All of a sudden, the atmosphere became cold.

Many guests' eyes were fixed on Shen Peiqing.

Seeing this, Master Jiang spoke first, looking at the two guests: "Uncles, now is the day of festival and reunion, wouldn't it be better if we chat about some happy and joyful topics? We can discuss other matters later."

The host had said so much, and the two guests did not want to ask any more questions, so they raised their glasses in a toast.

This matter will be settled.

After the banquet that evening, Rong Su found Shen Peiqing and asked him calmly, "Lincheng is no longer safe. What are your plans?"

Shen Peiqing didn't expect Rong Su to ask this. He couldn't help but look at her deeply, and then his heart was filled with joy.

But his face showed no expression or emotion. He said softly, "Lincheng is indeed unsafe. I need to follow you. Wherever you are, I will be there. After all, I still need your treatment."

This is true, but somehow, when it came out of Shen Peiqing's mouth, it seemed a little subtly strange.

Rong Su suppressed this strange feeling, nodded, and said, "Go to Dongzhou."

This was what she had just thought of. To cure Shen Peiqing, she would need those two herbs, and those two herbs were now in Dongzhou.

"Dongzhou?" Shen Peiqing looked at her in confusion.

Rong Su explained calmly, "That's right. Dongzhou has the herbs we need, and it's quite a distance from Beizhou and Zhongzhou. Do you think that person's influence will spread to Dongzhou so quickly?"

After thinking about it, he decided to ask Shen Peiqing for his opinion. After all, he was the one who was wanted.

Hearing this, Shen Peiqing frowned and pondered for a moment before replying calmly, "It won't happen that soon. Besides, the relationship between Dongzhou and Beizhou has always been very delicate. While it may seem calm on the surface, there are undercurrents underneath. Unpredictable wars may break out at any time."

As the former crown prince of Beizhou, Shen Peiqing has a very thorough analysis of the current court situation and is trustworthy.

That's why Rong Su asked for his opinion. After hearing this, Rong Su became more determined to go to Dongzhou.

Dongzhou is the only place where they don't have any common enemies, and it's possible that their enemies are their enemies.

The enemy of my enemy can become a friend or an ally.

After making the decision, Rong Su asked Shen Peiqing to inform Shitou, while she went to inform Gu Yun and Gu Yuer.

Then he began to plan to build a sturdy carriage.

A few days later, at the largest car workshop in Lincheng.

There are carriages of various styles inside, some luxurious, some simple, and some elegant.

Now, there is an extremely huge and elegant carriage in front of the workshop. Judging from the carriage, it can seat more than ten people. The overall structure is sturdy and beautiful.

Even the four horses in front of the carriage were strong and sturdy, with shiny hair and agile limbs. They were obviously good horses that could travel a thousand miles a day.

Many people couldn't help but stop and look at this simple and huge carriage.

The owner of the carriage workshop walked out of the house with a smile and walked straight towards Rong Su who had just arrived.

He rubbed his hands together, a smile plastered across his face. He bowed and began to show off the carriage, saying, "Doctor Rong, look at this carriage. I built it just according to your specifications, using a large sum of money. It's worth five thousand taels. Whether it's the carriage, the wheels, or the horses, I've found you the best."

Rong Su walked to the side of the carriage, observed it carefully, and touched it from time to time.

"Doctor Rong, you can also go inside the carriage and take a look. You will definitely be surprised!" said the carriage owner with a mysterious smile.

She glanced at him, then thought for a moment, stepped onto the low couch, and got into the carriage.

I reached out and lifted the curtain of the car. I looked inside and saw that it was so spacious, like a small room.

There are soft couches on both sides for people to sit on, and in the middle there is a low table that is embedded in the carriage and has several small drawers on it.

The patterns on the drawers are lifelike, carefully carved birds, fish, grass and insects.

There is a couch further inside the low table, covered with a layer of bedding that looks very soft.

The couch seemed quite large, perhaps enough to accommodate two people.

"Doctor Rong, look, does this match what you have in mind?" The coachman rubbed his hands, stood outside the carriage with a smile on his face, and said to her.

Rong Su slowly lowered the carriage curtain and turned around to get off the couch.

She was quite fond of this carriage. After all, it had what she wanted and was big enough.

She came to the four horses and stroked their hair a few times. It was indeed smooth and delicate.

"These four horses were specially transported here from Northern Continent. They're said to be the finest horses, and these four are the best. They can easily travel a hundred miles a day!"

