Chapter 89

"Why did the princess say that?" Feng Mo smiled easily when he heard the speech. "These people just wanted to make a bargain. They came so fast, but they expected that the king would not dare to turn against the king. But they were wrong this time. They thought that they pinched my braid when I asked for reinforcements from your cloud country. Unexpectedly, the king had his own idea."

Hearing what he said, Yun Xueyao was confused in her eyes. Originally, he did that to help him out. If this situation could not be solved, she would write to the emperor. The purpose of coming to the South was to send a meeting gift to his majesty Feng. As a thank-you for escorting her back to her hometown last time, what Feng Mo means now is that he has other ways.

"Your Highness... Have you figured out a way?"

The other party nodded with a smile.

……

"What are you talking about? People from Jiangling County have even reached the south? How can it be that Jiangling is at least 400 miles away from the south." the prince was surprised when he looked at his staff in front of him.

"Yes, it seems that we still underestimate Yiwang." the staff in front of us nodded.

"Now the army of the cloud Kingdom has arrived in Nanjing. With the people in Jiangling, it's really lively?"

The prince thought and suddenly smiled.

"Moreover, the Cao min recently found out that the emperor has received the secret passbook presented by his highness King Xiang and is very angry. If the Cao min guesses well, this letter should be related to general Jinling!" the staff must have received it.

"It has something to do with him. Do you mean to say that he has already done this? It's like the emperor playing it secretly, but the emperor is very afraid of general Jinling. In this way, although he takes risks, he gets rid of the hostage of King Yi. It's a good way."

The prince also took a breath when he heard this. He didn't expect that this stranger had such a good idea.

"But although he played a secret song, the Emperor didn't summon King Yi. It can be seen that he still gave the king Yi some thin noodles. Maybe he gave him a warning and squeezed the braid in his hand. If King Yi doesn't know how to advance or retreat again, don't blame him for being unfriendly. If the king Yi is smart, he should stop now!"

The staff got the news from the palace and speculated.

"You and I don't know who Yi Wang is. He's not the one who will stop easily. What's more, if Feng Mo goes to the south this time, if the overall situation there is stabilized, I'm afraid the next step is to inquire about the famine. It's also very dangerous for him. Now he has been forced to the corner of the wall, and he doesn't dare to take the risk." the prince shook his head and sighed.

"He will definitely make a choice about which is more important or less. Let's look at the situation." the staff obviously agreed with the master's analysis, thought about it and suggested cautiously.

"Wang Yi has always been impulsive and irritable, conceited and in a deep mood. How does the palace think that he doesn't have this ability at all? However, who else can have this ability in the Manchu Dynasty?"

The prince thought about it carefully again, and felt more and more uneasy.

"Although King Yi was impulsive, there were many thoughtful confidants around him. For example, the Duke of Qi was the best among them, and he had a son killing hatred with King Xiang..." he didn't talk, thought about it and shook his head.

"I hope it's what you expected. The Duke of Qi should also step up his monitoring. We must get to the bottom of this matter." the prince didn't understand for a moment, so he waved to him.

……

"Princess, the people of Jiangling County have retreated!" the cloud view looked at the yunxueyao sitting under the Begonia tree in the yard and said with joy.

"I really left so soon. This letter is really good." Yun Xueyao sniffed at Yan, took a sip of the tea on the table, and said in a good mood, "how are you doing with other things?"

"Princess, what we expected is good. These people from Jiangling County have indeed come to the south. However, it is strange that what we saw this time is that these people are divided into two groups. The first group seems to be few, and there is little movement. They sneak in secretly. As for their purpose, we don't know yet. The second group is almost at the same time as Fang and the general "Arrived." Yun nodded and announced.

This is really strange. Many people have come to Jiangling this time. Why do you have to dial it in two? What do you mean? What mission did the first wave of people come here to perform? We found some clues, so we sent someone back to invite the second group to preside over the overall situation.

Only in this way, there must be a reason. After all, Jiangling County is more than 400 miles away from the south. Even if these local officials ask for reinforcements, they won't be so close and far away.

"There must be a reason for these people to come here. Think about it again. When they negotiated with King Xiang, what did they say about the later group of people?"

"This subordinate inquired about the country. They said that a small group of scholars in Jiangling army defected. They tracked down here all the way. Later, they found the crisis of Nanjing City, so they solved the siege of Nanjing by the way, and they really mentioned the heads of several bandit leaders." Yunjing thought.

Yunxueyao frowned quickly when she heard the news. The reason they gave was that they found someone fleeing here, but now the army of the state of cloud has just arrived in the south. It's a real coincidence, but there's no real coincidence in the world. If it's artificial, what's the real purpose of Jiangling.

"Since they came here for this purpose and did a good job in killing thieves, it's reasonable that they won't leave easily. Why were they sent away by King Xiang so soon?"

The other party seemed to have thought of this. As soon as yunxueyao's voice fell, he said, "they had to leave. My subordinates thought it was because of the imperial edict in the hands of his highness King Xiang."

"What you said is also reasonable. After all, they came just on the way. Even if the reason they gave was to track the rebels, after all, there was no justification for the imperial edict in his Highness's hands." after listening to Yunjing's words, Yun Xueyao nodded convincingly, "it's just that these people came in two groups. I always think something's wrong with this reason."

"Since the princess has this suspicion, my men will send someone to check it. As long as these things are done artificially, they will leave traces."

When Yunjing heard the master's words, he got up and prepared to leave.

As soon as I got to the door, Feng Mo came this way.

Yun Xueyao straightened her wrinkled sleeves and was about to get up.

Feng Mo came over quickly and stretched out his hand to press her shoulder: "I can smell your tea outside. Can I ask for two?"

"Your Highness is joking. What good tea can you have in the South now? I think your highness is in a good mood today." Yun Xueyao raised her eyes and looked at each other, reaching out to pour him a cup of tea.

The other party reached out to catch it, took a sip, smiled and said, "you're well-informed."

"Now I stay in the yard every day. I can't help with things outside. I can't do nothing. These Jiangling troops retreat now. It seems that your Highness has successfully taken the first step in his journey to the south. Xueyao congratulations!"

The other party smelled the speech and said with a proud smile, "it's Xueyao. You're too worried. I've already said that Jiangling people are just clowns."

"Jiangling is not enough to fear, but the king behind them should not be underestimated. Your highness must not underestimate the enemy."

Seeing that Yun Xueyao seemed to have something to say, Feng Mo turned his eyes to her face: "did you get any news?"

"Your Highness, Jiangling is 400 miles away from the south, but it came so quickly. Their so-called reason for chasing the rebels is untenable. Now it's easy to erase all the credit for suppressing the bandits. Don't you think it's strange, your highness?"

Feng Mo nodded as he reached out and poured himself a cup of tea: "I have sent spies to check according to their route. They are divided into two groups. The main purpose of the first wave of people seems to be to assassinate, but we don't know who they killed this time, but I guess most of them when thinking about what happened in the south these days."
