Chapter 466: Problems with the Corpse
Nan Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was worried that Jie Shi and the others would go back on their word, so she hurriedly followed him out. As soon as they walked out of the Jie Mansion gate, they saw a carriage waiting outside.
Zhu Feng took them into the carriage.
It was already very late at this time and there were almost no people on the street. After the carriage left the mansion and drove for a while, Zhu Feng lifted the curtain.
Ye Zheng, who was riding outside, came over immediately and said, "Your Majesty, what are your instructions?"
Zhu Feng said, "Go back immediately and inform our people to prepare themselves. When I return, we will immediately set off for Beiping."
"immediately?"
Ye Zheng was stunned for a moment, but immediately said, "Yes."
Having said that, he was about to raise his whip.
Zhu Feng said again: "Wait a moment."
Ye Zheng stopped and looked at him. Zhu Feng turned around and ordered, "Ran Xiaoyu, go with him."
“…”
"Although the stone cutter may not follow us out, we should still be cautious."
When Ran Xiaoyu heard this, she immediately said, "I obey your order."
After saying that, he jumped off the carriage. However, when Ye Zheng heard what Zhu Feng said, he felt a little dissatisfied: "Should I ask her to protect me?"
Zhu Feng looked at him sullenly: "Are you dissatisfied with my arrangement?"
“…”
Of course not.
Ye Zheng could only dejectedly pull Ran Xiaoyu onto his horse's back, letting her sit behind him, and warned her, "Hold on tight, I won't take care of you if you fall."
Ran Xiaoyu grabbed his clothes expressionlessly.
Ye Zheng raised his whip and galloped away immediately.
Zhu Feng and his companions' carriage naturally continued to move forward.
Hearing the hurried sound of horse hooves gradually fading away, Nan Yan's mood, which had not yet completely calmed down, became even more nervous. The carriage continued to move forward, shaking, which made her even more upset.
Zhu Feng turned around, looked at her frowning face, and said, "Were you scared just now?"
Nan Yan hurriedly shook her head.
To be honest, although she was nervous, she was not afraid at all.
Because Zhu Feng is here.
At the beginning, she was kidnapped by Tong Jie and taken to the Yue State camp. When the situation was so dangerous and almost hopeless, Zhu Feng was able to rush to the Yue State camp single-handedly and rescue her.
From then on, she felt at ease whenever she saw him.
The only one afraid is him.
Of course, this cannot be said.
She coughed lightly, then asked, "Is there something wrong with the body?"
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"If they're so anxious to get the body back, there must be something wrong."
Nan Yan frowned: "What's the problem?"
“…”
"Didn't we find the token on him?"
Zhu Feng said, "Since Jie Shi has already sent us an invitation, and we've already arrived at his residence, the token doesn't mean much."
“…”
"That's definitely not what he's worried about."
“…”
"It's about some issues on the body that we haven't discovered yet."
Nan Yan thought for a moment and said, "Then, that corpse—"
Zhu Feng said, "I have already sent someone to transport it to Beiping."
"ah?"
The words he had just said in front of Jie Shi were indeed meant to shock Jie Shi and his men, so that they would not dare to act rashly, but he did not expect that they were actually true.
Nan Yan said, "Then we must hurry to Beiping and check on the body."
"Of course," Zhu Feng said, a gleam in his deep eyes: "Also, we must get ahead of them."
"W-what?"
