Wei Shao made up his mind and no longer hesitated. He immediately turned around and continued southward. Taking a shortcut through the wilderness with a short pause in between, and at noon the next day, he turned back to the highway.
It was only half a day horse ride from Jiu Li Pass. Soon he should be able to intercept her at the front.
Wei Shao didnt feel tired but energized. Imagined her surprised look when she saw him in front of her. His subordinates, who had refined by a hundred battles, were forced to follow him. Their lord was like this, and naturally, they sacrificed their life to follow closely, do not dare to slacken.
They pass through the villages along the way and constantly see villagers pulling their families to walk on the road. The villagers were walking or pushing wheelbarrows, and they all seemed to be heading towards Jiu Li Pass, with strange colors on their faces.
Wei Shao didnt notice at first. However, it was still the same after passing a few villages along the way. His heart became suspicious. The horses were tired of running, so they stopped at the side of the road and were fed bean cakes for a rest. He asked Lei Yan to inquire.
Lei Yan stopped the villagers to ask a few questions and soon returned. He said, The villagers heard Xue Tai wanted to break the Huai River upstream dam and flood Xiaodi. Because of the low-lying terrain in this area, they fled for their lives lest it turns into a swamp.
Wei Shao pondered and saw a group of villagers walking across the street who was having trouble escaping and went over.
The villagers saw although they were in ordinary clothes, the horse was fat, and the people were strong and carrying swords. Their aura was majestic, unlike local people.Visit for the best novel reading experience
In this world, it was not easy to find a home and livelihood for ordinary people, not to mention to provoke. They wanted to move to the other side, but the young man in the middle came. They stopped and looked with a slight fear of wariness.
Wei Shao walked up to the villagers and asked for more details. When the villagers saw he was unexpectedly kind, their fear was dispelled, and starting to complain.
Last month, Xue Tai attacked Xiaodi, a place not far from here that belonged to Yang Xin.
Xiaodi holds the channel of the Huai River waterway. It was geographically crucial and could not be lost. Yang Xin sent his men to defend the city to death. Xue Tai could not win for a long time, so he planned to divide his troops into two ways, one to continue the siege and the other to go upstream behind Xiaodi, break the dam, and flood the city.
This area was near Xiaodi and situated on a slope, so the people of the nearby counties fled to avoid the disaster.
Da Qiao smiled, hugged Xiao Qiao, then raised her hand, tenderly helped her brush a lock of hair behind her ear, and said: Younger sister, after we left, I figured it out. That day you said you wanted to marry Marquis Yan on my behalf, but it was just an excuse for you to let me leave at ease. Ive had a good life, but you joined the Wei family on my behalf. In the past year, I felt uneasy. I learned about your situation from Mr. Zong, so we were relieved. This year must have been difficult for you, right?
Xiao Qiao smiled brightly, Sister, the Wei familys Grandmother is very nice and treats me well. I can go to the south and return home because of her.
How is your husband treating you?
Xiao Qiao saw her beautiful eyes looking at her with concern and guilt. After a pause, her lips came up to Da Qiaos ear, whispering. He treats me well. I beat him, but he is not angry with me.
Da Qiao was stunned to see Xiao Qiao smiling and looking at herself with a playful face. She looked back and couldnt help but lose her smile: Why did you beat him if he treats you well?
Xiao Qiao said, He annoyed me first.
Da Qiao shook her head, Then you cant hit your husband! I was worried about
Xiao Qiao smiled cheekily and interrupted her, Sister, dont worry about it! I will live a good life by myself!
Da Qiao knew the unresolved enmity between the two families.
She heard about the Marquis of Yan, Wei Shao, and shuddered when she knew how he disposed of Li Su. Although she hadnt seen him, she imagined he would be a powerful and invincible man, but she didnt expect he would behave like this with her sister in private.
She has been married to Bi Zhi, and Bi Zhi treated her with consideration in every way. She has a gentle nature. It was difficult to imagine how her sister beat Marquis Yan, but he did not get angry.
If his wife beat him and was not angry, it could assume he was very fond of her.
She had been guilty of getting a husband of her choice but leaving her sister in deep trouble. Now, it seemed it was false. Xiao Qiao and Marquis Yan are in harmony and love.
Da Qiao put her heart down completely and held Xiao Qiaos hand, saying, This time, stay for a few more days. When its time to leave, Ill have your brother-in-law send you back to Yuyang.
