Chapter 433: The Demon Concubine Who Brings Trouble to the Nation vs. the Bandit Emperor of the Founding of the Country 44
Ji Liao already knew his daughter's secret. His daughter had revealed some of it to him, so he asked her to keep it secret and not tell anyone else.
There are many strange people in troubled times, and it is not known whether it is a blessing or a curse. He just wants his daughter to be safe and sound, and it would be best if she never has to use this strange ability in her life.
It's all his fault for being useless. Now that his whole family is exiled, they have to rely on the things in his daughter's space to survive. He doesn't know if such frequent use will have an impact on his daughter's health. Everything is unknown. He only hopes that his daughter can keep this secret forever and stay safe and healthy.
Ji Liao whispered, "Can you fit it? If not, don't force it, and don't hurt yourself."
Ji Yunhuan was very excited. "Yes, yes, yes! It just takes some time, and I have to go in. This place is too big, with several warehouses. I can't cover that far."
In a flash, Ji Yunhuan had already moved the food placed outside into the space. As she was moving, she muttered quietly, "I don't know where the remaining three warehouses are. It would be great if we could move them all away."
Ji Liao recalled the city defense map of Jeju City and whispered, "Jeju City has the responsibility of defending Luojing. If an enemy attacks from the south, Jeju City will be the last barrier of Luojing. The treasury of a general city is in the prefectural government office, but Jeju City is different. In addition to the treasury in the government office, there are three hidden treasuries."
"I was memorizing the route while in the car. This place should be the northwest of Jeju City. It's a vast area with few people. It should be the largest treasury. There is another one three miles to the west and another five miles to the south. The last one is the prefectural government office. Although it's small, it should have a lot of good things."
Ji Yunhuan saw stars in front of his eyes and felt like he couldn't hold on any longer. He immediately took out a bag of spiritual spring water and drank it to replenish his energy.
She gave Ji Liao a thumbs up and praised him sincerely, "Daddy's brain is really good. I was dizzy, but you can still remember the way. The whole Jin State is in your brain. If you wanted to rebel, the dog emperor would have rolled off the dragon throne long ago."
Ji Liao remained calm after hearing these treasonous words. He sighed quietly, "The emperor thinks the same way. If the emperor is weak and the ministers are strong, this day will come sooner or later. But if I am not strong, how can I defend the northern border and suppress the fierce army of Rongdi?"
"I thought this day would come later. After all, the situation in the North is not optimistic. I am still useful. I thought I could retreat while the tide is still high. When the situation in the North is stable, I would resign and take your mother back to the countryside. In the end, I was wrong. I feel sorry for you and your mother."
The parents were sitting on the threshold of the warehouse. Ji Yunhuan saw the tears in her father's eyes, and her heart felt sad.
"This is not Daddy's fault. Huan'er has always known that Daddy's lifelong wish is to quell the war in the northern border and let the people live and work in peace. But the emperor is unkind and unjust. He doesn't care about the lives of the people at all."
"The people of Luojing are reveling every night, and have long forgotten the shame of the migration to the south. But Daddy has not forgotten, and neither have the suffering people north of Luojiang. Daddy, one day, we will fight back to the northern border and take back all the lost territory!"
Ji Liao patted his daughter's head, his face showing relief. "Most people in Luojing City are just trying to make a living. My Huan'er is more knowledgeable than me. If there really comes a day like that, Daddy will be able to retire and spend time with your mother."
Ji Yunhuan stood up and prepared to continue moving the treasury. Suddenly, many torches lit up in the distance. The lights were bright and the earth was shaking. A group of soldiers rushed over and surrounded the treasury.
Ji Yuan was so frightened that he hid behind Ji Liao in a panic. Ji Yuncheng hunched his shoulders, wishing he could curl himself into a small dot, and his whole body was shaking uncontrollably.
"Uncle, who are they? Are they here to kill us?"
Ji Liao stood up with the help of a cane, looked around, and said coldly: "The one who can mobilize the garrison in Jeju City must be the prefect. Ji is really honored. I trouble Prefect Yan to bring so many people to welcome him."
"Since you are here, why don't you come out and meet him? Prefect Yan is surrounded by so many elite soldiers and strong generals, and I am alone. Could it be that Prefect Yan is afraid?"
The crowd parted in the middle, and Yan Hongkang walked out surrounded by soldiers.
He was wearing a red official robe with silver shoulder and breastplate on the outside. He had a sword at his waist, which was exquisitely made. The gems inlaid on the scabbard reflected the light and sparkled brightly.
Yan Hongkang stood three meters away from Ji Yuan and sighed, "Brother Ji, considering that we have known each other for a long time, I have come to see you off specially. Just go on your journey with peace of mind."
Ji Yunhuan quickly and secretly stuffed some weapons into her father's hands and prepared some hidden weapons for herself. She took a step back, spreading out her mental power, ready to take action at any time.
Ji Liao said calmly, "Mobilizing the garrison without an order is a capital crime. Prefect Yan has brought out so many people with such a grand ceremony. It's not just to send Ji off, right?"
Yan Hongkang put on a look of deep sorrow and pointed at Ji Liao and said, "You have evil intentions and have raised private soldiers. You are exiled in name only, but you are actually gathering rebels along the way and plotting something bad!"
"Today you broke into Jeju City with the intention of attacking the treasury, and wanted to use Jeju City as a base to head straight to Luojing! Jeju City is in danger, and this prefect naturally has the right to mobilize the garrison and fight the traitor to the death!"
"When the late emperor moved south, he entrusted the northern border to you. You said you would defend the northern border and the people of Jin with your life. The late emperor never doubted you and promoted you to the rank of general. The late emperor treated you well, but you became more arrogant and domineering. After the late emperor left, you didn't even take the current emperor seriously."
"You traveled between Luojing and the northern border without any hindrance. You threatened His Majesty many times, falsely reported food and wages, and embezzled money. His Majesty held a banquet to welcome you, but you dared to cause trouble in the palace and disrespect His Majesty! His Majesty is merciful. Even if there are many rumors outside, he only sentenced you to exile."
"But you are still a traitor. You have gathered private soldiers outside Jeju City, killing people and setting fires, and committing all kinds of evil. Such a traitor should be killed by everyone. For the sake of our friendship, I can leave your body intact."
Yan Hongkang was born with a righteous look, thick eyebrows, big eyes, a square face, a tuft of beard, and a sword drawn. He was both elegant and heroic, and when he cursed, he was sonorous and powerful, and could turn black into white.
Ji Liao suddenly realized, "No wonder you're going to such great lengths. You really haven't changed your original intention and are still thinking of making me rebel."
"Yan Hongkang, when the late emperor decided to move south, you, as the garrison commander of Jindu, should have stayed in Jindu to fight the enemy, but you abandoned the city and fled, disregarding the safety of the people in the city. Now you have become a prefect. You are only good at talking, but you know nothing about leading troops in battle. If I really rebel, can you, a loser, stop me?"
