Upon hearing this, the round-faced girl immediately said, "It's not just big, it's practically all-powerful."
The girl probably doesn't know this yet, but in the war between the border and the Great Jin, Likunge's brother, Likunwu, has won several battles in a row. According to the soldiers guarding the city, Likunwu has led the Tuyuhun army to capture several cities in succession.
I reckon it won't be long before I can properly avenge the second prince.
Jiang Yimian was taken aback and immediately felt a pang of worry for Jiang Qingyuan.
Having lost several cities to the Tuyuhun in succession, the soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty must be under immense pressure.
If Aliji really becomes the Khan of Tuyuhun, the situation of the Great Jin Dynasty will be even more difficult.
They must deal with Aliji as soon as possible.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard the round-faced girl continue, "In another month, it will be the Tuyuhun's once-every-five-years blessing ceremony."
After that day, the eldest prince will not only become the new Khan, but Likunge will also become a prince of Tuyuhun outside the imperial family, with a status equivalent to the current eldest prince.
The Li Kun family will only become more arrogant in the future. They still have to be careful around the eldest prince now, but they won't have any scruples in the future.
In short, the Li Kun family are not to be trifled with. The young lady should remember not to get into any conflicts with them, and should avoid going out for the next few days; it's best to stay home for a while.
Anyone who dares to offend the Li Kun family will not have a good ending.
Jiang Yimian only responded and didn't say anything more. She prepared to go back and ask Aguzan about the matter of praying for blessings.
She and Ningxiang briefly confirmed the locations of several of Moge's properties before heading straight back to Yulin Lane.
As soon as they entered the house, the old butler told Jiang Yimian, "The master has returned."
Jiang Yimian responded and went straight to Aguzan's courtyard.
Aguzan was talking to several people inside the house. When he saw her coming, he didn't avoid her but continued talking.
"Let's keep looking for an opportunity to sneak into Likunge's mansion. In any case, it's better to be careful. There have been noticeably more patrols in the city recently, so we shouldn't be discovered by those people."
The group simply responded and then continued talking about other things.
Seeing this, Jiang Yimian didn't disturb them. Instead, she sat down on the swing in the corner of the yard, which was a bit far from the house, thus avoiding hearing their conversation.
But in his heart he was thinking about the blessing the round-faced girl had mentioned.
If the girl is right, Aguzan has at most one month left.
If he cannot return to the capital before the prayer ceremony to prove his existence, Aliji will be the future Khan of Tuyuhun.
No wonder Aliji hasn't been in a hurry to kill the old Khan for so long; he was waiting for this.
Once the prayer ceremony ends, Aliji will undoubtedly become the new Khan. He will no longer need to risk fighting against the old Khan and risk being branded as unfilial or even patricide.
By then, it would be too late for Aguzan to go back; the matter was already settled.
Just then, I saw several people come out of the house.
The group saw Jiang Yimian, nodded to her, and then left.
Aguzan leaned against the door and looked at the people in the courtyard, smiling as he said, "What brings the princess to me in such a hurry? That's quite rare!"
The old saying is true: a day apart feels like three autumns. Princess, are you missing me?
Jiang Yimian didn't even glance at him, automatically ignoring the ambiguity in his words, and said indifferently, "There's only one month left until the prayer ceremony. I wonder what the Second Prince's plans are."
I don't want the person I've been escorting for so long to lose all hope at the last minute.
Likunge is not like the people in other cities; they are not easy to deal with. Now, they are strictly guarding against people leaving the city. It will be difficult for them to leave Ancheng and head to the capital of Tuyuhun without being discovered.
Aguzan merely raised an eyebrow, glanced at her, and said, "It seems the princess's trip today was worthwhile; she heard quite a bit of useful information."
I will definitely return to the capital on the day of the prayer. Aliji wants to rightfully ascend to the position of Khan, but I will not let him have his way.
However, I do have something I need the princess's help with now.
Jiang Yimian glanced at him, signaling for him to speak.
Aguzan then put away his smile and said seriously, "Now that the princess knows about the blessing ceremony, she must also know that the Likun family will become a non-royal family in the future."
The Likun family now holds a pivotal position in Tuyuhun. To deal with Aliji, the Likun family must first be destroyed.
I want the princess to help me capture Likunge, so I can use that to threaten Likunwu, who is fighting against the Great Jin on the border.
When he takes down Aliji, he won't have to worry about Likunwu rebelling. This man has always loved his family, and Likunwu is the best piece to control him.
Jiang Yimian glanced at him and sneered, "I don't know if the Second Prince is too confident or too trusting of me."
Capturing Li Kunge is a hundred times harder than killing him.
The man was surrounded by countless guards, and there were even many secret guards everywhere. If they dared to make a move against him, they would be killed first.
Not to mention that the guy himself knew martial arts, but I don't know why he didn't show it that day. Instead, he was directly knocked away by the bull without even trying to dodge.
It's unclear whether it was a performance intended for the common people or for Aguzan's subordinates, with the aim of luring them out.
Aguzan was not angry when he heard this, but laughed out loud. "Of course I have confidence in the princess."
Likunge is a man who loves foreign beauties. If the princess can attract his attention, my men will naturally be able to seize the opportunity to capture him.
I just don't know if the princess would be willing to help with this."
Although unwilling to admit it, Jiang Yimian was strikingly beautiful and had a cool and aloof personality, which gave her a unique charm. If she appeared in front of Li Kunge, she would definitely attract all of his attention.
If his previous encounter in Chuncheng hadn't constantly reminded him that this woman was not someone he could covet, he wouldn't have resorted to such a desperate measure today. He had to at least give Lu Cijian a sense of crisis.
Upon receiving that cold gaze, Aguzan quickly explained to prove his innocence, "Princess, please don't misunderstand, I have no ulterior motives. Everyone knows that Likunge loves foreign beauties, I was definitely not joking with you."
Now, the princess should already know that the Great Jin has suffered successive defeats at the border and is struggling to hold on.
If we don't work together this time, not only will I die, but the people on the border of the Great Jin Dynasty will suffer the same fate.
Aliji had deployed almost all of his elite troops to the border during this attack on Dajin. Otherwise, Dajin would not have suffered such a devastating defeat.
Although Tuyuhun appears to have the upper hand, they are actually frighteningly weak.
If the Xiliang people seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, the Tuyuhun army will surely be defeated instantly.
Aliji wanted to seize the opportunity to occupy the Central Plains, but little did he know that Xiliang also wanted to, and even wanted to occupy Tuyuhun.
Jiang Yimian remained silent for a long time before saying, "Xue Lingyu will probably hire someone to attack me. She should know something. If you want to save your people, this is an opportunity."
Aguzan merely raised an eyebrow. Seeing that she didn't refuse and instead brought up his subordinates, he simply smiled and said, "Princess, don't worry too much about me. I'm afraid I'll really miss you when the time comes."
