Lu Jinan immediately dispatched messengers to inform local government offices in Jiangnan to protect Ryan, and then called in warships, took the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue with him, and personally chased after the grain ships heading to Jiangnan.
It takes one or two months to reach Jiangnan by water.
Ten days after Ryan set out, Lu Jinan thought he could catch up with him, but after interrogating him, he found out that the assassin hired by the Minister of Revenue was lying in ambush at Qixing Gate, not Jiangnan.
Qixingmen is the transfer point to Jiangnan, which can be reached in more than 20 days by water.
If the boat was going faster, Ryan might have stepped into the assassin's ambush by now, and there would be no time to intercept him!
