Chapter 1336: The Awesome Wuhu
Xiahou Zheng had never won against Ling Yun.
It was not that he could not win against Ling Yun, but he could not be as fearless as Ling Yun.
After all, they were biological children. No matter how arrogant Ling Yun was, how rebellious he was, and how he did not give Xiahou Qing face, Xiahou Qing could not bear to really blame his son.
If it were the four of them, any one of their actions would probably have caused them to be abandoned.
Xiahou Zheng had once been jealous of his second brother, who was dependable , and his talented fourth son, but those were just temporary emotions.
This was because he understood that he was the eldest son and the strongest son. With his third brother willing to assist him, the position of City Lord would definitely be his in the future.
Ling Yun’s appearance made Xiahou Zheng experience the jealousy in the depths of his soul.
He looked at Ling Yun’s world-weary face and wished he could rush over and tear it apart.
But he couldn’t do that.
He suppressed the turmoil in his heart in time and returned to the topic. “I’m ordered to capture the prisoner. Young Palace Lord, it’s better for you to cooperate obediently.”
“There are no prisoners in the Hundred Flowers Palace.”
At this moment, the coachman who had been “encircled” walked out from behind Xiahou Qing.
He said indignantly, “I can testify… Two criminals hijacked my carriage and forced me to bring them to the vicinity of the Hundred Flowers Palace. They even tried to silence me. Fortunately, I escaped!”
“Who do you think you are to slander the Hundred Flowers Palace?”
At this moment, the young disciple in the lead said, “Aiya, isn’t this the thief who stole our Hundred Flowers Palace’s sheep last time? He was beaten up by us and thrown out. Why? Are you unconvinced and came to slander the Hundred Flowers Palace?”
The coachman was shocked. “You… you’re making things up!”
Ling Yun said to Xiahou Zheng, “Look, you have a witness, so do I.”
Xiahou Zheng raised the City Lord token. “Father sent me over! Are you disobeying Father’s orders?”
Ling Yun snorted. “Who knows if you took a chicken feather as a command arrow? Unless the City Lord comes personally, no one can cross over me!”
Xiahou Zheng said word by word, “Don’t force me to do it.”
Ling Yun glanced at everyone and said fearlessly, “Just attack. If you hurt me, the City Lord will blame you. I want to see who can bear the responsibility.”
The guards looked at each other. For a moment, no one dared to go forward.
A cold glint flashed across Xiahou Zheng’s eyes.
Don’t think he couldn’t tell that Yun Lin was deliberately provoking him.
Once he injured Yun Lin, regardless of whether it was because of Yun Lin, the City Lord would blame him.
However, Yun Lin was probably naive if he thought that he could not do anything to him.
It was enough to tap his acupoint and prevent him from blocking the way again.
The disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace could tell that Xiahou Zheng was up to no good and blocked him.
However, they were not Xiahou Qing’s sons, so Xiahou Zheng did not have to be polite to them.
“Stand down!” Ling Yun ordered.
Xiahou Zheng sneered. “There’s no chance to retreat!”
He slapped the horse’s back and jumped up. With a twist of his waist, he slapped at the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace.
The disciples swore not to retreat!
Just as Ling Yun was about to be seriously injured by him, a tall figure suddenly descended from the sky and punched Xiahou Zheng’s fierce palm.
Xiahou Zheng was sent flying by a terrifying internal force. After landing on the ground, he immediately tightened his steps, but he still slid back more than ten feet. The soles of his feet were flat.
Looking at the two long ravines in front of him, Xiahou Zheng’s expression darkened.
The eyes of the disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace lit up. “Lord Duanmu!”
Wei Xu placed his hands behind his back and walked forward with a powerful aura. “Let’s see who dares to touch my son today!”
On the other side, Mo Xie brought Yuwen Xi and Yuwen Huai to the Hundred Flowers Palace.
Xiaohu ate too much at night and his stomach hurt until midnight.
The Palace Lord kept hugging him. She couldn’t bear to put him down even when he was asleep.
When Mo Xie saw her, she was still carrying Xiao Hu.
