When the carriage slowly left Shenjiazhuang, Zhongyang supported his grandfather and waved at the high embankment.

Other family members stood in a row along the river embankment. Many villagers ran out when they saw the imperial army leaving. The little black tiger and the big white goose were squawking at Grandpa's feet.

When she walked further, she saw Zhongyang and Xiaohu's children chasing each other along the river embankment and waving.

When the carriage turned a corner, her hometown was left behind. Only then did she let the tears she had held back for a long time fall.

Yue Jian didn’t know how to persuade her, and she felt that there was no need to persuade her. Who wouldn’t cry after being separated from their family members?

She envied the princess because she had so many family members who loved her and cared about her.

She had never spent the Chinese New Year in a real farmhouse, and looked on with cold eyes at those noble families. The Chinese New Year was not for family reunion, but for comparison, intrigue, and competition for interests.

This year in the Shen family allowed her to truly appreciate the joy of the New Year and experience the joy of family reunion.

Yue Jian had never thought about getting married and having children before, but now, she began to imagine that she would have a family, have three children, and celebrate the New Year happily...

When thinking of the child, she naturally had to think of the child's father. Then Yue Jian looked out of the window, her eyes moving from Lin Zhong on horseback to Jia Si, and then to the forbidden army behind.

Ugh, I don’t feel any excitement at all! Forget it, I'm still young, I'll think about this a few years later.

Perhaps because it was too quiet in the carriage, Lin Zhong rode his horse closer and quietly asked Yue Jian:

"How is the princess?"

Yue Jian made fists with both hands and rolled them over his eyes twice.

Shen Linzhong understood instantly and was still crying!

If it weren't for these forbidden troops, my sister would have been lying by the car window, crying and waving to her family.

Now she has to be a dignified Princess Ling.

Shen Linzhong went to the carriage behind, took out the small bag of glutinous rice cakes, and handed it to Yue Jian:

"Roast it for the princess. If your throats get dry after roasting over the charcoal fire for a long time, add some honey to the princess' tea."

Yue Jian glanced at Shen Linzhong with a little surprise. When he was in the Shen family, the princess' brother rarely chatted with the princess alone.

Father Shen's legs and feet are inconvenient, so he has to do everything at home when he has to go out. He didn't expect that as soon as he left home, he would focus on the princess.

Quite attentive! It’s very different from the big brother Tsukimi imagined!

These are such trivial things that Jiasi would never think of even if he tried to think of them.

As for Mr. Mo, he is also attentive, but not about the princess and the trivial matters of life, but about the general affairs.

Yue Jian glanced at Mo Xiujin again and saw that he was wearing a dark blue cotton scarf, covering half of his face.

The exposed bridge of his nose and eyes looked as pale as snow. His brows and eyes were full of sadness, and the sadness of parting was deeper than that of the princess.

He looked back from time to time on the horse. I wonder if he was looking at his mother, or because his sweetheart didn't come to see him off?

For some reason, Yue Jian felt that the sadness between his brows and eyes seemed to be due to something other than separation.

Like, absolute decision.

It's as if he will never come back again...

Yue Jian made a pot of Mao Jian, then grilled the glutinous rice cake pieces on the charcoal stove until both sides were browned, making a big bag in the middle to reveal the soft and waxy white core. Then he put it on a plate and prepared to pour honey on it.

When the princess stopped her, she said in a very nasal voice: "Don't pour honey on it."

"What about the candy?"

"No need, just eat it like this. When I was a kid, glutinous rice cakes like this were also very delicious."

Dong Su said, taking it and chewing it in small mouthfuls. This left a very deep obsession in the memory of the original owner.

It also affected her taste. Grilled glutinous rice cakes, pork head meat, croquettes... these were foods that she had no taste for in her previous life, but now she likes them after one bite.

Seeing that Yue Jian only poured her tea, he motioned for her to pour him a cup too.

But Yue Jian waved his hands with a wry smile: "I drink chamomile, this Maojian is too bitter."

Dong Su smiled: "When I was a child, I also found Maojian very bitter. I don't understand why adults like to drink such bitter things."

"Now I realize that after suffering, there is joy, just like our life."

Tsukimi:……

"Princess, even if you have passed the New Year, you are only eighteen. Why do you say it like you are eighty!"

"Well, what I said just now was when my grandpa was serving me some Maojian tea."

After eating a piece of glutinous rice cake, Dong Su felt better. Food is really powerful.

When you are sad or lonely, eating something you like seems to drive away those depressed emotions.

Especially the food from his hometown, longing and satisfaction came to his heart when he ate it. Dong Su looked at the small bag of glutinous rice cake and felt that it could support him to the distant Youzhou.

Ask Yue Jian to open the window, and she stared at the winter scenery outside the window.

