C3 Transactions

Five days later, in Peng City.

Feng Jing Yi rushed here without stopping, but at this moment, Peng City was already in chaos. Killing and looting were everywhere in the city, but the leader was actually guarding the army.

He had thought that Peng Cheng would be able to hold on for a few more days and allow Feng Jing to safely leave the Southern Tang and also make some preparations for Prime Minister Shangguan in Jinling, but he hadn't thought that things would turn out like this here.

Thus, she immediately grabbed a soldier who had stolen the shop beside her and asked sternly, "Where is General Cheng Tong?"

"Who are you?" The person shook her off and snorted.

"Where is Cheng Tong?" Feng Jing Yi asked with a deep tone.

"It's good that you want to see our General Cheng." The man said, whistling, "Come on, tie him up."

With that, dozens of soldiers surrounded him.

She only wanted to see the general to discuss the matters of defending the city, so she didn't take action. Instead, they tied her up and escorted her to the barracks, but when she didn't see Cheng Tong, she was locked up.

"Who gave you the right to send him away, call Cheng Tong to see me!" Feng Jing Yi shouted angrily.

That person smiled lewdly as he looked at the veil covering her face, stretching his hand out, "This is still covering her face. She must be a virgin that hasn't even bloomed yet."

"How dare you!" Feng Jing Yi took a step back and shouted.

"Then we'll show you." "I didn't expect you to be so beautiful, but if you want to see our General Cheng, you can only probably see him in bed."

As he spoke, the escorts raised their heads and laughed arrogantly.

"Is that so?" "If your hand approaches me again, I guarantee that I will break it piece by piece. If Cheng Tong doesn't appear in front of me within two hours, I can't guarantee that his head won't be above his head tomorrow."

"With just you?" That person snorted disdainfully. He turned around and walked out of the cell as he snorted, "Don't worry. It's rare for a beauty like you to appear in Peng City. I will definitely send you to bed to meet General Cheng."

"You …" Feng Jingyi was so angry that she clenched her teeth.

"The general has ordered the guards to keep an eye on this place." The man swaggered off to the guard.

Feng Jingyi frowned as she watched the group of people leave. She had seen soldiers in the Shangguan Family Army and they were always strict with their discipline. Even though Cheng Tong did not control them well, she didn't expect them to be this rampant.

Peng Cheng could no longer rely on them. She had to find another way to make Peng Cheng last a few more days, so as to buy time for Feng Jing to leave the Southern Tang Dynasty.

"There's no need to look. Even if you see through them, they wouldn't let you out."

Hearing that, Feng Jingyi turned around and found that other than her, there were three other men in the cell. The one who spoke was a man in a blue robe, he had a straight face and a clear outline.

The other man next to him looked at her but didn't say anything.

Behind the two men sat a handsome man in a black cloak. He had sharp eyebrows and was resting with his eyes closed. Although he was imprisoned in a dilapidated room, he looked like a noble young master in a luxurious room.

"Why are you two here?" Feng Jing Yi walked up two steps and asked.

"We've been robbed and locked up here. Cheng Tong wants my master to write a letter home and have someone bring the ransom back. The person who will deliver the ransom in the next two days should be here." the first one said.

Feng Jing Yi frowned when he heard this, and the anger between his brows increased. It seemed like Cheng Tong would have to be dealt with before Peng City could stabilize itself. However, she came alone and could not act rashly.

"Since you're business people, how about I start a business with you guys?"

The black-clothed man who had been resting with his eyes closed all this time suddenly opened them. His clear and cold eyes swept past her and he asked, "Do you have the capital to talk business with us now that you're like this?"

The short knife in Feng Jingyi's sleeve cut the rope, stepped forward, and said, "If you help me catch Cheng Tong, then return all the money and possessions you lost, and compensate you twice the amount to make up for your imprisonment for the next few days?"

"This …" The blue-clothed man looked at his master behind him, as if waiting for his decision.

"With just you?" The black clad young master laughed coldly.

"I will." Feng Jing Yi said with a cold expression.

The troops of Grand Xia could attack the city at any time, so she didn't have time to waste here. She had to go out as soon as possible to stabilize the interior of Peng City and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

The black-clothed young master gazed at her for a long time, his thin lips curling up. "Deal."
