There was a gleam in his eyes, and at a certain moment, his low and muffled voice, the tail tone of which could not stop trembling.

After several rounds of lovemaking, Shen Lianxin fell into a deep sleep.

In her dream, she thought, the man I love must be a peerless hero, who would come through the snow amidst thousands of troops just to save her from danger.

So she fell.

Neither herself in the original world nor the original owner was a young and naive girl, but her love with Gu Dingbei still made her as shy as a girl.

In the early morning, Yunshan Village seemed to have returned to its former tranquility.

A cool mist surrounds the mountains.

Shen Lianxin woke up slowly and found no one by the bed.

He put on his cloak and leaned against the door, watching Gu Dingbei practicing martial arts in the yard. With snow flying all over the sky, he soared into the air, spun around and swung out a dazzling curtain of light, like stars falling from the sky.

The long sword was swung out, brilliant as a silver dragon, and the snow curtain it lifted fell down.

Shen Lianxin narrowed her eyes and stared at it in a trance. This beautiful scene made her intoxicated. If time could stand still at this moment, perhaps, this life would be enough.

Noticing Shen Lianxin looking at him, Gu Dingbei stopped and walked towards her.

"Ma'am, are you awake?"

Shen Lianxin nodded gently. No one said anything more.

Gu Dingbei led her back to the room, "This is the breakfast July prepared. Eat some to warm yourself up first."

Clear porridge and eggs, simple and nutritious. Shen Lianxin ate in silence.

The two seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding, and neither of them mentioned what happened last night.

"Zhaocai is the servant you bought? He said Chengxin, Chengan and Chengjing are studying in the academy in Yuncheng?"

Shen Lianxin nodded, "Yes, I started a small business in Yuncheng, and it was doing pretty well. I sent the children to the academy."

"Madam, you have worked hard over the years! It's not that I won't come back to pick you up, but I have my own reasons!"

Leng Feng had already told her about his difficulties, and she understood that this was to protect them.

"I see."

"This time, I came to take you back to Zhenbei Palace and let the children recognize their ancestors."

Shen Lianxin raised her head and glanced at Gu Dingbei, "Aren't you afraid that we will be in danger if we go back?"

"It's just as dangerous outside. My descendants, Gu Dingbei, can't stay out there forever." Gu Dingbei's eyes were unusually firm at this moment.

Shen Lianxin nodded, "Okay!"

So many times she understood how hard it is to survive at the bottom of society. Often, the greater the status and ability one has, the more things one can do and the more people one can save.

No matter how capable Shen Lianxin was, as a village woman, she could only help Yunshan Village. Even if a stronger enemy came, she had no power and could not even protect the lives of the villagers.

The Zhenbei Palace is a family of loyal warriors, and can even compete with the imperial court. The Crown Prince's Consort of the Zhenbei Palace should perhaps really do something.

"Daddy, Mommy!" Gu Chengzhen woke up and ran to find them.

She threw herself into Gu Dingbei's arms and began to rub against him. Are daughters naturally more attached to their fathers? Perhaps it was because she had lost her father's love for too long, or perhaps it was because she felt that her father was too majestic and handsome. Gu Chengzhen loved Gu Dingbei very much. They were connected by blood, so there was no barrier between them the first time she saw him.

Gu Dingbei picked up the little girl, spinning her around and lifting her up high.

"Ouch! Daddy's little baby is awake!!"

Gu Chengzhen was amused and laughed.

What a beautiful scene!

"We'll go pick up our brothers in a bit, and then go home with Daddy, okay?"

Gu Chengzhen blinked her big eyes, "Can I see my brothers again? That's great, that's great!!"

Gu Dingbei put Gu Chengzhen down, and Gu Chengzhen threw herself into Shen Lianxin's arms.

Shen Lianxin said to her seriously, "Do you know who Daddy is?"

Gu Chengzhen shook his head.

"Your father is the prince of Zhenbei Palace, a great general, and a great hero who defends his country. Your grandfather is the prince of Zhenbei Palace, and you are the little princess of Zhenbei Palace, do you know that?"

Gu Dingbei interrupted, "Call her Princess!"

Shen Lianxin rolled her eyes, "Little Princess!! Do you know?"

Gu Chengzhen blinked her big eyes and nodded ignorantly.

"From now on, your identity is different, and the rules and skills you need to learn are also different. But mother still hopes that you can stick to your original intention in everything and be the happiest version of yourself!"

Gu Chengzhen understood what he said and smiled brightly. She nodded vigorously.

Gu Dingbei was shocked by Shen Lianxin's way of educating children. Even for such a young Gu Chengzhen, Shen Lianxin would give her a serious talk. This was completely different from the way ordinary village women treated their children, either coaxing or beating and scolding.

After breakfast, Shen Lianxin prepared to return to the old house to say goodbye to her relatives.

"I'll go back with you!"

Shen Lianxin didn't expect that Gu Dingbei would be willing to accompany her to meet her family. After all, it was not a glorious thing for a great prince to have lived in this mountain village and been taught a lot by the aunties in the village.

Shen Lianxin thought he would avoid talking about his past experience, but looking at Gu Dingbei's expression, he didn't seem unhappy at all. Instead, he enjoyed his past here.

The two walked towards the old house on foot. The villagers they met on the way greeted them from afar, wanting to be close to them, yet also feeling a little distant.

The gap in status made these simple villagers feel restrained.

When they arrived at the Shen family's old house, Old Mrs. Shen was about to step forward and hold Shen Lianxin's hand, but Shen Lai Fu and Shen Lai Bao grabbed Old Mrs. Shen and Old Man Shen.

Old Lady Shen was so embarrassed that she was about to kneel down in front of Gu Dingbei and Shen Lianxin, "This old woman greets the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!!"

Shen Lai Fu and Shen Lai Bao also knelt, and Shen Lianxin quickly helped up her parents and two brothers.

"Mom and Dad, what are you doing? No matter who I am, I am your daughter first!!"

Old Lady Shen's expression improved a little, and she slapped Shen Lianxin on the back, "I told you, even if she becomes the Queen Mother, she will still be the Fourth Girl of the Shen Family!!! Hahahaha!!!"

Then the atmosphere eased. Shen Lianxin felt embarrassed about being photographed. She glanced at Gu Dingbei and felt relieved when she saw that he didn't look unhappy.

"Prince, please take a seat, sit down!" Shen Lai Fu invited Gu Dingbei to sit down.

Shen Laibao went to the kitchen to make tea. This tea was brought by Shen Lianxin. They were reluctant to drink it on weekdays, and would only make some for Old Man Shen during festivals.

"Prince, have some tea!!!" Shen Laibao smiled and couldn't hide his flattery.

Gu Dingbei took the bowl, took a sip, and his eyes lit up. He had never expected that there would be such good tea in this poor mountain village.

“What a great tea!!”

Seeing that Gu Dingbei was satisfied, everyone relaxed. Old Lady Shen couldn't stop smiling.

"I was saying that this son-in-law is not only handsome but also capable. He was a famous hunter in the village. Who would have thought that he is a prince and a general! Hahahaha!!!"

Shen Lai Fu and Shen Lai Bao followed suit, nodded and smiled apologetically. Shen Lianxin was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
