"Yanluo, take Miss Yue to the Prince's study," Su Ruojin instructed.
Yanluo walked over and said, "Miss Yue, this way please."
These past two days, apart from attending court, Xiao Yanchu has been staying at the Prince's residence with Su Ruojin and the children. If any court officials have urgent matters to discuss, they can go to the Prince's residence to consult with him.
Previously, the Minister of Revenue had come to Xiao Yanchu to discuss something, and the two went to the study.
When Yanluo brought Yueling to the study of the Prince's mansion, they saw Xiao Yanchu and the Minister of Revenue come out.
Seeing Yue Ling appear, Xiao Yanchu was a little surprised, "Junior Sister, what brings you here?"
The Minister of Revenue could tell that the prince had other matters to attend to, so he said, "Your Highness, I must take my leave."
Xiao Yanchu nodded. "Hu Qing, see Lord Wang out."
After Hu Qing and the Minister of Revenue left, Xiao Yanchu led Yue Ling to the study.
"Junior sister, please sit down. Is there something urgent?"
Xiao Yanchu knew his junior sister well; she would never have come to the Prince's Mansion unless it was something important.
Yue Ling's expression was somewhat solemn. "Senior brother, news has come from Bei Li that the King of Bei Li has appointed Ze Kun as the King of Yi Xiang and is secretly collecting grain. I'm afraid he's about to make some move."
After Yue Ling left Bei Li, the Bin Yi Alliance members stayed in Bei Li to gather information, and this is what they relayed back.
Xiao Yanchu nodded. "It's not surprising. Queen Bei Li, Prince Qin, and Prince Xiao Yong all died at our hands. Wanyan Dading will not be able to swallow this insult."
"Senior brother, I want to go back to Bei Li first to find out more details, so that I can be prepared if anything happens."
Yue Ling came to visit Su Ruojin today ahead of schedule and brought gifts for Princess Leyang, because she was preparing to return to Bei Li first.
She didn't know when she would return, so she came to deliver the gift first.
Yue Ling's family wasn't wealthy to begin with, but she remembered her parents telling her that silver locks could ward off evil spirits.
The child's soul is still unstable and is most susceptible to fright, so she carefully selected a pair of small silver locks to send over, as a token of her affection.
No, you don't need to go.
“But…” Yue Ling was about to say something when Xiao Yanchu interrupted her.
"It's alright. With Su Wenzhou guarding Mo Han now, it won't be easy for Bei Li to gather enough provisions this season. After Nian'er's full moon celebration, I will set off for Bei Li with General Su!"
Yue Ling was taken aback. "Senior brother, it's just about guarding Mo Han. You don't need to get involved, do you? The Emperor isn't here, but Great Chu still needs you."
"It's alright. With Grand Tutor Su watching over things, Great Chu will be fine. If we don't take down Bei Li, Mo Han will never have peace," Xiao Yanchu said, his tone as calm as eating and drinking.
Yue Ling then realized that her senior brother was actually going to take down Bei Li!
Throughout history, there have always been conflicts between Bei Li and Da Chu, but there has never been a direct attack on Bei Li.
When Yue Ling left the Prince's mansion, she was still a little dazed, but then she became excited.
If Bei Li were to submit to the Great Chu, wouldn't the lives of ordinary people in Bei Li be better?
During her time infiltrating Bei Li, Yue Ling came into contact with many Bei Li people and found that most of them were quite kind.
At the same time, Yue Ling also witnessed the hardships faced by countless people in Bei Li.
Nomadic people rely on the weather for their livelihood; when it gets cold, they suffer from cold and hunger.
In winter, many people freeze to death or starve to death.
The conflicts between nations are often not what the people want, and war brings only suffering to ordinary people.
