Dongli spurred his horse on relentlessly for five days and nights, finally arriving at the Ninglu Provincial Prefecture. After handing over the Jade Pendant and the letter to the Provincial Governor Wu, Governor Wu immediately called his staff to discuss whether to lend the grain.
Dongli and the members of the Guard Squad rested for one night, and the next day, Provincial Governor Wu informed them that he had agreed to lend the grain.
Dongli immediately sent the news back to the Ganzhou Guard via a falcon.
On receiving the message, Daohua breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she was seventy to eighty percent sure that Provincial Governor Wu would lend the grain, there is always an element of uncertainty, and she had not been without anxiety these past few days.
After counting the remaining grain to ensure it would last until Dongli and the others brought back more, Daohua went about her preparations for the New Year with peace of mind.
