Chapter 69: Pick it up in person
"Boss, we've checked, Ling Feng went to the Royal Forest Army camp, and he won't be able to come back for a while!"
In a hidden corner not far from the back wall of the Ling family, more than a dozen warriors gathered around a lean man and whispered.
"Well, except for Ling Feng, the rest of the Ling family has nothing to fear!" The lean man nodded with satisfaction, his eyes swept over everyone: "Everyone is ready to act, today must make the entire Ling family restless!"
"Yes!"
Everyone whispered in unison, and was about to jump over the wall into the Ling family, but they heard a burst of "rumbling" sound from far and near, quickly approaching.
As the "rumbling" sound became stronger and stronger, the sound of kicking horses' hooves and the orderly sound of heavy armor could be faintly heard, and listening to this formation, there were thousands of troops and horses rushing towards the Ling family.
"Boss, this is ......" The martial artists looked at the lean man in surprise, with a puzzled expression, they were a little puzzled, how could the army of the imperial family suddenly appear near the Ling family?
The lean man frowned, he was also a little confused, for the sake of prudence, he instructed his subordinates: "Don't act rashly first, wait for the army to leave before acting!"
Although they were doing things for the eldest prince, their move was to kill the family members of the imperial court officials, and they couldn't see the light at all, so they naturally had to avoid the eyes and ears of the army.
But to their surprise, the army that came turned out to be the Imperial Forest Army responsible for guarding the Imperial City! What surprised them even more was that the 1,000 Imperial Forest Army with spears in their hands were directly guarding around the Ling family, just like defending the Imperial City!
Under strict defense, the current Ling family can be said to not even be able to fly a fly in, let alone that they want to sneak attack the Ling family.
"Boss, the Ling family is protected by the Imperial Forest Army, what should we do?" a martial artist asked cautiously beside the lean man.
"It's not like I don't have eyes!I can see it!" the lean man glared at the warrior who had spoken earlier.
He didn't expect that Zuo Yu would actually transfer the Imperial Forest Army to guard the Ling family, the combat effectiveness of the Royal Forest Army was naturally undoubted, and only a dozen of his own people were not enough to stuff people's teeth, let alone rush in to kill the Ling family's people.
"Withdraw! Let's go back and report this to the eldest prince!" the thin man gritted his teeth fiercely, waved his hand unwillingly, and quietly retreated with a group of subordinates......
......
In the left camp of the Royal Forest Army, Xue Xiaoxiao was finally sent away, Ling Feng breathed a long sigh of relief, if Xue Xiaoxiao asked again, he was afraid that he would be exposed.
He couldn't figure it out, why did Xue Xiaoxiao leave Xiaohua in the Ling family? Could it be to protect everyone in the Ling family? But at least so far, the value of Xiaohua's third-order divine beast has not been reflected at all.
In Ling Feng's opinion, what kind of six-colored blood-eyed lion is the size of a palm and covered in fur, but it really looks like a pet.
"Brother Ling Feng, congratulations!" While Ling Feng was pondering, Gao Xuan on the side said to him with a smile.
"Congratulations on me?" Ling Feng looked puzzled, "Congratulations on me?"
Gao Xuan smiled and leaned over to Ling Feng's ear: "Didn't you see it?"
"See what?" Ling Feng blinked, confused.
Gao Xuan said mysteriously: "I don't believe you don't feel it, the little princess seems to have a little bit of meaning for you!"
Ling Feng was stunned.
He is not a wooden person, and he has more or less felt the change in Xue Xiaoxiao's attitude towards himself. She seems to have a genuine affection for herself. As for whether he liked himself or not, Ling Feng was not sure.
Even if she really likes herself, what can she do? she already has a good girl like Yan'er as a wife, how can she be attached to another woman?
"Brother Gao, it's better to say less about this kind of joke in the future! Be careful that trouble comes out of your mouth!" Ling Feng reminded Gao Xuan with a smile and changed the subject, "I have to go to the Qing family now, and I still ask Brother Gao to help me with more snacks about the affairs in the camp." "Yesterday he promised the Great Elder of the Qing Family, so he is now going to go to the Qing Family to see what he needs help with.
Gao Xuan smiled: "Don't worry, you go and get busy with you, I'll leave it to my brother here!"
After thanking Gao Xuan, Ling Feng took the "Black Wind" from the hands of a centurion, jumped on the horse, clamped his legs, and rode the "Black Wind" outward.
As soon as he came out of the Royal Forest Barracks, Ling Feng saw several horsemen in front of him coming towards him, and the first one was an old man with crane hair and a childish face, who was the patriarch of the Qing family, Qing Zhan. Behind him were the Great Elder of the Qing Family, Aoba and several guards.
"Ling Feng has seen the Quartet General!"
Ling Feng restrained the "black wind" and smiled at Qing Zhan.
Qing Zhan had already seen Ling Feng, stretched out his hand to grab the reins of the horse, and asked with a smile: "I don't know where Vice Capital Ling is going, but there is something important to do?"
Qing Zhanping has always been a dignified appearance in the court and family, but today he actually smiled at Ling Feng without saying a word, which shows that Ling Feng's status in his heart has become very important.
"I promised the Great Elder yesterday that I would go to your Qing family. Now I'm getting ready to rush over. Ling Feng replied, seeing that everyone in the Qing family was dressed in formal clothes, it was estimated that they had something important to do, and couldn't help but smile, "It seems that I didn't catch up at the right time." Since the general had something important, Ling Feng changed his name and came to visit again. After saying that, he wanted to turn the horse's head.
Hearing Ling Feng's words, Qing Zhan was slightly stunned, glanced at his own outfit, and suddenly laughed out loud, stretched out his hand to Ling Feng and said, "It seems that Vice President Ling has misunderstood you." We're dressed up to greet you!"
"Welcome me?" This time it was Ling Feng's turn to be stunned.
Qing Zhan explained with a smile: "The Great Elder and Aoba have already told the old man everything about yesterday. Since you want to ask Deputy Ling to help, how can I let you come in person. As the head of the clan, I, Qing Zhan, naturally have to personally greet Vice President Ling on behalf of the Qing family! Moreover, this can show the sincerity of our Qing family!"
Ling Feng couldn't help but be shocked.
Qing Zhan, the patriarch of the Qing family, actually came to greet him in person? And he was dressed so formally? You know, when the Qing family asked for an alliance with the Ling family, they only sent a deacon from Qingye to come. And today they attach so much importance to themselves? It is not difficult to imagine how much the entire Qing family attaches great importance to this matter of helping them!
Qing Zhan smiled: "It's better to meet by chance. Now that he met Deputy Du Ling here, the old man is no longer polite. Then the old man will lead the way and accompany Deputy Ling to the Qing family, what do you think?"
"Okay! There is General Lao Quartet. Ling Feng smiled, "Anyway, there are no outsiders, you can just call me Ling Feng." ”
"Okay!Ling Feng Xiaoyou, please come here!" Qing Zhan smiled slightly, turned the horse's head, and accompanied Ling Feng to the Qing family.
While riding forward, Ling Feng secretly guessed in his heart, what was so important that he was able to let the patriarch of the Qing family, Qing Zhandu, come and greet me in person?
