The Northern Defense Post was situated in the northwestern part of Southern Desert County, with West Sea Prefecture to its south and the boundless Dala Desolate Desert to its north. The area of the Northern Defense Post was vast, yet it was sparsely populated, and the majority of its populace resided on the prairies closer to the central region of Southern Desert. Towards the direction of the Dala Desolate Desert, due to the sheer barrenness, hardly any citizens lived permanently, with only herbalists, who earned their living by gathering herbs, occasionally passing through.
It could be said that this was one of the most barren places in the entire Da Qian.
However, in this desolate land where few resided, near the border of the Dala Desolate Desert, stood a solitary town.
To call it a town might not be quite accurate, for this place didn’t even have city walls; it resembled more of a settlement formed by the gathering of many people.
In the center of this settlement was a group of imposing buildings with flying eaves and upturned corners, exquisitely carved beams and painted rafters, all giving off a sense of grandeur.
At the main entrance of this group of buildings stood a towering archway, engraved with the Azure Dragon Emblem that represented the Imperial Household.
On the main gate hung a plaque painted in red with gold inscriptions, bearing the words “An Commandery Prince’s Residence.”
This estate, it turned out, was the home of An Commandery Prince in the Northern Defense Post.
Back in the day, An Commandery Prince chose the Northern Defense Post as his fief and personally designated the site for the Commandery Prince’s Residence, thus resulting in the construction of this An Commandery Prince’s Residence.
As a Quasi Emperor’s Son, the Commandery Prince’s Residence of An Commandery Prince was funded by the Imperial Household. Everything was built according to imperial regulations, naturally exuding an imposing magnificence that totally displayed the imperial majesty.
At that time, many from the Imperial Household’s guards, The head of household, and An Commandery Prince’s followers, including those from the same royal lineage and other complex elements, accompanied him to the Northern Defense Post, a multitude of people.

To facilitate living arrangements, everyone selected sites nearby to build their own mansions.
Over time, this place turned into a settlement. After several decades, it became quite sizable. On the two sparse streets, there were a few pubs, tea houses, grocery stores, and rouge shops, among other stores. Although customers were scarce, it actually gave the settlement a semblance of a town.
On this day, the seldom-opened red lacquered main door of the An Commandery Prince’s Residence suddenly swung open from the inside.
Guards exited in pairs followed by numerous house servants, who began to tidy up the street in front of An Commandery Prince’s Residence efficiently.
One must understand that Northern Defense Post suffered from heavy sandstorms all year round. If the streets were not cleaned every day, they would be covered with fine sand. At this moment, under the skilled cleaning by numerous servants, the streets quickly became very clean and tidy, as if they had never been touched by sand.
Even the Jiaolong stone sculptures at the Commandery Prince’s Residence’s gate were meticulously wiped clean.
Customers at the tea house across the street, surprised by the scene, couldn’t help but chatter amongst themselves.
With such a grand setup, could the An Commandery Prince’s Residence be welcoming an Honorable Guest? Could it be that a certain Commandery Prince from the Imperial Household was coming to visit?
While everyone was puzzled, a grand caravan entered the large settlement, not any less in scale than a town.
This was a convoy comprised entirely of ox carts, a long procession stretching from the door of the Commandery Prince’s Residence all the way out of the settlement. The leading Spirit Cow cart carried the flag of the Qian Family’s business, as well as the emblem of the Changning Wang Clan.
Only when it reached the entrance of the Commandery Prince’s Residence did the convoy gradually come to a halt.
Shortly thereafter, Wu ShengJun, the eldest son of An Commandery Prince and Little Commandery Prince, emerged from the gate with several managers.
Wu ShengJun was a composed young man with handsome features and an upright posture, moving with a natural ease and carrying an innate sense of nobility.
Being born into the royal family, he had been accustomed to interacting with important figures from an early age, which naturally lent him more confidence than the average person in social interactions.
Just as Wu ShengJun stepped out to meet them, the doors of the covered ox carts were also opened, and a young man in a white robe with an extraordinary demeanor stepped out.
It was none other than Wang Zong’an, the Young Clan Leader of Changning Wang Clan.
“Wang Zong’an greets the Little Commandery Prince,” Wang Zong’an bowed to Wu ShengJun with a humble and graceful attitude, “I did not expect to trouble the Little Commandery Prince to welcome me in person, Zong’an is deeply unsettled.”
“Young Clan Leader Zong’an has traveled thousands of miles to support my father in Northern Defense Post, it’s been a tough journey. I should be the one to welcome you. There’s no need for talk of being unsettled,” Wu ShengJun immediately returned the bow, matching the grace, and sincerity in his demeanor.
One was the Little Commandery Prince of An Commandery Prince’s Residence, and the other was the Young Clan Leader of Changning Wang Clan; they represented An Commandery Prince and Changning Wang Clan respectively. This meeting was also a sign of further deepening cooperation between the two sides.
In some ways, this meeting could be described as a historical one.
As the two exchanged greetings, the doors of the subsequent ox carts also opened, and other individuals began to disembark.
Wang Zong’an’s visit was not a solitary one.
Inside the subsequent carts was a vast number of seeds, saplings, and different instruments and equipment developed over the years by the Wang Clan and Changchun Valley in collaboration.
Indeed, to escort these items, they had to travel by covered Spirit Cow carts over land; they spent nearly half a year on the road. Otherwise, if they were to travel from Longzuo County to the Northern Defense Post by flying carriage, it would take no more than seven or eight days.
Accompanying him were Changchun Valley Elders and Disciples, led by Senior Brother Jinshan, as well as many direct and collateral members of the Wang family line, along with their retention of The head of household and house servants.
