"Ah."

Jia Dong immediately sat up straight, then stood up, holding the carriage door.

"Hehe, it seems the Zhen family is also waiting anxiously."

"Ziyang, notify the team to speed up and arrive at Wuji County before noon. Reward everyone with a catty of meat and a dou of wine."

"Let everyone have a good rest," Jia Dong said.

Zhao Feng, who was riding on the horse, immediately bowed and smiled, agreeing.

"Oh, by the way, where is your younger brother Zilong?" Jia Dong asked.

"Uh..."

Zhao Feng turned his head left and right, then replied with an embarrassed expression: "Answering the Proprietor, this kid is playful and has a mischievous personality. I don't know where he ran off to. I've caused the Proprietor worry."

Jia Dong hurriedly waved his hand with a smile: "No matter, no matter. Children are just playful, let him be."

As he spoke, Jia Dong sat back in the carriage.

And Zhao Feng rode his horse toward the front of the team to pass on the order.

Watching Zhao Feng's receding back,

Jia Dong shook his head and said: "The Lord is truly miraculous. How did he know that Changshan Zhending was hiding such two capable brothers?"

Before opening the trade route from Bingzhou to Jizhou last year, Duan Yu had instructed Jia Dong.

He said that when passing through Zhending County in Changshan State, keep an eye out for someone named Zhao Yun.

When Jia Dong first passed through Zhending County, he really found them, but he only found the Zhao family.

He also inquired about Zhao Yun.

It's just that Zhao Yun was not at home at that time.

According to Zhao Yun's brother, Zhao Feng, Zhao Yun had gone out traveling.

Jia Dong didn't think much of it at the time and directly kept Zhao Feng.

The caravan from Bingzhou to Jizhou needed guards along the way.

And Zhao Feng was also a famous hero in the local area.

Jia Dong immediately offered Zhao Feng a price he couldn't refuse.

According to Jia Dong's thinking, as long as Zhao Feng was kept by his side, Zhao Yun would definitely not be able to run away when he returned later.

Besides Zhao Feng, more than a dozen other Zhao clansmen were also hired by Jia Dong.

But until winter, Zhao Feng's younger brother Zhao Yun did not return.

The trade route was blocked in winter, so Zhao Feng and a group of Zhao clansmen stayed at home.

Just a while ago, after the road was clear, Jia Dong organized the caravan to transport goods to Jizhou.

And while passing through Zhending, he learned some good news.

During the New Year last year, Zhao Yun had already returned home from outside.

And so, Jia Dong naturally kept Zhao Yun in the caravan.

Jia Dong also didn't know how Duan Yu could know from thousands of miles away that this Zhao Yun was very powerful.

Although he was only fourteen or fifteen years old, just two days ago, the caravan encountered a group of bandits.

The journey from Bingzhou to Jizhou was long, and it was inevitable to have some thieves on the road.

Especially now that natural disasters were rampant and times were bad, with no harvest in the fields, there were more and more such people on the road.

It must be said that those hundred or so mountain bandits had no eye for talent, daring to intercept such a caravan.

Jia Dong originally wanted to teach them a good lesson.

But before Jia Dong could give the order, Zhao Feng's younger brother, Zhao Yun, led more than a dozen Zhao clansmen and killed those hundred-plus mountain bandits, making them flee in a panic.

When Jia Dong arrived at the front of the team, he happened to see the fourteen or fifteen-year-old Zhao Yun killing in all directions.

The silver spear in his hand was like a swimming dragon; it was unbelievably strong.

Only then did Jia Dong finally understand why Duan Yu wanted to find this kid named Zhao Yun.

If he grew up a little more, wouldn't he be a proper "enemy of ten thousand"?

Ten miles outside Wuji County.

Several carriages were parked.

Among them, in a luxurious carriage pulled by two white horses, Zhen Jiang, wearing a white skirt, sat quietly in the carriage, looking forward with anticipation.

And beside Zhen Jiang sat a little girl who was also wearing a white long skirt and looked five parts similar to Zhen Jiang.

In the distance on the horizon, the caravan was gradually driving along the official road.

Zhen Tuo, sitting beside Zhen Jiang, immediately pointed to the distance with her jade arm and said: "Eldest Sister, they are here."

Zhen Jiang, who was lost in thought, then looked up.

However, Zhen Jiang, who had just gotten off the carriage, heard a large sound of horse hooves coming from behind.

Zhen Jiang, standing beside the carriage, looked back, and when she saw who it was, her eyebrows immediately furrowed.

"Eldest Sister, it seems to be Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle," Zhen Tuo said, standing beside Zhen Jiang.

Zhen Jiang, with furrowed brows, nodded.

That's right, the people who came were indeed the Zhen clan.

More than a hundred cavalry plus hundreds of private soldiers followed behind the three middle-aged men, looking like they were coming with ill intent.

"Eldest Sister, Uncle, Third Uncle, and Fourth Uncle must be here for this batch of goods," Zhen Tuo said with a frown: "Eldest Sister, what should we do?"

Zhen Jiang took a deep breath and said with a firm gaze: "It's okay, I will naturally handle it." ===== CHAPTER 591 =====
