“Let’s wait until he goes to Lizhou. We’ll put the things in one place and ask him to bring more people he trusts to securely ship them. His subordinate, Butler Fan, had suppressed the matter of heavy taxes. He had suffered a loss because of Butler Fan. As the saying goes, a fall into a pit, is a gain in one’s wits. Once we ask him to bring trusted people, he will understand what to do. Unless he and his brother completely trusted people who would never betray them, he would not bring any of them to get those things.”

“Yes.” Xue Yan lightly responded, having no objections.

Jiang Yue whispered again, “Besides, Shi Yuan has sent troop after troop of iron cavalry here. He has no intention of keeping it a secret for long. Qiu Pusheng must have been captured. There’s nothing to worry about. We don’t have to worry about a war here. And since he managed to control Qiu Pusheng so quickly, it’s obvious that Shi Yuan had already been prepared for Qiu Pusheng. However, it was Butler Fan who had made a mistake. If Butler Fan had not suppressed the heavy taxes in Lizhou, everything would have been under Shi Yuan’s control. It was no wonder that he could unify the world. However, no matter how strong a person is, he can’t control the world alone. He needs the people under him to be loyal. As long as one person chooses to betray him, everything will become more complicated. Moreover, human nature is complicated to begin with. It can make most people in the world loyal to death, but since ancient times, no matter which world, there has never been a person who can make everyone in the world loyal to death.”

“You’re right.” Xue Yan also deeply agreed.

Then, Jiang Yue yawned.

“Go to sleep,” Xue Yan said softly.

“Soon.” Jiang Yue replied very softly. She immediately closed her eyes and then fell asleep.

If she was next to someone else, she wouldn’t have any sense of security, but next to her was Xue Yan. After so many years, she had unknowingly developed a very strong sense of security towards Xue Yan.

The next day, Shi Che and his four followers left on horseback. Before they left, one of his followers quietly came to Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s side and put something on their horse before riding away.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan had woken up long ago. They wanted to see what this attendant was doing, so they did not open their eyes. When they heard the sound of horse hooves leaving, they opened their eyes and saw a silver ingot placed beside them.

It was obvious that Shi Che wanted to thank them for eating their beef noodles and spiced beef last night.

It was enough to show Shi Che’s character. He never took anything from the commoners for free.

Even if they were dressed well and didn’t lack money, Shi Che still wanted to thank them. That was why he left a silver ingot to express his gratitude.

Instead of making things awkward, he secretly gave them the money when they were still asleep, and not when they were still awake last night. He was afraid that they would not want it, which showed Shi Che’s character even more.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not in a hurry to follow him. After all, they did not intend to give the things in the secret room to Shi Che directly.

They didn’t want Shi Che to know that they were the ones who had given him those items. They would expose themselves. Moreover, Shi Che would be in Lizhou for a month or even a few months before he would return to the capital. After all, it was such a big matter, so they were naturally in no hurry to follow him.

Since Qiu Pusheng was under control, even if Fan Jianxi had no solid evidence, Qiu Pusheng would have some evidence.

If he did not have any evidence, Shi Yuan would not have rashly sent batches of iron cavalry to suppress the officials in Lizhou.
