Yang Chuxia thought for a moment and asked, "Do any of you know if there are secret routes from Great Zhou to Great Qi?"
"Uh..." This question stumped everyone. Being ladies of the harem, who would know about such things?
"I wonder why Madam Ye is asking about this?" Madam Song, after her initial shock, couldn't help but question.
"Although Great Qi has withdrawn their troops for now, there are reports that the internal chaos in Great Qi has calmed. Once internal strife ends, they'll have the leisure to think of other matters. If Great Qi's army makes a comeback, it could be a disaster. And if there's a secret route on our border with Great Qi that we're unaware of, when the time comes and Great Qi's army advances, the ones to suffer will be the people of Great Zhou."
