Chapter 178
Emperor Yongping spent a New Year in Pingcheng and returned to Jinling in February. The purpose of his return was to prepare for the relocation of the capital.
The new capital has been built, and the court, officials and their families will be moved there one by one.
The first wave of people to move were the royal relatives.
After the decree came down, Yin Hui happily asked people to pack their bags.
Moving is a very tiring task. Even if Yin Hui doesn't have to do it herself, it is enough for her to worry about it. But when she thinks that they are going to Pingcheng, Yin Hui is full of anticipation. She wishes she could leave her luggage behind and take a boat north with her family of five.
However, this kind of beautiful thing can only be dreamed of. In the end, several royal relatives have to get together, form a fleet like they did when they came, and head north in a mighty manner.
The Crown Prince stayed in Jinling with Emperor Yongping. The Crown Princess left first with the people from the Eastern Palace, leaving only two young concubines to serve the Crown Prince.
Married grandchildren have their own boats, while unmarried ones share one boat. Only grandchildren who are five or six years old or even younger will live with their parents. After all, the children have grown up, and there is only so much space on the boat. It would be inappropriate if they accidentally bump into something their elders are doing.
Wei Ning also separated from her parents this time, and accompanied the Crown Princess together with Zhuang Jie'er and Bao Jie'er.
What Xu Qingwan meant was that it would be boring for her to take the boat alone, so she asked her nieces to accompany her. Although she had two daughters-in-law, they had to take care of Dalang and Sanlang. How could Xu Qingwan be the wicked mother-in-law who forcibly separated the young couples?
Yin Hui naturally supported her willingness to take care of her three nieces. It was inevitable that some bumps and bruises would occur if the girls were alone on a boat for a long time. If Xu Qingwan was there, the children would definitely behave themselves and no serious consequences would arise from any quarrels.
Wei Ning was taken care of by Xu Qingwan, and the brothers Wei Heng and Wei Xun lived on the same boat with Liulang and Balang, so Yin Hui was even less worried.
After the fleet set off, on the King of Shu's side, the huge ship was particularly quiet with only two masters, Yin Hui and Wei Ruo.
When he came to Jinling, Wei Ruo worked as a teacher for his two sons for a month. Now that he was heading north, the children had grown up and were traveling by boat alone. Wei Ruo had nothing to do. Every day he either read in the living room or painted. At night, he put all his energy into Yin Hui.
Come to think of it, Yin Hui seemed to have never lived alone with Wei Ruo for such a long time. They were inseparable day and night.
They got married at a young age and were always together at night. Wei Ruo had errands during the day and Yin Hui hardly saw him. Soon she became pregnant, and Wei Ruo even came over less often at night. When Heng Ge'er was born, the couple met again during the day, and the child was always by their side.
"Do you feel that we are like a young couple who go out together right after getting married?"
hat night, Yin Hui lay in Wei Ruo's arms, her face against his chest.
There was no light in the cabin, and it was so dark that one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. Wei Ruo's hand touched her face. Her skin was smooth and delicate, and slightly warm.
