Chapter 1516: Heading to the Lingzhou Prefecture
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gao Feng hadn’t returned yet, so Bai Zhiyan only had a coachman who drove the carriage and a servant who took care of his daily needs. It was quite simple.
Song Dejiang stood at the door and repeatedly reminded his martial nephew, "You’ve just recovered from a serious illness. There’s no hurry to travel. If you’re tired, take a rest. Nothing is more important than your health, understand? Also, I’ve prepared some medicine for you. Take it with you. When you go back, greet Master. If you need anything, write back at any time."
Bai Zhiyan smiled and nodded. There was no impatience on his face at all.
On the other hand, Gu Yundong, who had been here for a quarter of an hour, could not help but yawn when she heard Song Dejiang’s nagging.
Seeing this, Shao Qingyuan frowned. In order to travel early, his wife woke up before dawn today.
In the end, he still had to listen to Song Dejiang’s nonsense for a long time.
He stuck his head out and raised his voice. "Let’s go."
Then, the carriage rumbled and rolled away.
Song Dejiang: "..."
Bai Zhiyan smiled and waved at him. "Uncle-Master, you can go back. I’ll remember what you said."
Then, he instructed the coachman to follow.
Song Dejiang stood at the door and watched from afar as their carriage rode further and further away until it completely disappeared. Only then did he sigh heavily and turn around to return to the courtyard.
The carriage drove on the streets one after another, and it didn’t take long for them to leave the city gate.
After driving for some distance, they saw a group of people waiting in front.
Seeing Bai Zhiyan’s carriage approaching, the leader hurriedly took a few steps forward. "Young Master Bai, you’re here."
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Brother Zhou."
Zhou Han was tall, burly, and strong. He had a hearty smile on his face.
Behind him, there were more than ten people standing there and looking over.
In addition, there were also two to three carriages. The carriages were all piled with medicinal herbs. They were tightly tied up and covered with several layers of oilcloth.
These herbs had to be transported from Huimin Medical Center in the capital to Lingzhou Prefecture. Some of the herbs in the capital were in short supply in Lingzhou Prefecture.
Huimin Medical Center was the business of the Bai Family. The old man of the Bai Family was known as a miracle doctor, so the Bai Family also saved people. There were countless doctors under them.
Most of the prefectural cities around the country had Huimin Medical Center.
However, as a descendant of the Bai family, Bai Zhiyan’s medical skills were not very good. He had only learned a little. According to Song Dejiang, it was probably because he did not have any talent in this aspect. On the other hand, Bai Zhiyan was able to understand books at a glance.
Unfortunately, he was not in good health. Otherwise, he would have participated in the imperial examination long ago. He might even be an Elementary Scholar now.
Gu Yundong had never seen Zhou Han before, but Shao Qingyuan had. They had agreed before that they would set off for the Lingzhou Prefecture with Zhou Han and the rest. They would take care of each other.
After meeting up with Zhou Han and the others, the group quickly drove towards the docks.
They planned to take the water route, but the Lingzhou Prefecture was a coastal place, so they took the outflow river this time and walked along the coastline.
Therefore, the ship this time was larger and more spacious.
Zhou Han had a straightforward personality. Along the way, he was chattering loudly.
Bai Zhiyan liked peace and quiet and had to recuperate. After boarding the ship, it was too rare for him to come out.
On the other hand, Shao Qingyuan and Zhou Han actually became friends.
After a few days of conversation, he finally learned about Zhou Han’s background.
