When Qiao Leng walked out of the hall, his heart was extremely heavy.
The clan leader did not immediately take revenge tonight, proving that he was not blinded by anger.
But from the three orders issued by the clan leader, Qiao Leng felt an ironclad determination for revenge that could not be disobeyed!
"The decision to evacuate from Yangku Town tonight means that Wen Lao's death has made the clan leader smell the danger and realize how terrifying Su Yi is."
"The son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall. This Yangku Town is not the territory of the Yu family. If we take revenge tonight, there will inevitably be casualties. Under such circumstances, the clan leader can only tolerate it for the time being."
"And his second and third orders are undoubtedly to plan revenge!"
"We will meet with the Governor Xiang Tianqiu in half an hour. It is very likely that we will use the Governor's power to deal with Su Yi!"
"After all, Su Yi belongs to the sixth prince, and the governor belongs to the second prince. This can be exploited by the clan leader."
"It is easy to understand that the patriarch wants to meet the sixth prince at Moyun Tower tomorrow noon. He may want to use some conditions in exchange to force the sixth prince to abandon Su Yi..."
Qiao Leng felt cold in her heart when she thought of this.
Is this the palace and strategy of a big shot?
After a while, Qiao Leng shook his head, not daring to think any more, and took action in a hurry.
It is true that he is a martial arts master, but when it comes to important matters such as the Yu family, the prince, and the governor, he is only an ordinary person after all, and it is difficult to change anything.
…
Half an hour later.
A team belonging to the Yu family hurriedly left Yangku Town and headed towards Gunzhou City at full speed under the dark night.
Half an hour later.
Gunzhou City, Governor's Mansion.
Xiang Tianqiu, who had already received the news, was sitting in a palace, drinking tea and waiting.
His body is slightly bloated, his beard is gray, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle, looking full of power.
As the governor of a state, he is comparable to a feudal official. His power can intimidate any party.
And Xiang Tianqiu himself is an older master of the third level of martial arts!
Not long after, Yu Baiting arrived wearing a long robe with wide sleeves and a flowing willow beard.
Xiang Tianqiu stood up and greeted him with a smile, "I heard that Brother Yu was not relaxing in Yangku Town, so why did he return in a hurry late at night? Could it be that something big happened?"
Yu Baiting smiled slightly and said: "A little thing did happen, but I'm not here to talk about that."
"Sit down first."
Xiang Tianqiu said, and was about to order his servants to serve tea when Yu Baiting stopped him and said: "Xiang Sir, Yu will leave as soon as he has finished talking, so there is no need to bother."
Xiang Tianqiu was startled and said with a smile: "Then Xiang is all ears."
Yu Baiting thought for a while and said directly: "I will meet the Sixth Prince at Moyun Tower at noon tomorrow."
Xiang Tianqiu's pupils suddenly narrowed, and the atmosphere in the hall became slightly dull.
After a while, he smiled and said: "Brother Yu came here in a hurry late at night. He probably didn't want to express his stance to me and chose to join the Sixth Prince's camp, right?"
"of course not."
Yu Baiting looked calm and said, "I just want to use Sir Xiang's influence to negotiate a condition with the Sixth Prince."
"What's the meaning?"
Xiang Tianqiu frowned.
Yu Baiting said calmly: "A little thing next to the Sixth Prince has offended my daughter and made me feel very uncomfortable. I plan to let the Sixth Prince personally get rid of this little thing."
Xiang Tianqiu said in surprise: "Could the Sixth Prince be planning to take your daughter's life to force you, the head of the Yu family, to join his camp? If that's true, it would be too stupid!"
Yu Baiting shook his head and said: "I don't know what the Sixth Prince is thinking, but since such a thing has happened, it must be solved."
Xiang Tianqiu was silent for a moment, with a meaningful look in his eyes, and said: "Brother Yu, if you express your support for the second prince, I guarantee to Tianqiu that the sixth prince and his subordinates will not dare to do anything nonsense again without you taking any action!"
Yu Baiting avoided answering and said: "Master Xiang is too impatient. You have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. I believe you don't want me, the Yu family, to side with the Sixth Prince, right?"
Xiang Tianqiu laughed loudly and said: "Brother Yu, don't worry, if the sixth prince doesn't agree to deal with that little thing tomorrow, Xiang will not agree!"
Yu Baiting immediately stood up and said, "With these words, Mr. Xiang, Yu felt relieved and said goodbye."
After that, he left in a hurry.
Watching him leave, Xiang Tianqiu said thoughtfully, "It seems that the subordinate next to the Sixth Prince has completely made Yu Baiting really angry. Otherwise, there is no way he would have come to meet me before the tea party started...
…”
Immediately, Xiang Tianqiu laughed, "That's fine. You, Yu Baiting, have always wanted to remain neutral and not help each other. But after this matter, can you still not make a clear statement?"
"Father."
Suddenly, a young man in a silver robe walked in, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a majestic appearance, and a dignified appearance.
Xiang Ming.
The son of Xiang Tianqiu, the governor of Gunzhou.
A close disciple of "Wang Jianchong", the deputy master of Tianyuan Academy, and a prominent figure among the younger generation in Gunzhou City.
Seeing Xiang Ming come in, Xiang Tianqiu seemed to see himself when he was young, his eyes softened, and he said, "It's so late at night, why haven't you fallen asleep yet?"
Xiang Ming whispered: "Father, as I told you last time, I want to marry my junior sister Wen Lingzhao as my wife."
