Three days later, the group arrived in Tamsui, and the escort fleet was divided into two routes.

He escorted Mr. Zhao to continue north all the way, and he wanted to go back to Jiangnan with his two sisters and Ye family first.

Zhao Liben and Zhao Shouzheng went directly to Beijing to prepare for various wedding matters. Although the journey north will be closer, it can save many days along the powerful black tide. So they will go east and go back to Tianjin via Diaoyu Islands, Ryukyu, Kyushu Island, and Danluo Island.

After being separated from grandpa and dad, Zhao Hao breathed a sigh of relief. He had no problem with any of these two people. The problem is that when the two of them met, they would not be able to live this life...

Zhao Hao couldn't solve this problem, so he could only avoid it from afar.

It took 1,400 miles north from Tamsui to the Yangtze River Estuary. Zhao Hao walked for ten days. When the town's Japanese voyage arrived at Sansha Wharf in Chongming County, it was already the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month.

Chen Huaixiu, Jin Xuezeng and others were eagerly looking at each other. When the former saw Zhao Hao, he couldn't help but complain: "Why is it still too late? Is it still too late?"

"The northeast wind has been blowing on land for a few days, so how can I not delay it?" Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and said, "Hold on, it's too late!"

Half a year ago, the eldest princess asked the presiding master of Baiyun Temple to show her wedding day. Because she had to combine the eight characters with the five brides, this day was very difficult. This year, it was only the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month, which was very good for everyone.

Otherwise, I have to wait for the next year, because there are no suitable days for the sixth year of Longqing.

High school students know that there is no seventh year of Longqing in history...

So no matter what, Zhao Hao had to arrive in the capital before the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.

And as planned, he had to go to Nanjing and Suzhou, and then head north, with a total journey of more than 4,000 miles.

In twenty days, I have to travel 200 miles against the wind, and it is difficult to just go on a journey...

No wonder Sister Huaixiu is anxious.

Secretary Ma and Qiao Qiaoyi, who were following him, discussed it and whispered: "Or, don't go to Jinling. If you only go to Suzhou, it should be too late."

"No need!" Zhao Hao shook his head flatly and said, "You all belong to Jinling, of course you have to go to Jinling to welcome the bride!"

"If you have this kind of heart, we will be very content." Ma Xianglan said softly: "Don't stick to the form and delay your life."

"That's right, everyone is here, why are you doing it back and forth?" Qiao Qiao nodded and echoed.

"Of course it's to let you go out of your parents' house in a sedan chair." Chen Huaixiu explained to Zhao Hao with a sore nose: "Silly girl, a woman is just one in her life. The young master doesn't want you to leave any regrets."

"I'm very happy if he has this kind of heart." Qiao Qiao blushed and shyly, her tone was no longer so firm, and she felt a sense of happiness.

As for Sister Ma, let alone, she is a model of right and wrong, and she has more expectations for the wedding than anyone else...

"Okay, OK, that's it!" Mr. Zhao rubbed his cold cheeks and said, "I thought about it. As long as we make good use of time management and a little money ability, there is no need to worry about delaying it!"

‘Good guy…’ Jin Xuezeng said that Master is so precious at this time, and he has to take advantage of the situation to get married.

"You, hurry up and find Yang Fan and call a sailboat to come." Zhao Hao ordered him in a deep voice: "He asked Ryukyu how many ships he had asked for, and he probably hadn't demolished them yet... right?"

"Yes, Master!" Jin Xuezeng responded quickly. It was rare to work hard for his master, so of course he had to perform well. He stopped sitting in a sedan chair and rode his horse to the Jiangnan Shipyard.

"You immediately rush to Nanjing to report the news. Be sure to explain clearly. We will come and go hastily. Please forgive them!" Zhao Hao ordered Huang Xiaohu again.

"Yes!" Huang Xiaohu quickly took a boat and got on the horse to Taicang. He rode to Nanjing day and night, and he would almost arrive tomorrow.

"Grandma, you don't have to go to Nanjing with us, just go back to Suzhou." Zhao Hao smiled and said to Ye again: "Xueying needs you very much now."

"Okay." Ye nodded with a smile. From the perspective of time management, going to Nanjing first, then going to Suzhou can save at least a day.

Of course, does Mr. Zhao have any other meaning? She probably has it. But seeing through and not saying it out loud is a good grandma. Moreover, with Xue Ying's strength and status, there is no need to compete for these details. At least there is no need to compete with them.

So Ye took a boat to Suzhou and arranged for Jiang Xueying to get married. This would be good, and he could have several days to prepare and be more beautiful and decent.

When her boat left Sansha Wharf, Qiaoqiao said anxiously: "It should be appropriate to welcome Miss Jiang first?"

"But we were the first to meet each other." Zhao Hao replied softly, letting the slow Qiaoqiao suddenly froze there.

In fact, Zhao Hao wanted to notify Nanjing that using carrier pigeons would be faster, but obviously he would send someone more formally. To put it deeper, isn’t it because of this kind of mentality that he insisted on returning to Jiangnan to welcome the bride?

It is not to be denied that although a man’s heart is divided into many petals, it is impossible to truly divide it in five equal parts.

Qiaoqiao and Sister Ma's status cannot be compared with Xue Ying, nor can it be compared with Xiaojing and Xiao County Lord, but Zhao Hao's heart is heavier.

