C374 Finally It's a Family
Previously, the young man who was useless in their eyes not only possessed heaven-defying strength, but also killed a Sixth Level True Martial warrior with a single strike.
And, he was actually the supreme Lord Kang Ping Hou.
"marquis, your subordinate did not do his job well and did not protect you well. I have put you in a dangerous situation, please punish me."
At this time, the middle-aged man who came with Mayor Qian walked forward and bowed respectfully to Ye Feng. His words were sincere.
"May I ask who you are?"
Ye Feng's eyes fell on the middle-aged man and asked.
He was very curious about the identity of this middle-aged man. He did not know why this man knew so much about his shadow, and why he came to the Lu Family with Mayor Qian to apologize.
"This subordinate is the Chief General of Taizhou Prefecture. I was ordered by His Excellency the Governor to secretly protect marquis to comfort him. However, on the way to Youzhou, I lost sight of marquis. After many inquiries, I found out that you have arrived at the Lu Family and came here immediately. "
The middle-aged man bowed to Ye Feng and said.
"So that's how it is. Governor of Tashkent has troubled you."
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, Ye Feng raised his brows. He never thought that Governor of Tashkent would be so considerate. Although he was protected, Ye Feng didn't like the feeling of being followed.
Therefore, Ye Feng said, "I'm used to being alone. From now on, I won't trouble you to protect me. Regarding this, please inform Governor of Tashkent and tell him not to send any other experts."
"It's marquis!"
Hearing Ye Feng's words, the middle-aged man's eyes slightly narrowed. When he left the governor's mansion, His Excellency the Governor had given him a death order. He had followed marquis throughout the journey, protecting him and comforting him.
But now, since Ye Feng had already spoken, he could only return to the governor's mansion to report after dealing with this matter.
The entire scene was silent. The people of Lu Family and the experts of City Lord's Mansion who participated in the siege on Ye Feng all shut their mouths, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Lu Dong, Lu Wan, and Qian Hong's faces turned pale. They had been so arrogant before, none of them had put Ye Feng in their eyes.
Now, they finally understood that the reason why Ye Feng had been holding himself back was because he disdained to lower himself to the level of a self-righteous nobody like them.
"marquis, this man has offended his superiors and tried to harm marquis. His crime involves nine generations of his family and friends. Your subordinate will arrest them one by one and punish him in the future!"
The General of the Prefecture cupped his fists at Ye Feng and said. Their eyes were sharp as they looked at the people from the Lu family and City Lord's Mansion who had participated in the siege on Ye Feng with cold eyes.
Anyone who dared to have such thoughts of killing a duke, according to the law of Zhao State, would be able to kill nine generations of their family!
Hearing the words of the governor general, the faces of Lu Dong, Lu Wan, and the rest of the people from the Lu Family turned pale. Their bodies couldn't help but tremble. Bean-sized sweat dripped from their foreheads, as if they had smelled a trace of death aura.
Ye Feng did not speak. He just looked at Lu DongLu Wan and the rest. His expression was indifferent and calm. However, in the eyes of the Lu Family and the experts of City Lord's Mansion, such an expression was extremely terrifying.
"Putong, putong, putong..."
Muffled sounds rang out. Patriarch of Lu Family Lu Dong took the lead. The experts from various families knelt in front of Ye Feng and Nangong Yu. Their eyes no longer had the contempt and killing intent from before. Instead, they were filled with fear and regret.
"Lu Wan! What are you still standing there for? Kneel down! If you and Qian Hong hadn't kept urging me, how could I have caused such a huge disaster? We are outrageous to treat marquis like this!"
Seeing Lu Wan still standing there in a daze, Lu Dong couldn't help but scold his eldest daughter.
After hearing Lu Dong's stern words, Lu Wan's delicate body couldn't help but tremble violently. She immediately reacted and kneeled down towards Ye Feng with a 'putong' sound.
"I have eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. I have offended marquis. I hope marquis will forgive me and my family for not recognizing marquis's identity."
Lu Dong said to Ye Feng with a trembling voice. He seemed to be afraid of angering Ye Feng. If that was the case, it would be a serious crime to kill all of his family and friends!
"Are you saying that no one with an extraordinary status would be treated like this by your Lu Family?"
Ye Feng's face carried a hint of ridicule as he looked at Lu Dong and said.
Lu Dong's body trembled violently once again, and his heart was in his throat.
"The fate of your Lu Family is not in my control. I think you are begging the wrong person."
Ye Feng continued. The meaning behind his words wasn't difficult to understand.
Lu Dong suddenly understood after hearing Ye Feng's words. He quickly got up and staggered towards Lu Yao's direction.
"Lu Yao, my good daughter, it's all my father's fault. Father is old and dizzy. He listened to your sister and brother-in-law's slanderous words and almost caused a disaster. Help father beg you, Senior Brother, to let go of my Lu Family. I am willing to betroth you to him."
Lu Dong pleaded to Lu Yao. Now, the only one who could save his Lu Family was his little daughter, Lu Yao.
Lu Yao's beautiful eyes flickered as she looked at her father. A complicated expression appeared on her face. Seeing her father like this, Lu Yao could not bear to see him like this. No matter what kind of mistake her father had done previously, it was still her father.
