Even if you put all her past and present lives together, she's never been a real princess.
Moreover, he had only mentioned bestowing upon himself the title of a county princess or a county princess, which was far inferior to that of a princess.
But as soon as she finished speaking, a whistling sound of cold wind rang out beside her.
"Daughter, are you abandoning your own father?" Lin Weiming's voice rang in Lin Wanyue's ear.
Lin Wanyue was startled by his plaintive voice and hugged Qi Sichen even tighter.
Lin Weiming's face was filled with grief and indignation: "I knew my daughter was going to be kidnapped! Kidnapped to be someone else's daughter."
"Daddy~ I didn't, I didn't do it, Daddy, hug me." Lin Wanyue quickly turned around and reached out her hands to Lin Weiming.
Although Lin Weiming was still somewhat dissatisfied, considering that Qi Sichen was still there, he quickly pulled Lin Wanyue into his arms.
"Daughter, you need to know! You have a biological father, you can't just let anyone call you daughter, who knows what that person is thinking?" Lin Weiming rolled his eyes at Qi Sichen.
The other passengers on the carriage also disembarked one after another and arrived at the post station.
Qi Sichen didn't want to argue with him directly, so he simply told Lin Wanyue, "I'll make arrangements for you once we get to the capital."
...
This inn was quite remote, and the cold wind made it seem even more desolate.
The man guarding the inn was an old man in his seventies or eighties. He was hunched over and walked with faltering steps. When he saw them, he was so frightened that he hid inside the house again.
Qi Sichen and the others didn't bother with him. They just had someone throw a dime at the old man and then found a place to stay.
The inn's rooms weren't good, and they were a bit drafty, but at least they were a place to stay. With the help of Qi Sichen's servants, they could make do with the rooms.
When Qi Yuan said this to Lin Wanyue with some guilt, she was prepared to suffer. But when she opened the door, she saw that the finest silks and satins were just used as curtains on the window to block the wind.
The bedding was even better than what the Lin family used at home.
After dinner, as soon as Lin Wanyue returned to her room, the five ghosts in the house were already there.
Laifu spoke first, saying, "We're probably going to have a big fight tonight. I saw several ghosts as soon as I came in. We chased them away, but they still seem determined to cause trouble."
"Your Majesty is the ruler of a country, how can your health be so weak? I've seen so many ghosts coming along the way, they must all be after Your Majesty. Logically speaking, we're almost at the capital now, this shouldn't be happening right under the walls of the imperial city." Lin Xiangwu frowned.
Unlike Lin Xiangwu, the other ghosts did not have the same deep affection for the emperor. They simply found Qi Yuan rather troublesome, so they rolled their eyes and said to Lin Xiangwu, "General, since that's the case, why don't you protect His Majesty tonight? We can take care of the rest."
“But…” Lin Xiangwu naturally wanted to go directly to protect the emperor, but he was worried about Liu Junlan and hesitated. So he thought he would come and see if Lin Wanyue had any better ideas.
Lin Wanyue said, "I do have some usable talismans here, but I'm afraid they might hurt you too easily. Otherwise, I'll trouble you to guard the door for the next two days. If any ghost dares to come over, kill it without hesitation!"
"Wanwan, won't this alarm the underworld?" Little Pink Butterfly asked nervously.
She still had things on her mind and didn't want to go to the underworld so soon.
Laifu wasn't too worried about it. He sat down lazily at the small table next to him and casually took out two lollipops and stuffed them into his mouth.
The two flavors of lollipops transformed into a completely new flavor in the mouth, which Laifu found very interesting.
Master Cui and Hu Jiuyuan both looked over.
"It's alright. After all, you were protecting the emperor, which is to protect the world from turmoil. Who knows how many lives you might save? They certainly won't blame you. They might even do you good deeds," Lin Wanyue reassured her.
Hearing Lin Wanyue say this, the ghosts all had some ideas.
"We dare not think about anything like good deeds, as long as they don't arrest us," Master Cui said.
These ghosts, who now spend all their time together, naturally know each other's wishes.
Every ghost has its own obsessions, which is why it continues to linger in the human world. Perhaps it's just that Lai Fu has been living in a daze all this time, but since he's lived so long, he's not afraid of going to the underworld.
Lin Wanyue whispered a few more words to them and discussed their plan.
After a while, Liu Junlan came to knock on the door and told Lin Wanyue to rest early before turning off the lights.
Ghosts don't need lights to see in the night, so they each stood guard outside, surrounding the small inns completely.
The wandering ghosts outside, taking advantage of the fact that everyone in the inn had fallen asleep, began to stir restlessly.
A cold wind howled.
"Who are you? Are you going to try and take it from us too?" A ragged male ghost with his eyes rolled back crawled out of the ground, walked up to Laifu, and said viciously, "Get out of my way now, or I might give you a hand to eat later. Otherwise, I'll eat you right now."
"What a big mouth! You actually want to eat me? Let's see what teeth you have that can take me down!" Laifu kicked the male ghost in the face without any politeness.
The male ghost was truly shameless; he actually opened his mouth, revealing sharp, white teeth, and bit into Laifu's foot.
