"Alas." Although there was a little jealousy, Ren Hongchang did not show any dissatisfaction, after all, she and Zhao Yu were like sisters, and she was very distressed when Zhao Yu was injured.
"Quickly take your elder sister back to the room."
"Mm."
"Husband, I still have many things to do, I..."
"That’s an order!" You glared angrily, and Zhao Yu no longer resisted, retreating with the support of Ren Hongchang and a few maids.
After the won left, you took a deep breath, your face gradually turned gloomy, and after looking around, you finally spoke: "Who can tell exactly what happened?"
To be honest, you felt you were already being very tolerant. If it weren’t for considering the safety of the two thousand people of the Longn Escort Agency, you would definitely have lost your temper imdiately and wouldn’t be sitting here.
Yu Jin braced himself and stood up. He was a bit worried that you would lose control, but so far it seed your emotions were relatively restrained, though he wasn’t sure if you would imdiately take troops to retaliate after hearing his report.
"Lord, Lady Ren was ambushed by a group of black-clad attackers on her way back, and the losses among our brothers were significant. Including Lady Ren, around one hundred people were injured, and seventy died. The most severely injured is... is Lady Ren’s own brother, Zilong. He is currently unconscious and undergoing treatnt, and I’m afraid the situation is not very optimistic."
You didn’t speak, instead slowly closed your eyes.
The entire hall beca unusually silent, everyone dared not speak, they only felt the overwhelming pressure growing heavier, making it difficult for them to breathe.
"Do we know who they are?" After a while, you finally asked.
Yu Jin paused and said, "According to Little Liu’s investigation, it should have been done by Liu Bei."
"Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, Liu Bei, Liu Da’er."
You slowly recited Liu Bei’s na and nickna, at the sa ti, your right hand also began tapping the chair, making a "tap, tap, tap" sound.
"Calm yourself, Lord. Liu Bei’s influence in Xuzhou City is increasingly growing, we are probably no match for him." Yu Jin hurriedly advised, although he was also extrely angry, he knew he absolutely could not act impulsively at this ti.
"Last ti it was these black-clad attackers, this ti it’s them too, who can tell what these people actually are?"
You looked up at the ceiling, still holding your forehead.
"Lord, these people have never appeared openly, they are likely death soldiers secretly trained by Liu Bei." Yue Jin said.
"Trained? With Liu Da’er’s diocre skills, can he really train such a sharp team? Don’t even ntion Wei Yan and the others, with Zhao Yu and Zhao Yun, the two sisters alone, even if they were beset by thousands, they could escape safely!" Your fingers still tapped the chair, the crisp sound seed to strike everyone’s heart, "Among the sworn brothers of Liu Da’er, Liu Da’er and Zhang Fei are both ordinary people with no significant family background, except... Guan Yu."
Speaking of Guan Yu, Yu Jin seed to rember sothing and said to you, "I once sent people to investigate Liu Bei’s three brothers, just like you said, there is indeed an issue with Guan Yu."
"Let’s hear it."
Yu Jin organized his thoughts and continued, "Guan Yu appears to be from Jie Liang in Hedong, but this is not true. According to various sources from our escorts outside, I learned, Guan Yu didn’t actually grow up in Jie Liang, but in Xiaxiang County."
"Xiaxiang?" Hearing this, you couldn’t help but furrow your brows tightly. ntioning Xiaxiang, naturally leads to ntioning a person, a hero in China’s history who was not judged by success or failure, Xiang Yu, King of Western Chu!
"Lord, according to my inference, this Guan Yu is very likely to be a descendant of the King of Western Chu."
Actually, you did not worry about those enemies in the open, because their every move was within your sight. Any slight movent could be detected, and the quickest response could be made in the shortest ti. But the enemies lurking in the shadows were different, just like Lü Fengxian, no one expected she turned out to be a descendant of Lü Zhi, and the Lü Family Clan, hidden for hundreds of years, would choose this mont to challenge, intending to overthrow the Great Han Dynasty and unify the Nine Provinces.
After Yu Jin’s speech, Guan Yu’s identity was clear as day, no wonder this guy possessed such great power and could command an assassination team capable of killing invisibly and with great combat strength.
The Xiang Family probably also intended to rise in chaos, but their strength was ultimately inferior to that of the Lü Family by a few degrees, so they found Liu Bei to act as their representative, while they secretly aided Liu Bei. But one thing doesn’t make sense to you, when Guan Yu and Liu Bei swore brotherhood, Liu Bei was just a lowly seller of straw mats and sandals, despite his ambition for the world, the Xiang Family would hardly focus their efforts on him.
Could it be...
Thinking of this, you couldn’t help but clap your forehead heavily and imdiately cursed, "Damn, ti traveling has beco a trend in this era!"
Instead of thinking too much, it is better to take practical action!
This has always been your guiding principle in dealing with matters.
"Wen Ze, has anything major happened in Xuzhou City in recent days?"
"Yes." Yu Jin nodded, "Three days from now, Liu Bei is going to marry the Mi Family’s daughter, Mi Xiang."
Hearing this, you furrowed your brow again, did not speak, but pondered carefully. The scene remained extrely quiet, everyone was waiting, believing you would definitely give the orders.
Sure enough, the mont your lips curled slightly, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, imdiately followed by a tense and excited emotion, they knew they had to start acting!
"Wen Ze."
"Yes." Yu Jin responded.
"Tonight, visit the residences of the brothers Cao Bao and Cao Hong. I’ll give you a letter later, just deliver it to them, and they’ll know how to respond."
"Understood!" Yu Jin nodded.
"Wen Qian."
"At your service!" Yue Jin stepped forward and knelt before you.
"I’ll give you a thousand n, you can choose whoever you want, once chosen, stay on standby at the escort agency!"
"Understood!"
Yue Jin looked very happy; this thousand n could be said to be the main force of the Longn Escort Agency, you entrusting these n to him shows your absolute trust in him, and also signifies his importance in this group. Moreover, he knew, the position taken up by his unit would undoubtedly be crucial.
"Little Liu."
"Here!"
"For these three days, stay put and go nowhere."
"Huh?" Little Liu was stunned instantly, "Bu-but, I..."
"Do you have any objections?"
You glared angrily, Little Liu imdiately lost his temper, only able to lower his head and sigh, "No, none."
Slowly rising, you swept your gaze over the people ahead, saying: "For this action, I need each of you to be on high alert, no one shall slack off!"
"Understood!"
"Alright, go and prepare, keep your subordinates restrained these days, and have them stay quietly in place."
