After our homes were confiscated and we were exiled, the women in my clan and I raised a million sol

Compared to the anxious Liang Xiujie, Huang Silang, who had just finished breakfast, was lying comfortably on a lounge chair in the courtyard, enjoying the sunshine.

Just then, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence, and Huang Xu ran in from outside with an anxious look on his face.

"Father, something terrible has happened!"

Huang Xu said breathlessly.

Huang Silang slowly opened his eyes, without a trace of panic in his eyes.

"Didn't I teach you? Don't be anxious when encountering any problems! If you are like this, how can I trust you to hand over the family to you in the future?"

Then he said calmly: "Tell me, is there something wrong with the people we sent?"

Huang Xu nodded, and then began to describe in detail the battle between Zhang Liang and his men last night.

As Huang Xu finished speaking, Huang Silang's expression gradually became serious.

After hearing the whole story, he immediately sat up from the recliner and looked at Huang Xu with a sharp gaze: "Is this true?"

Huang Xu nodded firmly: "Father, it's true."

"Originally, our people were ready to go help the Liang family, but when they realized something was wrong, they immediately hid. Otherwise, they might not have been able to come back."

After listening to his son Huang Xu's words, Huang Silang nodded slowly, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

"They were right not to do anything."

He said in a deep voice, "This guy is definitely not simple. He is very likely the offspring of one of the big shots in the capital. If we act rashly, it will only cause us unnecessary trouble."

Huang Xu frowned when he heard his father's words, obviously feeling a little worried about the situation.

"Father, what should we do now? If the incident with Huang Ergou gets out..."

There was a hint of anxiety in his voice.

Huang Silang snorted coldly, his tone full of dissatisfaction and blame.

"I told you not to do this kind of thing!"

He said sternly, "You refused to listen, and now you've made things worse! You must think twice before doing anything, and don't just act on impulse."

Huang Xu heard his father's scolding and showed an aggrieved expression on his face. "I just want to help you, father!"

He argued, "After all, Song Wen is such a despicable guy. I deliberately arranged these people to ruin his reputation!"

At this moment, a knock on the door interrupted their conversation, followed by the anxious voice of the housekeeper: "Master, someone from the Liang family just came to the door and said that there is an urgent matter that needs your personal attention."

Hearing this, Huang Silang frowned slightly, but quickly regained his composure.

He turned to look at his son Huang Xu and said, "Don't run around these few days!"

Huang Xu immediately understood what his father meant and nodded several times quickly to show his understanding.

Huang Silang felt a little relieved when he saw his son's sensible response.

Then he shouted to the outside: "I know, you go and prepare the carriage first."

After saying this, he looked at Huang Xu deeply again, then turned and left the study.

After Huang Silang left, the door of the study slowly closed, and Huang Xu's face turned gloomy in an instant, and his tightly pursed lips revealed uncontrollable anger.

"damn it!"

He growled, his voice filled with resentment and anger.

"How could that kid be the offspring of a big shot? If that's the case, how can I take revenge?"

Huang Xu looked down at his right hand. The finger that was injured in the previous conflict still ached slightly.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always been the domineering figure in this place that no one dares to mess with. No one has ever dared to challenge his authority so blatantly, let alone hurt him.

Thinking of this, a trace of resentment flashed in Huang Xu's eyes, which was a desire for revenge after being deeply hurt.

He must avenge this!

Huang Xu clenched his fists so tightly that his nails almost dug into his palms, but he didn't feel any pain at all.

He knew that from this moment on, he could no longer act recklessly as before, but had to look for opportunities more cautiously and intelligently.

After all, the other party's identity is very important, and any rash action may bring unpredictable consequences to oneself.

Just as Huang Xu was thinking about his revenge plan, a burst of hurried footsteps approaching from afar interrupted his thoughts.

He looked up and saw the door of the study being gently pushed open, and Huang Silang's figure appeared at the door.

Seeing his father coming back, Huang Xu quickly stood up and walked quickly to Huang Silang, his eyes full of confusion: "Father, didn't you go to the Liang family to discuss matters? Why are you back so soon?"

Huang Silang's face was filled with a relaxed smile. He laughed a few times and then said, "I will come back naturally after I finish talking about things. This time it's good news!"

Hearing this, Huang Xu couldn't help but frown, and his doubts grew even more intense.

What kind of news could make his usually serious father so happy? He couldn't help but ask, "Father, what good news is it that makes you so happy?"

Huang Silang looked at his son's curious and eager eyes, and his smile deepened.

Huang Silang smiled and said, with a sly look in his eyes: "I know the identity of that boy."

Hearing this, Huang Xu immediately perked up, and then asked anxiously: "Father, how is it? Is that kid from the capital?"

Huang Silang shook his head, a meaningful smile curling up his lips. "This guy isn't from the capital. He's the wanted criminal Zhang Liang! The imperial court is searching for him right now!"

"the wanted?"

Huang Silang continued, "That's right. The Liang family just called me over to tell us about this. Also, I heard that old guy Song Wen might be related to him!"

Hearing Huang Silang's words, Huang Xu smiled.

"Doesn't that mean that even if we tell the truth about our crime, no one will believe it? After all, who would believe the words of a wanted criminal?"

There was a hint of smugness and cruelty in his voice.

Huang Silang stroked his beard and nodded slightly, his eyes showing his approval of his son's words.

Thinking of this, Huang Xu looked straight at Huang Silang.

"Father, I want to catch up and kill this guy!"

Huang Silang was stunned when he heard his words.

Huang Xu continued, "As long as we can get rid of Zhang Liang, I will have solved a major problem for His Majesty. Then, our Huang family will be able to regain its glory!"

Hearing his words, Huang Silang pondered for a moment, weighing the pros and cons before finally nodding: "Alright! I'll do as you say! But you must be careful. Zhang Liang is no ordinary man!"

"Don't worry, father. I understand this!"

Damn you, pariah! This time, I must use your death to revive the Huang family!

A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Huang Xu's eyes.

Since they chose to take small paths along the way, Zhang Liang guessed that there must be many people looking for them on these paths.

Therefore, he decided to change his route and lead everyone onto the official path.

Just as Zhang Liang expected, they did not encounter any inspections on the official road, which made them feel relieved.

After traveling for a long time, Zhang Liang and others were exhausted.

So they found a big tree and stopped to rest.

Zhong Shu picked up the water bag, took a sip of water, and then turned her gaze to Zhang Liang.

"Uncle, how far are we from the Southern Barbarian Land now?"

Zhang Liang looked up and ahead, his gaze penetrating the vast sea of ​​forest, as if he could see the distant destination.

He replied in a deep voice: "Ninggu City is ahead. Once we enter there, we will have stepped into the land of the Southern Barbarians."

Zhong Shu nodded when she heard that.

However, at this moment, the sound of hurried horse hooves broke this brief silence.

Hearing the sound of horse hooves, Zhang Liang and Zhong Tian immediately became alert, and a solemn look appeared on their faces.

They had been ambushed several times on the road and knew that the sudden sound might mean danger.

"Sisters-in-law, and Sister Xueqing! Hurry back to the carriage!"

Zhang Liang turned around quickly and gave instructions to Qin Youlan and the others.

Qin Youlan and the others realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately hid in the carriage without hesitation.

Zhang Liang took a deep breath, drew the knife from his waist, and prepared for battle.

Zhong Tian and his son and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry followed closely behind, ready for battle.
