Soon, the three of them arrived at Wentao’s courtyard.
Sitting in the main seat of the living room, and looking towards the two men with a solemn expression, Daohua asked, “Now, tell me, what exactly happened?”
Wentao still wanted to struggle a bit and said with a forced smile, “What do you mean ‘what happened’?”
Daohua glanced at him and said without any expression, “Why were you poisoned? What poison were you exposed to?”
Wentao lowered his head and remained silent.
Seeing Daohua’s unwavering demeanor, Yan Wenkai laughed ‘hehe’ twice and recounted their experiences in the Northern Frontier in detail.
The Prince had planted many of his people in the military camp, among them a high-ranking, influential second-rank general.
This general knew about the matters in Sishan Village and was also on good terms with a deputy commander of Xia Teng’s troops. After seeing the weapons they had sent, he immediately sent word to the Prince.
Fortunately, Xiao Yeyang had arranged for someone in advance to intercept that secret letter; otherwise, by now, the Prince would have been aware of everything concerning Sishan Village.
Even though they knew the general was one of the Prince’s men, they couldn’t simply arrest him because of his high prestige in the military. Plus, due to their past actions, he grew cautious. He carried his trusted aides everywhere and did not attend any private gatherings, making it difficult for them to find an opportunity to act.
