The words had almost spread, and soon after came the news that Xue Ji had been captured by Dong Qin, and everyone sighed.

"This Yukihime played an important role in fighting against the Imperial family for Tokugawa. For someone who is so infatuated with Tokugawa, Tokugawa should save Yukihime, right?"

"Who knows? What if Tokugawa is ungrateful?"

"If he is ungrateful, he really doesn't deserve to be this king. Xue Ji has done so much for him. I heard that Xue Ji refused many people for him!"

"..."

It's a rumor in itself. From the beginning, Xue Ji was infatuated with Tokugawa, and then it evolved into what other infatuated things Xue Ji did for him.

The rumors are spreading wildly.

For the people of Eastern Qin, this was a good thing, but for Tokugawa, it was a big deal.

"You trash!"

Fuso, in the palace hall, Tokugawa was wearing a dragon robe. He threw the memorial in his hand at the person in front of him, and his face showed endless anger.

When the rumor spread, Tokugawa sent people to find the whereabouts of Yukihime.

But after so many days, they didn't have any clues. Now when they heard that Xue Ji was captured by Dong Qin, they could no longer hold back their anger.

These days, Tokugawa prayed every day that Xue Ji would not be in Dongqin.

But...

It would be impossible for Tokugawa not to save her. To save her... In a place like Dongqin, just think about it and you will know that if he goes there, there will be a dragnet waiting for him.

"Your Majesty, those people from Eastern Qin are cunning and cunning. Now we should try to rescue Xue Ji first." One person said while cupping his hands.

"Do I need you to remind me?"

Save? How to save?

Tokugawa is now in dire straits. He originally felt that those rumors were too bizarre, and coupled with Xue Ji's disappearance, he vaguely felt that it had nothing to do with Dong Qin, and he prayed every day that Xue Ji was not in Dong Qin.

Praying is useless, God is not on his side.

"Your Majesty, if you don't save Empress Xue Ji now, what will the people of the seven countries say about you? What should we Fusang do?" The ministers lowered their heads and their bodies were trembling.

If we don't save him, people in the seven countries will feel that Tokugawa is so ungrateful, and if they want to go to other countries to discuss things, won't they be turned away?

If they are alone and helpless, something big will happen.

The more I think about the ministers, the more difficult my life will be in the future.

Is it too late to run now?

Tokugawa had a cold face, he couldn't help clenching his hands, his eyes were dark, he didn't have the slightest clue at the moment, and he felt that the people of Dong Qin were really too powerful.

He had no confidence in winning the battle that he originally had a chance to win.

Suddenly, a minister came forward. After bowing slightly to Tokugawa, he spoke with ease, "Your Majesty, I have a plan. I wonder if Your Majesty could you hear it?"

"explain."

"Dong Qin has kidnapped Lady Xue Ji, we can also kidnap Dong Qin's princes and the like, one person for another, and the people of Dong Qin will definitely let him go."

The minister's words made Tokugawa's eyes brighten.

This is a good idea.

At the end, the minister added, "It is best to be a prince, so that we can not only rescue Empress Xue Ji, but also get more benefits from the people of Eastern Qin."

The prince was very important to the Eastern Qin Dynasty.

Hearing that the current prince was already acting as an agent of the government, many officials in the Eastern Qin Dynasty praised him highly, saying that he was the best choice for the future emperor.

If such a person is kidnapped, Dong Qin will definitely panic and surrender obediently.

"It's a good idea." Tokugawa nodded slightly.
