Chapter 421: Early Lunch
Princess Lejia started eating potato chips with a smile. She felt safe when she was with Zheng Zheng and A Ying.
No matter what they do, they will prepare in advance and arrange everything properly.
Shen Huazheng picked up a piece of dried duck gizzard and took a bite.
The duck gizzards are just the right amount of salty and chewy.
As you eat, you can also taste the toughness after being dried, with a little bit of crispness.
Shen Huazheng ate the duck gizzards happily and was in a good mood.
No one made trouble along the way, so we walked quite fast.
At this rate, we should be able to reach the northwest earlier than originally planned.
Zhou Ying took a sip of tea, looked at Princess Le Jia and Shen Huazheng who had been talking all the way, and the corners of her lips lifted involuntarily.
She was about to lift the curtain to see where she was when the carriage suddenly stopped.
Shishu lifted the curtain of the carriage, and Shihua and Qingzhi Qingtang followed behind.
"Princess, County Lady, Miss Zhou, General Xie said we should stop here to rest and have lunch."
Princess Lejia paused while gnawing on the chicken feet. Why did lunch go by so quickly today?
As Princess Lejia's personal maid, Shishu certainly understood what her master was thinking.
"General Xie said that we have all been very hard-working during the past few days of traveling. Let's have lunch earlier so that we can get to the next post station earlier and have a good rest."
Although they were traveling with officials and their wives, General Xie and the soldiers of the Northwest Army were quite satisfied with the speed of their journey over the past few days.
These past few days, they had been traveling during the day and resting at the post station at night.
It’s called rest, but in fact it’s just finding a place to simply wash up and take a nap.
The next morning, we had to get up early and continue our journey.
General Xie considers himself a rough man, and he will do anything when he is in a hurry.
But Shen Huazheng and his group also hurried on this journey without any complaints.
Instead, they benefited from following Chen Huazheng and got a lot of delicious food on the way.
The strings cannot be too tight, and the same goes for people, otherwise problems are likely to arise.
It's okay if they are used to it, but it would be bad if Chen Huazheng and the officials in the capital were exhausted.
Anyway, the progress of the journey is much faster than expected. General Xie thought about it and decided to have lunch early today. Then everyone will speed up to the next post station.
If you arrive at the post station early, you will have more time.
By then, everyone can have a good rest and recharge their batteries.
Only on the second day did I have enough energy to continue on my journey.
Zhou Ying was the first to react: "Okay, let's get off the car."
Chen Huazheng swallowed the duck gizzard in his mouth: "Let's go!"
It’s better to eat early so that you can get to the post station earlier.
She hadn't slept well these days because she was busy traveling.
Be sure to go to bed early tonight and get a good night's sleep.
Princess Lejia also picked up a wet towel, wiped her hands, and followed them out of the carriage.
As soon as they got off the car, the captain of the guards sent by Emperor Jingning came forward.
"Sir Shen, Princess, Miss Zhou. I have asked someone to clean up this place. You can sit here."
The guard Gao who followed behind was also smiling. The duck gizzards that Lord Shen gave them were delicious, with firm meat and very chewy.
Every time they stopped to eat on the road, Princess Xuanxing and Princess Lejia's guards would clean the place in advance and let them sit here to rest.
Not long after, this job was snatched away by the guards sent by Emperor Jingning.
Although they were the imperial guards, they did not put on airs in front of Xuan Xing.
There was no conflict between them due to being too servile; instead, they got along very well.
The guards all knew that Xuan Xing was Lord Shen's personal bodyguard, so there would be no harm in establishing a good relationship with him.
When they learned that they were sent to protect Lord Shen, the brothers were so happy that they couldn't sleep well that night.
As we all know, Lord Shen is a walking food library.
As long as you follow her, there will be endless delicious food.
As expected, Lord Shen broadened their horizons along the way.