Mo Xie was very surprised. He didn’t expect the cold and domineering Palace Lord to have such a gentle side.
“I’ve troubled Palace Lord.”
Mo Xie said shamefully.
Palace Lord didn’t find it troublesome.
The enemy of an enemy was an ally. Even without the relationship between Mo Xie and her daughter-in-law, she would still take in Yuwen Xi and Yuwen Huai.
It was just that it did not feel good to be schemed against.
She felt like punching someone.
She asked Ling Yin to arrange a room for the two of them and carried Xiaohto the Flying Cloud Palace.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao come out of the house, she asked, “It’s so late. Are you still awake?”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded and said, “Wuhu just woke me up and said that something happened.”
For Wuhu, today is also a day to work hard to earn bird food!
The Palace Lord originally didn’t want to wake Su Xiaoxiao up, but she missed Wuhu.
She said, “Xiaohu is asleep. I’ll go see Ling Yun.”
Su Xiaoxiao raised her index finger. “Dad has already gone.”
Palace Lord was dumbfounded
Ghostfear and Wei Liulang also went. The two of them disguised themselves as disciples of the Hundred Flowers Palace and mixed in with a group of disciples who had just left the mountain.
However, this could only delay things. After all, Xiahou Zheng did have the City Lord Token.
Ling Yun could throw a tantrum and make things difficult for Xiahou Zheng, and Xiahou Zheng could send someone to the City Lord’s Mansion to get reinforcements. When Xiahou Qing or the elders arrived, they would not be able to stop him.
If they insisted on stopping him, it would be equivalent to confirming it.
After thinking about it, Su Xiaoxiao decided to strike first.
She carried Xiaohu back to her room and wrote a note for Wuhu to send to the City Lord Manor.
Wuhu rejected in its heart.
“A piece of bird food,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
Wu Hu exploded. Wouldn’t pay for the night shift be doubled?
Su Xiaoxiao said, “One for each trip. If you make ten trips, I’ll give you ten.”
Wuhu flapped its wings. It was a deal!
Wuhu rode its golden eagle carriage and flew majestically to the City Lord Manor.
Su Xiaoxiao was right. Xiahou Zheng had indeed sent someone to the City Lord Manor to complain about Ling Yun.
However, how could a horse be faster than a bird?
Wuhu flapped its wings and landed on Xie Jinnian’s windowsill.
The window was closed.
Wuhu knocked politely on the window with its bird beak.
Xie Jinnian was a light sleeper. He immediately sat up and walked over to open the window. He looked at his beloved bird that had been missing for many days and could not hide his surprise. “Ruyi?”
Wu Hu extended one of his bird claws.
Xie Jinnian looked at the note tied to it and opened it suspiciously.
There was a line of words written on it. “Second Young Master, do you want to make a deal?”
Signed: Cheng Su.
Xie Jinnian narrowed his eyes.
Wuhu sensed the killing intent and quietly moved to the side.
Xie Jinnian looked at Wuhu coldly. “So you’ve always been a spy.”
Wu Hu thought for a moment and clumsily moved back. It stuck its head to his hand obsequiously, showing his extremely strong talent.
“Ruyi loves you! Ruyi loves you! Ruyi loves you!”
So it could speak… Xie Jinnian’s face was cold. “Heh.”
There were a few lines of small words on the back of the note. “It’s called Wuhu. With it as the hostage, ask the golden eagle to bring the letter back if you want to understand the transaction.”
Wuhu still did not know that it had been sold by his black-hearted mistress. He chirped excitedly, “Fatty! Fatty! Fatty!”
Bird food! Bird food! Bird food!
Xie Jinnian chuckled. “Does your master really think I care about you?”
Wuhu looked at him suspiciously. “Ew.”
Xie Jinnian lowered the window.
The rejected Wuhu outside the window was speechless.
After a moment, the window opened again.
A slender jade-like hand stretched out and grabbed Wuhu. At the same time, he threw out a note.
The golden eagle caught it in its mouth and flew away.
Wuhu fell into Xie Jinnian’s palm with a tuft of hair.
