“In the future, when 1 return to the capital, 1 will definitely clear the Nangong Clan’s name and restore the glory of the Great General.”

That was a promise.

ingthe Nangong family clear their name and let Li Xiao inherit the Great General’s Mansion and become the new Great General.

However, Li Xiao was expressionless. He knelt down on one knee again.

“Thank you for your kindness, but I have no need for the Great General’s Mansion. After this is done, I will petition for the Nangong Army to return to the imperial court. I would like to stay in Daishi Village and with my beloved wife.” As he spoke, Li Xiao actually looked at Lin Xiaoyue at the side, his eyes filled with affection.

Lin Xiaoyue also had a faint smile in her eyes.

This scene shocked everyone in the room.

Especially Liang Yu.

Seeing Lin Xiaoyue’s satisfied smile, the heaviness in his heart completely dissipated.

“Li Xiao, what are you saying? The Nangong family has been guarding the Great Yan for generations.”

“I hope Your Highness will grant my wish!” Before Prince Anyang could finish speaking, Li Xiao interrupted him and raised his voice.

Prince Anyang frowned.

“Let’s talk about this in the future.”

However, he was relieved.

His father was suspicious of the Great General King and was afraid of the Nangong Army, so he attacked the Nangong Clan. Although this move was too hasty, it was not without reason.

The Great General was indeed too powerful.

If they really had the intention to rebel, the Great Yan would have a new ruler.

He had no choice but to use Li Xiao against his father.

However, he didn’t want to nurture another Great General.

Li Xiao had taken the initiative to give up his military power and hand over the army after the matter was settled. What else could make him more relieved than this?

Sigh, he didn’t want to be charged with killing a meritorious minister in the future. This was the best outcome.

Of course, he couldn’t agree to it now.

When everything was settled in the future, they would talk about it then.

The following topic was more urgent.

“The army is now trapped at the border. The soldiers are already killing their horses to fill their stomachs. Please help them escape.” Li Xiao quickly said.

Prince Anyang frowned.

“I have also heard of this matter. However, Father has been keeping a close eye on the border. I’m afraid it won’t be so easy to bring them in.”

As he spoke, Prince Anyang looked at Li Xiao again.

“Do you have any ideas?” He asked.

Li Xiao hurriedly cupped his fists at Prince Anyang.

Then, he told Prince Anyang about the plan he had discussed with Lin Xiaoyue.

When Prince Anyang heard this, there was a hint of admiration in his eyes when he looked at Li Xiao.

“After splitting up, with the Liang Trading Company and the Zhou Trading Company as support, the soldiers should arrive at Anyang County. It’s indeed a good idea.” Prince Anyang said.

“Yes. This matter requires Young Master Liang’s approval.” Li Xiao cupped his fists at Liang Yu as he spoke.

“Of course I will help.” Liang Yu replied readily.

“Thank you!” Li Xiao thanked him.

“Young General is too polite.”

Li Xiao nodded at Liang Yu and then looked at Prince Anyang.

“Also, the Zhou Trading Company…”

As for the Zhou Trading Company, Prince Anyang had to step in.

Before this, he was worried that Prince Anyang would not be able to deal with Third Master Zhou.

After learning that Anyang County had become his turf, he was not worried at all.

Third Master Zhou was based in Anyang County. If Prince Anyang wanted to rope them in, it was not a problem.

Li Xiao originally thought that Prince Anyang would give him an affirmative answer very quickly. However, he hesitated.

Li Xiao was puzzled and Liang Yu spoke.

“We just confirmed that there is someone behind the Zhou Trading Company.”

Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue were both shocked.

He looked at Liang Yu.

“Who is it?” Li Xiao asked.

Liang Yu did not reply, but looked at Prince Anyang.

Prince Anyang sighed.

“It’s Father.” He gave a shocking answer.

As soon as they heard this, Lin Xiaoyue and Li Xiao were greatly shocked.

They even felt a chill down their spine.

So, they were actually doing business with Emperor Yan?

They were already on the edge of the cliff, but they didn’t know it?

“This news is extremely confidential. Even the Zhou members know very little about it. Even Zhou Ji (Third Master Zhou’s father) does not know. Therefore, don’t worry for the time being.” Liang Yu comforted them.

Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue looked at each other and felt a little more relaxed.

However, when they thought about how frequently they came in contact with Third Master Zhou and how they had even entrusted the matter of returning the army to him, the lingering fear was difficult to dispel.

Lin Xiaoyue had also figured out some things at this time.

It was no wonder that the Zhou Trading Company could control more than half of the Great Yan’s slave market even though they did not have a backer..
