Chapter 247 Enemy Attack

Lu Chaofeng smiled.

"What's a noble family?!"

"This world does not belong to any of your families, nor to the emperor alone! This world belongs to countless ordinary people! If you lose the love of the people, you will be the real loser."

He raised his chin and said this in a calm yet high-spirited manner. These two attitudes blended harmoniously in him.

"Lu Chaofeng, don't be so proud too soon!" The Qin family's patriarch was being held, and he turned around and glared at him, "Do you think you can win the hearts of the people like this? What a joke!"

"I have confiscated your homes and used the Qin family's property to rebuild the homes of the people in Jiangnan. I have returned the wealth you took from the people to them! All the people want is to live and work in peace. The Qin family has committed many sins and you have killed countless people. You really should go to hell to repent!"

"I go to hell to repent? Hahahahaha... Lu Chaofeng, I'll be waiting for you to accompany me in hell! Even if I turn into a ghost, I will watch you die! You won't die a good death!" His voice was full of resentment.

Lu Chaofeng waved his hand, and Wu Ming took him away.

Ah Shun approached, "My Lord, what should we do next?"

Lu Chaofeng smiled slightly, "Next, we have to show the people our determination! First, we will return the land that the Qin family has seized by various means over the years to them. Also, we will quickly count the warehouses and gather the grain and grass! Keep some for disaster relief, and transport some to the border as soon as possible."

"Yes, I understand."

Ah Shun took the order and left.

Lu Chaofeng turned around and entered the house. He looked at the picture of rivers and mountains in the Qin family's study, his heart filled with anger! The influence of the aristocratic families on the court and their exploitation of the people have reached an unacceptable level. If you want to change this situation, you must use an iron-blooded approach now, not get entangled with the other party, and directly cut off the lifeline of the family with a drastic move.

…

Su Chengnan led his men and spent the whole day busy with planting. Looking at the processed potatoes being buried in the soil, she felt hope in her heart!

Return to Su's house.

Su Linhua came in with two bowls of soup. She put the tray on the table, then turned around and closed the door.

"Eldest sister, take a break."

"Um."

Su Chengnan pinched his eyebrows tiredly, then picked up the porcelain spoon and took a sip of the soup.

"So fresh." she exclaimed.

"Not bad, I used some wild ginseng to make it, it's the best for nourishing the spirit and replenishing energy."

"Thank you." Su Chengnan said with emotion.

"We are sisters, so what's the point of saying thank you?" Su Linhua leaned her head over and hugged her gently, saying with some heartache: "If the countdown in the space hadn't been accelerating, you wouldn't have to work so hard."

Su Chengnan grabbed her hands and patted them twice. "Today's potatoes have been planted, and they are just waiting to take root and sprout. There is enough food in the city, but I'm afraid the meat won't last that long. Infrastructure work is all physical labor, and I'm worried that their bodies can't keep up."

Su Linhua thought for a moment and tried to comfort her: "Eldest sister, you think too much. Now it has been done very well! Before we came, most people here could not eat meat every day. Being able to have a full meal without being beaten or scolded and losing their lives is a significant change. Everything will be fine after the crisis and business recovery."

Su Chengnan nodded, "Well, you make sense."

But even so, the worry in her heart did not dissipate.

As the countdown approaches, the state of the space becomes more and more unstable. The previously expanded area will be swallowed up from time to time, forcing them to move out. It seems that they still need to be self-sufficient in the outside world, so that the Su family can truly settle down.

As the two were talking, there was a knock on the door.

"Miss, I have something urgent to discuss with you." It was Bingsan's voice.

Su Chengnan and Su Linhua looked at each other and said, "Come in."

The door was pushed open. Bingsan came in with a feather arrow in his hand and a nervous look on his face.

When Su Chengnan saw this thing, his heart subconsciously rose to his throat, and a bad premonition spread in his heart.

"Miss, this was just shot at the city gate by someone. It was the work of the White Bear Nation."

"Any letters?" she asked anxiously.

"Yes, here." Bingsan took out a piece of cloth from his arms and handed it over with both hands.

Su Chengnan took it, quickly scanned the contents above, and his expression instantly turned as dark as ink.

It said "Return the Second Prince within one day!"

"Miss, what should I do?"

"How is the second prince doing now?" Su Chengnan asked.

"Imprisoned in a dungeon, well fed and well fed! No obvious skin injuries!"

As soon as Su Chengnan heard what Bingsan said, he understood, and was afraid that some tricks were used. However, nothing useful seems to have been obtained these days.

"What should we do? Should we give this person to them?" Bingsan was anxious.

"We can't give it to him! Once he is handed over, we will have no amulets left. Immediately notify the entire city to impose martial law and have General Zhong take action immediately."

"yes!"

Su Chengnan stood up and led his men to the city wall.

Along the way, the people in the city were busy working in an orderly manner. The people in the carpentry workshop were in the lead and had made many large machines in the past few days! The reinforcement work of the city wall is also in progress. It would be better if there was more time.

The threat from the White Bear Country is like a sword hanging over one's head, making one feel very uneasy!

"Miss Su! I have already led the troops to impose martial law." Zhong Yinghan walked over fully armed.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, General."

"It's all as I should." Zhong Yinghan turned around with a serious expression and pointed in the direction of the city gate. "I have sent scouts to the front line to inquire. We will soon know how many troops they have."

"Okay," Su Chengnan nodded, climbed up the city wall and looked into the distance, feeling very worried as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart.

The heavy snow had just stopped and the weather had not yet warmed up. It was the melting period and it was freezing cold. She looked at the ice surface in the distance and thought, is there any solution she could think of?

"Ms. Su, Mr. Sun is here." Bingsan came quickly over from the side of the city wall.

"Where?"

"downstairs."

"Let's go, let's go there quickly."

"yes."

Just as Su Chengnan was about to go downstairs, a sharp sound of breaking wind came from behind him.

call out--

Su Chengnan subconsciously turned around and saw a sharp arrow shooting towards her.

"careful!"

"Miss!"

Zhong Yinghan and Bing San exclaimed almost at the same time, and they reacted quickly, rushing over. Bingsan knocked Su Chengnan to the ground, and Zhong Yinghan drew his sword to block the sharp arrow. The arrow was forced to change direction and nailed to the ground.

"Someone come!"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"The whole city is on alert! Prepare your weapons, quickly get your weapons ready!"

Su Chengnan's palm was scratched by the cold ground. She gasped in pain and stood up with a frown. She patted the dust off her body and looked at Zhong Yinghan and Bing San with gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you very much."
