Zhao had already made preparations.

A large mansion with five courtyards was prepared for her in advance.

Then several adjacent mansions were vacated to accommodate the personal guards who followed.

A group of people greeted the guests with smiles, and were busy delivering daily necessities and preparing a grand banquet.

The food at the banquet was simple, with only some grains and pickles, but the atmosphere was "harmonious" and both the guests and the hosts were having a great time.

After finally waiting until nightfall, they sent the person to the mansion to rest.

Wait until the person leaves.

The faces of all the Zhao clan members present instantly fell.

One of the uncles slammed the table and stood up, angrily saying, "How has the Zhao family of Hejian ever been so humble? The Zhongshan Kingdom is going too far!"

When the fort was surrounded, they had to offer sacrifices to the people in a polite manner.

Actually, before the army arrived, the Zhao clan members had already discussed it in the clan hall.

Guangping County is so close. If Zhongshan Kingdom can really eliminate Guangping, the Zhao family will definitely be the biggest beneficiary besides the survivors in Guangping.

As long as they can safely live in a corner, develop their stronghold, and strengthen themselves, the Zhao family will not fall and will eventually rise again.

So they were certain that Zhongshan State wanted the five counties south of Hejian County.

Then give it to me!

At worst, we can increase the defenses around Mo County during the winter to prevent monsters from entering the territory.

Who would have thought that when the man came, he showed an attitude of not leaving and even led his troops to surround the fort.

You can imagine how angry the Zhao family members were!

Zhao Yongqian, his cousins, and two uncles finally had the chance to speak.

One of the uncles had a dark look in his eyes and was the first to speak up. He said in a deep voice, "In my opinion, the army is from Zhongshan State, but the soldiers are not necessarily from Zhongshan State."
