As soon as Huang Chaowei returned, Shen Yi rushed in.

"Your Highness, according to the information we have gathered, this arson case may be related to the Second Prince of Qi!"

Upon hearing these words, Yang Ling frowned instantly. The State of Qi was a country that bordered Liangzhou.

Although its national strength is not considered to be extremely powerful, it is still one of the top powers among the surrounding countries.

I never expected that the State of Qi would dare to interfere in the affairs of Liangzhou.

"Is there any concrete evidence?"

"not yet!"

Shen Yi sighed and said.

"Alright, I understand. You can go now!"

After saying that, he closed the door.

Huang Chaowei's arrival plunged the entire Liangzhou region into unease; since he dared to come, he must have brought troops with him.

Without real ability, it would have been impossible to become a General of the Cavalry.

Although the other party is outwardly subservient to me, they must be plotting revenge.

Yang Ling rubbed her temples, looking utterly exhausted.

"Your Highness, the person you are looking for has been brought!"

The guard's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door, and Yang Ling smiled slightly upon hearing it.

"Bring him in!"

Soon a general clad in armor walked in from outside; this man was Shen Fu.

Shen Fu and Shen Yi had an excellent relationship, and it was only recently that the two of them appeared in front of Yang Ling.

"I have met His Highness!"

Upon seeing Yang Ling, Shen Fu quickly cupped his hands in greeting, a faint smile on his face.

Do you know why I've summoned you here today?

Yang Ling looked at the other person with a smile on her lips, appearing completely harmless.

"This humble servant does not know, but whatever Your Highness commands me to do, this humble servant will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Seeing the other person's serious expression, Yang Ling smiled faintly.

"Alright, actually, the reason I called you here today isn't for anything else, but to ask you for a favor."

Upon hearing this, Shen Fu frowned instantly. He didn't know what Yang Ling wanted to do by calling him over.

"Your Highness, please give your orders. If I can do it, I will certainly not let you down."

Shen Fu quickly cupped his hands in greeting, his face showing a resolute expression.

Yang Ling smiled calmly: "Don't worry, what I asked you to do is very simple. You just need to take my secret letter and make a trip to the barbarian tribes in the west!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Fu was suddenly startled.

The barbarian tribes bordered Liangzhou. The people there were fierce and brutal, and they would start wars at the drop of a hat. Although the Liangzhou army had already dealt them a heavy blow, those people were no pushovers either.

Yang Ling could tell what the other person was thinking just by looking at his expression, but he didn't care about that.

"Don't worry, the Right Wise King has already submitted to me. He still remembers the pain and will definitely not disobey me."

Yang Ling didn't have any other intentions. He needed to find outside help. Huang Chaowei had an army of 300,000, while he himself had less than 100,000 troops.

Although he was well-equipped, he didn't want to start a war with Huang Chaowei so early.

Let's contact those barbarian tribes again and have them cause trouble on the border, so that General Huang Chaowei can handle it.

Upon hearing this, Shen Fu immediately cupped his hands in greeting, "In that case, Your Highness, please rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter well."

Yang Ling nodded and waved for the other party to leave.

Meanwhile, Huang Chaowei and Chen Ming exploded when they returned to the mansion.

"What face or right does a fallen ninth prince have to say such things to this general!"

Enraged, Huang Chaowei smashed all the teaware on the table in front of him, leaving Chen Ming feeling helpless.

"General, please don't be angry. The Ninth Prince is already an unshakeable force in Liangzhou. We'd better just listen to him."

Chen Ming dared not disobey in the slightest, after all, the Ninth Prince's methods were simply too advanced, and they had no way to deal with them at all.

Huang Chaowei became even angrier after hearing Chen Ming's words. He never expected Chen Ming to say such a thing.

"What...what do you mean by this? Are you really willing to live under the thumb of that Ninth Prince?"

Huang Chaowei now understands that bringing down Yang Ling in Liangzhou is not so simple.

However, if Yang Ling wants to ride on his head to defecate and urinate, she'll have to ask for his consent first!

Chen Ming sighed and said, "I witnessed the Ninth Prince's methods when I first came to Liangzhou. After so much fighting, I no longer have the courage I had back then."

He must have been through a lot, otherwise he wouldn't have said something like that.

Upon hearing this, Huang Chaowei instantly calmed down and looked at Chen Ming with a helpless expression.

"Rest assured, now that I have come to Liangzhou, I will certainly do my part to share His Majesty's burdens."

As he spoke, a cold glint appeared in Huang Chaowei's eyes.

Since Yang Ling treated him this way, he shouldn't blame Yang Ling for being ruthless.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ming quickly cupped his hands in greeting: "I understand what the general means."

The two exchanged a glance and said nothing more.

In the Liangzhou Prince's Palace, Yang Ling sat on the roof, looking at the city lights, and a strange sadness welled up in his heart.

I was doing my research perfectly fine, but suddenly I found myself transported to this place.

She transmigrated into the body of a ninth prince who had no temper. Now, after doing so much, she finally had a foothold, but she felt a faint sense of weariness in her heart.

"Can I really build a powerful empire using modern technology?"

Yang Ling looked somewhat lost at this moment; he wasn't actually very confident.

After all, such advanced technology shouldn't exist in this era.

But what can he do now? Things have come to this, and he can only grit his teeth and go for it.

"Your Highness, General Huang requests an audience!"

The guard's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door. Yang Ling glanced down, then jumped down.

"Let him in!"

Not long after, Huang Chaowei walked in from outside. Seeing the faint smile on his face, Yang Ling sat down in the main seat.

"What business does General Huang have with me so late at night?"

The moment Huang Chaowei saw Yang Ling, he instantly reverted to his submissive demeanor and quickly cupped his hands in greeting.

"Your Highness is too kind. This humble general has come simply to pay his respects to Your Highness."

As soon as Yang Ling uttered these polite words, he sneered inwardly. Would this guy really be so kind as to come and pay his respects?

Seeing the lewd smile on the other person's lips and his shifty eyes scanning her up and down, Yang Ling felt a chill run down her spine.
