Chen Ji smiled and said, "What I mean is, I could send someone to escort your mother to Luocheng City."
"Ah?" Wang Gui was lost in thought for a moment.
Chen Ji pointed to Chen Mansion, "After we head to the Imperial Capital, this place will become vacant. I'll cover the expenses for the carriage and horses to bring your mother here. In due time, you can settle her in my Mingquan Garden, wouldn't that be wonderful? The mountains and waters of Luocheng City are clear and beautiful, a perfect place for her to enjoy her old age."
"This..." Wang Gui hesitated, his eyeballs subtly shifting as he quickly caught on, "Third Young Master, my mother is advanced in years, frail and weak. I'm afraid she may not withstand the fatigue of traveling several hundred miles by carriage and horse."
Chen Ji calculated the time, "If a fast boat is taken on the Grand Canal, from south to north, it should take about ten days to arrive."
Wang Gui persisted uneasily, "My mother gets seasick."
