Lei Pingting didn't go with Fang Zhiye this time. After all, she was heavily pregnant, and traveling would take up too much time. It was better for Fang Zhiye to go alone and return quickly.

Lei Pingting was a little embarrassed, but given the current situation, she couldn't bear to leave her family behind. Her mother-in-law noticed this and offered to have her husband bring her family to stay with them temporarily. How could she refuse such a kind offer?

She was very grateful for her in-laws' consideration, and at this moment she was even less likely to hold them back. She immediately said, "My husband will be back soon, so don't worry about us. We are safe at home. Let my older sister and brother-in-law go with you! Besides, the baby will be born in March. After the baby is born, I will be able to fight back and protect this family."

Fang Ruotang glanced at the beautiful and charming Fang Shengtang, shook her head stubbornly, and said with heartache, "No, no, my eldest sister is destined to enjoy a life of happiness. How can she go out and struggle with me? She should enjoy all the good things in this world."

Fang Shengtang was overjoyed by Fang Ruotang's words.

The other members of the Fang family also laughed.

It's not surprising, as the sisters in the family have always had a good relationship.

Fang Wantang seized the opportunity to interject, "If Big Sister can't go, let me go! Little Six, I need to face the monsters, I need to practice so I can improve. I don't want to be weak forever and hide in the back when something happens."

Fang Ruotang had a personal reason for including the list of people from Tianyi Sect on the trip. Her fourth sister wasn't very talented. Although she wasn't bad in the sect, she was able to eat good things that ordinary sect disciples couldn't afford because of her. However, her strength wasn't very strong.

Therefore, Fang Ruotang dared not let Fang Wantang go out alone.

Fang Ruotang agreed with Fang Wantang's words. She was just worried that if something happened to her fourth sister, she wouldn't be able to protect her in time, but she didn't want to hinder her fourth sister's growth, so she immediately agreed.

"Okay, Fourth Sister, I'll go out with you."

Having achieved her goal, Fang Wantang pursed her lips and beamed with joy.

Fang Shengtang glared at Fang Wantang, then chuckled and scolded, "You little rascal, Fang Xiaosi, you're climbing over me to get ahead! I don't care, I'm going to follow along too, I want to practice and improve my own abilities."

Before Fang Ruotang could speak, Fang Shengtang raised her hand to block him, and said with a serious face, "In the future, if your brother-in-law remembers our friendship in this life and wants to take me up with him, I can't be a pampered young lady who can't do anything! You have to be strong yourself to succeed. No matter how good Yu Sheng is to me, there will always be times when he can't protect me. I must at least have some ability to protect myself, so that when others bully me, I can hold out until Yu Sheng comes to save me."

As soon as Fang Shengtang said this, the rest of the Fang family looked at Fang Ruotang, clearly agreeing with him.

As a woman herself, Cui understood the hardships of a woman marrying into a higher social class, and advised, "Sixth Sister, if it's convenient, take your eldest sister with you! Let her gain more experience; it will be good for her."

Fang Ruotang blinked; she couldn't think of these things.

But seeing that the whole family approved, she knew it was a good thing for her older sister, so she naturally wouldn't object.

"Okay, eldest sister will come with us. But brother-in-law, will you end up like third brother-in-law, restrained and unable to fully protect your wife?"

Yu Sheng remained silent while Fang Shengtang spoke because the couple had a tacit understanding; Fang Shengtang had told him this before, and he had always worked very hard.

"No! I can protect Miss, but I also support all of Miss's decisions."

Fang Shengtang looked at Yu Sheng with sparkling eyes. The two stared at each other, their gazes locked, completely oblivious to the occasion. When emotions run deep, they can't hide them at all.

That night, three more people packed their luggage, but Fang Wantang was prepared in advance and had already packed everything into her storage bag.

We set off on the second day.

Fang Ruotang looked at the enormous, luxurious carriage and stared at Jin Wuyou with a puzzled expression.

What's going on here?

Jin Wuyou smiled, "This was specially prepared for the seven of you. The four-horse carriage is spacious and convenient, so they won't argue about who gets to ride with you. Everyone, get on."

Fang Ruotang looked like she had a toothache, "You really are my sister."

"Absolutely. I will protect my sisters' happiness." Jin Wuyou grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth, clearly up to no good.

Fang Ruotang glared at her angrily, and was also speechless as she looked at Ye Wuxia who had already leisurely boarded the carriage. She peeked her little head into the carriage and saw that the space was indeed large, like a small room.

Don't you want to say anything?

“That’s good. Otherwise, if we take turns riding together for one day each, I would only be able to ride in the same car with you every six days.”

Ye Wuxia thought Jin Wuyou was very sensible.

It's better for seven people to be together, even if they're jealous and vying for attention, than to never see each other at all.

For Jin Wuyou, having three extra people and an extra carriage was a minor matter; as for Song Wantang, she shared a carriage with her.

Before they had even finished packing, the six members of the Crown Prince's party arrived one after another. Each of them, thanks to the storage bags given to them by Xiao Jingzi, walked over with ease, as if they were just going out for a casual meal.

The five men saw the four-horse carriage but didn't react; they simply jumped onto it.

Inside the carriage, the seven people remained silent for a moment.

Fang Ruotang blinked, feeling a little embarrassed for some reason. She secretly knocked on the carriage pillar and called to Kang Er, who was driving, to set off.

Kang Er's marriage to his cousin from the Shu family did not go through.

Therefore, Kang Er specifically sought out Li Shiyun and asked her to help convey his message to Fang Ruotang.

He doesn't want to get involved in romantic relationships right now. Although he married his cousin from the Shu family, who is Fang Ruotang's cousin-in-law, he doesn't want to take such a shortcut. Besides, he feels in his heart that the two of them have different talents and lifespans. If they get together and develop deep feelings, the one left behind will suffer too much.

He didn't want to be that suffering person.

He struggled for a long time before making this decision and was prepared to be disliked by the sect leader, but he didn't expect the sect leader to not target him. On this trip, his senior sister asked him to come along, and the sect leader did not object and treated him as always.

Fang Ruotang was accompanied by quite a few people on this trip, including Cao Yuedi, Wenren Ya, Cheng Xiaocheng and other girls who were close to her, as well as men like Gu Jiaren and Wei Xuan who usually fawned over her. Wei Xuan even brought his family along with the Fourth Princess.

All the ministers knew that accompanying Fang Ruotang on this trip was a good opportunity for them to gain experience, and many wanted to put their promising descendants into the caravan. However, the only people who caught Fang Ruotang's eye were those who occasionally showed their faces in front of her.

The most successful among them was Wei Xuan. Originally a playboy, he now followed the right person and not only has a bright future, but his wife can also benefit from it.
