Shopkeeper Luo didn't go to the auction alone. He brought two attendants with him. At this moment, he was already sitting in a private room on the second floor of Myriad Merchant Hall's largest auction hall.
He was waiting for the auction to end, before everyone dispersed, to reveal his identity and publicly announce the termination of his partnership with Myriad Merchant Hall. From then on, Kangan Bank would no longer accept any loans from the auction hall's guests.
Just this one sentence was enough for everyone to make all sorts of guesses. There was no need for further explanation. And the more guesses there were, the more ridiculous they were, and the greater the blow to Myriad Merchant Hall.
In the business world, there was no such thing as offering help in a time of need. It was either icing on the cake, or adding insult to injury.
Looking at the heated scene below, Shopkeeper Luo remained calm and waited patiently. The auction had ended, and everyone was cheering for the winner.
Shopkeeper Luo rubbed his hands together, then finally stood up to leave. Unexpectedly, someone pressed down on his shoulder from behind.
Shopkeeper Luo was shocked. He turned around and saw his two attendants kneeling. The man pressing down on his shoulder was masked. His brows were stern, but he didn't lose his heroic spirit.
"Go back."
The man left these two words, then turned and left, quickly disappearing from sight.
Shopkeeper Luo immediately recognized his master's voice. Although he was puzzled, he didn't dare delay and immediately rushed back with his two attendants.
When Long Fei Ye returned to East Origin Hall, Han Yunxi and the others were all anxiously waiting for him. Since Long Feiye had shown up in person, who could possibly catch up to his speed? If Gu Beiyue had recovered his Shadow Art, then he could. But Gu and Long Fei Ye still hadn't found the Medicinal Pills.
The secret letter had been taken away by Long Fei Ye. They still didn't know what Ning Cheng wrote in the letter to Shopkeeper Luo, or why Long Fei Ye was in such a hurry to stop Shopkeeper Luo.
However, since Long Fei Ye had stopped Shopkeeper Luo, it meant that the situation in Northern Li had taken a turn for the better. The situation wasn't serious enough for Kangan Bank to step in.
Seeing that Long Fei Ye had returned, Han Yunxi quickly asked, "Did you stop him?"
"Your Highness, what happened in Northern Li?" Gu Beiyue asked anxiously.
"I did."
Long Fei Ye took off his mask and handed the secret letter to Han Yunxi. Gu Beiyue, Gu, and Tang Li all came over. When they read the contents of the secret letter, they were all equally shocked! Other than shock, there was still more shock.
Ning Cheng had written everything clearly. Jun Yi Xie's true identity, the truth of the civil war in the Great Qin Empire, his so-called cooperation with Jun Yi Xie, the military pay that Jun Yi Xie received and the plan to send troops to Northern Li, the kidnapping of Mu Ling 'er and Ning Jing, and the sisterly relationship between Bai Yuqiao and Su Xiaoyu. Everything was explained clearly.
Ning Cheng's letter was written to Shopkeeper Luo, asking him to pass the message to Long Fei Ye. He also cautiously asked Shopkeeper Luo to confirm whether the seal of the letter had been opened a second time before replying.
After reading the letter, everyone was shocked and silent. There were too many things, each more unexpected than the last. Everyone needed time to digest it.
"Long Fei Ye, this letter hasn't been opened, right?" Han Yunxi quickly asked.
"No, I just read it." Long Fei Ye was very sure.
After Han Yunxi said this, she fell silent again. She stared blankly at the secret letter, not knowing what to say.
Ning Cheng didn't disappoint her!
Even if he misunderstood her, he still persisted.
Not only did Ning Cheng not collude with Jun Yi Xie, but he also obtained so much truth from Jun Yi Xie and obtained such a good opportunity!
Han Yunxi looked at Long Fei Ye and couldn't help but say, "We were right!"
The civil war in the Great Qin Empire was really just a misunderstanding. It was really instigated by the Wind and Black Clans. Their suspicions were right! Their actions at Hundred Poisons Sect were also right!
It didn't matter if Bai Yanqing didn't admit it, and it didn't matter if Jun Yi Xie didn't admit it in front of everyone! Because, Ning Cheng admitting it was enough!
If Ning Cheng said this matter, who would suspect him?
The Di Clan wouldn't and the East Qin people wouldn't have a reason to suspect him!
With Ning Cheng's status and position, everyone in the world would believe him!
Long Fei Ye lowered his eyes and didn't say anything. In his heart, he was planning on finding Bai Yanqing to clearly understand the true reason behind the civil war in the Great Qin Empire. He never thought that this secret would be known by Ning Cheng first.
Ning Cheng's hatred towards East Qin was no less than his hatred towards Western Qin.
At this time, Tang Li suddenly said, "Big brother, can that brat Ning Cheng be trusted? Why should we believe him! If this is his trap, wouldn't we have been played? "
"Since he sent a letter to shopkeeper Luo, it means that Ning Jing believes him! Otherwise, she wouldn't have told him these secrets! "Han Yunxi immediately refuted.
She had absolute confidence in Ning Jing, so she had told everything to Ning Jing, including the true relationship between Tang Li and Long Fei Ye, as well as the matter of Kangan Private Bank.
"Tang Li, Ning Jing is pregnant with your child! You have to believe in her judgement! "Han Yunxi honestly said.
Ning Jing's hope towards Eastern and Western Qin was not inferior to hers.
When Han Yunxi wasn't around and Ning Jing was mentioned, Tang Li withered. If it was before, although he was very fond of Ning Jing, he would still be very vigilant when it came to important matters. However, since he knew that Ning Jing was pregnant, he didn't have any immunity towards Ning Jing.
As long as it was related to Ning Jing, he would believe it.
