The carriage drove straight to Wangyan City. The road was bumpy, and the three people in the carriage had no interest in the picturesque scenery around them. Whether it was the green mountains and green waters, or the streams in the fields, they could not attract their attention or appreciation at all. It was as if these beautiful scenery were in two different worlds from them.

It was not until the carriage stopped at the entrance of the Ying Mansion that Yun Lou, the driver, suddenly let out a breath of foul air. He had not rested for the past few days and had been traveling day and night.

Xiao Zuochen got off the carriage with the help of Chu Yao, but he couldn't help coughing again. The guards at the gate of Ying Mansion saw that it was His Royal Highness Prince Yun and Master Chu who came back, and hurried to greet them.

"Your Highness Prince Yun, Master Chu!"

"Go and get the doctor!"

Chu Yao said.

"Ah, yes!"

The guard also saw Chu Yao's anxiety and quickly turned around and ran to find a doctor. Another guard came forward to help carry the baggage or something, but found that they didn't bring anything.

"Go and inform Mr. Ying first. We have something urgent to discuss with him."

Because Xiao Zuochen suddenly developed a serious cough, Chu Yao had to command him. Yun Lou was watching from behind, and suddenly he remembered their relationship, and couldn't help but nod. It's true, this Master Chu has been with his master for a long time, so he really acts like his master when he orders him around~ Moreover, Master Chu is a martial arts master, and now his master is still sick, one of them supports the other, and the two of them standing there really feel like a young general and his sick wife.

"what are you thinking about?"

Chu Yao suddenly turned around and looked at Yun Lou, just in time to meet his uncontrollable smile.

Yunlou's feet slipped due to the "questioning", and he stumbled on the stairs and almost fell.

When Chu Yao saw him like this, his eyebrows raised in shock and his eyes widened.

"You should go and get some rest. I hope to see you again in the evening!"

"..."

Yunlou was speechless, but he could only leave quickly to hide his embarrassment.

Chu Yao supported Xiao Zuochen and went directly to the study. In order to prevent Xiao Zuochen from coughing more severely due to "violent" coughing, Chu Yao slowed down his pace as much as possible and put more force on Xiao Zuochen's hand, asking him to lean on him as much as possible. When they reached the study at a snail's pace, Mr. Ying was already sitting inside.

"This is...?"

Mr. Ying was originally surprised when he heard that Xiao Zuochen had returned to the door, but when he saw him being helped in with a pale face, his expression suddenly became solemn, and he looked at Chu Yao beside him with questioning eyes.

"Urgent~"

Chu Yao summarized it directly with two words that he thought were very appropriate. Mr. Ying also knew Chu Yao. Judging from what he meant, Xiao Zuochen should not have any major problems.

Xiao Zuochen, who was standing nearby, sat down and took a moment to explain.

"It's just a relapse of an old illness, nothing serious."

"An old illness recurred? But didn't the old man say that your cough was cured?"

"Yes, I'm fine. I haven't had an attack for a long time. It was just that I got some news a couple of days ago and got emotional, so the attack relapsed."

"What happened?"

Mr. Ying was curious and couldn't help but lean forward.

"Yun Wei, he's still alive."

"What!?"

Mr. Ying's voice became higher. Chu Yao was shocked by his voice and opened his eyes wide, but he pressed his lips together and dared not make any sound. He even saw clearly that Mr. Ying's spine was straightened. If his limbs were not disabled, he would have jumped up!

"Who spread the news? Is this news reliable?"

Mr. Ying asked excitedly. Xiao Zuochen nodded firmly.

Yun Wei was raised by Mr. Ying, and he was like half a son to him. When Mr. Ying first learned of Yun Wei's death, he secretly shed tears in his room. Now that he knew he was still alive, it was great news!

"The news came from Baili Qing. Yun Wei didn't die in the forest, he was found by the Miao border guards. He must have suffered from the sequelae of the secret technique, which caused him to lose his memory, and the Miao took the opportunity to make him their own. The reason why Yun Qiao and Yun Bai failed to escort Xiao Zuoqing this time was because the other party sent a person with high martial arts skills. I think this person is Yun Wei, so everything is true. Since Baili Qing can tell the place where Yun Wei had the accident, I think he is not lying."

Mr. Ying nodded after listening to this. He was well aware of Yun Wei's strength. Those two brats, Yun Qiao and Yun Bai, had never practiced martial arts well before. It was really shameful that two of them could not beat one!

"What about Yunqiao and Yunbai now...?"

Mr. Ying also knew about the disappearance of Yunqiao and Yunbai. Even though he despised them, they were children he raised and he loved them dearly.

"It should be that Yun Wei took him back to Miaojiang."

"What? These two idiots!"

Mr. Ying couldn't help but curse.

"It's fine if I can't win, but I can be taken back to Miaojiang? Doesn't that mean he was knocked unconscious?"

"Forehead..."

Xiao Zuochen didn't know how to refute, but judging from the results, it seemed to be the case.

"But this is not the main reason why I came back this time. I came here to discuss something more important with you."

Mr. Ying looked at Xiao Zuochen, who looked very serious. Mr. Ying frowned, realizing that something was wrong, and even lowered his voice.

"You said."

"The Miao people may invade Tai'an."

To Mr. Ying, this news was not as exciting as Yun Wei's. In other words, they could have predicted that Miaojiang would rebel, it was just a matter of time.

"Did Baili Qing also tell you this news?"

"Well, because I threatened her son's life, she told me the news."

"Her plan has failed. She is of no use to Miaojiang. If the Miaojiang invasion succeeds, she and her son will not survive. So it is the right choice for her to tell you about this."

"It's just that she doesn't know the details, and the Miao people didn't tell her much. They just promised her that after Miao successfully occupied Tai'an, they would give her some benefits and make her and her son glorious. But with the strength of Miao, even if they invaded on a large scale, both sides would suffer. They don't have the strength to confront Tai'an head-on. At that time, it would just be a good thing for the enemy to reap the benefits. Miao wouldn't be stupid enough to really do that, right?"

Xiao Zuochen said his analysis. He believed that Baili Qing would not lie to him about this matter, but he had never figured out why Miaojiang did such a self-defeating thing. But when he told Mr. Ying about his doubts, he also solved his doubts. Mr. Ying also thought of something from his words, and the two looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

"unless..."

"Unless, Miaojiang has colluded with the enemy country!"
