Although Li Chen was somewhat surprised by Liu Sichun's sudden invitation, he had been immersed in the tedious affairs of state for days. With the new policy just being implemented and the urgent situation at Yueya Pass, Li Chen himself felt immense pressure.

So without hesitation, she readily agreed.

Anyway, the sky won't fall in a day or two. People always need to change their mood.

For the Liu family, the sudden arrival of the Crown Prince sent everyone into a frenzy.

All clan members in the capital who had not traveled outside for business would gather. Every single one of them would put on new clothes and dress neatly and cleanly. They would thoroughly clean their residences inside and out, from top to bottom, leaving no crevice on the eaves untouched. Every corner would be spotless.

Not only that, the Liu family also quickly went to hire the best chefs from several top restaurants in the capital city, bringing them along with their cooking utensils. This left the restaurant owners fuming, but after being bribed by a few ingots of silver from the Liu family, they all smiled and sent these people off.

Such an important day, even more so than the Lunar New Year and more sacred than ancestor worship, just fell upon the Liu family unexpectedly.

The gate to Liu's residence was imposing, much grander than an average household. However, compared to an official's mansion, it was still lacking in scale. Just pick any random government official in the capital city, and their house would likely have a more impressive entrance than Liu's.

It's not that the Liu family is poor, but they are avoiding it.

After all, in the Qin Empire, merchants are still one of the lowest social classes, second only to slaves.

Li Chen walked on foot, followed by Wan Jiaojiao and Liu Sichun. Behind them were several guards in bright clothes from the Jinyiwei, and dozens of experts were hidden nearby in secret. As long as there was any abnormality, they could appear immediately to protect their master.

The entire Liu family, over twenty people from young to old, had all gathered at the doorstep in Beijing.

"Greetings, Your Highness, the Crown Prince."

Under Liu Sid's leadership, the Liu family respectfully knelt down to greet him with a grand ceremony.

"Rise up."

Li Chen walked forward with his hands behind his back, not caring about the grand gifts from the Liu family.

He himself doesn't particularly like these formalities, but these are just the cultural norms of this era, and he doesn't need to go out of his way to be overly polite.

But as he was passing by, he saw a little girl with rosy cheeks and a lively spirit being held down to kneel on the ground by her nursemaid. Yet she kept blinking at him with wide eyes, which made Li Chen laugh.

Stopping his steps, Li Chen bent down and pinched the chubby cheeks of the doll, asking, "What's your name"

The child didn't understand anything about status or social hierarchy. They didn't know what respect meant. When someone asked their name, they weren't afraid and answered in a sweet, childish voice: "My name is Liu He!"

"Auntie hug!"

Liu He saw Liu Sichun behind Li Chen. He opened his little hands and stretched his body hard, calling out to her with a snow-white cry.

This adorable look is truly heart-melting.

Liu Sichun glanced at Li Chen and signaled to Liu He with her eyes, forbidding him from making a fuss.

Liuhè is just a little child, how could he understand so much He just wanted to get closer to his aunt but was rejected. Feeling wronged, he pouted and burst into tears.

The Liu family was terrified.

After all, this person in front of us is the Crown Prince. Who knows how the Crown Prince's temper and preferences are If His Highness finds it noisy, wouldn't it be a major disaster

Liu Sida's face turned pale with fright.

Liu He is his son.

"But I saw Li Chen burst out laughing, bent down and picked up Liu He directly, saying, "Auntie won't hold you, this palace will hold you. Come on, let's go in and play."the palace these past few days"Su Jinpa heard this and knew that Li Chen didn't want to talk business with him for the time being. He said softly, "Getting used to something new takes time, but you'll...
