The Zhao family has really gone all out for these little brats this time.
In addition to traveling with their own caravan, they also hired three escort agencies to accompany them.
These three escort agencies were naturally managed by Zhao Qingfeng and his two brothers. After all, all three families had a share in the children who came to the capital with them.
As for the elderly couple surnamed Huang, they didn't need to. Although the old lady was old, she was still in good health and had a lot of strength. If they really got into a fight, she would still be a formidable weapon.
Despite his brittle appearance, Zhao Qianci has practiced his crossbow skills diligently over the years, and he has developed a decent aim.
Zhao Qianci and Huang are definitely masters of spoiling their children.
These great-grandchildren, they love them all.
They are all exceptionally well-raised and highly educated. They are a sight to behold wherever they go.
However, in the dead of winter, everyone was dressed like balls to keep warm.
When a down jacket that reaches the ankles is put on, it's almost impossible to tell whether someone is a boy or a girl.
If it weren't for the slightly different colors of the woolen hats on their heads, even the elderly Mr. and Mrs. Huang wouldn't have been able to distinguish the children at first glance.
On the day of departure, the whole family came out to see him off; it was quite a grand send-off.
The three escort agencies hired skilled fighters, each with twenty men. Adding the caravan's men, the total number was nearly a hundred.
With the Zhao family's entourage seeing them off, the common people thought that some important figure had arrived during the New Year.
Only after inquiring did they learn that the prefect's parents had returned to the capital and had taken their young masters and misses with them.
"Ah, it's so good to have connections in the capital. Once the children come to the capital, they have more good options, whether it's for studying or marriage."
"That's not true. I heard that in the capital, a brick fell from the sky and killed five people, three of whom were officials."
"What? Really? Bricks can fall from the sky in the capital city..."
The common people's words get more and more outrageous, but they are always full of envy.
As for jealousy? Impossible. I can't be jealous.
Parents and grandparents saw their children off, their eyes red with tears, but the children who were about to go to the capital showed no sadness at parting.
"Father, Mother, Grandfather, Grandmother, you should all go back. We'll be waiting for you in the capital."
Basically every child says this, what does that mean?
Waiting in the capital city means that you should hurry up and become officials so that you can be transferred to the capital city as soon as possible.
The problem is, who wouldn't want to go to Beijing? But is it even possible? Thinking about it, it's not impossible.
Therefore, all the officials in the Zhao family, including their son-in-law Wang Huaijing, started thinking about how to improve their political achievements.
Otherwise, it will be too difficult to see my son and daughter in the future.
The road ahead is long and arduous.
Da Bao rode in the same carriage as his mentor.
Daya, being the only girl traveling with them, rode in Huang's carriage.
The remaining boys were divided into two carriages.
The Huang couple weren't worried about the children. All the Zhao family children, regardless of gender, had to practice martial arts and study from a young age.
Because of their young age, it's uncertain how skilled they are in martial arts, but their lightness skills are quite good, and each of them has cultivated internal energy, making them first-rate at escaping.
For the first three days after they left, the children stayed inside the carriage, looking out at the scenery.
By the fourth day, the children couldn't take it anymore; they were practically going crazy from being cooped up.
So one by one, they added more clothes and changed into warmer boots, ready to ride horses.
Fortunately, they brought all their horses.
Then along the way, you'll see a series of scenes like this: a group of teenagers dressed in black, holding large knives, riding horses at breakneck speed.
