Feng Zhaoyun walked towards the center of the cave and looked at the surroundings. "Give orders. Don't let even a fly out. Have the people outside guard it well."

Jiuyi clasped his fists and said, "Yes!"

After a while, the personal guards subdued all the remaining bandits who surrendered. At this time, all the bandits were tied up and knelt below, and Feng Zhaoyun walked towards the position of Tiger Lord above.

Deputy General Xue brought his men to bring out the tied-up court ladies. Seeing that they were wearing black clothes and covered in blood, the court ladies huddled together in fear.

When they walked in front of Feng Zhaoyun, they thought he was the bandit leader and knelt down in fear.

Feng Zhaoyun chuckled. Isn't this the era of female supremacy? These women from official families are so cowardly and timid, not at all like noble ladies from official families. Jiuyi stepped forward and said, "Don't you bow!"

The court ladies were so frightened that they screamed and huddled together.

Feng Zhaoyun waved his hand. "Never mind. Have all the bandits been apprehended?"

Xiao Siying led a group of soldiers over, knelt down, saluted, and clasped his fists. "Your Highness! I'm incompetent, and one of them escaped! This man was very cunning, and we've lost him. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

Jiuyi looked at the people in the cave carefully and turned around. "Master, the bandit leader Lao San, Niu Ye has escaped. This person is extremely treacherous and cunning. I was ambushed by her before."

Feng Zhaoyun nodded calmly and looked at Xiao Siying and the others. "Since she's escaped, there's nothing left to hide. Send a signal! Have the rest of the team come to pick her up and bring these people back to Wei City."

The three of them took the order and said, "Yes!"

Deputy General Xue stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, the second and third brothers are here, where is the bandit leader?"

Feng Zhaoyun glanced at Tiger Lord and said, "This man must be no ordinary person. These are just small fry. If we let the third brother escape today, it will definitely alert him. It will be difficult to catch him later."

Lord Tiger was kneeling on the ground at this time. Hearing Feng Zhaoyun's words, he spat out a mouthful of blood and laughed contemptuously, "You bastards, you still want to capture our master? Hahaha, how funny."

Feng Zhaoyun covered his mouth and chuckled, "Oh? Master? Interesting."

Tiger Lord immediately shut up. Xiao Siying stepped forward with a sword in hand, a mocking look on his face. "What an idiot! Haha, you've lost both eyes, yet you're still so arrogant! Believe it or not, I'll dig out your other eye too."

Lord Tiger turned his head to the side.

At this point, the bound ladies had heard clearly, and knowing that this was His Highness, they hurried forward and knelt, "Greetings, Your Highness, Greetings, Your Highness."

Feng Zhaoyun stood up and walked towards the cave entrance, "Send them back and lock them all up."

After saying that, he walked out of the cave with Jiuyi. At this time, the rest of the people and horses had arrived here. The personal soldiers led Baiyun over, and Feng Zhaoyun jumped on the horse and left.

The noise of the army leaving the city had already alarmed the Duke. He brought his men to the cave entrance and met Feng Zhaoyun head-on.

The Duke saluted and asked, "Your Highness, what happened?"

Feng Zhaoyun nodded and said, "The bandits' lair has been found. I will return to the city first." After that, he rode away.

Duke Feng was startled, then led his troops to pay their respects and send them off. He then quickly led his men towards the signal point.

When they arrived at Weicheng, the noise was so loud that signals were sent from the mountains, and the King of War's personal soldiers and the Duke's soldiers were also leaving the city. All the officials had already been awakened and were now gathered in Bai Mansion.

Seeing Feng Zhaoyun coming back from outside the mansion, everyone was startled, and then stepped forward to greet him. Feng Zhaoyun dismounted and looked at everyone, "Disperse, we can talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."

Everyone looked at each other, not daring to step forward to ask. Governor Yang stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness...what happened?"

Feng Zhaoyun did not stop, but walked straight into the mansion and headed towards his own yard.

Jiuyi turned and looked at the officials, "My Lords, please return to your respective offices. We will know what will happen tomorrow."

Everyone saluted, "Yes! Yes..."

Prefect Zhou stepped forward and said, "Sir Yang, His Highness and the people around him are all dressed in black, and the people around His Highness are covered in blood. What is going on?"

Governor Yang shook his head, "Don't talk about His Highness, go back to the palace first."

Prefect Zhou said, "I heard that the Duke has received the signal and left the city. Why don't we go to your house and wait for the Duke?"

Governor Yang nodded, and everyone headed towards Governor Yang's residence.

Feng Zhaoyun entered her yard, Bai Xielin was waiting at the door, and Bai Lingzhi followed behind her, looking at Feng Zhaoyun with admiration.

Jiuyi followed Feng Zhaoyun and rolled his eyes when he saw Bai Lingzhi's expression. How stupid!

Feng Zhaoyun was about to enter the courtyard when he stopped and looked at Bai Xielin, "Mr. Bai, what's the matter?"

Bai Xielin shuddered, "I dare not, Your Highness. I thought you were drinking in there all night, so I came to check."

Feng Zhaoyun smiled, "Oh? Did you see it?"

Bai Xielin knelt on the ground, and Bai Lingzhi followed suit, "I dare not, Your Highness, I dare not."

Feng Zhaoyun walked in without saying a word.

Feng Zhaoyun sat at the stone table. The three secret guards who stayed in the Bai Mansion knelt on the ground. "Is there any movement in the Bai Mansion?"

The secret guard knelt down and said, "My lord, there is nothing."

Feng Zhaoyun nodded, "Step back."

Jiuyi stepped forward and asked, "Your Highness, are you suspicious of the Bai Mansion?"

Feng Zhaoyun said, "The Bai family was able to remain unscathed in this place full of bandits. They must be connected to them. Perhaps we can find out some information about the bandit leader."

Jiu nodded and said, "I will send someone to keep an eye on them immediately."

Feng Zhaoyun smiled and said, "No need, just keep an eye on the Patriarch of the Bai family."

Jiuyi accepted the order, "Yes! My Lord." He turned and walked out of the yard.
