Chapter 920: Yu Jin’s Plan

“You don’t know?”         

    

Ye Jian nodded.     

Yu Jin smiled and didn’t press for answer. Actually, she herself also didn’t know which side she should actually choose.     

Fei Yang Kingdom had strong military and their economic had been growing during the time of that incompetent emperor because of the capable ministers that had been spread out. Even though his goal might be only to let those whom he liked to stay in the palace, it worked well in the end.     

And after the turmoil in Fei Yang Kingdom, the ministers were actually more united than ever. Some conflicts were still here and there, but in overall, they all listened to the young Emperor, Emperor Yang Zhou.     

Zhang Xu Kingdom has always had strong military and also various medical achievement that was far more than the others. However, rather than making medicines, they were instead making poisons.     

There were several renowned families specialized in medicine in Zhang Xu Kingdom. And many organizations based on poison was born. The most powerful one was under the royal family’s hand and helped during war.     

That was also one of the few reason why Zhang Xu Kingdom was often called as despicable.     

They were using various medical arts, some which were actually forbidden, in order to be able to win the war no matter what the cost. And their already strong foundation helped them to make sure that they would have the advantage against others.     

And for the strong and influential people?     

There were so many of them in both kingdoms.     

Yu Jin didn’t even know whether her decision was correct or not, but she preferred Fei Yang Kingdom winning compared to Zhang Xu. At the very least, that was her wishes from the bottom of her heart.     

“It’s a gamble. If we sided with the right person when it’s too late, the Mountain Tribe wouldn’t be able to get any benefit.” Yu Jin jumped down the table. “Now is the right time when neither side showed their achievement yet.”     

Ye Jian was silent.     

She didn’t understand how Yu Jin’s mind work. However, she acknowledged the fact that she was stupider compared to Yu Jin and thus, unable to fully understand what the other party actually planned.     

Even the elders were often fell for her pranks when she was young.     

Her way of thinking was different from others, but it was also much better compared to them as she was able to think things outside the box. That was what allowed her to always be a step ahead from the others.     

“If that’s your order, I’ll follow it.”     

Yu Jin grinned. “Go have some rest, you deserve it.”     

“Yes!”     

As Yu Jin came out, she saw Nan Hua had already cleaned up the fire that she made. She arched her eyebrows. “So fast?”     

“It’s enough.”     

Her men wouldn’t dare to relax in the slightest bit, so she only needed to show the smoke signal for a short period of time. If they dared to relax, the next thing they knew was that they would be sent to the prison for Nan San to experiment on them.     

Thus, none of them dared to relax.     

That was if they still want to live well.     

“Then that’s good. Have you eaten?”         

    

“Yes.”     

She brought some rations with her when she came here. After all, she was not sure what kind of meal that the Mountain Tribe usually provided. And even if she didn’t have anything, she could pick some herbs and cooked them.     

There were a few edible plants that she had encountered on her way here.     

“In that case, we’ll go right away.”     

Go?     

Nan Hua looked at Yu Jin with confusion, but she merely pointed at the front. However, they hadn’t left when Wu Shan came while carrying a deer in his shoulder. It seemed that he had decided to hunt first before returning here.     

The Xia Mountains were vast.     

Even though the Mountain Tribes had thousands of people, they couldn’t possibly occupy the entire place.     

There were still a lot of wild animals and hunting was considered to be a common method for them to search for food. And with so many people to feed, they naturally had to raise their livestock too.     

Hunting was only something that they do from time to time.     

“Are you going Jin Jie?” Wu Shan asked.     

“Mhm, it’s almost evening, so the sunlight will be gone soon.” Yu Jin nodded.     

  No matter how fast she and Nan Hua had been when they were climbing the mountain and rushing back and forth, it was impossible for them to use that little time. Several hours had passed from the time when Nan Hua first arrived here.     

When she came here, it was actually morning.     

After all, climbing and descending three mountains were very tiring. Nan Hua simply didn’t sleep for the night as there was no really save place without any patrols in this area. If she slept, she wouldn’t be able to completely cover her presence.     

So, she hadn’t slept for the entire night.     

It was not the first time for her.     

Because of that, Nan Hua didn’t have that much qualm and didn’t even look that tired as she agreed with whatever Yu Jin wanted.     

“Where are you going?”     

“I’m going to scout the border with Zhang Xu Kingdom. You’ll prepare 40,000 men for us to launch an attack tomorrow.”     

Wu Shan was speechless.     

They were really going to attack Zhang Xu Kingdom?     

Mountain Tribe had a lot of people, but many of them would usually stay in the village in order to take care of the women and children. They didn’t have so many soldiers who could be deployed at will.     

40,000 was already quite a lot.     

“Alright, I’ll smoke the meat and brought some for you for breakfast tomorrow.”         

    

“Awesome! You’re the best.”     

“Yes, yes, I know that.”     

“Shameless.” Yu Jin snorted then waved her hand. “I’m going then.”     

Wu Shan only shook his head then began to take care of the deer in his hand.
