"Jiu'er, do you know his identity and background?"
"Second Uncle, you already have the answer in your heart, don't you?"
Hearing Ji Jiuying say this, there was nothing he didn't understand. However, he didn't understand how Xiao Jiu knew people from the Nine Heavens Divine Palace. People like Gong Mingyue were too dangerous! In any case, he still felt that Ye Qingchen was more suitable for Jiu'er.
“Jiu’er, if you stay with someone like him, you will face countless unseen dangers in the future…” Feng Che still tried to persuade her.
"Second Uncle, even if I don't end up with him, do you think my life will be peaceful from now on?" Ji Jiuying knew that her second uncle meant well, but he simply didn't understand A Yue.
"Ah Yue is fine, not like the rumors say!" Ji Jiuying's lips unconsciously curled up slightly when she spoke of him. Seeing this, Feng Che didn't say anything more and sighed in his heart. As long as she likes it, that's fine.
"The academy will be on holiday in a couple of days, and my uncle is going to the Heavenly Domain Continent. Be careful while I'm away!"
"Jiu'er, are you going back to Cangyue Kingdom?"
Feng Che asked, his biggest worry right now was her. She had too many things that the world coveted. But now that Feng Luo's plan had failed, with the Netherworld God Venerable by his side, he would definitely go to the Feng family to find help. And when the Feng family learned of her this time, they would definitely do everything in their power to capture her. He had to think of a way.
Ji Jiuying shook her head and lowered her eyes. "I need to go to the far north capital. I promised Gu Qingfeng that I would save Hua Wuyou."
Of course, besides rescuing Hua Wuyou, the purpose of this trip to the far north capital is also to seek revenge on Hua Shi'an.
Upon hearing that she was going to the far north capital, Feng Che frowned slightly. He had not forgotten about Hua Shi'an's scheme against Xiao Jiu and the spread of the Sunfire Bow to incite war. "Xiao Jiu, Hua Shi'an is too insidious and cunning. Be careful on this trip."
"Don't worry, Second Uncle, I'm with A-Yue this time, nothing will happen!" Ji Jiuying said with a smile.
However, just one day before the academy's holiday, the Western Jin Dynasty suddenly launched an attack on Jialan, capturing two cities in succession. Why would the Western Jin Dynasty suddenly attack Jialan instead of Cangyue? The purpose is self-evident.
A series of hurried footsteps came from outside the door.
"Little trick!"
"Little Jiu Jiu, something terrible has happened!"
"Young...Grand Preceptor!" Jun Lintian rushed in, and when he saw the man next to Ji Jiuying, he was stunned and immediately became restrained.
Gong Mingyue merely glanced at him out of the corner of his eye and gave a faint "hmm".
"Jun Lintian, you came to see me so early in the morning. You didn't come to tell me about the Western Jin attacking Jialan, did you?" Ji Jiuying said calmly.
"How did you know, Xiao Jiu Jiu?" Jun Lintian was quite surprised.
"Okay~ I know!"
"Actually...actually, there's something else..." Jun Lintian glanced at the Imperial Advisor who was peeling grapes beside him, and suddenly didn't know how to start speaking.
Looking at his expression, Ji Jiuying could actually guess a bit. Everyone with eyes could see that the purpose of the Western Jin was to attack Jialan. Firstly, they wanted to strengthen themselves, and secondly, they wanted to test Cangyue's reaction.
If Jialan submits to the Western Jin Dynasty in this battle, then the Western Jin Dynasty's next step will definitely be to attack Cangyue, wanting to unify the Cangming Continent. How could the Cangyue Emperor possibly allow such a thing to happen?
"Jun Lintian, does the Emperor intend for me to help Jialan?"
Jun Lintian nodded vigorously upon hearing this, then shook his head as if remembering something. "Father's intention is for you and me to lead 200,000 troops to secretly help Jialan..."
Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuying realized that being a princess was indeed not easy. When she learned that the Western Jin Dynasty was attacking Jialan, she knew that she would not be able to go to the far north this time!
“Since we’re helping out secretly, we don’t need too many men. Bringing too many would only expose us. Just bring a thousand men.” Ji Jiuying said leisurely as she ate the grapes that Gong Mingyue had peeled.
Jun Lintian stood there, stunned. Had he heard correctly? A thousand men? "Little Jiu Jiu, isn't a thousand a bit too few?"
Ji Jiuying shook her head. "Jun Lintian, in guerrilla warfare, having too many people will only be a hindrance. Once exposed, it won't just be a matter for Xijin and Jialan! Fewer people are actually more conducive to concealment."
Although that's what he said, Jun Lintian was still a little worried. Just as he was about to say something, footsteps came from outside the door again, but this time they stopped outside.
“Princess Anping, I am Han Shaoting, the eldest prince of Jialan. I have urgent business to discuss with you. Would it be convenient for you to see me?” A voice came from outside the door.
"Come in!"
When Han Shaoting stepped into the courtyard and saw Jun Lintian, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly cupped his hands in greeting, "Second Prince of Cangyue!"
Jun Lintian also cupped his hands in greeting, then glanced at Gong Mingyue's location. There was no trace of him there. Jun Lintian assumed that the Grand Preceptor didn't want too many people to see his true appearance. After all, back in Cangyue, he always wore a mask whenever he appeared. In the end, he was able to see the Grand Preceptor's true face thanks to Xiao Jiu!
"Second Prince, Princess Anping, the main reason for your visit is the Western Jin's attack on Jialan..." Han Shaoting told Ji Jiuying and Jun Lintian the whole story.
Before this, Ji Jiuying and Jun Lintian were wondering why Jialan, whose strength was no less than that of Xijin, had lost two cities in a row. After hearing Han Shaoting's words, they immediately realized the truth. However, they had to admit that Xijin was truly depraved. They had poisoned the city before attacking it. But this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that the poison was contagious. If this was not stopped, more innocent people would suffer.
"Crown Prince Jialan, we have a general understanding of what happened. I am here precisely for this matter. Rest assured, Cangyue will not stand idly by!" Jun Lintian said earnestly, while his eyes kept glancing at Ji Jiuying.
Han Shaoting was overjoyed, but then, as if remembering something, he added, "On behalf of Jialan, Han Shaoting thanks Cangyue, the Second Prince, and Princess Anping!"
"I wonder when the Second Prince and Princess Anping plan to depart?"
"First thing tomorrow morning!" Ji Jiuying answered before Jun Lintian could reply.
"Yes, we'll set off first thing tomorrow morning."
Jun Lintian gave a perfunctory reply, and upon seeing this, Han Shaoting nodded, "Shaoting has other important matters to attend to, so I won't disturb the Second Prince and Princess Anping any longer! Farewell."
After leaving the courtyard, Han Shaoting and Han Shaolin rushed back to Jialan without stopping. With Cang Yue's help, their chances of winning should be very high.
After Han Shaoting left, Ji Jiuying, Gong Mingyue, and Jun Lintian went to the military camp near the academy where the emperor had gathered. In the end, they only took a thousand elite soldiers with them, and had these thousand soldiers disguise themselves as ordinary civilians.
