Chapter 5401 Snow Clan
"Really, Father?"
Chang Xue looked at her father with excitement and shouted excitedly.
"Oh, that's natural. Xue'er, you have to understand that no one in the empire can disobey the instructions of the heaven."
Chang Sheng sneered and raised his hand to the sky.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see what Chang Sheng is really talking about.
"Father, it turns out to be..."
Chang Xue was stunned when she heard the voice. She understood the metaphor in her father's words and her heart trembled.
Before she could finish her words, Chang Sheng raised his hand to interrupt her.
"Xue'er, remember not to say these things at the feet of the Emperor."
"I'm just telling you a predetermined outcome for tonight. Don't talk nonsense even if you guess anything else."
Chang Sheng looked at his daughter solemnly and spoke in a concentrated voice.
"I, I understand, father!"
Chang Xue nodded excitedly, secretly delighted in her heart.
She didn't care why, the royal family wanted to eliminate the Ji family, the royal merchant family that had served the royal family for generations.
But when Chang Xue thought that Ji Huanying was going to die in the empire, and that he would even have the chance to see her corpse with his own eyes, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
"It's good that you know. Your father will be out for a while tonight. You stay in the mansion."
Chang Sheng looked at his well-behaved and sensible daughter and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
Chang Sheng walked up to his daughter and touched her head, then gave her earnest instructions.
"Yes, Dad, I understand what you said."
Chang Xue pursed her lips and nodded repeatedly at Chang Sheng.
Tonight is destined to be an unusual night, and the entire Ji family is bound to be a river of blood!
At the same time, Zui Xiang Lou, which was usually bustling with people, suddenly announced its closure.
A group of guests were asked to leave by the guards in Zui Xiang Lou and left cursing.
For a moment, in the huge Zui Xiang Lou, only one room was left with someone remaining.
"Liu Zhang, you should still remember the kindness our Snow Clan has shown you, right?"
Inside the room, Liu Zhang, the shopkeeper of Zui Xiang Lou, was sitting upright, looking at the black-robed woman wearing a bamboo hat across the table.
Hearing what she said and the snow-white jade pendant that the other party slapped on the table, Liu Zhang couldn't help but shrink his pupils.
"Of course I will never forget the kindness of the Snow Tribe. Without you, I would not be able to return to the empire safely."
"I promised you that if you come to the Empire to find me in the future, I will be able to help you no matter what it is."
"But you should also understand that it was not the Ji family who robbed the Snow Clan's treasures. They were only instructed by the imperial family."
Liu Zhang groaned for a moment, his expression now completely different from when he faced Zhang Yifeng before.
Just by sitting there, he exudes the aura of a superior.
"This is not something we should consider. You just need to tell us how to sneak into the Ji family."
"And just tell us where the Snow Tribe's treasure is hidden."
The woman in black robe didn't buy Liu Zhang's trick. She stared at him with cold eyes under her hat.
Liu Zhang looked at the snow-white jade pendant on the table and the group of Snow Clan members opposite him who were emitting a chilling aura. He could only sigh for a long while.
"There is a high probability that you will never come back once you leave."
“Okay, then I will tell you how to enter the Ji family and where your clan’s treasures are hidden.”
"But you also have to promise me that you will try not to hurt anyone from the Ji family. This matter involves a lot of things."
Seeing that the Snow Clan members had no reaction to his dissuasion, Liu Zhang could only sigh deeply and then spoke in a deep voice.
At the same time, a person walked in from outside the door and bowed to Liu Zhang.
Then he looked at the group of Snow Clan members and raised his hand to signal them to follow him.
"As much as possible."
The woman in black robe stood up and spat out two words coldly.
Then he led his men out of the room, following the restaurant guard who led the way.
In just a short moment, Liu Zhang was the only one left in the room.
Reaching out and taking the snow-white jade pendant on the table, Liu Zhang couldn't help but flash a look of reminiscence across his face.
"The sky of the Tianyu Empire is about to be in chaos."
After fiddling with the cold jade pendant in his hand for a while, Liu Zhang finally stood up.
Just at this moment, a guard from Zui Xiang Lou hurried in from outside the door and quickly came to him.
"Sir, the information you asked us to find earlier has been brought back to you."
As the guard spoke, he took out a jade scroll and handed it to Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang nodded slightly, took the jade slip and checked its contents.
After a while, Liu Zhang's hands trembled slightly twice, and he had already read the contents recorded in the jade slip.
"How could there be such a coincidence in this world?"
Liu Zhang said this with a somewhat grim expression, and turned to look at the guard beside him.
"Where are the people from the Snow Tribe? Have they been sent out?"
Liu Zhang tried his best to lower his tone and make himself appear calmer.
"Yes, my lord."
The guard at the side responded in a low voice.
"Well, now that things have come to this, we can only try to remedy the situation. Go and deliver this jade slip to a Mr. Zhang in the Ji Mansion."
Liu Zhang frowned and said this, then raised his hand, took out a portrait and handed it to the guard.
The guard took it and looked at it, and found that the person in the picture was exactly Zhang Yifeng.
"Yes, my lord."
The guard had no time to ask anything. He just put away the portrait and walked out of Zui Xiang Tower with the jade slip.
Liu Zhang walked to the window on the second floor of Zui Xiang Lou and looked at the new moon rising in the sky.
"It's like a storm is brewing."
After a sigh, Liu Zhang shook his head and went straight back to the room.
"Notify everyone that all personnel in the empire return to Zui Xiang Lou tonight."
"If the rest of you are delayed and can't come back for the time being, please find a safe place and wait for contact tomorrow."
Liu Zhang sat alone in the room and talked to himself.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, there was movement in the shadows behind him.
A pair of bright eyes slowly opened in the shadows, bowed to Liu Zhang, and then disappeared back into the shadows.
At the same time, the Ji family's house was decorated with lights and countless servants and the Ji family's side branches had gathered together.
But unlike the jubilant scene at the Ji family's house, all the houses within a ten-mile radius around the Ji mansion had already been cleared out.
Countless mysterious people in night clothes have been lying in ambush around the Ji family for a long time.
The Ji family, immersed in the banquet atmosphere, had no idea of the approaching crisis.
In a room closest to Ji's house, several men in black gathered there.
The leader was tall and strong, with a black cloth covering his face, and he exuded a murderous aura.
"Sir, when do we act?"
Standing next to the masked man was Chang Sheng, who was also dressed in black.
At this moment, he was looking at the tall and strong masked man with great respect.
