The system swallowed an eagle before it digested it

The third prince raised his hand with a smile on his face, no need to be polite.

Jiang Tianfeng was flattered, and felt that the third prince was very kind to him, without the slightest air of a prince.

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Jiang Tianfeng stood up respectfully, and followed the third prince into the room. The third prince vaguely guessed something when he came to visit so late.

Before the third prince could say hello, Jiang Tianfeng directly expressed his intention of coming, and even glanced in the direction outside the door.

"Your Highness, I have something important to discuss with you."

The third prince understood, nodded, and said to the guard outside the door: "You all retreat first, without my palace's order, you are not allowed to step into the courtyard."

Seeing the guards leave, Jiang Tianfeng continued.

"Your Highness, to be honest, I have some personal grievances with Tang Zheng from the northern border."

"I heard that this person has repeatedly assaulted His Highness, and his crime should be punished! I have a plan, and I implore Your Highness for permission."

Jiang Tianfeng handed over a letter and handed it to the third prince.

Unexpectedly, the young master of the Jiang family still had grievances with that Tang Zheng, perhaps he could use the Jiang family to secretly solve Tang Zheng.

The third prince thought so in his heart. After arriving in the East Realm, there were countless pairs of eyes watching him in the dark. As a prince, he was too sensitive, so it was not convenient to do these things.

The reason my father sent me to the east is to test my ability. You need to think twice before doing anything. Not only must you complete it, but you must also do it beautifully!

The third prince is under a lot of pressure, and it is not enough to have the support of the Xiao family. If he can get the help of the Jiang family, he will be [-]% sure of this Eastern Expedition.

The third prince thought about it, but did not give Jiang Tianfeng an answer for a long time.

Jiang Tianfeng was very thoughtful and knew that His Highness was waiting for him to speak. If it was not beneficial, he might not be able to continue the conversation.

"Your Highness, you also know that the future Jiang family will be handed over to this minister. If this matter is successfully completed, this minister is willing to lead the Jiang family to submit to His Highness and swear allegiance to the death!"

Jiang Tianfeng suddenly knelt on the ground and said boldly.

The third prince was waiting for these words, he hurriedly got up, and stepped forward to help Jiang Tianfeng get up.

"Tianfeng doesn't have to be like this. I already know your intentions, so just act according to your plan!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, for fulfilling the task!"

"Your Highness is wise!"

"..."

At noon the next day, the scorching sun made people sweat profusely.

The soldiers standing on the city gate were all in a lazy state.

Some sleepy ones fell asleep directly leaning against the walls. As for the situation outside the city, it was left to the guards on the tower.

Jin Bowen imitated them and sat down, squinting his eyes, and slowly fell asleep, without hearing anything outside the window.

"Fatty, don't sleep, trouble is coming!"

Hearing that there was trouble, Jin Bowen immediately regained his spirits, stood up hastily, and followed Tang Zheng's gaze.

A hundred-man cavalry is galloping towards the west gate.

The majestic and mighty Heisha Demon Wolf is black all over and is about the size of two cows. Its sharp wolf claws, like blades, shone fiercely and coldly.

The iron-blooded wolf cavalry of the Xiao family is much more domineering than that of the Yan family.

The soldiers on horseback, with extraordinary prowess and fierce eyes, have waded through mountains of corpses and seas of blood countless times.

"That's the Xiao family's army, open the city gate quickly!"

"Come on, hurry up and send a message to the City Lord's Mansion."

"..."

Beat the drums!Marching salute!
The eyes of all the soldiers showed admiration!
The Xiao family's army standing firm on the front line, working desperately for the people behind them, is worthy of everyone's admiration.

Tang Zheng and Jin Bowen also performed the military salute. After experiencing the frontier war, the two deeply understood their difficulties.

"Boss, why are the cavalry from the Xiao family here? Logically speaking, if there is something wrong on the front line, it would be fine to send one or two soldiers to report it? Why are you mobilizing the troops?"

Jin Bowen was a little puzzled, and asked Tang Zheng.

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!"

"I'm afraid this time the trouble is not small!"

