"Well, every family has a difficult sutra. Although my sister is not from the imperial capital, she has lived in the imperial capital for several generations. Her ancestors have made a living by doing business. Now the Taiping Army controls Longdong, and the Western countries in the west are said to have conflicts with the northwest and northern Luzon. My father thinks that this business road is no longer safe. He thinks that the situation is too great. If the risk is too great, my father wants to change to the business road in the south, or transport it into the sea by water, and transport the goods to the west by ship. This is what my brother should have come here, but my brother accidentally fell off his leg before he set off, so my sister had to take on the burden." After living in the imperial capital for several years, he has learned a lot of ups and downs. He has already made Sophia a good mouth that cheats people to death without paying for their lives. When making up stories, he makes one set after another.

Both sides tried to find some loopholes or flaws from each other's words, hoping to see the other's origin. After all, it was a coincidence. For the same itinerary, there were three people in the same group, one master, one maid and one servant, and the most important thing was that both masters discovered that there were many unusual sides hidden behind each other.

"Oh? It seems that my sister and younger sister are the same. They come here to replace their father and brother." The girl in snow smiled faintly. Perhaps she also discovered that the other party was actually unwilling to expose her purpose, and they all made up the reasons so fully and so seamlessly.

"Well, we are both people who are in the world. Girl, don't you?" Sophia also smiled.

It was obvious that they could not find any whisper from the other party's mouth, and the two girls had the same customs and customs of their hometowns as topics, hoping to find something from each other's words. However, the girl in snow was certainly free of water, and Sophia had lived in the imperial capital for a long time and was always influenced by Situ Yushuang's mansion. She was already familiar with the customs and customs of the imperial capital, and was also eloquent. While both sides admired each other's eloquence, they became more curious about each other's identity.

It was not until the lamps fell off and the night was dark, and the two girls talked quite well. It was not until the two girls' maid reminded that it was too late that the two girls ended their first meeting reluctantly. They returned to their rooms to fall asleep with the intention of guessing the other party's identity. However, when it comes to the itinerary, the two girls both invited each other to walk together. Anyway, the long journey from Queqiao Pass to Qingyang is a must-pass for the two girls. Fortunately, they are already in the northwest jurisdiction along the way, and the public security situation has always been good, so there is no need to worry about any accidents.

After leaving the west gate of Queqiao Pass, we embarked on the road to the northwest. After the Northwest Army captured Queqiao Pass, given the importance of the road from Bonan Yangmakou to Queqiao Pass, the northwest quickly placed the renovation and widening of this road first. It took only three months to double the road from Yangmakou to Queqiao Pass. The road after leveling was very good, enough to accommodate two large carriages in parallel and still very loose.

The carriage was galloping lightly on the wide avenue, gusts of wind roaring. The wind chimes hanging on the head of the carriage were imported from the Western Continent. The shape was quite elegant and beautiful. As the wind swayed in the wind, it emitted a series of tiny and pleasant ringtones, which sounded refreshing.

"Sister, do you see if the scenery in the northwest is a little different from that in the Central Plains of the Empire?" The girl in snow-clothed in the snow lifted up the curtains of the carriage while pointing to the village houses that were already busy in the fields.

"Well, the northwest is vast and sparsely populated, but this area seems to be very peaceful, and I can't see any difference from other places." Sophia's eyes were also set on the scenery outside the window. The land of early spring still could not get rid of some chills, but the hard-working farmers could no longer wait and started to work hard, making various preparations for the harvest of the next season.

"Well, it is said that this area has been taken over by Li Wufeng, the military and political governor of the Northwest of the Empire and the Governor of the Northern Luzon. Now it starts from Queqiao Pass in the east and reaches the west of Zijing Pass in the west. It stretches for more than two thousand miles in a row, and is the territory of our imperial hero." The girl in snow-clothed voice was very plain and she could not hear any tendency.

"Hey, I'm very familiar with the situation in Luzon. Even the Bauhinia Pass in Northern Luzon?" Sophia asked in confusion.

"Uh, um," the girl in snow was shocked. She didn't expect that the other party's sense of touch was so sharp. She was not careful and a flaw appeared on her mouth. She noticed it by the other party. "Oh, although my sister doesn't go out much at home, there are many relatives at home who make a living by doing business. They often go to and from the Indian and De'an in Northern Luzon and even further west, so my sister has heard of the customs and cultures there."

