Although it was already late at night, the news of Zhao Hao's assassination quickly reached Xie Daoxun's ears.
She immediately came to the garden where Zhao Hao lived to check on Zhao Hao's condition.
Although Zhao Hao lay down again, it was impossible for him to fall asleep after experiencing such an incident.
Seeing Xie Daoxun coming, Zhao Hao invited him into the house. They both sat down and he personally made a cup of tea for him.
"I'm not injured, so there's no need to trouble you, Prime Minister, to make this trip so late at night."
"The young master was assassinated because my arrangements were not thorough enough."
Xie Daoxun said: "Fortunately, the young master is fine, otherwise, I would have broken my promise and gained nothing!"
"After all, I have made a promise to you that I will ensure your safety."
She changed the subject and asked, "Sir, do you know who is the one who came to assassinate me?"
Zhao Hao picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "He is the commander of the Qingqi of Dagan, and also Jiang Waner's personal attendant."
Xie Daoxun's eyes flickered, and he nodded slightly, saying, "No wonder, under such tight defense, he was still able to sneak into the young master's room and assassinate him."
The Dagan Green Riders are well-known throughout the world, and each of them possesses extraordinary combat power.
It is conceivable how powerful the leader of the Green Cavalry would be.
Xie Daoxun said, "Sir, it is not appropriate to stay here for long. Let's go to Licheng tomorrow morning!"
Zhao Hao nodded and said, "Everything is up to the Prime Minister's orders."
Xie Daoxun said, "Sir, it seems that Da Gan is very eager to kill you."
"In this case, sir, don't you still want revenge?"
Zhao Hao said softly: "I understand what the Prime Minister means, but I have already taken out the methods of making real thunder bombs and thunder cannons, and the methods of smelting high-strength steel."
"As for the rest, I really can't help you with anything else!"
Revenge is necessary, of course, but now is not the time for him to do it himself.
He needed to confirm that the Wu Kingdom was not the same kind of country as Dagan.
Hearing what Zhao Hao said, Xie Daoxun naturally understood in his heart that this was because Zhao Hao was still worried.
In that case, she didn't say much.
After drinking a cup of tea, he said goodbye to Zhao Hao, got up and walked out.
After seeing Xie Daoxun off, Zhao Hao's mood calmed down and he fell asleep on the couch.
The next morning, the team continued to set off, leaving Xingcheng and heading towards Licheng.
Licheng was also a big city in the northern part of the Wu State.
It is about three hundred miles away from Xingcheng.
The team no longer had to rush along and avoid pursuers as they did before in Dagan.
The walking speed was not too fast.
It was also Zhao Hao's first time to come to such a southern place. The temperature was quite pleasant, which made him feel a lot better.
Xie Daoxun was still busy with official duties. Even when she was on the road, there were various state affairs that needed her to deal with from time to time.
The two of them rode in the same carriage, and Xie Daoxun had no intention of avoiding Zhao Hao.
Always so calm, so composed, and handles all kinds of things calmly.
From time to time, she would ask Zhao Hao for his opinion on certain issues.
Zhao Hao naturally shook his head, indicating that he didn't know what to do.
Xie Daoxun didn't take it seriously and continued to ask him questions, seemingly enjoying it.
Compared to answering Xie Daoxun's questions, Zhao Hao would rather use his eyes than speak.
Although Xie Daoxun still maintained her appearance after disguise.
However, her eyes could not be disguised.
These eyes are clear and deep, bright and quiet.
It is something that people will never forget even if they only take one look at it.
After entering Licheng, the team came to a large manor.
The scale is slightly smaller than the one in Xingcheng, but it is more exquisite.
This time, Xie Daoxun also stayed directly in the garden.
She lived in the main house facing south, while Zhao Hao was arranged to live in the side room.
Two people per yard.
There are always two teams of guards guarding inside and outside the yard.
The two of them had dinner together, and then Zhao Hao got up and returned to his room.
Not long after, Xie Daoxun walked in.
Zhao Hao couldn't help but get up from the couch and asked, "What's the matter, Prime Minister?"
Xie Daoxun came over, sat down on the chair, nodded slightly, and said, "There is indeed an important matter that I would like to discuss with you, young master."
Zhao Hao got up from the couch and walked to sit opposite Xie Daoxun.
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, please feel free to speak."
Xie Daoxun said, "Sir, it is just as you said before."
"Nowadays, what Dagan lacks most is time."
"As long as they are given enough time, they will definitely be able to unify the nine provinces."
"therefore……"
Zhao Hao didn't say anything. He looked at Xie Daoxun, waiting for him to continue.
Xie Daoxun paused for a moment, then continued, “Therefore, my idea is to stop the development of Da Gan as much as possible.”
"We should continue to put more pressure on Dagan."
Zhao Hao nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed necessary."
"We can't let the big work continue to develop peacefully and steadily."
"Otherwise, you three nations won't be able to catch up."
Xie Daoxun said: "So, I would like to ask you, sir, how should I start?"
Zhao Hao smiled and said, "The Prime Minister is a man of extraordinary talent."
