The advisor was stunned for a moment before cupping his hands in acknowledgment.
Fu Xiu Yi shifted his gaze. Since the game had already begun, the day of conquering the world was just around the corner. It was imperative to recruit more talents in the shortest time possible.
…
Shen Xin left the capital early the next morning.
When he left the capital, it was early in the morning and the sky was not even bright. Shen Xin had sneaked away. One reason was that he did not want to make things difficult for those colleagues that he had good relations with. If they were to send him off, it would be equivalent to going against Emperor Wen Hui. The heart of an emperor was temperamental. It would not be good if he vented his anger because of this. Secondly, the Xiao Chun City was thousands of mountains and rivers away from the Ding capital, thus the earlier one travelled, the earlier one would arrive.
However, even if they galloped at full speed, it would still take them more than half a year to arrive.
Even though Shen Xin was taken in by the Shen family's army and only the frontline people were left, he still had a group of confidants in private. In addition to Shen Qiu's subordinates, Mo Qing and Ah Chi, he was not afraid of encountering any danger. Their journey had been pretty good. Luo Xue Yan and Shen Xin were initially worried that Shen Miao's body would not be able to withstand such a long journey and feared that she would feel uncomfortable in the middle of the journey. Who knew that Shen Miao did not even utter a single word of tiredness. Even Shen Xin kept on praising, "Jiao Jiao is indeed my daughter. Which female family in the Ding capital would have such tenacity?"
Luo Xue Yan rolled her eyes at him but felt even more guilty towards Shen Miao. She was a pampered girl, but she had to follow them and suffer hardships.
Jing Zhe was holding on to the curtain of the carriage. Because it was her first time travelling far, she was somewhat surprised. One moment she pointed at the birds in the sky, the next moment she pointed at the hares in the forest and screamed. Seeing Shen Miao's calm look, she asked curiously, "Why does Young Lady not find it fresh? These things can't be found in the city. "
With that said, Gu Yu also knocked on Shen Miao's face and probed, "Young Lady look at it and there is not a bit of nostalgia."
Luo Xue Yan, who was sitting in the carriage, was stunned.
To leave the hometown that one had lived in for more than ten years and go to a place that one had never heard of. The Xiao Chun City was definitely not as prosperous as the Ding capital, and one was unfamiliar with the people and the place. Any Young Lady would at this time show their attachment and reluctance to leave their hometown. However, Shen Miao was very calm from the beginning to the end. Sometimes, she even looked a little lively.
Brisk? What was there to be happy about leaving one's home?
Feeling Luo Xue Yan's gaze, Shen Miao was slightly surprised for a moment before smiling. Looking at the scenery outside the carriage, she said, "Father, Mother and Eldest Brother are by my side, what is there to miss. Even if one were to stay in the Ding capital, one would not have any relatives and it would not be considered as a home? "
Hearing this, Luo Xue Yan's heart ached. Thinking that she had seen the ugly faces of the Shen family when she came back this time. For so many years, she had thrown Shen Miao into that family and thought that she was living well, but now it seemed like a big joke. Shen Miao most likely did not treat those people as family, otherwise she would not have said such words.
Thinking of this, Luo Xue Yan pulled Shen Miao into her embrace and said guiltily, "Correct. In the future Jiao Jiao will be together with Father, Mother and Eldest Brother. No one would dare to bully you."
Shen Miao nestled in Luo Xue Yan's embrace and lowered her eyes to hide the trace of coldness in them.
How could this be the first time he had to leave his hometown and travel alone? In her previous life, when she went to the Qin State as a hostage, the mountains were high and the rivers were long. When she brought along her trusted maids, how many of them died in foreign lands? The scenery at that time was just like now. It was obviously very blurry but one could clearly remember the feeling of that moment. From the Ding capital to the Qin country and from the Qin country back to the Ding capital, both roads were very bleak. It was a pity that she thought that she was doing it for the sake of righteousness and for the common people of the world, but did not know how ridiculous and lame she was in the eyes of everyone.
