Ye Shikai whispered a place name in Xue San's ear. Last time at the teahouse, Hua Liandie told him, if there's an urgent matter, go there. Ye Shikai is about to leave He Nei County, which is quite a big deal; if he doesn't notify Hua Liandie, she'll surely chatter on when they meet next time. So he had Xue San take people to notify her.
"Alright, I'll go right away."
Ye Shikai led the cavalry, traveling six hundred miles by day and three hundred miles by night, and returned to Heyang County in just two or three days.
"Eh, Old Ye, why are you all back already." When Ye Shikai returned to Heyang County leading the army, Shangguan Jian hadn't even received the courier's message at the post house, yet the cavalry had arrived first.
