After a while, Zhong Tian stood up from his seat.

Seeing his actions, Zhong Zheng immediately walked over.

"Father, are we ready to take action?"

Zhong Zheng asked softly, with a hint of uneasiness and curiosity in his tone.

"That's right, let's proceed according to the arrangement I made before."

After hearing his father's words, Zhong Zheng nodded, then quickly left the hall and began to arrange various matters according to his father's instructions.

A few minutes later, the gate of Zhong Tian's residence slowly opened, and several carriages slowly drove out.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Shuangcheng's men immediately became alert.

Someone quickly rushed into the room and reported to Zheng Shuangcheng: "Sir, there is movement!"

When Zheng Shuangcheng heard his subordinates' words, the teacup in his hand tightened instantly, and a few drops of tea splashed out due to the vibration.

He suddenly put down his teacup, stood up, and said excitedly, "It's true! I was worried that I might be wrong, but now I'm sure that Zhong Tian is in cahoots with Zhang Liang."

There was a cunning glint in his eyes, as if he had seen the dawn of victory.

He quickly turned to the subordinate and asked in a hurried tone, "What's going on over at Zhong Tian's residence? Tell me quickly!"

The subordinate sensed Zheng Shuangcheng's urgency and seriousness, and dared not neglect him in the slightest. He nodded and responded quickly, "Yes, sir. The back door of Zhong Tian's residence just opened, and several carriages immediately came out."

Zheng Shuangcheng frowned, then relaxed his brows and sneered, "It seems they are preparing to escape. However, it won't be that easy to escape from my palm!"

He turned and walked to the window, his eyes piercing through the night, as if he wanted to penetrate the tightly closed door of the mansion and see everything inside.

His hands were clenched tightly on the window frame, and his knuckles turned white from the effort.

Zheng Shuangcheng shouted at his subordinate, "Quick! Send our men to follow him! No matter how many carriages he sends, keep close to them!"

Hearing his words, his subordinates did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. They immediately nodded in agreement, then turned around and quickly left the room.

All those people who were originally monitoring Zhong Tian's residence were divided into several groups, stealthily following the carriage that had just come out.

At the same time, Zhang Liang and others who were hiding in the dark also saw this scene.

Yan Sheng, who was standing by, anxiously said to Zhang Liang, "My Lord, what should we do now? Should we go up and finish off these people? Otherwise, if Zhong Tian is caught, we'll be in trouble."

Looking at Yan Sheng's anxious face, Zhang Liang seemed much calmer.

He patted Yan Sheng's shoulder gently and said in a calm tone: "Don't worry, I don't think Zhong Tian is such a stupid person."

"Although Zheng Shuangcheng's movements are very secretive, Zhong Tian should be very familiar with him after fighting him for so many years, so he should be able to guess his little moves."

Zhang Liang's eyes gleamed with wisdom as he continued his analysis: "I guess these carriages are smokescreens to confuse Zheng Shuangcheng."

"Zhong Tian may have anticipated that we would send someone to follow him, so he deliberately created this illusion to make people mistakenly believe that he would be in the carriage."

After hearing Zhang Liang's analysis, Yan Sheng gradually calmed down.

He recalled his nervousness just now and couldn't help feeling a little ashamed. He said, "My lord, you are absolutely right. I almost ruined the whole thing. My lord, you are so thoughtful and insightful."

Zhang Liang smiled slightly and waved his hand to indicate that it was not necessary to worry.

He said: "What we need to do now is to remain calm and continue to observe how the situation develops."

Shortly after the carriages left, the back door of Zhong Tian's residence quietly opened, and several figures poked their heads out stealthily, observing the surrounding environment vigilantly.

After confirming that it was safe outside, they hurried out.

When he saw these people, Zhang Liang raised a smile.

He turned to Yan Sheng beside him and whispered, "Now it's time for us to act."

After saying this, he took the lead and walked towards those people, and the Tiger and Leopard Riders following behind him quickly followed.

At the same time, Zhong Tianzheng came out and whispered to his family, "Hurry up! Go faster! Before that guy Zheng Shuangcheng reacts, let's get out of the city!"

After Zhong Tian finished speaking, Zhang Liang had already walked up to him with a few people.

Looking at Zhang Liang who suddenly appeared, Zhong Tian's face turned pale instantly. He asked nervously, "I didn't expect that we would be discovered again?"

At this moment, Zhong Zheng stood up, straightened his back, and said to Zhong Tian, ​​"Father, let me hold these people back, you take mother and the others and run away!"

However, Zhang Liang smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "Master Zhong, I think you misunderstood!"

"I'm Zhang Liang. After I found out you were being watched, I came here specifically to bring people to rescue you!"

After hearing Zhang Liang's words, Zhong Tian and the others' originally ugly expressions instantly became better.

A hint of surprise and gratitude flashed in Zhong Tian's eyes. He stepped forward, shook Zhang Liang's hand tightly, and said, "So it's you, my lord! How wonderful! I thought..."

Zhang Liang patted the back of Zhong Tian's hand and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, Master Zhong. I'm here to protect you and make sure you leave here safely."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhang Liang and his companions led Zhong Tian and his family towards the city gate.

At the same time, Zheng Shuangcheng's men followed the carriages closely, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

However, as time went on, they gradually discovered something was wrong.

These carriages seemed to have no clear destination at all. They were just wandering around the city aimlessly, as if someone was deliberately taking them for a stroll.

The men began to feel confused and uneasy. They exchanged puzzled glances with each other, not knowing how to continue the tracking.

One of them couldn't help but say, "What the hell is going on? Why are these carriages circling the city? Did we discover something?"

Another person echoed, "Yeah, it seems pointless to continue like this. Shouldn't we go back and report to the Lord and ask him to make new arrangements?"

One of the men heard their discussion, his expression changed, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.

He said decisively, "Stop arguing! I'll report this to the Lord right now. You all continue to follow these carriages!"

After saying that, the soldier no longer hesitated, turned around and ran, rushing towards the direction where Zheng Shuangcheng was.

After a while, the soldier came to the dim room.

He rushed into the room breathlessly, breaking the original silence.

Looking at this panting and anxious subordinate, Zheng Shuangcheng couldn't help but frown.

He put down the teacup in his hand and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

The man took a deep breath, trying to calm his breathing, and then replied anxiously, "Sir, this is bad! The carriages you asked us to follow have been circling the city, seemingly without a destination."

"I was worried there might be some kind of fraud, so I came here immediately to report to you!"

Zheng Shuangcheng's face turned ashen in an instant after hearing those words. He clenched his teeth, and a trace of anger and regret flashed in his eyes.

I couldn't help but curse: "Damn it! I was actually fooled by this old fox! How could I have forgotten this!"

The men standing by were confused when they saw this and had no idea what was going on.

He asked cautiously, "Sir, what do you mean by this?"

Zheng Shuangcheng glared at him furiously and shouted, "Idiot! We've fallen into that Zhong Tian's trap! Now quickly take people to Zhong Tian's house and seal off the city gates!"

Upon hearing this, the subordinate nodded in agreement and was about to turn around and leave when he was stopped by Zheng Shuangcheng.

"and many more."

Zheng Shuangcheng said in a deep voice: "I'd better take my men to the city gate myself! After all, I can't rely on you idiots!"

After saying that, he stood up and left the room, intending to go to the city gate to see if he could catch Zhong Tian and his family.
