Broken camaraderie?
When the twenty-odd people heard this, they could not help but roll their eyes in anger. The battle was about to be put on the surface.
Lin Zheng's face was abnormally ugly, filled with rage. After all, he had been called a dog, and looking back at Wen Shang, his face was emotionless as if he had tacitly agreed. He couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.
Noticing Lin Zheng's unusual expression, Wen Shang's eyes were indifferent, not caring about it at all. To him, the Lin Family was indeed a dog that was used by him. However, this dog was still useful now.
"Your Highness must be joking," Wen Shang said flatly. "Marquis Lin is of high status and is an ally of my Wen Yuan Manor, how could he be a dog?"
His nonchalant tone made the suspicion in Lin Zheng's heart grow even more.
"This Wen Shang is still too tender. With just a few words, Master will be able to lead you by the nose." Zi Luo's voice sounded in Ling Yun's mind.
She was the only one who knew Ling Yun's plan. First, she dispelled the doubt in Wen Shang's heart, and then she instigated the relationship between the Wen Yuan Manor and Lin Hou Manor.
From the looks of it, all the plans were progressing smoothly.
"He's too confident!" If he was not wrong, everything would go according to his plan. The Wen Yuan Marquis Mansion would lose a large part of Lin Hou's assistance.
At the very least, it would be able to cause Lin Hou to have a bad feeling. With that fellow's brain, it would be difficult for him not to have a bad feeling!
However, after being influenced by the Wen Yuan manor all these years, it was temporarily impossible to take them in for himself for a short period of time. This was Ling Yun's regret in his heart.
"Your Highness, I feel that this matter is just a small matter, it is better not to put in the effort.
I suggest that we allow Lin Zheng's son, the Marquis, to apologize to Second Young Master Mo and make some compensation!
After all, just as His Highness had said, 'If this matter gets out of hand, harm will come to him.' Wen Shang said with a sincere face, but with a hint of threat.
In reality, he hoped that Ling Yun would really bring Lin Zheng back and beat him half to death.
If that was the case, with Lin Hou's protective personality, he would definitely feel discontent, but he could not do anything to Ling Yun, so he would find the Wen Yuan Manor to seek justice for them.
That way, in the future, he would be completely loyal to their Wen Yuan manor and do his best. He would truly become a sharp blade in the battle between the Wen Yuan manor and the royal family.
Unfortunately, all of this went against his expectations.
The reason for this was just as Ling Yun had said to Ziluo, Wen Shang was too confident in himself, and believed that everything was within his control.
Ling Yun muttered to himself in silence, and seemed to be weighing his gains and losses. Very quickly, he lightly nodded, and said: "What the young duke says is reasonable! It is indeed not appropriate for this matter to get out of hand. "
"It's good that Your Highness thinks this way!" Wen Shang's eyes flashed as he laughed.
Although it was somewhat different from what he had expected, the result did not change much. He believed that Lin Hou would accept his kindness.
"Then let's do it like this!" After fishing for half a day, it was time to take the bait, "There's no need for him to apologize, nor is there a need for compensation. Lin Zheng is the son of Marquis Lin, and the Marquis' Mansion is the son of Marquis Wen Yuan.
I've weighed this matter for a long time and felt that it would be more appropriate if I didn't make a move and let the young duke handle it. "
Wen Shang was stunned. What was this all about? When did this Ling Yun become so easy to talk to?
"Boss, that won't do." What about my revenge! " Upon hearing Ling Yun not asking Lin Zheng to apologize, Mo Xin's eyes widened.
He didn't want compensation, so he gave up. He wanted to take this opportunity to extort some money! Why did Lingyun let him go so easily?
Lin Zheng was also clearly stunned for a moment, his eyes filled with disbelief. In his heart, he unexpectedly felt a trace of gratitude. Since this matter was handed over to Wen Shang, then it shouldn't be a problem.
Wen Shang was still in the midst of confusion when he saw Ling Yun flash with a fierce glint, and continued: "But Young Master Mo Er has a respected identity, so being humiliated by Lin Zheng, you can't just casually take care of things. You must deal with it seriously, and must be heavily punished.
If the young duke wanted to be perfunctory, then he would likely see quite a few people tomorrow when he left the manor. "Hehe."
With a chuckle, Lingyun gave a meaningful glance to the youths beside him and shouted: "Let's go!"
After which, he retreated and kicked Mo Xin's butt. He felt as though his foot had sunk deeply into cotton.
Then, Second Young Master Mo rolled down the stairs with a pitiful cry. Lingyun and the rest quickly followed, and had the four guards carry the stunned Mo Xin downstairs as they quickly left.
In less than two breaths' time, the dozen of people had left the Cloudy Cloud Teahouse.
At this time, seeing that there was no one in front of him, Wen Shang gradually came to his senses. He knew that he had fallen into a trap, and couldn't help but feel angry.
Just when he was secretly enraged, a voice entered into his ears. This completely ignited the rage within his heart.
"Young duke, may I leave now?" Just a moment ago, he was still feeling grateful towards Ling Yun, so he did not hear Ling Yun's words before he left.
Ling Yun and the others were not sure when they would leave, but he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to quickly return to the house of the Marquis and tell his father what had happened today.
"Leave?" Wen Shang's gaze was ice-cold. It was this piece of trash who caused him to be toyed with by Lingyun, how could he let him go so easily? Moreover, Lingyun's words were still echoing in his ears when he left, so he did not doubt Lingyun's words at all.
With Ling Yun's character, if he did not severely punish Lin Zheng as Ling Yun had said, then when he went out tomorrow, he would see a lot of people. Moreover, they weren't ordinary people.
It was not as if Ling Yun had never experienced such things before. A few years ago, the Marquis' son had humiliated him and even had ideas for Qin Yinyue.
In the end, the infuriated Lingyun had dispatched 20,000 private troops and borrowed 10,000 private troops from the Qin Manor, surrounding the Marquis' Mansion so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak out.
In the end, Marquis Wu personally apologized and punished his son in public before Lingyun withdrew his troops.
This also made Lingyun the number one playboy in Lingxiao City, and the main reason why Lin Zheng and the rest were afraid of him.
Within Lingxiao City, who would dare to go against the Imperial Family?
Even the Marquis' Mansion would not do. This was the Ling Family's headquarters, and experts were as common as the clouds.
The Ling family had a total of seven to eight personal guards of over two hundred thousand. Although they were not directly stationed in Lingxiao City, they were not far from there. There were also the imperial guards and imperial guards.
Marquis Wen Yuan's Mansion was very strong, but this was not their territory. According to the Mansion's permit, there were only twenty thousand private troops. Although some were hidden, they were still unable to fight back.
If Ling Yun really did not care about anything, they would be forced to leave Ling Xiao City.
Lingyun was a threat, but it was very effective against Wen Shang, because he knew that the Marquis Mansion's setup was not complete, and he could not start a war with the royal family right now.
