Jing Yuchen was extremely anxious and had no time to explain. He turned around and looked at Yi Wenxuan behind him: "If you don't want to become a slave of a conquered nation, then be a good boy and stop playing tricks. Escort these two to a safe destination!"
Yi Wenxuan was stunned. What had he just said to cause Jing Yuchen to react so strongly?
"No, you should at least tell me what you are going to do. Leaving us like this makes me feel a little..."
Before he could finish his words, Jing Yuchen had already jumped off the carriage and untied the ropes pulling the carriage. Yi Wenxuan's face changed, "You, what are you going to do!"
He quickly jumped off the carriage. Jing Yuchen untied the ropes, climbed onto the horse, and turned to look at Ni Yueshan: "I have urgent matters to attend to. You must ensure your own safety first! Be on guard against my father!"
After saying this, Jing Yuchen whipped the horse and it galloped away quickly.
Ni Yueshan watched him leave with a complicated expression, but she didn't say anything to stop him. She looked at Yi Wenxuan and said, "Come here and analyze with us why he left in such a hurry."
Yi Wenxuan felt depressed and walked towards Ni Yueshan and got on the carriage. Duan Gouqiong was also sitting in the carriage. Although he felt pressured, he had no horse and could only squeeze in here.
"Ahem, Miss Qingdie, I'll trouble you with the horse driving."
Yi Wenxuan gave Qingdie a reminder. Ni Yueshan had previously sent Qingdie out to look for Duan Gouqiong and Shao Lecheng. Now that they had been found, Qingdie was naturally recalled.
"Of course it's me who's bothering you, otherwise why not you?"
Qingdie patted the horse gently and it started again. The carriage shook and Yi Wenxuan almost fell down. He quickly grabbed the carriage and did not fall down. Then he sat back down.
"What did you talk about just now?" Ni Yueshan asked, suppressing his inner worries.
"I just said that Emperor Xianchang knows that you are hiding the truth about the gold mine. The emperor has learned about it and has ordered the excavation to be resumed for over a month..."
Ni Yueshan looked at Yi Wenxuan in surprise: "Are you serious?"
"Of course it's true! Although the matter of the gold mine was concealed, I was still interested in it and had people keep an eye on it. Who knew that Emperor Xianchang discovered the real gold mine and had people dig tunnels and excavate secretly..."
Ni Yueshan's expression also became interesting, as if he had guessed something.
Duan Gouqiong didn't understand the seriousness of this. She looked at Ni Yueshan and asked curiously, "Sister Yueshan, what went wrong? Can you explain it to me?"
Yi Wenxuan was also a little confused.
Ni Yueshan's eyes flickered. "The Emperor knew we were hiding this from him, but he didn't expose us. Instead, he sent you and Shao Lecheng to Tufan to marry. But now I'm guessing that all of this was orchestrated by the Emperor. He never considered the marriage, but only wanted to use you to provoke a war between Canglie and Tufan!"
"Why did the Emperor dare to use you? Gou Qiong, have you ever thought about this? You are the princess who symbolizes the peace agreement! But the Emperor still uses you. This shows that he has greater ambitions and thinks all this is worth it!"
"He just wants to start a war and then reap the benefits! Even if the war ends in the end, my father might still attack you, me, and Yuchen!"
"Because we deceived him, he holds a grudge against us, so he cruelly uses you and Lecheng to take risks in Tufan to achieve his goal!"
"Yu Chen was ordered to repair the canal, which might have been a punishment, but Yu Chen left without permission and escaped punishment? Father is not a relative at all, but treats us all as enemies and pawns!"
Duan Gouqiong was terrified when he heard this. They thought they were just ordinary people, but it turned out that they had long been excluded from the emperor's relatives, and the only thing he could do was to use them cruelly.
If the war is over, it is still possible to re-prosecute them one by one, and punish or even execute them!
Duan Gouqiong and Yi Wenxuan were both filled with sorrow and fell silent for a moment.
Finally, Yi Wenxuan asked doubtfully, "So, what is Prince Chen going to do now?"
Ni Yueshan's brows were tightly knitted, his face showing only worry. "Perhaps he will rush to the gold mine. You said that Father dug a tunnel and secretly mined for gold. But Father, at a time like this, if we use it a little, the tunnel is not for mining anymore..."
Yi Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, and his expression gradually became interesting: "What is it used for?"
"The tunnel from Xianchang to Tufan can be used by the miners, and naturally it can be used by the soldiers to infiltrate Tufan. Canglie's men will fight Tufan on the battlefield, while Xianchang's men can directly attack the Tufan Imperial City."
"But if King Canglie is unaware of this, and after a victory, if he enters the Imperial City, will he fall into Emperor Xianchang's trap and be captured alive? Terrorized? Or perhaps suffer a tragic death as well?"
"By then, the entire world will probably be in the hands of Emperor Xianchang..."
After Ni Yueshan's analysis, it must be said that Yi Wenxuan and Duan Gouqiong both understood.
Emperor Xianchang's scheme is too shrewd...
Duan Gouqiong clenched his fists tightly: "I think I shouldn't seek revenge on the eldest prince, but on Emperor Xianchang!"
She gritted her teeth, her eyes were red, and she wished she could kill the Emperor Xianchang with her own hands.
Ni Yueshan looked conflicted. She could attack Emperor Xianchang without hesitation, but she was worried that Jing Yuchen would be embarrassed. Even though she knew that her father had done many evil things, he was still his father after all!
Ni Yueshan lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside, hoping that everything would be fine.
