Ning Rushen suddenly remembered what Li Wuting had whispered to him before their parting: “Wait for me.”NIKolUUuYReFERKQtqULRQXGKDSADa
coZymhsGKANQQogBut he didn’t expect it to be so soon… Is it because the situation in Lichuan is dire?IhAEsvTyoWbRDwQeFtuJHZfxTLGMEY
jYdVcybkzIZVySV“No…” Ning Rushen reined in his thoughts and asked, “Is His Majesty going to Lichuan or coming to Changshui?”KWIerhzoENcEwDyJQPqxsApaZiWZwm
KAdBGrdySNnLoPNHuo Mian said, “Lichuan is weak, while Longyuan Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is more suitable for stationed troops to plan offensive and defensive strategies.
