”

“Third Prince, how have you been?”

“Brother Xiao, how have you been? I heard the Northern Barbarians are attacking Mo City, so I brought my troops here to help.”

Yelii Chun was wearing the military uniform of the Tartan Kingdom. On both sides of his leather felt hat was a fine fox tail. His long eyebrows reached his temples, and his brow bone was prominent. His eyes were sharp, like an eagle’s, and his facial features were distinct. His thin lips were tightly pursed, revealing the majesty of an emperor.

In just a short period, his temperament had undergone an earth-shattering change. He had hidden his essence and accumulated his strength in the past, but now he was showing his sharp edge. He no longer had to appear mediocre deliberately.

“Thank you, Third Prince.”

Xiao Zeyu was very touched. He didn’t even ask for help, but Yelu Chun rushed to help after hearing that Mo City was surrounded. He was grateful for this brotherhood.

“Brother Xiao, you don’t have to be so polite. When my Tartan was in trouble, thanks to you and Su Qing’s help, we were able to resolve it.”

Yelu Chun’s laughter was bright and clear, and he was in high spirits. His eyes looked hopefully at Mo City. He hadn’t seen Xiaoying for a long time. He was busy with government affairs and didn’t have time to come. When he heard Mo City was in trouble, he immediately thought of Xiaoying. He feared she would be in danger and had sent troops to rescue her.

When he arrived outside Mo City, he saw that the city gate was newly repaired and the city wall was still damaged. His heart fell to the bottom of the valley. Fortunately, he saw the flag of the Xiao Family Army waving in the wind. He was relieved after confirming that the Northern Barbarians had not breached

Mo City.

“Please come in.”

Xiao Zeyu was even more grateful to Yelu Chun for speaking like this, and he hurriedly invited him into the city for a gathering. As for the army Yelu Chun had brought with him, they could only set up camp outside the city to rest. This wasn’t something that Xiao Zeyu had suggested, but Yelu Chun had taken the initiative to have his soldiers stay outside the city.

Otherwise, if he brought the army into Mo City, people would misunderstand that he came with ill intentions.

“Brother Yelu is in luck today. My wife personally cooked a table of delicacies.

Let’s have a good drink.”

Yelii Chun had come from afar and had to endure the wind and the open air. Xiao Zeyu wanted him to stay for a meal and sent his soldiers to deliver food to the Tartan soldiers outside the city, fulfilling the role of a host.

“Is that so? Aiya, what a coincidence. I haven’t eaten Su Qing’s food in a long time… Madam? Are Brother Xiao and Miss Su already married?”

Yelu Chun smiled as he agreed. Suddenly, he looked at Xiao Zeyu in surprise. The last time they met, Xiao Zeyu and Su Qing hadn’t gotten married. ‘How did he address Su Qing as his wife in such a short time?’

“Yes, Qing’er and I are already married.”

Xiao Zeyu couldn’t help but smile at the mention of Su Qing. His eyes were filled with happiness and pride.

Being able to marry Su Qing was a blessing from his previous life.

“Aiya, congratulations, congratulations, why didn’t brother Xiao send a letter to this little brother? If this little brother knew that Brother Xiao was getting married, this little brother would have come to congratulate him no matter what.”

Yelu Chun cupped his fists and congratulated him. Su Qing was an extraordinary woman, and Brother Xiao was a genius. The two of them were a match made in heaven.

Xiao Zeyu laughed heartily and said to Yelu Chun,

“Haha, there’s no time like the present. Today is Brother Yelu’s celebration for Qing’er and me.”

■■No, Brother Xiao’s wedding is such a joyous occasion, this little brother must send a congratulatory gift. How about this: I’ll stay in Mo City for a few days, order my subordinates to return, and prepare the congratulatory gift.¹

Yelu Chun took this matter very seriously. He finally had an excuse to stay in Mo City. Thinking of seeing Xiaoying every day, Yelu Chun couldn’t suppress the joy on his face, as if he were the one getting married.

“Haha, good, brother Yelu, I appreciate your generosity.”

Xiao Zeyu smiled and agreed when he saw Yelu Chun’s hospitality. He immediately ordered people to clean up the room at the courier station so that he could send Yelu Chun over to stay after dinner.

Xiao Zeyu brought Yelu Chun to Aunt Li’s house and told him about the situation on the way.”

“Today, it’s our Aunt Li from the Peach Blossom Cove’s treat. I’ve already agreed to go. I would like to invite the Third Prince to experience the life of the common people of the Central Plains with me.

Because he was going to Aunt Li’s house, Xiao Zeyu had to make it clear beforehand, lest Yelu Chun felt he was too slow.

The main reason was that he had already promised Aunt Li, and it would not be good if he did not go. However, he was worried that Yelu Chun’s identity as a prince would not allow him to go to an ordinary person’s house, so he asked for his opinion in advance.

“Haha, good. Yelu Chun is more than happy to do so.”

Yelu Chun laughed out loud. He had never been to a commoner’s house in the Central Plains. He just didn’t know if Xiaoying would be at Aunt Li’s house.

He had come all the way here and was worried about her. It would be a pity if he couldn’t see her.

Seeing that Yelu Chun showed no dislike, Xiao Zeyu heaved a sigh of relief. He pointed at Aunt Li’s house, which was emitting smoke, and said to Yelu Chun, “That’s good. Aunty Li’s house is in front.”

“Alright.”

Yelu Chun couldn’t suppress his longing for Xiaoying and quickened his pace towards Aunt Li’s house, even leaving Xiao Zeyu behind.

When Xiao Zeyu saw how anxious he was, he thought Yelu Chun was hungry! He also quickened his pace.

They had just reached Aunt Li’s door when they saw Su Qing and Zhong Yong coming afar. Xiao Zeyu stopped in his tracks and said to Yelu Chun,

“Wait a moment, Qing’er and the others are back.

Hearing Xiao Zeyu’s words, Yelu Chun hurriedly looked at the crowd. He immediately saw Xiaoying, whom he had longed for day and night, among so many people.

She was wearing a light-colored cotton robe today. Her hair was tied up, and her face was pale, without makeup. She looked depressed. She lowered her head and looked bitter. Her eyes were slightly swollen and were red and teary. Yelu Chun’s heart suddenly clenched. ‘Who was it? Who made Xiaoying cry?

He looked at Xiao Zeyu with a reproachful gaze. ‘How could he not care about his sister?’

Xiao Zeyu did not notice the reproachful look in Yelu Chun’s eyes. He walked over to Su Qing and smiled at her, “Qing’er, look who’s here.”

Su Qing had already seen Yelu Chun before they met up with them. Seeing him arrive in military attire, he guessed he was here to help Mo Cheng.

“Third Prince, how have you been?”

Su Qing smiled and greeted Yelu Chun. Hearing Su Qing’s words, Xiaoying recovered from her daze and looked up at Yelu Chun in disbelief..
