The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

the other side.

Shen Qing got into an argument with several military officers on the way.

"I already said it's better to take the main road, why are you all arguing about this? We need to hurry and get going." Shen Qing clenched her fists tightly, she was so angry she was about to explode.

Their ideas are completely different now, and he doesn't know what to do.

If Xu Tian were here, this definitely wouldn't have happened. A few words from Xu Tian would probably have left them speechless.

He wanted to continue speaking, but was interrupted by a military officer, who said, "Do you know how dangerous it is to travel on the main road? I think it's better for us to travel by water. If you don't want to, then we might as well not go at all."

With his lead, the other senses also began to seriously analyze the benefits of the waterway.

Completely unwilling to listen to them, Shen Qing was now feeling even more irritated. Did they even know how much time it would take to travel by water?

Xu Tian had been waiting for them; they had to get back quickly.

"You're all military officers, yet you're afraid of those dangers? Isn't that laughable?" Unable to hold back any longer, Shen Qing angrily cursed.

Caution is certainly good, but being overly cautious is actually bad.

“We never said we were afraid. We just thought it was better to be careful. You don’t want us to be wiped out before we even get back.”

They still believe their ideas are absolutely correct, and they immediately confront Shen Qing.

While Shen Qing was thinking, he heard his voice, "If you don't want to agree, then we might as well stay here. Anyway, we're not in a hurry. If you want to waste time, then go ahead and waste it."

The words were a bit too much, and Shen Qing was so angry that she almost wanted to take action.

But for some reasons, Shen Qing ultimately chose to give up.

“You are all too old-fashioned. You might as well think carefully about what I just said.” Shen Qing’s expression changed slightly.

All he wanted to do now was to see Xu Tian as soon as possible, tell him everything, and let Xu Tian make the final decision.

“These places are far too dangerous. If we really head towards the main road, we’ll definitely run into bandits, and then we’ll lose everything,” the military officer sitting in the middle explained somewhat irritably.

He was indeed not afraid of bandits, but their numbers were still somewhat small. If there were too many bandits, they simply couldn't compete.

If he's truly afraid of bandits, then he doesn't deserve to be a military officer.

"You may be afraid, but I'm not. I think I can defeat them all by myself," Shen Qing said, revealing his true feelings.

If Xu Tian heard what they said, he would definitely laugh at them without hesitation.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qing quickly added, "The waterways are much more dangerous than the roads. If we're not careful, we could all be wiped out."

"Then you go by the main road, and the rest of us will go by the waterway." Sensing that they might really be unable to resolve the matter peacefully, one of the military officers made this suggestion directly.

Although Shen Qingzhen really wanted to leave, he reluctantly gave up, knowing that he had to bring all the military officers to Xu Tian's presence.

After arguing for a while, they quickly went their separate ways without saying a word.

Lowering her head slightly, Shen Qing was now even more agitated. From the moment they started until now, they had been locked in a stalemate.
