A-Heng Leaves the Capital

Xuan Tian Hua smiled and said: “It’s not to the point that they won’t have any place to stay. First, I have been to that small county. The inn is not large to begin with. With just you guys going to live in it, it’s already good enough. Second, that county is just one to pass through. The families there will rent out their places for people to stay. If the travelers are unable to find space in the inn, they will live with the people living there. They just need to pay some money.”

Only then did she find out that this sort of method existed, thus she smiled and thanked Xuan Tian Hua. The group chatted for a while, and she could no longer linger. Returning to her carriage, she quickly departed. But the group had agreed that they would use an eagle to send at least one message every five days. It would start from Xuan Tian Ming’s side, and she would just need to reply. At the very least, she should clearly speak about the situation in the fief to keep them from worrying.

From beginning to end, Xiang Rong remained inside the carriage and did not come out. She did not even lift the curtain to take a look outside. She clearly knew that the seventh prince was just outside, and she could clearly hear the sound of his voice, and her heart was clearly feeling uncomfortable, but she continued to endure. Since she chose to leave the capital, she wished to begin a new life. It would be best if the things and people that she had once hoped for but could not obtain began to slowly fade from her mind. She did not want to have them brought up again, nor did she want to recall them.

Feng Yu Heng quite admired this sort of Xiang Rong. Regardless of whether it was men or women, things that could be picked up needed to also be put down unless one could guarantee victory. Otherwise, there was no need to place all of one’s efforts into a single person. Of course, she felt that allowing Xiang Rong to find this courage, the fourth prince, Xuan Tian Yi, had put in quite a great deal of work. That saying might really have been true: To forget about someone, the best method is to take interest in another person. She did not know if Xiang Rong had placed the fourth prince in her heart, but the girl had at least begun to face the matter of the seventh prince with a bit of reason. Although the so-called “facing” of this matter was actually just avoiding him, knowing to avoid him was considered an improvement.

The caravan moved very quickly. All of the carriages had undergone thorough selection and changes. Feng Yu Heng had taken out a large number of wheelchairs from inside her space. It was for no other reason than to salvage them for the tires on the wheels. She then had the craftsmen try to piece the parts together and stick them together. The wheels of the carriages were all wrapped in rubber, and a bit of air was allowed inside. It had a great effect on reducing the bumpiness of the ride. Also, each carriage’s cabin had undergone a special construction. Although they could not compare with Feng Yu Heng’s carriage in terms of prestige, they were definitely more comfortable than normal carriages. Every carriage had a small clay brazier, which allowed the people to boil water. Feng Yu Heng charged Wang Lin with buying supplies to ensure that every carriage had plenty of food to eat.

They had set out, but even if they were moving quickly, they could not compare to horses with only one rider. There were times when traveling that it was very likely that lunch and dinner would be skipped. There were even situations where they would not reach the next prefecture and would need to spend the night in their carriages. That was why each carriage had plenty of food and necessities.

Something like setting out for business was not really new to Feng Yu Heng. After all, she had the experience of going to Qian Zhou. It was just that going toward Qian Zhou, it got colder and colder. Going toward the fief, it was getting hotter and hotter.

But to Xiang Rong, leaving home was far too difficult. Not to mention the distance, but she had practically never left the capital. She had spent over a decade in a single small area. If it was not for the Feng manor undergoing changes, she would probably still be holed up inside the manor without ever setting a foot outside!