"If this is a trap, it won't fool us for long. It's unnecessary. Ning Cheng isn't that stupid, "Gu Beiyue seriously said.
Everyone looked towards Long Fei Ye. It was useless for Han Yunxi and Gu Beiyue to believe. The key was for Long Fei Ye to believe. This was because Ning Cheng's letter could be considered a rescue letter. He wanted Long Fei Ye to help him, cooperate with him, and join forces with him.
Everyone waited.
Other than being nice to Han Yunxi, Long Fei Ye had always been hostile towards the entire Western Qin camp, especially towards Ning Cheng.
He had enough power to deal with the Di Clan, and he also had enough strength to deal with Jun Yi Xie and the Northern Dynasties Emperors. He didn't have to work with the Di Clan.
All he needed was time.
Han Yunxi hesitated for a moment. Just as she was about to speak, Long Fei Ye muttered to himself, "The Black Clan … Jun Yi Xie, that brat, really hid it well!"
"Let's join forces with Ning Cheng. Let him fight with the Northern Dynasties Emperors!" Han Yunxi quickly agreed.
Seeing that things were going well, Gu Beiyue also quickly said, "Fortunately, Your Highness stopped them in time. Otherwise …"
Otherwise, once Kangan Private Bank and Myriad Merchant Hall canceled their cooperation, Jun Yi Xie wouldn't be able to get military pay from Ning Cheng. Not only would Ning Cheng be in danger, the Di Clan would be in danger, even Mu Ling 'er and Ning Jing would be in great danger!
Now, all of their safety was tied to the same boat. Whether this boat would capsize or not, it was up to Long Fei Ye to decide.
As for Long Fei Ye, he had already made up his mind when he chose to stop them at the first moment.
"Long Fei Ye, whether it's East Qin or Western Qin, let's find Bai Yanqing and Jun Yi Xie to settle the debt of the Great Qin Empire!" Han Yunxi said.
Finally, Long Fei Ye nodded and said, "Spring next year is a good time."
If their alliance with Ning Cheng succeeded, they could hide it from Jun Yi Xie and let Jun Yi Xie and the Northern Dynasties Emperors fight for three months. When spring comes next year, the Eastern and Western Qin armies would be able to march north. "Then, they would definitely be able to defeat both Jun Yi Xie and the Northern Dynasties Emperors.
By that time, the Di Clan would have already tamed those thirty thousand warhorses. They would use those thirty thousand warhorses as the vanguard and give Jun Yi Xie a good slap in the face.
"Mm, it's a good time!" Han Yunxi was overjoyed. Gu Beiyue's anxious heart also relaxed.
If not for Ning Cheng's plan to deal with Jun Yi Xie and the hostages in Skyriver City, Gu Beiyue was worried that Long Fei Ye would refuse to cooperate with Ning Cheng.
"Three months … that's enough time to look for the Fire and Metal of Ten-Thousand Poisons," Gu muttered to himself.
If Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi didn't deal with the Di Clan, then the matter of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion and the Poison Sect would naturally come first.
"Alright!" Long Fei Ye gave an affirmative answer.
He and the Di Clan still had to put on a show or two. Otherwise, with Jun Yi Xie's personality, he might not trust Ning Cheng. As for the small matters, he could leave them to his subordinates. There was no need for him and Han Yunxi to show their faces.
He and Han Yunxi still had to deal with Bai Yanqing. Unless absolutely necessary, Long Fei Ye wouldn't expose their whereabouts.
"Brother, does that mean I won't be able to see Ning Jing until next spring?" Tang Li was anxious.
After Gu confirmed that Mu Ling 'er wasn't in any danger, he basically stopped caring about her.
Long Feiye glanced at him. "Your wife's uncle will take good care of his nephew. You better behave yourself!"
If Tang Li tried to force his way in, he would definitely fall into a trap. At this time, he didn't want anyone to provoke Jun Yi Xie.
When next spring came and he personally led his troops to fight, he would definitely settle all his old debts with Jun Yi Xie!
Han Yunxi, on the other hand, was worried about Mu Ling 'er and Su Xiaoyu. The fact that Su Xiaoyu was Bai Yuqiao's little sister was really out of her expectations. But she couldn't be impulsive.
Although they didn't need Ning Cheng to tell them that Mu Ling 'er and Ning Jing had been kidnapped and taken to Tianhe City, Jun Yi Xie didn't know about the situation!
Jun Yi Xie must be feeling smug right now, thinking that they didn't know about Mu Ling 'er and Su Xiaoyu's whereabouts. The more this was the case, the more they wanted Jun Yi Xie to feel smug! It would be easier for Ning Cheng to do things on his side without arousing suspicion.
Thanks to Ning Cheng's timely secret letter, a trade war and a war had been silently avoided.
Han Yunxi wasn't stupid enough to use Ning Cheng's letter to convince Myriad Merchant Hall's Council of Elders. In any case, without Ning Cheng's orders, no matter how restless the Di Clan was, no one would dare to make a move.
As long as they didn't make a move, everything would be safe. Ning Cheng's banknotes would definitely flow to Myriad Merchant Hall. Or perhaps, Ning Cheng would find a way to send a secret letter to Myriad Merchant Hall. At that time, Myriad Merchant Hall's elders would come to find her to take command of the army and discuss how to cooperate with the East Qin army.
Waiting was what they needed to do now.
While they waited, they couldn't be idle. There was the matter of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion, the Poison Sect, and her dual cultivation with Long Fei Ye. Nothing could be delayed.
Really, they were very busy …
Han Yunxi was about to put the letter away when Long Fei Ye inadvertently caught sight of a line of words on the back of the letter.
He frowned and asked, "What's that?"
Han Yunxi flipped it over and froze …
