"Silly, of course, I'll take you everywhere, visit every place in the Yun Kingdom, and see the local customs. This time, we won't just play in the Yun Kingdom; I'll take you to other countries too!"
She suddenly understood. So that's what he meant!
"Alright, after this matter is settled, we'll set off. We won't bring the children!"
After the couple reached a consensus, her low mood was restored!
Su Ya was very envious of the two of them. She couldn't even imagine such a love. Now she was twenty-five, neither here nor there!
The servants looked down on her, and the young masters from proper families also didn't fancy her. Time had flown by, and she had reached this age!
"My Lord, Madam, this servant heard that Miss and the young masters have partnered to open a shop. The young ladies from Prince Fan Er's family have also joined. We don't know what they are selling yet!"
Their words stunned the couple!
Zhao Jiaqi asked her, "When did this happen?"
She shook her head, "I'm not sure. When Miss and the young masters came to pay their respects to Madam and my Lord this morning, I overheard them. It seems they said the shop they acquired will be managed by the eldest young master!"
"That's good. Yao Yao has been learning from his master for a year, so it's time to let him out and practice. Whether they lose money or make money, having this courage is enough!"
Fan Zehao was very supportive of this matter. Putting aside other things, when he was eleven, he used to carry a bow and a spear to hunt for food in the mountains. Just based on this, his children were stronger than him!
"Then let them make their own decisions and do what they like. They will gain experience in the process of being busy. This is something no amount of money can buy. We adults will not interfere!"
Zhao Jiaqi also decided to let the children have their freedom. No matter how young children are, they should try to grow up. Here, there's no such thing as nine-year compulsory education or high school and university life!
In wealthy families in ancient times, men had to undergo the capping ceremony upon reaching twenty to prove they were adults and could marry and have children. However, in the countryside, many men married at seventeen or eighteen!
They still had eight years before they turned twenty. They would use these eight years to hone them into responsible men. Zhao Jiaqi felt that letting go today was also a form of trust in the children!
"Husband, send someone to protect them secretly, and observe the children's actions. If they do anything outrageous, they must be severely punished. As for business matters, we won't interfere!"
Fan Zehao understood his wife's intention. She was afraid that the children would go astray!
The couple had just finished lunch and left the dining hall when they saw Wangcai arrive with a troubled expression!
"Your Highness, Madam, that... the Emperor of Wei is here again!"
Fan Zehao really wanted to grab him by the collar and punch him hard. Where was his former arrogance? Didn't he think he was so capable? Why wasn't he pretending anymore!
He didn't want to say a word to Yu Xiaoshuang now. He simply waved his hand at Wangcai, "Do not see him!"
Wangcai took the order and ran off, faster than a rabbit fleeing for its life!
After the man left, Zhao Jiaqi felt it was inappropriate to keep an emperor waiting like this. A tree needs bark, and a person needs face!
"Husband, this can't go on for too long. This is the third time we've refused to see him. If he comes again, you should meet him. His sharpness has been worn down by you. You can't possibly be thinking of destroying the Wei Kingdom, can you!"
This was not their original intention when they held the birthday celebration. Besides, they had already scared him enough. If they went too far, it would be counterproductive!
Fan Zehao: "You're right. I'll see him the next time he comes. We'll resolve the matters that need to be resolved early. Then this birthday celebration won't have been in vain!"
He, in his thirties, was having his first proper birthday celebration. Not only was it early, but it was also with a mission. He truly felt uncomfortable!
At that time, Yu Xiaoshuang returned unsuccessful. He left the prince's mansion and glanced back at the two gilded characters on the red lacquered gate. He pursed his thin lips and ungratefully got into the carriage to return to the separate residence. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Yu Xiaoshuang's personal guard, Zhang Wei, saw that his master's expression was still grim. He rode his horse alongside the carriage window and offered him advice, "Your Majesty, the person in power is angry now. Why not go to the Yun Emperor? The entire incident originated here. As long as the Yun Emperor stops being angry, that person will also lose his temper!"
Yu Xiaoshuang carefully considered his guard's words. It seemed reasonable. However, he hadn't interacted much with Huangfu Xi. But he observed that the Yun Emperor always smiled before speaking. Such a person was a typical smiling tiger!
It was impossible to truly understand such a person, unlike Fan Zehao. He was straightforward and would never lie!
"Find out where Huangfu Xi is. I'll go and meet him!"
Zhang Wei acknowledged and rode off!
The sounds of vendors on the street continuously drifted into Yu Xiaoshuang's ears through the carriage window. He had been very annoyed these past few days and hadn't truly seen this inner city.
He lifted the curtain of the carriage window and looked out. The street was bustling with people, and carriages flowed endlessly. From his vantage point, he could only hear the vendors' calls, and the buyers blocked the view of the stall owners!
He patted the carriage and called out, "Pei Jingcheng, stop the carriage. I want to get out and walk around!"
Hearing his master's command, the guard quickly found a less crowded spot and stopped the carriage, helping him alight.
"Your Majesty, the inner city is too crowded. Be careful!" Pei Jingcheng was afraid that their Emperor would be harmed and instructed him the moment he got off the carriage!
Unexpectedly, Yu Xiaoshuang just waved his hand. He still trusted Fan Zehao's character. Since his safety in the Yun Kingdom was guaranteed, there wouldn't be any problems!
"Accompany me for a walk. Since I've come to the inner city, I should at least bring back some local specialties!"
In Pei Jingcheng's eyes, bringing back specialties was an excuse. The real intention was to investigate whether the inner city was as prosperous as it appeared!
The news of the Wei Emperor leading his guards on a stroll quickly reached Fan Zehao. He dismissed it as a joke and didn't take it seriously!
"Send someone to protect him secretly. Don't let his frail body have any problems in our territory!" After Fan Zehao instructed his subordinates, he turned to his wife and said, "The army camp is changing shifts these two days, and I'm a bit worried, so I'll go and take a look. Also, I've arranged for Yu Meng to be with Xiao Ce. After the shift change, Xiao Ce will take her with the special forces for closed training!"
She knew about the army camp changing shifts, but arranging for Yu Meng to be with Xiao Ce and letting her participate in the special forces' grueling training was something she couldn't accept.
"Our Yu Meng is so young, and you're letting her train with a group of rough men? Don't just say she's a young girl; even a normal grown man would find it difficult to endure. Aren't you risking our daughter's life!"
