The eldest sister was reborn and the younger sister traveled through time. I just want to survive.

Yan Muxi asked Yan Da more than once where Yan Yongchen had gone.

Yan Da either kept silent or shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. Many years passed, and Yan Muxi still didn't know where Yan Yongchen was.

Yan Yongchen spent his entire life seeking justice for the Wu Yue tribe. She thought that Yan Yongchen would return to the Wu Yue tribe's territory after his death, but she did not expect that Yan Yongchen would choose to enter the vast ocean.

Yuechan once said that she didn't miss Wu Yue because she had no memory of what Wu Yue looked like. She learned everything good and bad about Wu Yue from Mingying.

After Yan Yongchen died, he did not return to Wu Yue. Like Yue Chan, he probably did not have much attachment to his former homeland.

However, the person is no longer there, and Yan Muxi can only make guesses. She cannot guess Yan Yongchen's specific thoughts.

But she knew that Yan Yongchen must be extremely lonely and lacking in love, otherwise he would not treat A Niang differently and be willing to use special ways to let A Niang live well.

As a daughter who did not have a deep bond with her father, she was still willing to come to the sea where Yan Yongchen was buried every year to talk to her father so that he would not be so lonely in the cold sea.

In the blink of an eye, An An has reached marriage age, growing from a lively little girl into a big girl. When she was a little girl, An An looked exactly like Yan Muxi, but as she grew up, she looked more and more like Yu Wantai.

An An's appearance after she grew up was not as charming as Yan Muxi, but she was more rebellious and majestic than Yan Muxi, which was very consistent with her identity as the eldest princess.

Kang Kang is already a handsome young man of fifteen years old. Many old ministers have said before that Kang Kang looks like the young Prince Rong.

But after the effect of the black pill completely wore off, no one said anymore that Kang Kang looked like Prince Rong. Perhaps it was because Kang Kang was too handsome when he grew up.

When Yu Wantai was in the army, he was always criticized by soldiers for his handsome appearance and lack of masculinity, so he had no choice but to grow a beard.

Unexpectedly, when Kang Kang grew up, he also had the same trouble. Because he was too handsome, his dignity as the crown prince was always questioned by his subjects. He planned to grow a beard before his beard even grew out.

Yan Muxi learned that Yu Wantai was planning to resign, so he returned to Huadao after the New Year and forced Kang Kang to go with him.

Different from An An's carefree and free life, Kang Kang has been detained in the imperial city for more than ten years, and has been taught various skills that a crown prince should master.

Although Kang Kang enjoyed it, Yan Muxi, as a mother, was still very worried about her son. She wanted her son to have a good balance between work and rest and live a more relaxed and comfortable life.

The atmosphere in Huadao this spring is a bit depressed. Qian Manman's health is getting worse and worse. He is barely holding on with his last breath.

After taking care of her personally for a few days, Yan Muxi didn't want A Niang to continue suffering, so he decided not to force her to stay.

So one day when the sun was shining brightly, she confessed everything to her mother.

"If mother can't hold on any longer, forget it. There's no need to hold on for me... Father died of the Broken Heart Powder, and was not poisoned by mother at all. Father never put a curse in my daughter's and mother's bodies. Our lives have never been connected. Father has been lying to mother from beginning to end. He can't live, but he wants mother to live well... Father loves mother and cares about her..."

Yan Muxi's tone of voice was very calm, but when she spoke the first word, her face was already in tears.

Qian Manman was in a daze for a long time before she moved her lips and said, "Xijie, are you sure you didn't lie to me?"

Yan Muxi nodded, "My daughter will never lie to me. The only one who has ever lied to me is my father."

After making sure she could go without worry, Qian Manman pulled up the corners of her lips and smiled with difficulty. There was more bitterness than sweetness in her smile. "Then Sister Xi, do you know where your father has gone?"

Yan Muxi thought for a moment and finally nodded.

Although she didn't want her mother to go into the cold sea to look for her father, she was even more unwilling to ignore her mother's wishes.

