Chapter 44 News from Liangzhou City

en Your Majesty yet."Feng Zhen's words went unanswered. Zhang Liyang remained silent, standing there motionless.Looking at Zhang Liyang's lack of response, Feng Zhen seemed more satisfied and nodded....In Xue Lin Garden, Mu Yinghua sat beside Zhang Liyang, "Did he really say that"

"Hmm."

"Alright," Mu Yinghua nodded, then took out a letter from beside her and handed it to Zhang Liyang, "This is the decree for posthumously conferring upon Xue An. Take a look."

Mu Yinghua looked at the document in her hand, a trace of unwillingness in her eyes. Her unwillingness stemmed from the fact that Xue An, this bully who victimized both men and women, was awarded the title of valiant hero. This was the greatest injustice to those who had been bullied!

Reaching out to take the envelope, Zhang Liyang directly shook his palm, a fiery red glow flared up, and the envelope in his hand turned into ashes. "A depraved scoundrel, how could he possibly be worthy of the word 'brave'!"

Looking at the ashes on the ground, Mu Yinghua was a little surprised, "But you already promised the Xue family, if the Xue family knew..."

"Your Highness, a person like the Xue family won't live long. Even if I tell him to be enfeoffed as a Duke after he dies, what good would it do"

After staring at Zhang Liyang for a while, Mu Yinghua covered her mouth and smiled, "You're such a bad person."

"But wouldn't we offend the Jia family if we borrowed someone to avenge his son"

Xue Baosheng's request was that the Xue family lacked military strength and wanted to use Mu Yinghua's power to fight against the Jia family.

Of course, this is a superficial request. In reality, Xue Baosheng's intention was to drag Mu Yinghua onto his ship, using her as a shield when the time came. With Mu Yinghua as his backing, there was no way the Xue family could lose.

"Your Highness, have you forgotten We already offended the Jia family."

Recalling Zhang Liyang's charade of being a bandit to steal from the Jia family, Mu Yinghua rubbed her temples with a headache and sighed, "You men are truly complicated."

"Your Highness, please rest assured, we won't directly confront the Jia family. We will use Xue An's death as an excuse and apprehend the murderer throughout the city!"

The Jia family isn't stupid; they naturally wouldn't admit to killing the commander of the Pan Mountain camp. After all, that would be outright rebellion. So the Jia family would inevitably hide those guards, which is a way of indirectly helping the Xue family weaken the Jia family's power.

"Master, there's news from Liangzhou City."

Just as Zhang Liyang and Mu Yinghua were discussing the details, Yuan Li suddenly brought news from Liangzhou City.

"News from Liangzhou City What news"

Since Zhang Liyang arrived in Feilong City, the only time he contacted Liangzhou City was when he used the 100,000 taels of silver originally intended for establishing a Heiyufu stronghold to buy food.

But now that news has come from Liangzhou City, naturally making Zhang Liyang quite surprised.

“It was brought by the city lord.”

Upon hearing the news from Yu Chengshi, Zhang Liyang's face also turned grave. "What news did the City Lord send"

"The city lord said they found a group of unknown people outside Liangzhou City. After investigation, they discovered that they came from our side."

"The city lord sent a message, asking if we need help here."

"Who is on our side"

Zhang Liyang frowned. He didn't know why people from Feilong City would come to Liangzhou, and even more so, why they came secretly.

Why

Zhang Liyang's mind raced, wondering what in Liangzhou City was worth paying attention to from Feilong City.

Bang, bang, bang...

His fingers lightly tapped the table, Zhang Liyang sat there silently.

Knowing Zhang Liyang was brainstorming, Mu Yinghua and Yuan Li also fell silent.

Slap!

Suddenly, Zhang Liyang's palm slapped onto the table with a crisp sound, "I got it."

"What"

"Your Highness, do you still remember that when we were distributing grain, we said that we had already made arrangements with Liangzhou City, and the subsequent food supplies would be delivered from Liangzhou City continuously."

But we all know that we have no contact with people in Liangzhou City to talk about this, but some people don't know.

Who

"I don't know who they are," Zhang Liyang shook his head, "But I know why they went!"

As the conversation became clearer, Zhang Liyang also grasped the ins and outs of the situation at this time.

"Now we know it was the Jia family who set fire to the Xue family's granary. At this time, someone else ran from Feilong City to Liangzhou City. What for It was naturally for the food we mentioned that was transported from Liangzhou City!"

“They want to cut off all the food supply routes to Flying Dragon City!” Mu Yinghua also reacted at this time, “They are all from the Jia family!”

Subsequently, Mu Yinghua continued, "However, we haven't had any dealings with Liangzhou City, so they are bound to come up empty-handed!"

"This is the most important thing!" Zhang Liyang knocked on the table again. "If they knew we didn't have any dealings with Liangzhou City, they would know we were lying. Following this line of thought, they are very likely to deduce that the people who robbed Jia's goods at the time were us!"

Upon hearing Zhang Liyang's deduction, Mu Yinghua's face showed a hint of anxiety. She knew that all the contradictions stemmed from Zhang Liyang seizing Jia's goods. If people found out it was Zhang Liyang who did it, they would naturally know that everything was his scheme!

By then, under the united front of three parties, Mu Yinghua's life would naturally be secure. However, Feilong City would inevitably descend into chaos, and all her efforts would be in vain. She, Mu Yinghua, would once again return to that cold imperial palace.

"Stop them!" A cold glint flashed in Zhang Liyang's eyes. "As long as this group of people don't enter Feilong City, everything will be in time!"

"Yuan Li."

"Sir, here!"

"Bring a hundred of my brothers with me out of the city. The rest of you stay here to assist the Xue family, as we agreed. We are only responsible for capturing and killing the bandits who rebelled against Captain Xue. Everything else is none of our concern!"

"Sir, should you bring more people over there" Yuan Li looked at Zhang Liyang with some worry.

"No need." Zhang Liyang shook his head. "There are too many people around, this matter shouldn't be too eye-catching."

"Time is of the essence. Arrange for people to disguise themselves and leave the city in batches now. Have them wait for me at the abandoned mountain three miles outside the city gate."

Seeing Zhang Liyang had made a decision, Yuan Li didn't say any more. He bowed respectfully and then immediately went down to give orders.

Having gone over his thoughts again, Zhang Liyang found that he hadn't forgotten anything. He then began to prepare to leave.

Fortunately, Feilong City only has two city gates. Zhang Liyang only needs to guard the gate leading to Liangzhou City.

"Zhang Liyang, be careful."

"Don't worry, Your Highness," Zhang Liyang smiled at Mu Yinghua and then continued, "During the time I am gone, Your Highness should not distribute food. Just stay here in Xuelin Garden and don't go anywhere else. Everything else is taken care of!"

Knowing that Zhang Liyang was worried about his safety, Mu Yinghua nodded, "I will. I'll be here waiting for you to come back!"ter Dao, you said that this time you came to talk about the secret cauldron matter. Everyone wants to ask for your advice.""Yes, Master Daoist, please tell us more."Seeing everyone get straight to the...
