Seeing Jiang Xiawei smile, Jiang Qiulu knew.
The rift between him and her has been completely eliminated.
However, we may have to face the calculations of the Western Region Dynasty next.
After all, he and Prince Fang Dingkun had completely developed hatred.
Moreover, Jiang Qiulu also heard about it.
The Emperor of the Western Regions, Fang Tianzhen, was a very protective person.
But it is precisely this that created the character Fang Dingkun.
"Okay, let's go back quickly."
"From now on, this person will never appear in front of you again." Jiang Qiulu said.
"Then, I take my leave." Jiang Xiawei bowed and then withdrew.
But as soon as Jiang Xiawei left, Jiang Qiulu slumped down on the chair.
"Your Majesty, you impressed the Western Region mission today and saved the princess."
"But it may also arouse the dissatisfaction of the Western Region Dynasty against the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Do I need to arrange it in advance?" King Jiang asked.
Jiang Qiulu thought for a while.
"Now there is already a rift between the two countries."
"If these troubles are not resolved in time, there will probably be a war with the Western Region Dynasty."
"And we have just ended the war, and all important things have not been fully restored."
"It's not suitable for another war to break out," Jiang Qiulu said.
"Your Majesty, what should we do if they insist on fighting?" King Jiang asked.
"If they insist on fighting, then there is nothing I can do."
"I can only stay with you until the end." Jiang Qiulu said helplessly.
"Your Majesty, all I need is your order."
"The old minister then led the army to raid the Western Region Dynasty." King Jiang said.
Jiang Qiulu nodded.
"Based on the current situation."
"The Great Xia Dynasty and the Western Region Dynasty will have a battle sooner or later."
"So we must be fully prepared." Jiang Qiulu said.
While the two were talking, Chen Fei entered the imperial study.
Jiang Qiulu looked at Chen Fei and found that Chen Fei's face was a little pale, and there was a look of fear in his eyes.
Jiang Qiulu was shocked.
Chen Fei has a calm temperament and is very calm in situations, now that he has shown this attitude.
That means something big must have happened.
"What happened?" Jiang Qiulu stood up and asked.
"Your Majesty, the Western Region Envoy..."
Jiang Qiulu's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words "Mission to the Western Regions".
"What happened to the Western Region Mission?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
Chen Fei took a deep breath.
"According to reports from Nanzhen Fusi's brother who is working outside the city."
"The Western Region Mission was attacked by an unknown armed force."
"After our inspection, all members of the mission were wiped out."
"The prince of the Western Regions Dynasty, Fang Dingkun, is missing."
boom!
This news, like a powerful bomb, exploded in Jiang Qiulu's heart.
The envoy was killed in the Daxia Dynasty, and the Western Region Dynasty will definitely hold him accountable.
And there's another problem.
Their prince, Fang Dingkun, disappeared.
"Envoy Chen Zhen!"
"I'm here!"
"We must find Fang Dingkun."
"I want to see people when I'm alive, and I want to see corpses when I die." Jiang Qiulu said.
Jiang Qiulu was also very nervous about this matter.
The Western Region Dynasty will be held accountable if he cannot come up with a reasonable explanation.
The two countries will immediately enter the flames of war.
Jiang Qiulu thought for a long time and came up with two possibilities.
The first one was done by Kuai Dao Tang.
Kuai Dao Tang, as a powerful force in the world, may seek money and kill people because of money.
Another possibility is the Black Dragon Legion under King Yong.
White Tiger City in the west of Kyoto City is the only way for the Western Region Dynasty to pass on its way back.
If the Black Dragon Army is stationed in White Tiger City, then it may be their fault.
Jiang Qiulu told King Jiang about these two reasons.
"Your Majesty, please follow the advice of my veterans."
"Although this first possibility is a bit far-fetched, it is still reasonable."
"The remaining possibility is the most terrifying."
"If it was really King Yong who deliberately provoked a war between the Great Xia Dynasty and the Western Region Dynasty."
"Then this matter is more serious."
"In addition, the old minister also thought of a possibility." King Jiang said, stroking his beard gently.
"Uncle, please speak!"
"The old minister guessed that it was their prince Fang Dingkun who did it!" King Jiang guessed.
Jiang Qiulu's eyes were filled with shock.
"Fang Dingkun hated what happened today, so he deliberately killed his own people."
"Then we will provoke a dispute between the two countries and then negotiate terms with Your Majesty."
"This person harbors evil intentions towards the princess, and is also thinking about chasing Yuncheng."
"From this aspect, it can also be explained." King Jiang said.
Now it seems that the speculation mentioned by King Jiang is the most likely.
Otherwise, their prince would not be seen alive or dead.
But now there is a very critical question, where did Fang Dingkun go?
"Uncle Emperor, do you want to send someone to seal off the western border and strictly check people entering and leaving the border?" Jiang Qiulu asked.
King Jiang shook his head.
"Your Majesty, it's too late."
"Even if we can find him, the Western Region Dynasty is nearby, and we can't do anything to him." King Jiang said.
Jiang Qiulu sighed.
The Great Xia Dynasty had hundreds of millions of people.
Looking for one person among so many is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Suddenly, Jiang Qiulu had a flash of inspiration.
"Uncle Emperor, I have a guess."
"If it is true as the emperor said, then Fang Dingkun will definitely hide in a corner and secretly observe this place."
"If I were Fang Dingkun, I would definitely observe the royal family's movements and then find an opportunity to return to the Western Region Dynasty."
"After getting the information from the palace, we can choose the time to attack." Jiang Qiulu said.
"Your Majesty, do you mean that Fang Dingkun is still in Kyoto City?" King Jiang asked.
"I'm not sure about this, so we need to verify it." Then a smile appeared on Jiang Qiulu's lips.
"Uncle Emperor, find an opportunity to announce it to the public."
"Let's just say that the Zhenfu Department is ready to investigate the murderer, and no matter who it is, he will be beheaded!"
"I want to see if the people from the Western Region Dynasty can sit still?"
"If Fang Dingkun has the courage, he will continue to stay here." Jiang Qiulu sneered.
"promise!"
As a result, this matter spread in the court.
The Western Region Dynasty was killed in the Daxia Dynasty. This was a shocking event.
Now the key to the whole mystery lies in this Fang Dingkun.
As long as we can find him, we can know the truth.
"Envoy Chen Zhen, the following time."
"Pay close attention to the movements in Kyoto City."
"And tell General Di that in the coming time, the city defenders will strictly scrutinize people coming in and out."
"If Fang Dingkun is found, arrest him immediately." Jiang Qiulu said.
"No!" Chen Fei took the order and left.
Jiang Qiulu thought for a while, and then said to Jiang Donglin behind him.
"Donglin, we have to keep an eye on Xia Wei these days."
"Fang Dingkun is very likely to be hiding in Kyoto City. I'm afraid that he will be caught by surprise."
"Don't worry, brother Huang."
