”May I ask if you are the Second Young Master of the Marshal Mansion, Yang Xiaofeng?”
Hu Yan asked with an expectant expression.
”That's me!” Feng Feiyun put away his smile and replied with a serious expression.
However, he only saw Hu Yan's excited expression; he knelt down towards Yun Che and said, ”Great! Second Young Master, I've finally found you. I hope Second Young Master can represent Old Marshal Hu and seek justice for our Hu Family!”
Feng Feiyun was surprised, and quickly helped Hu Yan up: ”Why is Brother Hu like this? I cannot afford such a big gift. Quickly get up! ”
With the insistence of Feiyun, Hu Yan finally stood up, and said with excitement: ”Second Young Master, my father, Hu Ke, received the favor of the Second General. He was originally a personal guard of the Second General, and after the Second General passed away, he became dispirited. Originally, the local people were quite wealthy and their days were leisurely and peaceful. Who knew that the local bandit leader coveted my sister's beauty and actually wanted to forcefully marry my sister? Of course my father would not agree! In order to protect me and my sister, my father was also killed by the thieves, and in order to protect me and my sister's escape, only my brother and sister are left in my family. Before my father left, he ordered me to bring my sister to the capital, and asked the Yang family to uphold justice for us! ”
After Hu Yan finished speaking, he looked at Yang Xiaofeng with his red eyes, while Hu Wanting, who was beside him, also lowered her head and sobbed.
”How can a normal bandit be so arrogant?” Do the local officials not care? ” After hearing this, Yun Yang was also filled with doubts.
Hearing his question, Hu Yan's face was filled with anger.
”The background of these bandits is not simple at all. They have been in the local business for many years, but no one has ever bothered with them. ”The government doesn't care at all. That's why when many of them barged into the county city in order to provoke me, the government didn't react at all!”
”There's actually such a thing?” Feng Feiyun was also very angry. Not to mention other things, he was actually very much like someone who didn't want to bother with more than one matter at a time. However, after hearing Hu Yan say that their father had once been a general of the Yang Family, the nature of their relationship was completely different. It was because there was something wrong with him. He had to protect his own weakness. The Second General they called him was the late Yang Yulong, his father in this life. Even though he had never met his father before, he did not have a deep impression of him. But he couldn't just take the body of someone else's son and do nothing, right?
”This is not a good place to talk. Please follow me back to the manor.” Once things are clear, I will report this to Grandfather and have him seek justice for all of you! ” Feng Feiyun said to the Hu siblings.
”We will rely on Second Young Master's arrangements!” But in his heart, he was extremely excited. Since Feng Feiyun was able to bring them back to the mansion, it meant that most of the Yang Family would act on their behalf. Furthermore, the Yang Family's protection of the short was not his patent, it was well-known!
Thus, Feiyun brought the Hu siblings back to the Yang Mansion.
After he returned to the mansion, he first got the maid to arrange two rooms for the Hu siblings to stay in. Then, he went into detail about what had happened. Hu Yan's father, Hu Ke, was the personal bodyguard of Yang Yulong. During the battle when Yang Yulong died, Hu Ke was escorted by Yang Yulong back to the capital by his injured uncle, Yang Yufeng. This showed how much trust Yang Yulong had in Hu Ke. After Hu Ke and Yang Hu sent Yang Yufeng back to the Yang Mansion, they received the news of Yang Yulong's death. As a personal guard, his master had died, but the personal guard hadn't been able to protect him. Wurke felt extreme pain, and immediately followed Yang Yulong to his death. After being stopped by Yang Xiudi, he dispiritedly decided to withdraw from the military and go home to retire. Seeing that Wurke had made up his mind to go, Yang Xiudi gave him some money so that he could live a peaceful life. Originally, the Hu Family lived a very ordinary life, but there was a Tan Yang Village with around a hundred people. The leader of the village was called Wan Bao, and it was said that his cultivation had reached the peak of the military general! He was quite infamous around the region, but he didn't know how such an expert could become a bandit. Under the lead of the Myriad Treasures, the Tan Yang Stronghold amassed wealth everywhere, and they committed all sorts of crimes. Hu Yan's sister, Hu Wanting, was famous for being a beauty in the local county. He didn't know where Wanbao found out that he wanted to force Hu Wanting to marry her, but he resisted with all his might. In a fit of rage, Wan Bao brought people to rob the Hu family and burned them down without leaving a single person alive. At that time, Hu Ke also died. Before he died, he secretly sent away the Hu siblings and instructed them to go to the capital and ask Marshal Yang to avenge the Hu family!
After learning the whole story, he was lost in thought. This was because he had a lot of doubts. First, why was the local bandit so arrogant, yet no one was interested in him? Secondly, why would a peak general level expert become the head of bandits? One had to know that the top generals were the resources that every noble family would fight for! After some thought, he felt that there was only one possibility. It meant that there was someone backing that bandit up, and they were definitely not ordinary bandit. This was definitely not a simple matter!
After understanding the situation, he brought Hu Yan and his sister to meet Yang Xiudi. Arriving at the main hall, he saw Yang Xiaotian sitting at the seat of honor, with Yang Xiaotian standing beside him.
”Grandfather, big brother.” Feiyun politely greeted.