Qian Manman left peacefully. Before leaving, she must have recalled the sweetness of the past, as she left with a smile on her lips.

Qian Chongguang was sad for two days, but soon got over it. His daughter had been with him for more than ten years. Rather than seeing his daughter suffer in this world, he would rather his daughter leave happily.

According to Qian Manman's last wishes, Yan Muxi buried her body together with Yan Yongchen.

I don’t know if it was because his best friend had a partner, but after Qian Manman was buried in the sea, the Big Bad Wolf’s compassion faded a little.

Not wanting the big bad wolf to continue guarding in vain, Yan Muxi increased the number of sheep she had originally promised from 100 to 10,000. However, the big bad wolf was still unwilling to follow her and insisted on staying on the beach to guard.

When the worship was held the following year, the big bad wolf's body had turned into a pile of dry bones, with its skull facing the direction of the sea. Until the last moment of its life, it protected its lifelong friend.

On the way back to Luodu, Yan Muxi told An An and Kang Kang about the past.

An An's eyes were filled with tears when she heard this, but Kang Kang clenched his fists. He told Yan Muxi that he would be a good king and that under his rule, the tragedy of genocide would never happen again in Dafeng.

Kang Kang's personality is very suitable for being an emperor. He is mature and deep, able to hide his thoughts and endure loneliness. When he was just sixteen years old, he took over the affairs of the court from Yu Wantai.

Yu Wantai, who had his hands free, pulled Yan Muxi out of the imperial city that night, fearing that if he ran too slowly, he would be caught up by his son and ministers and continue to be emperor.

In recent years, every time Yu Wantai saw Yan Muxi and An An going out of the palace to play, he was so envious that his soul flew away. If his son was not too young, he would have quit long ago.

Now that his son has finally reached the age where he can take over the throne, no one can force him to work like a slave.

Taking off their brocade clothes and hairpins, Yan Muxi and Yu Wantai disguised themselves as an ordinary traveling merchant couple, wandering between the mountains and rivers and the market of Dafeng.

When I come across a town with beautiful scenery or interesting culture, I rent a small courtyard and live there for ten days or half a month, waiting until I have enough time before moving on to the next one.

The couple set out in the spring and traveled to Shengjing in late summer. Treated by Gu Yunting and Yan Muyun, they had a great time in Shengjing for dozens of days before continuing on to their next destination without a destination.

The two of them didn't know that after they left, Yan Muyun and Gu Yunting had been quarreling for a long time. Yan Muyun blamed Gu Yunting for being too strong in fighting ability and for giving birth to sons one after another. She also wanted to give up her responsibilities early and take care of the elderly, but unfortunately the actual situation did not allow it.

Yan Mujun really couldn't leave. After giving birth to a pair of twin sons, she gave birth to a fourth child. All four of her three children were sons, not a single cuddly girl.

Since they couldn't give birth themselves, Yan Mujun and Gu Yunting hoped that Qing'er would give birth to a granddaughter after getting married so that they could also hold a soft baby girl in their arms. As for enjoying retirement in advance, they could only put it off indefinitely.

Yan Muxi and his wife left Shengjing and headed east, returning to Huadao by boat before the spring of the following year.

Mingxin secretly left the island again, and Yu Jintang's health was getting worse day by day. However, Yan Muqing was very open-minded and secretly said to Yan Muxi, "I let Mingxin get married and have children on the island because I didn't want her to stand out and attract the emperor's attention. Now that I see that the emperor doesn't care, I won't restrict the child anymore. People live a lifetime, and there are only a few years to toss around as much as they want. As a mother, I support Mingxin in whatever she likes. I am relieved that Honglin and Hongyuan will take care of her. As for Jintang, we can accompany each other and live for decades more. He and I are very satisfied. If you think about it carefully, my life that I have come back to is not lived in vain."

The Yan family never announced the death of Yan Yongchen from beginning to end. Yan Yongchen disappeared, and the officials and people in the court thought that he was traveling around the world or hiding away in a secluded paradise.

