The reason the Xiao family was actually because they heard that General Ling achieved a great victory over Western Han and so they were here to congratulate him.” Ling Jian had a strange expression on his face.
“Bad reason!” Ling Tian snorted, “But, bad reason is better than nothing!”
The reason given by the ambassadors of Western Han and Eastern Zhao was even more ridiculous. They were actually saying that they were here to convey their condolences to NanGong Le! Since when did NanGong Le become so famous?” Ling Jian's facial expression grew even more attractive. Beside him, Ling Chen was already giggling.
“Err ...” The muscles on Ling Tian's face started to wrinkle and he also laughed out loud, “I never imagined that this NanGong Le also had so many faces! I'm amazed! I'm amazed!”
What he naturally admired was not how big of a face NanGong Le had. He was amazed at how the faces of Western Han and Eastern Zhao were too thick!
Another reason was at least a hundred times better than this one! However, the two kingdoms chose to use the most disgusting excuse! They clearly did not place the Sky Bearing Kingdom in their sight at all; furthermore, the density of their hostility could also be seen.
“Cih!!” Ling Tian said hatefully, “They should go to South Zheng if they want to offer their condolences to NanGong Le right? NanGong Le only died in the Sky Bearing Empire; even if he was buried in the Sky Bearing Empire, it would only stain the land of our nation! Both Western Han and Eastern Zhao actually dared to be so uncontrollable! It seems they still have big ambitions. If we don't teach them a good lesson, they might end up making trouble.”
“Wei North, Meng LiGe.. ah ah ah, that was actually him.” Ling Tian muttered to himself while thinking.
Ling Chen asked curiously, “Young noble, do you know this Meng LiGe? Is he someone like Master Ye as well? ”
Ling Tian laughed, “Chen’er, you think too much of this Meng LiGe. For someone like brother Ye, how many such characters could there be in the world! That Meng LiGe was also a good character; not only was she full of ideas and precise in her predictions, she could be said to be one of the most famous characters in the world today. Especially ... that Meng LiGe is the younger brother of Mr. Qin; both share the same teacher, Mr. RuQu.”
Ling Jian and Ling Chen then replied with a length of ‘ohhhh’.
Ling Tian then looked towards the sky, as if he was trying to make a decision, as his expression seemed dark the next instant and bright. After a while, he smiled and said, “Forget it, forget it, let nature take its course.”
Ling Jian and Ling Chen then stared at each other, confused about what Ling Tian was thinking. They then heard Ling Tian ask, “Ling Jian, how far is this army to Sky Bearing Empire?”
Ling Jian thought for a moment before replying, “Meng LiGe of Northern Wei might already be in the Sky Bearing Empire. As for the rest, half of them will arrive tonight and the rest should already be here by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. At that time, they should all be collected here!”
“Meng LiGe is already in the Sky Bearing Empire?” Ling Tian asked doubtfully, “The NanGong and Northern Wei families should have the same distance as the Sky Bearing Kingdom, right? Why was the NanGong family, who had just lost their son, even less proactive than Northern Wei? Meng LiGe actually managed to arrive first? Something must be wrong! So wrong! Ling Jian, investigate! Investigate it quickly! ”
Ling Tian's instinct told him that Northern Wei's actions were a little abnormal. No matter what, regardless of the speed of news dissemination or the speed of their troops, Northern Wei should not have been here before the NanGong family! But now, Northern Wei was actually here first!
This matter is so strange! There must be another reason behind it!
“Tell the Violent Wind Gang to send all their people. I want to know every detail about everyone who entered this capital! There is not a single detail that should be missed! ” As Ling Tian said this, his tone was very serious and with no room for negotiation. Ling Jian knew what such a tone meant. Therefore, he quickly acknowledged the order with a bow!
Ling Tian put his hands behind his back and paced around the room. As if thinking of something, he turned around and said, “Ling Chen, where is the little daughter of the Yu family?”
Ling Chen replied, “He is said to be at the residence of Minister Wei. I heard that Miss Wei XuanXuan was also punished by her mother for visiting our Ling family too often.” As Ling Chen replied, he looked towards Ling Tian with a mischievous smile.
Do wrong! Ling Tian's eyes widened and fell silent for a long time, before finally answering, “My famous reputation dragged someone down.”
Ling Chen started giggling and Ling Jian could not help but smile.
Outside the southern gate of Sky Bearing City, a huge cloud of dust was kicked into the air, as the elite troops dressed in black with black horses galloped with thunderous commotion.
The man leading the troops raised his hand and the horses behind him stopped neatly, setting themselves into an orderly formation. The lack of unnecessary movement fully demonstrates the discipline of these forces and how extraordinary they are. But no matter how orderly they were, they could not avoid kicking the cloud of dust, making it seem like the troops were in the middle of the whirlpool at sea.
Near the city gate, Yang Lei and Yang Zheng, who were already waiting there, cupped their fists politely, “The second master of the NanGong family is here from a distant place. Our Yang family has been waiting for your arrival. We hope the second master will forgive us for not picking you up from afar. ”
The person leading the troops had a black and tanned face, large eyes with thick eyebrows, a face full of messy beards, tight muscles on his face, and a fierce-looking face. Holding a jet-black horse whip, he looked like a black chimpanzee sitting on a horse from afar.
