Aside from Fan Erhei, Qian Yixiu hoped everyone would return safely, including the annoying Li Shuanzi. Although Li Shuanzi was unpleasant, he didn't deserve death. But Fan Erhei, his hands were stained with a life taken, and she hoped that Heaven would claim him.
She overheard several men declaring loudly that Ji'an Province was assembling twenty thousand soldiers to head north, with over ten thousand already departed. These several thousand new recruits would train outside Xizhou Mansion for half a month before heading north, led by a General named Huo.
Qian Yixiu then thought of the young General Xiaohuo who had come to her home for a hunt and wondered if the General training the recruits might be his father.
