Chapter 0211 Ye Qiao is the culprit behind the scenes
Jiang Chen suddenly took a few steps, passed by Ye Qiao, and came to the side of the guards.
He stared at two of the guards with sharp eyes and asked calmly: "Second Prince, are these your guards?
"Huh?" Ye Qiao was stunned.
"What are their names?" Jiang Chen asked again.
"Jiang Chen, you, the dignified owner of the Tiangui Kingdom's military order, are so interested in my two personal guards?" Ye Qiao smiled, "They are all my personal guards who have followed me since childhood. They have no names."
"No name or surname? Even if it is a dog, it must have a name, right? Second Prince, you are not very kind to your subordinates."
Ye Qiao's face darkened: "Jiang Chen, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean?" Jiang Chen chuckled, "Second Prince, after you go out, please don't have nightmares when you sleep at night? I heard that the tide of gold-eating rats is very scary."
A fierce murderous intent flashed in the corner of Ye Qiao's eyes, but he suppressed it in the end. He was different from Ye Dai. As the eldest prince, Ye Dai had great power and strong backers. He had been unscrupulous since he was a child and was used to crushing with absolute strength.
Ye Qiao is different, he is better at using his mind and knows how to assess the situation.
In terms of absolute strength, his team is at least 90% certain to crush Ye Rong's team. However, at this time, a head-on confrontation will not be able to resolve the battle in a matter of seconds.
Moreover, this is an open area. Once there is a fight, he cannot guarantee that he will kill everyone in Ye Rong. If someone slips through the net, the results will be disastrous.
You can secretly use countless methods to fight intrigues between princes. As long as they are not discovered and there is no evidence, it will be harmless.
But when it comes to killing openly, unless you can guarantee that it will be flawless and no flaws will be revealed, otherwise, once the news is brought out, Ye Qiao will fall short.
What's more, Ye Qiao also had the same fear as Ye Dai at that time, and that was Concubine Dan.
Although Ye Qiao's thoughts on women are much better than Ye Dai's. Although he also covets Concubine Dan, he is not as crazy as Ye Dai.
He coveted Concubine Dan, firstly because Concubine Dan was indeed the most beautiful woman in the royal capital and had a superb temperament, but more importantly, Concubine Dan had a great background. Being able to marry Concubine Dan meant that she had the support of the Grand Tutor.
Having the support of Master Taifu means having everything.
Ye Rong chuckled: "Second brother, seeing that you are so free, you should have gained a lot this time. It seems that I can't fall behind, so I will take the first step."
"Haha, easy to say, easy to say." Ye Qiao was a little absent-minded.
"Second brother, if you meet eldest brother, remember to say hello for me." Ye Rong smiled and left with the team.
But after Jiang Chen and his party walked for about ten miles, Jiang Chen suddenly stopped.
"Fourth Prince, I smell a trace of blood on those two guards, which is exactly the same as the blood of the gold-devouring rat. Those two people are definitely the culprits who designed to trap us."
"Are you sure?" Ye Rong just tested Ye Qiao with his words. In fact, he was 90% sure that Ye Qiao did this.
However, no matter how sure he was, there was no direct evidence after all. Ye Qiao's appearance in that area was very strange, but without definite evidence, he could only test it.
"I'm 100% sure, Fourth Prince, you take the first step. This matter cannot be left alone. Even if I don't kill the Second Prince, I will definitely kill his two personal guards and beat the Second Prince.
He had other ideas along the way."
Ye Rong was moved: "Are you going alone? How about asking Qianli to go with you?"
"No, let Qianli go with you. He is the strongest and will have someone to look after you along the way. I want two personal guards. Although I can't say I'm 100% sure, I'm still 70-80% sure."
"Jiang Chen, since you have made your decision, I have no objection. However, you'd better not touch your dick to avoid getting into trouble. When I go back and read his book, he will definitely be in big trouble."
That said, Ye Rong actually hopes that Jiang Chen and Ye Qiao will die together, but he can't say this clearly.
Jiang Chen cupped his hands, nodded, tiptoed, and left quickly.
As soon as Jiang Chen left, he went around and released the Gold-eating Rat King: "I have found the culprit who killed your descendants. You can sense it yourself. You should be able to sense the blood of your descendants.
The Gold-Eating Rat King was furious: "Where?"
Jiang Chen said: "It's twenty or thirty miles away from here. If you surround us from here, I guess they will choose to escape in the direction we came out before."
The Gold-eating Rat King sneered: "Escape? That area is my territory. They want to escape? They can't escape."
Jiang Chen chuckled and said: "Don't waste time, I'll take a detour, take the lead, and occupy that intersection, leaving them with no way to escape."
The Gold-eating Rat King nodded: "That's fine. I'll send ten of my descendants to surround them from all sides. We'll use the fastest speed to seize the line in the direction of the valley. In this way, they won't have any escape route."
But on Ye Qiao's side, watching Ye Rong's team disappear from sight, Ye Qiao's eyes were flashing with murderous intent.
"Your Highness, this...this is not right." Ye Qiao's subordinate Lingxuan whispered.
Ye Qiao also found it very strange: "Lingxuan, this fourth child is completely exhausted. He doesn't look like he encountered a rat tide at all. Could it be that this rat tide is not as scary as imagined?"
