Traveling through ancient times

A month later, the results of the imperial examination came out. Qin Mo was the first place winner, and Feng Wenzhi was fifth!

Everyone knew that this would be the result!

These days, Feng Dalian discovered that the old man, Emperor Longcheng, always secretly came to the prime minister's residence at night, discussed with his grandfather for an hour or two, and then quietly returned to the palace!

In the palace examination of the same year, Qin Mo was chosen as the new top scorer, Hu Shiwei was the second place, and Feng Wenzhi was the third place. Their good friends and classmates also won the second and third place respectively, and they were all very happy!

In May of the same year, the Prime Minister's Mansion held a banquet to celebrate Feng Wenzhi's success in winning the third place in the imperial examination. During the banquet, they invited the family of Hu Shiwei, the president of Shannan Academy!

Then the good news of the two families’ engagement came out!

Not long after, good news came from the Protectorate General's Mansion: their second son, the young and promising General Qin, was engaged to be married to Princess Hua'an, who was personally appointed by the Emperor! The whole court was in an uproar!

In October of the same year, Feng Wenzhi got married!

In November, Feng Dalian also got married. However, more than three months later, the couple moved to the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion to live for a while!

In February of the following year, Emperor Longcheng suddenly issued an edict of abdication and announced that Crown Prince Xue Hai would succeed him!

In March of the same year, the new emperor, Emperor Long'an, appointed Qin Mo as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Guards, and Feng Wenxuan as the chief of the Imperial Guards! Feng Wenzhi was promoted to the position of Junior Minister of Agriculture, a fifth-rank official!

In October of the same year, news came from the palace that the former emperor had gone to the royal villa to recuperate due to poor health, accompanied by Xue Lin and his mother!

At the Royal Villa, Feng Xiaolian pouted. Ever since she followed the retired emperor here, that annoying Xue Lin has been inseparable from her. Although he is diligent, he is a chatterbox and is extremely annoying!

In February of the following year, Feng Shuhe wrote to Emperor Long'an, saying that he was weak and wanted to retire and return home, and recommended Wei Fangmin, the son of the former Prime Minister and Marquis of Qingyuan, to take the position! Emperor Long'an approved the request!

That night, the Imperial Study!

"Father, in order to go on a trip with the Emperor, can you bear to let me suffer alone in the court?"

Feng Shuhe smiled and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor Emeritus has given you three years to prepare. Now that you are fully grown, he can rest assured. I have worked hard for the prosperity of the Banyan Kingdom for many years. Now that the country is strong and the people live and work in peace and contentment, I am very satisfied and want to live a carefree life!"

Xue Hai, the current Emperor Long An wanted to roll his eyes to the sky, it was all selfishness, these two shameless old men had been planning for years just to gain freedom, and finally put themselves on the throne, now they were going to run away too!

Humph, if you run away, your grandchildren will have to take over from you!

Thus, Feng Wenxuan and Feng Wenzhi began their diligent career journey!

The Feng Dalian sisters accompanied the retired emperor, his family and grandfather, who were all in makeup, to travel around the country!

Don’t ask her why she was willing to abandon her newlywed husband. Anyway, they can be together in the space at night!

The completely released emperor was now flying in the sky on a roc, with Xue Lin's mother Luo Fei'er in front of him, being protected by him. This was the life he wanted!

On the other big roc sat Feng Shuhe and his granddaughter Feng Dalian. The mountain breeze was blowing and the sky was blue. Looking down, two white wolves were carrying a man and a woman. There was also a white tiger running beside them, and on the tiger's back sat a fiery red fox, which was particularly eye-catching!

"...Dalian, is there any good place to go in this mountain? The scenery here is really nice!

Feng Shuhe felt that his life now was comfortable. After a moment, the big roc cried out, and the two eagles flew northwest at the same time. The two wolves and a tiger running below also ran in the same direction!

An hour later, everyone stopped by the Snow Mountain Lake. Several wooden houses had been built here, and they were spacious and bright!

The wooden house is divided into partitions, bedrooms, guest rooms, and even a toilet!

The floor was covered with felt and surrounded by oilcloth, leaving only two windows with colored glaze. The sunlight poured into the room, making it bright!

