The Beimo Cheng King glanced at Xie Jingchen.
He gently tapped the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse moved forward.
After they left, not even half a cup of tea's time had passed when a man rode over with two guards.
That person was none other than—
The son of the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, Qu Ming.
They were on horseback, but not riding fast.
It had a somewhat leisurely and strolling demeanor.
"Young Master made haste to return, yet was unexpectedly delayed by the Beimo Cheng King for half a day," one of the guards laughed.
The Beimo Cheng King brought many people, taking up the entire official road.
Qu Ming knew the envoys ahead were welcoming the Beimo Cheng King.
It was improper to hasten past them, so they followed slowly behind.
However, fortunately, there were only three more li to go, and he would soon be home.
This whole journey was considered a rest.
