After resting for a night at the post station, Daohua and her party continued their journey toward the Gan State Guard.
The clan member sent by Wang Qi to gather information hurried back to the clan's temporary dwellings in the mountains after the caravan departed.
"Sir," he reported, "I've found out that those people are the family of the newly appointed Governor of the Gan State Guard."
Wang Qi frowned, "Gan State Guard?" The Jinwei Guard was adjacent to the Gan State Guard, and he knew a bit about it.
Xiliang was divided into nine guards, and the Gan State Guard was located on the westernmost side, with the largest defense area among the guards.
Last August during the autumn harvest, the Commander of the Gan State Guard was shot by a cold arrow by Xiliao people while inspecting the defense area. He passed away because he didn't receive timely and effective medical treatment.
