The guard at the city gate was much the same as last time when they came in, except... there were a few more pairs of particularly sharp eyes.
They stopped the carriage, glanced inside, and seeing nothing unusual, let them pass.
However, Meng Yunzheng looked back and noticed that the carriage behind them, also leaving the city, was checked thoroughly inside and out by the soldiers before being allowed to leave.

After the carriage left the city, Shu Yu helped Wei Qin out, letting her lean on a soft pillow and stretch her arms and legs.
Heichang County wasn't very far away. Even at their slow pace, they arrived in the city by afternoon.
