She had a premonition that Gu Qian and Qin Feng would have a life-or-death battle in Northern Qi.
I can't think about it, I can't think about it.
The more Qiu Yan thought about it, the more unstable her mood became.
"If you don't want to go, then so be it. Cousin Ling Ba, Commandant Yuan will be leaving early tomorrow morning. You should stay in the mining area for the next two days. I have Su Su here, so you don't need to worry. The remaining hundred or so soldiers also need a leader."
Along the way, Qiu Yan saw loyalty in Ling Qi and Ling Ba.
What Qiu Yan was thinking was that, apart from the farewell ceremony tomorrow morning, the soldiers were leaderless.
Therefore, she let Ling Ba stay in the mining area.
Ling Ba glanced at Qin Susu and Ma Yi's figures, feeling somewhat uneasy.
This is not their own territory after all. They are out and about, and now they are being watched by King Lu.
"The soldiers themselves are their own backbone; they are all elite troops who have undergone rigorous training."
Qiu Yan: "King Lu won't do anything to us."
Ling Ba: "I am not afraid of King Lu Shi, I am afraid of those barbarian tribes, they will be detrimental to you."
Qiu Yan: "What's there to be afraid of? I'll just avoid them if I see them."
Suddenly, she realized she had overlooked a problem.
That was a horse.
"The soldiers are leaving tomorrow, but they may not be able to make it on foot alone."
Ling Ba: "They're not slow travelers; they'll take shortcuts, and they should be able to get there in a few months." He had, of course, considered this as well.
He originally wanted to buy all the horses from the horse traders, but he didn't have nearly enough money.
It should be said that all the money he and Qiu Yan had combined wasn't enough.
The horses here are cheap, but even the worst ones cost twenty or thirty taels.
A better one costs over fifty taels.
There are over three hundred soldiers leaving tomorrow, and the minimum cost will be six or seven thousand taels of silver.
They didn't have that huge sum of money.
He felt some sympathy for His Majesty, wondering why he always complained about being poor to General Gu.
Several months?
Qiu Yan felt that the daylily was already cold.
Worry settled over her once again.
Money isn't everything, but right now, she really needs it for the sake of her beloved.
Would Mayi agree to lend her ten thousand taels of silver in one go?
Qiu Yan thought about it and realized that her idea was a pipe dream.
How is that possible?
Although the State of Lu Shi may not appear poor, it is, after all, a small country.
As for Mayi, although her status was very noble, in the Central Plains, she could only be considered the daughter of a prefect.
"Let's go, for the sake of the bigger picture."
After saying her last sentence, Qiu Yan waved to Ling Ba and walked towards Qin Susu and Ma Yi.
Ling Ba lowered his eyes and stared at Qiu Yan's retreating figure.
I couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with sorrow.
Qiu Yan and the other two walked unhurriedly toward the inn.
In the middle of the road, Qiu Yan looked up at the sky.
It's already past 7 PM.
She quickened her pace, with Qin Susu following closely behind. Poor Mayi, who had to jog all the way, was panting heavily.
Inside the inn, Jiang Nian'er was also there.
Qiu Yan asked Jiang Nian'er if Vera had checked out.
I know, but I have never heard of it.
She couldn't help but wonder, where had Vera and his servants gone?
Unable to find the person, Qiu Yan began to have doubts.
Could it be that he was really captured and imprisoned by Lu Shijun?
Suddenly, she remembered that Vera had once said she wanted to meet King Lush, and her expression turned serious.
Could it be that he was also mistaken for a spy by Emperor Lu?
She persuaded Mayi,
"You've been out all day, it's time for you to go back."
