Arriving in Shangjing

Fan Xian shook his head with a smile, showing he hadn’t suffered from loneliness during the trip. He knew that ever since he became a frequent visitor of Si Lili’s carriage, he and the word "dissolute" probably became inseparable in the eyes of others. He thought for a moment before saying, "We’ve been traveling at a fast pace on the official route for several days. We should have passed the distance between the capital to the border… It seems like Northern Qi’s territory is quite vast."

For a moment, a strange silence fell over the carriage.

A while later, Lin Jing smiled. "Indeed. Although last year we took a large piece of land from them, Northern Qi still remains the biggest nation in both territory and population. They weren’t a strong opponent only because of many years of civil unrest, which caused the people to become fractured."
