Chapter 3104 Sacrifice Copper

“Commander Lu, why are you here? What do you need?” Feng Fei Fei took along a butler to welcome him in. She stood opposite the king’s guards.

The king’s guard was in charge of Jade Wall City’s defenses. There were 14 squadrons of riders in their midst, and there were 14 commanders. The commanders were controlled by Steel Scene.

Steel Scene had two other subordinates, and that composed the whole of the king’s guard.

The 14 king’s guard squadrons were also referred to as the Kingdom’s 14 Riders. Every leader was a very special character. The whole of the king’s guard was not entirely commanded by Steel Scene’s decrees, but over half the commanders showed unyielding loyalty to him.

This team was called the Thunder Lion Riders. They were in charge of the security in that area. The one known as Commander Lu San Zhi was one of Steel Scene’s favorites.

Now, he had brought the Thunder Lion Riders to Feng Fei Fei’s house. It did not look like a social call, so Feng Fei Fei looked fairly glum. “The Thunder Lion Riders have received a report there might be illicit items in the vicinity. We will need to search this area. So, please co-operate.” Lu San Zhi was very strong. He was wearing scale armor, and he rode atop a male lion that wielded fire. He looked like some demon god from hell. He looked very scary. Feng Fei Fei frowned and asked, “Illicit items? What illicit items?”

“That is classified,” Lu San Zhi coldly said. He waved his hands. “Go search but show some care.”

Feng Fei Fei frowned and said, “Hang on, Commander Lu. You cannot just barge into someone’s residence like this. It is not appropriate.”

“What? Are you going to question the king’s guard?” Lu Shan Zhi’s face did not change. He looked cold.

“Of course, I will not.” Feng Fei Fei knew she should not commit a crime. Going against the king’s guard was practically the same as treason. That crime likely would have led to her death.

“If you are not, then you should go away.” Lu Shan Zhi commanded his soldiers to raid the castle.

Feng Fei Fei was forced to call for her people to stand down and avoid initiating a conflict with the Thunder Lion Riders. Otherwise, even if she was not guilty, she would be found guilty. It would have meant she went against the national law that governed the whole of the Qin Kingdom.

Feng Fei Fei knew that Lu Shan Zhi was not there for a social visit, but there was nothing she could do about it. She had a lot of fame. She was one of the top three singers, but singers were only famous. Her status did not put her above the law.

Normally, the nobles respected her. The king’s guard would not have offended her for petty reasons.

This was different. If Lu Shan Zhi received the order from Steel Scene, nobody else’s respect or authority would challenge it. Unless another big noble showed up, there was nothing she could. Last time, Feng Fei Fei rejected the help of the nobles. It was unlikely that any other big nobles would want to stick their neck out for her now.

Lu Shan Zhi did not go search. He just sat on the male lion, parked at the entrance, and waited for his men to finish the search.

Han Sen walked next to Feng Fei Fei and asked, “What happened?”

“Commander Lu said my house is harboring a forbidden item,” Feng Fei Fei said.

Han Sen looked at Feng Fei Fei but did not speak. Feng Fei Fei knew what he meant. She looked at Han Sen and asked, “How could I hide a forbidden item? I think Steel Scene is merely trying to rattle us.”

“I do not think he is only trying to annoy us,” Han Sen coldly said.

Feng Fei Fei wished to say something, but she suddenly heard a Thunder Lion Rider soldier kneel in front of Lu San Zhi and say, “Reporting to the commander, we found lots of Sacrifice Copper in the basement.”
