After Xia Younan learned the whole story, he was so angry that he almost exploded on the spot.

Damn Liu Tonghai and Kong Tiande, they were generals defending the city but they harmed the people in the city, they should be punished by heaven and earth!

If such a person can become a general defending a city, it seems that the fate of Zhujing Kingdom is indeed coming to an end.

Clenching his fists to calm his irritable mood, Xia Younan rolled his eyes and thought for a while, then asked the old boss: "The gate of Yuhua City ahead is sealed, how are you going to get in?"

The old boss wiped the tears from his face and sighed, "Liu Tonghai gave us a sign, saying that the soldiers guarding the city would let us in when they saw the sign."

Xia Younan was delighted and asked hurriedly, "Has Kong Tiande seen Bai Ling's appearance?"

The old boss shook his head and said, "No, Bai Ling has never been out of Yanggu City. Kong Tianci, the old thief, has only heard of Bai Ling's beauty."

That's easy. Xia Younan raised her eyebrows, smiled, and asked those people, "What do you think of my appearance?"

Upon hearing this, several people came closer to take a closer look, and only then did they see the woman's face clearly.

Against the backdrop of the moonlight, I saw the woman in front of me with willow-shaped eyebrows, autumnal almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose, natural red lips, and skin as smooth and delicate as white jade with a soft and delicate glow.

She wore no makeup, yet was charming and beautiful, as radiant as a fairy from the moon palace descending to the mortal world.

The troupe was almost stunned. They had never seen such a stunningly beautiful person!

I thought Bai Ling was the most beautiful, but compared with the woman in front of me, she was not even one-third as beautiful.

"Does it look good?" Xia Younan smiled confidently, like a night-blooming cereus appearing in the dark night.

After hearing her question, several people finally reacted and nodded, "Beautiful, beautiful, young lady is stunningly beautiful, it is hard for anyone in the world to rival you."

"Then... since I'm entering Yuhua City on behalf of Miss Bailing to meet Kong Tiande, he shouldn't be suspicious, right?" Xia Younan asked slowly.

"Ah?" The old boss couldn't help but exclaimed, "Girl, what are you talking about? Are you kidding?"

"I'm not kidding, it's settled." Xia Younan made the decision on his own and assigned them tasks, "Bai Ling, give me your light gauze dress, and I'll go into the city for you."

"Master, send two people to accompany Bai Ling to the nearby village to wait for us to return, and the others will continue to enter the city!"

"Girl, what do you mean? This is a matter of life and death." The old boss really couldn't understand what she meant.

Bai Ling was also stunned. She was kindhearted and clearly wanted to avoid this disaster, but she still refused: "Miss, everyone's life and property are equal. How can I let you suffer such humiliation instead of me?"

Xia Younan lost his patience with their nagging and said bluntly, "I came to the city to take Kong Tiande's head. Do you understand?"

The old boss and others' eyes widened immediately and they looked at her in disbelief.

Xia Younan continued: "Someone has already taken Liu Tonghai's head. Your family will be fine."

"Really...really?" After a long pause, someone asked in disbelief.

Xia Younan smiled and said, "But your city is going to change hands."

The old boss slapped his thigh, gritted his teeth and said angrily: "It's better to change the owner! It's better to change the owner! Yanggu City has been ruined by Liu Tonghai for a long time.

"The country is full of corrupt officials and the ruler is incompetent, causing the people to live in misery and resentment. When Lingjiang State invades the city, we the people will hang up lanterns and celebrate warmly!"

"That's right!" Someone agreed. "I heard that when Lingjiang conquered a city, they never hurt innocent people or destroyed their property. This shows that the king and soldiers of Lingjiang are all kind people. We can't wait for them to take over Yanggu City!"

"Hahaha, that's great!" Xia Younan was very happy that they could say such words.

"Let's go, listen to my instructions, I will ensure that you are safe."

"Okay!" At this time, the old boss and others also realized that the woman in front of them was no ordinary person, and they began to obey her orders.

He said in his heart that he was lucky and that Bai Ling was not destined to die because this woman who appeared out of nowhere brought them a turning point.

Next, Xia Younan exchanged clothes with Bai Ling, and asked the two young men to escort Bai Ling to a nearby village to rest and wait, while he and the old boss and five others walked out of the woods and got back on the carriage to the city.

The carriage slowly drove towards the city gate. The guards at the gate immediately swarmed over and asked about his identity in a stern voice with swords in hand.

The old boss took out the token given by Liu Tonghai, and the guards carefully confirmed it before opening the city gate and letting them in.

After entering the city, Xia Younan opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and found that the scene in the city was extremely desolate.

The streets were deserted, with fallen leaves scattered all over the ground, and the occasional pedestrians all had sad faces, without a trace of smile.

This scene is completely different from the prosperous towns in Lingjiang State.

According to the address given by the soldiers guarding the city, the old boss drove his carriage outside the city for two quarters of an hour and finally stopped the carriage in front of a wealthy mansion.

It was already bright, and the mansion in front of us was extremely majestic. First, there were two two-meter-high stone lions in front of the gate. The lions had hydrangeas under their feet and pearls in their mouths, and their faces were majestic and imposing.

Then there are the two gates painted vermilion red, with a black golden nanmu plaque hanging on top of the gates, with the three large characters "General's Mansion" inscribed in a flamboyant manner.

At this moment, the gate of the mansion was closed. More than 20 guards were standing in front of the door with swords in hand. Nearly a hundred soldiers were lined up in two rows under the wall, surrounding the entire mansion so tightly that even a fly might not be able to fly through.

How strict! Xia Younan looked at this scene and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

With such tight security, how could she escape after killing Kong Tiande?

"Girl, are you ready?" The old boss stopped the carriage and asked Xia Younan in a low voice.

Xia Younan touched the golden hairpin on her head and nodded gently, "I'm ready, go in."

"Okay." The old boss agreed and asked everyone to get off the carriage and walk towards the mansion gate together.

Before they could get close to the gate, the guards at the door surrounded them and pointed swords at them.

The old troupe owner smiled, handed the token to one of them with both hands, and introduced himself: "We are the opera troupe from Yanggu City, and it was General Kong who asked us to perform here."

The guard checked the token carefully and thought it was true, so he didn't make things difficult for them. He had them searched and made sure they had no sharp weapons before letting them in.

"The general has gone out to do some work. He will be back in two hours. You wait here and prepare for the performance." A leader said as he led them into the gate of the general's mansion.

As soon as they entered the mansion, they were dazzled by the luxury.

There are pavilions, towers, carved beams and painted buildings. On the eaves carved from sandalwood, a phoenix spreads its wings as if ready to take off. The ground paved with white jade shines with a warm glow.

The glazed tiles and coiled dragon pillars all demonstrate the owner's luxury and style.
