Chapter 1214: Chapter 1205: The Hidden Mastermind Behind Kidnapping the Princess_1 Chapter 1214: Chapter 1205: The Hidden Mastermind Behind Kidnapping the Princess_1 The two little elves were busy in the vegetable patch, giggling and shuttle back and forth.
Behind their plump little bodies trailed a long string of radishes, greens, potatoes, and tomatoes, which greatly amazed Yi Xian'er, who had just entered the Orb.
Little Kingfisher fluttered its wings and flew back from the outside, landing on the eaves to send a message to its master through their spiritual connection.
Lin Qingluo's mind slightly stirred, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared above the vegetable patch.
“Master, I've found out who was behind the abduction of the Princess of Xijin.”
Little Kingfisher flew down from mid-air, eager to tell his master the news he and the other birds had discovered.
“So quickly?”
Lin Qingluo's eyes brightened, unable to hide his delight.
Little Kingfisher was extremely proud: “Of course, gossip is easy for me.”
“Who is it?”
Lin Qingluo had a guess and wanted to confirm: “Is it the princess of Xichu who came here for the marriage alliance?”
“No.”
Little Kingfisher gave a different answer: “It's the Xichu Monarch.”
“Him?”
Lin Qingluo was disgusted: “A ruler of a country would actually do such a filthy deed?”
Little Kingfisher looked at him with disdain: “This man is very cunning. He kidnapped the Princess of Xijin, ostensibly to sabotage the marriage alliance between the two countries, but in fact, he harbors even more despicable thoughts.”
“Oh?”
Lin Qingluo raised his eyebrows, full of disgust: “What wicked thoughts does he have to harm an innocent young girl?”
“It's a long story, and it begins with the national conditions of both Xichu and Xijin.”
Without waiting for his master's further questions, Little Kingfisher recounted everything he had learned from his investigation.
“Xijin and Xichu are neighboring countries, one dominating the southwest, the other a major country in the northwest. Although the size of the two countries is not too different, their national conditions are quite different.”
“The southwest has abundant rainfall, fertile land, and a prosperous economy. Xijin is strong and powerful. The northwest, on the other hand, is mostly arid with infertile land.”
“One-third of Xichu's land is desert, another one-third is a snowy plateau with an altitude of over ten thousand meters, and only one-third is suitable for human habitation.”
“Moreover, this one-third of the land borders several countries, including Fengqi. The other smaller countries are not problematic, but the biggest threat comes from Xijin.”
“The people of the two countries have different customs and religious beliefs, which often lead to conflicts and small-scale border wars.”
“Xichu Monarch ordered the abduction of the Princess of Xijin to ruin her reputation not only to prevent the marriage alliance between Xijin and Fengqi but also for a more insidious reason.”
“He wants to take advantage of the failure of Princess Xijin's marriage and her being despised by others, proposing a marriage alliance with the Xijin Monarch, and make the Princess, whose religious beliefs are different, his wife – all just to humiliate Xijin.”

“He's asking for death!”
Lin Qingluo sneered. At this moment, he could already imagine how furious the Prince of Xijin and Fourth Brother would be when they learned the truth.
They would very likely send troops to exterminate Xichu on the spot.
“Master, are we going to war?”
Little Kingfisher noticed a change in his master's emotions through their spiritual connection, and his eyes sparkled with excitement: “Since the Xichu Monarch is heartless, we can be ruthless and simply wipe him out.”
“You, always so excited when it comes to war.”
Lin Qingluo smiled, poking the little creature's head: “Keep an eye on the Xichu Monarch and pass a message to Brother Zhan that I need to see him.”
“Alright.”
With a clear task, Little Kingfisher immediately perked up, circling the vegetable patch twice before eagerly flying off.
“Ah, this little fellow, can't sit still for a moment.”
Lin Qingluo smiled, and with a slight thought, sent the little creature out of the Primordial Orb.
