Chapter 48: The Marquis of Loyalty Makes a Move
Translator: 549690339
As a friend, Zhang Ronghua casually mentioned,””You need my help?”
“You can mobilize the Flood Dragon Guards for private matters?” Lu Zhantang stopped and asked with a frown.”
“1st Battalion!”
“Adding twenty people on my side, it’s enough.”
Seemingly having guessed that he was puzzled, she opened her mouth to explain.
“I’ve been isolated by the True Dragon Palace and can’t mobilize the others. These are all my trusted aides and I can trust them completely.”
After discussing it, the two of them separated.
Zhang Ronghua went back home first and called Zheng Fugui. He asked him to go to the Eastern Palace to call for people and bring a battalion of people to look for suspicious dogs in the southern part of the city.
Puzzled, he hurried toward the Eastern Palace.
He didn’t stay idle either. He shuttled through the city, looking for traces of the dog.
During this time, they met the people from the Divine Tiger Bodyguard Agency, as well as Pang Bing and the others. They were all looking for the dog, but they did not meet each other. They also did not find him, but they bumped into Lu Zhantang. Seeing that he was looking for the dog with his confidants, Pang Bing and the others had a bad feeling. Things were about to get out of control. They had not fought yet, and they had already separated when they met.
After Lu Zhantang left with his men, he hurriedly called over a trusted aide and asked him to pass the news back.
Fifteen minutes later.
It confirmed Pang Bing’s guess. Zheng Fugui had brought a battalion of Flood
Dragon Guards and joined in. He thought of Lu Zhantang’s reliance on the
Crown Prince, and a bold guess appeared in his mind. He hurriedly found Lin Shiyuan and said with a solemn expression, “The Crown Prince has made his move. ”
The latter was even more ruthless. He made a throat-cutting gesture and said with killing intent,”ln for a penny, in for a pound. Get rid of them!”
“Foolish! With the Flood Dragon Guards and Lu Zhantang, even if we can destroy them, we’ll be killed after this! Moreover, since the Crown Prince had taken action, he must have received the news. He was not sure yet. He would let the Flood Dragon Guards test the waters first. If he killed them and confirmed his guess, he would not have enough manpower.”
“Then what do you think we should do?”
Pang Bing’s face was cold. His fingers were tightly clenched together, and his fingernails dug into his flesh without him noticing. Things had developed to this point, and it was a matter of life and death. If they could not find the dog that had escaped before them, everyone would die, and even their families would suffer.
There was no way out!
When faced with a desperate situation, most people would choose to take a wild gamble. If they won, everything would be fine.
If they lost, they would have to eat a few pieces of meat since they were going to die anyway.
“Our strength alone is not enough. After searching for an entire afternoon, we haven’t even finished searching the southern part of the city! Let Lord Marquis make a move, then let him pressure the Nancheng County government to send people to search for it. With so many of our forces, I don’t believe we can’t find
“But this way, the matter will blow up and make others suspicious! The Crown
Prince might send more people.”
“Do we have other methods?”
Lin Shiyuan was silent. They were forced into a dead end.
Pang Bing patted him on the shoulder, his gaze vicious like a ferocious beast.””Elder Lin, we have no other way out. If we don’t be ruthless now, we will kill this dog before they react!”
“I understand!”
Just as he was about to leave with the people of the Godly Tiger Escort Agency, he stopped in his tracks and voiced his concerns.”What if this damn dog escapes from South City?”
“I won’t!” Pang Bing shook his head.
“According to the news I received, it is still here. Moreover, after the incident, Lord Marquis had already ordered people to secretly seal off the south city. If it escaped, it would be impossible for us not to know.”
“Let’s go!”
The people from the Godly Tiger Bodyguard Agency left and looked for the dog again.
This time, their temperaments had changed. Their gazes were vicious and their killing intent soared to the sky. One could feel their killing intent from far away.
According to the plan.
Pang Bing sent a message again and told them the seriousness of the matter.
He immediately sent it back and led the people of the True Dragon Palace to search the area.
At the Loyalty Marquis Manor.
In the study room.
The lights were brightly lit, and the Loyalty Marquis sat on the main seat. His square face was stern and filled with killing intent. His gaze was like a knife, shooting out a terrifying cold light. His powerful aura was like a mountain.
Other than him, his three sons were also there.
After what happened during the day, he had sent people to seal off South City and then sent the news to Pang Bing and Lin Shiyuan, asking them to find this damn dog at all costs.
From the afternoon until now, he had not gone anywhere and was waiting for news in the study.
As time passed, the uneasiness in his heart grew stronger. He couldn’t tell where this feeling came from.
However, he could not panic. If he panicked, he would definitely die this time.
Thinking of everything that had happened these days, they had almost all their cards played, leaving only some rotten fish and smelly prawns. Otherwise, with their immense power, they would have found this dead dog long ago.
Right now, they could only hope that Pang Bing and Lin Shiyuan would give them some strength. Even if they were exposed later, it did not matter. As long as they destroyed it, they would not lose. There was still hope for everything.
The sound of hurried footsteps came from outside. Hearing the commotion, the four of them immediately looked up. Marquis Zhongyi was still alright. After all, he had experienced great storms. Even if Mount Tai was about to collapse, his shrewdness was still intact.
However, his three sons did not have the ability to do so. Their anxious expressions betrayed them.
The door was pushed open.
The old butler came in from outside, panting heavily. He didn’t dare to delay and told Pang Bing the news.
After listening.
The study was deathly silent. One could even hear a pin drop on the ground.
The four of them looked at the Loyalty Marquis, only to see that his gaze was becoming sharper and sharper. The cold light that shot out from him no longer belonged to a human, but to a berserk beast.
“Pang Bing did the right thing! He had to get rid of it before the Crown Prince could react! For this reason, even if he exposed some of his strength and aroused his suspicion, he could not care so much.”
He looked at his eldest son.
“Go to the county government now and tell them that the treasure in my residence was stolen by a demon dog. Ask the county magistrate to send out all his men to search for it just in case.”
He then looked at his two remaining sons.
“Bring everyone in the residence to help and keep an eye on the Crown Prince’s men. If they find the demon dog before us, even if they die in battle, they must destroy it!”
He waited for them to leave.
The loyal duke stood up from his chair. He could no longer suppress his anger. He grabbed the teacup beside him and smashed it on the ground in anger. He then kicked the table and chairs over and cursed, “Damned beast!”
The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. Things had already changed, and the Crown Prince was involved. He could not sit still anymore.
“I’ll leave the mansion to you. I’ll personally take action!”
In the Eastern Palace.
Just as the Crown Prince was about to fall asleep, Qing ‘er rushed in from outside and stopped beside him.””There’s news that the treasures in the Loyalty Marquis ‘Residence have been stolen by the demon dog. He has already made his move and asked the Eldest Young Master to pressure the Nancheng County Government to send people to search for them.”
Just now.
Zheng Fugui came over to call for help, saying that he was going to help Lu Zhantang get rid of Pang Bing. He brought a battalion of men and left. Out of caution, he asked the secret forces to investigate.
They wouldn’t have known if they hadn’t checked, but they were shocked when they checked. The entire South City was filled with people. It wasn’t too much to say that they were like an iron bucket..
