The people at the next table, hearing their words, also became angry.
"That's right, those damn Tuyuhun soldiers have even come to control Chuncheng. It's infuriating. I was hoping to make a fortune this time, but now, before I've even gotten any money, they've already given those soldiers a huge sum."
"Shh, let's keep our voices down. Tuyuhun soldiers may pass by at any time."
I don't think the strictness of the search in Kunming has anything to do with the deceased queen of Tuyuhun.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yimian looked at the middle-aged man who had spoken and asked curiously, "What do you mean?"
Jiu Niang and the others also looked at him.
The middle-aged man lowered his voice and said, "I think it's still related to the second prince of Tuyuhun leading people to the Great Jin to attend the Yan Archery Banquet a few months ago."
When the second prince left, he heard that the Khan of Tuyuhun was sick, but it was a minor illness and did not attract much attention.
But not long after, news came that the Khan was seriously ill.
Immediately afterwards, the eldest prince of Tuyuhun suddenly announced to the world that the Great Jin Dynasty intended to do something untoward to Tuyuhun and was using the second prince as a hostage.
They say the second prince swore to resist to the death and has already committed suicide in the Great Jin dungeon.
Then, they directly tore up the treaty of peaceful coexistence with the Great Jin Dynasty, and the two sides began to fight.
The news came out of nowhere, too suddenly, and too strangely.
Do you think the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty would do such a thing to the royal family of a country that has come to surrender?
The other person just snorted and said, "Who knows? If the Emperor of Jin is dissatisfied with the demands made by Tuyuhun, then it is understandable that he would do this."
If I were the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, I would have immediately beheaded that second prince as a warning to others.
The Emperor of Jin simply hadn't expected Tuyuhun to be so assertive this time. What, you still doubt that the eldest prince's words are true?
"That's right, the Emperor of Jin must have made a mistake. He thought that Tuyuhun would be afraid of Wei Jinghai and would not dare to go to war with Jin. He never expected it to turn out like this."
However, it's too late to worry about whether what the eldest prince said is true or false. Now that Tuyuhun and Jin have started fighting, the emperor of Jin must be furious. Even if he didn't kill the second prince before, the second prince probably has no way to survive now.
Now the Tuyuhun are practically under the control of the eldest prince, so ultimately it's up to him to decide what to do.
The Tuyuhun people initially refused to acknowledge Aliji, but now they have no choice but to. The Tuyuhun royal family has declined, and he is now the only prince left.
With the Khan about to disappear, isn't the only option to make him Khan?
The middle-aged man immediately slammed his hand on the table and whispered, "That's the problem. Everyone should believe what the eldest prince of Tuyuhun said now, and they all think that the emperor of Jin directly killed the second prince."
What if the Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty hadn't killed the second prince? The martial law imposed on Tuyuhun and the large number of soldiers and officials in Chuncheng would all make sense then.
All of this was to prevent the second prince from returning to Tuyuhun, or rather, to take the second prince's life.
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback, and then burst into laughter.
"Impossible! Stop talking nonsense! What would the Emperor of Jin do with the Second Prince? You're just spouting nonsense; I don't believe you."
These people are all from the Great Jin Dynasty, do you think they believe you? Just relax and eat."
"Exactly, I don't believe it either. Okay, there's no point in saying anything more, let's eat."
Seeing that no one believed him, the middle-aged man just pursed his lips and didn't continue, burying his head in his food.
Jiang Yimian raised an eyebrow and glanced at the middle-aged man, surprised that a Tuyuhun man could see so clearly.
However, there are probably not many Tuyuhun people who are so clear-headed.
Aguzan was lucky to return this time, and it will probably be difficult for him to compete with Aliji for the Khan's position.
Jiu Niang looked at Jiang Yimian and the others curiously and asked, "Where is your brother? Why can't we see him?"
Upon hearing this, the bearded man beside him teased, "Oh, Ninth Sister, you don't actually have your eye on this young lady's brother, do you? Aren't you afraid of hurting your old flame? Aren't you going to see him this time?"
Those around Jiu Niang burst into laughter upon hearing this.
Several others chimed in, "That's right, your old flame is probably waiting for you!"
Jiu Niang wasn't annoyed. She simply tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and smiled sweetly at them. "What's wrong? Jealous?"
It was just an ordinary action, but Jiu Niang made it look incredibly charming.
For a time, it attracted the attention of most people in the inn.
The bearded man and his companions were all stunned for a moment, then quickly lowered their heads and said nothing more.
It didn't seem like he was attracted by Jiu Niang's seductive charm; rather, it seemed like he was afraid.
Jiang Yimian was stunned.
She had initially thought that the strongest man was in charge of the group, but now it seemed that it should be Jiu Niang.
It wasn't exactly unexpected, but it did surprise her somewhat.
It was truly astonishing that Jiu Niang, who not only seemed to lack martial arts skills but also appeared easy to bully, was the leader among a group of men.
Recalling what happened at the dock, her surprise dissipated.
Indeed, someone who can calm down those soldiers with just a few words and escape unscathed is no simple person, even if they don't know martial arts.
Seeing Jiang Yimian's surprise, Jiu Niang just smiled and said, "Alright, what are you doing? Talk to yourselves. Don't scare my sister and make her think I'm some kind of bad person. I won't let you off easily. Be normal."
After saying that, she looked at Jiang Yimian and smiled, saying, "It might not be so easy to leave the city this time. In that case, how about I take you to a fun place later?"
Jiang Yimian thought for a while before nodding.
Fortunately, she was unharmed and wanted to see if there were any properties belonging to the Mo Pavilion around. Going out for a stroll with Jiu Niang seemed like a good option.
It's better than her wandering around like a headless fly.
Seeing that she agreed, Jiu Niang just smiled, but the smile on her lips was a little strange.
The men around her also seemed hesitant to speak, staring at Jiang Yimian for a while before only opening their mouths and then burying their heads in their food, saying nothing more.
Jiang Yimian didn't pay much attention to it, but when they arrived at their destination, she finally understood why those people were hesitant to speak.
The building in front of us is decorated in a particularly elegant style. From a distance, you might mistake it for a bookstore or something similar.
Especially the men on the second-floor terrace, their clothes fluttering, some with delicate features and others with refined appearances, were looking down at the poems in their hands, a sight that was truly delightful to behold.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a male-oriented clinic.
A number of handsome men dressed in various colors saw them at the entrance and immediately surrounded them.
"Ninth Sister, it's been so long since I've seen you. You've finally come today. Oh, this girl and these men are unfamiliar faces. They're together too."
"You've come at the perfect time. I happen to have no guests right now, so I'll take good care of you."
As the men talked, they surrounded the group and made a move to lean on them.
