Even businessmen who travel between the two countries would rather choose to detour from the sea than pass through the grassland.

"Jiu Rao." Ji Huangyu frowned, "You won't be to Dong Lan..."

Jiurao shook her head: "I have no idea about Donglan. It would be best if I could not interfere with the well water, but something not very good has happened in the He'an County area recently."

Although Donglan has a name east, its geographical location is at the west of the grassland. The vast grassland is simply a barrier that the army cannot cross.

Not to mention that she has no ambitions, even if she has and has strong enough strength to conquer this country, it will be a difficult problem to govern in the future.

So she didn't have the idea of ​​trying to attack Donglan.

If the two countries really want to go to war, they will definitely lose their troops and lose their generals, and they will be thankless, so she is not so idle.

When Ji Huangyu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief at first, just as if it wasn't.

Donglan is a western country and has nothing to do with the four Eastern countries, so it is impossible to raise troops easily.

However, he quickly frowned again: "Something bad happened? What happened?"

"Teenage girls often disappear in several prefectures near He'an County." Jiurao put down the information, her eyes were cold, "As they are all between ten and fifteen years old."

Ji Huangyu's face changed slightly when he heard this.

Do young girls between the ages of ten and fifteen often disappear?

Jiurao picked up the teacup, took a sip casually, and thoughts appeared between her eyebrows and eyes: "This matter is unusual. He'an County belongs to Lingguo. I must find out this matter before I go back."

Ji Huangyu was silent for a moment, "It should be found out clearly, but since the information can be handed over to you, does it mean that the hidden guard has actually started to investigate?"

Jiurao nodded.

"Since the investigation has begun, don't think so much for the time being." Ji Huangyu said, "It is at least 7,000 miles away from He'an County. You can't get there for a while, and you can only wait for news from the hidden guards for the time being."

The journey is long and the news is also very slow to pass on. Fortunately, Xuan Yinwei is decisive and can judge how to do things by himself, and he does not need Jiurao to command and move.

Jiurao nodded and had to temporarily suppress this matter.

In the next three days, the Four Princes' Mansion was calm. Ji Huangyu told anyone not to talk nonsense in front of Jiu Rao, and no one was allowed to disturb Jiu Rao easily.

Even Mo You and the Yun family's legitimate daughters came to ask for a meeting, but were also turned away by Ji Huangyu.

Of course, Jiurao didn't care about these.

But the danger that was hidden under the calm waves did not recede. The storm seemed to only happen overnight, which caught people off guard and made many court officials in southern Xinjiang feel like a nightmare.

On the evening of the sixth day of the April 1st, Ji Huangyu was summoned to the palace to discuss the enthronement ceremony with the King of Southern Xinjiang. The eldest prince Ji Yin brought the imperial guards to surround the forbidden palace on the grounds of clearing the emperor, trapping the King of Southern Xinjiang, six cabinet ministers, and the newly enthroned crown prince Ji Huangyu in the Daqian Palace.

At the same time, a group of black-clothed killers appeared in the Fourth Prince's Mansion. They sneaked into the Tiannu Garden when it was dark to commit an offensive, but were wiped out under the attack of several ghostly Xuanyin Guards.

Twelve assassins and Xuan Yin Guard killed ten, leaving only two lively questions.
