When they passed by the town, they told Sifu, who was at the main store, that Wufu had disappeared. Sifu also knew that things were different now and did not need to accompany them on long trips. Still, he was afraid that something would happen to the family after they left. Therefore, he did not go with them. He only told them to be careful.
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan then ordered the Cloud Guards and Dark Guards in Xinyuan County to listen to Sifu and Princess Jin's orders during their absence before continuing their journey to Beicheng.
Beicheng was to the North of Da Ling. They had to pass through Jingyue, Changyu, and then the border before they could enter Beicheng's territory.
At that time, they would pretend to follow Da Ling's merchant band into Beicheng.
