Jiang Youzhi's brows furrowed.
Lin Shuo continued, "I only brought four guards."
"I think that while we shouldn't always assume the worst, if that scoundrel does go insane and tries to abduct someone halfway, we're just too few to handle it."
Jiang Youzhi quickly thought it over, "Wait, when Mr. Zhao and his people depart, we'll leave with them."
"It's always better to have more people."
"Also, I'll ask Grandmother for a few more guards."
Lin Shuo nodded, "That would be more appropriate."
Jiang Youzhi got up to find the Princess, first bidding farewell to her, then softly laughing, "Grandmother, I'm heading out today with too few guards. Would you be willing to lend me a few?"
The Princess's expression tightened, "Why, did you hear any rumors of someone planning to attack you on the way?"
Jiang Youzhi shook his head, "No, but just to be cautious."
The Princess nodded, "Alright, take twenty of my guards."
Jiang Youzhi then sent the maid to the screen to call Yun Jiao.
