Chapter 1915: Going to Liuhe Fort Chapter 1915: Going to Liuhe Fort Editor: Henyee Translations Shao Yunduan found himself swayed when Qiao Xuan appeared in her light riding outfit, a realization dawning upon him.
From then on, he knew that resisting his wife’s requests would be futile.
Ultimately, he resolved to indulge her desires, though not without attempting to negotiate for better terms.
After all, bargaining often yielded unexpected benefits.
In the end, everyone was content, and Shao Yunduan found joy in his wife’s happiness.
As for Anan, despite his lively demeanor, he was still too young to acpany them on their mountain excursion.
Qiao Xuan entrusted the care of their son to the nanny, Caiyun, and Caiming before departing the city with Shao Yunduan and their panions.
Disguised and traveling by carriage until they reached impassable terrain, the group was prepared to proceed on foot when necessary.
They were en route to Liuhe Fort, situated a considerable distance from Anze Prefecture City.
Setting off at dawn, they traveled swiftly in light carriages, covering the distance in a mere four hours.
Disembarking from the carriages, they proceeded on foot for over half an hour, arriving at Liuhe Fort around noon.
Of the three strongholds, Liuhe Fort was the closest to Anze Prefecture City, with the other two being more remote.
Upon their arrival, the fort bustled with various demolition activities.
Spotting Lord Shao, the workers paused their tasks to greet him, only to be encouraged by Shao Yunduan to continue their efforts.
Qiao Xuan, brimming with curiosity, felt invigorated rather than fatigued.
She accepted the water offered by Shao Yunduan and, tugging at his sleeve, suggested, “Husband, let’s explore together.
This place seems vast and flat!” Shao Yunduan, unable to resist his wife’s enthusiasm, smiled helplessly.
“Since you’re so keen, let’s take a stroll!” Over the years, Liuhe Fort had expanded significantly, occupying extensive flat terrain.
Recognizing the impracticality of relying solely on mountain foraged resources, the bandits had cultivated vegetable gardens.
A valley lay at the foot of the front mountain, while a wide stream ran behind it.
In the distance, a picturesque white waterfall caught their gaze.
Gazing into the distance, Qiao Xuan marveled at the lush green mountains and winding rivers, captivated by the picturesque scenery.
What intrigued her most was the mountainous terrain, characterized by steep peaks and vast valleys at their feet—an ideal landscape for expansion.
Despite the current inconvenience of transportation, Qiao Xuan saw potential in repairing the roads.
While the mountain paths were challenging to traverse, the proximity to the nearby village suggested that with improved infrastructure, travel time could be significantly reduced.
Inspired by her surroundings, Qiao Xuan activated her superpower, surveying the area with satisfaction.
Aware that their time was limited, they departed after a brief half-hour stay, returning to the village and boarding the waiting carriage back to the city.
As they journeyed home, Shao Yunduan embraced Qiao Xuan, planting a kiss on her cheek and inquiring, “Are you tired?” Qiao Xuan shook her head, a smile gracing her lips.
“The scenery is splendid, I truly enjoy being here.” Shao Yunduan chuckled.
“Now that things have settled down, how about we go hunting in the mountains together?”
