After entering the customs, Hua Qingcheng and her group continued along the official road towards the capital of Zhaoyang State. Finally, they arrived at the capital of Zhaoyang State two days later, on the evening of April 29th.
Emperor Su Mutianjun of Zhaoyang, who had already received the news, sent his uncle Qin Zhenyi to greet the third prince and the princess of Laifeng at the west gate of the city.
"Third Prince, Your Highness the Crown Princess, please!"
As soon as Hua Qingcheng and others stepped into the west gate of the city, Qin Zhenyi, who had been waiting there for a long time, personally led them to the post station in the city.
Mu Lige was dressed in a gorgeous brocade robe, a scarf on her head, and sporting a large belly. She looked at everyone and everything around her with a cynical air. This completely matched Qin Zhenyi's understanding of Wuchen and the latest information he had learned. Therefore, he didn't raise any suspicions.
The evening's afterglow cast a shadow over the streets of Zhaoyang's capital, its prosperity undiminished. Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige sat in the carriage, slowly moving forward.
Night had fallen when Hua Qingcheng and her companions arrived in the city. The streets were lined with shops, each ablaze with light. People were bustling about, shopping, chatting, and enjoying the bustle. The sounds of hawking and bargaining, mingled with laughter, created a vivid scene of life.
The carriage carrying Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige passed by, causing a slight commotion. Passersby glanced curiously, trying to catch a glimpse of the occupants. Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige, however, seemed to be on the sidelines, quietly observing the scene. The curtains on the carriage windows were half-drawn, and an occasional breeze rustled through, bringing a glimpse of the bustle and bustle of the outside world.
Night deepened, but the bustle of the capital city did not fade away. The carriage gradually moved away, leaving this prosperous scene behind.
At two quarters past ten in the evening, the carriage finally stopped in front of the inn. Qin Zhenyi, who was leading the way, dismounted first and personally opened the carriage curtains for Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige.
"Third Prince, Your Highness the Crown Princess, you have worked hard on the journey. This is the inn prepared for you to stay. Dinner and hot water are already prepared inside. You can have a good rest first. Tomorrow at noon, the Emperor will hold a banquet in the palace to welcome the Third Prince and Your Highness the Crown Princess." Qin Zhenyi said respectfully.
Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige got off the carriage and nodded slightly to Qin Zhenyi. Then, surrounded by guards and waiters, they walked into the inn.
After dinner, Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige walked into the room.
As soon as he entered the room, Mu Lige immediately dropped his ruffian disguise and returned to his original gentle and gentle appearance. Hua Qingcheng couldn't help but smile when she saw him.
"It's more comfortable this way." Mu Lige smiled slightly.
"That's right, but Brother Li, you played the role of Hua Heshang so well just now that even I almost believed it." Hua Qingcheng said jokingly.
The two smiled at each other, and then prepared to wash up and rest.
However, after Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige finished bathing and the servants of the inn took away the bathtub, they closed the door, turned off the lights, and told Erhu to guard the room before entering the space villa.
"Achen, it's so late, why are you still watching TV in the living room?"
As soon as Hua Qingcheng returned to the living room of the space villa, she saw Han Yichen lazily leaning on the sofa, watching TV and eating snacks with a "crunch crunch" sound.
"Haha, Xiao Qingcheng, you're back! I, your third brother, just want to know whether Chen Baozhu has married Mo Tianyun." Han Yichen glanced at Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige, then turned his gaze back to the large TV screen hanging on the wall.
Hua Qingcheng suddenly felt a little amused and didn't know whether it was a good thing to let Han Yichen stay in the space villa every day.
"My dear sister, you are so mean! Catching the miners is such a fun thing, but you didn't even take me, your brother, with you..." Wu Chen, who was also sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but complain.
Hua Qingcheng raised her hand and gently tapped Wuchen's forehead, "You old fool! Wait until you give birth to the baby in your belly, then you can go out and jump around, I will never stop you! But not now."
At this time, Situ Ye was practicing in the yard with a sword that could cut through iron like mud, thinking about the improved Tian family sword techniques in his mind. When he learned that Hua Qingcheng and Mu Lige had returned, he hurried back to the living room from the yard.
"Qingcheng, brother, you are finally back..." Situ Ye said excitedly.
"Aye, we are now at the inn in the city of Zhaoyang. Tomorrow at noon, Li Ge and I will go to the palace to meet with Su Mutianjun and Shangguan Yuechan..." Hua Qingcheng patiently shared her itinerary and experiences with Situ Ye.
Yu Xiaotian was sitting in front of the coffee table, moving the two long bamboo needles in his hands up and down. Yes, he was knitting a sweater!
Hua Qingcheng was surprised when she saw this, "Xiaotian, you can actually do this?"
Yu Xiaotian stopped knitting and smiled shyly, "I've been sitting here all day with nothing to do. I happened to see a video online teaching how to knit sweaters, socks, and scarves. Since you have the materials ready, I decided to give it a try. I didn't expect it to be so interesting."
Hua Qingcheng's lips twitched slightly when she heard this. Her husbands were all ancient people, but now they have been integrated into this space full of modern elements. There is an inexplicable cute contrast.
She glanced at the small socks, gloves, blankets, and other things beside Yu Xiaotian, and couldn't help but smile indulgently. She said, "Okay, as long as you like it. But don't tire yourself out. Take a break after knitting for a while."
"Okay, my wife." Yu Xiaotian opened his clear peach blossom eyes and smiled sweetly at Hua Qingcheng. Hua Qingcheng suddenly felt as if her heart was half melted.
Si Chengfeng, who was fiddling with a calculator nearby, also spoke up, "Wife, I thought I was already very talented in numerology, but now I find that this thing called a calculator can also calculate data accurately."
