The daughter of a noble family is reborn, and she is doted on by her godmother.

Yun Yuke and Yuan Chen were woken up by noise the next day.

Hotels outside the city don't have much soundproofing, so finding a relatively private room is quite difficult.

Yun Yuan and his companion didn't linger. Since they had been woken up, they quickly packed up and prepared to leave.

On their way out, they ran into those Uro merchants again.

The three of them had stayed an extra day because of the heavy rain, so they were making a lot of noise as they packed their things.

These people were a little embarrassed when they realized they had made too much noise.

"I'm sorry, we brought a lot of stuff. The rain just stopped this morning, so we were thinking of packing up as soon as possible." The eldest of the three Uro merchants looked apologetic when he saw Yun Yuke.

“It’s okay, brother,” Yun Yuke quickly waved her hand, “We’re light sleepers, it’s fine.”

Perhaps this was an opportunity. Yun Yuke's eyes lit up, and she asked, "What kind of business are you doing, gentlemen? You seem to be in a hurry. You've brought a lot of things."

"Oh, to be honest, we are merchants from Uro. Something happened at home, and we can no longer stay outside. Our families need us to take care of them."

“That’s true. When you’re doing business away from home, it’s all for your family, isn’t it?” Yun Yuke replied.

“In Uro, women are not allowed to show their faces in public, so they are not free in this respect.” Yun Yuke did not deliberately hide her identity, which the older merchants could naturally see.

"Oh dear, you say that? Hahaha." Yun Yuke smiled but didn't say anything.

"Girl, don't be so polite. We've been in Changhong for quite a while now and have seen many women take on important roles. I'm not a conservative person, and I quite approve of them."

Yun Yuke chatted with the other person intermittently, but she still had some things on her mind and wanted to find out what had happened to Wuluo from the other person's words.

"Hey brother, does Wuluo welcome merchants from Changhong to run businesses there? To be honest, I mainly deal in fabrics and jewelry, and now that it's grown a bit, I'm thinking of exploring some new avenues."

After the two had finished their conversation, Yun Yuke steered the topic to Wu Luo.

"Oh, I'm sorry, we haven't been home in a long time, so it's hard to say what's going on." The older Uro merchant didn't seem to be lying, and shook his head.

At the same time, he called his son over, "Eldest son, you just went back. What do you think of the jewelry and fabrics in Wuluo now?"

"Well, to be honest, I feel that Changhong is more fashionable. I remember when I went back last time, my sister was wearing something that looked like it did at Changhong a year ago."

The young Uro merchant was quite honest; you could tell from his eyes that he was probably right.

"However, it's hard to say exactly what's going on now, since we haven't been back for quite some time," the young businessman added.

"We understand. Hehe, if we really have the chance to go to Uro, I wonder if you guys still have shops there? How about we cooperate?"

"Oh dear, this..."

Seeing that the others didn't look too good, Yun Yuke quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Maybe Uro doesn't really welcome a businesswoman like me. I guess there's nothing I can do about it."

"Young lady, we actually don't really recommend you do business in Uru. Uru is too chaotic there."

"Hey, I heard before that the young emperor in Uro just recently ascended the throne, right?"

"Yes, but now that the Senate is in power, those people are a bit rigid, unlike Changhong, which has policies that help and encourage merchants."

Just as Marquis Ankang had said, the members of the Senate did not get along well and had disputes with each other.

"The Senate? What's the Senate like? It does seem quite different from what we at Changhong are talking about."

Several Uro merchants briefly explained the situation, which was roughly an administrative method of discussion and consultation. Of course, the main reason was that the young emperor's ascension to the throne made the Senate bear more responsibility.

"Once the young emperor assumes full power, the Senate will step down from the political stage."

Upon hearing this, Yun Yuke couldn't help but shake her head inwardly. How could that be? For some people, power is like ants to honey—something they can't shake off no matter what.

Of course, Yun Yuke didn't say these words out loud.

"We're just ordinary people, we can't concern ourselves with such big things. Sigh, just being alive is enough."

After the Uro merchants finished packing, the three of them left with their servants.

Yun Yuke had learned a lot about the background situation and had acquired a considerable amount of information.

Yuan Chen didn't join in the chat earlier; he waited until the others finished talking before meeting up with Yun Yuke.

"What's wrong, Sister Yun? Did you find out something?" Yuan Chen never questioned Yun Yuke's decisions, after all, Yun Yuke was very perceptive in many things and could see many special things.

Whether it's business opportunities or judgments on various matters, the entire Yun family trusts Yun Yuke's judgment.

“Actually, I still think there’s something strange about these merchants from Uro,” Yun Yuke frowned.

"Businessmen prioritize profit, and that's true for both of us. Based on our previous experience, that's certainly the case in Uro as well, isn't it?"

"Yes, that's how the Uro merchants next to the shops in our city are. They're shrewd and never let themselves be taken advantage of."

"But these people are willing to sell their goods at half price. You heard what they were discussing; it seems they really need to get the money back as soon as possible."

"So it's just something that happened in their own family?" Yuan Chen still didn't see anything wrong with it.

"Yes, you didn't see it from inside the room, but I could sense that these merchants had some dissatisfaction when they talked about Uro's Senate. That dissatisfaction quickly disappeared, and I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't been watching them."

“Even if what you say is right, Sister Yun, what does it have to do with us? Do we need to make any preparations in advance?” Yuan Chen pressed.

"If I had to guess, the worst guess would be that Uro has turned from internal strife into external conflict, and in order to divert attention from its internal problems, it has launched a war against Changhong."

"Sister Yun, aren't you thinking too tragically? Too pessimistically?" Yuan Chen didn't quite agree. The past few years had been peaceful, and there were alliances between the countries, so there shouldn't be any need to start a war.

"Hmm... I don't know why... I just have a feeling that something like this might happen." Yun Yuke kept thinking about this possibility.

"Okay, Chen, let's not go home yet. I want to go to Cangnan Town to check on the situation."

Cangnan Town is an ordinary market town near Changgan. Due to its advantageous geographical location, it attracts many merchants.

“Let’s go over there and take a look. I want to see what’s going on with the other Uro merchants in that market. And you know how well-informed that market is, let’s ask around and see if we can find any information about Uro.”

The two acted immediately, riding their horses straight to Cangnan Town.

Unfortunately, things seem to be normal in Cangnan.

The only thing worth mentioning is that as soon as we entered the city, we saw that the garrison near Cangnan had decided to hold a military exercise in three days and would close the official road for a period of time.

Seeing this situation, the two decided not to stay any longer and would spend the night in Cangnan before heading back the next day.

"Yuelai Inn? Sister Yun, is this the inn you're looking for?"

"Well, when I came here last time, I found out a lot of information about this inn. They say the waiters here are well-informed, so I'd like to try my luck."

"So what kind of intelligence do we need?"
