It was already late December, and this winter was exceptionally cold, even in the south, it was a persistent chill, and the people in Zhao Mansion were busy as usual in thick cotton clothes.

"Ling Yu, Ling Yu." Zhao Bohan muttered Ling Yu's name, his hands clenched into fists, his nails about to sink into the flesh.

"Young Master, today's subordinates reported that Miss Qian and Ling Yu accompanied Teucer to the Purple Mountain to enjoy the snow again." Wang Bin reported expressionlessly on the side.

"Ling Yu, this son and you are incompatible." Zhao Bohan roared angrily, during this time, he could often get some information about Qian Ruomei's contact with Ling Yu through the eyes of his subordinates, at first he thought it was official contact, but gradually, Zhao Bohan found that Qian Ruomei would often go in and out of the Lingke Chamber of Commerce to meet Ling Yu, which made Zhao Bohan jealous.

"Young master, do you need your subordinates to do something?" Wang Bin saw that Zhao Bohan was angry, so he asked out loud, he hoped that he could serve Zhao Bohan.

"Now that Ling Yu is surrounded by a lot of guards, you say, what can you do to him." Zhao Bohan said angrily, now Ling Yu is accompanied by two platoons of soldiers, which makes it difficult for Zhao Bohan to make some small moves, and he dare not make big moves.

"Young Master, according to the report from his subordinates, recently due to Ling Yu's wedding date, Princess Yangcheng no longer manages the Spirit Science Chamber of Commerce, and is temporarily replaced by Xinyue, I wonder if the young master needs to make some articles with Xinyue?" Wang Bin reported.

"Xinyue? I remembered that the Oiran I was redeemed by me and gave to Ling Yu, hmph, Ling Yu, this bastard, with a princess and a flower-like Xinyue, is unforgivable to provoke Ruomei. Zhao Bohan said angrily again.

"Young Master, my subordinates feel that they can find an opportunity to catch Xinyue, and then force Ling Yu to comply, such as the method of making new weapons from his mouth." Wang Bin said with an idea.

"Hmm...... You are reasonable, now the disadvantage of our Zhao family is in weapons, if we have Ling Yu's new weapons, presumably we don't have to be afraid of the imperial court anymore. Zhao Bohan's anger gradually subsided, and he began to consider the benefits he could obtain.

"Young Master is wise." Wang Bin slapped a sycophant.

"Wang Bin, in order to be safe, you send some fourth-level or above spirit masters to do things, a while ago, my father sent 8 fourth-level spirit masters and 2 fifth-level spirit masters, all of which were handed over to you for dispatch, this matter must be handled safely, you can't stay in the city if you catch someone, I have a separate courtyard 3 kilometers outside the south gate, and I will be placed under house arrest there, and then send a letter to Ling Yu and ask him to come alone, hum, Ling Yu, this bastard, dare to rob my woman, just let you taste the taste of a woman being robbed by others." Zhao Bohan said with a sneer.

"Yes, my subordinates will arrange it, and inform the young master when the matter is completed." Wang Bin respectfully received the order.

"Well, don't be rough for the time being, I want Ling Yu to watch me destroy his woman with my own eyes." Zhao Bohan said ruthlessly.

On this side, Zhao Bohan was calculating Ling Yu's family, and on the other side, Ling Yu and Qian Ruomei accompanied Tuo and the others to visit near the Purple Mountain, although it was cold, but the interest of Tuo and the others was still quite high.

"Dear Ling, I have to say that the mountains and rivers of Da Zhou are really magnificent." Teucer has been in Jinling for more than half a month and has visited many places, and under this situation, Teucer still sighs with such feelings.

"Mr. Torke, I still have a lot of magnificent mountains and rivers in Dazhou, if I have the opportunity in the future, I can also take you to visit, and it is more pleasant to see this beautiful scenery after work." Ling Yu smiled, and Qian Ruomei smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Ling, I have to say, you Chinese people are really quite an excellent race, with a vast territory, strong national strength, advanced magic technology, oh, you are called psionic technology, I hope our two countries have always been friends." Teucer said meaningfully, but both sides know that there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests, and if the interests of the two sides do not coincide one day, no matter what treaty can be torn up in an instant.

