Bai Qingyan looked at Xiao Rongyan with clear eyes: "But, since the Jin Kingdom has not received any news, I suspected that Yan Army must have been captured or completely slaughtered."
Xiao Rongyan nodded, Bai Qingyan's wisdom was unparalleled, it was natural for her to guess so.
"I sent envoys to the Rong, asking them to release the Yan Army, but the King of Rong said...he had entrusted the matter entirely to the Ghostface Prince of the Rong and would not intervene. Whether this was a prevarication or if he truly trusted the Ghostface Prince, I could not tell."
Xiao Rongyan spoke slowly, but she believed it must be the latter.
She knew that if her brother, A Yu, wanted to control Nanrong, he would have to control the King of Rong, and more importantly, control the army thoroughly.
