Chapter 585 Doubt
Huo Xianming.
Ye Qing'an secretly memorized the name, but then it suddenly came to mind.
It was Liu Enze who told her to come find Huo Xianming.
Since Liu Enze would send her to find Huo Xianming at such a critical moment, it must be because Huo Xianming is someone he trusts.
Huo Xianming said he arrived at the camp a month ago.
Liu Enze should have arrived about a month ago, right?
If Huo Xianming is Liu Enze's man, does that mean that Huo Xianming kidnapping Qiao'er was also Liu Enze's doing?
But why would Liu Enze do this?
She thought that, through her deliberate pretense, she should have already shown trust and dependence on Liu Enze recently.
If Liu Enze had designs on her, he would have many ways to do so.
Or……
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes, recalling what had happened at the inn earlier...
The events that occurred at the inn must have made Liu Enze suspicious of her.
Liu Enze was unaware that she already knew about his suspicions towards her...
So, Liu Enze has been investigating her from a place she can't see?
It's not impossible... After all, Liu Enze is also Yi Yunkui's man.
Countless thoughts raced through Ye Qing'an's mind, but she only frowned slightly. Fortunately, at least on the surface, there was nothing suspicious about her identity or her experiences.
She kept her shameful secrets hidden.
It was placed in the Cloud Dreamland, on Jiuxiao's body, and in the Fire Radiance Pavilion.
only……
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes. Previously, she had sent Jiu Xiao to get close to Liu Enze, but Liu Enze discovered it.
Will Liu Enze also suspect her about Jiu Xiao's matter?
Ye Qing'an felt her mind was in turmoil, but now was not the time to calm down and clarify everything. So she simply suppressed her doubts and reminded herself to be extra careful when facing Liu Enze in the future.
Ye Qing'an quickly arrived outside the dense forest and placed the sack in her hand on the ground: "Dr. Huo made some poison gas. He said that all we need to do is light these pills and then throw them in."
Liu Enze nodded and looked at the Crown Prince: "I would trouble Your Highness to find a few trustworthy people to come over."
The crown prince responded and turned to summon his personal guards.
“These guards have always been by my side and are absolutely reliable. If I were to say who in this camp I can absolutely trust and who would never betray me, these would probably be the only ones.”
Ye Qing'an then took out the antidote Huo Xianming had given her from her sleeve: "This is the antidote. You can take it before you go to place the poisonous smoke, just in case."
The crown prince took it and tossed the antidote to the commander of his personal guards.
The commander divided the antidote among himself and had everyone take it before carrying the sack away.
Ye Qing'an narrowed his eyes: "I've been back for almost half an hour, and the rebels haven't made a single move?"
"No." The Crown Prince shook his head. "They're probably waiting for our next move."
Ye Qing'an nodded, his gaze fixed on the guards who were digging some holes near the dense forest.
"We just dug some small holes over there, and they do indeed lead to secret passages. Our guess was correct..."
The guards reopened the area that had been dug up and then covered up, each taking a seat next to a cave. They counted the pills, put them into the cave together, lit them on fire, threw them in, and then quickly covered the cave again.
After throwing some in, the guards walked a little further into the dense forest and then threw in more poisonous smoke using the same method.
Ye Qing'an's fingers, which were tucked into her sleeves, twitched slightly. She really didn't know what Yi Moxu was planning to do next.
However, since Yi Moxu was able to tell her the secret of the secret passage without any hesitation, he must have had a backup plan.
Ye Qing'an put himself in Yi Moxu's shoes and thought about what he would do in this situation.
This secret passage should have more than one exit.
There was poisonous smoke in the secret passage. If she were Yi Moxu, she would have sent the rebels out of the passage and then into the forest to deal with the Siyou Kingdom's army there.
Although Ye Qing'an had thought of this, she did not tell the Crown Prince and Liu Enze what she was thinking.
Ye Qing'an pursed her lips. The battle between the two armies was like playing a game of chess, with traps everywhere.
In her previous life, she actually quite liked the battlefield.
When two armies clash, engaging in a battle of wits and courage, it can actually be quite an interesting thing.
However, the army of Siyou Kingdom is currently in a state of utter chaos...
and……
Ye Qing'an lowered her eyes. In truth, deep down, she did not want the Siyou Kingdom's army to win.
The victory of the Siyou Kingdom's army brought her no benefit whatsoever.
She was in this camp initially only because she felt her power was not yet fully developed, so she wanted to keep a low profile. Furthermore, having learned of the secret between Ye Zirui and the Crown Prince, she wanted to approach the Crown Prince and investigate Ye Zirui's affairs.
Now, because they know that the mastermind behind the Nightshade Clan is in this camp, they want to find that person...
As for the future, she is actually waiting and looking for an opportunity.
Once she has enough power, she'll find a suitable opportunity...
They rose up in rebellion.
Her ambition has never disappeared.
As Ye Qing'an was lost in thought, she suddenly heard a cry of surprise coming from the forest.
The prince took a few quick steps toward the dense forest before stopping: "Go and find out what's happening in the forest."
"Yes."
Liu Enze narrowed his eyes: "The poisonous smoke must have forced the rebels out of the secret passage, and then they ran into our soldiers who had entered the forest earlier."
The Crown Prince frowned: "Didn't we already issue orders for them to evacuate completely? Why are they still inside?"
"When a general is in the field, he may disobey some of the military orders."
Liu Enze's face was tense: "It's been a while since we gave the order. If they wanted to leave this forest, they would have already gone out."
"Therefore, they must have ignored our orders and did not leave the forest."
The Crown Prince's expression grew increasingly grim: "What are they trying to do? Are they completely ignoring my orders? Do they want to die?"
"If they want to die, then let them die."
The crown prince sneered, "There's no need to go and save them."
Ye Qing'an raised her eyes and glanced at the Crown Prince, a hint of hesitation in them: "Shouldn't we go to rescue him?"
"What are you trying to save? They're clearly just asking for it."
Ye Qing'an opened her mouth, then turned to look at Liu Enze. Liu Enze stood there, his expression not very good, but he did not say anything to advise her.
Seeing Liu Enze like this, Ye Qing'an also lowered his head and remained silent.
If you don't want to save him, then so be it. The Crown Prince acted impulsively and probably didn't even consider the consequences of not saving him.
But... what does all this have to do with her?
