Sorry, I was left behind

With the first piece of information, information related to Yan Bei came in succession. In just a single night, Xiao Jiu'an received three batches of information related to Yan Bei, and each one was more disadvantageous than the last.

Beichen increased her military strength and began a fierce attack on Yan Bei. The internal strife within the Yanbei Army became even more serious. Those who were Xiao Jiu'an's trusted aides and those who did not believe that Xiao Jiu'an possessed the bloodline of the Xiao Family fought to the death with each other.

That year, when Xiao Jiu'an took over the Yanbei Army and cleaned up a group of people who relied on their seniority to keep themselves honest, the rest were all people who were truly loyal to the Prince Yanbei's Mansion, and also people who dealt with matters honestly. These people were quite influential in the army, and were also one of Xiao Jiu'an's staunch supporters. Although they would not cause trouble for Xiao Jiu'an just because of a single rumor, they would still be suspicious, and would naturally not defend Xiao Jiu'an like before.

The core strength of the Yanbei Army were these old men, they maintained a neutral stance, causing the battle in the army to become even more intense. Xiao Jiu'an didn't need to go to Yanbei, she only needed to hear the news that came from the secret guard. If this continued, Yanbei Army would be destroyed by her own people without needing Beichen to do anything.

Returning to Yan Bei was something that was about to happen and he couldn't wait any longer. However, Xiao Jiu'an knew that the Emperor would definitely not allow him to return, and even knew that he would even try to stop him in private when he returned back to Yan Bei.

He could only … He quietly left.

"This King wants to make a trip back to Yanbei. I can't disturb anyone." According to their original plans, they should enter the city today, but a quarter of an hour before they left, Xiao Jiu'an said to Ji Yunkai.

Ji Yunkai was startled, and asked: "Something happened to Yan Bei?"

"Beichen sent troops to attack Yanbei, causing internal strife." Xiao Jiu'an said concisely.

"Beichen sent troops to attack Yanbei? Why is there no movement from the imperial government? " It was impossible for the imperial government to not know of such a huge matter.

"Heh …" Xiao Jiu'an sneered: "This is the conspiracy between the imperial government and Beichen."

Taking advantage of the fact that he was not in Yan Bei, he started an internal strife and lured Beichen into Revelation, using up all of his power there.

Be it the emperor or Xiao Shiqing, both knew very well that once Beichen's troops attacked Yan Bei, the main force would be his. In this battle, no matter if she won or lost, it would consume his strength.

"The emperor, he …" Ji Yunkai was so shocked that she retreated a few steps, unable to believe that she had heard it.

The emperor isn't that stupid, is he? You can even do such a thing?

"He's not as stupid as you think. Sky Martial Princess has been very quiet recently, and Nanjin Zhao has also met with the Emperor, perhaps they have reached some sort of agreement. " Initially, Xiao Jiu'an felt that the Emperor was extremely foolish, but thinking about the Sky Martial Princess and Nan Jin Zhao in the capital, Xiao Jiu'an knew that the Emperor must have some tricks up his sleeve.

Although the north of the Yan Dynasty was the territory of the Revelation, it had never been under their jurisdiction. Although the Yanbei Army was an army of the Revelation, they were also never under the jurisdiction of the imperial government. It wasn't just a matter of one or two days for the emperor to take over Yanbei. He hadn't moved since the beginning because he was afraid that if they killed him, they still wouldn't be able to control Yanbei and the Yanbei Army.

With Shiqing in the emperor's hands, even if he died, it might be able to prove that he had nothing to do with the northern Xiao Family. Those veterans and soldiers of Yan Bei would definitely support Shiqing, and in the hands of the Emperor, it was equivalent to the Emperor indirectly controlling Yan Bei and Yanbei Army.

As for his current sacrifice?

Sacrificing a little benefit in exchange for controlling Yanbei and Yanbei Army was truly worth it.

"I see." Ji Yunkai nodded, and tried her best to smile: "You can go, I will keep an eye on the matters of the capital, you do not need to worry."

She was from the Prince Yanbei's Wife, and the moment the wedding ceremony had begun, she had been tied up with Xiao Jiu'an. She might not benefit from Xiao Jiu'an's power, but if Xiao Jiu'an was unlucky, she would definitely not be able to escape.

"This King... "I'm sorry." Xiao Jiu'an didn't think that Ji Yunkai would agree without hesitation, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Ji Yunkai was a smart person, she should clearly know what being alone in the capital meant.

"That's what I should do." Ji Yunkai was still smiling, but she couldn't say what she felt in her heart.

Xiao Jiu'an clearly knew that it would be dangerous to leave her alone in the capital, but he still chose to leave her behind.

Why did she want Xiao Jiu'an to take her with him to Yanbei?

She couldn't do it. Whether it was her emotions or her rationality, she couldn't do such a thing.

Furthermore, she was very clear that no matter how noisy she was, Xiao Jiu'an would not bring her back to Yan Bei.

Xiao Jiu'an could quietly rush back to Yanbei by herself, and not disturb anyone, but it would be different if he brought her along.

"Be at ease …" Xiao Jiu'an took a step forward and patted Ji Yunkai's head, "As long as this king is not dead, you will be fine." As long as he is still alive, he still has the authority of Yan Bei, the Emperor will not dare to touch Ji Yunkai.

"I know." As long as Xiao Jiu'an did not fall, no matter where he was, she would be able to do whatever he wanted in Revelation.

"Since this duke isn't here, you don't have to endure it. Since the Revelation can't stay here any longer, let's go somewhere else." The moment Xiao Shiqing fell towards the emperor, Xiao Jiu'an knew that he would not be able to continue being his Prince Yanbei.

Xiao Shiqing had fallen so determinedly towards the emperor, so she definitely knew of something. Yan Bei's rumors made him understand that not only did Xiao Shiqing know about this, she also had proof. Sooner or later, his identity would be exposed.

If he didn't become the Prince Yanbei, he could become the Ninth Prince of Beichen. There was no one in this world who could make him submit to them …
