Shao Yunduan planned to discuss matters with Lu Min and the Escort Agency, so Qiao Xuan took Liqiu and Lixia for a stroll.
Opportunities were scarce, and Qiao Xuan didn't hold much hope for new crops like potatoes. However, she came across numerous apple and pear trees.
Lixia and Liqiu were easily deceived. Qiao Xuan found a pretext to send them away temporarily. She casually purchased fruit tree saplings and discreetly found a quiet alley where no one was around. There, she stored the saplings in her secret space for safekeeping.
After two days, all repairs were completed, and supplies were replenished. They set off early in the morning, accompanied by the four escorts.
It was early March, and the weather grew warmer as they journeyed northward.
The sun beat down intensely.
Thankfully, the weather remained pleasant, making the travel much more comfortable.
Three days later, they arrived at the capital.
"We've finally arrived!"
