Chapter 592 A Good Name
If that's the case, then everything makes sense.
Having figured out the key to this, Lu Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief.
Planning is one thing, but whether it can be successfully implemented depends on whether His Highness has the ability to do so.
If His Highness wants His Majesty to order an attack on Yuechuan Kingdom, he must prove that the Longevity Gu truly exists.
If she wasn't mistaken, the reason the Crown Prince went to such lengths to bring Sheng Yunzhu from the capital, and even promised to heal the injuries on her face, must be because Sheng Yunzhu, this reborn person, had heard something.
There is still a chance to stop this before the Crown Prince proves the existence of the Longevity Gu.
Although Yuechuan Kingdom is mysterious, it is not an invader, unlike the Northern Yan Kingdom which plundered and fought for supremacy. They are not enemies.
If so many innocent people and the lives of the soldiers in Jinzhou are to be sacrificed simply because of His Highness's selfishness, where is justice?
She had to find a way to prevent the prince's scheme from succeeding!
I just don't know if Mingxiu will be able to successfully convey the message to His Highness. His Highness is so smart, he will surely discover the problem.
The most important thing now is to find a way to disrupt His Highness's plans and then contact him as soon as possible.
We absolutely cannot allow His Highness to prove the existence of the Longevity Gu, otherwise, given His Majesty's personality, he will definitely attack Yuechuan Kingdom.
"Yangyang," seeing Lu Yangyang's serious expression, Sheng Yunjiao asked, "What are you thinking about? Are you alright?"
Lu Yangyang shook her head, glanced outside the door, and caught sight of Ajiao coiled up in the yard. Suddenly remembering something, she asked Sheng Yunjiao, "Jiaojiao, did you see that big python?"
Sheng Yunjiao nodded, still somewhat curious: "How did you end up with the Holy Envoy?"
Lu Yangyang wanted to ask this: "How do you know it's a holy envoy? It's Yue Ling's pet, named A Jiao, and you two seem to have a special connection."
Sheng Yunjiao stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "No, really?"
Yin Yueling tilted her head: "Why not?"
Sheng Yunjiao smiled awkwardly: "Okay, okay name."
Everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Sheng Yunjiao explained to them, "I used to be terrified of insects and snakes. Luckily, I encountered them every day along the way in the dense forest. The high priest told me that once you get used to and understand them, you won't be afraid of anything. Humans are naturally afraid of the unknown. Later, after I arrived in the Holy Capital, I saw many people raising snakes. Then I learned that snakes are considered gods in the Yuechuan Kingdom. The statue in the Gu God Temple is a giant python. Therefore, in the Yuechuan Kingdom, all pythons are called holy envoys, and they are respected regardless of whether they come from the Yuechuan Kingdom."
"So that's how it is." It seems their guess was right; no wonder there are snake totems hanging everywhere in this holy city.
Li Shisan said, "Then we can say we stumbled upon this by accident."
"That's all thanks to my Ah Jiao," Yin Yueling said proudly.
Li Shisan said helplessly, "Yes, yes, yes, Ajiao deserves the most credit."
Then he sincerely prayed: "I hope the Gu God can truly protect us and help the Miao region overcome this difficulty."
"Most definitely."
The group quickly replied.
Sheng Yunjiao understood Lu Yangyang and knew she must have a plan: "Yangyang, His Highness is here..."
"Didn't His Highness want to use you to lure me or A-Que out? Then let him have his way. Now that you've disappeared right under his nose, he'll definitely think that one of our people has appeared and start investigating. We'll spread some dubious false information to give him something to do."
This was something she had thought of when she took Sheng Yunjiao away, but she hadn't thought about it that much at the time.
“I think His Highness’s goal is not just Miao Jiang. He may very well be targeting Yuechuan Kingdom. The simplest way for him to obtain the Longevity Gu is to attack Yuechuan Kingdom directly. As long as he figures out the route to Yuechuan Kingdom, attacking Yuechuan Kingdom is not an impossible task,” Lu Yangyang said.
Hua Rui looked bewildered: "But, but he didn't just want the Longevity Gu, did he? Why would he do this? The people of Yuechuan Kingdom are innocent too..."
"Judging from what Jiaojiao just said about the situation in the capital, do you think His Highness and his men are capable of taking down the Longevity Gu?" Lu Yangyang asked.
Hua Rui subconsciously shook her head.
“So things aren’t that simple.” Lu Yangyang looked at them and continued, “If His Highness’s goal is really to attack Yuechuan Kingdom, we must find a way to stop it, otherwise no one will be able to save Miao Jiang.”
"Given the connection between Miaojiang and Yuechuan Kingdom, once we attack Yuechuan Kingdom, no matter what salt wells Miaojiang offers, it will be of no use."
"What should we do then?" The group looked at her anxiously.
"Given the current situation in the capital, it's not easy to inquire about news from the royal city. His Highness is definitely waiting for a suitable opportunity," Lu Yangyang pondered.
"You mean, the sacrificial ceremony?" Wen Qingqing asked.
Lu Yangyang nodded: "Yes, the sacrificial ceremony is the best opportunity. As long as King Yuechuan appears, regardless of whether the longevity gu is real or not, His Highness will make it real. In this way, he won't need to do anything else, and the matter will be half accomplished."
"So what we need to do is stop him during the sacrificial ceremony."
Sheng Yunjiao looked at her nervously: "What should we do?"
“The best way, of course, is to go see King Yuechuan. As long as she is on guard, the Crown Prince won’t succeed so easily. But none of us can see King Yuechuan,” Lu Yangyang said after thinking for a moment. “However, we can use the people who have come to participate in the sacrificial ceremony. Since everyone is here to worship the God of Gu, let’s make the God of Gu appear in the world and let the Longevity Gu become a rumor. Tell me, will the people who believe in the God of Gu believe in the God of Gu, or will they believe in the Longevity Gu, which is an incarnation of the God of Gu?”
Li Shisan and Hua Rui said in unison, "Of course we believe in the Gu God!"
The Longevity Gu is just a legend, an incarnation of the legendary Gu God. If the real Gu God were to descend, who would still believe in a legendary clone? At that point, wouldn't the Gu God's word be law?
Their eyes lit up immediately.
Lu Yangyang tapped the table with her fingertip: "That's right, if the true Gu God descends, there will naturally be no more Longevity Gu!"
"But none of us know what the Gu God looks like, so how can we make the Gu God descend?" Everyone still found it unbelievable.
Lu Yangyang's gaze shifted, landing on Ajiao outside the door, before returning to Yin Yueling: "I have a way, but I need Ajiao's cooperation. Yueling, can you do it?"
“Of course, Ah Jiao and I grew up together and are very close. It listens to me the most!” Yin Yueling immediately said.
"Then there's no problem, just watch me!" Lu Yangyang said confidently.
"What are you up to?" Wen Qingqing asked, puzzled.
Lu Yangyang blinked lightly: "It's a secret."
"But before that, we still need to find out some news about the capital. It would be best if we could get the news to King Yuechuan's ears."
“I have a way,” Yin Yueling interjected.
The group looked at her with suspicion.
Yin Yueling proudly raised her chin: "I am the most talented saintess in Miao territory. If I want to enter the royal city, who will stop me?"