"Hehe, of course, my Da Zhou and Da Ying have always been good friends, haven't we, we won't have a hard time with gold coins." Ling Yu quipped.

"Hehe, Ling, you are different from other people, I prefer to communicate with you, you are right, our two countries have always been good friends." Teucer smiled as well.

The place they visited was on the periphery of the Purple Mountain, and of course Ling Yu would not take them to the base for a tour, but the scenery here was already very good, and Traucer and the others were also very happy, so it can be said that they gained a lot from this trip to the Great Zhou.

After some touring, Teucer and the others got a little tired, so they went down the mountain and began to return to the city.

Xin Yue was sorting out the accounts of this day in the shop of the Chamber of Commerce, looking at the wealth rolling in, Xin Yue smiled, it was not that she was greedy for money, but that her own Chamber of Commerce made money, who would be unhappy.

"Second lady, it's closing time today, do you think you can close the shop?" Xinyue had just finished sorting out the accounts, sorted out the ledger and stacked it aside, and was ordering someone to store it in the treasury when she heard a report from the guy on the side.

"Well, let's just do it as you normally would." Xinyue readily agreed, looking at the sky, it was almost time to go back to prepare dinner, after a while, Ling Yu would return home after finishing his official business, and then she could have dinner with Ling Yu again, Xinyue thought of Ling Yu's heart with tenderness.

Of course, Xinyue, the second lady, doesn't have to worry about this kind of thing, the guys in the store have been doing it for so long and are very skilled, and Xinyue is sitting on the soft and comfortable sofa in the hospitality area to rest for a while, waiting for the guys to go home when they are done.

"Second lady, you have packed up and can go back." This time I came to report on the soldiers who Ling Yu put at home, there was a platoon of troops, because Xinyue had to travel every day, so the platoon commander stationed in Lingfu sent a squad of soldiers to protect Xinyue, and it was their squad leader who spoke.

"Well, let's go." Xinyue said with a smile, and then got up and went out.

After getting into the carriage, Xin Yue's heart suddenly trembled, and she had a bad premonition, but looking at the soldiers guarding around the carriage, she was a little relieved, Ling Mansion was in Suzaku Fang, and it was for Ling Yu to go to the academy at that time, although he didn't go to school later, but Ling Yu never thought about moving, he was used to it, and he could also take a carriage to the Qinglongfang store. vertex

The carriage walked on the bluestone paved road, the wheels made a creaking sound in contact with the ground, because it had been snowing recently, the sky was darker than when it was sunny, and now it was dark, although this road Xinyue had to walk once a day during this time, but I don't know why, Xinyue always felt uneasy in her heart, so she ordered the soldiers outside the carriage to speed up.

Everyone walked for a while, and came to a relatively quiet path, which was also the road that Xinyue chose to speed up when she returned home every day, the road was not big, just wider than a carriage, which also allowed the soldiers guarding around to walk.

Just when Xinyue was anxious, a sudden change occurred, and unknown black-clothed people appeared in front and behind to block the road, there were about 20 people, and the squad leader knew that his group was ambushed at a glance.

"Second lady, don't panic, the subordinates will protect the second lady, and they will also send someone to inform the lord and invite reinforcements." The squad leader said in a calm and deep voice, as the first batch of elites trained by Ling Yu personally, he naturally handled things in a more orderly manner.

After the squad leader finished speaking to Xin Yue, he began to order his 10 soldiers to defend separately, and then transfer a few people from among them to find an opportunity to break through and move the rescue troops.

"Hold your hands tied, lest you mistake yourself." A man in black who seemed to be the leader walked out, and the light of the spirit rune was still shining in his hand, and the squad leader looked at the purple spiritual energy of the spirit rune energy in his hand, and his pupils shrank, he was actually a fifth-level spirit master, he was afraid that this time the matter would be difficult, and the squad leader himself was only a fourth-level spirit master.

"Brothers, it seems that everyone is afraid that they are going to fight hard this time, are you afraid?" The squad leader asked the soldiers in a loud voice.

