His words were filled with sincerity. Feng Ruoyi and Feng Ruojie were shocked and looked at him together. This old geezer actually wanted to marry our little sister?
Feng Lingbo cast a sidelong glance at Tao Yan, feeling depressed. You're already so old, yet you want to marry my daughter? You actually want to take advantage of my family?
The corner of Nong Zhangguang's mouth twitched. He knew that even if Feng Ruonan wanted to marry, it was unlikely that she would marry this person. He really wanted to tell Tao Yan's wife about his words and see how the Tao Family would react.
"Let's talk about the future later." Feng Lingbo stopped the topic to avoid going astray. Talking about his daughter's marriage before the matter was even settled would be straying too far. "Shang Chaozong has more than a dozen personal guards by his side. They are loyal to Shang Chaozong, and they are all veterans of Ying Yang and Wu Lie Graud. They have been on the battlefield for a long time, so they cannot be underestimated. This time, it's fine if we don't make a move. Once we do, we must take them down with lightning speed. We can't delay any longer. Once the Heavenly Jade School's reinforcements arrive, everyone will have to bear the consequences! "
His words were equivalent to making a decision. He was going to make a move!
After a secret discussion, they quickly dispersed and went back to choose their own capable and reliable men. Their top priority was not to leak the news …
What would come would eventually come. Feng Lingbo personally brought the urgent report to the backyard and found Chen Tingxiu and Feng Entai, who were talking in the pavilion. He presented the urgent report to them, "Elders, the hundreds of men from the three sects are only a few dozen li away from Changping City. They will arrive soon."
The two elders took turns to read the urgent report. Chen Tingxiu, who was in charge here, stood up, "Junior Brother Feng, you stay here and guard. I will go to the South City Gate and see how bold the three sects are."
"Alright!" Feng Entai nodded.
Not long after, Chen Tingxiu led a group of cultivators and flew over the roofs of the residences in the city, heading straight for the South City Gate.
The Heavenly Jade School disciples who stayed in Changping City left with Chen Tingxiu.
Coming out of the backyard, he saw Peng Yulan waiting under the eaves of a house. Feng Lingbo quickly walked over, saying in a low voice, "Elder Chen has already brought people to the south city gate, taking away most of the people."
Peng Yulan nodded slightly. "Once I divert my men away, you must act quickly on your side. If you cause a huge commotion, it won't take long for them to return from the city gate."
Feng Lingbo said, "Don't worry, I've prepared two thousand men. As long as you can move them away, they'll be able to kill them in an instant. There won't be any mistakes."
"I'll wait for your news."
"I'm also waiting for your news."
When the two of them passed by each other, they exchanged a few words and went their separate ways.
After returning to her courtyard, Peng Yulan summoned Shou Nian and told him to personally go and invite her daughter, Feng Ruonan.
Feng Lingbo, on the other hand, was pacing back and forth in the Political Affairs Hall. She was both nervous and excited, knowing that success or failure depended on this.
Before long, Feng Ruoyi, Feng Ruojie, Tao Yan, and Nong Zhangguang arrived.
Seeing the four of them, Feng Lingbo immediately waved his hands, indicating that there was no need for formalities. He walked up and asked, "Is everything prepared?"
Nong Zhangguang said, "Don't worry, Daren, the four of us have each picked five hundred elites. As long as we receive Daren's orders, we'll immediately rush to the target location to change defenses. Once the two thousand men charge in, those few people won't have a chance to survive!"
Feng Lingbo's gaze swept across them coldly, and he said in a low voice, "Remember, we must act quickly. Otherwise, when the Heavenly Jade Clan disciples rush back, not only will we lose the chance to act, we'll also be in big trouble. If we succeed, we'll be safe. If we fail, no one will have an easy time. "
Tao Yan said, "Don't worry, Daren. As long as we have enough time, we won't fail. The two thousand executioners are all equipped with bows and arrows. With so many arrows fired at the same time, those ten or twenty people won't be able to stop them. Moreover, the four of us will personally lead the charge, we definitely won't fail!"
Feng Ruoyi and Feng Ruojie's expressions were somewhat dignified. Although they had made up their minds, they couldn't be happy when they thought of the awkward situation when facing their younger sister in the future.
But the two of them also knew that their father was not only fighting for himself, but also for them. He was fighting for the entire Feng Clan. The arrow on the bowstring had to be released, the winner takes all!
Feng Lingbo nodded, "That's good. Wait for my signal, don't reveal any clues to arouse suspicion!"
"Yes!" The four of them cupped their hands and accepted the order.
In a house not far from the magistrate's office, separated from the magistrate's office by a quiet alley. Shou Nian, who came out from the magistrate's office's back door, came to visit alone.
As soon as Shou Nian appeared, Bai Yao also appeared like a ghost, blocking in front of Shou Nian.
Bai Yao didn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of this white-haired old butler. In terms of seniority, he was still his Martial Uncle. However, he was expelled from the sect because he violated the sect's rules in his early years. It was the current Sect Master who placed him in the Feng Clan, to prevent him from being reduced to a rogue cultivator.
Therefore, the relationship between this butler and the Heavenly Jade Sect was somewhat unclear. Although he was expelled from the sect, he was still under the protection of the sect. In fact, he was still a disciple of the Heavenly Jade Sect.
Bai Yao, who was holding the sword in his arms with a cold expression, loosened his arms and put down the sword to show respect. He calmly asked, "What's the matter?"
Shou Nian said, "Madam is looking for Miss, she wants Miss to go over."