Yan Honglin, the eldest son of the Yan family, won the top spot in the imperial examination in the first year of Xi'an. He was then sent down to the countryside to gain experience for several years. Now he has inherited his father's career and become the youngest cabinet minister.

Yan Hongyuan, the eldest son of the Yan family, did not take the imperial examination to become an official, but stayed in the academy to work, teaching and educating people for many years. Now he is the respected president of the academy.

In short, except for those who have passed away, everyone who is still alive is living a good life.

Yan Muxi was very happy that Yan Muqing had let go of her worries, and sincerely invited her to go out for a walk on the island.

Yan Muqing readily agreed, saying that she would accompany Yu Jintang through the last journey of his life, and then she would go with Yan Muxi, trying to see more different skies and mountains and rivers, so as not to waste the opportunity given to her by God to live two lives as a human being.

After leaving Huadao, Yan Muxi and Yu Wantai traveled south along the east coast line, then from southeast to north, traveling along the way, and returned to Luodu at the end of the year.

The emperor and empress disappeared for nearly two years. When they finally returned to the palace, all the ministers thought that the emperor was going to take back the imperial power, but they did not expect a shocking bombshell to happen.

The emperor voluntarily abdicated and passed the throne to the crown prince at a ripe old age, giving up his imperial power and becoming the emperor emeritus.

Before the crown prince officially ascended the throne, Emperor Xi'an, who had been promoted to the title of Supreme Emperor, ran away with the newly-appointed empress dowager.

From then on, the emperor and the empress dowager traveled hand in hand in the mountains and rivers of Dafeng. Their whereabouts were uncertain, but they would be revealed from time to time.

For example, in the second year of the new emperor's accession to the throne, the emperor and the empress dowager appeared in a brothel in Jinling City, taught a lesson to the prefect's young son who had abused the courtesan, and dismissed the prefect of Jinling from his post.

When the news spread, all the brothels in Jiangnan were packed with people. Literati and wealthy businessmen all hoped to have the honor of meeting the retired emperor and the empress dowager and catch a glimpse of their faces.

The brothels that were open to customers were afraid of bringing more trouble, so they dared not do the prostitution business and instead started selling performing arts.

In the third year of the new emperor's accession to the throne, a beggar gang of more than a thousand people was wiped out in Dingzhou City, and the two big Buddhas, the emperor and the empress dowager, went straight to the center of power of the beggars.

In the fifth year of the new emperor's reign, nearly ten court officials were dismissed in Xiangnan, but the court officials and the people did not know about it until a long time later.

When the retired emperor and the empress dowager visited southern Hunan, they saw that the local people were living in misery. They discovered that officials and businessmen were colluding to oppress the people. They found evidence and submitted it to the court, which led to a major reshuffle of the officialdom in southern Hunan.

There were many incidents like this. As the retired emperor and the empress dowager were running around Dafeng, their group was nowhere to be found. In order to protect their official hats, local officials worked very hard and did not dare to slack off. As a result, the administration in Dafeng became much more clean than before.

As time passed, one autumn day, Yan Muxi and Yu Wantai came to Ice City together.

The couple, now with gray hair on their temples, lived for a long time in the courtyard where they had spent their childhood.

Looking back on those hard days, they seem sweet.

Under the pear tree full of fruits, the little girl asked eagerly, "I want to eat them so much. When will the fruits be ripe?"

The young man at the side smiled, "Yinyin, don't be greedy. When I grow up, I will plant the sweetest pears for you to eat."

The little girl turned her head and looked at the boy, smiling, "Sister Ning An, you must keep your word and not break it."

The young man's eyes were firm, "I will never break my promise. We are both in trouble now, and we will also share happiness in the future. No one is allowed to default on his promise."

"Okay, let's make a pinky promise and stick to it for a hundred years!"

"One hundred years is not enough, it will take ten thousand years without any change!"
