Chapter 480 : Negotiation (2)
It was dark by the time they had almost reached Xinping City. Usually, the city gates would be closed by nightfall. Yuxi was worried and said, “This will delay us for one night. I can’t say for sure that it will take more than two shichen(1) for the General to bring his troops into the city after tomorrow morning.”
The coachman beside her replied, “Madam, don’t worry. Even if the city gate is closed, I still have a way into the city.” Mr Xia had specially arranged for him to see Madam off, certainly not just to drive the carriage.
When they arrived at the city gate, they saw it was indeed closed. But the coachman shouted that an urgent military message was to be sent to the capital, and the gate was quickly opened.
At that moment, the coachman and Master Yang had switched places. The coachman had become the military master, and Master Yang had become the coachman. As for Zijin, she had also entered the carriage.
