"What about those two women?"
"Taking them back will be a merit. They're not particularly useful to us, but it would be different if we handed them to the Spy Bureau or Lord Jingnan."
"The Qian State army participating in the search for us might be larger tomorrow," said Liang Cheng.
With the ongoing developments in Mianzhou city and the repercussions from kidnapping this mother and daughter, it was likely that most of Qian State's border army would be mobilized.
"I'm more worried there'd be too few," replied Zheng Fan.
"Why?"
"Lord Jingnan isn't Blind Bei. I simply don't believe that he would be ignorant of such a large-scale deployment of the Qian State army at the border."
"Is this speculation of yours, my lord?"
"You haven't personally seen that lord. He's definitely not easy to deal with."
"Since my lord has his own calculations, I won't be worried. My lord should rest. I'll handle the night patrols."
"I appreciate it."
