After an hour's wait, Sun Mo came to the guest house where Chiyou is waiting for him.
Sensing his friend entering the room, Chiyou asks "sent the letter?"
"Yes, and most probably the soldiers will be here within next two days if there is no delay in the delivery" Sun Mo told his friend.
The letter Chiyou asked his friend is about Sun Mo's order to the soldiers waiting around the Xiang Kingdom to come and take him and his friend Chiyou.
When Sun Mo told everyone in the imperial court that he has ordered all of his soldiers to return, he lied to them as there is no way that a royalty can stay or move around other kingdoms without having a few spies and guards in that place where he is staying.
