C79

Just give us a reason to catch some thieves and send them out. Since the city is under martial law, and the constables are on patrol every night, and the Lu Family is looking for a reason to focus on their defense, those bandits would definitely be wary of us. Even if they dared to attack us, we would be able to face them in broad daylight.

That's right, why didn't he think of that! Ling Zhang's eyes lit up.

As long as he endured through half a month, Zhang Chong would be done for, why would he need to worry about this?

"The most important thing is that we can still let Zhang Chong take this loss for himself." Ling Zhaowen said again.

"Zhang Chong?"

Ling Zhaowen laughed and said: "Have you forgotten the duties of State Guard? We don't have enough constables, State Guard should be more than enough."

"I see." Ling Zhang said excitedly. If something happened in the city, the State Guard should have helped, but Zhang Chong could not refuse, and Zhang Chong could not allow bandits in. Otherwise, how could the State Guard put it that way?

With a plan in place, Ling Zhang was relieved.

After the uncle and nephew finished their discussion, Yuwen Tong came over.

Seeing Yuwen Tong, suddenly thought about how he should explain his previous reaction and his and his Second Uncle's plans. After all, all of the prerequisites for this plan lay in knowing what Zhang Chong wanted to do.

Yuwen Tong was not anxious at all. As soon as he entered, he greeted Ling Zhaowen, "Zhang Chong and my people are watching them closely, if you have any movements, you will immediately know."

"Thank you, Marshal." Ling Zhaowen thanked Yuwen Tong, "Originally, it was our fault, and I have to trouble you. I am truly ashamed."

"Second Uncle Ling does not need to be courteous, Ling Family is a benefactor to my Yuwen Clan, since I am here, I will not let anything happen to Ling Family."

Ling Zhang was vexed over how to explain things to Yuwen Tong, but in the end, Yuwen Tong had no intention to ask him. After chatting for a while with Ling Zhaowen, he got up and prepared to leave.

"Second Uncle, I'll head back too." Seeing that, Ling Zhang hurriedly said.

Ling Zhaowen nodded as he watched Ling Zhang and Yuwen Tong leave this place one after the other, and revealed a profound smile.

After leaving Second Uncle Ling's courtyard, Ling Zhang had been waiting for Yuwen Tong to ask him about this entire journey, but in the end, Yuwen Tong had not spoken a single word.

After returning to the bamboo house, Ling Zhang could not help but ask first, "Do you have anything you wanted to ask me just now?"

"Aren't you just going to say it?"

So Yuwen Tong was intentionally waiting for him to not be able to hold back and say something? Ling Zhang was secretly annoyed himself.

"Just now, I saw that the Second Uncle Ling had a relaxed expression. It seems that you have already thought of a plan, do you need my help?"

Seeing that, a look of regret surfaced in Yuwen Tong's eyes. He knew that he had angered him, and so he stopped teasing Ling Zhang.

After Ling Zhang's vexation, he was no longer as conflicted as before. He knew that he was no match for Yuwen Tong, and no matter what he thought, he would not be able to hide from's eyes.

"Do you remember the people I told you about before? They found out that someone suspected of being a bandit entered the State Guard encampment."

"I remember."

"I was worried that Zhang Chong would directly attack our family using bandits, so I came up with a plan with my Second Uncle."

Ling Zhang said half-truthfully, not knowing if Dao Yuwentong believed him or not, but from his expression, no one could tell what he was thinking.

My second uncle took action. He said that a thief had appeared in the city and needed a curfew. He also sent out patrols to guard the city. In addition to the yamen runners, he also sent people from the Regional Guard to be on guard." "Like this, even if Zhang Chong wanted to do something, he would be temporarily unable to make a move. Moreover, as long as we can endure this period of time and finish off Zhang Chong and the Jia family, the problem will be easily solved.

After Yuwen Tong heard this, he nodded his head, "This strategy is not bad, this also solved a lot of problems. However, this isn't enough. It would be great if we could put on another show. "

"Play a part?" Ling Zhang did not understand.

"It's hard to say what ordinary thieves would do if they wanted a curfew and send out so many people to patrol, Zhang Chong might even be able to tell something. But it's different if he sees blood, a vicious thief would be more persuasive."

The more Ling Zhang listened, the brighter his eyes became. Indeed, this made him more persuasive, and Zhang Chong had no reason to refuse at all.

"But, how can I do it if it's just an act and not a real dead person? "Although I can ask for more people to help, it's hard to avoid rumors spreading when there are more people."

"As long as you set your goal, I'll send someone to do it."

Ling Zhang had a flash of inspiration, "Alright, after I discuss it with Second Uncle, I'll give you my answer."

Yuwen Tong had no objections to this.

Ling Zhang returned to look for Ling Zhaowen and told him of Yuwen Tong's suggestion.

Ling Zhongwen smiled and said, "As expected of the Marshal, his actions are more meticulous. Then, how do you plan on setting a target?"

I can even ask the Yamen to guard inside the Lu Family. Furthermore, there will be people constantly coming to pay their respects during the day, and with so many people coming and going, it would be even more difficult for them to make a move on the Lu Family. "Su Yun said in a low voice.

Ling Zhaowen looked at Ling Zhang with gratitude, "Then let's do as you say. I'll tell Lu Kui's side."

