At night, Xiao Tuantuan returned from outside the military camp.

She was carrying a small cloth bag containing ginseng she had taken out of her spatial storage; she had even specially selected one that had already been processed.

As Li Qishang emerged from the government affairs hall, he heard that the princess had already returned.

He rushed over and saw Xiao Tuantuan sitting in the room drinking tea, and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Tuantuan, where did you go?"

Little Tuantuan gestured towards the bundle on the table before saying, "Didn't I say I brought ginseng for Jingyu? I'll go get it."

Li Qishang was speechless. How long had she been carrying ginseng?

How come he didn't know?

"Did you bring ginseng with you when we set off?" Li Qishang finally couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

Xiao Tuantuan changed the subject before saying, "Yes, you've never carried my bag, have you?"

Li Qishang: Why does this sound ambiguous?

"Oh, then it was my fault. How would you like to punish me, my wife?"

As he spoke, he moved his handsome face closer to Xiao Tuantuan, who immediately raised her hand and pushed his face away.

"What's all the fuss about? There are other people here!" Xiao Tuantuan said.

Li Qishang became even more affectionate, reaching out to hook Xiao Tuantuan's neck and pulling her into his arms, letting her feel his masculine presence!

This is Xiao Tuantuan's favorite dragon aura!

He has her favorite scent on him!

Little Tuantuan broke free from Li Qishang's grasp, poked her head out, and said, "You covered my nose, how annoying!"

Li Qishang released Xiao Tuantuan and then said seriously, "Guantao County looks ordinary now..."

However, there are hidden dangers. Be careful when you go out, and avoid going out unless absolutely necessary.

I've already ordered all units to investigate today, and nearly fifty of our soldiers have vanished without a trace.

"I suspect it's related to that fish."

Little Tuantuan exclaimed in surprise!

"So many? If the court officials find out, Jingyu's position as crown prince might be..."

Li Qishang understood as well; after all, he was the commander-in-chief, and his soldiers were mysteriously disappearing.

After that, who would dare to believe that their commander could guarantee their safety?

How could the people of the world allow him to become emperor and their ruler?

Therefore, finding a solution to this problem as soon as possible is of paramount importance.

"Husband, shall we go explore the beach again tonight?" Xiao Tuantuan suggested.

Li Qishang's legs trembled slightly when he mentioned this. This is just too much!

That fish, it's so ferocious, and the worst part is, it's impossible to deal with.

Didn't they become their prey in the past?

"Tuantuan, I don't think we need to take this risk, do we?" Li Qishang was a little scared.

He's the carefree Prince! He instantly lost all desire to be a prince, especially one of the highest ranks!

He wants to quit and let whoever wants to do it do it; he just wants to live a carefree life!

"Your Highness, you should understand that a country comes before a family!" Xiao Tuantuan's tone was somewhat disdainful, and her gaze towards him also carried a hint of disgust.

Looking at Xiao Tuantuan's expression, Li Qishang knew that his wife was about to give up on him!

How could I dare!

How could he let his wife despise him?

No! Absolutely not!

He instantly became dejected; he was a coward, an extremely cowardly one!

"What time does Madam plan to depart tonight?" he asked in a different tactic.

Xiao Tuantuan thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait for their notification."

"Them? Who are they?" Li Qishang was confused. He had no idea what his wife was up to, and he was instantly stunned.

Little Tuantuan didn't say anything, but picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, pretending to be profound.

Finally, she slammed the teacup down, and the unfinished tea splashed out, wetting the placemat and her sleeves.

Without saying a word, Li Qishang gently took her wet sleeve and took out a handkerchief to wipe it for her.

-----

The Imperial Palace in the capital.

Guan Zhiyue sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the little princess in the crib. She was extremely satisfied. She finally had a sweet little girl!

This is her and Li Qiji's little darling!

"My dear husband, our little darling has grown up. What should we name her?"

Guan Zhiyue reached out and squeezed the little guy's hand, very excited!

Li Qiji seemed to have heard something extraordinary, and he said, "Yue'er, say it again."

“I said our little darling has grown up and it’s time to give her a name.”

Li Qiji shook his head and placed his hands on Guan Zhiyue's shoulders.

He looked at her expectantly before saying, "Not that sentence, the other one."

"That's all?"

"No, there are more."

Li Qiji persisted, and Guan Zhiyue laughed. She deliberately said, "My little darling, you must grow up healthy and happy. Your mother and father are waiting for you to grow up."

"Yue'er, it's not this sentence. It's the sentence after this one, the first two words of that sentence."

Guan Zhiyue smiled and reached out to wrap her arms around Li Qiji's strong waist.

She rested her face against his chest and whispered, "My husband."

"Yes, yes, Yue'er, please call me again, okay?"

Li Qiji's eyes were filled with longing; Guan Zhiyue hadn't called him that so affectionately in a long time.

They basically addressed him as "Your Majesty" or simply by his name.

He rarely heard this intimate term of address.

A bright smile spread across Guan Zhiyue's beautiful face as she looked up at him, her lips slightly parted.

"My husband~"

"My husband~"

"My husband~"

"My husband~"

He called out four times in a row, and with each call, Li Qiji's lips curled into a wider smile.

It was as if if she called out again, his smile would stretch all the way to his ears.

"Yue'er, shall you call me husband like this from now on?"

Li Qiji embraced her waist, his eyes filled with longing.

Guan Zhiyue smiled and nodded gently in response, "I agree."

Those three simple words made Li Qiji lower his head and plant a deep kiss on her lips.

It made his heart pound, the kind of pounding that made him want to shout it out.

Suddenly, the ambiguous atmosphere in the room intensified...

If you don't like what's here, let's go directly to Guantao County to see the mermaids.

-----

"Husband, hurry up! If you don't hurry, she'll be gone!" Little Tuantuan urged.

Li Qishang trembled as he held onto the little bundle of joy that was heading forward, not wanting it to get any closer!

It's a pity that those who are supposed to go still have to go!

As the two approached the sea, they heard the song they had heard that night again, drifting through the night sky.

I don't know why this is.

This makes my heart so sad.

Those ancient legends,

They all came to my heart.

The evening breeze was cool as dusk approached.

Beside the tranquil Rhine River,

The mountain peaks were reflected in the setting sun.

It sparkles and shines, truly beautiful.

It was truly strange; suddenly a beautiful woman appeared.

Sitting alone on that hilltop,

She had soft blonde hair combed up.

The gold ornaments shone brilliantly.

She had soft blonde hair combed up.

At the same time, she sang sweetly.

The melody is so wonderful.

Enchanting and melodious,

It is unforgettable.
