"Sixth brother, do you think that the Thirteenth Prince would really choose to send that palace maid out so openly in the daytime?" The Eighth Prince, Prince Jing, Li Xingfeng, looked solemnly at the Sixth Prince, Li Xingmin, and asked with suspicion on his face.

You know, transporting palace maids should be done in a low-key manner to avoid unnecessary trouble. After all, it's not something worth publicizing, and it might even attract the attention of other princes.

However, Li Xingyun chose to do the opposite. Not only did he choose to transport the palace maids in broad daylight, he also used a horse-drawn carriage in such a conspicuous way. This is really incredible.

"I don't know either." Li Xingmin frowned slightly and answered thoughtfully, "Logically, he shouldn't act like this. But since there are rumors like this, we'd better be cautious."

Although Li Xingmin also felt that this approach was somewhat unreasonable, he had to take the source of the information seriously. After all, this news was not groundless and had a certain degree of credibility.

"Hehe... You take this little bit of news so seriously. Could it be news from above?" At this moment, the third prince Li Xingfan suddenly sneered and mocked him without any concealment.

His words revealed his disdain for Li Xingmin and Li Xingfeng, as if he was very surprised that they believed the news so easily.

Li Xingmin and Li Xingfeng's expressions changed slightly after hearing Li Xingfan's words. They knew in their hearts that the "above" Li Xingfan was referring to was probably only that person.

"Hehe... Third brother, are you here to avenge what happened to Old Thirteen last time?" Li Xingfeng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a playful smile, and started to change the subject tentatively.

Li Xingfan had already lost his chance to fight. In the eyes of others, he was like a mad dog, biting whoever he caught. Fighting with such a person was really not worth the loss!

"Hmph!" Li Xingfan snorted coldly, his face extremely gloomy. His eyes were like a poisonous snake, staring at Li Xingyun's carriage. The viciousness in his eyes made people shudder.

At this moment, the carriage had just been driving on Xuanwu Street for less than five minutes when suddenly, a group of Jinyiwei dressed in Feiyu uniforms rushed over like a tide and quickly stopped the carriage.

"Look, the person above has taken the first step. The leader seems to be the commander-in-chief of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Sun Jihai?" Li Xingfeng had sharp eyes and recognized the people who intercepted Li Xingyun's carriage at a glance. He quickly lowered his voice and whispered to the two people beside him.

"How dare you! You dare to stop His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin's carriage? Get out of here!" Ye Xian roared, his voice deafening and resonant like thunder. He stood before the carriage, calming his mind as his aura suddenly erupted. The terrifying pressure of the Transcendence Realm surged like a torrent, instantly sweeping towards the Jinyiwei.

This pressure was like a mountain crushing an egg, unstoppable. The Jinyiwei were like candles in the wind before this powerful force, powerless to fight back. They were repeatedly pushed back by this pressure, and some even fell to the ground, in a state of disarray.

However, facing his former boss, Sun Jihai, Ye Xian showed no hesitation or reluctance. His eyes were cold and firm, as if these people were nothing more than a group of insignificant ants in his eyes.

The terrifying pressure was suffocating, and the Jinyiwei screamed in fear under this powerful pressure. They tried desperately to steady themselves, but found that their legs were like nails, unable to move at all.

This pressure was so terrifying that it was like an insurmountable mountain standing in front of these Jinyiwei, making them afraid.

Finally, after retreating more than ten steps, the Jinyiwei barely managed to stabilize their position. They were breathing heavily, with cold sweat on their foreheads, obviously frightened.

And this was the result of County Master Ye showing mercy. If he had used all his strength, these people would have been crushed into pieces by this terrifying pressure, leaving not even a trace of residue.

"Here they come! You bastard, just wait! I let you get so arrogant, and now you're about to be exposed!" Qing Meng heard the commotion outside and a smug smile immediately appeared on her lips. Her eyes were full of teasing and mockery, and she looked directly at Li Xingyun, as if she wanted to see a hint of panic on his face.

However, to Qing Meng's disappointment, Li Xingyun's expression remained calm, as if the commotion outside had nothing to do with him. He didn't even raise his eyelids, as if he hadn't heard anything outside at all.

This made Qing Meng feel a little unhappy. She had originally expected to see Li Xingyun panic. But now, Li Xingyun's calmness completely thwarted her plan, which made her feel very upset.

"In compliance with His Majesty's decree, all civilians and nobles must be interrogated. Does the King of Qin wish to disobey the decree?" Sun Jihai's face was gloomy, and he unabashedly released his powerful true energy to resist the suffocating pressure of Ye County that was like a mountain pressing down on everyone.

His voice was cold and stern, revealing an unquestionable majesty. This imperial edict was his sword of authority, and no one could disobey it.

Facing Sun Jihai's threat, Li Xingyun remained remarkably calm. A subtle smile rose from his lips as he softly called out, "Ye County!"

These two words echoed in the air like a morning bell and an evening drum. Everyone's eyes were focused on Ye Xian, who remained calm and unfazed, facing Sun Jihai's innate energy without a care in the world.

"Hmph!" Upon receiving Li Xingyun's order, Ye Xian snorted coldly. Although the snort was not loud, it resounded like thunder in everyone's ears. Then, his aura suddenly disappeared.

"Look, there's a conflict! Old Thirteen might be exposed!" Li Xingfeng stood aside, watching the scene, a flicker of excitement in his eyes. He seemed to be full of anticipation for this conflict, as if he had already foreseen the exciting scene that might happen next.

However, unlike Li Xingfeng's excitement, Li Xingmin remained remarkably calm. He frowned, contemplating the situation before him, and thoughtfully analyzed, "It's not that simple. Since Old Thirteen dared to confront Sun Jihai so openly, he must have made considerable preparations. And don't forget, Sun Jihai was once Big Brother's man, and Old Thirteen was very close to Big Brother."

Although Li Xingmin didn't elaborate, everyone knew what he meant. The relationship between Sun Jihai and the King of Qin was complicated, and the truth behind this conflict was probably far more complicated than it seemed.
