dred gold-colored paper notes, very delicate.This is the most popular and beloved type of paper among people in the human world. Each sheet is slightly larger than an adult's palm and used for writing..."I'll tell Ai Bei to ask Grandma for what she wants. Make it a formal marriage, bringing her into the Li family with everyone knowing! We'll settle down in Quanzhou." Jia Xi laughed, sounding mischievous. "Grandma is the type who can't stand unfairness. She's afraid of causing discord between us brothers, so she'll definitely agree."

Then I will say that we should first bring Aibei to Xindu to pay our respects and then return for the wedding. Our family home is in Quanzhou, which will make it convenient for Aibei and me to return often in the future.

"Grandma, my mother, and Aunt Four will all stay and help me prepare things."

"That's a great idea!" Li Zhensheng immediately nodded in approval and said, "Originally, our Li family would have to follow the proper customs when marrying a daughter-in-law, but we can't treat someone less favorably just because they aren't a Heavenly Martial woman."

Jia Xi glanced at the doorway, lowered her voice and added a few more words.

"We were lucky this time, we met two bandits..."

Immediately, the smiles on everyone's faces disappeared, replaced by expressions of surprise, which then shifted to understanding.

"It was her!"

"I suspected her from the start, but I didn't think it would actually be true."

A few of them couldn't help but whisper in surprise.

Li Zhensheng was afraid the boys wouldn't know what was at stake, so he quickly instructed: "As soon as you receive word, immediately send them back to Xindu. Don't follow the envoy's fleet, and minimize the risk. About this matter, don't tell anyone, keep it in your gut, understand"

Jia Yi and the others immediately nodded their heads, only then did Li Zhensheng feel relieved.

After chatting for a while, Li Zhensheng sent someone to the backyard to inform them. Then he took Jiaxi, Jiayi and Liu Yang to the military camp.

Maoge'r couldn't sit still and trotted after them.

In the backyard, Old Li was helping Tao Hongying and Zhao Yuru rummage through their suitcases.

Over the years, they have spared no effort in making clothes and shoes for Jiaxi and Jiani.

Unfortunately, after doing one batch after another, he never waited for the person to come back, so in the end, it all went to Cat Brother.

That's right, Jiayin should have two sets of clothes, occasionally dressing up as a boy when she goes out to play.

Now, Jiayi and Jianan are finally back!

Zhao Yuru smiled broadly and said, “Didn't people say that food from the sea is not good for one’s growth But look at Xi Ge’er, this child has grown so much! If he continues to eat well, he might even hit his head on the ceiling.”

Huiniang, Liu's wife, and Wen's wife were all sitting beside him, joining in the fun. Hearing this, they all started laughing along.

Tao Hongying missed her son and said, “When Xiguo and Anguo left home, they were about the same height. Now, Anguo should be as tall as Xiguo, right”

"The food on the sea isn't good, but they frequently come ashore and change their water and soil. How could they not grow taller"

"That's just the way it is!" Zhao Yuru tugged at her sapphire-blue blouse and said with regret, "It's just that these two boys are as dark as charcoal. Such a bright color probably wouldn't suit them."

"Madam Wen couldn't help but laugh, "When the children weren't back, what were you hoping for Now that they're back, you complain about them getting taller. "

"If I were a young man, I'd just marry a woman outside and have children. I wouldn't come back to listen to your nagging."

"They dare! Those little rascals still want to make a ruckus!" Tao Hongying glared and scolded with a smile, "Dare not to listen From now on, they won't be allowed to have any delicious food anymore, starve them out."

Everyone recalled Jia Xi's eating appearance just now and burst into laughter.

Indeed, this threat must be effective!

As they were talking, Zheng Qi came over from the front and reported, "Madam, Old Master has taken the young masters to the military camp. He should be back very late. Old Master said, please don't worry about him, and rest early."

"Okay, I understand." Lao Li smiled and replied, then asked, "I heard Zheng Si is back too. You brothers haven't seen each other in a long time, have a good reunion. Whatever you want to eat, just tell the kitchen to make it, don't be shy."

"Greetings, Lady Zheng!" Zheng Qi hurriedly bowed, his eyes gleaming with delight.

He and Zheng Si weren't blood brothers, but they came from the same family. They grew up together learning martial arts from a young age, even closer than actual siblings.

After years apart, it's wonderful to reunite at last. There are so many things we need to catch up on.

With the old lady's instructions, he went to the kitchen to get some good dishes and a jar of wine. The brothers toasted each other happily.

Seeing Zheng Qili stagger out, Tao Hongying also put down her clothes and said, "At dinnertime, the big brother and the others didn't eat much. I'm going to the kitchen to stew some bone soup, and when the big brother and the others come back, we'll have noodles."

"Just the other day, I made some small dishes that would go perfectly with soup noodles."

As she spoke, she hurried to the kitchen.

Li Lao smiled and said, “Now that the two boys are back, Hongying's culinary skills will have even more admirers. She'll be busy again.”

"It's good to be busy," Zhao Yuru replied, "As long as the children like it, no matter how busy their mother is, she will be happy."

Mrs. Huì and Mrs. Wēn and the others also nodded in agreement.

The love of parents for their children is always unconditional!

Back at the Hailing Army camp, General Tang was somewhat surprised to hear that Li's uncle and nephew had requested an audience.

After all, it was getting late. Unless it was an urgent matter, the Li family wouldn't be so out of line.

As expected, Li Zhensheng and the others entered the main tent. Jiaxi’s first action was to present his waist token from the Department of Foreign Affairs.

When the Foreign Affairs Department sent people abroad on a secret mission, General Tang knew about it. He even knew that two of them were Li's sons.

Otherwise, he would not allow Jiayì to go out to sea every day and wander around.

Over the past two years, he occasionally mentioned privately that he thought Li's son was likely to die young.

The ocean is merciless, with dangers lurking everywhere. Swallowing hundreds of people is almost like a joke.

To my surprise, the young master Li came back unharmed.

"Just come back, just come back!" General Tang scrutinized Jixiang carefully, liking him more and more with each glance.

This kid looks good, he seems smart at first glance. He's tall, with a straight back and full of energy.

With his years of experience leading soldiers, this kid must have gotten his hands dirty with blood. Behind the constant smile, there's a glint of sharpness in his eyes.

Thinking of his elderly wife constantly mentioning wanting to marry their granddaughter off to the Li family, he felt a bit more satisfied with the prospect of her future son-in-law.

Jia Xi felt a bit uneasy being looked at like this, mentally complaining that the old general's expression resembled that of a matchmaker.

But he dared not speak it aloud. He respectfully bowed and reported, "General, on this voyage, we brought back eight envoys from foreign nations. They wish to travel to the new capital to pay their respects and meet with the Emperor."

"I'm afraid I would have to trouble the General to send ships to sea to greet us, and after we dock, as well as reporting to the court, I would also have to rely on the General."

"Alright, that's expected." General Tang, upon hearing that envoys from eight nations had arrived, immediately put aside his personal gain and quickly calculated in his mind, his eyes lighting up.

Across the vast oceans, eight nations gather!

This message sent to the new capital, the emperor and the court will surely be pleased.

After all, everyone loves the feeling of putting on makeup.

Especially the emperor, losing Jiangbei in his hands is absolutely a stain on history.

Now that this blemish is about to be eliminated, adding a touch of gold powder on top is simply icing on the cake.

Babies, there's only one update today, and it will be like this for the next few days because four people in my family are down with illness, and even I am starting to struggle~~s and the empress behind her, then "the white cloud between heaven and earth" would belong to them. And with the third princess and the empress in their grasp, wouldn't they be carefree forever!"There...
