The journey from north to south was not difficult, but because they had to consider their families, they could not travel fast.

Luo Yuan had some complaints about the stop-and-go pace, and he muttered something beside the carriage parked not far away.

"If our Tiger Guards were to march, we would probably reach this short distance in ten days or so. But now we have to rest for most of the day, so we estimate that we will not reach Jinling City until the twelfth lunar month."

"Can't you see all these people in this car? Do you think they are all as tough as you?"

Wei Lun, the deputy captain of the Royal Guard, retorted to him, which immediately made Luo Yuan burst into laughter. Then he patted him on the shoulder and said.

"I just want to talk a lot. I can see it, brother Wei, please don't be angry with me. We still have a long way to go. The general is a man of few words. If you also say less to me, I will be suffocated to death."

His words did not please Wei Lun, but were met with a cold snort and a roll of the eyes.

Each of the twelve deputy generals has his own temperament, some are hot-tempered, some are calm, some are wise, and some are composed, but none of them is as talkative as Luo Yuan.

When Wei Lun knew that he had to accompany them on the journey south, he was overwhelmed. He personally thought that Zheng Deli would be the most suitable person for this mission, but Zheng Deli was ordered to do other things, so this difficult task fell on him.

God knows he has been listening to Luo Yuan's words all the way, and his ears are a little numb, so whether it is far or not is no big deal. He is afraid that before he even reaches Jinling City, his ears will be confused by Luo Yuan's talking, which would be troublesome!

He picked up the dried meat in his hand and took a bite. The look in his eyes as he looked at Luo Yuan was also glowing with a sinister green light. Luo Yuan couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of water, and then he said.

"Hehe, my meat is not tasty, Brother Wei, you should just eat more jerky!"

After saying that, Luo Yuan immediately turned around and left. His butt was still covered with hay, and he patted it with his hands. He walked faster than a horse.

Wei Lun chuckled, and his ears finally felt a lot quieter.

The carriages and horses that had stopped formed a circle around the city, which made it easier for the royal guards to protect together. Shang Ji first went to Du Jingyi's carriage to check on the mother and son, and seeing that they were in high spirits, he spoke soothingly.

"We are already halfway through the journey. Just bear with it for a few more days and we will be there."

Du Jingyi had no problems along the way, except that he was a little sleepy and felt like vomiting due to the shaking of the carriage, but everything else was fine.

She nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Tai Ge'er, who was leaning on her arms, was sleeping soundly. The child had been happy since they set out. He would sleep when he was full and eat when he was full. The long journey seemed to have no effect on him.

This made the couple feel much more at ease.

Then Shang Ji went to see the carriage where Old Madam Gu was.

Compared with Du Jingyi and Tai Ge'er, she was in better spirits. After all, she had been traveling around the country with Marshal Gu since she was young, so this distance was no problem for her.

"I'm fine. You can just visit them more often, especially Brother Tai."

"Grandson understands, grandma, please take a rest first."

"good."

Among the few people, the one with the best spirit is naturally the fourth aunt. She is eager to go home, and she is also skilled in martial arts. She has been staying in Gu's house for a long time and has become listless. Now she feels much more comfortable going out every day.

From time to time, he would go to Lizhu to see how the female guard team she led was doing, so there was nothing serious.

Among the group, the most miserable ones were Gu Xiaochun and Gu Xiaoyun.

The two of them had basically not traveled far since entering the palace. When they occasionally followed His Majesty and the Empress on a southern tour, they mostly traveled by water, and often stopped at the shore for several days. Therefore, it was much better than the bumpy land route.

Therefore, during the journey, the two of them could not even vomit yellow bile, and their faces were either pale or sallow, and it was obvious that they were only half dead.

But the trip cannot be delayed, and I can't stay here forever just for the two of them, so I can only take some drowsiness drugs every day, or just lie down to be more comfortable.

Shang Ji was not trying to be gentle with women, but after all, she was a sister bestowed by the emperor, and it would not be good if she vomited to death before she even reached Jinling City, so he assigned two maids in good health to serve her closely.

They are still very grateful in their hearts.

"Rest for another quarter of an hour, and then we'll set off."

"Yes, General."

The members of the Royal Guard have traveled day and night to all corners of the Daxing Dynasty, so this distance is no problem for them.

As winter came, the sound of the wind never stopped.

If they were traveling from north to south, it would be better as the weather would get warmer as they walked. However, the snow and wind in Sui'an City arrived as expected.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

On this day, the eldest sister-in-law Liu brought her eighth sister Xueniang to visit the Du family.

The road was already covered with snow, and the pedestrians were all wearing thick coats. The two of them did the same, both wearing jackets under their cloaks, holding the gilded heater in their hands, and sitting in the airtight carriage, they were not cold.

"Uncle and aunt Du are so polite. They invite us to their house every few days. It seems that they are afraid that we will be lonely. I was thinking that there are not many people at home during the New Year's Day this year. It would be quite lonely for just the two of us to have a reunion dinner. It would be better to invite uncle and aunt Du to come to the general's mansion to liven it up."

Sister-in-law Liu started talking.

"Sister-in-law, don't you want Ping'er to come back?"

"No, my grandmother is right. The Duke's Mansion is keeping an eye on him. If possible, it's better for him to stay in Jinling City and wait for Sixth Brother and the others to come back. Then he can follow them. I will feel more at ease."

Hearing this, the eighth sister Xue Niang understood it very well, so she smiled and responded to the eldest sister-in-law's suggestion.

"That idea from the eldest sister-in-law sounds good, but I don't know if Uncle and Aunt Du are willing to do it."

"Let's talk to them later. If they agree, we can go back and prepare."

"Um."

The two men's carriage was moving slowly forward in the downtown area and happened to stop at the two sisters of the Wei family, Wei Jialian and Silang's wife, who were having dinner outside Changchun Tower.

"The carriages from the General's Mansion are heading to the Du family again?"

Wei Jialian asked curiously. Silang's wife took a look and said with jealousy.

"Only they can be so close to officials and businessmen. In recent days, many invitations have been sent to the general's mansion, but these two have never shown their faces and just kept hiding."