The owner of the carriage workshop was also a down-to-earth person. He didn't even brag about her, but instead said what he wanted to say.

No matter how she looked at it, this carriage was exactly what she needed, if only the price could be lowered.

Thinking of this, Rong Su frowned, and this expression was quickly noticed by the workshop owner. He immediately became nervous and asked hurriedly, "Doctor Rong, is there anything else you are not satisfied with? If so, please tell me, and I can have someone do the modification immediately."

Rong Su began to find fault: "First, the carriage is large enough, but the interior is too flashy and lacks practical space. Then, these four good horses you mentioned are a bit inconsistent in size. I need horses of a uniform size, otherwise it will look weird."

After saying all this, a thin layer of sweat broke out on the forehead of the workshop owner. He raised his sleeve to wipe it off. It seemed that Rong Su had touched upon his weakness.

"Doctor Rong, I'm so sorry, so sorry. I'll have someone write it down and make the corrections right away!"

He quickly made the promise and asked the store workers to come over with paper and pen to write them down one by one.

The reason Rong Su said this was not to let him waste time making changes, but to lower the price.

"no need."

The owner of the carriage workshop thought that Rong Su didn't want the carriage anymore, and suddenly became a little anxious.

"Doctor Rong, is there anything you're not satisfied with? Just tell me, and I'll definitely modify it according to your needs."

Seeing the anxiousness of the carriage workshop owner, Rong Su remained expressionless and said calmly, "I need the carriage on a certain day. If you make any further modifications, it will delay my trip."

After hearing this, the owner of the carriage shop began to sweat more and more on his forehead. He looked as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, and seemed to be constantly thinking of ways to remedy the situation.

Seeing him so flustered, Rong Su already had a chance of winning by lowering the price.

"Well, it's not like this carriage doesn't meet my requirements at all. It just has some disadvantages. But that's not a problem. I'll buy it for three thousand taels."

As soon as he finished speaking, the workshop owner's eyes widened instantly, as if he was shocked, and then he shook his head in embarrassment and disagreement.

"This, this won't do. Three thousand taels, how can that be possible? Doctor Rong, this carriage is made of the finest materials. I simply can't sell it to you for three thousand taels."

Rong Su understood the workshop owner's refusal and said calmly, "You have to know that few people are willing to spend a lot of money on a carriage like this. If you don't sell it to me, it will remain unused. The longer something remains unused, the more damage it will suffer. By then, you might not even get back the three thousand taels."

These words are not meant to scare the workshop owner, they are also true.

The owner of the carriage workshop also understood this logic, but the price was suddenly too low, and he must have felt uncomfortable.

Rong Su didn't urge him, but her expression was calm and natural. She didn't show any liking or dislike for the car.

The workshop owner saw her expression. After a while, he finally gritted his teeth, raised three fingers, and opened his palm.

"Three thousand five, Doctor Rong, no less. This is the price I can accept. After all, I really spent a lot to build this carriage."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Rong Su smiled faintly, took out a bag from his sleeve and handed it to the workshop owner.

"Here are three thousand five hundred taels, three thousand taels of silver notes, and five hundred taels of silver. Count them."

The workshop owner was stunned for a moment, then realized that Rong Su had agreed to the price. He immediately smiled, took it quickly, and began to count it carefully.

After counting, his smile never changed. He put away the silver and looked at Rong Su and said, "Haha, that's right, that's right. Thank you, Doctor Rong."

Rong Su smiled lightly, then said, "Please help me take the carriage to Jiang's house."

After saying that, she took out another ten taels of silver and handed it to the owner of the carriage workshop.

When he saw it, his eyes lit up a little more. He took it very actively, bowed and responded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I will definitely have someone send the carriage to Jiang's house."

Seeing that the work was done, Rong Su went home.

As soon as I returned to Jiang's house, I ran into Shen Peiqing walking out.

Shen Peiqing also saw her, stopped and asked, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to see the carriage being built. We'll leave for Dongzhou tomorrow." Rong Su answered him concisely.

Seeing that Rong Su didn't want to ask him, he was a little hesitant, but he still said directly: "I'll go find the stone."

After hearing this, Rong Su nodded and walked straight into Jiang's house.

Seeing her leave, Shen Peiqing felt a little more disappointed, but he couldn't express it. He could only suppress his emotions and left Jiang's house with an expressionless face.

