Nanyu Palace.

"Your Highness, the spies we sent out have reported that Lord Zhenguo Ye Feng has led tens of thousands of troops out of Xiaohe County, and they are heading towards Huainan County."

Zhao Pengju was sitting in the yard. A subordinate quickly came up to him, bowed slightly and reported to him.

Zhao Pengju has been feeling uneasy for so many days.

He didn't know what kind of medicine Ye Feng was selling. He thought that Ye Feng would set off immediately after killing the three Wu brothers, but he didn't expect that the other party had stayed in Xiaohe County for more than 20 days.

You must know that all the forces of the entire Song Dynasty have already sent out many people, and they must keep track of Ye Feng's movements throughout the world at all times.

"That old man Zhao Pan is too old and has long lost his ambition. I'm afraid he will directly hand over Huainan County to Ye Feng."

Zhao Pengju narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew Huainan King Zhao Pan very well. He had arranged people to persuade him before, hoping to win over Zhao Pan to rebel together.

But he didn't know that this old man Zhao Pan didn't know what was good for him. He directly kicked out the people he arranged to go to Huainan County without giving them any face at all.

"Continue to send people to keep an eye on Ye Feng's movements. If there is any situation, report it immediately." Zhao Pengju ordered his subordinates.

"As ordered, I will resign!"

The subordinate who reported the news bowed and left the yard.

Zhao Pengju also stood up from his chair. He raised his head and looked in the direction of Xiaohe County. He said coldly, "I hope you won't disappoint me. If you dare to come to inspect Nanyu County, don't blame me for being rude."

……

Ye Feng rode his warhorse all the way along the Qingyuan Mountains and arrived at the foot of the mountain in a mighty manner.

Looking along the direction, the entire southern part of the Song Dynasty was flat.

There was a gleam in the depths of his eyes. He had long heard that the richest place in the Song Dynasty was the entire south. The vast plains before him were extremely suitable for farming. How could it not be rich?

Just as the soldiers walked a short distance away, they saw a soldier quickly approaching Ye Feng and said, "Your Majesty, there is a man in front who claims to be a confidant of the King of Huainan, and he has come to invite you to go to Huainan City."

"Bring him here."

Ye Feng was just about to go on an inspection tour of Huainan County, but he didn't expect the other party to be so proactive and actually sent his subordinates to invite him. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person, so he naturally had to give the King of Huainan some face.

Soon, a middle-aged man appeared. He came to Ye Feng, dismounted, and knelt on the ground. "Your Excellency, I am the steward of the Huainan Palace. I am here on the orders of the prince to invite you to visit Huainan County. My prince is also in the Huainan Palace, waiting for your visit."

"Your prince is really thoughtful." Ye Feng looked at the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground and smiled slightly, "Since the King of Huainan has invited me so kindly, I can't refuse. You can lead the way. We can take a good look at the entire Huainan County along the way."

"As ordered!"

The middle-aged man turned over, rode his warhorse, and trotted to the front of the team. He actually led the way in front of the team and walked towards Huainan County.

The huge team arrived at the area of ​​Huainan County.

Many people looked at Ye Feng's team.

"I have long heard that the Lord of the State of Zhenguo was inspecting the Song Dynasty on behalf of His Majesty. I didn't expect that he would come to our Huainan County so soon."

"What do you know? I heard that this state-guarding monarch set out all the way from Jinling City, killing people wherever he went. I don't know how many corrupt officials he killed."

"It is said that even the Xun family, which had been entrenched in the Great Song Dynasty for nearly two hundred years, was destroyed by our king. The ancestor of the Xun family, who was known as the strongest man in the Great Song Dynasty, has disappeared."

"But I guess when this state-guarding monarch came to our Huainan County, there wouldn't be so many corrupt officials being beheaded. Huainan King Zhao Pan treated the people very well and didn't bully the weak. It is said that he even took the initiative to send people to welcome the state-guarding monarch!"

……

Ye Feng passed through several counties one after another, killing many people there. His reputation spread throughout the Song Dynasty. Everyone knew that he was merciless to corrupt officials and would confiscate their properties and exterminate their families.

"Your Excellency, the King of Huainan has a very good reputation in Huainan County, and many people praise him highly." After Wang Changhao arrived in Huainan County, he quietly went among the people to inquire about the situation of King Huainan Zhao Pan. Almost most people were very satisfied.

"Also, I have checked the rice jars of many people's homes. It seems that the people of Huainan County are relatively wealthy. The rice jars in their homes can last for a year or two, so there is no big problem."

Wang Changhao reported to Ye Feng that it was indeed the richest southern region in the entire Song Dynasty. Unlike the counties he had visited before, it was a luxury for the people to have enough food and clothing.

"It seems that the rumor that the south is the richest is indeed true!"

Ye Feng did not doubt Wang Changhao's investigation. From the way the people were dressed and their expressions along the way, he could tell that the people of Huainan County lived a good life.

……

Huainan City, Royal Palace.

Zhao Tuan's face was filled with cold murderous intent. Four generals, including Yang Ting and Song Qiao, were sitting on his left and right sides, each with a unfriendly look on their face.

"Four generals, at noon tomorrow, the Lord of the State will lead his army to Huainan City. By that time, I will try to keep most of the Lord of the State Ye Feng's army outside the city."

"As long as the King of Zhenguo comes to the palace for a banquet, it will be the best time for us to take action. Our goal is to kill Ye Feng. We can only succeed and not fail. Place your troops throughout the entire Huainan City."

"As long as I give the order, everyone will go out. Even if that state guardian has three heads and six arms, I will kill him in Huainan City."

Zhao Tuan conveyed the order to Yang Ting and other four people. The four of them controlled nearly 40,000 troops. By then, Ye Feng would not be able to escape even if he had wings.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. If Ye Feng dares to step into Huainan City, he will surely die."

Yang Ting said with a solemn vow.

"Well! Let's get ready!"

Zhao Tuan waved at the four people.

As the four turned around and headed outside, several dark figures in night clothes quickly appeared in front of Zhao Tuan. They bowed and saluted, saying, "Greetings, Master!"

These black shadows are all masters and strong men that Zhao Tuan has secretly gathered in Huainan County over the years.

"Pass on my order. Take action tomorrow night and kill Ye Feng at all costs."

Zhao Tuan gave orders to several black shadows.

"My lord, it is heard that the king who guards the country has a great master by his side. We may find it difficult to deal with him when the time comes." A man in black said to Zhao Tuan.

“So what if he’s a great master? Two fists can’t beat four hands. When the time comes, find a way to hold him back. I will personally kill Ye Feng. As long as Ye Feng is killed, the enemy will collapse on their own.”

Zhao Tuan thought very clearly that even he was not sure he could kill a powerful grandmaster.

However, he also knew that to catch a thief, he had to catch the leader.

As long as he could hold back the strong men following Ye Feng, with his peak sixth-grade junior grandmaster cultivation, it would not be difficult for him to kill Ye Feng, who had no cultivation at all, as quickly as possible. As long as Ye Feng was killed, everything would be solved.

Thinking of this, a deep smile appeared on his face. By that time, the tens of thousands of troops led by Ye Feng would also become his Zhao Tuan's army, and his overall strength would be greatly enhanced.
