Chapter 205 It wasn't long before they arrived outside the military camp.

"In my opinion, General Huo should pay more attention to you. But as a woman, when pursuing what you want, you must also pay attention to protecting yourself. Do you understand what I mean?"

Ruan Qing's eyes were red. How could she not understand what A'mei meant?

Ah Mei's words also encouraged her: "Ah Mei...don't worry, I won't belittle myself. I know exactly what I'm doing."

"That's good. Let's go, since you want to be with me."

Ruan Mian smiled slightly and took her to sit on the horse. The two sisters rode quickly all the way to the military camp.

For a long distance, they walked on well-maintained roads. As the saying goes, if you want to get rich, you must first build roads.

After the road was built, even the horses sped up and ran effortlessly.

It wasn't long before they arrived outside the military camp.

The soldier on duty had been rescued by Ruan Qing in the swamp before, and when he saw her, he hurriedly stood up to greet her.

Upon hearing that they were looking for General Huo, he invited them into the barracks without saying a word.

When Huo Zong saw Ruan Qing, his old face looked particularly embarrassed, and he was hesitant about whether to accept the gift.

Even my speech was a little stuttering.

Ruan Mian couldn't bear to watch and decisively stuffed the gift into his hand: "General Huo, this is something my elder sister prepared for you personally. She took pity on you because you are in poor health due to the wind and rain."

Huo Zong's face turned as red as a boiled shrimp.

Although Huo Zong is tall and strong and looks like a rough man, in some aspects, his mind is as delicate as a young boy who has not experienced the world.

Seeing the expressions of these two people, Ruan Mian didn't know when there would be any progress.

But she couldn't care less at this moment and told him the purpose of her visit.

When Huo Zong heard this, he immediately returned to his usual expression.

"Madam Ruan, the master went to Xingjia because his teacher was wrongfully imprisoned, and he had no choice but to go there to take care of everything. But you... it would be dangerous if you went alone."

"If you want to find Wu Heng, I can help you by creating an identity for you, but I don't trust you to go alone."

"Now that you're married to my Lord, if anything happens to you, I won't be able to explain to my Lord Xie."

Ruan Qing also held Ruan Mian's arm worriedly.

"Yes, sister, I'm worried about you going so far away alone. If you go, I'll go with you! The two of us can always look after each other."

"Don't worry about my safety. I will take good care of myself."

"General Huo, if I don't go, I'm afraid the Master will be in danger. Anyway... I'm his wife, and if anything happens to him I have to go and see him. As for me, don't worry."

"I've come a thousand miles into exile, and I've seen all sorts of storms and waves. If I don't go, it would be a huge regret. I'd be worried about you day and night and couldn't sleep."

Ruan Mian patted the back of Ruan Qing's hand soothingly: "When the general was in danger, my sister risked everything to save you. Now that you are doing the same, how can I stand by and watch?"

When this matter was mentioned, both people present were speechless.

When it comes to emotions, there's no point in being rational. But Huo Zong and the others knew Ruan Mian's abilities.

After repeated instructions, he decided to do as Ruan Mian wished and gave her a document containing her new status as a good citizen.

She also disguised herself, wearing men's clothing to make it easier to move around.

General Huo and Ruan Qing personally escorted her to the gate of Wuheng City. Before leaving, General Huo made a promise to her.

"Madam Ruan, have a safe journey. When you arrive in Xingjia, please remember to bring us a letter and leave it at the post station."

"I will personally send Ruan Qing back to the valley later, don't worry."

Ruan Mian nodded, said goodbye to them, and left at full speed.

After leaving the country and seeing no one around, she summoned the big white tiger and ran along the wild road at an even faster speed!

Xingjia is not particularly far away. It is also a big city near Lanqiang, but in another direction.

It would take about two days to get there by normal horseback riding, but less than a day for the big white tiger.

But on the way, Ruan Mian saw a caravan from afar.

She asked the big white tiger to change the route and go around the caravan from next door, but she saw that the flags flying in the caravan looked very familiar.

She thought about it carefully and suddenly remembered that when she passed by a stable in Runing City, she saw these flags flying on the stables.

Could it be that these caravans are merchants from Runing Stable?

She had originally told the owner of a stable to send a batch of duck down to Longchang Post Station every two months.

But Wuheng had fallen into war before, so they probably couldn't come.

Thinking of this, Ruan Mian got off the back of the big white tiger, put it into the space, and approached the caravan alone.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I approached, I saw the familiar face of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper also recognized Ruan Mian, but he was a little bit unconvinced. He wiped his eyes hard, and only got off the horse in surprise after making sure it was not an illusion.

"Mrs. Ruan? Is it really you?!"

At this moment, Ruan Mian also confirmed that the shopkeeper was the shopkeeper Yuan who had signed the contract with him in Runing.

Shopkeeper Yuan was extremely excited at this moment and quickly said, "A few days ago, Wu Heng was at war. I thought Madam Ruan was in great danger. The caravans that were delivering duck down were forced to turn back halfway."

"But fortunately, Wuheng didn't fall, and the situation is gradually stabilizing. I was thinking of coming to the post station to ask in person, but I didn't expect to meet you halfway."

"By the way, Madam Ruan, come and see what these are!" Ruan Mian looked in the direction and saw the shopkeeper opening the stacked boxes, which were full of fluffy and clean duck down.

Packed tightly in cloth bags.

"Madam Ruan, this is only a portion. I've saved up quite a bit for you these days, but I was worried you wouldn't be able to receive it, so I came here in person this time and only brought a portion."

"It's all right now. After I confirm that you're okay, I'll ship the remaining goods to you as soon as I get back!"

"Thanks to you for showing me a clear path, I was able to make a lot of money while riding the wave of opportunity!! So I will definitely do my best to do what you ask me to do."

Seeing these piles of duck down, Ruan Mian was stunned for a moment.

Unexpectedly, Shopkeeper Yuan was so trustworthy. Not only did he come to Wu Heng to see him several times, but he also harvested the duck down on time and with high quality.

Wu Heng had just settled down when he rushed to deliver the goods regardless of the danger.

Even Ruan Mian lost hope and almost forgot about it.

Seeing this, she took out her purse without hesitation and handed the bulging silver money to Manager Yuan.

"Shopkeeper, thank you for your hard work. However, I have important matters to attend to right now and cannot go to Wuheng with you. I'll trouble you to deliver these goods to the post station and hand them over to General Huo. Just tell them that I asked you to deliver them."
