Zhu Yu and Lu Qing quickly exchanged a glance.
Their previous encounter on the side adjacent to Lan Land and Shuo Land was also related to the farmlands of the Lan Land civilians being forcibly seized.
At that time, it was the Fake Castle Master and his group who forcibly took over the Immortal Castle and caused harm to many households within, and Zhu Yu and others speculated that it was due to Prince Lan's lack of oversight, resulting in local officials being either incompetent or colluding with bandits.
Now, after hearing the remark from the innkeeper's wife, they have a new suspicion—could it be that behind this chaos, it's not just Prince Lan's ignorance, but even his tacit approval or involvement?
But what advantage does this bring?
Of course, there's a timeline Zhu Yu cannot help but notice—all of this chaos traces back to over twenty years ago.
And the upheaval in Lu Qing's family occurred over twenty years ago as well.
