"Sister, why did you leave the palace?"
A Ye looked at Chu Yuening and Ying Zheng with excitement and worry.
The last thrilling assassination left a heavy shadow on A Ye, and he even had nightmares for several days in a row.
"It's alright, the assassins have all been killed, and besides, A Zheng is with me."
Chu Yuening looked at the boy who was almost as tall as herself and comforted him with a smile.
Now, when leaving the palace, Ying Zheng would order people to check for dangers in advance, and there were also a large number of Black Ice Guards protecting him in the dark.
If there are still some foolish assassins who dare to attack, I am afraid there will be no return.
"That's good."
A Ye breathed a sigh of relief, then noticed Ying Zheng and quickly bowed to him.
"Your Majesty."
"Well, no need to be polite."
Ying Zheng's tone was gentle. Since Yue Ning regarded them as his brother's sister-in-law, he naturally loved them as well.
"Huh? Where's Xi'er?"
"Sister, Hua has been busy in the factory for the past half month, leaving early and returning late every day."
"Alas... there's no need to work so hard, kid. Just take it slow."
Chu Yuening shook her head, her eyes full of disapproval, and then teased.
"Xi'er is the factory manager now. How is the expansion of your bakery going, Aye?"
"Sister, I've taken the franchise system you mentioned into consideration and have already cooperated with the supply and marketing cooperative owners in Hanzhong County, Hedong County, and Sanchuan County."
"I plan to gradually expand the bakery to counties across the country, starting with Xianyang..."
When talking about his business, A Ye's face was full of confidence and his words were clear and logical.
Not only can he humbly accept other people's opinions, but he is also good at utilizing his personal connections. Now A Ye can be considered a qualified businessman.
After a long conversation, Chu Yuening looked pleased, and even Ying Zheng's phoenix eyes showed a hint of admiration.
"Aye is indeed gifted in business. Sister was right about him."
"However, you must not neglect your studies on a daily basis. Knowledge and ability are the foundation of your negotiations with others."
"Yes! Sister, I will."
A Ye nodded heavily, his face becoming more steady and mature.
The competition among businessmen is like the silent flash of swords and sabers. If you are not careful, you may miss a step and fall into the abyss.
If it weren't for their elder sister's protection, they would have been eaten to the bone. But they can't rely on their elder sister forever, they still have to make themselves stronger.
"Well, that's it for today. I'll come visit you next time."
The tea on the table had gone cold. Chu Yuening stood up and was about to say goodbye, but she heard A Ye's hesitant request.
"Sister, can you give me a new name too?"
The young boy looked at Chu Yuening expectantly with his bright eyes.
When he learned that his sister had given Ah Hua a new name, he felt sad and regretful.
He also wanted to take his elder sister's surname so that they would feel more like a family.
Chu Yuening chuckled when she heard that, then frowned and thought for a while.
"Chu Heng, how is it?"
"Whether it's business or life, I hope you'll weigh the pros and cons and never be careless."
"Okay! I like this name very much. Thank you, sister!"
Chu Heng savored the meaning of his new name with great pleasure. Humph, when Chu Xi comes back, he will definitely show off to her and see if she still shows off.
Looking at the boy's satisfied expression, Chu Yuening felt amused but also disappointed.
Fate is so wonderful!
I originally thought that I had few relatives, but I never expected that after traveling to another world, I would have so many family members again.
Inside the carriage, Ying Zheng frowned as he looked at the woman who had not spoken since she got on the carriage.
"Why is Yue Ning worried?"
"...Just thinking about my family."
Chu Yuening did not hide anything, but she looked a little depressed.
Ying Zheng hugged her tightly, his chin resting on the top of her head, his voice magnetic and gentle.
"Yuening, I will always be with you."
Although Yue Ning is very attached to him on a daily basis, she is very independent and opinionated in her heart, and rarely shows such a vulnerable moment.
There was a hint of tenderness in Ying Zheng's phoenix eyes. He hoped that Yue Ning would always be bright and beautiful.
Surrounded by the sufficient sense of security given by her lover, Chu Yuening quickly regained her spirits.
"Well, A Zheng, let's go to the academy next."
The days were exceptionally long in the summer, and the sky was still bright when they arrived at the academy.
Chu Yuening originally wanted to feel the campus atmosphere, but after the last opening ceremony, all the students remembered Ying Zheng's face clearly.
In order not to cause a sensation, Chu Yuening had no choice but to pull Ying Zheng directly to the Academic Affairs Building.
Chunyu Yue, who was handling educational affairs, quickly put down his brush and saluted when he saw the emperor and empress.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
"My dear, there is no need to be so polite."
Chu Yuening looked at the furnishings in the room curiously.
The first thing that caught my eye was the row of bookshelves densely packed with books, and in front of them was a long office desk and several stools.
Overall, it is extremely simple, but one can see the diligence of Chunyu Yue, the Dean of the School of Academic Affairs.
"Dean Chunyu, I wonder if you're adapting to life at the academy?"
"Of course, thank you for your concern, Madam."
Chunyu Yue replied respectfully with a serious expression, and his words were not just politeness.
For him, being able to not only read many precious books in the academy but also teach students was already very satisfying.
After exchanging pleasantries, Chu Yuening directly stated her purpose.
"How many female students are enrolled in the academy?"
“There are only seven, three in law school and four in medical school.”
"Well, then summon them."
Chu Yuening sighed softly, with a hint of sadness between her brows.
