Chapter 164 Departure to Nanxun Kingdom
Chapter 164 Departure to Nanxun Kingdom
Three months passed by in a flash.
Ye Qingyao specifically asked the Imperial Astronomical Observatory to select an auspicious day for going out - March 21st.
This morning, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing, as if it was sending the best blessings for this trip.
Hua Xin prepared everything early, and then set off from Taichu Gate in high spirits.
Sitting in the spacious and comfortable carriage, she closed her eyes comfortably and lay quietly on Nangong Ziqiu's warm legs, enjoying the tranquility and peace of mind.
At this moment, Mo Chuli, who was sitting next to her, carefully picked up a bright red strawberry and gently placed it to Hua Xin's lips.
Hua Xin opened her mouth slightly and took a bite of the strawberry. Immediately, a sweet and sour taste filled her mouth.
She couldn't help but exclaim in satisfaction: "Mm, this strawberry is sour and sweet, and tastes great! Ziqiu, you should try it too, Chuli, don't miss it!"
So, Hua Xin showed her generosity and thoughtfulness, stretched out her hands, took a strawberry in each hand, and handed them to Nangong Ziqiu and Mo Chuli respectively.
This way, everyone can taste this delicious fruit and share the joyful moment.
At the same time, Song Guanqing, as the accompanying doctor, was sitting in another carriage with Baizhu and Baimu.
Although he couldn't see, Song Guanqing could stand on one leg for a while, which was much better than before.
Baizhu and Baimu were very happy to see that Song Guanqing was recovering well.
"Sir, are we really the accompanying doctors on this trip to Nanxun Kingdom?" Bai Zhu always felt unsure, after all, they all knew the truth.
"We are originally from Medicine King Valley, so it's not wrong to say that. If anyone in the team has a headache or fever, you can treat them if you can. There are post stations along the way, and we will pass through towns, so there should be no shortage of medicinal materials." Song Guanqing said.
"Sir, it's great that you can stand up now. I believe that you will be fully recovered in the near future! I didn't expect that the young lady is so amazing!" Bai Xi's admiration for Hua Xin is almost catching up with Song Guanqing.
"Of course, Huahua is very powerful." Song Guanqing said with a smile.
Bai Zhu saw Song Guanqing smiling, and hurriedly pulled Bai Zhu's sleeve: "Bai Zhu, have you noticed that the gentleman has smiled a lot more than he did six months ago?"
Bai Xi nodded and said gratefully, "This is all thanks to the care and treatment of the young lady. If it weren't for her, it would have been difficult for the master to recover so smoothly. After all, this is something that even the old master can't do anything about!"
"That's right, sir. Should we write a letter to the old gentleman?"
Speaking of the old gentleman, he is Song Guanqing’s master, the old miracle doctor in Yaowang Valley.
It seems like after I sent a letter, I never received a reply.
Song Guanqing nodded and said, "Write a letter when you have time! Master didn't reply, I wonder if he's angry."
"That shouldn't be the case! They say the old man is in seclusion, maybe he's busy!"
Perhaps worried that Song Guanqing would be unhappy about this, Bai Zhu quickly changed the subject.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Bai Zhu stuck his head out and looked outside, only to see a group of people gathered in front of him. He had no idea what was going on.
"Sir, something seems to have happened up ahead. The carriage has stopped. How about I go and take a look?" Bai Zhu said to Bai Mi, and wanted to jump off the carriage to take a look, but was stopped by Song Guanqing.
"We are following behind Huahua's carriage. If you get off, what if you leave again? Don't join in the fun. If anything happens, Huahua will send someone to tell you."
"Okay, I'll listen to you, sir."
It turned out that Ye Lansheng was leading the Eighteen Qinglong Guards and waiting in the suburbs. When they saw Hua Xin's convoy coming, they thought of escorting them all the way to the next post station.
When Hua Xin in the carriage heard that Ye Lansheng was coming to see her off personally, there was a hint of surprise in her eyes.
Because in secret, Hua Moxuan's people have been protecting her along the way, so it is equivalent to having two groups of people protecting her?
"Xinxin, do you want to go down?"
Nangong Ziqiu asked.
"I really need to go talk to him. After all, we haven't seen each other for several months."
The only man Hua Xin truly has now is Ye Lansheng, so she has to cultivate their relationship well before leaving.
What if we haven’t seen each other for three to five months and our feelings fade?
Hua Xin jumped off the carriage, and Ye Lansheng ran over directly upon seeing this.
"Why did you jump down?"
"How can I sit in the carriage peacefully when you came to see me off in person?"
Hua Xin saw Mo Yun and hurried over to touch its head.
"Mo Yun, can you give me a ride?"
Mo Yun let out a hissing sound, obviously agreeing, and even rubbed Hua Xin's palm.
"go!"
Ye Lansheng carried Hua Xin onto the horse and sat behind her.
The two of them rode together and slowly moved forward.
At this point, the convoy continued to move forward.
The ceremonial guard of the princess on her diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Nanxun was large in scale, majestic and eye-catching.
The team was made up of thousands of people, dressed in gorgeous costumes, holding various flags and weapons, and marching in unison.
Walking in the front was a group of cavalrymen riding tall horses, wearing golden armor and silver helmets, looking very majestic; following closely behind them were rows of palace maids dressed in gorgeous costumes, holding flower baskets or musical instruments, walking lightly with graceful postures; behind them were a large number of strong guards, holding long spears and sharp shields, with serious expressions, always vigilant.
In addition, there were many maids and attendants following on both sides of the team, ready to provide various services to Hua Xin at any time.
The entire guard of honor stretched for several miles, and wherever it went, it attracted countless people to watch, and people were amazed at the spectacular scene.
However, all this was requested by Ye Qingyao. He believed that the diplomatic mission to Nanxun Kingdom must be grand and solemn and must not show weakness in front of others.
But Hua Xin had her own unique plan in mind. When they arrived at the border between the two countries, she planned to split the team into two.
On the one hand, she would go with Nangong Ziqiu and several others, and carefully disguise themselves as ordinary people going out for fun. In this way, they could keep a low profile and not attract attention; on the other hand, the guard of honor could just follow the original route. It would not matter if they arrived at the capital of Nanxun first. If Hua Xin failed to arrive in time, she could find all kinds of excuses to explain it away.
After all, the initiative of when to meet the Queen is entirely in her hands.
Nanxun Kingdom is to the west of Daxia Kingdom, and this route is completely new to Hua Xin.
The next city is called Xiliu City. Someone has already made arrangements at the post station in advance, so as long as Hua Xin’s team arrives, they can get a good rest.
Ye Lansheng’s destination is also here, he cannot send her anywhere further.
