"By the way, I know of a mountain path that can lead us to the Capital, saving quite a bit of time, right?" Zhu Xiuqing asked.
"There is a mountain path, but it goes through the Longyan Mountain, and it might not be very peaceful. You, as a member of the Royal Family, are now ordered to escort the An Yun Envoy, so it's better not to take unnecessary risks, lest you fail the Emperor's mandate." Li Dingfeng guessed his intentions as soon as he heard his words. Since leaving the Capital, this guy has been harping about the feast at Zuixian Building with Miss Yue'er. He's eager to take a shortcut back to the Capital. He could only try to persuade him patiently.
"Are you underestimating my skills?" Zhu Xiuqing's face sank.
"I certainly don't doubt the General's skills, but the Emperor specifically instructed that escorting the An Yun Envoy this time is of great importance, and nothing should go wrong on the way. I fear..." Li Dingfeng expressed his concern.
