In my dream of returning to the Tang Dynasty, I snatched Wu Zetian from my lap.

Li Yuanchang's carriage stopped in front of a rather quiet mansion in Lantian County.

"Your Highness."

As soon as he arrived, a large number of his confidants from the Black Ice Guard and Lantian County came out to greet him.

Li Yuanchang leaped into the snowy street, his white robe exuding the air of a refined gentleman, while his black brocade cloak added a touch of nobility and restraint.

Years have passed, and his demeanor has long since made him the foremost figure among the younger generation of the Tang Dynasty.

"Are they all inside?"

"Your Highness, they are all inside. They have been carefully taken care of throughout the journey, and there have been no accidents," Wu Yu said softly.

Li Yuanchang nodded and patted her waist: "You did a great job. You can go back now. Someone else will take over here."

"Yes."

Wu Yu nodded and left cleanly and neatly, her back view exuding the charm of a young woman.

Li Yuanchang pushed open the door and walked through the snow to the lobby.

Seemingly having heard the commotion outside, Wu Shi, Wu Shun, and Wu Lan, the three women, were all present.

They no longer lived a life of dependence on others, enjoying a life of luxury and comfort, as Wu Zetian took good care of them.

They were suddenly taken from Youzhou to Lantian County, a distance of thousands of miles away, and no one answered their questions along the way. They were now feeling lost and worried.

"It's him!!"

Inside the hall, Wu Shun exclaimed in surprise, her beautiful eyes widening.

Wu Shi and Wu Lan stood up one after the other.

They had all met Li Yuanchang more than once and were quite familiar with each other, but after many years, they still couldn't become a family.

Li Yuanchang looked at the three familiar faces, smiled, and then bowed with his hands clasped.

"Li Yuanchang pays his respects to his aunt."

"Eldest sister, third sister, it's been so many years, you've all grown up."

He was polite yet warm, still using the same address he used back then, even though the marriage had long since fallen through.

The old man and the two young men were all filled with shock!

It was Li Yuanchang who brought them here!

They stood there, completely stunned. Years had passed, and their appearances and voices had changed, but a sense of familiarity suddenly welled up in their hearts.

a long time.

Wu Shi came to her senses and appeared somewhat nervous and flustered.

"Wu Shi greets the King of Han."

"Wu Shun and Wu Lan pay their respects to the King of Han."

Li Yuanchang swiftly stepped forward to support Wu Shi, then smiled and said, "Auntie, such a grand gesture is beyond my ability to accept."

"We asked you to come here because the situation was sudden and the methods used were abrupt. We hope you will understand."

"I should have arrived earlier, but I was preoccupied with official duties and was delayed by a day. Please forgive me."

The way Madam Wu looked at her two daughters was strange and bewildered.

This is the Minister of War, a Grand General, and the most favored prince in the court! He is no longer the idle Prince of Han he once was; he has long been famous throughout the land and wields immense power!

Her eyes seemed to be asking, "How should I deal with this?"

"Your Highness, the King of Han, you flatter me."

"Please, please have a seat."

"Shun'er, Lan'er, quickly prepare tea."

"Yes!" The two women had just come to their senses and immediately went to prepare.

Li Yuanchang was both amused and exasperated; after five years apart, they had become complete strangers.

Soon after, the hot tea was boiling.

Li Yuanchang and Wu Shi sat on either side of him, while Wu Shun and Wu Lan stood behind him, occasionally glancing at Li Yuanchang.

The atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Li Yuanchang took a sip of tea and looked at the three of them.

"Aunt, eldest sister, third sister, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask. I've come here to welcome you and answer your questions."

Wu Shun's gaze was complicated, and he seemed hesitant to speak.

The youngest, Wu Lan, was more curious. She had never forgotten Li Yuanchang, who had even hugged her.

Lady Wu hesitated and said, "Your Highness, I wonder why you sent someone to bring us here...?"

Li Yuanchang put down his teacup and said seriously, "Actually, I have been searching for you all these years, but I have not heard from you since you left Chang'an."

"Later, I found Wu Yuanqing and his companion, cut off their fingers, and avenged you."

"Later, I found Meiniang."

Upon hearing this, the three members of the Wu family were all surprised.

"However, Mei Niang is avoiding me."

"I was thinking of bringing you back first, settling you in properly, and taking good care of you. Youzhou is too far away and bitterly cold. I'm afraid that if something happens, I won't be able to help you from a distance."

After hesitating, Li Yuanchang ultimately chose not to reveal what Wu Meiniang was currently doing, so as not to worry them.

"I see." Madam Wu nodded, appearing both friendly and reserved.

The Wu family's genes are indeed excellent. Both Wu Shun and Wu Lan are top-notch beauties, especially Wu Lan, who is not even sixteen years old and has an extremely high level of beauty.

Even though Wu Shi was a woman in her forties, and her skin wasn't in good condition due to the hardships she had endured in her early years, you could still see the features of her younger self, giving her a somewhat mature and youthful appearance.

"Your Highness, there's really no need for this."

"You don't owe us anything, and the affairs of the Martial Academy are not your responsibility."

"Perhaps it's just fate playing tricks on you; you were destined to meet but not to be together."

Li Yuanchang nodded.

"But no matter what, you will always be my family."

Upon hearing this, Madam Wu smiled helplessly, her emotions a mixture of gratitude and wistfulness.

They were both deeply in love.

pity……

She didn't know whether their reunion was a good thing or a bad thing.

Originally, Wu had her eye on Song Sanlang.

At this moment, Li Yuanchang pointed outside again: "If you need anything or have anything done, just tell him, and he will take care of it for you. You don't need to worry about Youzhou."

"I have already spoken to the governor of Youzhou."

Yuan Tong immediately went in. He was one of the earliest people to follow Li Yuanchang and had always been responsible for the security of the Prince of Han's residence. Now that he had been transferred here, it was clear that Li Yuanchang valued him highly.

"Greetings, Madam and Misses." Yuan Tong clasped his hands in greeting.

Upon seeing this, Wu Shi exchanged a glance with Wu Shun, and then couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, this... we were brought here without Meiniang's knowledge."

"I'm worried that Wu Zetian will be worried."

"Do you know where Meiniang is now?"

Li Yuanchang said, "Don't worry, I will inform her. She is fine, so there's no need to worry."

"I estimate... it won't be long before you two meet."

Upon hearing this, Wu felt as if she had been given a reassurance.

After hesitating for a moment, I couldn't help but ask, "Your Highness, did you bring us here just to take care of us?"

"You and Meiniang..."

Li Yuanchang said, "Auntie, it's just to take care of you, but for certain reasons, you can't return to live in the Martial Academy right now."

"As for me and Meiniang..."

He got stuck while speaking, unsure how to describe it.

Lady Wu, being understanding, stepped in to defuse the situation: "Alright, then thank you very much, Your Highness Prince Han."

"I just hope this won't cause you or the Princess Consort any trouble."

Clearly, she was also worried that such a relationship would anger the Princess Consort of Han.

"Won't."

"The princess also said that she wanted to bring you to live with her and take care of you," Li Yuanchang said.

Upon hearing this, the three girls were all surprised and somewhat disbelieving.

So generous?

Their daughters, sisters, and younger sisters were, strictly speaking, the first Princess Consort of Han, but the wedding was canceled on the day of the ceremony.
