Chapter 1307 - 408: Seeking Your Own Death, Fear Not_2
fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm Although these princes and sons had become much more reserved after Chu Heng’s recovery, their covert and overt criticisms of Chu Heng’s lack of a successor betrayed their lingering aspirations for the position of Crown Prince. The earlier suggestion that Chu Heng should adopt a child from another Prince’s Mansion had been secretly maneuvered by these individuals.
Xiao Ruiyuan started with these princes and sons, and kept an eye on Weiya, who could freely enter and leave Jing City with the Passage Order he had given her. Sure enough, he discovered clues and successfully located the hiding place of that group of spies. He prepared to take this opportunity to root out the mastermind behind the scenes and eradicate future troubles.
"Master, what should we do next?" Xiao Eleven’s disdain for the person mentioned by his master reached its extreme. He understood the desire of the fallen to rise again but found it despicable to cast aside the righteousness of one’s country in pursuit of one’s goals and to make deals with a tiger.
"Let them be for now. Once we capture the Uto People in one fell swoop, he won’t be able to escape," Xiao Ruiyuan stated emotionlessly, sealing the fates of those harboring enemy spies.

Xiao Ruiyuan could not stay in Liu Yang Village indefinitely. Once again, Maomao became his and Mo Yan’s messenger, traveling daily between the Mo Family and the General Mansion, exchanging their letters.
After opening the white cloth and reading its contents, a trace of joy crossed Xiao Ruiyuan’s face. Instead of immediately writing a reply as usual, he quickly gathered all the Hidden Guards and personally issued a series of orders to them.
After making all the arrangements, Xiao Jiu hesitated for a moment before suggesting to Xiao Ruiyuan, "Master, the gunpowder is too dangerous. To be safe, I think it would be best to dispose of it ahead of time."
