Su Bin and his entourage journeyed seamlessly from the capital to Shanglin Prefecture.
Once outside the capital's confines, Su Bin allowed himself to relax. He had no need to rush, and he concocted a story to maintain appearances for the outside world. He asserted that Qin Zhenzhen was experiencing discomfort due to pregnancy, necessitating a leisurely and stable carriage ride.
During the journey, they appeared to be enjoying themselves, and it took them eight days to finally reach their destination.
Throughout this period, Su Bin received secret missives from various quarters.
Upon learning of Su Bin's impending appointment as the governor of Shanglin Prefecture, the Dragon Phoenix Hall promptly dispatched its agents to the region. They set things in order, anticipating the arrival of the incoming governor.