He then rolled his eyes and without lowering his horse, he asked arrogantly, “Where is Yang Kong Qun? Why isn't he here to accept me personally? Did he underestimate me?” His tone was filled with dissatisfaction along with an interrogative tone. He did not hide his dissatisfaction at all, as if he was extremely frustrated by the fact that Yang Kong Qun did not accept him personally.
Yang Lei's face stiffened when he heard those words. It doesn't make sense! Your NanGong Family is here from afar and is a guest in our Sky Bearing Kingdom. I was the eldest son in the Yang family and, while he was a servant, Yang Zheng was my father's trusted aide. For the Yang family we sent the two of us to receive you, it has already given your NanGong Family a big face! You still dare to be rude and look like you want to blow up your boss?!
Yang Zheng then stepped forward and said with an apologetic smile, “The Family Head is currently planning the arrest of the brave criminal who dared to kill the young noble NanGong. Now that there are some clues, he cannot take the time to accept you personally. I am looking for second master understanding.” He then sent an eye signal to Yang Lei as a way to tell Yang Lei to stay calm.
“Hahaha... some pointers? Catching criminals? What a joke!” NanGong TianHu laughed out loud, “It would be strange if that family You can catch the culprit!” He was clearly trying to imply that the Yang family was the culprit and there was no need for them to act so hypocritically anymore.
While Yang Zheng looked like a muddled head, he was actually very sharp. He then replied with a feigned bitter laugh, “There may be a big misunderstanding in this matter. On behalf of my Family Head, I invited the second master to our Yang house to discuss the matter and clear up the misunderstanding.
NanGong TianHu then chuckled and said with sarcasm, “Then when this old man dies, you guys can catch that criminal again? Hahaha, what a joke! What a joke!” His face then turned serious, “We will not stay in the Yang family. Tell the Head of Your Family, Yang KongQun. Tomorrow, this old man will visit your Yang family personally! If my niece suffers a complaint when she's there, hmph, hmph! ”
Without waiting for an answer from Yang Lei, the whip in his hand had already landed on his horse as he pointed and ordered, “Sign into town!”
The black cavalry then charged into the city like rushing water, passing through Yang Lei and Yang Zheng. Occasionally, some troops would glare at the two of them with cold gazes filled with hatred.
On the side of the city gate, the faces of the guards were all amazed. Since when did they see such a great army?
Yang Lei and Yang Zheng then turned around and looked at each other. Yang Zheng's face was filled with worry while Yang Lei's face was pale with anger, as his body began to tremble with burning anger in his heart, “What an arrogant person! He actually dared to be so unreasonable! ”
Yang Zheng then sighed depressedly, “If he was really arrogant, everything would be handled easily. I'm just afraid he's acting arrogant.. If that's the case, things will get a lot worse!”.
Yang Lei did not have the slightest bit of talent in such a field and was completely confused by what Yang Zheng said. Just as he was about to ask Yang Zheng, he heard the sound of horses galloping from the city. A group of horses then approached the city gate slowly, with a friendly man, eyes looking like bright stars and a face like precious jade, leading the army. This person was the young noble of the Ling family, Ling Tian!
The thing that made the two of them the most disgusted was the fact that there was a beautiful girl dressed in white, with a bright smile and spring like optimism, sitting in Ling Tian's arms.
Ling Tian was also very depressed; the Xiao family sent a message to the Ling family to say that they would arrive at the Sky Pads Empire. Old Madam Ling then sent Ling Tian out to receive their guests and instructed Ling Tian to take good care of Miss Xiao. If he did not take good care of her, Old Madam Ling would give Ling Tian a good share of the family law!
Helpless, Ling Tian took Ling Chen with him to accept his guest and decided to hug Ling Chen onto his own horse. While Ling Chen felt that this was not a proper thing to do, he would never break Ling Tian's orders. Furthermore, while his mouth said that he did not want to, his heart was completely overjoyed! Along the way, they had attracted the attention of everyone passing by. With Ling Tian's famous reputation as a silk trouser, they naturally would not dare to appoint him to comment! However, Ling Chen's jade-like face was still completely dyed red. Helpless, he could only immerse his face into Ling Tian's chest. At the same time, he also hoped that this moment would last forever.
As if he had not seen Yang Zheng and Yang Lei who were near the city gate, Ling Tian raised his whip as an order to his bodyguards as he arrived. Forty to fifty guards behind him then responded by walking out each one with a bucket of water! At that moment, the hundred feet more surrounding the city gate were filled with water. At the same time, a scent was released from the water, making one feel an indescribable sense of comfort.
Some people then stepped out to put a thick red carpet on the ground that had not dried. A few others then took out a large umbrella, with a carefully crafted jade table placed under the umbrella and a plate of fresh fruits on it. As the sun set, an alluring light could be seen coming from the jade table.
