Years ago, the wife of Marquis Chu had been looking for a man for Chu Yi Zheng, and she had almost found all the good men in the capital.

Unfortunately, Chu Yi Zheng didn’t like any of them, so she wrote a letter and left the next day.

She said she was not in the mood for love and did not want to get married, and she wanted to go to the temple to practice asceticism.

The marquis's wife suddenly fainted. Her daughter wanted to become a nun. Who wouldn't be anxious?

The whole capital was in an uproar. Lord Chu's legitimate daughter actually went to the temple to practice. This was too surprising.

"Yan Hao, your parents will depend on you from now on. You must take good care of them. It is me who is unfilial and cannot be with them to fulfill my filial duties. I will pray for them."

After Chu Yi Zheng finished speaking, she began to recite scriptures with her eyes closed. Chu Yanhao even wanted to beat her up.

"What on earth are you thinking about? If you really don't want to get married...then don't get married. There's no need to come here."

"Go ahead. I've made up my mind. I think it's good to stay away from the world."

Chu Yanhao was finally driven away by anger. He really didn't understand and didn't know what his sister was thinking.

He had to wait until Tianbao came and let Tianbao persuade her. Maybe her sister would listen to Tianbao.

Li Shubai was appointed as the third-rank official in the capital, the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture, and will stay in the capital from now on.

Jiang Shengling invited Li Shubai out for dinner, and Xue Cheng, Jiang Yunting and Qiao Hanyu also came with them.

Three of them also stayed in Beijing last year. All five of them were handsome young men. When they walked on the street, they attracted the favor of many women.

In the restaurant private room

"Shubai, Shengling, Acheng, you three are already grown up, when are you going to consider starting a family?"

Both Qiao Hanyu and Jiang Yunting are married, and their wives were people they met while in office.

"Me? I don't want to now. I'll wait a little longer." Jiang Shengling smiled and waved his hands.

"I'm not in a hurry yet." Xue Cheng replied.

Li Shubai smiled and said, "I'm not in a hurry either."

"You are not anxious, but your family members must be anxious, right?" Jiang Yunting asked with a smile.

"I really don't have time to think about me. My uncle is coming back soon, and they are now only focused on arranging the wedding of my uncle and Miss Xue." Li Shubai said.

"Look who that is?" Qiao Hanyu pointed outside the window.

Everyone looked down and saw a group of girls looking at the boy in the middle shyly as he walked past them.

"Isn't this Ji Chengzhi? He is very famous. He was ranked third in the imperial examination and the top scorer in the imperial examination. He is also good-looking, but he is a little young. Otherwise, all the women in the capital would be crazy about him."

Jiang Yunting praised again, "This Ji Chengzhi is really good. He is young, but he is very knowledgeable and thoughtful. He is now working with the Fifth Prince."

"I think he will be very powerful in the future," Han Qiaoyu continued.

Li Shubai was very curious, "He works for the Fifth Prince?"

Jiang Yunting nodded and said, "Yes, the Fifth Prince is the most capable among all the princes, and he is also the one that the Emperor hinted could become the Crown Prince."

Tianbao went to the temple and met Chu Yizheng, who was practicing Buddhism with her hair uncut.

"Sister Yi Zheng, why are you doing this?" Tian Bao sighed helplessly.

She could see that Chu Yi Zheng really had no attachment to the world.

"Tianbao, you're back? Did my parents ask you to come and persuade me?

Actually, I am not going to become a monk. I just want to practice in the temple for a while. Now I don’t want to have any contact with the outside world at all.

Maybe you will think I am stupid, a daughter of a marquisate would come to a temple..."

“You’re not stupid, these are your choices, if you’ve really thought it through, I won’t try to persuade you.

But your parents are old, you should talk to them and don’t let this matter leave you with regrets later.”

Chu Yizheng smiled and nodded, "You're right, I understand."

Tianbao also smiled. Chu Yizheng looked at her and said, "Tianbao, can we go out together when we have time? Isn't it your biggest wish to travel around the world? Then take me with you."

Chu Yi Zheng returned to the Marquis' Mansion. It was unknown what she talked about with Lord Chu and his wife. The next day, Chu Yi Zheng returned to the temple again, and the two did not hinder her too much.

Li Tong finally came back, and together he returned to the capital with the fifth prince Xue Jue and Linjun Prince Xue Junan.

Before Li Tong came back, he went to the island to find the brothers Dashi and Xiaoshi, and said that he would not go back on his word if he agreed to any of their requests.

The two brothers did not have any other requests. They just hoped that all the villagers on their island who were willing would join the army. This was the result of everyone's discussion.

Li Tong agreed that as long as they met the requirements, they could join the army.

The three men returned in triumph on tall horses, and the people of the entire capital lined the streets to welcome them, applauding them warmly.

Tianbao and the others were standing on the second floor of the restaurant, looking down. When they saw Li Tong and the others coming over, they waved and shouted to him.

"Uncle, uncle..."

"We are here, here..."

The three siblings Li Dachen, Li Zhanyu and Li Xiaoning had the loudest voices, and it was hard for Li Tong not to hear them.

He waved to a few people and saw Xue Yue Niang not far away. He became even happier and smiled broadly at her.

Li Tong and his companions first went to the palace to meet the emperor, and there was a celebratory banquet to welcome them in the evening.

It was already late when Li Tong returned home, and Li Wan and the others had been waiting for him.

"Mom and Dad...I am an unfilial son...I made you worry about me." As soon as Li Tong came back, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Wan and Liu.

Liu quickly helped him up and said, "It's good that you're back. It's good that you're back."

After saying this, he looked him up and down, and was relieved to see that he was intact.

Li Wan was also happy. He pulled him to sit down. They felt very sorry for their son who had been lost and finally found.

Thinking that he must have suffered a lot at the border, the two of them asked him about his well-being.

Li Jin smiled and looked at Tian Bao, "Look... look... Dad and Mom only have the third child in their hearts now."

Qian Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him and said, "You're always around, and your parents are getting fed up with you."

Li Xiaoning laughed out loud, "Just like me, if I was in front of my parents every day they would get annoyed with me, but when I go back after a while, they will be more patient with me than before.

They no longer scold me when I say or do something wrong, and my mother has become gentler. "

"That's for you. They treat me the same as always." Li Dachen complained.

Tianbao laughed and said, "Dachen, what do you think of your second brother and his wife?"

Li Dachen waved his hands repeatedly, "How dare I, how dare I, I don't dare."

"Brother is back." Li Bai ran in excitedly.

Li Tong touched Li Bai's head and said, "Li Bai, you seem to have grown a little taller."

Li Bai was overjoyed when he heard this. "Really? Sweetie, I really grew taller? Will I be taller than you in the future?"

Tian Bao smiled and nodded when she heard this, "Yes, yes, that's right, so you should exercise more and eat more, and you will be taller than me in the future."

"There's nothing to be happy about because you're taller than your aunt. Your aunt is a girl and not very tall. You should compare yourself with your older brother and the others," said Li Xiaoning.

Li Bai exclaimed, "They are so tall... I will have to wait for several years."

*

Li Tong was left in the capital, and the emperor appointed him as the third-rank General Wenyuan and gave him a position, asking him to follow the Nine-Gate Admiral to manage the capital's public security.

The marriage of Li Tong and Xue Yueniang was also put on the agenda, and Tianbao personally asked the emperor to grant the marriage to the two.
