Jin Qianqian was currently troubled by a completely different matter. "It won't be an easy journey. The roads over there are all mountain paths. We need to find someone to ask about it so we can make arrangements early."
"I've already looked into this," Gu Wenheng replied. "Once we return to the Capital, I'll find an opportunity to visit Mr. Cao.
"Mr. Cao used to guard the borders in that area, so he is very familiar with the local terrain and customs."
Jin Qianqian shot him a glance. "Did you already know about this assignment for a while?"
"It wasn't set in stone before, but His Majesty gave me a few potential locations to mentally prepare myself," Gu Wenheng said.
Curiosity piqued, Jin Qianqian said, "And this place was the most difficult of the bunch."
Gu Wenheng nodded. "It seems so on the surface, but I figure the other positions wouldn't have been easy, either."
Given Hua Shunming's personality, there was no way he would let him have too much free time.
