Honestly, if you're wrong, you're wrong. Why do you have to say it out loud? Are you trying to show off how great you are?
snort!
Kangxi shook his head and followed behind Mingxiu.
The two quickly arrived at the place where they had just started climbing the mountain, where someone was already waiting.
"My lord, I've already had the people here taken care of. We can just have the officials below take over," the guard said.
"Alright, I understand." Kangxi nodded and looked at the person who was still sulking, saying, "Let's go. You came up here to see what was going on, right? If you keep sulking, we'll have to go down."
Mingxiu pouted and looked at Kangxi with a resentful expression, but she didn't say anything in the end. She really wanted to see.
Mingxiu didn't go to see the poor women. Although she went up the mountain mainly for their sake, once she got there, she suddenly felt that it was better to give up. What was the use of carrying them? That was all she could do. The rest was up to them to bear on their own.
Mingxiu waited until the poor women went down with the soldiers who had just come up before following Kangxi down.
The rest of the journey was uneventful but enjoyable. It took them about half a year to slowly and leisurely reach Yunnan.
By the end, Mingxiu was no longer willing to sit in the carriage. Usually, she would go directly into her space after getting into the carriage, with Kangxi covering her from the outside. Riding in a carriage was just too tiring. Even if the scenery was beautiful, Mingxiu had long been tired of looking at it for so long.
Moreover, her butt hurt from sitting, so Mingxiu went straight into the space to play.
At times like this, Mingxiu misses modern airplanes even more. Even if it takes several hours to get to Yunnan, the current technology simply can't build airplanes, so this is all she can do. Fortunately, Mingxiu still has space to move around.
She could sit or lie down whenever she wanted in her space, and wander around when she was bored. Her space was much larger now, where she could pick fruit and catch fish. Originally, there weren't many fish in there, but after returning, Kangxi had a lot of small fish thrown into her space, and now they were all edible.
After playing enough, they took a bath and then went out to talk to Kangxi with the freshly picked fruit. Although Kangxi also wanted to go in, neither of them was sure if they would still be on the carriage after they both went in and came out. They hadn't found an opportunity to test it, so one of them could only go in and the other could stay outside.
Finally, just when Mingxiu was getting impatient, they arrived in Yunnan.
Looking out from inside the carriage, Mingxiu saw herds of cattle and sheep grazing everywhere, with herders tending their flocks.
"I told you the scenery here is nice, but I asked Chenghuan to come out with me, and she didn't want to. Humph!" Mingxiu complained about Chenghuan while looking at the scenery outside.
"Is she unwilling? She's reluctant to leave her child. If the child weren't too young to come along, do you think she would have come?" Kangxi thought of Chenghuan's expression when they were about to leave. If it weren't for the child, she really would have come with them.
"But Consort Hui and Consort Rong are also unwilling to come out. Humph! As soon as they hear that the journey will take half a year, they back down so quickly."
Kangxi stopped speaking. The main reason these people didn't come out was because he was also there, and they felt uncomfortable coming out.
On the street, Mingxiu slowly descended from the platform. Since no one recognized her outside, Mingxiu stretched comfortably and looked at Kangxi, who was also descending, and asked, "Where shall we go first?"
"Let's go eat first, then we can go back to rest. I've already had someone find a place for us to rest," Kangxi said, glancing at the surroundings without making a sound.
Mingxiu nodded; she would just follow along, as she didn't want to worry about these things.
Yunnan is most famous for its mushrooms. Mingxiu had often seen them in videos, but she had never had the chance to try them herself, mainly because she was afraid.
after all!
"Red umbrella, white pole"
After eating, let's lie down together.
Lying on a plank, sleeping in a coffin
Then we'll bury the mountain together.
Bury the mountain ~ Cry out
Burying the mountain, crying out
Friends and relatives came to have dinner
There's an umbrella while eating.
Everyone lay down on the board
No one cares about the board.
The whole village worked together to dry
Air dry ~ long umbrella
Air-dried long umbrella
"Next year, the mountains will be covered with white stalks," Mingxiu hummed a song to herself.
Kangxi, who was listening nearby, had become immune to it by now, since he had been hearing this song from time to time since he was preparing to come to Yunnan.
Although Mingxiu's voice was soft, it couldn't hide the fact that there were people nearby. A little girl next to Mingxiu tilted her head and looked at her strangely, listening to the odd song. For some reason, she memorized it after just one listen.
She clearly had a bad memory before. When her father asked her to recite a text, she had to recite it many, many times before she could remember it. The little girl touched her head in confusion, and before she could react, her parents pulled her away.
Although the little girl didn't understand, it didn't stop her from singing. She swayed along beside her parents and sang the lyrics that Mingxiu had just sung.
"Red umbrella, white pole, after eating we lie down together on the plank, on the plank we sleep in the coffin..."
Mingxiu heard the clear voice from afar, turned her head, and saw the little girl singing a song, bouncing and skipping.
Mingxiu turned her head inexplicably and saw Kangxi looking at her with a deep and mysterious expression.
Mingxiu swallowed hard: ...How can you blame her? This song is just too catchy. She never thought she could sing it so completely.
