A letter quickly arrived in Liao City.
Ye Zi’an received the letter and imdiately felt a surge of anger in his heart. As expected, it was nothing good.
"A letter arrived?"
"Yes, a letter from Liao City."
Yang Chuxia took a glance, also feeling very angry. They actually wanted to touch her son? And open the city gates? They must be courting death.
"Have soone keep an eye on his movents, and intercept his letters before they reach him. We’ll read them first and then send them out, and also see who he is communicating with from Great Qi."
Yang Chuxia continued, "We need to send letters to Uncle and the Emperor. The letter ntions that a war between the two dynasties is imminent, which seems to be Great Qi’s intention. They might be planning to catch us off guard, and we can’t sit by idly. Uncle needs to co back, and if not him, the Emperor needs to send another capable general to lead the troops."
"Also, before Uncle left, he said he would station half of his troops near Ning City. I think it’s best to deploy them ahead of ti. Liao City is the last barrier between Great Qi and Great Zhou, and it must not be breached."
"Hmm, I understand." Ye Zi’an smiled, "You’re really amazing, dear."
"What’s amazing about that? It’s obvious to anyone who thinks about it for a bit." Yang Chuxia was indifferent; anyone giving it so thought would know what to do now.
"That’s not necessarily true," Ye Zi’an laughed casually. "The average person couldn’t think it through as thoroughly. Like Mu Shaoling, he definitely wouldn’t know these things."
"You brat, talking bad about behind my back, are you looking for trouble?"
A roar ca, stunning Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi’an.
"Did I just hear Mu Shaoling’s voice?" Ye Zi’an asked.
Yang Chuxia nodded, "I heard it too, so you’re not mistaken."
"Uh," Ye Zi’an felt embarrassed, "He’s actually co to Liao City?"
Bang... Just as the words were spoken, the door was kicked open.
Mu Shaoling stood at the doorway, glaring angrily, "Hmph, Ye Zi’an, looking for a fight, are you?"
"I didn’t say anything bad about you!" Ye Zi’an scratched his head awkwardly, "I just think you’re too simple-minded. You don’t consider deeper issues."
"Pah, do you think I don’t know what simple-minded ans? It ans a simpleton. And is simple-minded a way to describe ?" Mu Shaoling said as he punched Ye Zi’an on the shoulder, who surprisingly stood still and let him.
"Wow, you actually didn’t dodge?"
Ye Zi’an rolled his eyes, "Aren’t I just letting you vent?"
"Hmph, that’s more like it."
"Why are you in Liao City?" Yang Chuxia poured him a glass of water and handed it to him.
"I received a letter from Manager Mu, so I rushed to Yunchuan. In Yunchuan, I heard you were in Xining, so I went to the southern part of Yunchuan before coming to Xining," Mu Shaoling asked, "So, did you find Yangyang?"
"Uh," Yang Chuxia asked in confusion, "Didn’t you receive our letter? We sent a ssage to Mu’s Clinic."
"I was only at Mu’s Clinic for two days, so I guess it didn’t reach ."
"Alright then, Yangyang might be in Great Qi now." Yang Chuxia shared the recent news from Great Qi with him.
Mu Shaoling was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
"How can he be so twisted?" Mu Shaoling comnted rudely, "His father liked to snatch won, and he likes to snatch people’s sons. Truly a father-son match."
Yang Chuxia agreed.
"How long are you staying here? Aren’t you going back for the New Year?"
Mu Shaoling shook his head, "Going back now and I won’t make it in ti for the New Year anyway. Besides, there’s dicine I need here in Xining, and it can only be harvested in the last lunar month, so I’ll return after the New Year."
