The Cold Door Hero

Summary

Li Da Qi's fleet, consisting of over 60 vessels, was secretly transporting people and goods from the capital to escape the Jin Kingdom's invasion. Concerned about military requisition, the ships docked away during the day and only sailed at night. The third group of migrants, including clerks and families, was preparing to leave for various southern destinations, primarily Hangzhou. Li Da Qi had invested in significant land and properties in the south, particularly in Hangzhou, Suzhou, and Mingzhou. The atmosphere in Bao Yan Zhai was tense yet organized, with families quietly waiting to board the limited ferry boats. Tang Zhen Zong and his family were among those migrating, with Tang Zhen Zong planning to stay behind to handle business matters. Li Da Qi requested Tang Zhen Zong's help to relocate his wife's grave back to Tang Yin County, but Tang Zhen Zong advised against it due to familial considerations. After discussions, they decided to level the grave instead. As night fell, the ferry boats began transporting people away from the capital. The next morning, Li Da Qi visited the Cao family to check on their health and offer assistance in transferring their relatives to Hangzhou using the remaining ships. Plans were made for a departure the following night.
