Once the situation at the border had completely stabilized and some young generals had taken their places, his parents returned to the capital.
They spent half their lives fighting on the battlefield and helped the emperor quell the greatest external threat. After returning to the capital, they no longer held office and lived out their remaining years in peace and comfort.
At first, they were shocked to learn that Yun Qing and Xie Rang planned to raise their daughter to be an emperor, but as Xie Ciying grew up, their worries gradually disappeared.
They've misunderstood. Yun Qing is so outstanding; if he can teach one emperor, he can definitely teach another.
The idea of a woman becoming emperor may sound unbelievable, but with the influx of new things in recent years, people have become much more accepting of it. Even the most traditional and respected ministers didn't say anything, so others had even less right to speak up.
It was evident from her first birthday celebration that Xie Ciying had some talent in martial arts. As a child, she would follow Li Yunshu around every day, climbing on the roof and tearing off tiles. Later, when Li Yunshu went to the border, she was naturally taken over by the Li family couple.
The little princess, who was raised in a semi-free-range manner, showed no signs of arrogance. She could endure hardship and fatigue, and when she was being affectionate, she was truly irresistible. She said she learned it from her father, the emperor.
Meng Wan and Li Gan exchanged a glance, both finding the matter quite interesting.
Li Gan said, "If Yun Qing and His Majesty are getting along like this in places we can't see, then there seems to be nothing to worry about."
Over the years, the feelings between Yun Qing and Xie Rang are not something they can easily fathom.
Meng Wan sighed softly, "Seeing Ci Ying always reminds me of Yu Niang. If only I hadn't kept her in the capital back then..."
When they left, Yunqing was still young, but she had already vaguely understood the responsibilities she bore, and she did not disappoint in the subsequent imperial examinations.
They knew that the late emperor was using Li Yunqing as a pawn, but some things were beyond their control, and they had no choice but to do so.
"Why bring this up now?" Li Gan patted his wife's shoulder and comforted her. "Didn't Yun Qing say that Yu Niang is doing quite well over there? As long as she can survive, that's good."
They had seen countless life-and-death situations on the battlefield, but when it came to their own, they still couldn't let go of the pain.
Ultimately, they harbored regrets.
They hadn't expected that shortly after they began to feel melancholy, Yun Qing would bring them good news when she came to pick up Xie Ciying from the palace that evening.
"Father, Mother, the system says that you can meet with Li Yunqing."
When Yun Qing tentatively asked the system about this matter, she never thought it would be approved. She found it incredible and immediately told Meng Wan and Li Gan about it.
Although they never said it, as a parent herself, Yunqing now understands this feeling and knows they are definitely thinking about it.
Being in two different worlds, we are often powerless to control many things. Being able to meet once would be the best outcome.
Meng Wan and Li Gan suddenly stood up: "Is it true?"
"Of course it's true." Yun Qing handed them a stick of incense and smiled, "Light this incense, and after you fall into a deep sleep, your soul will meet the person you want to see."
Tears welled up in Meng Wan's eyes: "Thank you, thank you so much."
Yun Qing gently shook her head: "I can't say that. I should thank you. If you hadn't done that back then, I would have died too, and none of these things would have happened."
The most wondrous things are those that happen by chance; this is merely another cycle.
After giving them the calming incense provided by the system, Yun Qing took Xie Ciying back to the palace.
Whether it was because she had come into contact with the calming incense during the day or not, just as her consciousness was about to drift into slumber, Yun Qing felt her soul lighten, as if she had entered a magical, white, and boundless space.
1130: "Huh? Host, what brings you here too?"
Yun Qing said expressionlessly, "I wanted to ask you that too."
Given how unreliable 1130 is, it's no wonder it was formatted once, but it doesn't seem to have been of much use.
1130 clasped his hands together and said, "I'm sorry, host, I was wrong. But you can't go back right now. You can stay here for a while until the calming incense wears off."
Since the system had said so, Yun Qing had no reply. She could only wander around in the white space, but she couldn't actually see anything clearly. Moreover, her soul felt floating, which was a bit strange.
Until someone appeared in front of her.
Li Yunqing does indeed resemble Yunqing in some ways. After their souls arrive in the world, their bodies will be gradually assimilated into their own, so their current appearance is their original form.
However, Yun Qing was startled when she suddenly saw the other party appear.
"Are you frightened?"
The similarities between the two are multifaceted; their personalities and preferences are basically the same. No wonder, apart from those closest to them, no one else can tell them apart.
"No, I'm just a little surprised." Yun Qing looked at her and said, "If it weren't for this accident, I would hardly have imagined that there was someone in the world who looked so much like me."
Li Yunqing blinked: "I find it hard to imagine either. But your world is really amazing. So this is what the future world will be like."
For Li Yunqing, it was quite difficult to adapt to the modern world at first. She was shocked to learn that people could fly into the sky, or even into outer space. The imagination of the ancients had become a reality in that era.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "This is all the accumulated wisdom of our predecessors. The world will eventually develop to that point; it's just a matter of time."
