Chapter 222: Come out and see me!
"The one who understands me is Ling Mo!"
Chen Xuan nodded slightly and did not deny Ling Mo's guess.
Ling Mo was shocked.
In fact, this idea just popped up in his mind suddenly.
I thought it was unlikely that Chen Xuan would do this, but I never expected that he would admit it without thinking.
They kidnapped the head of the Zhao family and then put the blame on the Tianshan Sect, saying that they had captured the person.
Is this the kind of thing a normal person could come up with?
All I can say is that Chen Xuan has a unique way of thinking and always thinks of things that normal people would never think of.
"Master Chen, Master Chen, something bad has happened!"
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard outside.
It was Chiang Bai-ri who rushed in.
"What are you so worried about?"
Ling Mo scolded.
Jiang Baili was his confidant, and he also intended to promote Jiang Baili to deputy commander-in-chief.
"People from the Zhao family have come to our Barbarian City!"
Jiang Baili said in panic.
Hearing this, Chen Xuan immediately looked at Ling Mo.
Didn’t they say that the Zhao family went directly to the Tianshan Sect to demand an explanation?
I came to the Barbarian City. What’s going on?
Ling Mo was also a little surprised.
Could it be that the information I received was wrong?
"Their ultimate goal should still be the Tianshan Sect. As for why they came to Mancheng, they were just passing by and came to check the situation."
Chen Xuan thought about it and said so.
After all, according to the information obtained from the Zhao family, Zhao Fusheng found out in Mancheng that the reason for Zhao Zhong's disappearance was that he was captured by the Tianshan Sect.
In the eyes of the Zhao family, Zhao Fusheng is already on his way to the Tianshan Sect, so they came to Mancheng to inquire about the details.
The letter sent to the Zhao family was a fake letter forged by Chen Xuan.
The Zhao family will reveal the truth immediately if they question them carefully!
"Chen Ye, what should we do next?"
Everyone immediately looked at Chen Xuan.
A behemoth like the Zhao family is not something they can resist now.
Chen Xuan's original intention was to let the Tianshan Sect and the Zhao Family fight each other, so that they could gain time to survive in the cracks, but man proposes, God disposes!
If the Zhao family members come here now, there will undoubtedly be changes in Chen Xuan's plan.
Just when everyone thought that Chen Xuan would be frowning, he suddenly slapped his thigh and burst into laughter.
"I was just trying to figure out how to get their way to the Tianshan Sect, but I didn't expect them to show up right here. This is great!"
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Ling Mo and said, "Ling Mo, from now on, I will play the role of a captain beside you, and you will continue to be the commander of your Barbarian City. If Zhao Ting comes to see the prefect Zhang Tao, you will tell them this..."
Chen Xuan hooked his finger at Ling Mo, motioning him to come over and listen to how he would arrange the plan for him.
Soon, a day passed.
at dusk.
A convoy of several hundred people marched into the barbarian city in a mighty procession.
Everyone in this team is an expert.
The worst groom is also at the seventh level of warrior!
With this level of ability, he is more than qualified to be a centurion in the military camp.
And now, he is just a servant driving the carriage!
This shows how powerful the Zhao family is!
When the convoy arrived at the city gate, it was allowed into the city without any obstruction.
The luxurious carriage that Zhao Ting was riding in had a smooth journey and arrived directly at the prefectural mansion.
"Tell your governor to come out and see me!"
As soon as he arrived here, Zhao Ting got off the carriage and his voice was like rolling thunder, echoing throughout the prefectural mansion.
Ling Mo had already prepared here, and when he heard the sound he strode out directly.
Chen Xuan stood behind him. At this moment, Chen Xuan was wearing the standard armor worn by a centurion, just like a little follower of Ling Mo.
"Master Zhao, please forgive me for not coming to greet you."
Ling Mo was also wearing armor, which showed that he was a military general, not a civil official.
"Are you the general of Barbarian City?"
Zhao Ting knew Ling Mo's identity at a glance.
Ling Mo nodded: "Exactly!"
Zhao Ting snorted coldly, "I don't want to see you. Where is your governor? Tell him to get out here. This family master has something to ask him."
However, Ling Mo suddenly sighed, a depressed look on his face.
"What do you mean? Don't you understand me?"
Seeing that Ling Mo had no intention of calling for help, but was sighing alone, Zhao Ting's face turned gloomy.
A mere general of a barbarian city dares not listen to me?
Ling Mo sighed again and said seriously, "Master Zhao, it's not that I don't want to follow your words, but the governor is not in Barbarian City."
"Not in Barbarian City?"
Zhao Ting frowned. "He's a prefect, he's not allowed to leave without orders. If he's not in Barbarian City, where else could he be?"
Ling Mo sighed and said, "He was captured by the Tianshan Sect. I'm afraid he's in great danger."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ting's face suddenly darkened.
It would be fine if the person was not in Mancheng, but he was actually captured by people from Tianshan Sect. What does Tianshan Sect mean by this?
Ling Mo observed Zhao Ting's reaction, then secretly glanced at Chen Xuan out of the corner of his eye.
Chen Xuanhe blinked, signaling him not to stop and continue speaking.
Ling Mo then continued, "A few days ago, the wife of Prefect Zhang Tao, Qin Tingyu, was molested by Zhao Zhong, a young master of the Zhao family. He tried to take her by force, but Qin Tingyu was connected to the Tianshan Sect. As a result, Zhao Zhong was captured by the Tianshan Sect. Naturally, our Prefect Zhang Tao knew about this."
"The governor wanted to plead with the Tianshan Sect to spare Zhao Zhong, but the Tianshan Sect refused to listen and reprimanded him, saying that if he dared to plead for Zhao Zhong again, he would not be spared!"
"There's nothing we can do. The Tianshan Sect can't afford to offend. The governor can only endure it."
"Unexpectedly, just yesterday, a steward named Zhao Fusheng came to the Zhao family."
When Zhao Ting heard the three words "Zhao Fusheng", his eyes flashed.
His voice was dignified, intimidating even without anger, "Go on."
Ling Mo nodded and continued, "After Zhao Fusheng learned what happened from us, he borrowed pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from us, wrote a letter, and sent it back to the Zhao family. I'm sure the head of the family has already seen the letter."
Zhao Ting hummed.
He had indeed seen that letter yesterday, and he was furious at the time.
Ling Mo paused and continued, "After writing this letter, Manager Zhao Fusheng went to the Tianshan Sect in person, saying he wanted to ask for someone from the Tianshan Sect. We all advised him not to be impulsive, saying that the Tianshan Sect was unreasonable and arrogant, but he didn't take it seriously. In his opinion, the Tianshan Sect wouldn't dare to disrespect the Zhao family."
Hearing this, Zhao Ting's expression relaxed a little.
It seemed that he was very satisfied after hearing this. The Zhao family's face was very important, and even the Tianshan Sect did not dare to refuse it, which made him very satisfied.
