His Majesty was right. He had done enough for the people in the country. Great Shang was in its most prosperous period because of him.

Why could he not be selfish for once?

The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess had nothing to say after that.

In the end, she could only say, Please be careful, Your Majesty. Safety first.

Dont worry, Grandmother. I will make sure of that, but I will need your help with the Palace affairs and the children, Long Yang said seriously.

I would do my best even if you didnt ask me, Your Majesty. When are you planning to leave the Palace? The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess asked. Great Shang was more than a thousand miles away from the Yan Kingdom. The journey was long and he would be away for a long time.

When the time comes, I will use the excuse of rewarding the soldiers at the frontier and leave the Palace. Ill get someone to take my place in the Emperors carriage halfway through the journey to the frontier while I bring some men with me to the Yan Kingdom. Long Yang briefly informed her of his plan.

The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess nodded. Do you have someone in mind, Your Majesty? She was referring to the person who would pretend to be the Emperor to head to the frontier.

The Minister of Revenue, Minister Lin. I think he is the most suitable, said Long Yang.

The Dowager d.u.c.h.ess nodded in agreement. Since Your Majesty has decided, there is no need for me to say anything else.

Long Yang was relieved.

The next day, Long Yang called Minister Lin to his imperial study before the start of the imperial court session.

Minister Lin knew that Long Yang must have already read the letter and was prepared to tell him about the plan of sending him, Minister Lin, to the Yan Kingdom and save the Empress under the pretense of wis.h.i.+ng the Yan Kingdoms Emperor a happy birthday. However, Long Yang informed Minister Lin of his own plan before the other man could say a word.

This time, I would need to trouble Minister Lin to pretend to be me and head to the frontier to reward the soldiers.

Minister Lin was stunned. When he realized what he had just heard, he immediately tried to advise the emperor against it. Your Majesty, I dont think this is appropriate. Youre the ruler of this land, how can you endanger yourself?

Long Yang was not angry, but asked instead, Do you have a better suggestion, Minister Lin?

If you can trust me, I am willing to head to the Yan Kingdom to save Her Highness. Minister Lin informed Long Yang of the plan he had thought of yesterday. The timing coincides with the birthday of the Emperor of the Yan Kingdom. I can visit them as an envoy. Wouldnt that be more convenient than you heading to the Yan Kingdom personally, Your Majesty?

Long Yang said approvingly, That is a very good plan, Minister Lin.

Minister Lin was relieved. He thought he had managed to stop His Majesty from going to the Yan Kingdom. However, the next moment, he heard the Emperor say in a deep voice, Tomorrow I will journey to the Yan Kingdom using your ident.i.ty, Minister Lin. You will head to the frontier to reward the soldiers and generals in my name.

Minister Lin was shocked. He was about to say something when Long Yang said firmly, I have made the decision. Theres no need for you to say anything more, Minister Lin. You should go ahead and make preparations.

Minister Lin sighed. Things had already come to this point, so there was nothing much he could say. So, he replied respectfully, Your wish is my command.

After Minister Lin left, Long Yang went to the Grand Phoenix Palace.

He went to see Jier first.

Jier was living with Chu Qi.

After returning from the foot of Thousand Feet Cliff, Chief Physician Lin had diagnosed Chu Qi again. Unfortunately, Chu Qis condition did not improve.

He still did not remember the past and his eyes still could not see.

As for Jier, she became more dependent on the young man and needed him to hold her before she was willing to sleep or eat. Long Yang had no choice. Aside from arranging for the hunter and his wife to help take care of Jier and Chu Qis daily routines, he had also arranged for another nanny for Jier.

However, for some reason, Jier did not like breast milk, but preferred cows milk or goats milk. The nanny ended up being nothing but a decoration.

When Long Yang arrived, Chu Qi was holding Jier and standing in the corridor.

He could not see but his hearing was superb. Chu Qi turned his head almost immediately and walked toward where Long Yang was.

Lil Qi, His Majesty is here to see the little princess. Zhao Qian quickly said this out loud when he saw Chu Qi acting that way. He could not help but sigh silently in his heart.
