"Let's rest for a while before setting off again and go to the back to see how the princess and the others are doing." Ji Xingzhi said.

Zhang Qian: "Yes."

As soon as Zhang Qian left, Ji Xingzhi immediately asked Xiao Moyan in confusion, "Why didn't the emperor's uncle let me go?"

Xiao Moyan let go of Ji Xingzhi's hand and said, "There's still a group of people who haven't shown up yet."

When Ji Xingzhi heard this, her expression changed slightly. No! She had to inform everyone immediately!

"Bai Xiu is here." Xiao Moyan's three light words stopped Ji Xingzhi from getting out of the car.

Bai Xiu is the young master of Liuyun Forest. There are many people from Liuyun in his team. I believe Bai Xiu must have discovered the group hiding in the dark.

"Is it the Xia family that's coming?" Ji Xingzhi asked calmly.

Xiao Moyan nodded slightly: "Yes."

After receiving Xiao Moyan's confirmation, Ji Xingzhi really wanted to curse loudly, but after holding it in, she couldn't help but whispered angrily: "Damn it! What on earth do they want to do! Killing this one, then killing that one! Didn't the Xia family get killed by Liuyun's people? How come there are still some!"

Xiao Moyan didn't seem to understand Ji Xingzhi's sudden anger. He frowned slightly and said, "Only a part of those who died in Lizhou."

Ji Xingzhi choked, and with a headache, he held his forehead and said, "Uncle, I'm a little confused. I need to sort it out..."

Ji Xingzhi thought about it and realized that the story had to start from when she came back from Huazhou.

The story goes something like this: After returning from Huazhou, the impersonator, who was impersonating her, openly resided in Shaohua Palace, while the fake Xue or Qin sealed off the city walls. The real Xue or Qin was already dead, suggesting this was a premeditated plan. They discovered she and the emperor's uncle were not in Lizhou, and the fake Xue or Qin likely deliberately exposed a flaw to allow Wu Fang to capture them, luring them into a trap and severely injuring Wu Fang.

After she came back, the fake Xue Huoqin died, and the fake Ji Xingzhi also died mysteriously. Although she knew that the fake Xue Huoqin was a member of the Xia family and the fake Ji Xingzhi was someone close to Shui Lianche, they were already dead, and as the saying goes, there is no evidence after death.

I learned from Zhou Zheng that the fake Xue Huoqin and the fake Ji Xingzhi were Xia Chanyi's disguises. Luo Ling was secretly recruiting troops and seemed to be making a big move.

Then the messenger from Shuizhou came to visit, and she left Lizhou with her uncle. However, her uncle said that he saw Shui Lianche, who was supposed to be in the imperial capital of Shuizhou, and that Shui Lianche was accompanied by a master to help him.

Now it is Luo Ling's turn to seize the imperial city, and they are ambushed by assassins.

These things may seem unrelated, but when you think about it carefully, they seem to be indispensable...

Ji Xingzhi shook off all the conjectures in his mind, thought about it again, and came to the following conclusion:

Shui Lianche colluded with the Xia family and infiltrated the imperial capital of Lizhou. He struck a deal with Luo Ling, enlisting Xia Chan's help in disguising himself. The two, disguised as themselves, sealed the imperial capital of Lizhou, but otherwise remained relatively inactive. Meanwhile, Shui Lianche invited the monarchs of the four states to Shuizhou, giving Luo Ling the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on the imperial capital.

Ji Xingzhi told Xiao Moyan the conclusion she had come up with. Xiao Moyan paused slightly and nodded almost imperceptibly.

"What we need to know most now is what those two fakes did in the palace." Ji Xingzhi drooped his eyelids slightly. Shui Lianche had put in so much effort, it couldn't be just to seal off a city. There must be a bigger purpose behind it.

And...that goal may have been achieved.

The two fakes are already dead. If we want to find any clues, we have to go back to the palace except to start from Shui Lianche.

Luo Ling launched a surprise attack, and Ling Lan didn't know if he could hold on. The road to the Shuizhou Imperial Capital would definitely be full of thorns, and this Lizhou Imperial Palace... he didn't know if he could get back.

"Hold on to the edge of the car for a while." Xiao Moyan suddenly said.

Before she finished speaking, Ji Xingzhi felt the carriage seemed to move, and she subconsciously grabbed... Xiao Moyan.
