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

Huang Xu noticed a subtle flash of anger across Zhang Liang's face, and his heart suddenly tightened, as if a huge rock suddenly pressed on his chest.

He asked cautiously, "Master Zhang, what's wrong with you? Did I do something wrong?"

Zhang Liang just glanced at him coldly, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then threw the letter in his hand fiercely at Huang Xu's face.

With this action, a sense of oppression seemed to permeate the air.

"It seems that Mr. Huang is quite thoughtful!"

Zhang Liang slowly stood up and looked at the other person with a sharp gaze.

"Do you really think I can't understand what's in this letter? If I send it out as you say, I'm afraid the imperial army will soon come and attack us."

Upon hearing this, Huang Xu's face turned pale instantly and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. It was obvious that he had realized that his little thoughts had been completely seen through.

“No, that’s not the case…”

Huang Xu tried to defend himself, but his voice was very weak.

Zhang Liang waved his hand impatiently and instructed Zeng Guodong standing beside him, "It seems that our young master Huang's memory is not very good. Take him away and give him a good 'teaching' so that he can remember better."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zeng Guodong stepped forward without hesitation, grabbed Huang Xu's shoulders, and pulled him out like a dead dog.

"Please give me another chance! I really don't dare anymore!"

Huang Xu screamed in terror and struggled to break free from his restraints, but his resistance seemed futile.

However, Zhang Liang didn't even raise his eyelids in response to his pleading, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

A gleam of light flashed in Liu Yu's eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.

He walked up to Zhang Liang and said to him, "Master, don't be angry. Come and have a cup of tea."

Hearing Liu Yu's words, Zhang Liang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

He nodded and slowly sat down next to Liu Yu.

Seeing this, Liu Hu immediately picked up the teacup and respectfully poured a cup of tea for Zhang Liang and Liu Yu respectively.

After taking a sip of tea, Liu Yu looked at Zhang Liang with a smile, as if he could see through his thoughts, and said softly: "Master, after we deal with this kid, then it will be time to deal with those officials in Ning Gucheng!"

Zhang Liang sneered after hearing this. He took a sip from the teacup in front of him and said firmly, "Of course. After all, if these beasts continue to stay here, it will only be a waste of food."

When Zhang Liang thought about the refugees inside and outside Ninggu City, he wanted to send these officials to deal with it immediately.

His heart was filled with indignation and dissatisfaction towards those officials who oppressed the people and committed many evil deeds.

But at the same time, he also wanted to use these people to win back the hearts of the people of Ninggu City.

After Zhang Liang and Liu Yu drank some tea, Zeng Guodong appeared in front of them again with Huang Xu.

He said respectfully to Zhang Liang, "My Lord, I have just taught Young Master Huang a lesson. I think he won't have any more thoughts now."

Hearing this, Zhang Liang turned his head and looked at Huang Xu with a playful smile on his face.

He asked with a smile: "Mr. Huang, is that so?"

Huang Xu was frightened by Zhang Liang's gaze and trembled all over. He nodded quickly and responded, "Yes, Master Zhang, please forgive me again! I will definitely not do anything tricky this time!"

Zhang Liang looked at his terrified expression and sneered in his heart.

He knew that Huang Xu was completely frightened, but he also knew that he couldn't take it lightly.

So, he nodded, then pushed the paper and pen in front of Huang Xu and said lightly: "In this case, please write another letter!"

Huang Xu picked up the pen tremblingly and wrote a letter quickly and carefully.

After finishing, he carefully handed the letter to Zhang Liang, a hint of nervousness in his voice: "Master Zhang, please take a look to see if there are any problems. If there are any, I will correct them immediately."

Zhang Liang took the letter and read it carefully.

After reading the letter, Zhang Liang looked up at Huang Xu, a flicker of approval in his eyes. He smiled and said, "Very good, this letter is well written. I hope you can remember your promise and don't let me down again."

When Huang Xu heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been pardoned.

He quickly nodded and agreed, "Of course, of course. Mr. Zhang, please rest assured. I will definitely remember your teachings."

After confirming that the letter was correct, Zhang Liang nodded with satisfaction and handed the letter to Zeng Guodong.

He said calmly, "Send this letter to the Huang family, so that Mr. Huang's family won't worry about him."

Zeng Guodong took the letter and replied seriously: "My lord, please rest assured. I will definitely send a smart person to deliver this letter to the Huang family."

Then Zhang Liang said, "Let's take Young Master Huang away now."

After hearing Zhang Liang's words, Zeng Guodong nodded and prepared to take Huang Xu away.

However, he suddenly thought that he would still need Huang Xu in the future. If he continued to lock him up with those people, he might be beaten to death.

So, he immediately said to Zeng Guodong: "Wait, keep this guy separate from those people. I don't want him to die by then."

Hearing this, Huang Xu burst into tears with excitement.

Because this meant that he would not be beaten by those people anymore, and he suddenly felt a sense of gratitude towards Zhang Liang.

However, this gratitude soon disappeared without a trace, replaced by more resentment.

After Zeng Guodong took Huang Xu away, Qin Hao turned his gaze to Liu Yu standing beside him.

"Mr. Liu, please build a platform for me in the city tomorrow. It will be useful to me."

When Liu Yu heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Then, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, and he nodded and said, "No problem, Master."

After saying this, Liu Yu turned his head and looked at Liu Hu behind him, with a bit of severity and expectation in his eyes.

"Did you hear what the young master said, you little brat? Hurry up and do it. If you mess it up, I'll teach you a lesson!"

Hearing his father's scolding, Liu Yu's son nodded quickly, with a nervous and serious expression on his face.

"I'll do it right now."

After he said this, he immediately turned around and left to prepare to build the platform.

At this moment, the air in the dark room seemed to freeze, and everyone's eyes flickered in the dim sunlight, their hearts filled with anxiety and uneasiness.

They stared at the closed door, hoping that Huang Xu, who was taken away by Zeng Guodong, would return, because then they would know what the attitude of Zhang Liang and others was now.

But time passed by minute by minute, and there was still no sign of him.

Finally, someone broke the silence and whispered, "What do you think? Huang Xu hasn't come back in such a long time. Has he been dealt with by those people?"

There was a slight tremor in his voice, and it was obvious that he was extremely uneasy.

The other man shook his head upon hearing this and tried to offer a more "reasonable" explanation: "I'm not sure about that, but even if he wasn't taken care of, it's very likely that he was beaten up."

"After all, if this happened to me, that person would have died countless times already."

Although this person's words seemed a little helpless, they revealed a clear understanding of reality.

Then, another person sighed deeply and said, "I wonder how long that guy plans to keep us locked up? Will he do anything to us?"

This question was like a bombshell, instantly detonating panic and anxiety in everyone's hearts.

However, at this moment, Li Zhong's voice rang out in the room.

"They definitely wouldn't dare to attack us. We are officials appointed by the imperial court. If they did, they would be traitors! Unless these people want to die, they won't do that."

This sentence was like a shot of adrenaline, which slightly alleviated everyone's worries.

They began to believe that perhaps they would not suffer such a bad fate.

Despite this, everyone still had an uneasy expression on their faces.
