Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng mention the cave, she immediately laughed.

If you hadnt mentioned it, I would have forgotten that place! Then which way are we going now?

After Luo Cheng pondered for a moment, he shook his head.

Youll go. I wont go! I have to go to the capital! Luo Cheng said.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was shocked and grabbed Luo Chengs arm. Husband, its too dangerous for you to go to the capital now!

Xiaoran, I have to go! Prince Fu can slander me, but I have to defend myself. Otherwise, our businesses in Sichuan will be taken away by Prince Fu! Therefore, I have to go to the capital, but you cant follow me! Go to the cave and wait. As long as youre safe, I have nothing to worry about! Luo Cheng said firmly.

Li Xiaoran shook her head vigorously and said, No, I want to follow you! Ill be wherever you are! Husband, dont even think about abandoning me! If you want to go to the capital, I wont stop you, but I want to follow you! Have you ever thought about how youll answer to Prince Fu if you go alone and I dont?

But if you follow me, youll be my weakness! Prince Fu cant do anything to me, so hell attack you! Xiaoran, with you around, Ill be restrained! I know you want to fight side by side with me, but if you stay here, youll be fighting side by side with me! Moreover, if you stay here, youll be the greatest help to me! Luo Cheng placed his hands on Li Xiaorans shoulders and bent down slightly.

As Li Xiaoran looked into Luo Chengs calm eyes, tears rolled down her face.

At this moment, Li Xiaoran felt very sad.

She knew that she should listen to Luo Cheng, but she couldnt bear to, or perhaps she was too afraid!

She was afraid that she would never be able to see the person in front of her again after they parted ways!

At this moment, Li Xiaoran was no longer a tough or rational person. She hugged Luo Cheng as she cried.

There were no cries, but anyone could sense the uneasiness and reluctance in her heart.

At this moment, no one spoke. Instead, they waited quietly.

Actually, everyone knew that going to the capital this time was dangerous.

Whether he could survive or not was unknown.

Luo Cheng didnt speak. He only hugged Li Xiaoran as he patted her back gently to comfort her.

After Li Xiaoran cried, she felt a little better.

The wheel of fate was often ruthless.

Once it started spinning, it would crush them mercilessly. No one would know if the person being crushed was sad or happy.

People believed that they could change fate, but there were also times when one felt powerless.

At this moment, Li Xiaoran felt helpless.

She could have a lot of knowledge and wisdom, but she couldnt compete with fate.

She wanted to protect her family, but she also wanted her lover to live a

peaceful life.

When they couldnt have both, they could only face the difficulties head-on!

Li Xiaoran knew that Luo Cheng had too many responsibilities. He couldnt hide when he was in danger again!

He was a man, so he had to bear the responsibility!

After crying, Li Xiaoran came back to her senses. She wiped her tears with a

handkerchief as she said in a choked voice, Dont worry, Ill go to the cave and wait for you to come back! You have to remember to come back safely. Im waiting tor you!

As Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran, he suppressed his reluctance.

Zi Cheng will follow you. Although youll be in the cave, there will be many things that need your decision! Xiaoran, I believe you can handle everything! You have to believe me too. I can handle everything!

Li Xiaoran nodded at Luo Cheng. Alright, you can leave!

Luo Cheng nodded, then counted the people and divided them into two groups before taking half of them away.

Luo Cheng didnt dare to look back or even hug Li Xiaoran again. He was also afraid!

He was afraid that he wouldnt be able to leave after hugging her!

After Li Xiaoran watched Luo Cheng leave, she calmed down and rushed towards the cave with the others.

When they arrived at the cave, it was already two hours later.

When she came to the cave again, Li Xiaoran was surprised to find that there was actually someone guarding it.

Not only were there guards, but there were also many things prepared in the cave.

There was food, clothes, accommodation, and everything else.

The original cave had already been decorated and turned into a very cozy home.

Even those vegetable fields were filled with lush vegetables and fruits.

When Li Xiaoran saw this, she was slightly relieved.

At this moment, Zi Cheng walked over and handed a note to Li Xiaoran. Madam, Mr. Luo has already entered the capital!

After Li Xiaoran took the note and opened it, she saw a line of words. We entered the capital safely. Dont worry!

After Li Xiaoran received this news, she immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

In the capital, Luo Cheng didnt return to his residence. Instead, he went to the house that the emperor had rewarded him with.

After returning, Luo Cheng realized that there were actually many secret guards in the house.

Why are you guys here? Luo Cheng looked at the group in confusion.

Mr. Luo, we listened to the late emperors order and stayed here to wait for you to come back! The leader appeared in front of Luo Cheng and took out a token.

The Dark Dragon Guards listened to the emperor.

If the leader of the Dark Dragon Guards handed the token to Luo Cheng, it meant that the Dark Dragon Guards would listen to Luo Chengs orders in the future.

Father, did you give any instructions back then?

The leader of the Dark Dragon Guards nodded and took out a letter.

Luo Cheng took the letter and opened it.

The letter contained these words:

Luo Cheng, I know that I dont have much time left, so I made a few arrangements! When you see this letter, Ill probably be dead already! Its useless to say anything else, so I can only make arrangements to protect your life! I know that youre uninterested in the throne, so I handed the Dark Dragon Guards to you! Firstly, I want to protect your safety, and secondly, I want to hand the Dark Dragon Guards to you to take care of! I believe that youll use them to protect yourself and the people you care about! Thats my greatest compensation to you!

As for the throne, leave it to your Third Brother! If he has the ability, help him if you want! If you dont want to help your Third Brother, live the life you want! This is all I can do for you! If theres a next life, I hope you can meet a parent who really dotes on you! Dont devote yourself to the royal family anymore!

The letter ended at this point.

After Luo Cheng read it. he had mixed feelings..
