There were no clouds for ten thousand miles, and the blue sky was like a wash. A scorching sun hung high in the clouds, emitting a gentle light that nourished everything.
Not far away from the capital city, a group of five people rode their horses and galloped at high speed, stirring up a long trail of dust.
Five people and five horses advanced together at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, they had already traveled a thousand meters. It was obvious that these five horses were all extraordinary breeds that could only be owned by dignitaries.
The handsome young man who was leading the group turned to look at the old man beside him and asked,""Old Man Shang, which route should we take this time?”
This group of people was naturally Zhu Moxie and the others who had left the palace.
In order to travel lightly and not attract too much attention, Zhu Moxie only brought Shang Ming, the old eunuch, and three trusted generals that the Brocade Guard had trained in the past ten years. Dragon One, Dragon Two, and Dragon Three were the three strongest people in the Dragon Guard he had established. When these three people joined forces, even Shang Ming would be in a difficult situation.
Shang Ming thought for a while and smiled.""Your Highness, there is no need to be anxious. We will ride on the national road this time, passing through Hebei Prefecture and heading straight to River East. The entire journey is about 2500 miles. With the horsepower of these five Ferghana Horses, we will be able to arrive in about three days.”
"When the time comes, we can take the waterway from Nanjing to Dali Prefecture in Yunnan. We will arrive in less than seven days.”
Zhu Moxie frowned slightly and said unhappily,""How many times have I told you not to be too ostentatious outside? Just call me Young Master.”
"Yes, yes, yes. This old servant can't change it in a short period of time. I will definitely pay attention next time.”
Shang Ming quickly apologized, but he wasn't worried that Zhu Moxie would be angry. After all, he had given him the fastest route, so he couldn't be happier.
However, Zhu Moxie's next sentence almost made his jaw drop.
"Too slow…"
Zhu Moxie frowned deeply. The fastest speed in Shang Ming's eyes was as slow as a snail in the eyes of a modern person like him. It took ten days to travel from Beijing to Yunnan. This was unimaginable in the future.
It wasn't that he couldn't accept the ten days of travel time, but he was afraid that something might happen.
He didn't think that Noble Consort Wan would have no information about the reason why he left the palace.
If Imperial Concubine Wan and the others knew what Duan Yu's skeleton represented, they would probably do everything they could to snatch it or destroy it completely before he did.
"Young Master, this is already the most efficient route. If we go any faster, I'm afraid we can only fly in the sky.”
Shang Ming smiled bitterly. This Crown Prince's impatient personality had not changed at all.
"Shang Ming, if we ride our horses to Yunnan overnight, how many days will it take to arrive?”
Shang Ming frowned slightly and said truthfully,"If we travel day and night, it will take about nine days."”
"However, that's impossible. Even Ferghana Horses are still living creatures. They can't travel like ships without stopping. Moreover, it's impossible to travel for nine days straight.”
Zhu Moxie thought for a moment and agreed with him. The 800-mile journey was different from normal travel.
They were all prepared to run their horses to death. Every time they reached a relay station, there would be people taking turns to continue the journey. It was almost like a human-shaped perpetual motion machine, naturally fast.
However, this time, he was going to Yunnan personally, so he couldn't do that.
After thinking for a while, he found that with Da Ming's technology, changing from land to water was indeed the most efficient and easiest route.
At that moment, he did not think too much about it. The boat will cross the bridge when it comes to it.
Even if an accident really happened, Yu Zheng, who had received his orders, would probably do his best to guard it.
Having trained these people for ten years, Zhu Moxie believed in their abilities.
Without any hesitation, he crossed his legs and shouted,"Giddyup!"
The Ferghana Stallion seemed to have sensed its master's urgency, and it galloped away in a frenzy.
........
It was almost evening. The sun had already bent down slightly, emitting its afterglow.
Hebei Province, in the city of Shijiazhuang.
It was bustling with noise and a bustling scene. As a provincial city next to the capital, it was not much worse than the capital.
Pa!
Suddenly, the crisp sound of porcelain shattering rang out in the center of the city, attracting the attention of hundreds of people in the city center. They all looked over.
Pa!
Another crisp sound rang out. A young girl in her teens cried out in pain and fell to the ground. She was slapped a few meters away, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
The young girl covered her swollen face, her eyes filled with tears. She was extremely wronged, but more than that, she was afraid.
"Baka! Even the most basic noodles were made like mud. It was ridiculous that Da Ming called himself a country where food was the most important thing for the people. It was simply trash, hahaha.”
A man in loose clothes, a long saber tied to his belt, and clogs laughed disdainfully after a round of mockery.
This man had a mustache, shifty eyes, and short hair tied into a braid. He was obviously not dressed like a Central Plainsman.
These extremely arrogant words naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the crowd. Immediately, a butcher selling pork jumped out from the side of the small noodle stall with a kitchen knife and cursed,"Motherf * cker, which godforsaken place did you come from? You actually dare to bully a woman in my Great Ming territory. I will teach you a lesson today!”
"Good! Beat him up!"
"Chase this son of a b * tch out of Da Ming!"
"It's best to castrate this pigtail. A man who hits a woman for no reason is not worthy of being a man!”
No matter which era it was, the people who stood up were always in the minority, but there were countless people who blindly jeered.
Upon hearing the words that came like a tide, Butcher's forehead also surged with hot blood. He let out a strange cry and raised his Pig Slaughtering Knife to slash forward.
To be honest, killing too many livestock was quite murderous.
The Japanese was slightly stunned, but he immediately smiled disdainfully. There was no need to dodge such a random attack. He tilted his body slightly and stretched out his leg.
Butcher's fat body lost its balance in an instant, and he fell to the ground with a strange cry. His face fell to the ground, and he spat out a mouthful of front teeth, blood flowing out.
The Japanese spat fiercely and scolded,"Vulgar peasant, how dare you draw your sword against a noble Japanese. Today, I, Wang Zihua, will take you away, and you will have to die as an apology!”
Thrust!
He pulled out his katana from his waist and slashed at the motionless Butcher's head.
Just as everyone was looking at this lawless scene in shock, they were stunned.
A furious roar resounded through the sky.
"Bastard! Stop!"
Phew, it's finally the Jianghu chapter. It's still easier to write about gratitude and revenge. Ah!
