Shocking Mountain Moon

Chapter 93 Departure
The news that the Sixth Miss was going to take part in the autumn hunt soon spread throughout the Yongqing Marquis's Mansion.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Zhao, could not help but sigh to Mr. Qiu: "This Sixth Miss has something, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to tell her depth."

Mr. Qiu agreed with him and said, "Don't worry about it. Father values the sixth girl very much. The sixth girl is really lucky and is also a blessing for the Bo family."

His father's biggest wish was to pass down the title, and he, the eldest son, was the only one who could inherit the title. No matter who in the Earl's House became successful, the eldest son would be the one who would benefit the most.

"Of course I know." Zhao said softly, complaining about her youngest daughter Qiu Fu in her heart.

She was the most beautiful among her sisters. She was the eldest daughter in the family and the old lady's favorite granddaughter. However, she was overshadowed by a girl brought back from the countryside.

Of course, Zhao would not say anything. As the master said, it was a blessing for the Bo family that the sixth girl was successful, and the blessing of the Bo family would be continued by the eldest son of the family.

Thinking of this, Zhao curled the corners of her mouth.

After hearing this, Second Madam Lan asked the steady nanny to prepare things that the Sixth Miss would need for her trip.

You don't have to worry about what you need to bring, such as clothes, shoes and socks. However, pills to prevent and treat some emergencies, herbs to repel mosquitoes, small items such as needles and thread, these things may seem insignificant and even unexpected, but they may come in handy when you are away from home.

Master Qiu San's preparations were simple and crude: a bag of silver and a dagger.

"Use the dagger for self-defense. Don't hurt yourself."

On the day he left the house, Master Qiu San wiped away his tears and said, "Heng'er, don't run around outside. Stay away from wild animals."

Yongqing Bo couldn't stand his son's behavior and scolded him, "You are a father and you still cry in front of your children. Don't you think it's shameful?"

Master Qiu San was not convinced: "No matter how old a person is, they will cry. If our uncle's mansion also went, and Heng'er wasn't the only one, then we wouldn't have to worry."

The Earl of Yongqing was so angry that he fell backwards.

This bastard is not good at anything, but he is good at making people angry!

Before Yongqing Bo scolded Master Qiu San, Qiu Heng said, "Then wait until next year and try to bring you along."

Master Qiu San couldn't help but laugh: "Then your father will be waiting."

Yongqing Earl:?

He stared at Qiu Heng with burning eyes until his little granddaughter disappeared at the car door, without waiting for the chance to take him along.

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became. Yongqing Bo raised his foot and kicked Master Qiu San: "Rebellious son!"

Master Qiu San looked at his old father who walked away in disbelief.

Why did my father suddenly go crazy?

At Prince Kang's mansion, people are busy making final preparations for the trip.

"Princess, Miss Qiu Liu is here."

"Let Jiayi greet her." Princess Kang felt uncomfortable whenever she thought about having to bring Qiuheng with her when she arrived in Dingbei and letting that girl gain fame by borrowing the name of the Prince's Mansion.

It was not only Princess Jiayi who greeted Qiuheng, but also Lingyun.

"Heng, you haven't been to Dingbei, right? There are vast grasslands and dense trees there, which is very suitable for relaxing."

"I'm really looking forward to it. I heard there will be a hunting competition."

Ling Yun asked with a smile: "Can Ah Heng ride a horse?"

He wanted to say that he would teach you when the time comes, but he heard Qiu Heng say, "I know a little bit."

Ling Yun looked surprised: "I never saw you riding one when we were in the south."

Ordinary families cannot afford to keep horses, and at most they can rent one when in urgent need.

"I can ride a donkey, so I guess it's about the same."

Seeing Qiu Heng's confident look, Ling Yun smiled and shook his head.

Ah Heng has not changed, she is still confident and brave.

Princess Jiayi burst out laughing: "There should be a big difference between riding a horse and riding a donkey. Ah Heng, you can try it first when the time comes."

"it is good."

Soon everything was packed up, and Prince Kang's mansion, with several carriages and servants, headed for the meeting place in a mighty manner.

The carriage that Qiu Heng was riding in followed behind the carriage of Princess Jiayi. Besides her, Fangzhou was also in the carriage.

Qiu Heng lifted the car window curtain and looked forward.

She was looking at Prince Kang.

Prince Kang was riding a horse and only his back could be seen.

Strangely enough, there were not many princes and dukes of Emperor Jingping's generation, so Prince Kang's Mansion was a highly anticipated place in the capital, but there were only a few words about it in the book.

She tried hard to remember a lot of information about Daxia at that time, but she didn't know the fate of the people in Prince Kang's Mansion.

Did he die when the city was captured? Did he die while fleeing south? Or did something unexpected happen after the capital was established in Linzhou?

