Su Jin never expected that before reaching the border, she would first become a hostage.
The sun was shining brightly that day, with little wind.
Sitting inside the carriage, Su Jin lifted the curtain to look outside.
They were just a day away from the border, and she felt exceptionally cheerful at the thought of finally arriving after a long journey.
Upon departure from Linzhou, a message was sent to the border to inform the Li Family about the delivery of horses and grain.
The message was delivered, and soldiers were sent to relay information, saying that although this area was within the Daqi territory, there was still a risk of encountering Nanliang people, so they should be cautious, with a plan to send reinforcements ahead.
But they were so close to the border now, why hadn't the reinforcements shown up?
Xingxing was puzzled.
Su Jin said, "Perhaps the situation at the border is urgent, and they can't spare the manpower, or maybe this area is truly safe."
