My mission

When Li Shimin heard Qingyin's words, he pretended to be unhappy and said, "Qingyin, since we are brothers, please stop saying these polite words.

Your business is my business, and I will do my best to take good care of you and the child."

Qingyin was deeply moved after hearing this.

She knew that Li Shimin was a man who valued friendship and loyalty, and she believed that he would not let herself and her children suffer any injustice.

Qingyin took Li Shimin's hand and said, "Brother Li, I would like to thank you."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Brother Qingyin, you are welcome.

We are brothers, we should support each other and overcome difficulties together."

He looked at Qingyin, his eyes full of determination and confidence, as if he had already seen the beauty of the future.

Qingyin also smiled and said, "Brother Li, you are right.

We are brothers, we should support each other and overcome difficulties together."

She looked at Li Shimin, her heart full of gratitude and admiration, and full of expectations for the future.

After Qingyin and Li Shimin agreed on the time to return to Chang'an, they went home to find Qing Miaohan and told her the news that he would take her to Chang'an City.

Qing Miaohan was very happy to be able to go to Chang'an City with Qing Yin.

"Mom, this way I don't have to be separated from you, that's great."

Qing Miaohan shook Qing Yin's hand, then looked up at her with sparkling eyes.

Qingyin touched her head and said lovingly, "Yes, yes, that's great. Now you don't have to look so sad."

"Mom~ I'm not looking sad~"

Qing Miaohan said coquettishly.

"Okay, my dear baby is not sad, he just misses his mother, right?"

Qing Yin looked into her eyes and asked with a smile.

"Yeah, I couldn't bear to leave. Fortunately, my mother couldn't bear to leave me either and was willing to take me with her."

Qing Miaohan said while hugging Qing Yin's arm.

"That's right, mother can't bear to leave you either." Qingyin said.

"However, I was dressed as a man in front of your uncle Li, and he didn't know I was a woman."

So, my dear, you have to call me daddy from now on, and stop calling me mommy."

Qing Yin looked down at her and said seriously.

"Oh, okay, I get it, Mom, no, Dad."

Qing Miaohan nodded obediently and said.

A month later, Qing Yin, disguised as a man, arrived in Chang'an City with Li Shimin along with her daughter Qing Miaohan.

The city is majestic, with tall and solid walls, wide and open city gates, straight streets lined with shops, and bustling with people coming and going.

Qing Yin was dressed in men's clothes, looking heroic, while her daughter Qing Miaohan was wearing a pink dress and had two pigtails, looking very cute.

Li Shimin was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had an extraordinary temperament.

The carriage they were riding in slowly drove into Chang'an City, attracting a lot of people's attention.

The carriage stopped at the city gate. Li Shimin got off the carriage, and Qing Yin and his daughter Qing Miaohan followed him down.

Li Shimin looked at the Chang'an City in front of him, feeling filled with emotion.

Qing Yin and her daughter Qing Miaohan were also attracted by the prosperity of Chang'an City. They looked around curiously, their eyes full of surprise and curiosity.

Li Shimin looked at them and couldn't help but laugh. He said softly, "Qingyin, let's go. Take the children and go back to my house with me. After you have a good rest tomorrow, I will take you to find a house."

Qing Yin nodded, and followed Li Shimin to his mansion with her daughter Qing Miaohan.

Since Qingyin already knew Li Shimin's identity, she didn't feel too excited when she saw Li Shimin bringing her to the Prince Qin's Mansion.

But her daughter Qing Miaohan did not know the true identity of the King of Qin. The moment she stepped into the King of Qin's Mansion, her heart was filled with curiosity and surprise, as if a little deer was beating wildly in her chest.

Her eyes widened and she looked around, trying to take in every detail of the mansion in her mind.

After Li Shimin brought Qingyin and her daughter into the Prince of Qin's Mansion, he had been secretly observing the expressions of the father and daughter, especially Qingyin's.

He felt uneasy, like a leaf blown by the wind, drifting helplessly in the wind.

His heart was full of contradictions and anxieties, like a bird trapped in a cage, longing for freedom but unable to fly.

He kept asking himself if he had done something wrong.

Did it hurt Qingyin's feelings?

Will I lose this rare confidant because of this?

Li Shimin's brows were furrowed, and his eyes revealed a hint of worry and uneasiness.

His fingers drummed on the armrests of the chair, as if searching for an answer.

His heart was filled with guilt and self-blame. He knew that he had concealed his identity, which was a sign of distrust and disrespect towards Qingyin.

He originally thought that their friendship was based on sincerity and trust, but now it seems that he was wrong.

He wanted to explain to Qingyin, wanted to tell him that he did not deliberately conceal his identity, wanted to tell him that he really regarded him as a brother, confidant and good friend.

However, he didn't know how to start the conversation. He was afraid of hurting Qingyin's feelings and losing this rare confidant.

Li Shimin's mood became increasingly heavy, as if he was carrying a mountain on his back, making it hard for him to breathe.

He knew that he had to face this problem and explain it clearly to Qingyin.

Otherwise, their friendship would be broken and he would lose this rare confidant.

So, he mustered up his courage, walked up to Qingyin, and said sincerely: "Qingyin, I didn't mean to hide my identity from you.

I just feel that our friendship is based on sincerity and trust, and I don't want my identity to affect our relationship.

I really cherish our friendship and I don’t want to lose you as my brother, confidant, and good friend.”

Qingyin listened quietly to Li Shimin's explanation. There was no anger or dissatisfaction in his eyes. Instead, they were full of understanding and tolerance.

He patted Li Shimin's shoulder gently, smiled and said: "Brother Li, I know you are not hiding your identity on purpose, and I also know that you really regard me as a brother, confidant and good friend.

I am not angry, and I will never be angry, and I will not change my opinion of you because of who you are.

Our friendship is based on sincerity and trust.

I believe that no matter who you are or what your identity is, our friendship will not change."

After hearing Qingyin's words, Li Shimin finally felt relieved.

He looked at Qingyin gratefully, his eyes filled with emotion and relief.

He knew that he had not lost this rare confidant, and their friendship would become stronger and deeper.

At the same time, he also had some awareness that his excessive concern for Qingyin had already surpassed the boundaries of a close friend.