"Don't be afraid." All the sergeants replied loudly, their faces showing resolute expressions, and they naturally saw each other's fifth-level spirit masters.

"Hehe, since that's the case, let's take action." The man in black ordered softly.

"Brothers, do it, find an opportunity to escape and report to the lord, and ask the lord to avenge us." The squad leader said, and then led the sergeants to shoot at the man in black.

"Crackling" There was a gunshot sound, and the bullet hit the defense supported by the man in black with the ice armor talisman, only listening to the clanging sound, the bullets were quickly bounced away, after all, the power of the bullet was only equivalent to the power of the third-level and a half-level runes, where could the ice armor supported by the fifth-level spirit master be broken.

But even so, the squad leader still led everyone to shoot all the time, and the man in black wanted to do it together, but when he saw his own leader waving his hand to stop it, and then watched the other party shoot with interest, he didn't move, waiting for the order.

The leader of the men in black was extremely surprised, the soldiers kept shooting, although the bullets were bounced off, but each bullet would consume the spiritual energy in the body of the black-clothed person, if the number of soldiers was large, then it is estimated that he would eventually run out of spiritual energy in his body and die, but now these more than ten people, I am afraid that they will not be able to exhaust his spiritual energy for a period of time.

The squad leader was sweating profusely, although he knew that he was doing useless work, he still had hope, because Ling Yu had also said when he was training them that theoretically, by shooting non-stop all the time, it was possible to exhaust the opponent's spiritual energy, so as to break through the high-level defensive spirit runes or runes.

The man in black frowned and felt the power of the bullet, and after a while, the man in black lost his patience, he had already understood the performance of this weapon, and he already felt that these soldiers could not stay, and by the way, they could snatch their weapons back to study and study.

I saw that the man in black waved his hand and motioned to the subordinates waiting on the side to do it, and the others received the order to rush up, preparing to strangle these sergeants and complete the tasks assigned above.

"Brothers, they're going to do it, let's be loyal today, now I order, activate the rifle self-destruction rune." The squad leader shouted, the spirit guides or weapons made by Ling Yu all have self-destruct runes, and violent dismantling will be activated, of course, it can also be activated by the user, this is to avoid giving people a chance to study.

I saw that everyone activated the self-destruction rune, and a burst of light flickered, and the rifles of more than ten sergeants turned into powder, and then took out the spare battle spirit rune and fought with the black-clothed people.

"The four of you escort the second lady to break through." The squad leader quickly approached the carriage, and then instructed the four sergeants in the car to find an opportunity to break through.

"Can you run?" The leader of the men in black sneered, today can be regarded as laying a net to prevent them from escaping.

The narrow path suddenly flashed with light, spirit runes flew, and the collision of energy of various colors made a loud sound.

"Hurry up and end the battle, this is still in the city, it is easy to attract guards patrolling the city, and it will be very troublesome at that time." Seeing this, the leader of the men in black said.

After receiving the order, the black-clothed people no longer kept, and took out their strongest strength to start fighting, and the sergeants fell one after another without supporting their psionic energy, and then were killed, the squad leader was stunned when he saw this, but there was nothing he could do, and the carriage was also surrounded by the black-clothed people, and it seemed that he couldn't run out.

Soon, the sergeants had all fallen, and only the seriously injured squad leader was left to support himself.

Seeing this, the leader of the men in black knew that his goal had been achieved, and said with a relaxed smile: "You go back and tell Lord Ling that if you want the second lady to be safe, you can go to the manor three kilometers outside the south gate alone." Then he ordered the black-clothed people to pull the carriage and go out of the city, and if they delayed any longer, the guards would come.

"Who are you, don't you know what the consequences of offending Lord Ling are?" The squad leader supported the seriously injured body.

"You pass the word, you don't need to know anything else." The leader of the men in black sneered, he knew who his master was, would he be afraid of Ling Yu?

Soon, the black-clothed people retreated cleanly, and the squad leader could no longer support his body and fell to the ground, and soon, a city patrol guard found here, but the squad leader didn't have time to explain the situation, just asked the guards to send him to Ling Mansion quickly.
