The day after the full moon banquet, Liang Enzai brought his entourage back to the imperial capital. At the same time, he didn't forget to kidnap his naughty father, Liang Xuanjing, back to the fu to face those annoying concubines and concubine's daughters.
As for Feng Caiyun, who had originally insisted on staying with his daughter and refused to return to Prince Jing Palace, Liang Xuanjing carried her into the carriage.
As for Long Xiyue, Liang Enzai had been urged to go back by Ouyang Xun before he came here. There were important matters in the palace that required her assistance, so she had no choice but to leave.
"If you have the chance, come to the imperial capital. I'll take you around." Long Xiyue held Su Shuiche's hand as if they were biological sisters.
Liang Enzai glanced at Long Xiyue strangely, then pulled Su Shuiche away from Long Xiyue's side.
He walked to the side and said, "If anyone bullies you, just tell Big Brother.
No matter who it is, Big Brother will definitely stand up for you. "When Liang Enzai said this, his eyes stared straight at Lin Siyao, who was next to his sister.
He wanted to see if the other person's eyes were as calm as his appearance.
"Big Brother, don't worry. With Ah Yao here, I'll be fine." Su Shuiche replied without hesitation.
Her words softened Lin Siyao's hard lips.
Liang Enzai was also speechless as he looked at the sky.
Sigh, it was because of this that he was worried!
This stupid sister.
Liang Enzai helplessly rolled his eyes at the sky, then shot a threatening look at Lin Siyao: If you dare to hurt my sister, I won't forgive you.
Don't think that I don't know your background — you're the gold medal killing god of Fengyao Pavilion!
He clearly remembered the battle from several years ago.
Lin Siyao raised his eyebrows and returned the threat: You too.
If I see you touch her again, I don't care if you're my brother-in-law or not, I'll beat you up!
The two men exchanged glances for a moment before withdrawing their cold gazes.
He was afraid that he would scare the little woman in front of him.
…
"Xu 'Er, Ah Yao, I'll come when spring comes.
Mama Liang, you must serve Miss and Son-in-law well, do you understand? "
The moment before the carriage team set off, the curtain of Duke Jing's luxurious carriage was lifted up from the inside. Feng Caiyun with a rosy face poked her head out to the crowd who were standing at the entrance of the residence and waving their hands to bid farewell as she carefully instructed them once again.
He was afraid that the servants would not work hard and make his daughter suffer.
"This servant understands.
Furen, don't worry. "Mama Liang, Chun Lan, and the other servant girls and manservants comforted the uneasy old wangfei in unison.
Feng Caiyun did not have time to continue instructing Su Shuiche before she was pulled into the carriage by Liang Xuanjing, "Daughter, virtuous son-in-law, if you miss father, mother, and older brother, send a letter to the capital. Father will send someone to pick you up."
"I know." Su Shuiche waved her hand in amusement, "Father, mother, take care of yourselves.
Your daughter is fine here.
Don't worry. "
"Alright, alright, it's not like we won't see each other again. If this drags on, we don't know if we can enter Water Moon City tonight."
Liang Enzai leaned against the outside of the carriage and couldn't help but roll his eyes at the sky, interrupting Liang Xuanjing and his daughter's dragging farewell.
"Stinky brat, you go.
Your aunt and I will just rush back to the capital to celebrate the new year. "
"Wishful thinking.
Who knows if you two will turn around and come back midway. "His old man's credibility was completely ruined when he schemed for him to take up the important position before the age of eighteen.
With Liang Enzai's understanding of Liang Xuanjing, that unscrupulous old man of his was very likely to stand him up.
"Nonsense brat." Liang Xuanjing was just short of blowing his beard and glaring.
After scolding, he waved his hand in the direction of Su Shuiche and Su Shuiche before going back into the carriage.
Only then did the group of people head towards the capital that was thousands of li away.
… …
After Duke Jing and Princess Consort Jing left, the entire residence became much quieter.
Louis Stu rushed over to drink the full moon banquet before hurrying back to Fengyao Pavilion to take care of business.
After settling everything before the new year, he was prepared to return to Floral Town to celebrate the new year.
After Situ Yun returned from Huan Sha City, Si Chong returned to "Guang Ci Tower" to oversee things. With Situ Yun protecting Lin Xiao and Lin Long, he was very assured.
Furthermore, this was Si Ling's territory. If he couldn't even protect his precious children, he would lose all his face as the Killing God.
Out of the eight guards, other than Xiao Heng, he stayed behind to assist Situ Yun in protecting the two residences. At the same time, he could also cultivate his relationship with Chun Lan.
As for the other guards, they were all brought by Si Chong to "Guang Ci Tower" to "make use of them".
Su Shuiche had guessed correctly. Xiao Heng had quite a good impression of Chun Lan.
However, due to the fact that Chun Lan had previously complained that Xiao Heng already had someone in his heart, Su Shuiche specially sent Situ Yun to inquire about it. The result was that it was purely baseless gossip.
As such, the problem between Chun Lan and Xiao Heng was resolved.
After the two of them stabilized their relationship, the wedding would be arranged.
Mama Liang had already married the old Princess Consort and started to arrange Chun Lan's marriage.
Since she was getting married from the Prince Jing Palace, it had to be prepared by the Prince Jing Palace.
This was also good. Mama Liang thought with a smile. In this way, after Chun Lan and Guard Xiao got married, they would be the most suitable steward couple.
