'But because of the so-called Pirate Alliance in Poshisu Country, Lv Jiunan hadn't taken them out of Shu State, which was why he planned to ask the Bright Moon Building for help.'
'Of course, Liu Hong and his people might have been the ones who requested this.'
'Second, Lin Huai'an and Liu Taofang had teamed up to manipulate grain prices in Shu State. When Liu Hong found out, he then conspired against Lin Huai'an.'
'That's not right.'
'The sequence of events is wrong.'
Chen Yi shook his head to himself. 'The timing is wrong.'
'Liu Hong must have found out what Liu Taofang was doing ahead of time, which is why he had those barbarian slaves burn the granary before they escaped.'
'That would make sense.'
At this thought, a cold, sharp glint flashed in Chen Yi's eyes as he looked at the Painted Boat.
'He hadn't expected Liu Hong to be audacious enough to collude with the Barbarian Race.'
