Chapter 282: Sowing Dissension

Yin Ye was confused: "What on earth do these people from Southern Xinjiang want to do?"

Ji Yunshu tapped his fingers lightly on the table and laughed, "It's really interesting. These people all have their own agendas. I wonder if they've communicated with each other?"

Bai Ling asked, "Do you know what they are going to do?"

Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Isn't it obvious? The Hongtu tribe was instigated by Lin Huixue to restore their country, and Kesang wanted to marry his beloved, the Saint Ning Huanyi. But someone sent Ning Huanyi to the palace. Who do you think was behind this?"

Bai Ling's mind was in a mess. She didn't even understand how Ji Yunshu guessed that Kesan's sweetheart was Ning Huanyi.

"Lin Huixue?"

Although no one knows why, only the Prince Yong's Mansion behind Lin Huixue has the ability to send people into the palace without leaving any trace.

She remembered that Concubine Yi was just a palace maid, and she still didn't understand how she had a relationship with the emperor.

Ji Yunshu laughed and said, "It's most likely Lin Huixue's doing, but he has no reason to do that. Kesan's brain isn't very flexible, and he tends to be stubborn. Offending Kesan won't help him control the Hongtu tribe."

"It's also possible that Ksan didn't know about this. Didn't you say that he didn't know the Saint had entered the palace before?"

Ji Yunshu sighed, "That makes sense, but I suspect Lin Huixue is doing this for the greater good. If the Miao people want to restore their nation, relying solely on the Hongtu tribe is not enough."

Yin Ye didn't know how Ji Yunshu came up with this idea: "So who else is planning a rebellion with the Hongtu tribe?"

Ji Yunshu pretended to be profound and said, "I'm just guessing. Let's wait and see."

Yin Ye: "How long do we have to wait? Are we really going to let them keep us under house arrest?"

Ji Yunshu said, "It won't be long before the prince comes to Southern Xinjiang. They will be even more anxious than us."

It is impossible for Zhao Shen to remain silent, and once Zhao Shen takes action, these people will have no time.

"Speaking of which, the prince must have received the news of your departure from the capital a long time ago, but he is not worried at all."

Silverleaf complained.

Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "How do you know he's not worried? Who knows, maybe we'll meet soon."

Lin Huixue wanted to kill her out of fear, but what was the point of Yu Xi's tribe keeping her?

Ji Yunshu guessed that Zhao Shen, who was hiding in the dark, was lured out.

So even though he knew that she was being hunted by the Hongtu tribe, the clan leader still kept her.

After all, Zhao Shen still has the ring they want.

Ji Yunshu could sense that the ring held extraordinary significance to the Miao people.

After dinner, Ji Yunshu went to chat with the clan leader.

It is impossible for her to stay in the house all the time. If she is locked up all the time, then what is the point of her coming here?

The patriarch looked surprised, but still asked gently, "Madam, is there anything I can help you with?"

Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "I heard from Miss Qiyun that I've troubled the clan leader by coming here. I'm really embarrassed. You helped me, you could even say you saved my life, so I wanted to come and thank you."

Zhebie said, "Madam, you are too polite. Qiyun offended you in the capital, but not only did you not take it seriously, you even helped her. Now it is my duty to help you. Although we Miao people don't understand loyalty, justice, reason, and faith, we also know how to be grateful."

Ji Yunshu shook his head and said, "That's different. I helped her at the time because I thought she was a good girl. It was just a matter of convenience. The clan leader helped me hide my whereabouts, but he took a risk."

Zhebie said, "If it's for this reason, then there's no need for that. The conflict between our Yuxi tribe and the Hongtu tribe has been going on for a long time, and this one thing is not the only reason."

Ji Yunshu asked, "Since the relationship between the two tribes is so bad, why did you arrange a marriage? I see that the tribe leader loves Qiyun very much. Isn't he worried that she will be wronged if she marries into the Hongtu tribe?"

Zhebie smiled bitterly and said, "Although this marriage was decided long ago, I asked Qiyun for her opinion after she grew up, and she agreed to it herself."

Ji Yunshu's eyes moved slightly, and it was indeed similar to what she guessed.

"Is that so? I didn't expect Qiyun, who looks so carefree, to actually sacrifice her own happiness for the tribe. She really deserves to be the tribe leader's daughter."

Zhebie frowned and asked, "What do you mean by sacrificing her own happiness? She is willing to marry because she likes Kesan."

Ji Yunshu was very surprised and said, "But the young leader of the Kesang tribe has another sweetheart. Qiyun told me this. She said that she knew Kesang didn't like her, but she was willing to marry him for the cooperation between the two tribes."

Zhebie frowned even tighter. Seeing that he was absent-minded, Ji Yunshu did not bother him any further and said goodbye and went back.

She felt that a man as affectionate as Zhebie would never let Qiyun marry Kesan even though she knew that Kesan already had someone in his heart.

Sure enough, Qiyun did not tell him about this.

In other words, what happened in the capital had nothing to do with Zhebie.

This made Ji Yunshu feel somewhat relieved.

It is important to know who supports Concubine Yi.

At the moment, it seems that there is only Lin Huixue.

Back in the house, Yin Ye couldn't help but ask, "Were you just trying to sow discord between the clan leader and Qiyun and his daughter? What's the point?"

Ji Yunshu picked at the wick idly. "It has many uses. First, it confirms that Qiyun likes Kesang, so the idea of ​​sending the Saint to the palace might have been hers. Second, the clan leader, knowing this, won't agree to Qiyun marrying Kesang, and there might be a conflict between father and daughter. Third, this can also be considered as a way to alienate the Yuxi and Hongtu tribes, although it may not have any effect."

If Qiyun was able to send Ning Huanyi into the palace through Lin Huixue without her father and Kesan knowing, it means that her relationship with Lin Huixue is not as simple as she said.

And if the clan leader really disagreed with Qiyun marrying Kesan because of her words, then he might not be as weak as he appeared.

Zhebie was obviously clear about what the Hongtu tribe was planning. Unless he had decided on a day to submit to the Hongtu tribe, he would have to find a way to restrain the Hongtu tribe.

Ji Yunshu rubbed his forehead. Compared to the ambitious father and son of the Hongtu tribe, who were already known to everyone, the father and daughter of the Yuxi tribe seemed to be the ones who hid their ambitions more deeply.

Ji Yunshu slept well that night, and the next morning, Qiyun came angrily.

"What nonsense did you say to my father?"

Ji Yunshu slowly swallowed his breakfast and asked in confusion, "My uncle and I get along very well. We had a great conversation and talked a lot. What are you asking about?"

Qiyun: "Things about my marriage to Kesang."

"Oh, well, I heard that your father didn't seem to know that Kesan had someone in his heart and wanted to marry you off. I was afraid he would regret it later if he found out, so I reminded him."

Qiyun said angrily, "Who needs your reminder? I was hiding it from him. Now that he knows, he doesn't agree to my marrying him. What should I do?"

Ji Yunshu smiled and said, "Anyway, Kesang doesn't want to marry you, and you don't want to marry. Now your father also agrees that you don't want to marry. Isn't this a good thing?"