Lu Yao didn't say anything. She just glanced at Lu Dong and walked towards Nangong Yu.
"Senior Brother, she represents her father to apologize to marquis and Senior Brother. I hope that marquis and Senior Brother can forgive him and the Lu Family on behalf of my father's old age."
Lu Yao looked at Nangong Yu. Her shellfish tooth gently bit her red lips. Her heart was filled with complicated feelings. Her father and the Lu Family had done such a thing to let Ye Feng and Nangong Yu down. Logically speaking, she wouldn't have the face to plead with Ye Feng and Nangong Yu, but she couldn't bear to see her family being destroyed because of this matter.
That was why she pulled down her face and pleaded for mercy.
Lu Yao's delicate body slightly bent down, showing her deep apology.
"Why did Junior Sister say that? Quickly get up!"
Nangong Yu hurriedly helped Lu Yao up and looked at Ye Feng. Before he could say anything, he heard Ye Feng's voice. "Don't worry about me. You will handle the matter of the Lu Family. You have the final say on how to deal with it."
After listening to Ye Feng's words, a grateful expression emerged on Nangong Yu's face. He knew that the reason Ye Feng gave him the authority was to let him establish his prestige in front of the people of the Lu Family.
"On account of the fact that the people of the Lu Family have committed a crime for the first time, I'll forgive all of you this time. I hope all of you can take care of yourselves!"
Nangong Yu said to Lu Dong and the rest of the people from the Lu Family. No matter what, Lu Dong was the father of Junior Sister and Lu Yao. If he was punished, Lu Yao would inevitably feel sad. This was something that Nangong Yu did not want to see. Therefore, Nangong Yu was prepared to give the people from the Lu Family a chance to change themselves.
"Lu Yao thanks marquis and Senior Brother!"
After hearing Nangong Yu's words, Lu Yao's pretty face immediately showed a touch of surprise. She was extremely grateful for Ye Feng and Nangong Yu's magnanimity.
"Quick! Thank marquis and Young Master Nangong!"
Seeing that Nangong Yu had agreed to forgive their Lu Family, Lu Dong immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and quickly ordered the surrounding Lu Family.
The people from the Lu Family all felt as if they had been granted amnesty. They all bowed to Ye Feng and Nangong Yu. They were grateful from the bottom of their hearts. As a duke of a region, being attacked by a group of ignorant people like this was enough to let bygones be bygones. This undoubtedly highlighted Ye Feng's magnanimity. At the same time, everyone in the Lu Family knew. All of this was because of Nangong Yu's existence. If not... Ye Feng would never let them go so easily.
As for those who attacked Ye Feng in City Lord's Mansion, they weren't so lucky. They were all sent to jail, and all of this was handled by Mayor Qian himself. Ye Feng didn't stop them. In the future, he would most likely stay in Tai You Nine Counties for a long period of time. If he did not establish some prestige here, perhaps many people would dare to offend him.
After Ye Feng's powerful attack, Nangong Yu and Lu Yao finally got together as they wished. No one dared to question him anymore. Ye Feng's prestige was still there. From now on, Nangong Yu's position in the hearts of the Lu family would not change. Even Patriarch of Lu Family Lu Dong would have to be respectful to him as his son-in-law from now on.
Due to Nangong Yu and Lu Yao's repairs, the status of the Lu Family in the Qingzhou City would also rise. Even in the City Lord's Mansion, they would have to give the Lu Family some face.
Because the son-in-law of the Lu Family, Nangong Yu, was Kangping's disease's best friend. Not giving Nangong Yu face was equal to not giving Kangping's disease face.
The matter of the Lu Family was settled. Ye Feng didn't stay in the Qingzhou City and returned to Youzhou alone. Nangong Yu stayed in the Lu Family.
Ye Feng had won the first place in the Joust For A Spouse Festival. The entire Zhao State was shocked. The one who lost the most face because of this matter was the Wei Country.
After Wei Zhentian and the others returned to the Wei Country, Emperor of Wei was furious when he found out about the entire process of the Joust For A Spouse Festival. He had fought Wei because it was the central country of the Greencloud Region Seven Nations. What kind of dignity was that? How could Ye Feng, a junior, be offended?
This time, Ye Feng had caused the entire face of the entire Greencloud Region to be tarnished. Emperor of Wei had made up his mind to get rid of Ye Feng. He had given a death order to a certain minister of Wei Country to get rid of Ye Feng.
In order to complete the mission given to him by the king, that official had found the biggest assassin organization in the Greencloud Region, the Blood Evil Alliance, and offered a very high price, just to take Ye Feng's life.
Ye Feng still chose to walk back to the Youzhou. Using two days' time, Ye Feng arrived at a mountain range about one thousand miles away from the Youzhou City.
This mountain range was called "Qiankun Mountain." The scale of the Qiankun Mountain was far inferior to the Emerald Mountain Range, but it was extremely steep. The mountain path was rugged, full of steep cliffs and bottomless natural chasm. When Ye Feng and Nangong Yu came to the Qing Province, they mainly wasted their time on this Qiankun Mountain.
