Confined to one's home at the start, studied for ten years, and became a saint and ancestor.

"And the son she had was infuriating too!"

He thought of the message sent back by his subordinates.

Lin Yiran was both annoyed and amused.

The Qu family's rebel army installed a rebel king.

When she first received the news, she wanted to send a skilled assassin to kill him as a warning to others.

But later she realized something was wrong; the rebel king was just a child, and based on the descriptions of those below her, she made a bold guess.

Upon investigation, it turned out to be their own unfortunate child.

He led the rebel army to suppress bandits everywhere and helped the people with all sorts of things, doing everything but forgetting his original job of rebelling.

I don't know why those people listened to him.

But no matter what, the rebel king was his own son, and he hadn't done anything worthwhile.

Lin Yiran then took the opportunity to abandon the suppression of the rebellion and let the front line observe the situation.

This led to a strange stalemate between the two sides.

More than a month has passed, and there has been no further news.

Lin Yiran further instructed the forces that returned from Jialing Pass to begin clearing out the forces that had jumped out and caused trouble after the Yongjiang uprising.

This situation left all the forces in the world completely bewildered.

Especially those who jump out when they see the situation.

They felt they had been tricked by the Suspended Gate and the royal family.

That's ridiculous.

The rebellion had barely gained momentum when they turned their attention to suppressing bandits and even began helping ordinary people.

Even more outrageous is that, faced with such a rebellious army, the imperial court neither quelled the rebellion nor did it bother to stop it; it simply turned a blind eye.

It's like playing house.

Both sides may feel good, but those who jumped out too early are wishing they were dead.

They paid their respects to the ancestors of the Suspended Gate for eighteen generations.

Rebellion is anything but professional.

And what about the imperial court? Why are they only looking at these people trying to take advantage of the chaos? Didn't they see the huge anti-military force they've created?!

Those forces that jumped out to cause trouble lost their composure.

Mu Xiaoya's mentality also collapsed.

Ever since she saw the shadow that time, she felt like she was about to catch up.

Later I realized she was naive.

That kid seems to have suddenly stopped being chivalrous.

She searched in a circular pattern for several days, but found no clues, and eventually just wandered around aimlessly.

Mu Xiaoya herself was dizzy and felt like she had no idea where she was.

If she hadn't seen someone to ask for directions, she might have really gotten lost.

On one occasion, while investigating a mountain stronghold, they got lost and wandered aimlessly through the woods.

There are demons in the mountains and forests, and they wail at night.

Although she is very strong, she has never experienced this before!

They were quite frightened.

They wandered in the woods for several days before finally emerging.

Although she didn't encounter any real danger, it gave her a feeling of having survived a disaster.

And so it was; afterwards, she dared not venture into the forest to look for bandits.

It depends on the situation; sometimes you have to pay people to find clues.

That day, we settled down at a restaurant.

"Let me tell you, the rebel king of Yongjiang is actually just a child of a few years old!"

The conversation at the next table caught Mu Xiaoya's attention.

The main problem is that child; she's very sensitive.

The little brat is driving her crazy.

"How could that be? Rebellion is no joke!"

The people at his table didn't believe it.

"Don't disbelieve me, as you know, I'm in the inkstone business and have come into contact with a big shot in the anti-military movement. He let it slip when he was complaining!"

The person speaking made a solemn vow.

"In that case, it must be that they couldn't reach an agreement and want to find a puppet!"

Some people have made guesses.

“They are definitely not puppets. Do you know why the rebel army likes to suppress bandits and help ordinary civilians now?”

"It's because their anti-king likes it that the big shot complained, and many anti-military generals are very dissatisfied with it, but they are still really doing it. Can a puppet do that?!"

The person who delivered the message explained.

Upon hearing this, Mu Xiaoya stood up abruptly.

I love fighting bandits!

Although it's not 100% certain yet, the behavior is too similar!

Where is Yongjiang?

Mu Xiaoya casually tossed a gold ingot onto the table and asked the person who had given her the information earlier.

Her lips were trembling with excitement, almost unable to contain them.

She felt that this time, she would definitely find that little guy.

She was determined to teach the little brat a lesson: the price of running around was why the flowers were so red.

Her resentment level was off the charts.

After getting the correct answer.

Mu Xiaoya didn't rest either, and rushed towards Yongjiang at top speed.

This time, there absolutely cannot be any more surprises.

Guo Tu actively followed Mu Tianyi's ideas to suppress bandits and do things for the common people.

He was happy doing it.

But on this day, just as he was about to continue urging everyone to work hard...

The arrival of a group of people made him sense that something was wrong.

Several elders from the Suspended Gate arrived, and judging from their expressions, they were not friendly.

Originally, everything here was under the sect leader's control because of his trust.

However, these elders came without informing him beforehand.

And judging from the way they arrived, they're here to cause trouble!

In that case, his ability to flatter will be affected.

"Guo Tu, how dare you! The sect leader sent you to carry out a great rebellion, but you've turned it into a game!"

Do you know how people outside are laughing at us right now?

Sure enough, as soon as they sat down, they began to interrogate them.

"Elders, please let me explain. I was playing a grand strategy to win over the hearts of the people, and it seems to be working extremely well!"

Guo Tu explained.

"Fuck your mother's fart!"

One of the elders slammed his fist on the table in a fit of rage.

"Who wants the hearts of those lowly commoners?"

"Does it matter what they think?!"

The elder then launched into a tirade against Guo Tu.

"Also, by installing a child as a rebel king, is it so you can make things easier for yourself?"

"Guo Tu, the sect leader trusts you to give advice to the sect. You're using it for personal gain. I think you don't want to live anymore."

Another elder went even further, stating it more directly.

"This is my strategy. The sect leader said that everything is up to me."

Guo Tu forced himself to speak.

The main problem is that he himself felt what he did was excessive, so he's really not easy to fool.

"That's because the sect leader trusted you before!"

"Now, even the sect leader feels that his trust has been misplaced. Guo Tu, you are no longer the strategist or the rebel prime minister. All those messy things you arranged must be stopped immediately."

"And that childish little rebel king, let's replace him!"

The elder, who had previously been furious, spoke directly.

A new emperor?!

Guo Tu hadn't expected things to be so serious.

This is going to be trouble.

"No! We can discuss the rest later, but the emperor absolutely cannot be replaced!"

Guo Tu said urgently.

"Nothing is impossible. I've already sent someone to inform that kid!"

The enraged elder spoke casually.

"What nonsense! I am the emperor! You can't just say I'm not!"

Who do you think you are?!

A childish, angry shout suddenly rang out.

"Fuck!"