Regardless of the size of the completed residence, there would always be a steward couple who would stay here for a long time.
Mama Liang was over forty years old and was all alone. It was not easy for her to handle the matters that men should handle.
Therefore, after Guard Xiao familiarized himself with the management of the residence, she would have to take a step back and revolve around the daily life of the young miss and young master.
Wasn't it a very satisfactory future?
Mama Liang, who had no children, thought with gratification.
… …
A few days after the full moon banquet, the Hua Family was the first to move out of Blossom Town.
After looking forward to it for a few years, they finally settled down in the city.
As for the Wang and Gu Families, who wanted to move back to Beiyi, after notifying the village chief, they planned to stay here until after the new year.
Therefore, before the new year, the vacant Hua Family became the gathering place for the other twenty-four disciples of Si Chong who came to "Guang Ci Tower" one after another.
Mama Liang followed her husband's instructions and sent a servant girl and a manservant to cook and clean for the twenty-four hot-blooded and lively young men.
This was to prevent them from disturbing the young miss and young master.
Of course, this was Mama Liang's own conjecture. Her husband's original words were: Blossom Town was now a Palace Side Courtyard. Since they were guests, they should be accompanied by a cook who made three meals.
"The disciples said that you, Martial Uncle, are too strict. They can't even see Xiao 'er and Long' er's faces."
On the day of the Kitchen God's funeral, Si Chong specially came to freeload a feast and mentioned the thoughts of his twenty-four disciples.
He cast a meaningful glance at Lin Siyao and said with a smile, "Don't tell me you're afraid that they'll disturb little sister-in-law?"
"So what if I am?
They're too noisy. "Lin Siyao took a sip of tea and put the cup back on the table before replying indifferently.
"Noisy?
Uh … that's right.
Twenty or so people coming at the same time is indeed a bit noisy.
How about this, I'll have them line up and only two can come each day.
That should be fine, right? "Si Chong boasted that he had thought of an excellent idea.
"Speak, what is your purpose?" Lin Siyao didn't directly answer him and directly asked Si Chong about his true intentions.
The four of them had known each other for more than ten years since they had first entered Fengyao Pavilion. How could he not know what kind of personality Si Chong had?
He had made his disciples, who were active by nature and happy to go out on missions, obediently stay in Blossom Town, which they called "the birds don't lay eggs." If he didn't have any purpose, then he would be Lin Siyao.
"Tsk tsk, how can you say that.
They're purely here to see their junior sisters.
They heard Yun say how cute and interesting the baby twins are. It's understandable that they can't hold back their curiosity. "After Si Chong finished speaking, he lowered his eyelids and picked up the teacup to replenish his water.
Alas, lying through his teeth really wasn't his strong suit.
However, if his true intentions were to be known by Si Ling, Louis Stu would not let go of his weakness.
"Is that so?" Lin Siyao heard his quibbling and snorted.
He didn't refute him.
"Right, Si Ling, did Sirou say if he'll be back for the New Year?"
Lin Siyao didn't expose Si Chong's intention to change the topic. He shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.
Sirou had left for Corridor West on the day of the full moon banquet.
Half a month had already passed.
To tell the truth, with Sirou's skills, he didn't have a high chance of winning against the Weirdos of Corridor West, who were considered abnormal in the martial arts world.
Although he had been cultivating in seclusion for a while and had reached the peak of the ninth level of the Xuanming Divine Technique before he left, and was only one step away from the tenth level, he still couldn't guarantee that he would win against the Weirdos of Corridor West.
"Alas, Sirou's temperament is just stubborn.
If it were me, since Feng Qingya is dead, my grudge with the Weirdos of Corridor West can be considered settled. Why would I risk my own life? "
Si Chong sighed. "Moreover, Feng Qingya once colluded with the Blood Sect. The Weirdos of Corridor West from the north might be members of the Blood Sect."
"Blood Sect …" Lin Siyao muttered the words in Si Chong's words. Suddenly, his eyes flashed as he recalled what the old Pavilion Master had mentioned. A hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Blood Hades in the north had been at war with the Dahui Kingdom for many years. They had always been eyeing the Dahui Kingdom covetously.
The Kingdom of Blood Hades … Blood Sect …
"Oh no!" He suddenly stood up and glanced at Si Chong. "I'm afraid Sirou's situation bodes ill rather than well."
…
"Since you've decided, let's go."
Su Shuiche helped Lin Siyao tie up a simple bundle. Inside was a thick robe, two sets of inner clothes, a pair of cotton boots, some dry food to fill his stomach if he didn't have time to find shelter, and a leather bag of water.
She handed it to Lin Siyao, who was looking at her deeply.
"Shuiche, I'm going … not only because of Sirou, but also because … there are some facts that need to be verified.
If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid the Dahui Kingdom is in trouble. "Lin Siyao hugged her and whispered in her ear.
If it was in the past, he wouldn't care if his kingdom was destroyed or if the people were in deep trouble.
But it was different now.
He had a stable family, a wife that he loved deeply, and adorable children. He couldn't just sit by and do nothing.
Furthermore, her father and brother were both princes of the Dahui Kingdom. If the Kingdom of Blood Hades really invaded the Dahui Kingdom as he guessed, and cooperated with the Blood Sect that had been hiding in the Dahui Kingdom for many years, then the future of the Dahui Kingdom would be bleak.
