End of postscript
The marriage alliance between Jiangbei King Jiang Yanhui and Youbu Prince Luosang has firmly bound the two countries together. One is extremely fond of his younger sister, and the other loves his younger brother dearly; unexpectedly, they have something to talk about.
Lingzhou also became the first formal link for foreign trade. Not only did merchants from the You tribe bring goods to trade here, but large merchants from other countries also brought their teams to this place to look for business opportunities, seeing that the market was huge and profitable.
With the flow of people, Lingzhou's economy developed rapidly, and all sectors were greatly impacted. Lingzhou is no longer the desolate and lonely place it once was; it has become another city that never sleeps.
Of course, these long-term effects need time to prove, but the short-term results are already evident.
“That’s Urentuya, the leader of the You tribe. She looks so young. If you look closely, her features do resemble Losang’s.” Dou Yu, hiding behind the artificial rock with only half her head showing, nudged Lang Rong beside her when she didn’t hear a reply. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Song Wenxuan was given a death order by Lord Song to return to the capital, but at least he had witnessed Luosang's marriage, which put his mind at ease. He boarded the carriage back to the capital, satisfied. No matter what family punishment he would face upon returning, at least he was content for now.
Song Wenxuan left, and Losang liked to stay by Jiang Yanhui's side, so Dou Yu naturally couldn't go and ask for him back. Of course, even if he did, Jiang Yanhui wouldn't let him go.
Losang often wanted to go out with Dou Yu, but he listened to Jiang Yanhui more. Without even a pitiful softening, he would stay obediently after a few words, showing how Jiang Yanhui had him completely under her thumb.
Dou Yu was self-aware enough not to bother the newlyweds, but someone still had to keep him company! So the burden fell on Lang Rong, partly due to Dou Yao's intention to ask her to protect Dou Yu.
Although Lingzhou has become much more prosperous and bustling, it has also become a melting pot of all sorts of people, and the gathering of forces from various places inevitably leads to some minor conflicts.
Lang Rong leaned against the artificial hill with his arms crossed, not peeking out. "I think it's better not to hide here and peek. We should go to the pavilion and say hello."
Dou Yu wanted to argue but couldn't find a reason. Lang Rong's words did make sense. After hesitating for a moment, she gave up when she saw Urentuya taking off her weapons one by one.
Forget it, forget it. Why does this person have so many dangerous things on him? I'd better keep my distance and keep an eye on him.
Because of her status, Urentuya was unable to attend Losang's wedding. This trip to Lingzhou was a special farewell gift, but judging from her demeanor, it would be more accurate to say she came to demonstrate her power. Otherwise, what elder would bring so many weapons and thugs when giving a gift?
With a loving and supportive family, Losang felt he was the happiest person in the world. His comfortable life made him look even more radiant and charming, with a smile often on his lips, and he treated everyone with gentleness.
He was overjoyed that his sister came to visit him today, his eyes crinkling with happiness as he told her how well he was doing, putting Urentuya at ease.
These two women, who were usually at odds, sat facing each other without exchanging barbs. If someone had told them a couple of years ago that things would turn out this way, they probably would have killed the person spreading the rumors.
Urentuya said, "Losang, I'm not too busy lately. Why don't you come back with me? Many elders who have watched you grow up want to see you and offer their congratulations."
Before Losang could figure out how to answer, his hand, which was resting on his lap, was taken without his notice. Using the stone table and wide sleeves as cover, and taking advantage of Urentuya's lack of awareness, the hand was brazenly held and played with in the palm of Losang's hand.
After thinking for a moment, Losang shook his head and refused, "My sister's blessing is enough."
Those so-called elders had no impact on Losang. The two most important relatives in his life were his father and his sister. His father was gone, so it was enough that his sister agreed to let him be with Jiang Yan.
Lausanne was already able to have a relatively fluent conversation, and it goes without saying who deserves the credit for this.
Jiang Yanhui, who was standing to the side, did not say a word from beginning to end, but Urentuya found her displeasing no matter how she looked at her, especially the smile on her lips, which seemed like a provocation in her eyes.
“If you ever want to come back, just send someone with a message, and your sister will bring you back.” Urentuya glanced at Jiang Yanhui, her meaning all too clear.
Jiang Yanhui smiled and gently put her arm around Losang's shoulder. "Don't worry, I will take good care of Losang."
Urentuya's forehead veins throbbed as she watched.
As the leader of a tribe, Urentuya bore heavy responsibilities and had to leave after only a short while. Before leaving, she couldn't help but subtly annoy Jiang Yanhui and asked Losang again if he was going to return to the You tribe for a few days.
At least she had seen her sister off, and Losang breathed a small sigh of relief. She couldn't help but look at Jiang Yan Hui, and gently shook her sleeve. She tilted her small face up, her shyness tinged with a hint of coquettishness, and said, "My sister just cares about me too much. Don't take it to heart. She must be blessing us."
“I know.” Jiang Yan kissed Losang’s forehead in return. The unruly King of Jiangbei was as gentle and peaceful as water in front of his lover, revealing his inner thoughts, “I am happier than anyone else that someone cares about you as much as I do.”
As the wind blew, the hems of the two people's clothes intertwined, as if they would always be by each other's side for the rest of their lives.
