C1027 1026 Miss Xie

"Don't mind it, second brother. This matter was originally hard to investigate, but because it's in your feudal fiefdom, I want to remind you to be careful."

Yan Yuan opened his mouth and pulled back his peaceful thoughts, he then continued: "That's right, Sixth brother should be arriving at Yizhou soon, in the letter Sixth brother told me, there is an army hidden in Yizhou."

When these words came out, he was so shocked that he directly stood up from his chair, "What? Was there an army hidden in the Yizhou? "How is this possible!?"

The voice of kindness was somewhat sharp, as if it was frightened by this shocking news.

When the prince arrived at the feudal fiefdom, other than the few thousand private troops in the palace, he was not allowed to own an army. However, Yan Yuan told him now that there was an army hidden in the Yizhou.

Yan Yuan looked at his panic-stricken face and said: "Don't worry second brother, I naturally won't suspect anything if I told you about this."

Yan Xie couldn't help but laugh helplessly at his words. "Second Brother is already so old, why are you making fun of me?"

He then heard Yan Yuan say, "It's just that this army is hidden in second brother's territory, how come second brother didn't sense them at all?"

He let out a long sigh and said, "It's my fault. I was only interested in sightseeing and the feudal fiefdom. In any case, with the presence of the magistrate, I didn't think that there would be such a conspiracy in this king's feudal fiefdom."

It was only Yan Yuan who spoke to comfort him, allowing him to slowly calm down.

"By the way, do you have any leads on the army?"

After the silence, Yan Xie looked at Yan Yuan and asked with a dejected tone.

"No, since the other party has the intention to hide it, how could I easily find out after staying here for a few days?"

Yan Yuan laughed at himself, "I am still a little ashamed. I have been here for so many days, but I don't have any leads at all.

"Sigh, I am the king of one of the cities in Yizhou, I can't even detect a thing, what's more, you are far away in the capital."

Yan Xie sighed angrily once again, and heard Yan Yuan say, "I still have one more thing to say to Second Brother."

"There's more?"

His words and actions seemed to be struck by shocking news, and hearing that Yan Yuan still had things to tell him, he sat up straight.

Seeing him in such a state, Yan Yuan chuckled, "Second brother, don't be nervous."

A disgruntled snort came out of Yan Xie's mouth. He glanced at Yan Yuan who was in a nonchalant manner and said: "My territory already has an army hidden, what unimaginable things can't happen. How can I not be nervous?"

Seeing Yan Yuan looking at his with a smile, he spoke kindly and helplessly while holding his forehead. He waved her hand at Yan Yuan and said: "Fine, speak, I can endure it."

A sneer came out of Yan Yuan's mouth. He looked at Yan Xie who accepted his fate with a look of schadenfreude, and said: "Then little brother will scare you. It's just that a few days ago I discovered that this time's Yizhou flood was not a natural disaster, but a … "Human disaster."

As Yan Yuan said this, his eyes narrowed. An undetectable coldness flashed past his eyes.

"Human disaster?"

Indeed, when the King Carefree heard Yan Yuan talk about the cause of the water calamity, he was so shocked that he jumped up from the chair once again. He looked at Yan Yuan in disbelief, and the fist on the table tightened subconsciously.

Yan Yuan's gaze lightly swept across Yan Xie's face. There was still a faint smile in the corner of his eyes as he said: "Does second brother not feel that the water hazard this time is a little strange?"

He took out a piece of paper and handed it over to Yan Xie.

Yan Xie lowered his head as he received the letter. He opened it and took a closer look, then his expression slightly changed.

This was the map of the Yizhou's disaster-stricken area. It was here that Yan Yuan saw the oddity that day, but now, looking at Yan Xie's expression, he naturally saw the strangeness in it as well.

"This... This... "It actually …"

Yan Xie gritted his teeth and pointed to a certain spot on the blueprint. Then, the anger on his face gradually turned into dejection. Finally, he sighed.

"I thought that King Carefree would be controlled by so many officials from top to bottom. This king would naturally be free and unfettered. I never thought that this Yizhou would actually be handed over to a bunch of useless trash."

Even as he finished speaking, his face was still filled with unconcealable anger.

She then sighed and blamed herself, "When there was a flood, I brought your second sister and Yao'er to Jiangnan. Who would have thought that such a big thing would happen?"

"This can't be blamed on second brother. The other side has been hiding for so long, if it wasn't for 'Eternal Rest', I wouldn't have noticed it."

Yan Yuan's words seemed to contain some hidden meaning, seeing that Yan Xie's face was gloomy, as though he was still blaming himself, he stood up and said: "I was originally just here to chat with Second Brother, but now I angered Second Brother, I really shouldn't, little brother will leave now."

"How can I blame you?"

When Yan Yuan got up, he did not keep for himself, but merely stood up and patted's shoulder before sighing, "Second brother only blames himself. As the king of one of the cities in the Yizhou, he ignored the hardships of the citizens and only cared about pleasure.

"Don't worry, second brother. It's a good thing that we've found some clues, so it's not too late."

After Yan Yuan spoke a few words of consolation, he said: "Qing Er is still waiting for me in the courtyard, I'll go back first."

"Go."

Coming out of the peaceful study room, Yan Yuan's expression, which was originally calm and collected, turned slightly cold. He gazed at the door thoughtfully for a few seconds, before leaving.

"Eternal Rest …"

After Yan Yuan left, Yan Xie sat back down on the chair and muttered the word. His expression was unclear, and there were a few traces of annoyance.

Liu Ruo Qing was bored as she waited for Yan Yuan to return from the courtyard. Thinking about the dangers of Yizhou City, her eyebrows knitted together slightly. Right at this moment, a cautious voice sounded from the courtyard entrance, "Crown Princess Jing."

Liu Ruo Qing looked towards the direction of the voice and saw a seventeen or eighteen year old girl standing at the entrance of the courtyard. In her hand was a tray, and her eyes looked at nervously.

Liu Ruo Qing naturally recognized her. That night, at the welcoming banquet the King Carefree gave them, she had seen her before, and she seemed to be the younger sister of the Crown Princess. She would occasionally visit the King Carefree Palace as a guest.

Liu Ruo Qing didn't know why she had come to find him, especially since she was holding something in her hand.

Although he felt it was strange, Liu Ruo Qing was still extremely friendly on the surface, "So it's Lady Xie, Lady Xie, please come in."

A look of joy appeared on Mrs. Xie's face, but she did not hold back. She walked into the yard and subconsciously looked around, as if she was looking at someone.

Liu Ruo Qing noticed, but her face did not change at all. She looked at the two bowls of sweets on the tray and smiled, then said: Thank you Miss, why are you looking for me?
