"Isn't Pei Jing supposed to be at the frontline helping with the dispatch and transport of grain and grass? How come he's back at the Academic Palace so soon?" Li Ang casually inquired.
"It's not really that soon; it's been almost two months," Yang Yu explained. "Moreover, the train tracks have now been laid all the way to the frontline, transporting large amounts of grain and grass, personnel, equipment, armor, and horses every day. And there's no need to worry about losses on the road. The logistics work for transport is much easier than before. That's why Pei Jing came back first. As for Li Wei, he still needs to stay at the frontline with Xue Siye."
Li Wei is a Body Refining Student; he follows Xue Che to protect the leaders and officials of the State Mansion from potential enemy assassins. He won't be able to return for a while.
