Peaceful Farm Life

Chapter 800: Chapter 801: Are Xiao Changyi’s Words Especially Implicit?_1

An Jing watched Wang Youbao, carrying a sense of responsibility and always considering Li Wuyu’s perspective, and she genuinely felt that Li Wuyu was now as happy as she was.

Perhaps this was the kind of marriage one could only have by marrying for love.

After gently smiling at Li Wuyu, Wang Youbao turned around and spoke to An Jing and Xiao Changyi, ”Although I’m heading to the Imperial Capital, I’ll leave Erming to manage the Qian Wei Tavern. He’s been managing it whenever I’m not available, and he does it very well. He’s also loyal to me, so Master and Father, you can rest assured.”

Xiao Changyi continued to watch over his four children with an expressionless face.

An Jing, on the other hand, nodded with a smile. That Yu Erming was a reliable person. As for Wang Youbao leaving Qian Wei Tavern in Yu Erming’s hands, she had no objections.

Her husband certainly had no objections either.

Wang Youbao suddenly became sentimental, ”This time, Wuyu and I are going to the Capital, and we don’t know when we’ll be able to return. Master and Father, please take care of yourselves. Even if Wuyu and I don’t return, we will often write to you.”

An Jing intended to say that they would also be going to the Capital next spring, but thinking that mentioning it would require her to find excuses for why, she decided against it.

Besides, as soon as Wang Youbao meets Su Chengyu, and considering Su Chengyu is her husband’s sworn brother, it will not take long for Wang Youbao to realize that her husband is, in fact, Prince Yi.

Therefore, it would be better for Wang Youbao to discover it for himself than for her to waste her breath explaining.

When that time comes, Wang Youbao’s expression will certainly be quite amusing~

Li Wuyu really wanted to tell Wang Youbao An Jing and Xiao Changyi’s true identities, but without their permission, she dared not speak. So she could only continue to keep it a secret from Wang Youbao.

Only after Wang Youbao and Li Wuyu left did An Jing speak to Xiao Changyi, ”Husband, Chengyu’s actions are quite quick. He has already notified Prime Minister Li and arranged for Youbao to study at the Ministry of Revenue. I just wonder what Youbao’s expression will be when he meets Chengyu?”

Without waiting for Xiao Changyi to reply, An Jing chuckled, ”Youbao is really faint-hearted; he will probably be so frightened that his legs will turn to jelly.”

”However,” An Jing continued, ”Chengyu directly transferring him to the Capital not only pays respect to us but also to Prime Minister Li, allowing Prime Minister Li to see his daughter Wuyu more often. I’m sure Prime Minister Li is very grateful to Chengyu now.”

Xiao Changyi grunted, ”What I hate the most is exactly that.”

An Jing laughed, ”He is the Crown Prince. He has to consider and weigh many things. He has to bear the responsibility of the entire Xiyun Kingdom and secure his future position as Monarch while also having a kind heart and caring for the people. We can’t be too harsh on him; he truly has it tough.”

Xiao Changyi grunted again but said nothing.

An Jing was further amused and reached out to tug at his expressionless face, laughing, ”What are you grunting for? Am I not right?”

Xiao Changyi immediately said, ”You are right.”

”Then why are you behaving like this?”

”But I still don’t like him acting that way.”

”He is the Crown Prince after all. If he doesn’t possess some cunning, how can he be a good Emperor in the future? Surely you don’t want him to be so naive that just anyone can control him, ending up a puppet Emperor.”

Xiao Changyi fell silent for a moment, then spoke softly, ”He can be annoying in front of me, but being annoying has its benefits.”

His words were quite subtle.

An Jing found it funny.

Despite the subtlety, she understood clearly: her husband preferred the real Su Chengyu, who didn’t have as many schemings or concerns and sometimes was as naive as a child.