Lingxuan shook his head: "We have also seen it from the outside. The rat tide is overwhelming and there is almost no gap. No matter how strong we are, we will never escape. Besides, the route we arranged is to cover all the areas behind that valley.
They are surrounded, and once the rat tide arrives, they will have no way out."
"Lingshi, Lingfeng, come here." Ye Qiao called to the other two personal guards. These two people were also the two people Jiang Chen specifically pointed out just now.
"Your Highness, I sincerely request Your Highness to issue an order for my two brothers to hunt down Ye Rong's team. I cannot swallow the insult Jiang Chen has given to my two brothers."
This spirit stone and spirit wind are both strong men in the first level of the spiritual realm. They are good at hiding and killing, and are especially good at tracking.
This is why Ye Qiao sent them to induce the rat tide.
"Second Prince, based on the analysis of my subordinates, Ye Rong's side must have made some guesses. What they said is all accurate. Jiang Chen, in particular, did not target others, but deliberately targeted Lingshi and Lingfeng.
Did he really find something wrong?"
Ye Qiao looked at Lingshi and Lingfeng with gloomy eyes: "How sure are you that you can wipe them out?
"If we face a head-on confrontation, we are only 20% sure at most about taking them down. But if we use someone who is good at tracking and assassination, we are at least 80% sure about annihilating them. Moreover, our brothers are good at hiding and disguising themselves, so they will never be exposed.
prince."
Ye Qiao's heart stirred. Thinking of Ye Rong and Jiang Chen's words, he felt a little uneasy.
"Does the fourth child really have any evidence? Ye Dai and Ye Zheng have not come out, so they must be dead. If the fourth child has evidence about this matter, and when he returns, I will submit it as soon as he submits the evidence.
Completely failed. When the time comes, the position of prince will naturally fall into his hands."
When Ye Qiao thought of this, he nodded and said solemnly: "Remember, you have to be ruthless in your actions. Since you want to take action, you must pursue the root cause."
"yes"
"Go and fight quickly," Ye Qiao ordered.
Now that the matter has come to this, Ye Qiao has nothing to hesitate about. Anyway, all the big things have been done. His biggest competitor, Ye Dai, is already dead. He can't leave this guy Ye Rong behind and ruin him.
Qiao's big plan. As long as Ye Rong dies, among all the princes, Ye Qiao will have no competitors.
Although there are more than four princes, the remaining princes are either mediocre or young, and are simply not good enough to compete with Ye Qiao.
"Kill Ye Rong, I, Ye Qiao, am almost the only candidate." Ye Qiao's eyes were flashing with murderous intent.
"Lingxuan, you should also go and check the area inside to see what's going on inside. Remember, your own safety is the first priority. If the rat tide doesn't recede, don't go deep. You are my heart and soul.
Even if you and I conquer the world, it will still be a fly in the ointment."
This is Ye Qiao's strength, he is good at winning people's hearts. These thoughtful words were spoken so smoothly and naturally that his subordinates could not help but die for him.
"Yes, I'm going to take a look." Lingxuan was the leader of this group of personal guards. He turned to the other followers and said, "You guys, you must protect the safety of the second prince."
Lingxuan was about to set off when suddenly his ears twitched slightly, his body suddenly paused, and a solemn look appeared in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Ye Qiao was slightly startled when he saw Lingxuan's behavior.
Lingxuan's expression suddenly changed. He lay on the ground and listened for a moment. A look of fear suddenly flashed across his face: "Not good."
"how?"
At this moment, Lingshi and Lingfeng, who had just left not long ago, also ran back quickly, their faces full of fear.
"Your Highness, retreat quickly. The rat tide is encircling us from the front."
"What?" When Ye Qiao heard this, he was completely confused. Rat tide? How could the rat tide go around to the front? They were clearly on the periphery and didn't sense the rat tide passing by here at all. Why did this suddenly happen?
The rat tide is coming from the opposite direction?
"The route of the rat tide is very strange. They outflanked us in a large circle, and actually surrounded us." Lingxuan also heard the route of the rat tide and made a judgment.
"Quick, quick, Lingxuan, find a road quickly, find the area where the rat tide is weak, and kill it as fast as possible. You must not be surrounded by the rat tide."
Ye Qiao was anxious. He never thought that after all his hard work, Ye Rong and the others were fine, but the rat tide surrounded him.
Lingxuan was well aware of the dangers of the rat tide. He lay on the ground and listened carefully, trying to analyze an escape route from the fluctuations of the rat tide. As long as the rat tide had not completely gathered and formed an encirclement, then with their sprinting speed, they would be able to escape without stopping.
In this case, there is still hope of escape.
"Your Highness, it's really strange. Except for the direction of the valley, all other areas are surrounded by the rat tide. There are no weak areas at all." Lingxuan said.
"The direction of the valley?" Ye Qiao frowned, "Isn't there only one entrance to the valley and no exit at all? If we go in that direction, won't it lead to a dead end?"
"The valley is a desert, that's true. But if we are outside the valley, we should be able to find other roads. As long as we don't enter the valley and bypass the valley, we may still have time." Lingxuan was not sure about the terrain inside.
Although they had investigated, it was only an investigation after all, and the specific circumstances were still unknown.
If the road around the valley is not easy to walk and you need to trek, your speed will definitely slow down significantly. In that case, you will be in danger of being overtaken by the rat tide.
