Prince Yu's words made Emperor Yong'an break out in a cold sweat.
If this were true, wouldn't he have thought he had sent his two sons to a safe place, but in reality he had pushed them into a dangerous situation?!
But it’s hard to say.
This is also Prince Yu’s guess.
Emperor Yong'an tried his best to calm down.
“Having said that, Xiao San and Xiao Jiu have already left.
There's no way we can get them back.
What's more, what Brother Wang said is also speculation, the facts may not be like this.
Border issues must be handled properly no matter what.
It would be okay to let Xiaosan and Xiaojiu go to the border to take a look.
I will write a letter to remind them to pay attention to the situation in Fufeng State."
Prince Yu suppressed the calculation in his eyes and bowed respectfully, "Yes."
Although Emperor Yong'an said so, Prince Yu's words still left a trace of doubt in his heart.
His heart was pounding, and he kept wondering what would happen if Prince Yu's guess was true?
What if this is really a collaboration between Fufeng Kingdom and Yanchi Kingdom to plot against their Xianchao Kingdom?!
After much deliberation, Emperor Yong'an wrote down Prince Yu's speculation in the letter to his two sons, asking his two sons to be cautious and to keep some reserves before entering the territory of Fufeng State.
Emperor Yong'an also temporarily sent ten secret guards to protect his two sons.
When Rong Yanqing and Rong Youlin received the letter from the secret guards, they looked at each other after reading it.
Rong Youlin rubbed his chin, "How come this matter has become even more complicated?
If the border issue is really a conspiracy between Fufeng Kingdom and Yanchi Kingdom, then should we still go to Fufeng Kingdom?"
"Of course you have to go, but you have to be careful.
Third brother, when we go to Fufeng Kingdom, don't run around, follow me closely."
Rong Yanqing gave serious instructions.
Rong Youlin looked at Rong Yanqing who was giving serious instructions with a young face, and couldn't help but rub his hair with laughter.
"I know, I know. You're still young, and you have a lot to worry about."
Rong Yanqing frowned and slapped Rong Youlin's hand away, with a puzzled tone in his voice.
"Third brother, you never used to rub my hair. Where did you learn this?"
When Rong Youlin heard this, his eyes flashed. He put his arm around Rong Yanqing's shoulders like a brother, not letting him see his expression.
"I just learned this from seeing other brothers rubbing their younger siblings' hair like this."
"Really? Then Third Brother should learn something worthwhile."
Rong Yanqing slapped Rong Youlin's hand away again.
“It’s worth it.”
Rong Youlin retracted his hand and muttered.
Rong Yanqing lifted the curtains and looked outside, suspicion emerging in her phoenix eyes.
The feeling he had about his third brother was becoming increasingly strange.
The Third Prince clearly said that a man’s head should not be touched easily, so why did the Third Prince seem to have completely forgotten what he said before and kept rubbing his head?
And the third prince had been to Fufeng Kingdom, and he just told the third prince to go to Fufeng Kingdom and follow him closely.
Shouldn’t the Third Prince tell him to follow him closely, after all, he was the one who had been to Fufeng Kingdom?
The third prince acted as if he had never been to Fufeng Kingdom at all.
But although Rong Yanqing was confused, he didn't think too much about it.
It was just assumed that the Third Prince was stimulated after seeing his other brothers being killed by evil forces, so some changes occurred.
They were all busy on the road, and some even bought two more horses on the way because they felt the carriage was too slow, and rushed towards the border day and night.
It finally took seven days to reach the border under the cover of night.
The two brothers rested for a night and went to negotiate with the border soldiers of Fufeng State early the next morning.
Ye Xuanmeng was a little surprised when he heard that the third prince and the ninth prince of the Xian Dynasty wanted to see him.
He originally thought that the war between their Fufeng Kingdom and Xianchao Kingdom would be fought sooner or later, but he did not expect that people from Xianchao Kingdom would arrive just a few days later.
Then he could just take a look at what the Xian Dynasty was planning to do.
There is a small pavilion built in the middle of the border between Xianchao Kingdom and Fufeng Kingdom. Whether it is Ye Xuanmeng, Rong Yanqing, or Rong Youlin, they are more or less wary of each other's countries.
So the three of them agreed to meet in this pavilion.
Ye Xuanmeng was a little surprised when he saw Rong Yanqing.
This little prince...looks like he's only seven or eight years old, right?
The older prince looked no more than thirteen or fourteen years old.
Is there no one else in the Xian Dynasty?
Let the two little princes come and talk to them?
"General Ye, I have long heard of your great name. My name is Rong Yanqing, the ninth prince of the Xian Dynasty royal family. This is my third brother, Rong Youlin."
Rong Yanqing spoke first to introduce.
"General Ye, my name is Rong Youlin."
Rong Youlin bowed.
"I wonder what your Highnesses would like to discuss with me?"
Ye Xuanmeng also bowed and made a gesture of invitation.
The three of them sat down around the table, and Rong Yanqing spoke first.
"General Ye, we all know what happened at the border.
This is a misunderstanding. The Xian Dynasty has not done anything to your border soldiers.
I'm afraid someone is deliberately trying to sow discord between the Xian Dynasty and your country.
When my father learned about this, he immediately sent me and my brother to explain.”
Ye Xuanmeng was very surprised when he heard this.
"Your Highness the Ninth Prince means that it wasn't your soldiers who provoked our soldiers before?"
Rong Yanqing nodded, "Yes, we didn't know about this at first. It wasn't until your soldiers suddenly warned our soldiers that we learned that such a thing had happened without our knowledge.
However, it is still difficult to find out who did this with the intention of sowing discord between our two countries.
My brother and I have come here to clarify this matter with the general to avoid any misunderstandings that may arise from instigation.
In addition, I heard that your country's new emperor has recently ascended the throne. My father wants me and my brother to go to your country's capital to meet the new emperor and congratulate him. At the same time, I, on behalf of the royal family of the Xian Dynasty, also have important matters to discuss with the new emperor.
I wonder if General Ye needs to report this to your country's new emperor first?"
Rong Yanqing took the opportunity to tell his real purpose.
Ye Xuanmeng was even more surprised when he heard this.
"Your Highness, Third Prince, Your Highness, I still need to discuss this matter with others. When I have news, I will send someone to inform Your Highnesses. How do you think that is?"
"Okay, we'll stay at the border, and General Ye will let us know when the time comes."
Rong Youlin agreed.
There was nothing else to say for the time being. After the three of them bowed and said goodbye, they returned to the borders of their respective countries.
The two Rong brothers returned to the tent, and Rong Youlin asked Rong Yanqing curiously.
"Xiaojiu, you just said that you had something important to discuss with the new emperor of Fufeng Kingdom. What is it?
I don’t think I’ve ever heard you talk about this.”
Rong Yanqing sat at the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
"About this matter, Third Brother, I told you before that it might be the Yan Chi Kingdom that is trying to sow discord between us and the Fufeng Kingdom..."
