Wasn't this a little too solicitous?
Ki Chien-chul pursed his lips: "If I can't fulfill my duties, won't I become the bad husband who doesn't know how to be considerate of his wife? I'm very considerate. Why don't you arrange another job for Luo Yichen? I'll take care of your daily life from now on. "
He purposely spoke in a sarcastic tone. Wei Ziyao knew that he was being petty again.
"Alright, then I'll arrange for Luo Yichen to be Yin Wang. You can be my little attendant from now on."
He guessed that she would say this.
"Luo Yichen's job is to take care of me, but his job is not limited to taking care of me. He also manages the entire Crafty Pavilion. You're the Royal Highness. You have more things to do. Why are you competing with him?"
"That's true." Ki Chien-chul pursed his lips: "But I still want to be a considerate man."
Tsk tsk, if all men in the world had this awareness, there would be world peace long ago.
"You're already very considerate now. Hurry and sleep. We still have to hurry on with our journey after sleeping for four hours."
The two were exhausted and quickly fell asleep. The next morning, just as the sky was turning blue, the two left the temple and headed for the border.
They had been riding at full speed for a few days, but they hadn't seen any traces of the army. This made the two feel a little strange.
"There's a water stall in front. I'll go and ask around."
After traveling for five or six days, Ki Chien-chul urged his horse towards the water stall.
Arriving in front of the stall, he tossed a small silver ingot at the stall and asked, "Boss, have you seen my Northern Qin army pass by here recently? About a thousand people. "
The boss picked up the silver ingot and secretly looked at Ki Chien-chul: "Thank you, Master."
Then he replied without thinking: "This little one has been setting up a stall here all year round. Indeed, there are often troops passing by here, but there hasn't been any in the past half a month."
"Never?" Ki Chien-chul was a little confused and frowned.
"Yes, Master. There definitely hasn't been any troops in the past half a month. This little one dares to guarantee with his life."
"Got it. Thank you."
Ki Chien-chul turned his horse around and returned to Wei Ziyao's side. "The owner of the water stall said they didn't pass by here."
"No?" Wei Ziyao pondered for a moment.
"Is there any other path from here to the border?"
"There are two paths in total. This is the official road, which is the original route. There's also a small path. That path might be faster, but it's often haunted by ferocious beasts. I discussed it with Second Brother before, and he felt that if he encountered ferocious beasts, it would not be worth it, so he decided to take the official road. Did he change his mind at the last minute?"
Changing routes at the last minute?
"Perhaps. After all, the situation at the border is tense, and he also wants to arrive early." Wei Ziyao answered absent-mindedly, and then asked another question.
"How much earlier is that road than the official road?"
"If we take this path, we can probably get there half a day earlier. If we keep taking this path, we can get there a day earlier."
"Only one day earlier?"
If they encountered a ferocious beast and were really attacked, it was even more unlikely for soldiers to be injured. Why should they take the risk for one day?
"Is there any other path nearby that we can take to the path?"
"There is one not far ahead. Let's take the path."
"Let's go!" The two of them looked at each other and clicked.
If the two of them took the path and encountered a ferocious beast, it would be easy to deal with. At most, they could just run.
But a group of more than a thousand people would definitely not be able to escape.
They chased along the path for three or four days. There were indeed traces of a military march on this path.
But this afternoon, they actually saw corpses wearing military cloth armor.
The two of them quickly dismounted to check the situation. There were more than twenty corpses nearby.
"They've been dead for two or three days. Judging by the time, they are indeed our men."
Ki Chien-chul checked the corpses and said to Wei Ziyao.
Then he continued to look. "Ferocious beasts … they were indeed injured by ferocious beasts."
As he spoke, a weak voice came from not far away.
"Help … help me …"
There was actually a living person among the corpses that were obviously torn apart by ferocious beasts!
