Li De left Windy City with his people on the flying dragon exclusive to the royal family.
The onlookers in front of the Internal Affairs Office also dispersed, pointing and pointing as they left, mostly out of dissatisfaction with Kay.
In the city lord's mansion, Kaya was sitting on the recliner with her eyes closed, while Kay was sitting on the tea table indignantly, drinking tea cup after cup. The tea that was supposed to clear away the heat could not suppress the anger in his heart. Kai did not dare to show it to his brother, so he could only sigh persistently.
After a while, Kaia narrowed her eyes and asked:
"Unconvinced?"
Kai put down the teacup in his hand, brewed for a while, and answered in a swallowed voice:
"No. Since Brother Kaiya did this, he must have a reason."
Kaya said calmly:
"You have a new grudge against Li De, and I still have an old grudge against him. If possible, I wish he could die here. The little city lord of Yuxi City, according to my temperament, find a crime and kill him first , and explain to all parties later on. Lord Yunyang does not recognize his son, and Yunhai and him are only temporary friends, and it will not take much effort to calm down by then."
Kay said sullenly:
"I know, isn't it because he is the special envoy of the royal family?"
Kaia shook her head.
Kai looked at his brother suspiciously, and after a long time, Kai sighed and said:
"The letter he showed me was a letter from the lord of Xiqin to the king."
Kay sat up from the chair all of a sudden, and said in shock:
"West Qin, the number one territory in the world? Why did the West Qin territory write a letter to the king? No, why did the letter fall into his hands? What's going on..."
Kaya said slowly:
"Some time ago, Lord Lingwu defeated the invasion of giants and returned triumphantly. The news spread throughout Eternal Heaven."
Kay nodded, he knew the news.
Kaia continued:
"Lingwu lord's 80,000 iron cavalry wanted to go south. It's not a day or two. Their ancestors had enmity with the previous kings. The family lived in the extremely cold place in the north and accumulated huge strength. On the contrary, the royal family followed the previous paragraph. Time's dragon clan invaded, and its strength has been greatly reduced, and it can no longer carry Lingwu to the south."
Kai thought for a while, and asked tentatively:
"The royal family plans to find foreign aid?"
Kaya nodded:
"Not only is the royal family planning to find foreign aid, but there are also territories that are willing to help them. Xiqin and Nanchu also have enmity, and they don't want Lord Lingwu to go south prematurely. When I received the news of Lord Lingwu's triumphant return, I It is guessed that one of these two families will support the royal family, this is the general trend of the world, and no one can change it."
Kai frowned, lost in thought.
Kaiya glanced at her younger brother and sighed again:
"The only problem is that the royal family cares about face. Right now, the royal family still governs all the territories. They can't slap themselves in the face and openly form an alliance with a certain territory. In this case, both parties need to be tacit to each other, and It is necessary to use a small matter to implicitly announce the fact of joining forces to the world—do you understand?"
Kay nodded.
Kaia sighed again and said:
"The Ji Pingtian family is considered dead, and they delivered it to their door. Some time ago, they sold a batch of weapons to Xiqin, but they were found to be substandard. It happened that the buyer was somewhat related to the lord of Xiqin, and the matter went all the way to the lord of Xiqin. There. Sleepy met the pillow. The lord of Xiqin intended to take the Yoshihirata family as a sacrifice, but the fact that he was cheated when he bought something was not suitable for publicity, so he dug forward and caused a commotion in the forging world at that time. The Liushi incident was found out, and under the banner of upholding justice, he entrusted the royal family to help him investigate this case."
Kai said softly:
"The royal family has never accepted such a commission before."
Kaya said lightly:
"The royal family is proud. If other lords ask you to send envoys to investigate the case, you should obediently do so. Wouldn't you become a servant doing miscellaneous work? So this time I made an exception to help the lord of Xiqin investigate this case. In the eyes of those who are interested, it is enough to prove the fact that the two have joined forces. Yes. This alliance must be a disadvantage for the royal family. It won’t be long before some decrees beneficial to the Western Qin Dynasty will be promulgated. There is still a tigress lying in the north, and the south is planning to coerce the emperor to order the princes. This is also helpless for the royal family It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. If the lord of West Qin does not help, Bai Yi Qingxiang cannot last long alone. Moreover, this entrustment has the nature of justice, and it is not too shameful for the royal family to accept it. The lord of West Qin is considered a gift to the royal family. It saves a bit of face. Generally speaking, one is willing to hit and the other is willing to suffer, and those who hit people didn't use too much force."
Kai shivered, and asked in a trembling voice:
"Then if we forcibly convict Liu Shi today, wouldn't it be..."
Kaiya turned her head, glanced at her younger brother, slightly opened her squinted eyes, and said seriously:
"I can't be the son of Yunyang, and you will lose your head in all likelihood! You know what kind of person your father is. If you can use the two of us to appease the anger of the Lord of West Qin, he will do so without hesitation. Go up This time I offended Lord Lingwu for a small matter, and I was imprisoned for a long time, and all the horses in my hand were lost. If the two of us go against the general trend of the world this time, we will ruin the alliance between Xiqin and the royal family. Things, consequences... think about it for yourself."
Kai felt that his back was drenched in cold sweat, swallowed a mouthful of saliva with a grunt, and the resentment towards his brother disappeared in an instant.
It's just that the unwillingness and resentment in his heart couldn't dissipate quickly. Since Xiqin and the royal family couldn't afford to offend, Kai decided to change his target.
Kay thought for a while, leaned over to Kaia's side, and said in a low voice:
"The lord of Yuxi City, Li De... why him?"
Kaya frowned:
"This is also a question that I can't figure out. There are two possibilities. The first one is because Liu Shi happened to be in Yuxi City when the Lord of West Qin gave the order. He thought Liu Shi belonged to Li De, so he simply asked Li De to investigate; The second type... is when the West Qin lord and the royal family have not found a suitable matter, Li De facilitated this matter."
He thought for a while, slowly loosened his brows, and said:
"No... It should be the first one. We checked Lide's background. He grew up in Yunyang since he was a child, and he hasn't got enough face to talk to the Lord of West Qin."
Kai breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily:
"Lucky for him."
Kaiya glanced at her younger brother, restored the original smile on her face, and said:
"Don't worry, even if there is no today's incident, I don't intend to let him continue to develop steadily. Next month, I will call Yunyang Shizi Liyi, and Qiming Shizi Nuolun. If necessary, I will also notify Zhaochen’s city lord, Fangyuan. Although King Huai’s territory and Qiming’s territory are not adjacent to Yunyang, it’s not a problem to support Liyi with some military supplies in private, and then send some experts from the guards to him. The family is about to move, if the north and the east exert pressure at the same time, even if the god is alive, he will obediently lead his neck and be killed."
Kaiya squinted her eyes, looked at the ceiling, and said with a sneer:
"And don't forget, some people are happy and some are sad. If Li De helps the royal family and Xiqin, be prepared to bear the wrath from Lingwu."
