Transmigrated As My Former Uncle's Sweetheart

The frontier bordering Danjue was a five-day journey from the West Water Frontier.

Five days later, the party finally arrived at the frontier, travel-worn and weary.

By that time, the situation at the frontier had already been stabilized.

Ling Lihua had developed the antidote which helped the soldiers recover from their illness.

Although more than half of the soldiers had been poisoned, Lu Tingchen was not slacking off in the slightest when it came to their drills.

The military camp was now divided into two areas, one for the soldiers who were recovering from the poison, and the other for the healthy ones.

Therefore, the sick soldiers recuperated in the first area, while those in the other area had to train every day.

While the young general and his soldiers were doing their training drills at the drill ground, several people on horseback galloped up to the camp. After being inspected by the guards on duty, they entered the camp quietly.

Lu Liangwei could hear the sound of the troops training at the drill ground in the distance.

As her party got closer, she suddenly heard the soldiers burst into a chorus of cheers.

"Nice!"

Lu Liangwei looked in their direction, only to see the young general twirling his spear on the raised platform.

Each form and movement seemed to carry the mighty force of a thunderbolt, earning him admiring cries from the hot-blooded soldiers.

After the soldiers had dispersed in an orderly fashion, Lu Tingchen came down from the platform with his silver spear in hand.

Just then, a sorrel horse galloped up to him, kicking up a cloud of dust in its wake.

Lu Tingchen furrowed his brow.

He had always been a strict military leader, and no soldier had ever dared to behave so brashly in front of him.

Thinking that it must be a soldier with an urgent report, he lifted his head, only to be stunned by the sight before him.

"Big Bro, you got tanned." Lu Liangwei was sitting on her horse, dressed in men's clothes. She had rushed over to give him a surprise, but when she saw how tanned and angular his face had become as well as his hard, stony expression, her eyes brimmed with tears.

Lu Tingchen stared at her blankly.

When he finally came to his senses, he abruptly tossed his silver spear aside, dashed forward, and pulled her off her horse and into his arms.

"Why are you here, you little brat?" He was known as the iron-willed general among his soldiers, but at this moment, he found himself choking up.

Caught off guard by the sudden tug, Lu Liangwei bumped her head on his hard armor.

The impact dazed her for a bit, and just when she was about to speak, Long Yang came riding up to them. "Lu Tingchen!"

Hearing his voice, Lu Tingchen immediately collected his swirling thoughts. Ending his brief catch-up with Lu Liangwei, he hastily released his hold on her and dropped to one knee. "Your Majesty."

Long Yang got off his horse and pulled Lu Liangwei over so that she stood beside him. When he saw the red mark on her forehead, he frowned.

He massaged the spot for her until the redness faded, then stepped forward and helped Lu Tingchen up.

"Thank you for your hard work all this time."

Lu Tingchen was exhilarated. "I was only doing my job, Your Majesty." He looked at Lu Liangwei with undisguisable joy in his eyes, and remembering something, performed a fist and palm salute to them. "I haven't congratulated both of you on the birth of your children."

Long Yang's stern face could not help breaking into a smile. "Congratulations to you on becoming an uncle too."

Lu Tingchen's steely countenance finally melted into a sincere smile. He instinctively reached out to pat Weiwei's head, but a glance at the Emperor prompted him to stifle the urge and move his hand to stroke his nose instead. "Let's have tea in the tent."

As he led the way, he caught sight of a certain female guard, and his dark eyes narrowed.

After they entered the main tent, Lu Tingchen's personal guard immediately brought them tea.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness, I'm afraid you'll have to put up with our low-quality tea for the time being." Lu Tingchen took the tea from the guard and served it to Long Yang and Lu Liangwei.

Once the guard was gone, Lu Liangwei whined, "We're family, Big Bro. Why are you being so formal?"

Long Yang nodded in agreement. "We're family, so let's just be comfortable around each other."

Hearing this, Lu Tingchen loosened up and sat down not far from them. "Did you come from the Yan Kingdom?"

Lu Liangwei was not surprised that he knew.

Since Minister Lin had come to the frontier in the Emperor's name, her parents and brother must have learned that the Emperor had gone to the Yan Kingdom. In fact, Minister Lin must have informed them of the situation the moment he arrived so they could help to shield the truth.