When the Jiang family learned that they were about to go to Dongzhou, they were all very surprised.

Jiang Yanyu even acted very reluctant, looking at Rong Su and said, "Miss Rong, have you really decided to leave Lincheng so soon?"

This is inevitable, she can't stay here forever.

"Not any time soon. I've been in Lincheng for a while now, and it's time to leave. And Dongzhou has the herbs I need to find."

Rong Su is not good at expressing emotions, so she just says what she wants to say.

"Is that so?" Jiang Yanyu said softly with some sadness.

Rong Su had no words of comfort to say. Just like when she left Ningcheng before, facing Xiao Huan's sadness, she could only choose to ignore it.

He turned to look at Yuan Shen and said to him, "Mr. Yuan, I'll trouble you to take care of the clinic. I'm sorry, it was clearly my request to open the clinic, but I, the one who opened the clinic, am not here, so I left it to you to take care of it. However, during this period of time, all the income from the clinic can be given to you. And the cost of purchasing herbs can be charged to me. When I come back later, I will pay it in full."

Yuan Shen didn't care about this. Instead, he smiled and said, "I'm very happy to run the clinic. Every day when I see patients, I feel the joy of regaining my medical skills. I had neglected my medical skills before, but it was the Five Copper Coin Clinic that helped me rediscover them. In fact, I want to thank you for opening the Five Copper Coin Clinic."

Seeing that Yuan Shen did not refuse her, Rong Su smiled back at him politely.

Gao Zhuangshan came over at some point. He knew that Rong Su and the others were about to leave, so he walked in, sat down, and said to Rong Su.

"Doctor Rong, if you need a carriage, tell me. I'm very familiar with the owner of the carriage shop. I can ask him to return the money you spent on it to you!"

Rong Su began to feel sorry for the boss because he was so generous and magnanimous. She had previously begged him for two thousand taels of silver, and he already looked very painful. If she asked him to return all the silver now, he might cry.

"No need, I will give you the money you deserve." Rong Su declined politely.

Seeing that Rong Su refused, Gao Zhuangshan didn't know what to say. He raised his hand and saw a servant coming over with a box and handing it to her.

She was a little confused, but she still took it and opened it. She saw some small change and a trade clearance certificate.

"I personally asked the governor for it. I know that to pass through Dongzhou City, two kinds of credentials are required: one is the customs clearance certificate for foreign envoys, and the other is used for business. I have been to Dongzhou for business before, so I am familiar with the process. The remaining small change is my gift to you!"

Gao Zhuangshan explained the contents of the box with a hearty smile.

If Gao Zhuangshan hadn't said it, Rong Su would have almost forgotten that in order to pass through Dongzhou City, one must have a pass.

"Then I would like to thank Mr. Gao." Rong Su put down the box, cupped his hands, and thanked Gao Zhuangshan.

Gao Zhuangshan waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "It's just a small matter. The most important thing is that I can help Miss Rong."

Rong Su will still keep this affection in her heart.

After that, everyone talked to each other for a few more words and said goodbye briefly.

Early the next morning.

The large carriage was parked outside the city, attracting many people to stop and watch and admire it.

Rong Su and his group have already arrived outside the city, and the Jiang family has also arrived here.

Jiang Yanyu walked up to Rong Su and Gu Yuer, hesitated for a long time, and then looked at them and said, "Can I hug you?"

It seemed like an unwilling request, but Gu Yuer was very happy to do it. She opened her arms and gave Jiang Yanyu a hug.

"Of course you can!"

Afterwards, Jiang Yanyu looked at Rong Su again with an embarrassed look on her face.

Rong Suqian sighed, without saying anything more, and slightly opened her arms. When Jiang Yanyu saw this, a smile instantly appeared on her face. She walked over and hugged her.

"Miss Rong, I always feel like I've known you for a long time. I hope we can exchange letters more often in the future."

Ever since he knew that she had a connection with Jiang Yanyu in her previous life, Rong Su was unable to answer her for a while, but they could still communicate through letters.

"Yes, letters, yes."

Afterwards, after everyone said goodbye one by one, Rong Su and the others got on the carriage and started heading towards Dongzhou.

After driving a short distance, Gu Yuer suddenly remembered something and looked at Rong Su and asked, "Sister Rong, have you forgotten someone?"

Rong Su was puzzled when she heard this: "Who is it?"

"Yulan!" Gu Yuer looked at her in surprise.