"Second Uncle, be quick, I'm worried that Yuwen Tong will need to make some arrangements, if the time is too tight, they won't be able to prepare."

"Don't worry, I'll head to Lu Family now."

"Then I'll have Wang Dashan bring a few people to guard the courtyard and follow you."

Ling Zhang then went to the Residence of nursing home, and arranged for Wang Dashan to bring his men with him. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief, as this matter was more or less settled.

"Eldest Young Master, are you still going to teach us today?" Qiu Bing ran over and asked.

"Teach." When King's Head and the rest return, I will tell them more about it. "

Inside the bamboo house, the guards saw that Ling Zhang was teaching the guards again, and said to Yuwen Tong: "Marshal, the Ling childe is teaching the guards again."

Yao Yi said to Yuwen Tong when he heard this, "Marshal, Second Master Ling had already left for the Lu Family a while ago. Say, why do you think Ling childe is so sure that Zhang Chong will collude with the bandits and make a move against him? "

"The Ling Family is from the Tan Yang, it's not strange that we don't know some information." Yuwen Tong's expression remained calm, "You can take care of the things I told you, and when Lu Family is ready, we will cooperate with them and act out this show."

"Yes."

When Ling Zhaowen returned after an hour, he told Ling Zhang that they had already discussed this matter with the Lu Family. As long as Yuwen Tong was ready, they would be able to cooperate.

"Great, I'll go and tell Yuwen Tong now."

Ling Zhang hurried back to the bamboo house, and said to Yuwen Tong: "The person you need to cooperate has already been decided, he's from Lu Family."

Yuwen Tong seemed to have not known of this beforehand, as he instructed Yao Yi once more in front of him, and Yao Yi agreed without batting an eyelid.

"We can do it tonight."

"So fast?" "Then I'll have my men hurry …"

"Sit down and rest for a while, Yao Yi, you can go and talk to Second Uncle Ling."

"Yes."

Ling Zhang was worried, he still wanted to go.

"Your Second Uncle and the Uncle Lu you mentioned are both not three-year-old children. They can deal with this kind of thing."

Ling Zhang then gave up, lowering his head to look at the wet clothes on his body, and said embarrassedly: "Then I'll go and change my clothes first."

"Yes."

Ling Zhang returned to his courtyard to change his clothes. Although everything had been arranged, he still felt that he had missed something.

After changing his clothes, he suddenly thought of something he had missed, "Xia Feng, go and call Liu Yi over, tell him I have something important to tell him."

Xia Feng hurried over, and in a moment, Liu Yi came over: "Young Noble, are you looking for your subordinate?"

"Watch closely with King's Head for the next few days. It's very likely that the people we are waiting for will appear."

Liu Yi was secretly shocked, "Young Noble, what news did you get?"

"You can say that, but you have to be more alert. It has been hard on you all these days. If I'm not wrong, those people will definitely appear."

"Yes, this subordinate will definitely keep an eye on King's Head."

If nothing unexpected happened this time, he would know which mountain the bandits that colluded with Zhang Chong came from!

That night.

"Can I go too?" Ling Zhang looked at Yuwen Tong in pleasant surprise.

Yuwen Tong said that he could bring him to the Lu Family to have a look. He had already prepared to stay at home and wait for the news, but was surprised and pleasantly surprised.

"Of course, but you have to change into night clothes."

When it came to night attire, Ling Zhang had changed into a set of dark and gloomy clothes. He didn't have the same completely black clothes like Yao Yi and the others did.

The clothes were relatively close-fitting. Not only did they reveal the waist, but even the skin had become a lot whiter. Under the candlelight, the contrast was so intense that it could burn one's eyes.

"What's wrong? "Is that strange?"

Seeing Yuwen Tong staring at him, Ling Zhang thought that his current attire was very strange.

"These clothes are very good." Yuwen Tong said, his gaze sweeping across Ling Zhang's neck before retracting, "Let's go, it's about time."

The Lu Family was located in the south of the city, which was not too far away from the Ling Family. It was different from the simple composition of the population of the Ling Family.

The one who coordinated with them was Lu Kui himself, the one who originally requested for help from Lady Lu was rejected. After all, the Lady Lu was a woman. There were some things that were inconvenient, and some bad rumors might spread in the future.

"In order to spread the news, only my wife and my father know about this matter. At that time, the family will be in chaos."

"Don't worry Uncle Lu, I, Second Uncle, will quickly rush over and help you stabilize your family."

"Alright," Lu Kui nodded seriously, "Then what do I need to do now?"

"Listen to this guard. Whatever he tells you to do, do."

Ling Zhang called Yao Yi over so he could get to know him.

"County Order, don't worry, I will personally forge a wound for you and you will need some means to disguise yourself. After the incident happens, we will give you a pill to swallow, and this pill will allow you to temporarily enter the state of Turtle Aura, your aura is so weak that it will be hard to detect, and you will be able to escape the detection of others."

Lu Kui had only heard of this method before, he never thought that there would really be a medicine that could cause a person to temporarily enter the Turtle Aura state. "Then, thank you very much, guard Yao."

Yuwen Tong, who had been standing next to Ling Zhang from start to finish, did not speak. Lu Kui only gave him a thoughtful look, and tactfully did not ask him even a single question.
