"Young Master, we are about ten miles ahead to Liangde City," Liu Da said.
Although Feng Ang was called the King of Lingnan, in fact, before he took refuge in the Tang Dynasty, he only occupied most of the territory in Lingnan, but did not completely occupy Lingnan.
After returning to the Tang Dynasty, Li Yuan established eight states of Gao, Luo, Chun, Bai, Ya, Dan, Lin and Zhen in Feng An's jurisdiction.
Feng Ang only has the identity of the general manager of Gaozhou, and nominally he only manages Gaozhou.
However, in order to calm his mind, Li Yuan appointed his three sons as governors. In fact, Feng An could manage four states.
However, his Duke Geng's residence was in Liangde City, Gaozhou, so Lin Xuan came to see Feng Ang and went directly to Liangde City.
Lin Xuan nodded and said: "Speed up and find an inn to stay in after entering the city."
After he entered the city, he planned to send someone to deliver the greeting card, and then he would take a bath and go to see Feng Ang.
Not long after, Liangde City appeared in front of Lin Xuan and others.
There were many people entering the city at the city gate, and Lin Xuan and his party were waiting beside them.
When the city gate was empty, Lin Xuan and others were just about to enter the city when a group of people came out of the city.
The leader was a man in rich attire, in his twenties, followed by dozens of guards. These guards all carried bows and arrows and seemed to be preparing to go hunting.
Lin Xuan reined in his horse and prepared to wait for these people to leave before entering the city.
When the man in fine clothes passed by Lin Xuan and others, he glanced at Lin Xuan curiously.
When he saw Guo Caiyue next to Lin Xuan, his eyes widened.
The weather in Lingnan is relatively hot. Although the Chinese New Year has just begun, the temperature is now around 17 or 18 degrees Celsius, so Lin Xuan and the others have already changed out of their cotton-padded clothes.
Guo Caiyue was dressed in a smart outfit and was riding a horse, looking dashing and heroic. She attracted a lot of attention along the way. However, there were more than 300 people in Lin Xuan's group and they were all armed, so no one dared to look at them.
"Stop!" shouted the man in fine clothes.
The guards led by the men in colorful uniforms were very well-trained. When they heard the order, they immediately reined in their horses and stopped without any panic.
The man in rich clothes turned his horse's head, came to Lin Xuan, pointed at Guo Caiyue and said: "How much does this woman cost? I bought it."
Lin Xuan said with a cold face: "Get out!"
The man in fine clothes was stunned for a moment, then laughed, as if he had heard some big joke, and said: "I am in a good mood today, and I don't want to be rude in front of the little beauty, so I am willing to pay. How dare you tell me to get out?
Now I am unhappy. I don’t have money, but I also want the beauty.”
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and noticed something was wrong.
The man in rich clothes in front of him looked very arrogant and looked like a playboy.
But when he came to Lingnan this time, he brought 300 soldiers with him, but the men in colorful uniforms had only a few dozen guards. How could he have the confidence to directly rob people?
No matter how high his status is, there is such a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. How can he dare to be so arrogant as long as he is not a fool?
The man in rich clothes shouted: "Come here, please bring this little beauty back to me. Remember to be gentle."
"yes!"
The guards seemed to have been used to this kind of scene for a long time. They didn't care that there were more than 300 people on Lin Xuan's side. A few guards dismounted and walked over carelessly.
Wow~
Liu Da and others took out the long knives from their waists. Several guards stopped and looked at the man in rich clothes.
"Hey! You want to take advantage of the crowd?" The man in rich clothes sneered and said to the guards at the city gate: "Are you blind? Didn't you see that someone wanted to assassinate me? Why don't you ask someone to protect me?"
"
The soldiers guarding the city gate came to their senses and shouted quickly: "Come here, come quickly, protect the fifth young master."
Lin Xuan frowned. This was Feng An's base camp. He could directly order the soldiers guarding the city, also known as the Fifth Young Master. It was obvious that the other party was Feng An's son.
