Chapter 1031

They lacked the ability and were not enough to resist Great Qin.

Therefore, they wanted to hide and develop stealthily.

But because of Shangqing Meng Yi's sudden arrival, all of this was disrupted.

Something might have happened during this, and Ren Xiao and the others had no choice but to capture Shangqing Meng Yi.

Otherwise, if Shangqing Meng Yi were to pass the news back to Great Qin, their daydream would be shattered.

This was a crime punishable by the extermination of three clans; no one dared to take it lightly.

But when they were capturing Shangqing Meng Yi, they were discovered.

It should have been an attendant by Shangqing Meng Yi's side who escaped.

Finally, this news was passed back to Great Qin.

After the news was passed back to Great Qin, Ren Xiao and the others panicked completely.

Therefore, they found an excuse to blockade the city and the border leading to Great Qin.

They hadn't prepared a foolproof plan yet, but the news had leaked.

With the timing not yet mature, they didn't dare tell the people below that they wanted to rebel.

Although the people below were their subordinates and listened to them,

if it came to rebellion, it was estimated that many would not listen.

Now that everyone could eat their fill and dress warmly, which soldier would risk rebelling?

The matter of rebellion was too big; once discovered, it meant losing one's head.

The current Great Qin was incomparably strong; whether it was wealth or provisions, everything was incomparably abundant.

The soldiers weren't stupid; they couldn't possibly follow Ren Xiao and the others to rebel.

Once discovered, not only would they be in trouble, but their families would also lose their heads.

But there were certainly desperate people among them, and those who sought quick success and instant benefits.

Only these people would be subdued by Ren Xiao and the others.

Therefore, Ren Xiao and the others didn't dare to rebel openly.

They were afraid that once it was said, the entire Nanyue would fall into chaos first.

By then, they wouldn't need Great Qin to attack; they would be defeated by their own people.

Now that Great Qin was peaceful and prosperous, rebelling was just looking for death.

With everyone having enough to eat, it was estimated that not many soldiers would accompany them in their madness.

Therefore—Ren Xiao and the others only wanted to develop silently.

As long as they were given more time, it was estimated that the entire Nanyue would be taken by them quietly.

But everything was disrupted because of Shangqing Meng Yi's arrival.

This was perhaps the reason why they captured Shangqing Meng Yi.

All of this was Ying Ying Zi Ye's guess based on some information.

As for what the real situation was, he didn't know either.

But this guess of his was likely eight or nine out of ten.

The general situation should be like this.

Ying Ying Zi Ye stated all the above guesses.

The scene suddenly became silent.

One could hear a pin drop.

Everyone looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye in disbelief.

They were so shocked by Ying Ying Zi Ye's remarks that their jaws were about to drop.

Young Master Hu is Hu Hai?

Wasn't Hu Hai demoted to a commoner?

Why would he appear here?

And that Old Man Fan called Fan Zeng.

Many of them didn't know this Fan Zeng.

But a small portion of people knew Fan Zeng.

That was the dog-headed strategist of the Chu remnant Xiang Yu.

I heard he was also a rather capable strategist.

How did these two get mixed up together?

If it was really as the Crown Prince guessed,

then this Nanyue matter could be explained.

The originally perfectly fine Nanyue

gradually became like this because of Hu Hai's arrival.

Because the current Great Qin was much stronger than before.

The rebellion was discovered by Shangqing Meng Yi, and they had no choice but to make such a decision.

But this matter was too big, big enough that they didn't dare expose it.

Therefore, Ren Xiao didn't dare let the people below know about the rebellion.

It was just to prevent his own people from falling into chaos first.

So he found an excuse saying a fugitive had escaped.

To blockade the city and try to delay time.

Or perhaps they wanted to remedy it, or there was some other reason.

These, they did not know. ===== CHAPTER 1033 =====