It is not because of pity for the weak, but because ‘if life is only like the first meeting’. It is because companionship is the longest confession, and staying with each other is the warmest love.

They have been with him for four years, and have dedicated all the best youth and best love to him. Naturally, they will get his purest feelings...

~~

Jin Xuezhe had always been very good at doing things, and soon returned to the dock with a beautiful sailboat.

The paddlers were all skilled Ryukyu paddlers, and Zheng Hui was there too.

After Zhao Hao asked, he found out that it was almost the Chinese New Year. The delegation of the Ryukyu court went to Jiangnan Hospital to visit King Shangyuan. Because the galleys were too eye-catching, Ryukyu officials changed to ordinary sand boats to Kunshan at the Jiangnan Shipyard.

Zheng Feng was not interested in seeing the coffin, so he stayed in the shipyard to see Yang Fanchang. With a comrade-in-arms on Nan'ao Island, of course he had to strike while the iron was hot and have a good relationship with the celebrity in front of him.

When Zheng Feng heard that the young master wanted a boat, he was immediately overjoyed. He didn't expect that he would be lucky... Oh no, the luck and Huagai actually had the opportunity to make a big contribution to the young master's life.

This is a great fortune! He immediately brought the prince's ship with Lord Jin to pick up the prince.

"Then please, please." Zhao Hao was relieved and immediately ordered someone to reward each paddler with a red envelope of 100 taels!

The paddlers were stunned by the big pie falling from the sky and could not believe their ears. It was not until Zheng Xi repeated it with them that they cheered excitedly.

Zhao Hao only has one requirement for them, be fast! He has to race against time!

Without further ado, set off immediately.

As everyone got on the boat, Zhao Hao said to Jin Xuezeng and Yang Fan who arrived: "What's the matter waiting for me to get married, I'm in a hurry now."

"My master is getting married, disciples must follow their own part, right?" Jin Xuezeng smiled and took out a gift list to serve.

"Yes, so do I." Yang Fan also presented a gift list.

"Then I'm not polite." Zhao Hao smiled and waved his hand again, asking the two of them to get away, then turned to look at Chen Huaixiu.

"Old Niu Lao Ma and the others have all joined forces. I know that the young master has no time to talk to them, so I ask me to hand it over." Chen Huaixiu also smiled and took out two gift lists. Needless to say, there is another one of them that belongs to her.

Maybe it was because he returned to the old nest of the Sand Boat Gang, or maybe it was because he did not have the emotional blessing before going to the battlefield. At this time, Chen Huaixiu returned to her former gentleness and restraint, just like the woman who boldly gave him black hair on Nan'ao Island, it had nothing to do with her.

Of course, the more important reason is that she does not want Zhao Hao to disturb his performance at all before his marriage.

Zhao Hao stared at her deeply, and suddenly showed his wrist quickly, wearing a bracelet made of black hair...

Chen Huaixiu's heart was filled with sorrow that she disappeared. She couldn't help but smile and whispered: "You don't think it's messy enough. You'll lose it when there is no one."

"Don't think about it." Zhao Hao snorted and turned around and turned to the boat.

Looking at his back, Chen Huaixiu smiled. The Chongming Island in the middle of winter added a touch of bright color.

~~

As a result, with the help of the northeast wind, the paddlers, who used their strength, went up 600 miles against the Yangtze River in just two days and sent Zhao Hao and his party outside Jinling City.

It was just the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, and Mr. Zhao successfully regained it for at least two days. It can be seen that a very time management master is willing to spend money first.

Huang Xiaohu, who arrived the day before, had already caused the people from Jinling City to take action. Yu Jiachang, shopkeeper Fang, and Qi Jingyun, who has now completely accepted Xiaocang Mountain, have been waiting at the Jinchuan Gate for a long time.

After the greetings, the shopkeeper Fang and his wife took Qiaoqiao home.

Ma Xianglan is an orphan and has no brothers and sisters. Even if there are relatives at home, she will not go to find her again. However, a few years ago, she regarded Yu Jiachang as her adoptive father and went out of his house. Of course, Yu Jiachang was reluctant to ask for it. She had been doing it for a long time at home, so she happily took her home and waited for the young master to come to greet her tomorrow.

After Yu Jiachang let go of Xiaocang Mountain, he thought he was going to be marginalized, but he didn't expect to become the young master's father-in-law. There is no one else in this fortune.

You know, although Mr. Zhao has many wives, he doesn’t have many father-in-laws, and it’s enough to have sex with his father-in-law!

~~

Zhao Hao returned to the Zhao family’s old house on the banks of the Qinhuai River, which was exactly where his dream began...

The winter is short, and it is already dark when you get home. Zhao Hao looked at the familiar and unfamiliar courtyard, and scenes of the past emerged in front of his eyes, and suddenly some different emotions arose.

When I came here, I was still a hidden boy, but now I have grown up and am about to get married.

He suddenly felt a sense of fear of escaping and did not have the courage to face the next big change of life.

At this moment, the guard reported that the Hai Gong was here.

"Hurry and invite me." Zhao Hao was shocked, just like when he was a child, he learned that his class teacher was visiting his home, and he had no small emotions.
Chapter completed!