Feng An had more than a dozen sons, and the Feng family was the local emperor in Lingnan. It was normal for Feng An's sons to be a little arrogant and playboy.
But Lin Xuan felt that something was unusual. He had just arrived in Lingnan, and he met Feng An's son before entering the city, and he even had a conflict with him. How could it be such a coincidence?
There was a sound of footsteps, and a group of soldiers ran out of the city, holding weapons and pointing at Lin Xuan and others.
One of the generals came to the man in fine clothes and said with a flattering smile: "I have seen the Fifth Young Master in my humble position, and the Fifth Young Master was frightened."
Although Feng An had many sons, not everyone was favored, but he was just a city gate guard. Regardless of whether he was favored or not, he was the one he needed to fawn over.
"Boy Lin, do you want to take action? There are only more than a hundred soldiers here. They are just county soldiers. They have no fighting power at all." Zhang Zhongjian said.
He was originally a lawless person, and since he had already established himself overseas, he naturally acted unscrupulously.
"We can't take action, at least we can't take action first," Lin Xuan said.
They are being reasonable. If they take action first, the other party will suffer a loss, and in the end it will be their fault.
Feng Zhidao looked at Lin Xuan very proudly and said: "How is it? Do you still want to fight with me now? I will give you another chance. As long as you give this little beauty to me, I will not pursue it anymore."
"I am Hou Linxuan of Jingyang County. I am here to pay homage to Duke Geng. Is this the way the Feng family treats guests?" Lin Xuan said lightly.
"Jingyang County Marquis?" Feng Zhidai said disdainfully: "Let's not talk about whether it is true or not. Even if you are the County Marquis, how can you see my father if you want to?"
Lin Xuan felt more and more that something was wrong. Feng Andu had sent his favorite son to Chang'an as a hostage. Even if his son was used to being arrogant and domineering, there was no reason to dare to look down on a marquis.
Moreover, this Marquis is from Chang'an.
Either Feng Zhiling is a real playboy, or he is just acting.
When Feng Zhidai saw that Lin Xuan was silent, he said, "Since you don't agree, don't blame me for robbing him. Come on, do it!"
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly and was about to give the order to meet the enemy.
If the other party makes the first move, he has no worries.
"stop!"
Just when the two parties were at war with each other and were about to take action, there was a loud shout.
As soon as the voice fell, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from the city.
"Get out of the way!" The city gate guard's expression changed and he said quickly.
The soldiers blocking the city gate quickly dispersed.
Not long after, a group of people filed out of the city.
The person leading the way was an old man with black and white hair.
"Xu~"
The old man reined in his horse and stopped, looked at Feng Zhidui and shouted: "You traitor, why don't you kneel down!"
"Dad, I wonder what mistake you made?" Feng Zhidao said with a puzzled look on his face.
"You traitor, how dare you offend the Marquis of Jingyang County and refuse to admit your mistake?" Feng An shouted: "Come here, take this traitor to your house and wait for me to deal with it when I get back!"
"yes!"
The guards behind Feng An stepped forward and caught Feng Zhiding.
"Dad! I know I was wrong, please forgive me."
Feng Zhidai originally thought that even if Feng An came, he would just pretend to scold him, but now that Feng An was about to show his seriousness, he immediately panicked.
"Take away!" Feng An ignored Feng Zhidai's plea for mercy and said with a cold face.
The guards took the order and escorted Feng Zhidao to the city.
"Dad~, I know I was wrong~"
Feng Ang said with a smile on his face: "This should be the famous Marquis of Jingyang County. He is a treacherous son. I hope the Marquis of Jingyang will not blame him!"
Lin Xuan turned over and dismounted, cupped his hands and said: "Don't dare to take it, I am Lin Xuan!"
Feng Ang laughed, dismounted and said, "I learned that the Marquis of Jingyang County was coming, so I sent people to watch at the city gate. After receiving the notice, I came over. The house has prepared wine and food, please invite the Marquis of Jingyang County!"
