Wei Jie and his group did indeed bypass Quzhou County, heading straight to Zhongshan County without pausing.
However, the atmosphere within the team grew much heavier, completely different from the previous lightheartedness.
The group quickened their pace, traveling day and night, and arrived at Zhongshan County by the evening of the third day.
Zhao Xin and Wei Jie first went to see Liu Kun's cousin, Liu Xi.
Liu Xi is Liu Kun's spokesperson in Jizhou. They are all natives of Zhongshan County. The Liu Family has many village elders here, and Liu Kun is a renowned scholar. In recent years, due to him steadfastly defending Jinyang and sheltering refugees, his reputation in the Jizhou and Bingzhou regions has grown even larger.
Zhongshan County regards Liu Kun with pride.