The furniture inside is made of camphor wood, including beds, tables and chairs!

The emperor now called himself back to his original name Cheng Su. He picked a room to live in with Xue Lin's mother Luo Feier. Xue Lin lived in one room, Feng Shuhe lived in one room, and Feng Dalian and her sister lived in one room!

In the next two months, they started to pick mushrooms in the mountains and fish by the water!

Feng Xiaolian would run into the woods to collect herbs from time to time, with Xue Lin always following behind her. She would urge him to walk faster and at the same time point out to him with disdain how he could improve his skills!

Xue Lin always responded happily, and once he came across good medicinal herbs, he would be the first to take them out and go to Feng Xiaolian to take credit!

In the fourth year of Emperor Long'an's reign, Prince Shou Xue Lin was married in accordance with the imperial decree and married Feng Xiaolian, the younger sister of the Grand Minister of Agriculture, as his Princess Shou. But they had been married for only half a year when the prince went on a tour around. Emperor Long'an was so angry that he gritted his teeth. This royal brother was too cunning. He would run away without being watched!

Fortunately, he still has his seventh brother who is by his side now. He will be entrusted with important tasks in two years. He has realized that being an emperor is really a tough job. He has to get up earlier than a chicken and sleep later than a dog, and he also has to balance the former dynasty and the harem. No wonder his father abdicated so early!

A few days ago, his father came back quietly and gave away some good things he had found. Looking at his expression, he felt that people would believe him if he said he was his brother!

She came back to show off to herself, but she only stayed for a few days before sneaking out of the palace again, and almost kidnapped her seventh brother!

In the eighth year of Emperor Long'an's reign, on Chang'an Street, a low-key and luxurious carriage stopped in front of Lianrui Clothing Store. A pretty maid dressed as a woman pulled a bench out from the carriage frame and placed it aside!

When the carriage curtain was lifted, two children aged four or five, who looked like porcelain dolls, came out. They looked up at the sign of Lianrui Clothing with their big watery eyes:

"Is this the plaque given by the Emperor? The calligraphy is so beautiful!"

"Grandpa Retired Emperor said that if I practice for another two years, I can write like him!"

The two men talked to themselves, and without even stepping on the pedals, they jumped off the carriage!

A woman in her twenties came out from inside, wearing a neat brocade dress. After seeing the two children get off the carriage, she also jumped down neatly and said:

"Hu Li, I'm here to check the accounts today. It will probably take the whole day. You go back first. I will send someone to pick us up in the evening!"

Qi Huli smiled and said, "Okay, I'll go back to see Brother Hai and our naughty boy too. If he's not here for a while, he'll tear the roof off the house!"

As he was speaking, he saw another carriage coming over. A bright and dignified woman got out of the carriage and said with a smile:

"Dalian, what a coincidence! Your eldest brother happens to be on leave today. The four of us can come and make some clothes!"

A slender man with slightly dark skin got off the carriage, holding a fair and tender little girl of about three or four years old in his arms. A boy of about ten came out from behind him, jumped off the carriage easily, and came over and shouted:

"Hello, auntie. When you go on a trip again, you must bring Chen'er with you this time!"

The little girl in Feng Wenxuan's arms at the back also stretched her neck and yelled:

"Aunt, Ting'er wants to go too!" Everyone laughed!

"It just so happens that my second brother and his family will be coming over soon. How about inviting my younger sister and her family over as well as my grandfather and my great aunt? How about we just make a family decoration?"

Feng Dalian's mind moved. Qin Mo has been the chief inspector of the Imperial Guard for several years. Now it is really the Haiqing River Banquet, and he also wants to travel around with his wife and children!

I submitted my resignation yesterday and the successor has been selected. The handover will be completed in a few days, and my family of four will travel with my grandfather and great-aunt!

At night, the whole family gathered together and recalled the past. When they were fleeing famine, their family was sparse, but now they have many descendants!

Today, the Kingdom of Dayong is prosperous and its people live and work in peace and contentment!

Life is short, like a fleeting moment. Every moment we experience is precious. Sometimes, we might as well slow down and appreciate the tranquility and beauty of life. Cherish every moment.