Tang Zheng stated his guess, watched the soldiers of the Xiao family enter the city, and rushed straight towards the city lord's mansion.

Not long after, the soldier who sent the message earlier came back and reported to the general, His Highness sent an order for Tang Zheng and Jin Bowen to pass.

City Lord's Mansion.

In front of the main hall, the third prince stood with his hands behind his back, and beside him stood the generals who led the troops of the Xiao family this time.

Nangong Xiaomeng heard the movement and rushed over curiously. When she saw Tang Zheng and Jin Bowen, a trace of doubt appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Jiang Tianfeng quietly watched this scene among the crowd in the City Lord's Mansion, his eyes locked on Tang Zheng, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised.

The appearance of Nangong Xiaomeng instantly attracted the attention of everyone present, and the soldiers were even more infatuated. They couldn't tolerate anything else in their eyes, including Jiang Tianfeng.

Nangong Xiaomeng Qingcheng's appearance and demeanor are refined, no matter where she is, she is the most dazzling existence.

"Xiao Meng, you came just in time, and you represent the Nangong family to be a witness."

"A few days ago, the second elder of the Xiao family died in the imperial city. Some people claimed that it was Tang Zheng who saw it with his own eyes and acted."

"I feel that Tang Zheng is indeed very suspicious. The second elder of the Xiao family was on the way to chase Tang Zheng that day, and what happened."

The words of the third prince completely aroused the anger of the soldiers, and they looked at Tang Zheng fiercely.

Jin Bowen panicked immediately, and looked around, but he didn't see the witness.

"Your Highness...Your Highness, the conviction is based on evidence, and you can't listen to the words of a villain."

Jin Bowen's words made the third prince chuckle, then clapped his hands, and the guards beside Jiang Tianfeng slowly walked out of the crowd.

"See Your Highness!"

"I was at the scene that day and saw with my own eyes that the master from the northern region brought by Tang Zheng killed the second elder of the Xiao family."

Jin Bowen stepped forward to argue, pointed at the man and cursed: "Don't talk nonsense, who can prove that you are there?"

Nangong Xiaomeng also questioned: "If you were on the scene, why didn't you report it in the imperial city instead of waiting until now?"

The man was just going out for a cutscene, but he shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, as if saying, whatever you say, I just saw it anyway.

The third prince raised his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet, then turned around and said to the general of the Xiao family next to him.

"The evidence really doesn't prove that Tang Zheng did it. I don't know what the general wants?"

"Your Highness, our Xiao family is not unreasonable, as long as Tang Zheng can accept the challenge, I will leave immediately."

The third prince shook his sleeves and said loudly: "Okay!"

"Everyone has also heard that as long as Tang Zheng accepts the Xiao family's challenge, General Xiao will leave with his troops, and there will be no embarrassment anymore."

Nangong Xiaomeng looked at Tang Zheng, feeling very worried.

The strength of the Xiao family's iron cavalry is known to everyone in the world. This is clearly a trap set up for Tang Zheng. With Tang Zheng's temperament, how could he refuse?
Sure enough, Tang Zheng directly agreed.

Jin Bowen's expression changed, and he whispered to Tang Zheng: "Boss, don't be impulsive, they don't take reason, I don't believe that the third prince dares to forcibly attack you in full view!"

"If I don't accept it, there will be more trouble when I get to the front line!"

Tang Zheng had a long-term vision. When he came to the City Lord's Mansion, he saw the posture of the Xiao family and guessed that this scene would happen.

Let the Xiao family's cavalry go back safe and sound, and the Xiao family's soldiers on the front line will definitely think that Tang Zheng is a softie.

At that time, it would be fine to target everywhere, Tang Zheng was worried that they would play tricks on the battlefield.

Tang Zheng knew how powerful the Yaozu was.

If we can't unite our enemies, the Eastern Frontier will be defeated!

Right now, it's just a matter of doing it, why should he refuse it!
"Very good, Ben Gong and Xiao Meng testify that if Tang Zheng wins, General Xiao must not go back on his word, otherwise, he will be dealt with by military law!"

"As for losing..."
