Li Shimin faked his death? Then I will be powerful enough to conquer the world!

Chapter 659: Warm and Soft

Wang Wen returned to the small village where he had laughed in his childhood countless times in his dreams, but he had never imagined that one day the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would join him on the journey home.

The moment he boarded the train, Wang Wen still felt like he was dreaming.

This huge steel behemoth exudes a shocking atmosphere, and thick smoke rises from the front of the car with a roar.

The carriage was filled with the mixed smell of sweat, old leather and food. It was crowded and people were moving with difficulty in the narrow aisles.

Li Chengqian didn't care about this at all. He smiled and led Wang Wen to the seat next to him.

He was dressed in ordinary cloth, but his innate majesty made people around him look at him with curiosity.

Li Chengqian leaned slightly aside, a gentle smile on his face, and whispered, "Wang Wen, on this trip to Tianzhu, you've traveled across mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas, endured life-or-death trials, and achieved such remarkable feats. Yet, I haven't been able to reward you promptly. Do you ever feel any resentment?"

His eyes were sincere.

Wang Wen waved his hands hastily, his voice tinged with emotion. "Master, truly, whether or not there's a reward is of no consequence to me. Over the years, thanks to your teachings, I've always remembered that serving the people is our mission. We should focus on good deeds, not worry about the future, and never worry about personal gain or loss."

"If even you only care about your own selfish interests, then the Tang Dynasty will become the private property of one family. How can the people live and work in peace?"

"Since you are so dedicated to the public good and have such high moral character, why should I care about those empty names and profits?"

Wang Wen said this, his eyes full of determination.

The train sped along the winding tracks, and the scenery outside the window flew by.

From bustling towns lined with shops, to green fields with undulating wheat waves, to mountains shrouded in layers of peaks and clouds, we changed stations along the way and witnessed the diverse landscapes of the vast land of the Tang Dynasty.

At every stop, new passengers hurriedly board the train with different luggage and expressions, while old travelers leave reluctantly or resolutely.

After a long journey, everyone arrived at Taiyuan Station.

Wang Wen dragged his slightly tired body off the train, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. If it weren't for the train, returning to his hometown from Chang'an would be a long journey full of difficulties and obstacles. He would have to cross mountains and rivers, sleep in the open air, and who knows how much time and energy it would take.

After arriving at Taiyuan Station, Li Chengqian took a deep breath of fresh air, stretched himself, and a relaxed smile spread across his face. He waved his hand and said loudly, "Everyone, go and do whatever you want. Have a good two days in Taiyuan and relax."

"Remember, we will gather at this train station at this time two days from now and continue our journey."

This time, Li Chengqian had plenty of time and was completely immersed in a long-lost comfort. Every day, under Hu Bugui's meticulous care, he could sleep until he woke up naturally without any worries.

The moment Li Chengqian and his group walked out of the train carriage, their every move was closely watched by several people hiding in the dark.

In a corner of the train station, a thin boy with greed in his eyes excitedly said to the girl beside him, "Sister Ling, look at these people. You can tell at a glance that they are definitely not ordinary people."

"The aura they exude is undeniable. They are definitely wealthy patrons."

The man rubbed his hands together as he spoke, looking impatient. He continued, "Look again, there are so many people surrounding us. Even if they look ordinary in their clothes, the style in their every move is undeniable."

"I think if we can pull off this job, we'll definitely make a killing."

"No matter how you look at it, they all look like wealthy businessmen. They must have a lot of cash on them."

The woman called Sister Ling frowned and stared at Li Chengqian and his group. For some reason, she felt a strong sense of uneasiness in her heart for no reason.

This uneasiness made her feel uncomfortable all over. Her heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, and her heart felt like it was hanging in mid-air, unable to land.

"Sister Ling, they're about to leave. It will be too late if we don't take action now."

"We've waited so long and finally caught a wave of big fish. If we just let them go, we brothers will be hungry again for the next few days."

The thin boy urged anxiously, his voice somewhat unwilling.

Li Chengqian and his group walked out of the train station. The warm sunshine shone on them unreservedly, making them feel warm all over and extremely comfortable.

It is the beginning of summer now. The breeze blows gently, and the air is filled with the faint fragrance of flowers and freshly cut grass. This is the time of year when the temperature is the most comfortable and pleasant.

Li Chengqian turned his head and slowly glanced at the magnificent Taiyuan Station behind him.

The station is huge, with people coming and going like a tide, making it extremely bustling.

"Yes, this Taiyuan Station is really well built."

Li Chengqian looked at the bustling scene in front of him and sighed sincerely, with a gratified smile on his face.

The completion of this station means that people can travel more conveniently and go to more places. They no longer have to be tied to the land all their lives and have to rely on hard work to make a living.

Zhang Xianhuai remained vigilant at all times, carefully guarding Li Chengqian. His eyes kept scanning the crowd around him, and with a serious expression, he whispered a warning: "Master, there are many people here, all kinds of people, you must be careful not to be targeted by those with bad intentions."

Li Chengqian nodded slightly, without refuting Zhang Xianhuai's words. Although he believed that the world was now peaceful and he no longer had any enemies, people's hearts were unpredictable, and it was inevitable that some people would harbor resentment towards him.

He still has many grand blueprints in his heart that have not been realized, and countless major tasks are waiting for him to accomplish.

When he was young, he was fearless and full of fearless courage, but for some reason, at this moment, he suddenly began to cherish his life more than anyone else and fear death more than anyone else.

Just as they were walking slowly forward, a young girl came hurriedly towards them.

The girl walked quickly and looked panicked, as if something very urgent had happened.

Suddenly, she seemed to be tripped by something, her foot suddenly missed the mark, and she fell forward uncontrollably, about to fall to the ground.

Zhang Xianhuai reacted extremely quickly. He took a step forward and stood firmly in front of Li Chengqian.

Wang Wen was still immersed in the joy of returning to his hometown. He walked happily, thinking about the familiar faces and warm smiles of his family members at home. The next second, he felt a soft body fall into his arms without warning.

The girl raised her head, her face flushed and her eyes panicked: "I'm...I'm sorry."

Wang Wen was a little embarrassed, his face flushed slightly. He quickly reached out to steady the girl and stammered, "It's okay, it's okay. You...you be careful."
