"I dare not."

Upon hearing this, the person who spoke quickly bowed and said "I dare not".

"If you don't dare, shut up!"

Zhao Dang snorted again, "You Confucian scholars don't know anything else, but you can only stare at me and find fault with me. My father ordered you here to assist me, not to find fault with me!"

Including the person who spoke, the civil servants present did not dare to speak.

Zhao Dang sighed again and said, "Since you want to talk about it, then tell me, what should we do now?

My plan was originally very good, but because of your incompetence, not only did we fail to find the treasure of Emperor Yu, but we also let the old ghost father and son from Hangjiabao escape.

We only killed a bunch of useless natives and captured this little girl. What do you think we should do now?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Although they all disagreed in their hearts, they could only accept it with a pinch of their noses, "Your Highness is right, it is indeed our fault for not doing our job well.

But this may not be a bad thing.”

"Good news?"

Zhao Dang frowned when he heard this.

"yes."

The man hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please think about it. As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor.

Judging from the situation before, those natives were extremely cunning and must not have brought anything with them.

If we had really captured that old man and his son at that time, that would have been great, but it would also be troublesome. Once those natives were leaderless, we wouldn't know who to ask for the thing.

Now, hehe...we have captured this little girl, so why not send a letter to the Hang Family Castle and ask them to exchange something..."

"Tsk, after all this talk, isn't it just about taking the little girl to trade those natives for the treasure of Emperor Yu? Why are you talking so much?"

Zhao Dang finally understood, but glared at the man impatiently.

"Hey, yes..."

No one dared to say anything and could only smile.

Zhao Dang couldn't help but frown and said, "But, for just this one girl, will the natives be willing to exchange her?"

"This girl is the granddaughter of the castle lord after all. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. Although the natives may be ignorant and stubborn, they still have some human feelings."

In fact, no one was sure at all whether the natives would exchange Emperor Yu's treasure for such a little girl.

But in this situation, what else can they do?

The natives had fled, and with so few people they didn't dare to go into the Great Wilderness Mountain, so they could only use this idea to appease Zhao Dang.

Zhao Dang frowned and thought about it, but then he lost his patience and said impatiently: "Then let's do it this way."

Then he asked everyone, "Who among you will take the letter to the native?"

After this question, everyone fell silent.

Whoever delivers the letter might end up dying.

The natives are not good people. They are easy to deal with under normal circumstances, but now you have just attacked them, killed so many of them, and even threatened them with their granddaughter. Do you really think they have no temper?

If you go there, you might not be delivering a letter, but sending yourself to death.

Seeing that no one said anything, Zhao Dang couldn't help but get furious again. "You useless people, what's the point of my father raising you? You're all talkative, but when I ask you to do something, you all pretend to be dead!"

Everyone lowered their heads and remained silent no matter how he scolded them.

Zhao Dang gnashed his teeth in anger, then glanced around and spotted the person who had come up with the idea before and said, "It's you. You came up with this idea, so go!"

"What, this... Your Highness..."

When the man heard this, he almost fainted on the spot. How could this be possible? No one else offered any ideas, but I at least came up with one. Even though it might be a bad idea, a bad idea is still an idea.

In the end, there was no benefit at all, and I was asked to go even if it meant dying. This is not fair!

Zhao Dang ignored him and waved his hand impatiently, "What are you talking about, His Highness? Stop talking nonsense and get it done!"

The man wanted to cry but had no tears.

The others couldn't help but laugh secretly, but they were also speechless in their hearts.

The prince actually sent this person to replace His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Is this really the right decision?

But naturally no one would say this, and Zhao Dang didn't care what these people thought.

After that, he didn't pay any more attention to it. He raised his hand lazily and pointed at Yin Guannan and said, "Then stay here, little boy. I have something to ask you. Everyone else, please leave!

Oh, by the way, keep an eye on this girl. Don’t let anything happen to her. I’m counting on her to exchange for my treasure.”

After saying that, he waved his hand like shooing away flies, and drove everyone out of the tent.

Even the native girl was taken away.

Only Yin Guannan was left in the tent in a panic. He looked left and right, and seeing that everyone had left, he wanted to follow them out, but was stopped by the guard with a mocking look on his face.

"Where are you going, little brat? His Highness wants to ask you a question, don't you hear me?"

"I, I'm just a passerby, Your Highness. I really don't know anything."

Yin Guannan was about to cry, but the guards just chuckled and pushed him back.

Zhao Dang just watched with a smile until Yin Guannan was pushed back, then he looked him up and down jokingly and waved his hand to let the guards go out quickly.

The guards naturally knew what His Highness meant, so they dared not stay here and get in the way. They all bowed and retreated with a low laugh.

"Your Highness..."

When Yin Guannan saw this situation, although he didn't know what the Seventh Prince was going to do, he instinctively felt uneasy.

But in the current situation, he can neither escape nor fight.

I can only hope that His Highness really wants to ask about something, and then he can explain it clearly, and then maybe he will let him go.
