"We hope that you, young master, will do us the honor of visiting."
Zhou Cheng responded casually, "Sure. What about Black Sheep?"
"Black Sheep said that on his way to Pingyang City, he heard the latest news that the Marquis of Pingyang had reorganized his troops and was on his way to the capital with the young lady."
"Based on the time, we should arrive in Wangcheng around the early morning of the day after tomorrow."
"Young master, we've traveled through wind and rain all the way here, and we've finally managed to intercept it before Marquis Pingyang."
"That damned Marquis of Pingyang, how dare he treat the young lady like this? Is he so sure that the Zhou family can't beat the imperial court, so he's trying to use the young lady to advance his own career? Has he not considered how he will face himself if the Zhou family wins?!"
I'm afraid they never thought of that.
After all, the Marquis of Pingyang only knew about weapons of mass destruction, but did not know how powerful they truly were.
How could the high-ranking officials and ministers of Yan Kingdom have imagined that a country would one day be able to create submachine guns and hand grenades?
And the most unimaginable thing—
Zhou Cheng possesses a modern goods market that is out of step with the times. As long as he has enough points, he can obtain those weapons without end!
“I also want to see how the Marquis of Pingyang will handle this!” A cold glint flashed in Zhou Cheng’s eyes as he ordered, “Rest here and wait for the Marquis of Pingyang to arrive with my elder sister.”
As he spoke, Zhou Cheng handed Cheng Xianyi another peanut and fed it into his mouth.
Indeed!
*Clap*
The peanut fell to the ground.
Zhou Cheng turned his head and saw that Cheng Xianyi was frowning and staring at the outside of the inn. He didn't know what she saw, but she seemed to be lost in thought for a moment.
"What's wrong?"
Cheng Xianyi withdrew her gaze and tilted her small face to look at Zhou Cheng: "Cheng, are we going to rest in Wangcheng tonight? Can I sleep in the same room as you? I'm afraid of the dark, I'll have nightmares."
Afraid of the dark?
Zi Yan twitched her lips: "........."
at this time!
Two heads slowly emerged from the alleyway where Cheng Xianyi had been staring.
Two veiled women were frowning as they looked towards the inn. The woman in blue stared at Cheng Xianyi's face for a while before asking, "Qingyan."
"Look over there, doesn't that person look somewhat like our Pavilion Master?"
Qingyan narrowed her cold, fierce eyes, crossed her arms, and looked like she was not to be trifled with: "It's not just similar, it's exactly the same."
"How many people in this Yan Kingdom can grow up to look like this?"
"Our sect leader has always been at odds with the court officials, and she even personally crippled the Fourth Prince before. How could she be with the Zhou family? Could she have been kidnapped?"
The woman in blue's expression changed slightly.
Looking closely at Cheng Xianyi's face, I was shocked to find that my master's expression was not quite right!
She always had a cold, aloof face that kept strangers at bay!
How did it become like this now...?
Gentle, calm, obedient, and even so close to that young master Zhou, with his hand inside his sleeve—has the master been kidnapped?
Could it be that his hands are tied with rope?
right!
Otherwise, why would they have to be fed?
"Ever since Young Master Zhou abducted Grand Tutor Cheng from us, our master and Chief Zi have suddenly disappeared without a trace... Our people have searched the entire capital, but there is no trace of them."
"I never expected it would fall into the hands of the Zhou family!"
"I understand! After Master Cheng was intercepted by Young Master Zhou, Master and Chief Zi were unwilling to give up and must have wanted to snatch Master Cheng away from Young Master Zhou, but ended up being tied up by Young Master Zhou instead?!"
