Sima You Yue looked at the people in the prison and said to An Xi: “Those who have colluded with foreign enemies, deal with it accordingly. As for those who want to take advantage of the fire to rob and fall into trouble, shut them in prison so that you can serve it as a warning to others.”

She didn’t know what was the exact punishment for those found to have colluded with forerign enemies. They would definitely have death as an ending but it just depended on whether it was a quick death or a painful one.

The Wei Clan was relieved when they heard what she said. As long as they could live, it was alright. Where there is life, there is hope.

However, they had thought of things too simply. During the time they were detained, the Hua Clan had already eaten up all of the Zheng Clan’s fortune, and also attacked the Wei Clan’s property. When the key members of the Wei Clan were released from prison, there was only an empty shell left in the Wei Clan.

After the Hua Clan absorbed the properties of the Zheng Clan and the Wei Clan, their economic prowess grew. With a lot of money, that meant that there were also more resources and their entire strength had been improved and the clan had been lifted to an entirely new level.

The gap between the two clans grew even bigger. In addition to their bad reputation, they went downhill and could not even be ranked.

Of course, these were all things that happened later, and Sima You Yue never thought that her decision today would affect the outcome of the three families.

After they left the prison, Hua Xu asked: “What did the Young Princess find out? What do we need to do?”

“I don’t need anything for the time being, the Hua Clan can take care of their own affairs. If necessary, I will come to you again.” Sima You Yue refused their offer.

Hua Xu knew that this meant that she had rejected their offer. However, the Hua Clan was really busy now, they still had a lot of aftermath to deal with, so he did not delay any more and left.

“Let’s go to a place where we can talk.” Sima You Yue said to An Xi.

An Xi understood that she must have seen something important in Seventeen’s memory and immediately led them to his study.

“Duke An, their plan was to deal with the Hua Clan first, then swallow the property of the Hua Clan and deal with the Wei Clan after. After that has all been achieved, the ultimate goal was to then let Zheng Wei Ming deal with you.” Sima You Yue said.

“To deal with me? Western Verge Region is not a very important place, so why did they choose this place?” An Xi was puzzled.

“Perhaps it is precisely because this location is not an important one that they intend to pry open a gap and decide to start from here.” Sima You Yue said, “Not only here, but also some other places. I think their purpose should be to break into all these places and connect them into one piece. They should be planning to break through the boundary.”

“Then what other places are in their plans?”

“Seventeen doesn’t know this. They are independent of each other, in order to prevent one place from failing and affecting other places.” Sima You Yue said, “But I think, since this method was used here, other places should also be using similar methods. Go and check the recent turbulence in the neighbouring regions and there should be some clues.”

“I will have someone investigate immediately.” An Xi said that he was about to get up, and was stopped by Sima You Yue.

“You can deal with that a little later.” Sima You Yue said, “Have you caught all those people over the past two days?”

“All were arrested, but the interrogation was useless, they didn’t say anything.” An Xi said, “I’m afraid that Young Princess still needs to personally come out.”

What she did previously really shocked him. With such a hand, why was there still a need to worry that the interrogation had no results?

“I have some uncertain news when I probed Seventeen’s memories and I need to check with those people.”

“But those people’s status is not as high as the Seventeen, will they know anything?”

“Let’s give it a try.” Sima You Yue was not sure, “Those people didn’t follow them, maybe they know some gossip.”

“Then I will have someone bring them up.”
