Li Yuanzhe looked at the crooked stitches embroidered on his purse, and the corners of his lips raised slightly. Murong Lanying's face heated up and she glared at Li Yuanzhe: "Don't dislike my embroidery work!"
Li Yuanzhe solemnly took the purse into his arms, lowered his head in Murong Lanying's ear, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Wait for me!"
Although it was only three words, it was the most important promise he, Li Yuanzhe, made to Murong Lanying!
Murong Lanying was shocked, nodded and said slowly and solemnly: "I will wait for you!"
Murong Lanying, who climbed onto the city wall, silently watched them leave until the back of Li Yuanzhe on horseback disappeared from sight, unwilling to look away for a long time.
The road back to the Imperial Capital was not smooth. Wei Zijin was worried that Xiao Jingyao would not feel comfortable under the bumps of the carriage, so he sometimes smoothed the cushions for him and sometimes told the groom to avoid the stones on the road!
Although the carriage was spacious, Qiao Xiang and Huan'er took another carriage specially to avoid disturbing Wei Zijin and Xiao Jingyao's solitude. There were only two people in the spacious carriage, Wei Zijin and Xiao Jingyao, so Wei Zijin did everything by himself.
Seeing that Xiao Jingyao was concentrating with his eyes closed, Wei Zijin did not disturb him anymore. He opened the curtain and looked outside, and asked the driver who was on his way: "Where are we already?"
"Back to Princess, we are almost arriving in Luoyang..." the carriage driver replied respectfully as he hurried on.
Luoyang is the only way to return to the Imperial Capital from Yecheng, but this time they are in a hurry to return to the Imperial Capital and may not be able to stop in Luoyang.
And the eldest brother Li Yuanzhe, although he is a military advisor, cannot return to the Imperial Capital with them at this time, let alone appear under Xiao Heng's nose like this!
Although the eldest brother has made great achievements this time, if he appears rashly and follows Xiao Jingyao's army in the Imperial Capital, it will only arouse Xiao Heng's vigilance!
Not only will Xiao Heng not reward his eldest brother for his contribution as a military advisor, but he will also suspect that Xiao Jingyao has been secretly forming a clique with the Li family for personal gain!
This was not the perfect time for her eldest brother to show up, and she couldn't let her eldest brother and Xiao Jingyao take the risk that their original contribution to replenishing Hou Yan to repel the Northern Wei army would be wiped out because of Xiao Heng's vigilance!
According to the original plan, the eldest brother will say goodbye to them in Luoyang!
When she thought of saying goodbye to her eldest brother again, Wei Zijin was inevitably a little reluctant to say goodbye. But she couldn't delay her trip just because of her temporary reluctance!
"Zijin, let's say goodbye here -" Li Yuanzhe didn't even let the carriage stop and waved goodbye to Wei Zijin who opened the curtain.
"Brother, you should also take care of yourself!" Wei Zijin nodded.
At this moment, Jamel Xiao, who had been napping, opened his eyes, clasped his fists at Li Yuanzhe and said, "Zhenzhong, Zijin and I are still waiting for you to come and have a wedding banquet!"
"Definitely!" Li Yuanzhe nodded and smiled. He only had this only sister. Now that his sister and Jamel Xiao finally got married, of course he wanted to drink their wedding wine!
Seeing that his eldest brother was about to disappear from his sight, Wei Zijin's eyes heated up, and he shouted to Li Yuanzhe's figure: "Brother, I'm also waiting to drink the wedding wine between you and the princess, but don't let the princess wait too long!"
Li Yuanzhe did not look back, but waved his hand on horseback to express that he heard it.
Wei Zijin smiled knowingly, then lowered the curtain and sat back in the carriage. Just as he was about to make more room for Jamel Xiao to take a nap comfortably, he was wrapped in his arms.
