Chapter 302: The world outside 302 is big. Chapter 302: The world outside 302 is big. Satisfied, Ye Jiu stood up and said to Ye Wenzheng, “It’s merely managing a manor. Though Shuangxi Town is not small, it is only a town after all. The world outside is vast. This trip will definitely not disappoint you.”

Indeed, Shuangxi Town is just a town. The outside world is still vast.

At that moment, Ye Wenzheng saw the ambition in Ye Jiu’s eyes.

At the same time, he understood that what Ye Jiu would possess in the future was definitely not just a small manor in the town. And as long as he worked hard, he would definitely be more than just a minor manager of a manor.

In an instant, Ye Wenzheng’s heart was filled with boundless pride.

He wished he could immediately settle everything and start their new journey toward the capital city.

In the border town under the blazing sun,
In a guest house of the Sikong Residence, Sikong Mo sat in a room dressed and furnished modestly.

Lifting the teacup from the table and gently sipping at his thin lips, his god-like features, coupled with an indifferent expression, looked exceptionally pleasing to the eye.

The Sikong Royal Residence in this border town had been there for many years. However, until a couple of months ago, it was like a mere decoration, its master barely stepping foot into it once a year or so.

But recently, Sikong Mo often made trips here, whether there was a reason or not, sitting alone in the room, a single cup of tea lasted a long while…
Standing up and looking at the bed not far away, he could imagine how she looked when she lay there!

He had clearly told her to wait for him, yet she quietly left.

Did she not want too much contact with him?

Heh, a cold laugh escaped his lips.

The expression on Sikong Mo’s face gradually turned cold.

No one had ever dared defy his orders, yet she took his words as if they were nothing.

Women, indeed, are the most annoying creatures in the world.

Yet, touching the Magnet Vest he still wore, his heart became a tangled mess, increasing his irritability.

Suddenly, Sikong Mo rose and left the room. However, he turned back after stepping out, looking at the room behind him for a long time before suddenly saying, “Seal this room!”

“Yes.” The guard nearby immediately responded, though he was very confused.

Lately, the Prince frequently visited every now and then, sat in the room drinking a cup of tea for a long time, then left without a word.

But this time, he had ordered the room to be sealed?

The thoughts of those above were truly beyond their grasp as mere small fries.

But if the Prince said to seal it, then it must be sealed.

There was no hesitation in this matter.

Back at the military camp, just as Sikong Mo had sat down, Si Rong and several others came in, reporting, “Master, we’ve just received intelligence. The provisions from Nanchang have been prepared and are on their way to the frontier border. It will take at most another half a month, and Nanchang will likely declare war on us soon.”

Since the last time they burned Nanchang’s provisions for 200,000 soldiers, Nanchang’s army had retreated fifty meters to wait for new provisions urgently.

During this time, Sikong Mo had used every means possible to interfere with Nanchang’s provision collection, but had only managed to delay them by a month and a half.

This was something he had anticipated.

Without looking up, Sikong Mo asked, “Have we received any news about our provisions?”

“Not yet. According to the secret messages from the capital city, the Ministry of Revenue hasn’t disbursed the provisions at all.” Mentioning this, even the usually calm Si Rong couldn’t help but be angry.

In theory, they should have taken advantage of the fact that Nanchang’s 200,000 strong army was without provisions and launched a surprise attack to penetrate Nanchang.
