"But I get itchy all over after a few days of not practicing," Qin Susu complained.

Upon hearing this, Qin's mother gave Qin Susu a displeased sidelong glance.

"What's so good about girls practicing martial arts? It's all about fighting and killing all day long, nobody likes that."

"Why wouldn't anyone like me? Xiaoyan and Ling'er both like me." Qin Susu's narcissistic words earned her mother another sidelong glance, and then she left with a smile.

Since the Kamitsu Coup

After a brief period of shock, the people have returned to their normal lives.

And the Wing Prince's Mansion,

The Wing King was imprisoned for more than two months.

Two months later, he was released from prison.

However, he was severely punished and imprisoned in the Prince Yi's mansion, forbidden from leaving for five years.

This verdict represents Li Zheng's greatest effort.

For the sake of his granddaughter, he put aside all past grievances and reconciled with His Majesty.

He originally thought he would never let go of his prejudices in his lifetime.

But for his granddaughter, he gave up everything.

He stayed in Shangjin for more than two months, especially for his granddaughter.

For the past two months,

He Jinran and Li Sisi were always by each other's side.

Li Zheng experienced the joys of family life ahead of time.

Two months later,

Li Sisi accompanied He Jinran to the palace to meet the emperor.

He was personally bestowed the title by His Majesty.

Princess Sisi!

Princess Sisi, He Jinyu, has a completely different identity from before.

He Jinyu accepted her princess status.

Her only request was to plead with her father, the emperor, not to disturb her original life.

He Lin dotes on his daughter and grants her everything.

Although He Lin felt jealous of the father-daughter relationship between Yu'er and He Xuan,

However, he could not change the fact that his daughter was raised by He Xuan himself.

In addition, Li Sisi has another request.

That was to go home with my maternal grandfather to visit my birth mother.

This is the first thing she should do as a daughter.

He Lin agreed to this without hesitation.

But the prerequisite is...

He also went along, and the Crown Prince acted as regent.

Upon hearing this, He Jinran was filled with protest.

On what grounds?

“Father, I am not qualified enough to shoulder this heavy responsibility.”

"Father trusts Jin'er and will surely succeed. Besides, with your father's assistance, Father can rest assured." He Lin's words silenced He Jinran.

Let He Jinran...

Grit your teeth and swallow it down.

He was the one who first told his grandfather that he wanted to go with his sister to visit their mother.

And Li Zheng,

He clearly did not want to travel with His Majesty.

That's enough. Haven't they already let go of everything between them?

Back at the Li family home, He Jinran was visibly upset because his father wouldn't let him return to his hometown.

Seeing his condition, Li Zheng learned the reason and went to comfort him.

"Xiao Ran, you are the Crown Prince, bearing the heavy responsibility of the nation. You can no longer act recklessly as before."

“I know, Grandpa.” What could He Jinran say?

All he could say was that his father trusted him too much.

He had only been in Shanghai for less than a year.

He knew that everyone born as a human being carries a mission.

Putting aside his case, everyone living in this world has their own responsibilities and obligations.

If ordinary farmers don't earn money to support their families, how will they survive?

He gave Li Zheng a bright smile, indicating that he accepted his father's request.

Looking at my grandfather again now, he asked earnestly,

"Grandpa, can you, Grandma, and your two younger uncles live together in Shangjin?"

Li Zheng shook his head, "Your mother is still in Lingnan Village."

One sentence was enough to stop He Jinran from trying to persuade him.

If possible, I would have brought my maternal grandparents back to Shangjin long before my father met my mother.

He knew that his grandparents were used to farm life.

Not to mention his maternal grandparents, even he himself misses the carefree life in Lingnan Village.

“But I want to see Grandpa more often,” He Jinran said sullenly.

"Where's Grandma? Don't you miss her?" After not seeing her for several months, Li Zheng missed his wife and children dearly.

"I want to too." However, He Jinran had always felt that his maternal grandmother was not close to him.

Every time she held him, she called out his mother's name.

...

On a hot summer day, He Jinyu bid farewell to his godfather and Su Yao.

He Lin entrusted all matters of state to He Jinran and Gu Qian.

Riding in two ordinary carriages, Li Zheng and his grandson embarked on their journey to Baiyang, amidst He Jinran's envious gaze.

On the road,

He Lin sat alone in a carriage, glancing at the carriages behind him from time to time, feeling quite uneasy.

God knows how much he longed to spend time with his daughter.

However, the daughter is with her grandfather at that moment.

The grandfather and grandson were completely unaware of He Lin's true feelings.

Inside the other carriage,

As soon as Li Sisi got into the carriage, she sat by the window, lifted the curtain to look at the scenery outside, and imagined the scene of her meeting with her grandmother.

"Grandpa, will Grandma not like me?"

"No," Li Zheng said confidently.

Grandma will definitely like you.

………………

In the Li family compound, Gu Qian sat in the empty courtyard, letting out a long sigh.

"Master, seeing the smile on your face makes me very happy."

In the blink of an eye, Qiu Yan, supporting her seven-month pregnant belly, walked towards us, followed by Feng Hua Liu Sha.

"When Master's wife sees Princess Sisi, she will be very happy."

…………

This summer seems to be much hotter than in previous years.

In a corner of Bihu Lake, Qiu Yan and her family rowed and played in the lotus-filled water, immersing themselves in the lively scene.

Sitting on the boat beside them were Qin Susu and Liang Yuchen.

Qin Susu looked at Qiu Yan and the others with envy.

They were having a great time.

Looking at the two of them on their boat again...

"Liang Yuchen, who told you to follow me?"

Liang Yuchen rowed silently without saying a word, so that Qin Susu would not say anything more.

Suddenly, I felt nauseous.

Qin Susu was furious.

"Liang Yuchen, could you row a little slower? I'm getting seasick."

"Okay," Liang Yuchen replied, slowing the boat's movement.

On the other boat, Gu Qian and Qiu Xu were in charge of rowing, Qiu Yan and her sister sat in the middle, and He Jinran sat at the bow, counting the beautiful lotus flowers one by one.

Beside him was his beloved dog, Blackie.

He Jinran looked at the black girl,

Sigh, I miss his lightning.

"Blackie, when you grow up, will you leave me like lightning?"

Qiu Yan: "Birth, aging, illness, and death are the laws of nature."

"But all I want is for it to live as long as I do." He Jinran's feelings for lightning were something others could not truly understand.

They were his childhood playmates, so much so that he could never forget them.

I had originally thought I would never raise a dog again.

"Xiao Ran, can we change the name?" Qiu Ling'er felt that this name was really not in line with the temperament of a majestic and strong black dog.

“Our Blackie likes it.” He Jinran patted Blackie’s head, and Blackie cooperated by raising her chin.

"It sounds beautiful, so beautiful." Qiu Ling'er chuckled twice, then her expression changed as she turned her head.

She touched her sister's sleeve.

"Sister, look—"

Qiu Yan turned her eyes in response.

Behind them, several small boats were clearly visible.

The first one is none other than Sun Wan.

Qiu Yan stared in disbelief... These women had actually chased them all the way to the lake?

Gu Qian, you really are irresistibly charming...
