The Blessed

"We’ll talk about that later. Brother Zhao and Han, however our identities change, I am still me, which will never change.”

Yes, whether he was the crown princess or an ordinary farmer, he was him, the identity change was just additional things attached to him, inside, he was still that Ling Jingxuan fraternized with them, as for Yan Shengrui, he was never close with them, so he’d only get more alienated with them in the future, but it didn't matter, he had his social circles, while he also had people and things he wanted to stay with for a whole life.

"Well, I know, Jingxuan, just be busy with your own stuff. You got me, Brother Long and Zhang Qing here. And we’ll also take care of the kids.”

As he saw the sincerity of his eyes, Han Fei's heart calmed down. Ling Jingxuan nodded and turned to Zhang Qing who was also frozen there, "Qingzi, you go call Jinghan out to welcome the guests. Later, Lord Magistrate will be here. We shouldn’t slight him. Besides, don’t let my parents know about this temporarily.”

"Yes...yes..."

Zhang Qing promised with his tongue tied, turned to Yan Shengrui and others, then stumblingly ran in. Since everyone was busy, and there was a distance from the big gate to the main room. The noise hadn’t raised any attention from those inside. Ling Jingxuan turned to throw another glance at those onlooking villagers. They shouldn’t have heard anything, otherwise, they had already been scared away.

"Let’s go."

After telling them what needed to pay extra attention, Ling Jingxuan went straight into the yard alone. Yan Shengrui slightly frowned. After throwing a stare at Zeng Shaoqing who caused the big trouble, he strode in to catch up with his wife. Chu Yunhan and his son gave each other a look, then followed up. Only Zeng Shaoqing wore a darkened face. Usually, wherever he went, people would all surround him like all the stars twinkled around the bright moon. Even those princes and concubines had to greet him! Never expected that in such countryside, the host ignored him and his buddy hated him. Even the ever most beautiful and mildest Yunhan refused to talk to him, let alone the two little Shengrui who showed their teeth only wishing to pounce over and bite him. What had he done? Making all the way here from the imperial capital, he had done something wrong?

"You stay and help welcome the guests."

The more he felt, the more upset. With a fling of his sleeves, Zeng Shaoqiang made leaps on his tiptoes and almost in an instant, already caught up with them who had walked far away. Then, Shopkeeper Zhang and a few shadow guards and some maids quietly stood in two rows to stand outside the gate. And Zhao&Han couple who hadn’t calmed down went even stiffer. Standing together with those people, how were they supposed to welcome the guests?

"Ge, I’m going in first."

Rolling his eyes, after saying that, the small bun also ran in. Ling Wen threw him a strange look, then turned to say something to the Zhao&Han couple, and grabbed Tiewa’s hand and followed up. As for their payboys, since it was too busy today, so they didn’t serve them aside.

In the past, no matter who came, Ling Jingxuan would at least serve tea. But today, having sat in Chu Yunhan’s room for quite a while, let alone serving tea, he even didn’t say a word. Five of them sat on three sides, each side a long chair. Yan Shengrui put all his focus on Ling Jingxuan, while Ling Jingxuan only looked steadily forward. After feeling his own impulse, he felt out a pill and threw it in his mouth. And Chu Yunhan and his son only felt relieved on seeing that. Zeng Shaoqing who took everything under his eyes gradually calmed down. He didn’t mean to beat him, it was just…His buddy went missing at the boarder, while his aged father and elder brother had to guard at the boarder for him. No news from him for the past few months. When he suddenly saw him standing before him in a whole piece and even was about to get married, of course he’d feel mad. Since he couldn’t vent his anger on Yan Shengrui, he could only vent it on Ling Jingxuan.

"Nine, what the hell is going on? Since you are so well, why didn't you contact us? Do you have any idea how many people are worried about your safety? If word gets out that you're missing, next year the armies of East and West Kingdom will definitely press on the borders again! What to do then? And Yunhan and Seven, why are you also here? Do you know how many shadow guards are looking for you in the land of the Qing Kingdom? If they find you first, you...is there anything that is unsolvable? Why did you run away?”

Looking back and forth at them, Zeng Shaoqing took the lead to break the silence, then complained them for this and that like an old woman. Chu Yunhan and his son cast a faint look at him but said nothing, while Yan Shengrui frowned while talking back, “Six, your patience decreases a lot. You need to marry a wife.”

"You…Yan Shengrui, be serious! Do you think everyone only has his wife in the head like you?”

Zeng Shaoqing got so pissed off again. When saying the word wife, his eyes swept over at Chu Yunhan. When he was little, almost everyone in the mansion took him as a huge headache, and all said he wasn’t like his father at all. Only he, Chu Yunhan, the only legitimate son of Chu family, already tried to comfort him. And since then, he started to like him, not that kind of like between brothers, but between lovers. But, before he could grow up, he put on the phoenix robes and married into the imperial family. And since then, every time he wanted to see him, he had to hand over the token for application. And since then, that pure hidden love had been deeply buried in his heart. When he heard that he had run away from the palace three years ago, his first reaction was happy, and he instantly sent people to secretly look for him. Meanwhile, he also went into the palace to yell at his cousin emperor, so he missed the best time of looking for his whereabouts. As a result, he hadn’t found any clue…