Bai Yao turned back and waved his hand. A disciple flashed over. Bai Yao asked him to invite Feng Ruonan over, and didn't let Shou Nian enter the house.
The two of them confronted each other here for a while. The disciple who went to report brought Feng Ruonan, who looked slightly haggard.
Feng Ruonan asked Shou Nian, "Why is mother looking for me?"
Shou Nian smiled, "Madam didn't say. Miss will naturally know when you see her."
Feng Ruonan didn't think much of it. She also wanted to see the Feng Clan's people. However, during this time, the Feng Clan's people were a little guilty when facing her, and there was a hint of avoiding her.
Feng Ruonan left with Shou Nian like this. Bai Yao didn't stop her, and he had no reason to stop her.
Bai Yao turned around to look at Shang Shuqing, who had accompanied him here. He nodded slightly in greeting, then turned around and disappeared.
Shang Shuqing, who stopped far away, watched Feng Ruonan leave and also turned back.
During this time, she knew that sister-in-law was the most upset person stuck in the middle. She had been accompanying and comforting her, afraid that sister-in-law would take things too hard and have an accident.
Putting herself in their shoes, she was also a woman. If her family treated her like this, it would be hard for her to accept it.
Shang Chaozong and the others in the inner residence were very idle. Being trapped here, they couldn't not be idle even if they didn't want to, and they were worried in their hearts.
The movement of the group of cultivators in the nearby courtyard attracted the attention of the guards on this side. The guards who were keeping watch on the attic reported the situation to them.
Shang Chaozong and the others met together. Their understanding of the situation outside was limited, and they couldn't analyze anything. However, they could be sure that something must have happened for them to leave in such a shocking manner.
Shang Shuqing came and told them, "Brother, Peng Yulan just sent butler Shou Nian to invite sister-in-law over."
Shang Chaozong snorted coldly, "She is a member of the Feng Family. What's so strange about it?"
Lan Ruoting was a little helpless. Meng Shanming, who was sitting in the wheelchair, sighed, "Prince, Princess is not a bad person, but she has a bit of a man's character. Although her words and deeds often made the Prince unhappy in the early years, she has gradually changed for the Prince. This alone is enough to prove Princess's intention. Prince, there are many things Princess can't do. No one is more sad than her. You have to understand her! "
Meng Shanming spoke. It was considered as an uncle disciplining him. Shang Chaozong pursed his lips and didn't say anything.
However, he was really sick of it. In the early years, when he seized the power of Guang Guang Prefecture, Feng Ruonan quarreled with him and even fought with him. Now that the Feng Family wanted to harm him, Feng Ruonan didn't say anything …
In an ordinary house a few streets away from here, Yuan Gang climbed up the wall and watched a group of cultivators fly towards the direction of the south city gate.
His red face had been smeared into a bronze color. It would be too obvious if he didn't disguise himself.
The door of the small courtyard opened. Yuan Feng, who was disguised, came in with a basket. Yuan Gang looked back and jumped back into the small courtyard.
He closed the door and put down the basket. Yuan Feng quickly walked over and asked, "Boss, did you see that group of cultivators just now?"
Yuan Gang nodded and walked into the house. "According to the time, it should have been caused by the arrival of the three sects."
Back in the house, Yuan Gang took out a map from a bamboo pole by the wall and spread it out. It was a detailed map of the residences in Changping City. Spreading it out on the table, he stared at the map and asked, "Are there any movements from Feng Lingbo's men?"
Yuan Feng replied, "I don't see any movements at the moment. Boss, will Feng Lingbo really make a move on the Prince? "
Yuan Gang, "I don't know! But Daoye already made it clear that Heavenly Jade Sect doesn't dare to let anything happen to the Prince. What we really need to guard against is Feng Lingbo acting in desperation. "
Yuan Feng, "With Heavenly Jade Sect there, will Feng Lingbo have a chance to make a move?"
Yuan Gang, "No matter if there's a chance or not, keeping a close eye on his men is the right thing to do. Shang Chaozong was a military general who dared to charge and break through enemy lines. His skills were not bad, and his personal guards were also good fighters. Without the Heavenly Jade School's help, a hundred people might not be able to deal with them easily. So it's fine if Feng Lingbo doesn't make a move, but if he does, he won't just send a few people. Let the brothers keep a close eye on his men and report to me immediately if there's anything strange. "
"Understood." Yuan Feng agreed, but was a little conflicted, "Boss, we only came with a hundred people, Feng Lingbo's subordinates have already stationed a large number of troops in this city, the moment we fight with them, under the encirclement of the army, we have no chance of escaping!"
Yuan Gang looked up. "Are you afraid?"
Yuan Feng smiled bitterly. "I'm not afraid, but it's really too dangerous. Even if we make a move, we won't be able to save the Prince."
Yuan Gang, "Did I say we're going to fight them? You're thinking too much. Let's see what happens first. I won't let my brothers do something they know is impossible. "
… …
"Close the city gates!"
On the south city gate, the general on guard shouted. The commoners coming in and out were immediately blocked. The soldiers guarding outside the city immediately retreated. The heavy city gate was pushed shut by dozens of people.
Chen Tingxiu, who was sitting in the loft, walked out and stood in front of the wall with her hands behind her back. A group of Heavenly Jade Sect cultivators followed.
Everyone looked into the distance, only to see dust rising on the official road in front of them. Hundreds of riders galloped over, the rumbling of hooves gradually becoming clearer.
