In the fourteenth year of Rong Jing, at the beginning of April,
This is the day Yangui chose following Konggu's advice. It is a good day to build a house, plant crops, and travel.
Wei Yang still remembers the scenes along the way here, they are vividly in her mind, as if they were right in front of her.
In a blink of an eye, she embarked on her journey back to Beijing.
When the eldest prince returned to the capital, General Yan was afraid that something might happen on the way, so he sent 5,000 soldiers to escort him to the capital.
There is nothing wrong with Yan Gui accompanying his unmarried daughter-in-law back to his hometown to worship his ancestors and sending 5,000 soldiers to escort him.
The 10,000-strong army was actually just over 10,000 troops, who successfully set out on the journey back to Beijing under the name of escort.
The eldest prince fell ill on his way home, and he had been walking for a month but had not yet left Yanzhou. General Yan had no choice but to leave his unmarried wife behind and lead more than 2,000 elite soldiers to rush to the eldest prince and escort him back to the capital.
Wei Yang was left alone, and accompanied by the grass in the valley, she traveled along the way, enjoying the mountains and rivers, and slowly headed towards the capital.
And in the south, farthest away from them, Su Changle, dressed in fine clothes and riding a fast horse, was leading a team of soldiers back to the capital to claim credit.
"Girl, it's time for dinner."
Konggu was talking to Weiyang. The weather in April was not hot, but the sun was scorching.
The meals on the way were prepared by Xiaohua. Xiaohua had been with Youlan in the General's Mansion for a few months, and although her cooking skills were not as good as Youlan's, she was also quite skillful.
"Yeah." Wei Yang nodded, slowly moved to the blanket in front of the square table and sat down.
They were escorted by soldiers and had more than 20 carts of goods on their way home. There were Zhou Ji's blankets, and furs and herbs unique to Yanzhou. In Xiao Cao's words, at least the girls could earn some money for their dowry.
After dinner, Weiyang walked around for a while and then got into the car.
The car was moving slowly, and I didn't feel any big bumps. I looked at the mountains and rivers along the way, and rested for two days when I came across a town.
This is what Yan Gui told the leader Ding Wu, who did not dare to disobey the order: "Go slowly and wait until there is news in the capital before going to the capital. If the news in the capital changes, immediately take the girl back to the downtown area and let her become a daughter of a wealthy family."
"Girl, if you take your time like this, how many days will it take to get to the capital?"
Xiaocao covered her mouth and yawned. She was originally excited about going to the capital, but the long journey tormented her and she lost all interest. She just wanted to get out of the carriage and run and jump.
Wei Yang withdrew her gaze from the window and said calmly, "We should be able to reach the capital in about July."
"Ah." Xiao Cao opened his mouth and cried out, "Three months. I will be suffocated to death in this carriage."
Just as she was about to fall sideways, Kong Gu slapped her hard in the face: "Pah, pah, pah, children should not be restrained in their words."
Xiao Cao pouted and looked at Wei Yang, complaining, "Girl, Sister Konggu hit me again."
Wei Yang smiled faintly and said nothing. Kong Gu reached out and pinched her mouth: "Hitting you is a light punishment. I shouldn't have taken you back to Beijing if you keep talking nonsense like this."
"What's wrong with me? I only speak without restraint in front of girls. I won't say anything in front of outsiders." Xiaocao retorted angrily.
Konggu didn't want to pay attention to her, so he turned to look at Weiyang: "Miss, they say the rules in the capital are strict, how strict are they? Are they stricter than those rules of the young ladies in Yanzhou?"
Wei Yang turned her head to look at Konggu, then looked at the curious Xiaocao, and nodded, "The rules are very strict. If the young ladies from Yanzhou come to the capital, they will probably be laughed at as wild girls from the countryside."
"Really?" Xiaocao widened her eyes in surprise.