"Oh, it seems that the girl is also interested. She knows the geographical situation thousands of miles away." Sophia didn't say anything more, but just took it over casually, but it made the girl in snow-clothed secretly alert.

"Sister laughed, but she seemed to be familiar with the situation in the west of the empire." The girl in snow used the opportunity of combing and showing off her, while fighting back quietly.

"That's true. My sister has been fond of travel since she was a child. When she was young, she spent two years swimming in the South Ocean Alliance, Milan, Mahad, and the southern countries of Andaco, the empire's Jiangnan, the East China Sea, the Five Lakes, and the Heshuo counties. Although I have not taken it to the west, my sister is very fond of this aspect, so I usually like to collect this aspect, so I can be considered familiar with it." Sophia answered proudly.

What she said was not a lie. She has been interested in traveling since she was a child and has already visited the scenic spots in the East Mainland. What she owed was to travel to the west. However, before she could get her wish, the disaster of the destruction of the country had come to her. As soon as she said, she evoked a trace of her memories of her past travel life, and she also remembered that she had become a part of the Machikhanate. A gloomy mood slowly arose in her heart.

The girl in snow also keenly noticed the other person's emotions, first proud and then depressed, but of course she could not understand why the other person's emotions changed so much.

"Oh, it seems that my sister is really traveling thousands of miles and reading thousands of books." The girl in snow agreed with a smile, "But the situation in the western part of the empire is not very stable now. If my sister wants to take this opportunity to travel, she really has to plan her itinerary to avoid any accidents."

"Well, I didn't plan to travel at first, but I think even the Longdong occupied by Taiping County did not look chaotic, as if it was governed quite like a thing. The girl came from Jiangchuan and should have passed Hanzhong and Xikang. These two places are also areas controlled by the Taiping Army. Is the situation the same?" Sophia's eyes were flowing, but she was silent on the surface. She could already feel that the companion on the opposite side was definitely not an ordinary person, nor was it the lady of the famous family she mentioned. Although the other party's identity is still unsure, after this conversation and observation, she can be sure that the other party's identity will definitely not be the daughter of a wealthy family. This is an intuition. Although there is no definite basis, Sophia has always believed in her intuition.

"Well, it should be said that it is quite good. At least it has not encountered many troubles. Everything seems to be similar to the original imperial rule. Before leaving, the girl had heard of the relatives who had taken these two places. It seemed that the evaluation was very good, so she dared to join in. The situation was indeed as they said." The girl in snow also quietly observed the other party's expression. Until now, she still couldn't hear the purpose of the other party's asking these words. Although she usually had less contact with outsiders, she could also feel the extraordinary demeanor after the light veil mask. The innate noble temperament was not cultivated by ordinary merchants. There was a bit of the smell of an emperor. The girl in snow suddenly felt this feeling in her heart, and even she herself felt it a bit ridiculous.

"Well, even the territory under the Taiping Sect, which is feared by the great officials and nobles in the capital, is like this. I believe that the territory under the jurisdiction of Li Wufeng, who is known as the King of Northwest, should be better. From Queqiao Pass, you can see that this Lord Li seems very unusual." The topic was slowly surrounded by the veritable local emperor in Northwest, and a look of expectation flashed in Sophia's eyes.

"Well, maybe, but I heard that Lord Li seems to be having a very unhappy relationship with the Western Regions. I heard that he was fighting a war some time ago. I don't know if this is true?" It was not until the words came out that the girl in snow discovered that she had unconsciously exposed her visibility. This seemed to be a bit inconsistent with her identity as a lady from a family who never left home. She quickly covered up her with a question and quietly glanced at the other party to see her reaction.

He glanced at the other party, and Sophia smiled in her heart, but she pretended to be unnoticed on the surface, "Well, it seems that she is fighting, but it seems that she is not in the northwest, but in the Northern Luzon, right? Lord Li seems to be the governor of Northern Luzon. Naturally, the relationship between the countries in the Western Regions and the Northwest has become tense. I don't know what the situation is now? But looking at the situation in front of me, I don't seem to see any too tense atmosphere."

"Well, maybe this place is still far from the western border, and it is also in a deserted village, so the people can't feel it. You may know something when you arrive in Bonan." The girl in snow was also a little surprised by the other party's information. Even if it was a business family, it might not be clear about the war in a specific place, but the other party could accurately say that it happened in Northern Luzon rather than in the northwest. This is a bit doubtful, but the girl in snow didn't say anything else.
