    The person who came to greet them was Zhu Chengye, the Governor of Gucheng.

    Governor Zhu bowed to the two of them: "I have seen the third highness, I have seen the third imperial concubine."

    Li Mingjin had a friendly attitude: "There is no need to be too polite."

    Governor Zhu had dark skin and showed eight white teeth when he smiled: "Then the official will bring Your Highness to the new residence."

    Li Mingjin and his party were busy all the way, so they had to freshen up first: "Okay, settle down first, and we can discuss the other matters tomorrow."

    Governor Zhu: "The official will arrange a dust-cleaning banquet for Your Highness tomorrow night, do you think this is feasible?"

    Li Mingjin nodded, and said concisely: "Yes."

    Governor Zhu smiled again and showed his white teeth: "Then please come this way, Your Highness."

    Governor Zhu led them to the arranged mansion first.

    Except for Luo Shuyu who was sitting in the carriage, everyone else rode forward.

    In the winter, there were only a few people scattered along the street. They looked numb and completely lifeless, probably because of the cold weather.

    Luo Shuyu breathed out, it was really cold outside, it was estimated that people who were still walking outside the house at this moment had no choice but to do so.

    A new city, a new residence, everything was brand new.

    Here, there were no princes who were covetous, and no one would stare at them everyday, and for the time being, there were no malicious eyes.

    However, they couldn’t let their guard down.

    Taking the luggage to the new residence, Li Mingjin was talking to the Governor Zhu at the front, and the polite Governor Zhu made people feel uncomfortable.

    Before coming here, Li Mingjin asked Emperor Tiansheng for a list of local officials and generals, and the one who had been in the office for the longest time was Governor Zhu. He had been working here for ten years and had never left.

    When he was being so polite to Li Mingjin now made Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu suspicious. What they heard about Governor Zhu's character didn’t seem to be like this, according to the memories of his colleagues in the capital, Governor Zhu was always conscientious when he talked and hate evil like an enemy.

 


    Ten years could change a person.

    It seemed that what they inquired about was really different from what they actually saw, and they could only understand it after in-depth contact, otherwise it was really difficult to judge someone’s personality.

    The book was written from the perspective of Shen Mingyun. Most of the content was related to General Zhenbei, and the other characters were very sparse. People like Governor Zhu basically never appeared in the text. Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin could only know about his personality and behavior through inquiring.

    When they saw him today, they found that this person didn’t match with the rumors. They never heard anyone mentioned that his skin was dark, and he was relatively smooth in dealing with things. At first glance, he looked like a good old man and easy to talk, but in fact he didn't provide them with any information.

    Luo Shuyu didn't think much about it for the time being, but he just wrote down the doubts in his heart. There would be a dust-cleaning banquet for Li Mingjin and him tomorrow. He would also attend the banquet at that time, so he could study it carefully.

    The residence that Governor Zhu arranged for them was a three-entry mansion. Although it was not as unique and spacious as their mansion in the capital, it should be one of the best mansion in Gucheng, it was enough for Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu to live here for a year or two.

    Governor Zhu thought that the third prince and the third imperial concubine would have objections to this, but he didn't expect that they didn't feel dissatisfied at all and moved in directly.

    After Governor Zhu completed his guiding task, he left.

    Qingwang directed the servants to start cleaning the main courtyard. First, they cleaned the room that Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu were going to use tonight. They really saw the kang that was rumored to be used only by people in the north, and it could be used as a couch, which was very easy to use.

    After the cleaning was almost done, Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin began to lie down on the kang that could be called a bed and have a good sleep.

    They were too tired, they purely slept, the tension over the past month was relieved, and both of them fell into a deep sleep.

    The next day.

    Luo Shuyu got up first, and began to adapt to the life in the north. The breakfast could no longer be delicate and rich like when they were still in the capital. On the way here, he was used to a rough life, so he adapted to it fairly well, but if he could make it better, he should try to eat as good as possible.

    In the north, they needed to eat more to keep warm when it was cold, and Li Mingjin had to be full for breakfast.

    They brought two cooks from the capital, the cooks got up early in the morning to steam the soft and delicious steamed buns from the capital for them.

    Just now he entered the kitchen to take a look at the progress, and then Luo Shuyu saw Qingwang who was rushing towards him.

    Qingwang: "Master."

    Luo Shuyu took a sip of hot tea: "What's the matter?"

    Qingwang: "Mr. Chen is not acclimatized, and he had diarrhea and kept vomiting yesterday."

    Luo Shuyu: "Then go and invite Doctor Fang to take his pulse. "

 

Doctor Fang was the doctor who treated Li Mingjin's leg injury before. This doctor could be considered decathlon, he was an expert for injury such as contusion, sprain or fracture from falling, blow etc, but for the other aspects, he may be lacking.

    Qingwang: "I have already invite Doctor Fang, but it seems that the medicine he gave didn't work. The servant said that Mr. Chen has been suffering from a high fever."

    Luo Shuyu: "Take a look if we can hire a doctor in the city who knows a lot about the sickness because of not acclimatized. Send someone to inquire about it, if there is any, please let the doctor come here immediately. "
