At the Stone Forest outside the Great Wall, Lu Yingxing and his men arrived exhausted.

Also accompanying them were Su Wei and Nie Jing, who had insisted on coming along. They now considered themselves to be competitors, fighting for the management rights of the 'Employment Union'. They used the excuse that this incident was related to the union and they had to come and take a look.

Shen Yu? ? When did I say that? ?

Shopkeeper Lu? ? As if I didn't exist? ?

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" The 30,000 soldiers who stayed behind in Shilin were led by a deputy general who was once a captain of the guards at the Zhuo Palace in Luocheng. At the beginning, these people had been taken away by Gu Liu and Gu Chen and placed in the position of leader of the army.

"Is there any news over there?" Lu Yingxing dropped the reins, paused when he saw the tent, and asked as he walked in.

The tents used by the Zhuocheng army now have all been improved by Shen Yu. The tents are made of bamboo as support poles, which are light and easy to carry. They are the most suitable for camps with short stays like theirs.

"Your Highness, they have just arrived half an hour ago." The deputy general handed over a letter respectfully, "Zhao Fan's men were not killed, and he also persuaded the Yun family to rebel." It's just that the method was a bit... too bold?

"Oh?" Lu Yingxing raised a hint of interest when he heard it. He elegantly reached out to take it, and quickly glanced at it. The more he looked at it, the more strange his expression became.

He put the letter in his arms and put it away, a helpless smile on his face, his eyes filled with unconscious doting, "Just do as he says, and cooperate with him fully."

Su Wei and Nie Jing looked at each other. Seeing that the prince had no intention of sharing, they had to ask, "Prince, what did Zhao Fan say?"

Lu Yingxing just said meaningfully, "We are not looking for Zhao Fan. Let's set off after resting for an hour to find His Royal Highness the Second Prince."

“???????” The two were confused. What are you talking about?

Lu Junling, who was far away in Los Angeles, was processing documents on the top floor of Tongtian Tower, and he sneezed many times for no apparent reason.

"The previous generations of Beirong kings never proposed to cooperate with Linyue. Why are you doing this?"

"Besides, after finding the mineral vein, do you think this prince will lack people to mine it?"

"You said you have hundreds of thousands of soldiers, right? But I see this is just a small village with about a hundred people living here."

"I really don't understand, why do you keep me here?"

……

Zhao Fan here is still dealing with "Mo Gu", essentially stalling for time. His people should have returned to Shilin long ago. He didn't dare to send anyone back rashly as he hadn't figured out their deployment yesterday.

Mo Gu's expression did not change, but his tone was a little gnashing, "This is just a temporary contact point for us."

"Oh? Then tell me, who are those women and children imprisoned in the stable at the back? Also, who are those twenty or so men you tortured and interrogated?"

"Mo Gu" was startled, and a flash of panic flashed across his eyes. It seemed that he had never expected that the other party knew this place so well. It seemed that the Second Prince had more people than those on the surface...

Zhao Fan watched his eyes rolling around and knew that he must be desperately trying to think of an excuse.

As expected, what the princess said was right again. These people were not very smart. The side branches that were thrown outside the pass were indeed cannon fodder. "This prince will give you one last chance. Tell me, who are you?"

Zhao Fan looked at him with a smile, but his eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. "Mo Gu" couldn't help but wonder, didn't he already know his true origins? Was this question just a test?

But that shouldn't be the case. They have been lurking for more than ten years and have never been discovered. His eldest son went to secretly hook up with Tan Fuyao, but that stupid woman didn't notice it either, right?

The second son of the Yun family was indeed extremely anxious. He looked at "Mo Gu" and his eyes were constantly hinting at something frantically.

Qin Shibo, who had been observing for a long time, finally curled his lips in disappointment. He thought this person was really the second prince... But he also realized that how could a prince's identity token clearly indicate the family rank? Did he have to write "the legitimate son of the Qin family" on his token?

He snorted and looked at the Yun family with contempt. He knelt down quickly and said, "I am willing to follow the Second Prince's lead. Qin Shibo, the eldest son of the Qin family, volunteers to stay outside the pass to help the Second Prince watch over these people."

Zhao Fan gave him a surprised look and said coldly, "We in the Lu family don't accept just anyone. You? You're not qualified." The captain didn't act stupidly at the critical moment? I thought he didn't understand the twists and turns here.

Qin Shibo was so angry that he almost died. Damn it! He did it on purpose!

But the two of them had completed tasks together and had a little tacit understanding. He certainly knew how to cooperate, so he said with a look of grievance, "No, Second Prince, my father is the richest man in Zhuocheng, can't he be better than these barbarians from outside the Great Wall? If we want to cooperate, of course it's better to cooperate with our own people. After all, I am also a Linyue person, and you are the future emperor of Linyue. In the future, won't you have the final say in Linyue?"

In fact, Qin Shibo didn't understand what Zhao Fan was planning, but judging from his implication, he should want to win back these two people. The other party was also obviously interested... but he was just a little bit short of the right time.

He was not good at conspiracies and tricks, but he remembered his father saying that if he wanted to close a deal, the most important thing was to make the customer think that there were other people competing for the goods, as people were most likely to make impulsive decisions when they were in a competitive situation.

In his opinion, the current position of "Second Prince's confidant" is like a commodity. If he steps forward as a competitor, perhaps the Yun family will make an impulsive decision?

Just give it a try, maybe you will succeed?

As a result, just as he finished speaking, "Mo Gu"'s eyes suddenly became firm when he looked at the "Second Prince". He exchanged glances with the second son of the Yun family, his face full of struggle. Then, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his head and looked at Zhao Fan with burning eyes.

"If we confess, will His Royal Highness the Second Prince forgive us for what happened?"

Zhao Fan glanced at him with a faint expression on his face and said, "Tell me about it," as if he was narrating an insignificant matter.

"Mo Gu"'s face became paler and paler. Even though he was so humble, the other party was still not satisfied. He was indeed the second prince of Linyue!

Seeing him struggling, the secret guards behind him felt like poking their eyes out and vomiting blood. How could such a crude plan succeed? It was totally unjust!

As expected, the Yun family members inside the foreign country cannot beat Princess Zhuo, and the Yun family outside the foreign country still cannot beat Zhao Fan, the black-hearted man!

They forgot that if Zhao Fan had a black heart, then what was Princess Zhuo?

"Mo Gu" looked at the arrogant man in front of him, knowing that it would be useless to continue the stalemate. He couldn't help but imagine the people of the Yun family bowing down in front of him. He closed his eyes and gritted his teeth.

Let him be exposed, he has really had enough of living in the sun and rain outside the Great Wall for so many years!
