“Haha…” The thin guy thought these two kids were really funny.
He looked at the other children who were still crying and scolded them impatiently, "See, I'm younger than you and I can see clearly that I'm not going to kill you..."
Just as the thin man was rambling on, the head of the West Hall came over impatiently, "Fuzi, what are you still talking about? The whole team has set off."
The thin man who was called Fukuko quickly shut his mouth and stopped teasing the children. He took out a blindfold and a piece of cloth, covered each child's eyes, and stuffed a ball of cloth into their mouths.
Finally, all the children's hands and feet were tied and thrown into the carriage.
There were eleven children in total, and they could fit into two carriages.
Two people were left to drive each carriage, and the rest of the Xitang people all rode on horses, driving the carriages and rushing towards the direction of the army.
Behind them, Lu Qing and his subordinates followed slowly and leisurely.
Yongning Mansion was quiet, so quiet that it made people feel uneasy.
…
The army was moving on the road. Although she had been mentally prepared and Qian Chunhua had laid latex mats on the carriage in advance, she still felt a little carsick after half a day's travel.
As the team moved forward, getting further and further away from the city, the air was filled with heat and dry dust.
Looking out through the car window, the sky was blue and no cloud was willing to stay, as if even the sky was afraid of the scorching temperature and chose to stay away from this dry land.
On the ground, the cracked soil opened its thirsty mouth, silently calling for the arrival of rain. The withered and yellow weeds shivered under the scorching sun.
Occasionally, a few tired insects shuttled through the grass, their wings making a slight rustling sound in the dry air.
Next to the official temple, a dry river lies in the riverbed, with the stones on the riverbed exposed, without the moisture and vitality of the past.
In this dry season, even the wind is hot. It blows across the earth without bringing a trace of coolness.
…
After marching for three hours under the scorching sun, the army stopped advancing at the order of King Yongning.
We were busy moving forward and everyone had dry food at noon.
Qian Chunhua took out two bags of lasagna, a box of braised pork, and a small bowl of cherry tomatoes from the drawer on the side of the carriage. He took Zheng Lin and Zheng Hua with him and ate their fill in the carriage.
The water they drank was from the water bags. Each person had two water bags. Qian Chunhua prepared three large water tanks in the space, which were filled with boiled and cooled water.
One jar is filled with boiled lemon water, one jar is filled with light salt water, and the other is filled with milk tea.
After eating and drinking, Qian Chunhua realized that he didn't seem to see Dong Mingshan along the way. He clearly said that he followed the army.
Seeing Qian Chunhua looking around, Zheng Hua knew that she was looking for the master of the Dong family, so he said, "I'll go look around."
This child is bold and careful. At the moment, he is wearing a black suit and has a high ponytail like Qian Chunhua. He doesn't look like a girl at all, but a handsome young man.
Qian Chunhua nodded, "Be careful and come back before you set off."
Zheng Hua nodded, stood up and left.
As soon as Zheng Hua left, the medicine boy beside Imperial Physician Zhang came over and handed Zheng Lin a bag of food and a water bag.
After Zheng Lin took it, he said he would come back to get the water bag in the evening and give them some more water, then left.
Qian Chunhua heard the sound and got out of the carriage.
"Xiaochen, how is Imperial Physician Zhang?" Qian Chunhua stopped the medicine boy, who was the grandson of Imperial Physician Zhang, and his name was Zhang Yichen.
Zhang Yichen stopped and responded with a smile, "My grandpa is just old and has a backache from sitting for a long time. I'll give him a massage later and it will be fine."
Qian Chunhua nodded. Not to mention Imperial Physician Zhang, even she herself felt sore in the waist and back after sitting for the whole morning.
