They were almost at Jinjiang.
Soon, Jing Rong gave the order to depart.
He seemed to be in a hurry.
The guards under him were also very fast. They packed everything up in the time it took for an incense stick to burn.
Jing Rong stood at the yamen's entrance and watched as everything was loaded into the carriages.
When Lang Po was done, he asked curiously, "Your Highness, didn't you say to wait for the new official to arrive?"
"There's no need to wait."
"Yes."
"Also, let the yamen's advisor take over and wait for the new county magistrate to arrive."
"Yes."
Jing Rong's eyes darkened as he spoke.
When everything was ready, those who needed to get on the horses were already on board.
Tang Si shamelessly wanted to get on Ji Yunshu's carriage.
Unfortunately …
Mo Ruo picked her up like a little chick and carried her into his carriage.
"Don't disturb others!"
"Let go. I want to sit with Ah Ji."
"If you want to follow us, you'd better behave. Otherwise, we'll throw you out."
"Let go!"
She gritted her teeth in anger, but she was already thrown into the carriage.
Mo Ruo's voice came from the carriage, "If you want to learn medicine, don't make so much noise. You're making my eardrums hurt."
Tang Si was indignant, but she really wanted to learn medicine from him.
Hence, she endured it.
Ji Yunshu led Wei Yi into the carriage, and Jing Rong followed.
The three of them rode together.
Wei Yi leaned on her shoulder to rest. His deep eyes were wide open, but they were unfocused. She couldn't tell where he was looking at.
Ji Yunshu allowed him to do as he pleased and helped him pull up his cloak.
She reached out to check his forehead and found that his fever had subsided.
Only then did she feel relieved.
But when she thought of Mo Ruo's words, she was puzzled.
Jing Rong saw her actions, but he couldn't tell what he was feeling.
Ji Yunshu suddenly thought of something and asked Jing Rong, "Why didn't I see Aunty Xie just now?"
"She has already left for Yufu. We don't know how long it will take, so I ordered someone to escort her there."
She nodded.
Soon, the carriages left Anfu County.
Zhao Huai and the others, who had been following behind them, followed them without a doubt.
I really can't get rid of this sticky candy!
However, they did not expect that not long after they left the city gates, dark clouds would come over and it would start raining.
This was completely unexpected!
The weather in June was gloomy and rainy. This rain had been falling intermittently for almost seven to eight days.
It was likely to last for a long time!
After the caravan left Anfu, the drizzle gradually turned into a storm.
The air was always moist, making people feel very uncomfortable.
Since they had been delayed in Anfu for quite a few hours, Jing Rong ordered the horses to speed up in order to speed up their journey. They rarely rested on the road and spent most of their time in the carriage.
Along the way, Wei Yi did not speak a word.
Jing Rong would occasionally say a few words, but they were all insignificant words.
Ji Yunshu sat in silence.
But Mo Ruo and Tang Si's carriage seemed to be engaged in a war.
From time to time, noises could be heard, and from time to time, laughter could be heard.
However, Tang Si would always use the phrase "I'm your savior" to choke Mo Ruo's words back down his throat.
In the end, he could only suffer in silence.
Of course, there was a small part of the journey that was quiet.
This was because they shared the same hobby – drinking wine!
The smell of wine wafted outside, mixing with the smell of the soil, making people feel as if they had returned home.
Outside the carriage, Lang Po and the guards were wearing straw rain capes and bamboo hats. They were cautiously riding their horses through the torrential rain. The wind howled around them, and even the armored horses could not withstand it. The heavy rain pelted the mountain, blurring their vision. The carriages slowed down, and every inch of the road was taken with extreme caution.
The steel-like guard beside him asked, "Guard Lang, how much longer until we reach the relay station? I'm afraid we won't be able to continue like this. "
The loud and clear sound of the bell was washed away by the heavy rain.
Lang Po looked at the hazy mountain scenery in the distance. He used his wet sleeve to wipe his rain-soaked face.
He said, "We will reach Beiliang in front of us."
Beiliang?
Then they would reach Jinjiang in another half a day's journey.
When the guard heard that, he glanced at the carriage behind them and said, "Isn't Jinjiang almost there? That is Teacher Ji's hometown. "
His words were very loud in the rain.
The accompanying guards heard it, but they all laughed without saying a word.
His Highness was a homosexual, and everyone could see that.
Lang Po glared at them. "Keep your spirits up and hurry on with the journey. Don't think about such nonsense."
The laughter stopped abruptly.
The carriages traveled for about the time it took to burn a stick of incense before they reached the border of Beiliang.
There was a large stone by the side of the road, and the words' Beiliang 'were written on it.
Lang Po said to the person in the carriage, "Your Highness, we have reached Beiliang."
Hearing that!
A voice came from the carriage, "The road is slippery in the heavy rain. Be careful."
"Yes."
Inside the carriage.
Jing Rong sat upright with a cold expression.
The carriage jolted continuously, but he was not affected at all.
Because of the heavy rain, Ji Yunshu's chest felt heavy.
When she heard the thunderous sound of the rain and Lang Po's words, her heart tightened even more.
Did they reach Jinjiang so quickly?
She lifted the curtain and looked outside. The heavy downpour almost blocked her vision.
The rain poured in along with the cold wind.
The attack came upon her delicate face.
Jing Rong was about to raise his hand when …
However, Wei Yi was one step too late.
Wei Yi held Ji Yunshu's hand and said, "Shu'er, don't catch a cold."
As he said that, he pulled her hand back.
At that moment, Jing Rong's expression did not look good.
Thud!
The carriage suddenly jolted.
Accompanied by the neighing of the horses, the entire carriage tilted slightly to one side.
Ji Yunshu's body suddenly leaned to the side and fell into Jing Rong's arms.
Jing Rong hugged her tightly with both hands, protecting her.
Lang Po's voice came from outside, "Your Highness, the carriage's wheels are stuck in the mud."
Jing Rong frowned.
After helping Ji Yunshu to a sitting position, he lifted the curtain and looked outside.
Outside, there was a thunderstorm, and the muddy road was flowing with yellow water.
It looked like the scene of a flood.
Because the carriage was tilting, the rain poured into the carriage through the window, as if it wanted to drown the entire carriage.
"Hurry up and fix it." He ordered.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Lang Po ordered all the guards to dismount and push the carriage.
After pushing for a long time, the carriage swayed left and right.
The wheels rolled back and forth in the muddy puddles, but in the end, they could not get out.
The horses' laborious neigh, mixed with the sound of the rain, shook the sky.
There was no other way!
Lang Po said, "Your Highness, the carriage's wheels can't get out. I may need you to get off the carriage first."
Thus, Jing Rong led Ji Yunshu and Wei Yi out of the carriage.
They held an umbrella to avoid the rain.
But the rain was too heavy, and their clothes were half soaked.
Jing Rong ignored the gazes of the crowd and pulled Ji Yunshu into his arms.
Tang Si, who was in the carriage behind, also jumped down, holding an umbrella and eating a biscuit in his hand.
He stood to the side as if he was watching a good show.
Ji Yunshu nestled in Jing Rong's arms and did not resist.
She only looked ahead and said, "Since we have reached Beiliang, we should be able to reach the memorial hall after a short walk."
Memorial hall?
Everyone turned to look at her.
