Chapter 177 Even marrying the Crown Prince is a source of trouble
Tang Bugui, mounted on his horse, heard Ling's words and his eyes gleamed.
"General, you'd better not go. I've already sent someone over... If you go..."
Guard Ling wore a somewhat helpless expression.
Tang Bugui raised an eyebrow and glanced at Guard Ling: "Alright, none of this is as satisfying as taking revenge yourself!"
After Tang Bugui finished speaking, he rushed out of the General's Mansion.
Guard Ling hurriedly chased after him. Oh well, he thought, I'll handle these things better myself!
At worst, they can find their own way to make money; they can't let their brothers go hungry!
He'll think of another way...
The two rode their horses directly to the hunting grounds.
The Lan family members kept watch outside the General's Mansion, because they really didn't want their family members to be beaten up for no reason again.
"Quickly, go back and tell the master and madam that that madman Tang has run away again!" A man drinking tea turned to his servant and said.
He was an unfavored member of the Lan family, and for the past few days, the Lan family had left him here to keep an eye on Tang Bugui.
The servant hurriedly left, and only then did Lan Wei stand up and depart.
Meanwhile, Tang Bugui had already ridden out. It would take at least an hour to get from the capital to the hunting grounds, but with his excellent horse, he could arrive in less than half an hour.
"Hurry up, Zhuifeng! Let's go avenge your mistress!" Tang Bugui's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
Chasing Wind shook its head, and its four hooves clattered on the ground as if it were going crazy.
Dust flew everywhere, and Guard Ling was left at the back.
His Marco was not as good as his own general's: "General, wait for me..."
The general was as stubborn as an ox, incredibly strong, and fierce...
"General, please stay calm! You must not kill him. As long as you don't kill him, you can do whatever you want..." Guard Ling shouted as he ate dust.
Finally, they watched helplessly as their general disappeared from sight...
Seeing that the general was gone, he sighed and took out a signal flare from his pocket...
Tang Bugui glanced at it and curled his lip. He already knew about this trick, but he just didn't say anything.
Those waiting by the roadside who saw the signal flare fired their own flares, until the last person did.
The man hurriedly ran into the hunting grounds, and from a distance, they saw several burly men.
"General Cheng..." the servant hurriedly called out to a man.
"What do you want?" General Cheng glanced at the servant with some impatience, but still said to the group of people, "Our good-for-nothing servant is looking for us, let's go see him. Lord Lan, you can't leave, wait a moment, we'll treat you to a drink!"
“General Cheng, go and help... Lan Feng will naturally wait for you, General!” A gentle-looking man with a beautiful beard smiled slightly. He was quite handsome.
General Cheng chuckled twice, then turned and left!
The two walked through the crowd and hid in a corner. General Cheng, who had just been all solemn, suddenly changed his expression.
"What's wrong? Why are you running so fast? Is the General here?" General Cheng paused, a hint of fierceness in his eyes.
The old iron tree of the Great General finally blossomed, only to be ruined by the Lan family. This incident angered many in their army.
To put it bluntly, what happened today was a setup for Lan Feng...
"That's right, it seems that Guard Ling has failed. Keep an eye on things and keep him calm so that the General can come and avenge him!" This servant was also a soldier, so he spoke with a mix of excitement and nervousness.
"Alright, I understand. Go and take a look. When the General arrives, show him around our layout for today before coming back. I'll keep a close eye on Lan Feng!" General Cheng said to the servant.
The two soon parted ways. General Cheng returned to the hunting grounds, looked at the people around him, gave them a wink, and everyone immediately understood what was going on.
“Lord Lan, let’s go hunting for a while longer. I’ve lost several dozen taels of silver today. Let me at least get some of my money back,” a man said as he walked over.
Lan Feng won a lot of money today, so he felt embarrassed to leave.
These soldiers are good at fighting, but not so good at hunting!
"Okay!" Lan Feng agreed and followed them.
Tang Bugui's horse soon appeared outside the hunting grounds.
At this moment, the Lan family also started making a fuss.
When Mrs. Lan and the old man discovered that Lan Feng was not at home, they immediately became nervous.
"Master, Feng-ge'er isn't home. What if he's been targeted by that madman..." Old Madam Lan's eyes flickered slightly as she spoke.
Lord Lan frowned slightly. He naturally loved the two children born to his deceased wife.
However, when Lan Shuyu got into that mess, he tried everything to cover it up for her, but his daughter insisted on giving birth to that bastard child...
He was disheartened, but even so, he still cared about them.
The eldest son, now a fourth-rank official, absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble.
Lord Lan frowned slightly: "My son is a fourth-rank Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. That scoundrel dared to lay a hand on my son. I will definitely go to His Majesty..."
"Forget it, I'll go to the Ministry of Revenue and bring him back!"
After Lord Lan finished speaking, he got up and walked outside.
After seeing her husband off, Madam Lan immediately sent someone to summon her four sons and one daughter.
Lan Xin'er and Xiao Su Bao are the same age. At this moment, she is tall and a head taller than Xiao Su Bao. She has an oval face and, although she is only five years old, she has the air of a little adult.
"Daughter greets Mother!" Lan Xin'er bowed obediently.
"Jiao'er, come stand beside your mother. Erlang, Sanlang, Silang, Wulang, you all sit down too!" Madam Lan glanced at her sons.
Compared to Lan Xin'er, her sons all seemed rather pathetic.
“Don’t go out these next few days unless you have to. That Tang Bugui is a madman. Don’t let him hurt you. His life is worthless, but it’s different from yours…” Madam Lan squinted her eyes.
"Mother, why are you afraid of him? If he dares to touch me, I will go to the Crown Prince and the Empress. His Majesty will definitely support me!"
Lan Xin'er said in a sweet and coquettish voice, with a hint of arrogance in her eyes.
Knowing her daughter's personality, Madam Lan hugged her and said gently, "I know the Empress and His Majesty like you, but you must not take their favor for granted, and..."
"Mother, His Highness the Crown Prince and I are now engaged..." Lan Xin'er said with a frown.
Madam Lan rubbed her temples. This daughter was far too spoiled; she was only somewhat obedient in front of the old lady…
"Little sister, your mother is doing this for your own good!" Lan Erlang couldn't help but say to Lan Xin'er.
"Second brother, you should take care of yourself! It's none of your business how I am!" After saying that, Lan Xin'er broke free from Madam Lan and turned to leave.
"Mother, look at what my little sister has become! She is so ignorant of her own limitations. Even if she marries the Crown Prince, she will only bring disaster!"
