Inside the carriage, two ministers sat opposite each other.
The minister with the short beard wanted to speak, but the minister with the long beard hastily raised his hand and said in a low voice, "Be careful, the walls have ears, let's talk when we're somewhere more secluded."
The short-bearded one nodded.
Upon their command, the carriage deliberately took a quiet route.
Once they reached a secluded place, the minister with the short beard couldn't help but whisper, "The Khan acts with such decisive swiftness, directly stripping the Ninth Prince of his fief in Yanzhou."
"Indeed," said the long-bearded minister, "I had no idea the Flame Army that the Khan trained was so formidable. Supreme General Zuo led only a thousand Flame Army soldiers, yet they quelled the Yanzhou rebellion overnight, despite there being several thousand soldiers within Yanzhou City."