During the ten years she stayed there thirty years later, there was no trace of Prince Kang's Mansion.

Qiu Heng was confused and even more regretful.

If she had known at that time that Brother Bai was Prince Ling, she would have read every book in the book to look for clues.

Could it be that in addition to saving Xue Han, Brother Ling also needs to be saved?
There is no need to think about it. If something happens to Brother Ling, she will never stand idly by. As the carriages and horses of the Kang County Prince's Mansion merged into the team and moved forward, Qiu Heng saw Xue Han.

The young man riding the jet-black horse had an upright posture. In the sunlight, his dark tights made his exposed skin look like white jade, making him look even more handsome than usual.

Whether it was a coincidence or he was sensitive to other people's prying eyes, Xue Han turned around at this moment and met the eyes of the girl who was sitting in the car looking out.

Qiu Heng clearly saw Xue Han's sudden surprise, which then turned into indifference.

This discovery made Qiu Heng smile, and she waved to the boy whose expression changed so quickly.

Xue Han's hands holding the reins tightened unconsciously, and he felt very embarrassed.

Did she see his joy?

But even though it was awkward, he was actually happy to find that she was also in the traveling group.

The boy nodded calmly in response, and then he saw a young man in a moon-white robe walk up to the carriage, leaning slightly over and saying something to the girl in the carriage.

Ling Yun, the prince of Kang County.

After realizing the identity of the young man, Xue Han pursed his lips slightly, and his gaze, which should have been retracted, remained fixed there.

Ling Yun came to bring plums to Qiu Heng.

The pickled plums are sweet and sour, and they are very tasty.

"The journey is long and some roads will be bumpy. If you feel uncomfortable, put a plum in your mouth and you will feel much better."

When Ling Yun said this, Qiu Heng clearly felt countless eyes focused here, most of which came from the noble ladies in the carriage.

"Thank you, Brother Ling." Qiu Heng took it and handed over a bag of snacks, "Brother Ling, this will fill your stomach when you're hungry."

"I haven't eaten the snacks made by Fangzhou for a long time. I heard from Jiayi that you brought two boxes when you went there." Ling Yun took the snacks.

He had eaten a lot of dim sum made by Fangzhou, all of which were in the south.

Sometimes, Ling Yun felt that the secluded life in the south was just a dream. But when he woke up, the girl in the dream was still in front of him.

This always made him feel dazed.

Such as this moment.

Same people, same dessert.

"Brother Ling, what's wrong?" Qiu Heng asked.

Ling Yun's absent-mindedness was not only noticed by Qiu Heng, but also by Xue Han.

It turns out that Miss Qiu Liu would also send snacks to Prince Kang.

Why did Prince Kang look dazed after getting some snacks?

As a sworn brother, isn't this reaction a bit strange?
Xue Han frowned slightly, and suddenly felt that the Prince of Kang, who was regarded as a banished immortal in the eyes of the world, was very hateful.

"My Lord, what are you looking at?"

Hu Si's voice suddenly rang out, causing Xue Han to quickly look away.

"nothing."

When he replied like this, Hu Si's eyes lit up: "Red bean cake!"

"Ok?"

Hu Si hurriedly said, "I mean Miss Qiu Liu gave red bean cakes to others."

Hey, that’s not right. How could Miss Qiu Liu send snacks to another young man?
Oh, it’s the Prince of Kang, that’s good.

"Miss Qiu Liu is going too. That way we won't have to worry about having snacks to eat." Hu Si said happily.

Xue Han glanced at Hu Si and said calmly, "There are so many people in Prince Kang's mansion, I'm afraid there won't be any extra snacks for you to eat."

Hu Si twitched his nose.

Let him smell where the sour smell comes from.

After Ling Yun left, Qiu Heng lowered the car curtains to block out all kinds of gazes.

"Prince Ling is still as kind to you as he was in Suiyun County. When it's convenient for you, I'll make some radish cakes that Prince Ling likes to eat." Fangzhou said with a smile.

When you are away from home, it makes you feel more at ease if there is someone who truly takes care of you.

Qiu Heng thought of the black-clothed young man with a look of surprise, and smiled and reminded him: "Remember to do more."

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally started moving. Amid the sound of bells and chimes, a long procession slowly left the city. Qiu Heng lifted a corner of the curtain and looked out, and saw that the roadside was crowded with people watching the excitement.

The people surged forward but did not dare to go past the soldiers blocking their way, nor did they dare to make any noise, for they were extremely excited to see the Holy Chariot.

Qiu Heng suddenly lost interest in watching further, so she lowered the curtain and closed her eyes to rest.

After leaving the city, they sped up. During a break, Ling Yun came to Qiu Heng again and brought her a piece of news.

"Lady Qiu is also among the concubines accompanying the emperor."
