In the inn, an ordinary-looking little girl walked around the room with her hands clasped together, looking slightly anxious.

“It’s almost noon. Why aren’t they picking me up? Did they abandon me?”

“Hero Xiao Qing, big brother, come quickly!”

“I’m so hungry!”

Wu Yaqing slumped her shoulders and sat on the side of the bed, looking like she had nothing to live for.

Suddenly, footsteps came from the corridor…

Wu Yaqing stood up excitedly and walked towards the door. “Are you Hero Xiao Qing?”

There was a knock on the door, followed by a man’s voice. “Are you Miss Wu?”

Wu Yaqing saw that it was a stranger’s voice and did not respond. She was slightly vigilant.

The man continued, “I’m sent by Hero Xiao Qing. He asked me to send you a letter. Can you open the door? 1’11 give the letter to you.”

At the mention of Hero Xiao Qing, Wu Yaqing believed the man outside. She opened the door a little and took the letter. She asked, “Why didn’t Hero Xiao Qing come himself?”

The man said, “They still have many things to do. They said that they would look for you after they’re done.”

Wu Yaqing asked anxiously, “How long will it take for them to pick me up?”

The man said, “I don’t know. The letter has been delivered. I’m leaving.” With that, he disappeared in a flash.

Wu Yaqing blinked and couldn’t help but reveal admiration. As expected, birds of a feather flock together. Hero Xiao Qing’s friend was also a top expert.

She closed the door and hurriedly took out the letter to read.

“Yaqing, we have a lot of things to do recently and can’t take care of you for the time being. Take care of yourself. We’ll come and look for you when we’re done. Xiao Qing.”

Wu Yaqing looked at the elegant handwriting on the paper. Her eyes widened and she couldn’t help but praise, “Your handwriting is really beautiful.”

“Since you’re not coming over for the time being, 1’11 go eat.”

Her stomach started growling again. Wu Yaqing rubbed it and walked out.

As soon as she went out, she saw two familiar faces. She panicked and immediately closed the door. Her heart thumped in fear. “How did they find me here?”

“What should I do? What should 1 do?”

Wu Yaqing panicked.

After panicking for a while, she suddenly remembered that she had changed her appearance. It was Hero Xiao Qing who changed her appearance. She would definitely not be recognized.

Instead of hiding in fear, she might as well take a gamble. If she lost, she would find another way out. However, if she won, she could walk around freely.

Wu Yaqing’s eyes became determined as she opened the door. She suppressed her panic and calmly waited for two familiar faces to walk over.

In the end, the two guards in disguise walked past Wu Yaqing without even looking at her.

When Wu Yaqing saw this, she was overjoyed. No one could recognize her now.

Haha, Northern border, I’m coming!!!

Wu Yaqing was elated. With a breeze under her feet, she left the inn and set off for the Hong Ding Restaurant. She wanted to have a good meal first.

In the following period of time, Wu Yaqing was very unrestrained.

In an ordinary-looking house.

Li Yuanshao came out of the room. The handsome young master had rested for the night and looked much better. “Are you leaving?”

Tang Jinghong nodded. “1 came to say goodbye to the Seventh Prince.”

Li Yuanshao was silent for a moment. “Will you come back?”

Tang Jinghong said, “We don’t plan to come back. Seventh Prince, thank you for your help these few days.”

“That’s alright.” Li Yuanshao coughed and said, “Heroes, can I have some of your time? I have something to discuss with you.”

“Seventh Prince, please speak.” Tang Jinghong thought to himself. Li Yuanshao was quite patient. He waited until they were about to leave before saying.

Li Yuanshao said sincerely, “Heroes, you’ve all seen the current situation in the northern border. The officials only know how to plunder the people and seek pleasure. They don’t care about the people at all. Now that the people in the northern border are in distress and are having a hard time, they need the help of capable people like you. I’m not capable. I hope that the two of you can stay in the northern border to help the people.”

Tang Jinghong and Chu Qingzhi looked at each other. He was indeed planning to recruit them. The seventh son of the Lord of the Northern Border was probably not as weak as he looked on the surface. He was full of ambitions.

If they were really free people, they could stay. After all, the northern border was really in chaos, but they were not.

Tang Jinghong refused tactfully. “We like to travel around and don’t like to be restrained. I’m sorry. We can’t agree to that.”

Li Yuanshao was disappointed. It was rare to meet such capable people who hated evil and upheld justice.

“The northern border really needs people like you now. As long as the two of you agree, 1 will do my best to satisfy your requests.”

Tang Jinghong suddenly had a thought. The Northern Border was indeed chaotic, and the Lord of the Northern Border was even a fake. If Li Yuanshao could replace the Lord of the Northern Border, it might make the situation better.

However, before that, he had to test Li Yuanshao’s loyalty to the Dating Dynasty.

“Seventh Prince, you have no power or influence. Do you think you can change the northern border?”

Seeing that Tang Jinghong had relented, Li Yuanshao was delighted. “I’m not someone who gives up just because it’s difficult to do. Moreover, with the help of people like you, the difficulty will be much lower. It’s not impossible.”

Tang Jinghong admired Li Yuanshao’s boldness. If Li Yuanshao was as he said, he would probably be a good lord. “Seventh Prince, do you know how powerful the Lord of the Northern Border is?”

Li Yuanshao said word by word, “1 know. My father has 100,000 elite soldiers, 50,000 strong horses, crossbowmen, secret guards, and countless assassins. Even the emperor is afraid of him.”

Tang Jinghong asked with hesitation. “Then what are your plans?”

Li Yuanshao said bluntly, “Since you’ve already asked, I’m not afraid of revealing my thoughts…”

He paused for a moment before continuing, “I want the position of the Lord of the Northern Border.”

“Nowadays, whether it’s a military position or an official position, they can all be bought with money. From top to bottom, everyone is corrupt. Taxation and conscription are heavy. How many children are sold every day? How many beggars are on the streets? How many have died?”

“I don’t want this position for power. I just want the people to live a stable life and let the northern border prosper.”

Chu Qingzhi raised her eyebrows. She did not expect the Lord of the Northern Border to give birth to such a good son.

Tang Jinghong looked at Li Yuanshao. This seventh prince had never had much of a presence in the northern border. He was either sick or about to get sick. It was unexpected that he had such a great aspiration..