The winter in Gwangju is desolate and desolate, with no greenery at all. Looking around, there are no mountains in sight. The sky and the earth are gray, as if they are a blur.

There were no pedestrians in the surrounding areas, and even the common people were frightened by the Forbidden Army team and ran away.

There is really nothing to see in this kind of scenery, but when I think about leaving here, I don’t know when I will come back.

Dong Su looked at every plant and tree in his hometown with lust, and recalled them carefully during the long days at the border.

The one who had the same idea as her was Mo Xiujin, but Shen Linzhong didn't feel anything at all, and was even excited and looking forward to the trip.

However, Shen Dongsu was certain that the next time her eldest brother came home, he would cry just like her.

Young people are like this. When they leave their hometown for the first time, they only have longing for the distance and expectations for the future. After they have experienced more outside, their hometown becomes a harbor.

The team did not pass by Guangzhou County, but the county magistrate and all the officials were waiting by the avenue. Dong Su did not get out of the car, and Jia Si and Lin Zhong exchanged greetings with the county magistrate.

They also gave a lot of gifts. They refused to accept the valuable winter vegetables, but accepted ordinary food and drinks for the imperial guards.

Butler Liu and a group of old people from the palace, the fat chef holding his fat daughter, and Ding Yun with a big belly, were also waiting at the roadside.

Seeing them and Dong Su getting out of the car, Ding Yun knelt down to salute, but Dong Su supported her and took her pulse, which was very stable.

She warned twice that she should eat less sweets, rice and noodles during the later stages of pregnancy to prevent the fetus from becoming too large.

Ding Yunsheng's daughter has suffered a lot. Theoretically, this second child will not be difficult to deliver, but if the extra labor is done, the fetus will be too big and there will be risks.

After all, her current husband is a cook, so naturally he wants to give his wife everything delicious.

The fat chef listened more seriously than Ding Yun and regretted it. If he had known better, he should have taken Ding Yun over to show the princess while the princess was at the Shen family.

He also gave the little girl a necklace as a gift, and heard Ding Yun whisper to her:

"Don't worry, Princess. Xiao Qi and Miss Shen have arrived in Yangzhou safely."

Ding Yun gave her a big coat, wrapped in a bag, saying that Chef Jia bought the ingredients and she made it herself.

Dong Su didn't open it on the spot and asked Yue Jian to keep it. She gave Ding Yun a pair of jade bracelets in return.

After setting off again and leaving Guangzhou, Yue saw the things in the carriage and then opened the clothes given by Ding Yun to take a look.

As a result, Yue Jian was stunned. She was well-informed with the princess and knew all kinds of materials, but this was the first time she had seen this kind of material.

Shen Dongsu was also dazzled by the sight, but he quickly recognized it: "This is a bird's gold fur. It has peacock feathers woven into it to make it so brilliant."

She laughed and said: "If I go to Chang'an and wear this cloak, I will make all those noble ladies jealous to death. But if I go to Youzhou, wearing this will be a waste of natural resources."

Yue Jian disagreed: "You are a princess, you can wear expensive materials! When a princess goes to meet the prince, she should dress beautifully."

Shen Dongsu heard from Mr. Jiang that this kind of material was more expensive than gold. This large cloak cost at least two hundred gold.

This was given to her personally by the fat chef. It seems that the hot pot restaurant is really making money.

When she was gossiping with Sister Damai, she heard that Ding Yun's ex-husband's Zhang family was getting poorer and poorer, and they had secretly asked Ding Yun to borrow money.

As a result, when she saw Ding Yun, who was just like the official wife, she was so ashamed that she could not speak. She was treated as a beggar by the servants of the Jia family and was kicked out after losing a few coins.

This person's fate is really strange. When Ding Yun gave birth to her daughter, she was killed by her vicious mother-in-law and weak husband, almost killing two people.

Ding Qi took her away, and the siblings lived an extremely difficult life with their little girl. In just a few years, the Ding family siblings have become people that the Zhang family looks up to.

I wonder if Mrs. Zhang regrets her bowels? Probably like Zhu, he only blames his fate for being unfair, blames God for not paying attention, and will never look for the reasons from himself.

Similarly, when passing through Yizhou, Dong Su did not enter the city, but the prefect was waiting at the inn early.

The leader of the Forbidden Army and Jia Si were very surprised. When the princess returned to Guangzhou, she was so energetic that she cooked hot pot for them.

Why are you so depressed when you go to Youzhou?

Jia Si also asked Yue Jian if the princess was feeling unwell?

Yue Jian was speechless. Is there a stone in Commander A's head?

"When I returned to Gwangju, the princess went home, so she was naturally happy every day. Now it's time to leave home. Which person who has left home have you seen being happy?"

