It was already the peak of summer, and the daylight extended late into the evening. The envoy traveled until the sun was already set before settling down in the middle of a valley.
Chu Qiao and Zhuge Yue were assigned to a single tent. The tent was small and short, such that one would hit his head just sitting upright.
With them, servants were also camping in the outer circle of the campsite. After asking around, they found out that not only the Xian Yang Liu family were present, ut that there was also the Wang, Jia, and Ouyang families.
After the entire day of traveling, Chu Qiao felt weaker than ever. Considering the poor circulation within the tiny tent, Zhuge Yue brought her out and leaned her against a tree to relax. He then bought a freshly hunted rabbit from the other servants and started a fire to cook. Before long, the scent of cooked meat wafted in the air.
