Chapter 77: Little Brother and Big Brother (2/2)
Ma Linglong screamed out and pointed at the leading knight, Ma Tai-an, shivering.
”Lady, here is Yunzhou. Nothing can be kept from our Governor. Our Governor has known that you contended with others in Baiyun Town yesterday.”
Although Ma Tai-an was cruel, he spoke tenderly. He explained to Ma Linglong patiently and saw her with love and care. ”Lady, please come home with me. If you don't go back, I'm afraid Madam will kill us!”
”My Mom—!” Ma Linglong was amazed and shook her head. ”No, I can't go back with you. I don't want to get married to Lu Shaoyou. I'm going to Tian Long Mystic Mountain to look for my big brother!”
”Lady, please don't make it difficult for us. The Governor and Madam have already ordered us to bring you back. We dare not go against their order!”
”Well!” Ma Linglong saw Ma Tai-an, then Xu Yong and Junior Leopard. She saw that Xu Yong and Junior Leopard had remained unmoved and she realized what happened. She said fiercely to Junior Leopard, ”Little brother, do you know who I am early before?”
Although she looked cruel, she didn't intimidate anybody at all. Junior Leopard rolled his eyes, while Xu Yong said, ”Miss Ma, since you took out the pearl of black jade, I've guessed who you are, so I tried to send the information. This is none of my apprentice's business!”
”Then aren't you all going to Tian Long Mystic Mountain?!”
”Yes, Miss Ma. We really just want to go to Tian Long Mystic Mountain!” Xu Yong smiled. Ma Linglong truly hated this honest man when he was playing some tricks. She wanted to kick him in the face ferociously.
”Then why did you cheat me?”
”I just wanted you to stay with us. The Governor took control of Yunzhou. I'm a member of Yunzhou and it's my responsibility to share the Governor's burdens. If you have some trouble, it would be a terrible blow to both the Governor and Yunzhou. So I'm brazen to cheat you. If you're angry about that, please blame me.”
”Hum—!” Ma Linglong said coldly and was about to say something, but Ma Tai-an beside her cupped his fist in his other hand.
”Thank you very much. Thanks for your information, we can find our lady quickly. Our Governor is very grateful for that, and our lady won't scold you. Before I came, our Governor allowed me to tell you about the fair in Linqing City, we'll follow your Family Head's suggestion. Please let him know.”
”Then thanks to the Governor!” Xu Yong was delighted when he heard that.
It was a good thing that we returned favors. So why not do that?
Now Xu Yong was glad for making such a good decision.
Hearing what they said, Ma Linglong was dissatisfied and said unpleasantly, ”Hum, it turned out I was just worth a fair!”
Xu Yong flushed and speechless. Frankly, this was good for Ma Linglong, but it was his fault to cheat a little girl.
”Little brother, come here. Can you do me a favor?”
Ma Linglong was straightforward. After she complained about this, she seemed to understand that it couldn't be reversed. So, she didn't look at Xu Yong, but smiled weirdly at Junior Leopard.
Junior Leopard shrank subconsciously. ”I'm only a little kid. You can ask for help to these knights if you have some trouble. They're powerful and strong than me.”
”This has nothing to do with their skills. Moreover, they're Golden Wolf Cavalry who are under the charge of my father and they can't come out of Yunzhou at will!”
Go out of Yunzhou? Junior Leopard suddenly remembered her destination and a bad feeling arose. ”We are going to Huayang this time and we won't go to Tian Long Mystic Mountain!”
”It doesn't matter. I don't want you to go there right now. I'll need to wait another two years to get married!” Miss Ma took a jade from her bosom and gave it to Junior Leopard. ”You just need to give this jade to my big brother, Lei Xu of Tian Long Taoism, one month before I get married. You tell him that I don't want to get married to Lu Shaoyou. With this jade, you can go around Tian Long Mystic Mountain!”
”Ah?!” Junior Leopard was aware of nothing while Xu Yong felt bitter and his hand that took the reins shivering suddenly.
Xu Yong recognized Ma Linglong. He wanted to take this opportunity to show his favor to the Governor, and then the Governor would be grateful to him. In fact, he was right. Junior Leopard didn't understand how many benefits Ma Linglong would bring to him and the Wu Family, but Xu Yong was very clear. However, if the benefits were associated with the marriage of Ma Linglong and Lu Shaoyou, then the states of the whole world would be affected. Then he'd better give up these benefits.
However, Ma Linglong had spoken to them and all of them heard what she said. Then it was difficult to explain.
Even if Xu Yong was an old man with rich experience, he didn't expect that Ma Linglong would ask for such help from Junior Leopard. He never thought that Ma Linglong was closely related to the Chief of Tian Long Taoism—Lei Xu.
When he thought of what Wang She had done when Lu Shaoyou had sought marriage, he suddenly felt a terrible headache.
Although he was the Elder of the Wu Family, he never wanted to offend the people who were involved in this thing.
However, they were already involved in this matter.
