The name Qiao Lian'er floated into his mind, and Prince Takumi felt a sense of eeriness and chill.
But he felt the possibility was slim.
This matter was carried out in secret, unlike the previous two times. They did send people to the border of Jinglang Prefecture to cause trouble, so it's normal that it attracted Qiao Lian'er's attention and prompted her to take timely action.
What if all sorts of coincidences just happened to come together? She just happened to be on the border of Jinglang Prefecture, and she just happened to be leading a troop of cavalry to scout the situation there.
Therefore, these can be explained with some effort.
But he wrote back to his country, asking Dongfu Kingdom to prepare a batch of high-quality gunpowder and then secretly transport it over. Only he, Mutai, and his confidants in Dongfu Kingdom knew about it.
Moreover, the sea area they traveled was in the northern part of the Dazeguo Sea, thus avoiding the sight of the Dazeguo Navy.
Unless Qiao Lian'er truly possesses clairvoyance and can appear anywhere at will.
But is this something a human can do?
Mu Tai's face showed only a terrifying sneer and disgust at being played, as if he no longer wanted to hear Prince Takumi's explanation.
Takumi glared at the naval soldiers from Dongfu who had come with him and asked in Dongfu's language, "Did you encounter any unusual situations while escorting the gunpowder all the way here?"
"Reporting to Prince Tuohai, more than a dozen cargo ships have exploded on the sea," the soldier stammered.
"However, General Bencheng returned to replenish the gunpowder supply for the dozen or so ships. They should arrive in Danu Kingdom in five or six days."
"How could the gunpowder from Dongfu Kingdom explode? Did you not prepare the best quality goods?" Crown Prince Tuohai asked incredulously.
"General Liu Mu did indeed arrange things according to the Crown Prince's request. The King had some objections to this, feeling that Dongfu and Danu had no dealings with each other, yet they were sending so much high-quality gunpowder. However, the King also felt that the Crown Prince might have his own reasons for doing this, so he approved it."
To this day, the king of Dongfu Kingdom is still unaware that Princess Lingyu and Princess Hefeng are dead.
Prince Takumi's head buzzed, and he felt like he was about to collapse. He pressed his forehead and staggered back a few steps.
"This is absurd, this is absurd."
But in Mutai's eyes, Prince Takumi's state seemed more like acting.
"Given such a huge pile of junk, no matter how much Prince Takumi acts, it's useless. You dare to play tricks on the true nature of the people, and you dare to play tricks on the Da Nu Kingdom. Have you thought about what the consequences will be?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of his men surrounded Prince Takumi.
Crown Prince Tuohai's expression changed again, and he said sternly, "How dare you! I am the Crown Prince of Dongfu Kingdom and the future heir to the throne of Dongfu Kingdom. If you dare to take me down without my permission, you are going against Dongfu Kingdom. Dongfu Kingdom may not be able to defeat Daze Kingdom, but dealing with a small grassland country like Danu Kingdom is not a problem."
Mu Tai snorted: "He went to the Kingdom of Da Nu alone and acted recklessly, and even dared to make wild threats. Crown Prince Tuo Hai is too arrogant, too disregarding the Kingdom of Da Nu, and overestimating his own abilities. If the Kingdom of Da Nu does not make any response, wouldn't all the neighboring countries laugh at him?"
At this moment, Khan Zhenyu arrived with a group of ministers.
After all, filling the three gunpowder depots would play a crucial role in the strategic plans of the Da Nu Kingdom and would also enhance its national prestige, something the Great Khan Zhenyou was very much looking forward to.