A Si pointed at Shen Linzhong. Well, Shen Linzhong was talking to the prefect with a smile.

At the same time, Jia Si also gave another reason: "The princess did leave home, but she went to the border to find the prince!"

"This wife should be even more happy to see her husband!"

"You'd better go and ask, is the princess feeling unwell? If she's not feeling well, don't hold on, let's hurry up."

Yue Jian didn't want to talk to him anymore. The princess was a miracle doctor. Wouldn't she know that she was sick?

Shen Dongsu didn't have dinner with everyone that night. He said he would take a nap first and then eat after waking up.

Now Tsukimi was also wondering if she was sick.

While she was sleeping, Tsukimi quietly came to the bedside and touched her forehead. I was also worried that it would be too cold and I wouldn't be able to feel it just by touching my forehead.

After warming his hands, he touched Dong Su's ears again.

In fact, Shen Dongsu didn't fall asleep at all, he was just very tired and wanted to stay quietly by himself.

Being tickled by Yue Mi, he sighed softly and grabbed her hand: "I'm fine."

Tsukimi squatted at the head of her bed and said softly:

"Princess, I know you are reluctant to leave your family. Guangzhou is the prince's fiefdom. When Youzhou is pacified, you and the prince can return to Guangzhou to live."

Shen Dongsu nodded, knowing that they would be worried if he didn't eat, so he stood up and said:

"Put the food on the table!"

Yue Jian agreed happily, and then Shen Linzhong and Mo Xiujin came in with food.

What Shen Linzhong served was a bowl of hand-made noodles, a few boiled croquettes, garnished with fresh garlic sprouts, and a small plate of Jiang's pickled dried radish.

There is still flour left between the eldest brother's fingers. It seems that he rolled this dough with his own hands.

What Mo Xiujin was holding was a bowl of sweet-scented osmanthus wine glutinous rice cake. As soon as he smelled the fragrance, he knew it was brought from home.

She sighed in her heart, she was the backbone of this team, and the pillar of support for Big Brother and Little Pan.

You have to cheer up!

At home, she can ignore everything and simply enjoy her vacation. But when traveling far away, you have to shoulder the responsibilities of a princess!

During the next trip, although Dong Su was still a little depressed, she was no longer bored in the carriage.

When the weather was warm at noon, she would ride horses with Yue Jian to relax her muscles, and she would review the route with Jia Si and others.

Even when I was sitting in the carriage, I would take some books and account books to read. I wanted to write a plan, but the road was too bumpy and I couldn't write it with charcoal.

She was so bored that she wanted to play Sudoku to pass the time. When she saw Yue Jian dozing next to her, she became interested and taught Yue Jian how to write a secret letter.

In fact, it is the simplest coding method. Find a book as the master copy, and determine which word to write based on the page number and line.

Tsukimi treated it as a game at first, but later found out that even if someone intercepted the secret message, it would be impossible to decipher it without knowing which original book it was.

Now that he was interested in learning, Shen Dongsu called Jia Si, Xiao Pan and his eldest brother into the carriage to learn how to play.

He created his own set of passphrases and decoding keys, and Brother Xiaopan learned them the fastest because he was so familiar with the original book that he knew it by heart.

But the one who learned it most seriously was Jia Si. He felt that this method could be used to spread intelligence in the army, and asked Dong Su if he could teach it to the army officers.

Shen Dongsu smiled and said: "Of course you can! It's just that you'd better choose another book as the master copy, and choose a more complicated one."

Jia Si thought of hearing the prince lament that the princess was full of good ideas, but she would not think about them unless she was stimulated.

Sure enough! Look now, the princess was just bored on the road and thought of the game of deciphering secret messages.

That's a game! This is simply customized for sending secret messages to the military! Many military strategists tried their best but never thought of such a comprehensive way of transmitting messages.

The princess actually used a game to think of it!

Jia Si looked at Shen Dongsu with burning eyes and almost shouted, "Princess!" Don’t worry about anything along the way, just think about the game!

Of course, Shen Dongsu couldn't just think about it. To be precise, after she taught these people how to use the code book, she lost interest.

Although it’s hard to write in the car, I can think! She decided to think about the project, the business and the hospital while they were in the carriage.

When you have a rest at night, write down the ideas in fragments.

You must know that it will take three months to go from Guangzhou to Youzhou smoothly. If there is a snowstorm and the road is blocked, it will take even longer.

She had to take advantage of this long journey to read more, think more, and think more about what she had to do after arriving in Youzhou.

The most important thing is to review more of the experience during that time in Chang'an. Princelings, queens in the cold palace, offended nobles...

These enemies are still watching! Even though she is far away from Chang'an now, the trouble is only temporarily lurking, but in fact it is not less at all.
