The middle-aged soldier glanced at Ziyan subconsciously.
Ziyan blinked and winked frantically.
Go ahead and do it!
Speak up!
Quickly clear Cheng Gui Ge's name!
The middle-aged soldier took a deep breath, suppressing his panic, and quickly stepped forward, speaking to Zhou Cheng with utmost respect as he lied: "Young Master Zhou, Miss Cheng has been kidnapped by a group of masked men!"
"Are they from Cheng Gui Pavilion?" Black Horse rushed forward aggressively and questioned, "They are truly vicious! Not only did they kidnap Black Dragon, but they also wanted to kidnap Miss Cheng to threaten you, young master."
"Don't let me see them! If I see even one, I'll kill them!"
"I can't swallow this insult if I don't avenge this!"
Hearing the Zhou family's furious words, the middle-aged soldier's lips twitched.
Keeping such a huge secret hidden in your heart, unable to tell anyone, is incredibly agonizing.
The biggest boss of Cheng Gui Pavilion was nestled in Young Master Zhou's arms... Oh, and Young Master Zhou was soothingly patting his head to calm him down. I wonder how Miss Cheng felt after hearing what Black Horse said?
After a moment's thought, the middle-aged soldier quickly denied it: "No, no."
“Young Master Zhou, it was not the people from Cheng Gui Pavilion who kidnapped Miss Cheng.”
"Instead! It's Nanyue Academy."
"Nanyue Academy coveted the weapons, so they impersonated Cheng Guige and dismembered the maid A Cai, kidnapped Heilong, and finally abducted Miss Cheng. They wanted to incite the two sides to fight each other so that they could reap the benefits."
"It was Yang Shiliu who accidentally discovered the people in the academy. Several hundred of us followed them all the way, and it was only with our numbers that we were able to rescue Miss Cheng."
"Those men were menacing, forcing Miss Cheng to reveal the source of the weapon. When we kicked down the door and arrived at the scene, Miss Cheng was pale with fright and was almost tortured with the instruments..."
“¥#@¥%........”
In the next fifteen minutes.
The middle-aged soldier used his silver tongue to belittle the people of Nanyue Academy to the point of being worthless, describing them as cruel and vicious.
Then he expresses the pitiful feeling of sitting in the pavilion while a pot falls from the sky.
This account greatly surprised the Zhou family.
Upon hearing the words "Nanyue Academy," Zhou Shiying looked up in shock. She glanced at Zhou Cheng, who was also silent, and said, "Cheng'er, Nanyue Academy..."
"But is it the academy where Third Sister Qianyan studied? The pinnacle of Central Plains scholarship?"
Zhou Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly: "Exactly."
"It seems I'll have to send a letter of greeting to my third sister after I get back to the city."
Nanyue Academy.
He wrote it down.
After he finishes dealing with Emperor Yan, the next one will be him!
The thought of Emperor Yan, whose home had been raided, immediately brought to mind the imperial court's secret order to attack. He gestured to Black Rat and ordered, "Prepare yourselves and set off back to Jiangling City."
"As for the Marquis of Pingyang's group of soldiers... since they are willing to follow, let them follow."
That concludes the discussion.
Zhou Cheng's trip out of the city to rescue his elder sister ended with him taking in several hundred soldiers.
It only takes half a day to travel from the border inn to Jiangling City.
Commander Zhang, who had received the imperial edict from the capital, finally received the order to attack the city! What should have been a joyous order turned sour after a few words were added to the secret letter.
Inside the camp of the host official, the generals gathered together and spoke in shock.
"What? Zhou Cheng didn't go to the capital to abduct the bride?"
