Chapter 314 The Road Is Difficult

Going from north to south, the road is not difficult, but because we have to worry about their family members, it is difficult to get up quickly.

Luo Yuan had some objections to the stop-and-go speed, so he muttered something next to the carriage and horses parked not far away.

"If our Tiger and Ben army march, we will reach this point in ten days. But now we spend most of the day resting. It is estimated that we will not be able to reach Jinling City until the twelfth lunar month."

"Can't you see the young and old in this car? Do you think they are all as rough-skinned and fleshy as you?"

Wei Lun, the deputy captain of the Guards, scolded him, which made Luo Yuan burst out laughing, then patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Isn't my mouth itchy? I always have to say a few words when I have nothing to do? You see, you see, brother Wei, please don't get angry with me. We still have a long way to go. The general doesn't talk much. If If you don't talk to me anymore, I will choke to death."

His words did not elicit joy from Wei Lun, but instead elicited a cold snort and a roll of the eyes.

Each of the twelve lieutenants has his or her own temperament, either fiery, steady, wise, or calm, but none of them is as arrogant as Luo Yuan.

When Wei Lun knew that he was going to accompany a group of people going south, he only had two older ones. He privately thought that Zheng Deli would be the most suitable person for this errand, but Lao Zheng was ordered to do other things, so this drudgery fell through. in his body.

God knows that he never stopped listening to Luo Yuan's words along the way. His ears were numb, so it was still a small matter that he was not far away. He was afraid that Luo Yuan's ears would be confused by Luo Yuan's words before they arrived at Jinling City. Well, that’s troublesome!

He picked up the dried meat in his hand and took a bite. Looking at Luo Yuan, his eyes were also glowing with green light. Luo Yuan couldn't help but swallowed water and said.

"Hehe, my meat is not delicious. Brother Wei, you should eat more dried meat!"

After saying that, Luo Yuan immediately turned around and left. When he left, hay was still stuck to his buttocks. He reached out and patted it, which was faster than running a horse.

Wei Lun chuckled, and his ears finally became clearer.

The stopped carriages and horses were surrounded by a circle around the city, so that the guards could protect them together. Shang Ji first went to Du Jingyi's carriage to see the mother and son. Seeing that they were in good spirits, he said comfortingly.

"We've already traveled half the distance. We'll be there in a few more days."

Du Jingyi didn't have any problems along the way, he was just a little sleepy, and then he felt like vomiting after being jostled by the carriage, but otherwise he was fine.

She nodded slightly and said nothing more.

Brother Tai, who was leaning in her arms, was sleeping soundly. The child had been happy from the beginning until now. He slept when he was full and ate when he was full. The long journey seemed to have no impact on him.

This fact made both the couple feel relieved.

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

Compared to Du Jingyi and Brother Tai, she is in better spirits. After all, she has followed Marshal Gu all over the world since she was young, so the distance is not a problem.

"I'm fine. You should spend more time to see their mother and son, especially Brother Tai."

"My grandson knows, grandma should rest first."

"good."

Among the few people, the one with the best spirits is naturally the fourth aunt. She is eager to return home, and she already has martial arts skills. She used to be sluggish in the Gu house, but now she feels a lot more comfortable when she is wandering outside. .

From time to time, I ran to Li Zhu to see how the female escort team she led was doing, so it was nothing serious.

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

The two of them have basically never traveled far since they entered the palace. Occasionally, when they follow His Majesty and the Queen on their southern tour, they mostly travel by water, and they often stop at the shore for several days, so it is better than the bumpy land route. A lot of.

Therefore, during this journey, the two of them were so bloated that they could no longer vomit out water. Their faces were either pale or sallow, and they looked like they only had half a life left.

However, this trip cannot be delayed, and we can't stay here just for the sake of the two of them, so we can only take some drowsy drugs every day, and just lie down to feel more comfortable.

Shang Ji didn't say that he cared about her, but she was Yuci's girl after all, so it was hard to die of vomiting before she even arrived in Jinling City, so he arranged for two maids who were in good health to wait on her personally.

I feel so grateful in their hearts.

"Just another quarter of an hour and we'll set off."

"Yes, General."

The members of the Guards traveled all over the world during the Daxing Dynasty day and night, so the distance was not a problem.

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

It would be better if they walked from north to south like this. They could still get warm as they walked on the road, but the wind and snow in Ancheng came as promised.

On this day, sister-in-law Liu took 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 same was true for the two of them. They were both wearing turbans under their big cloaks. They were still holding the gilded heater in their hands, sitting in the airtight room. It's not cold inside even though the carriages and horses are driving.

"Uncle and aunt of the Du family are very polite. They invite us to come and get together every three days. It seems that they are afraid that we will be alone. I am also thinking about it. There is no one in the house this year. It is just the two of us having the reunion dinner. It's so deserted, it would be better if we invite uncles and aunts from the Du family to come to the General's Mansion to make it lively."

Sister-in-law Liu said immediately.

"Sister-in-law, won't you let Ping'er come back?"

"No, what grandma said is that the Duke's Mansion is keeping an eye on him now. If possible, it's better to stay in Jinling City and wait for the sixth brother and the others to come back. Then I can follow them. I can feel more at ease."

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

"The eldest sister's idea sounds good, but I don't know if the uncle and aunt of the Du family are willing."

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

"Yes."

The carriage of the two people was moving slowly in the downtown area, and happened to land on the two sisters of the Wei family, Wei Jialian and Silang's wife, who were dining outside in Changchun Tower.

"The carriage of the general's mansion is heading to the Du family again?"

Wei Jialian asked curiously, and the 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."
