Chapter 724: Yong'an City
Feng Boyuan, who was at the front of the team, waved his hand, and one of his men rode up to him.
"What's wrong with those five rough guys? They dared to push my men away. Are they masters of the palace?" Feng Boyuan asked his men. All of this was heard clearly by the four guys.
"Reply to the general, the five of them are guards that Liu Gonggong temporarily recruited in Lin'an. Their specific origins are unknown. They are very good at gambling. Even Lin'an gambling king Li Shusheng was defeated by them."
The four guys found that the intelligence work in this world was done well. Perhaps they were particularly interested in these spies' intelligence because of the intrigues for power all day long. It was really not easy to do this under the condition of relying entirely on manpower. These people live in various conspiracies all day long and their adaptability is obviously enhanced.
"Gambling skills? I know."
The cavalry saluted and turned to ride away. Feng Boyuan didn't know what he was thinking while walking.
A team of carriages and horses arrived outside Yong'an City in less than an hour. Yong'an City was still a prosperous city. Because it was far away from the central part of Shenwu Continent, there was no large-scale riot. People entered and exited the city gate in an orderly manner. Various caravans and packhorses came one after another. Because there were too many horses and ox carts, there was a common problem in the cities of Shenwu Continent, that is, feces could be seen everywhere. Although there were special people to clean it, the smell could not be covered up, even the imperial city was no exception.
The carriages and horses entered Yong'an City in a mighty manner and headed straight for the city lord's mansion.
The four Death Scorpions kept listening to the conversations of the people around them. As they listened, they found something interesting. It turned out that Feng Boyuan had a widely circulated but no one dared to say it out loud. It was said that Feng Boyuan's father, the Lord of Yong'an City, was also a local tyrant. However, he married more than a dozen wives and still could not give birth to a child. It was not until he was nearly 40 that he gave birth to a son like Feng Boyuan. However, according to rumors, there was another truth. Feng Boyuan's father was actually a homosexual who liked men. It was rumored in Yong'an City that all his wives were still virgins.
As for Feng Boyuan, he looked like a handsome man with red lips and white teeth. He didn't look like his father at all. Instead, he looked exactly like the handsome man his father loved. It was rumored that his father had a deep affection for the handsome man and simply let him have a son with his wife. As for how to have sex, it was much simpler. The incense was used, and the handsome man went in and worked around, and then Feng Boyuan was born.
Although Feng Boyuan is the son of the handsome man with gay sleeves, the Lord of Yong'an doesn't care. He loves his son, and he likes his son. This is a rare existence in Shenwu Continent.
Not long after entering the city, we arrived at the Lord's Mansion. Unlike other ordinary buildings in Yong'an City, the Lord's Mansion is extremely luxurious, with red doors and carved beams and painted buildings. As soon as we arrived at the gate, a group of maids and servants came out and stood on both sides. The old man in his fifties or sixties in the middle came to the carriage with a rosy face to greet us. In order to create an atmosphere, I don't know where to get a team of artists to play music. What the Lord of the City could never have imagined is that the little princess now gets hairy all over when she hears music, not to mention the little princess, even the old eunuch feels uncomfortable all over.
The little princess got off the car and started a bunch of red tape to flatter each other, especially Feng Boyuan, who was very attentive and wanted to take care of the little princess personally, which made the five Death Scorpions look down on him.
Originally, City Lord Feng planned to let the five Death Scorpions live in the servants' room and let his guards protect the little princess. How could the old eunuch and the little princess agree? Those guards looked like a bunch of fools in bright armor, so they rejected the proposal without hesitation and insisted on the protection of the five Death Scorpions. The number of Death Scorpions naturally didn't matter. Anyway, the agreement stated that it would be over only after they were sent to the imperial city. Now they had not reached the imperial city, so they had to be protected.
The little princess was not feeling well, so she declined all the banquets and stayed in the room to rest. The old eunuch Liu Yuan and several maids took care of her personally. The four Death Scorpions sat in front of the stone seat in the yard as usual, motionless. Wang Er, however, was like Granny Liu who was so happy that she couldn't find her way in the Grand View Garden. He sighed at the vase and shook his head at the exquisite carvings on the eaves, which made the four guys confused.
"Wang Er, do you have any idea about these exquisite ornaments?"
"Ah~ What a waste, look at this bottle, it would be great to pickle pickles, and those exquisite carvings, a good piece of wood has become like this, it would be great to build bridges and houses for the people, what a waste~" Wang Er shook his head and walked into the room, the four Death Scorpions were sitting on the stone bench and were stunned, is this still the same chubby Wang Er? This consciousness is not lower than those Internet celebrities who talk nonsense all day long but do nothing practical!
There were three people sitting in a luxurious living room in the City Lord's Mansion, one was the City Lord, the young one was Feng Boyuan, and the third was a handsome man who looked a bit like Feng Boyuan, although he was old, he still couldn't resist that special charm.
"Xiaoyuan, are you sure you can win the heart of the little princess?" asked City Lord Feng.
"Not yet. She caught a cold and was either staying in the carriage or lying in bed. It was hard for me to find an excuse to take care of her."
City Lord Feng stroked his beard and looked at the middle-aged handsome man, his eyes full of love. Feng Boyuan didn't care about their expressions. He had gotten used to it over the years.
"The little princess was born to the eldest prince's mother. The relationship between the brother and sister is extraordinary. If Xiaoyuan marries the little princess, then he will be successful in the near future. The little princess can't live in our Yong'an City for too long. The opportunity cannot be missed. If the two can't fall in love, then the rice has to be cooked. To achieve the goal, you must use extraordinary means. If you want to enter the core of power, you must use extraordinary means, otherwise you can only stay in this Yong'an City forever." The middle-aged handsome man said with a smile.
City Lord Feng and Feng Boyuan nodded and understood. Feng Boyuan was even more eager. That was a princess of a golden branch and jade leaf. Although she was not very old, she would definitely be a beauty in the future. Just thinking about it made him restless. It was the right thing to do to capture her as soon as possible.
"There is no time to lose. Let's take action tonight. I will lead away that old eunuch Liu Yuan. The maids and guards are all our people." Although City Lord Feng has a special taste, he is also good at conspiracy.
"When I went to greet them today, the five guards were rude to me. Later, I investigated and found that the five of them were probably the masters who killed the assassins of the Tiansha organization at the post station. It was reported that the five people did not suffer any external injuries that day. Tiansha sent eight high-level assassins but still failed. Among the five people, only one named Wang Er seemed to have no ability. The most mysterious one was the four strong men."
The middle-aged handsome man and City Lord Feng naturally knew who Feng Boyuan was talking about. Today, City Lord Feng also saw the four people at the door. They gave people a cold and ruthless feeling, as if the people standing there were not human beings...
