Chapter 294: When to Leave

He looked at Ming Zhiyan strangely. He had heard that he was the one who taught that kid Kung Fu. Why did not he know that this kid was such a good teacher?
It seemed that Crown Prince Ming had really changed a lot after coming to Shifeng County.
Looking at Jian Qingqing who was sitting at the side, he asked, “Princess, when do you want to go to the capital? I can arrange for someone to escort you.”
Jian Qingqing was stunned. She had not thought about this. She still had a lot of things to do in Shi Feng County. If she wanted to go, she would have to wait until she had arranged things here before going. That would have to wait until spring next year.
She subconsciously glanced at Ming Zhiyan. Ming Zhiyan was also a person from the capital, so she did not know when he would leave.
Ming Zhiyan received her gaze and said, “I still have to listen to His Majesty’s orders. I should wait until the spring planting next year is over.”
Jian Qingqing was also thinking about that time, so she said to Left Guard
General, “General Shi, I will go with brother Ming when the time comes.”
Left Guard General was surprised. Didn’t most people who were rewarded go to the capital as soon as possible to thank the Lord for his benevolence? Although His Majesty did not say that Princess Ding’an would go to the capital immediately, he had rarely seen such a low-spirited person. It seemed that this Princess was really different.
It was only the end of October now, and the end of the spring sowing was about to come in April next year. There was still nearly half a year’s time. What if the Emperor wanted to see this miraculous Princess Ding’an earlier?
Seeing his dilemma, Jian Qingqing asked, “Does the Emperor mean that I should go right away? This might be a little urgent.”
Left Guard General hurriedly shook his head. “No, no. I was just wondering if it would be too late to go next year.”
Jian Qingqing had missed this part of her consideration. Logically speaking, since the Emperor had conferred the title of Princess, she should have gone to pay him an audience and thank him properly. However, this round trip was too time-consuming, her original plan was to bring her entire family to the Capital after she had settled the matters here. She would not come back if there were no major events in the future.
Ming Zhiyan looked at her with a comforting gaze and said, “It’s fine. I will write a letter to inform his majesty. You can go to the Capital with me next year.”
This time, Left Guard General was not worried at all. The Emperor had always been very tolerant towards Crown Prince Ming. With him around, there would not be any problems.
Jian Qingqing also heaved a sigh of relief and looked at him gratefully.
The group of people stayed here until the afternoon before leaving. Mother Jian had even baked a lot of bread for them to take away.
Left Guard General said, “If the Princess does not come with us, we will have to leave tomorrow. These 20 soldiers were sent by the Emperor to you. In the future, they will stay to protect you.”
The soldiers behind immediately knelt down and said respectfully, “Your subordinate greets your highness the Princess!”
Jian Qingqing nodded and said, “Okay, get up.”
She glanced at Left Guard General and Eunuch Wang and took out a recipe. “This is my own shop. The things inside are not bad. General and Eunuch Wang can go and try it.”
Eunuch Wang laughed until the fine lines in his eyes appeared. “Thank you, Princess!”
After sending Left Guard General and the others off, Jian Qingqing looked at the 20 tall and strong soldiers in the courtyard and felt a headache. She did not know how to arrange these people.
“What are your names?”
“Your Highness, I am Wei Zheng, I am their Captain.”
“I’m Wang Changzhong.”
“I’m Li Tian.”
There were more than 20 people. Jian Qingqing could not remember so many names in a short time, but it did not matter. She just needed to remember the Captain’s name.
She asked, “Then Wei Zheng, how did you arrange it?”
