Chapter 46 Being mocked
Lu Chaofeng held the letter and returned to the study with a serious face.
The rest followed closely behind.
"Sir, such a big incident happened at the border, why is there no news from the court?"
"I'm afraid someone has concealed the news."
"Who could that be?" Ah Shun asked without hesitation.
Qingshan looked at him with disdain and blurted out, "Of course, it's those who don't want to fight and would rather cede land in exchange for a brief peace! The first one to bear the brunt is the King's uncle! Whenever the war is mentioned, he is the only one who either keeps silent or advocates marriage and ceding land. He is really spineless."
Lu Chaofeng picked up the pen and quickly wrote a three-page reply. Then he held it up, shook it in the air a few times, folded it in half, put it in an envelope and sealed it.
"You must go there and hand it over to my father personally."
"Qingshan, I will deliver it within three days."
He said and turned to leave.
Lu Chaofeng stopped him and said, "Wait a moment, take these with you, and also bring some nutritional supplements."
"yes."
Lu Chaofeng stood up and opened the drawer of the side cabinet, and took out a number of porcelain bottles, all of which had the words "Specially made in Penglai Valley" written on them.
"Sir, these are all the medicines we have right now. Please send them all to the prince. If you get sick, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you to bear it."
"It doesn't matter. I won't die anyway. Giving these things to father might be of great use. Go ahead."
"Prince, please keep one bottle."
"Send it!"
"Yes." Qingshan gritted his teeth and had to obey orders.
After he left, Ah Shun continued to ask, "Prince, these tribes gathered together to attack, which is obviously organized. There is a severe drought in the north this year, and I am afraid that the food and grass will not last long. Should we start to collect food and grass?"
"Well, the uncle of the emperor is holding on to the Ministry of War and won't let go. I'm afraid the court will continue to delay like before!!"
Lu Chaofeng punched the table, and the pens, ink, paper and inkstone on the table vibrated and made a slight moving sound.
"The Queen Mother's family is growing stronger and stronger, and they are about to dominate the world with one hand. If this continues, Dayong will be destroyed by the Xiao family sooner or later!"
"We can't wait for the court for the grain and grass issue. You can take the money and go to Jiangnan to collect as much grain as you can. We can talk about it after we get through this hurdle first."
"good."
“Medicine is also necessary!”
"I know."
Lu Chaofeng's emotions fluctuated greatly, and the poisonous gas that had just been suppressed by the hot spring began to run rampant in his body again.
He clenched his fist, put it to his mouth, coughed wildly a few times, and then spat out a mouthful of blood. Ah Shun was so scared that his face changed color.
"Prince! Don't worry, we will definitely get things done, and the prince will be able to escape smoothly."
"You are in great need of help."
Ah Shun stamped his feet and complained, "That damn Mi Feng, with his unique Qinggong, he should have found a chance to escape even if he was tied up. Why on earth is he not coming back?!"
At this time, Wu Ming walked in from outside and took over the conversation.
"I have already sent out an order in the valley. As long as Junior Master Mi Feng knows about it, he will definitely come back quickly."
"My Lord, Zhan Xiao just sent a visiting card over. He wants to see you, would you like to see him?"
"See."
"I want to see what Empress Dowager Xiao wants to do!"
…
The north side of Yinmeng Mountain.
A little boy in blue clothes was riding a donkey, heading south non-stop, and behind him was a middle-aged man with his hands tied by a rope.
"Where exactly are you taking me?"
"Take you to see the official!"
"My little ancestor Mifeng, please let me go. I will never dare to do it again."
"How dare you cheat under the name of Penglai Valley and even kidnap women and children! I'm showing mercy by not skinning you alive. If you keep yelling, I'll cut off your tongue and use it as wine!"
The boy in green looked no more than ten years old, but his eyes were mature, his words were sophisticated, and he exuded a sense of chivalry from head to toe.
"My lord, I really don't dare to do that anymore!"
"Huh, you don't want your tongue anymore? Then I'll cut it off."
He drew the dagger from his waist, made a beautiful knife move in his palm, then grabbed the donkey and was about to turn around.
The man behind him fell to his knees with a thud. He didn't dare to say anything and could only kowtow continuously.
"Don't worry! Once we get over the hill, we'll be there."
Mi Feng had already seen the signal sent by Wu Ming. If he had not found the trace of the thief on the road, he would definitely not have delayed for so long. Only after he caught the person did he follow the marks to find him.
However, he felt that even if he didn't look for the mark, he would be able to find Lu Chaofeng. The news of Lu Chaofeng arranging a ghost marriage spread like wildfire, and spread throughout the entire Yong Kingdom!
Even a gangster like him sensed something unusual and guessed that someone was behind the scenes fanning the flames. Otherwise, how could something that happened in the capital spread so far in just a few days?
“Hurry up!”
"Uh-huh..." The man was pulled by Mi Feng and almost fell to the ground. He could only nod hesitantly.
…
Inside the courtyard.
Zhan Xiao had just handed in the note when he arrived within less than an hour.
Lu Chaofeng went to the main hall to meet him.
"My Lord, you are really fast."
"I was thinking about my mother and wanted to share the joy of my marriage with her, so I walked faster."
"I came here today because I want to ask you something."
"Commander Zhan, please feel free to speak. If I know anything, I will tell you everything I know."
"Is Sun Liangyuan at your house?"
“No.”
"Prince, don't lie to me! Since I have come to see you, I must know something." Zhan Xiao glared at him, and his tone sounded extremely unfriendly, as if he didn't take Lu Chaofeng seriously at all.
Lu Chaofeng stood up by the edge of the table, "Ahem... did Commander Zhan misunderstand?"
"Prince! I might as well tell you that this Sun Liangyuan is the person the Queen Mother wants to see. You'd better invite him out as soon as possible."
"The Grandfather once said that Mr. Sun is simple by nature and does not like officialdom. No one is allowed to disturb him. He does whatever he likes. Why does the Queen Mother want to see Mr. Sun now?"
"Sir, there are some things you shouldn't ask. I think you'd better not ask too much, otherwise the Queen Mother will blame you..."
“Commander Zhan, you are too serious.
Mr. Sun is indeed not at my house today. To be honest, I also sent a visiting card to him when I first arrived in Los Angeles, but unfortunately I did not receive a reply and did not meet him in person. It is really a pity. ”
Zhan Xiao couldn't find anyone and was at his wit's end, so he decided to break off relations with this sickly guy!
"Lu Chaofeng! If you continue to be uncooperative, don't blame me for searching personally..."
Lu Chaofeng clenched his palms, but still did not show it on his face, always strictly maintaining the basic ethics of a sinister and sick man.
"Ahem... Commander Zhan! How could I lie to you?"
"Since this is what the Queen Mother wants, I will definitely cooperate."
"Don't worry, I'll send someone out to look for him, maybe we can find him. Come, sit down for a while."
Zhan Xiao snorted coldly, raised his head and sat down casually in the first seat to the lower right of Lu Chaofeng, picked up the teacup and started drinking by himself without being polite at all.
"Prince, why don't you live in Luocheng?"
"The city lord has a grudge against my father. Commander Zhan, don't you know?"
