The border is far from the capital, and Mingzhu is pregnant, so she can't travel quickly.
After stopping and starting, it took nearly two months to reach the border.
At this point, Mingzhu's pregnancy was showing, and if she wore thin clothes, her belly would be quite obvious.
Their accommodation has already been arranged—it's in the General Mansion in Yanzhou City.
The carriage stopped at the mansion's gate, and the steward led the people to greet them at the door.
The first to get off the carriage was Xie Yunzhen. He wore a dark purple brocade robe, his stature was tall and he had a dignified and noble demeanor.
His appearance was quite different from many military generals, looking more like a refined scholar.
After the driver set down the steps, Xie Yunzhen tested them; they were very stable.
Only then did he reach out to help Mingzhu out, his gaze fixed tightly on her feet.
