Chapter 157

Ning Yi and Feng Zhiwei had been too careless; they had not expected the Chang Family to have already extended their power here. They had not known about the family's deep ties to this Imperial Official, and they had not thought the Shen Family would be so bold. They had not prepared well enough for this situation, and they and their men had suffered greatly. From now on, Feng Zhiwei would only err on the side of caution. 

When they left the mountain, Gu Nanyi's hidden guards had sent off messages through many different channels. Helian Zheng had called for his Eight Valiants, and Ning Yi had sent his bodyguard Ning Cheng to command the Longnan province soldiers and bring them to Ji Yang. They would not wait idly for the Imperial Envoy Guards to arrive, calling for reinforcements from an old general in Prince Chu's camp. 

Now they only needed to wait.
