"Fourth Master, are you also traveling with the royal escort?" Xiqiu sat down next to him, calming her emotions.
Since it was previously Han Cheng preparing the way, it seems the matter of traveling beyond the border has been entrusted by the Emperor to the Five Governor's Mansion, and Fourth Master Xiao should indeed be accompanying the escort.
As expected, Fourth Master Xiao nodded and said, "Yes!"
Xiqiu heard this and remained silent. She didn't feel unsafe, after all, with Fourth Master Xiao there, and being an escort, the security would be tight and thorough. She only speculated on the Emperor's intentions for bringing Min along. As a ruler, the Emperor is always under scrutiny, and wouldn't show overt closeness to Min in the palace. So is there another reason for taking Min beyond the border?
