After I traveled through the book, I was spoiled by five little villains

The fourth year of Yongle.

During the Jingzhe period, spring thunder begins to sound.

Wake up the sleeping earth and awaken the hibernating insects underground.

Deep in the misty Huangshan Mountain, there is a quiet courtyard hidden away, with towering ancient trees and new green leaves sprouting on the branches.

In front of the window, the man who has become a father has become more calm.

Time has not taken away his handsomeness, but has endowed him with mature charm, and his temperament has become more restrained and peaceful.

Yan Changqing stood tall and stretched his hand out of the window. A gray pigeon cooed and pecked at the wheat in his palm.

After the pigeon stopped, he took off the bamboo tube tied to the pigeon's leg and pulled out a small paper roll.

As soon as I unfolded it, I heard light footsteps coming from behind me.

Yan Changqing turned around and looked at Qin Yaoguang with deep affection in his eyes that had not diminished over the years: "Jie'er finally fell asleep?"

Qin Zhijie is the name the couple gave to their daughter after discussion, which means "good rain knows the season".

Qin Yaoguang smiled and nodded: "I don't know what's wrong with him today. He refuses to take a nap."

She shifted her gaze to the scroll in the man's hand and asked, "Qingbai has sent news? What's it?"

“I haven’t had time to look yet.”

Yan Changqing put his arm around her waist, sat down on the couch, and unfolded the paper scroll.

There were not many words on the scroll, and the two of them finished reading it quickly and smiled at each other.

"It's time to go back." Qin Yaoguang said.

Yan Jinyin's wedding and Qin Yuanan's coronation ceremony are coming up, so they should go back.

Every child’s wedding should not be missed.

When Yan Shouzhuo got married, Qin Yaoguang was pregnant and as the emperor she could not leave the palace at will, and she has regretted it until now.

"it is good."

Yan Changqing nodded: "Madam, you and Jie'er take a nap first, I will make arrangements."

In the past few years, the two have been away from the court, their whereabouts are uncertain, and they have been wandering among the beautiful mountains and rivers.

In Qin Yaoguang's words, it means measuring all the territory of Dajing with one's feet.

They have plenty of time, so they wander aimlessly.

With your loved ones by your side, wherever you go is home.

Success and fame, and peace in the world.

The two men arranged the future for all the loyal people around them, but Qingbai and Donglin were the only ones who were unwilling to leave and followed them with their people.

After living in Huangshan for more than a year, Qingbai and others lived at the foot of the mountain and delivered messages for them.

Life in the mountains was very leisurely. Yan Changqing reclaimed an acre of land and became self-sufficient.

During the day, Qin Yaoguang accompanied her daughter to the mountains to enjoy the scenery and sketch, and set up a desk to teach her.

When she was in high spirits, she played a tune on the piano, and Yan Changqing danced with a sword beside the waterfall to the sound of the piano, not for practicing martial arts to fight against the enemy, but just to make his daughter smile.

Now, it's time to leave.

Qin Yaoguang returned to the room and lay down beside Xiao Zhijie.

Looking at my daughter's innocent sleeping face, I feel satisfied.

Yan Changqing went down the mountain and asked Donglin to prepare to return to Beijing. After returning, he planted the seeds in the fields and applied fertilizer.

Since we don’t have time to eat the vegetables this year, it’s also good to let them grow naturally.

at night.

"Mom, why are we leaving?"

Xiao Zhijie's long eyelashes fluttered like two fans and she asked curiously.

"Because," Qin Yaoguang held her on his knees, "Jie'er's second brother and fourth sister are getting married, so we have to go back."

"Mother, what is marriage?"

"Marriage is when two people fall in love and want to spend their lives together, like me and your father."

Little Zhidian nodded, indicating that he understood: "Give birth to another baby, like me."

I have to say, although my daughter is young, she is quite capable of learning from others' experience.

"Where are you going back to?"

"Go back to the capital."

Yan Changqing walked in from outside and took Xiao Zhijie from Qin Yaoguang's arms: "It's too late, a little girl needs to go to bed."

Xiao Zhijie refused to give in. She twisted her body and said in a baby voice, "My daughter still has a lot more questions to ask."

Yan Changqing lifted her up high, making her giggle so much that she immediately forgot what she wanted to ask.

"Stop teasing her and sleep carefully." Qin Yaoguang reminded the father and daughter with a smile.

"Your mother is unhappy," Yan Changqing whispered in his daughter's ear, "Let's go to bed quickly and listen to what mother says."

"Ok!"

Xiao Zhijie nodded vigorously: "We must listen to our mother."

Her bedroom was inside, a small room that was not luxurious but extremely warm.

The floor is covered with warm lambskin carpets, various star and moon ornaments are hung in the air, and there is a pink and purple soft round curtain over the children's bed, which is dreamy and full of childlike fun.

Xiao Zhijie lay on the bed, pulled the pillow made by her mother and hugged it in her arms, looking at Yan Changqing with her black eyes like glass: "Dad, you should tell your daughter the story of Hexi."

Yan Changqing hummed, sat down against the crib, and told his daughter the story of that year.

The man's voice was mellow and charming, and soon the little person on the bed fell asleep.

Yan Changqing stood up, carefully tucked the quilt for his daughter, then left quietly and closed the door.

"lady."

He took the book from Qin Yaoguang's hand, leaned closer to her with his hands on her side, and accused her: "The book is better looking than my husband?"

"Don't make trouble."

Qin Yaoguang smiled and pushed his face away, and asked softly, "Is Jie'er asleep?"

"Sound asleep."

In the darkness of the night, Yan Changqing's gaze was deep and indescribable. His big hand slid under the hem of her clothes, burning her so much that she gasped softly.

His kiss followed her everywhere, patiently and carefully kissing every inch of her skin.

"You...you, be gentle..."

It was obvious that she was concerned about her sleeping daughter, and there was a slight tremor in the end of her voice, which was both seductive and charming.

Yan Changqing's breathing was hot. He leaned down, igniting the passion in the dark night.

The shadows of the trees swayed, and a waning crescent moon hung in the distant night sky.

Dark clouds rolled and gathered in the sky, gradually blocking the moonlight.

The spring thunder that appeared suddenly at noon exploded again, and this time it came with great force, bringing with it pouring rain.

A bright flash of lightning struck across the dark sky, cutting through the sky and leaving behind a series of dazzling cracks.

Yan Changqing was sleeping soundly with Qin Yaoguang in his arms, but his brows were tightly furrowed and he was struggling slightly with anxiety.

He was trapped in a very long and terrifying dream.

In the dream, he was only interested in revenge, but missed the woman he loved.

When his great revenge was finally achieved, he drew his sword and looked around in confusion, only to realize that he had done many wrong things.

Not only her, but also five children, all went on the wrong path.

And the blood of so many innocent people.

He wanted to atone for his sins.

Bian Chen found him and asked him if he wanted to correct this wrong world?

He nodded.

Even if revenge might fail?

can.

Even if she forgets everything, no longer loves you, and even just wants to leave?

it is good.

Even if, after your blood sacrifice, when this life ends, your soul will dissipate between heaven and earth, and there will be no afterlife?

can.

He fell into darkness amidst blood and severe pain, and woke up to the sound of spring thunder, gasping for breath, with every muscle tensed.

"Evergreen."

Qin Yaoguang opened his eyes dazedly and gently touched his chest with his hands: "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

Her voice was soothing, like a gentle breeze, clearing away the fog for him.

"never mind."

Yan Changqing held his soft hand and kissed it devoutly and deeply.