Xiang Tianqiu frowned slightly and sighed softly: "Last time, I asked someone to send a message to Zhu Guqing. As long as Wen Lingzhao is willing, I will personally come forward to help her dissolve her marriage. But you also know that Wen Lingzhao
Zhao refused."
He had seen Wen Lingzhao from a distance. She was indeed a woman of extraordinary beauty and extraordinary beauty. What was rare was that she also had outstanding talent.
There's just some issue with her identity, she's already someone else's wife.
Although she was only a wife in name only, it was a matter of honor, which made Xiang Tianqiu feel quite conflicted.
Xiang Ming took a deep breath and said seriously: "Father, I want to invite Junior Sister Lingzhao's parents to Gunzhou City as guests, and tell them clearly about this matter in person. It is best to resolve the marriage issue with Junior Sister Lingzhao.
"
Xiang Tianqiu snorted: "It's just a woman. Is she worthy of your obsession?"
Xiang Ming suddenly knelt down on the ground and said with a firm expression: "Father, please do it!"
Xiang Tianqiu's expression was uncertain, and he said after a while: "I can agree to this, but you must also agree to two conditions."
Xiang Ming said happily: "Please let me know from father."
"First, even if you have the chance to marry Wen Lingzhao, she can only serve as your concubine in this life."
Xiang Tianqiu said in a deep voice, "Second, it won't take long for me to step down as governor of Gunzhou and go to Yujing City to assist the second prince. At that time, you will go to Yujing City with me and stay with the second prince to work.
.”
After hearing this, Xiang Ming was silent for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Father, I promise!"
Xiang Tianqiu nodded, waved his hand and said, "Go to sleep."
…
Ruixiang Inn.
Until dawn, nothing unexpected happened.
This made Cha Jin, who had not slept well all night, sigh in relief but also feel a little puzzled.
The Yu family is one of the five top forces in Gunzhou. After suffering such a big loss, they just tolerate it like this?
"Pack up and we'll set off for Gunzhou City immediately."
Su Yi had already gotten up, stretched her waist, and opened the window. A breeze accompanied by the morning light fell on her body, making her feel relaxed and happy.
Cha Jin quickly got up from the bed, rolled up his sleeves, prepared toiletries for Su Yi, then went out and ordered the inn to prepare meals.
It must be said that she has gradually become accustomed to the role of "maid".
I don't know if it was because of Su Yi's training, or because her mood had quietly changed.
After eating and walking out of the inn, Su Yi unexpectedly saw a carriage waiting there.
Chen Jinlong suddenly appeared from not far away, and said with a worried face: "Brother Su, I have been waiting here for a long time."
Su Yi pointed at the carriage and said, "Did you prepare it?"
Chen Jinlong said quickly: "Exactly, but before leaving for Gunzhou City, I have something to apologize to you for."
Su Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "Apologise?"
Chen Jinlong said bitterly: "Last night, I was coerced by a martial arts master to leak some things related to Brother Su. After thinking about it, I felt really uneasy, so I didn't dare to hide it. I waited here early this morning, just to ask
Brother Su can forgive and considerate."
Su Yi was startled for a moment and said, "No wonder Qiao Leng and that old guy looked like they knew my details when they saw me."
Chen Jinlong suddenly broke into a cold sweat and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Su, you also know that my cultivation is shallow. After being coerced at that time, I didn't dare to..."
"Okay, there's no need to mention this matter again."
Su Yi waved.
Chen Jinlong was immediately relieved and said with a smile: "Brother Su, please hurry up. If you take a carriage, you can reach Gunzhou City in less than two hours."
Immediately, they set off together in a carriage and left Yangku Town.
"Brother Su, after arriving at Gunzhou City, do you have a place to stay?"
On the way, Chen Jinlong asked cautiously.
He noticed that Su Yi didn't seem to reject him or act aggressively, so he dared to ask questions.
Su Yi shook his head and asked: "Do you know which inn in the city is the most comfortable to stay in?"
Chen Jinlong said: "No matter how good an inn is, it will inevitably be crowded with people. If Brother Su doesn't mind, you can live in a mansion purchased by my family."
"your home?"
Su Yi raised his eyebrows.
Chen Jinlong explained: "My father purchased some mansions in Gunzhou City in the early years and kept them idle. Among them, there is a courtyard called 'Soseki Residence' that is the quietest. If Brother Su doesn't dislike it, he will wait until he arrives in Gunzhou City."
, you can live in it.”
Su Yi thought for a while, then took out a stack of banknotes and handed them over, "Well, you take me to that mansion, I'll pay your rent, and you take the banknotes first."
Chen Jinlong quickly declined and said: "Brother Su, are you a little out of touch? We have both practiced at Qinghe Jianfu before, and we are considered the same sect. How can I be embarrassed to take your money?"
"Take it."
Su Yi frowned slightly.
Chen Jinlong trembled all over and quickly took the bank note, but he sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, Su Yi didn't even give him a chance to curry favor with him!
Just talking like this, two hours later, the outline of a majestic and huge city could be seen in the distance.
Gunzhou City has arrived.

ps: Thanks to my brother "awatera" for the leader reward! It's been a long time since I last saw you. Of course, I owe you a five-minute update.
Let’s talk about the plot again. Gunzhou City is the core plot of this third volume. It needs to be foreshadowed first. After the foreshadowing is completed, a wave of interlocking climaxes will be staged~
Well...it's a bit stressful, but Jinyu is confident that he can still write well, so stay tuned.
