Being a Lady of an Influential Family

The situation on the battlefield was getting worse and worse for the Sun family. Although Sun Liang tried his best to stop Fu Fengcheng in Hechuan, the effect was not satisfactory.

It didn't take much effort for Young Master Fu to cross the Hejiang River and head straight for Pengcheng. On the other side, Lou Lanzhou and Song Lang did not give in, leading the army towards Pengcheng step by step.

In the Governor's Mansion, the doors and windows around were closed, and the study was dark.

Sun Liang was sitting behind the desk, only his breathing could be heard in the deathly silent room. There was a faint light outside the window, and it was clearly daytime now, but that light could not penetrate the window and shine into the study.

In the darkness, Sun Liang's eyes were fixed on the front. If someone opened the door to let the light shine in, he would find that his eyes were red and bloodshot. Sun Liang hadn't slept all night, his eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at the empty study room in front of him viciously, as if he was looking at someone he hated deeply through the void.

Overseer. A low and suppressed voice came from outside the door.

Only then did Sun Liang come to his senses, and said coldly, What's the matter? The people outside the door paused, and before Sun Liang got impatient, they whispered, Song Lang's army has broken through Sui County.

Touch! The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground came from inside, and the person standing at the door couldn't help shrinking his neck.

After waiting for a while but did not hear any movement inside, the man had no choice but to call out, Overseer?

Sun Liang's voice came from inside, Get lost!

The person who sent the message at the door didn't dare to ask more questions, so he had to apologize again and again and turned around and ran away.

The atmosphere in Pengcheng was very tense during this period, and there were many fewer people on the street than usual, but there were many more patrolling soldiers.

Everyone knows that almost all of Pengcheng is surrounded now, and this place is an isolated city. Those who can run have already run away, and those who cannot run can only resign themselves to their fate and wait to see the result of this war.

The propaganda weapons of all parties have not been idle in the past few months. Even ordinary people in Pengcheng, who are least concerned about political affairs, know why the provincial coalition forces want to attack Sun Liang.

Because he not only forcibly occupied the territory of the Shen family, but also colluded with the Nile and Dayin people to invade Anxia.

Treason has always been the most unforgivable felony. As long as the Southwest still belongs to Anxia, ​​what Sun Liang did is genuine treason. Not to mention that Sun Liang also dragged the entire southwestern region into the flames of war because of treason, causing many young men in the southwestern region to die meaninglessly on the battlefield.

For a while, the prestige of Sun Liang and the Sun family had dropped to the lowest in Pengcheng, and almost no common people were willing to defend Pengcheng with Warden Sun.

It's not that Sun Liang never banned the dissemination of these news, but obviously rumors are more attractive the more they are banned, not to mention the simultaneous efforts of several forces, even if Pengcheng is Sun Liang's lair, it won't help.

Leng Sa sat drinking tea by the window of a tea house not far from the Governor's Mansion. Pengcheng is different from places like Yongcheng or Jiangcheng in the capital. Most of the buildings here are still old-style buildings. Even in the most prosperous area of ​​Pengcheng, almost There are not many tall buildings in sight.

The people coming and going on the street also lacked the fashionable atmosphere of some young people in the metropolis, and looked much more simple.

Leng Sa was also wearing a plain cloth and a black sarong skirt, her hair was braided into two braids hanging on her chest, and she wore a pair of plain glasses, making her look like a schoolgirl.

Jiang Yu sat across from her, looking at Leng Sa with great interest.

Leng Sa was a little puzzled, holding the teacup and asked, What are you looking at?

Jiang Yu smiled and said, Miss Leng is very good at disguise.

Leng Sa raised her eyes and said with a smile, Young Master Jiang laughed. What kind of disguise is she? This is Jiang Ershao who has never seen anyone who can really disguise.

Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows slightly, How long is Miss Leng going to sit here? It has been half an hour since he sat down here, and he doesn't know how long Leng Sa sat here before, but Mrs. Fu doesn't look like that either. It looks like something is wrong, I really don't know what's the point of her sitting here?

Leng Sa raised her chin slightly, motioning him to look over there.

Jiang Yu followed her gaze and saw the looming building not far ahead, The Governor's Mansion?

Leng Sa nodded and said, Yes, I want to take a look first.

... Although she didn't know what she wanted to see, Jiang Yu didn't say anything more, and sat with Leng Sa for a while.

Leng Sa seemed to finally feel that he had seen enough, got up and said, Let's go. Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly stood up, this place is too close to the Governor's Mansion, it is still quite dangerous to say.

The two returned to the temporary foothold of Jiang Yu and others in Pengcheng. In the yard, Zhou Yan and the others were squatting in a corner to study the map near the Governor's Mansion.

Before Leng Sa rejected their proposal, Jiang Zhan and Fu Yucheng were hit hard. After returning, several people began to frantically collect information and make plans. Although Leng Sa rejected them several times, but each time they made some progress, Leng Sa was still very satisfied. of.

Shang Feiyun was lazily resting on the recliner, and when she saw Leng Sa and the two coming in, she sat up, looked Leng Sa up and down, raised her eyebrows, and said, Hey, where did this little girl come from? Could it be that she was deceived by Jiang Ershao Are you here?

Leng Sa was speechless, and said with a smile: The head of the Chamber of Commerce will not give up.

Shang Feiyun's dress is also completely different from usual, she is wearing an old-fashioned dress with bright colors, her hair is also tied up in a bun with a hairpin, and her beautiful face does not look like the leader of the Feiyun Society, Rather, she looked like a hot and glamorous proprietress in the Southwest.

Instructor! Zhou Yan and the others immediately stood up and saluted respectfully.

Leng Sa waved her hand and asked, How do you see it?

Jiang Zhan spread the topographic map in his hand on the table under the tree, and said, Instructor, our people have been investigating for two days, and the terrain and defense points around the Governor's Mansion have been figured out.

Leng Sa walked over to have a look, a little amazed, Sun Liang really cherishes his life.

Jiang Yu lazily said, Who would spare his life?

Leng Sa said: He will make us very embarrassed. Look... around the Governor's Mansion, needless to say, there are no less than 20 guards in Mingli. At least ten of them have machine guns. If you fight here, even if you bring an army, you may not be able to get in, and if you go in, you may not be able to get out.

Jiang Yu looked at the others, Can't you do it too? Jiang Yu had worked with the special service team for a long time, and she still had some confidence in their abilities.

Zhou Yan said, There is no return. It is almost impossible to shoot at close range. The slightly better shooting positions that can be found have been controlled by the Sun family.

Jiang Zhan said, So we can't do anything in the Governor's Mansion? But Sun Liang doesn't go out at all recently. We checked, and he hasn't stepped out of the Governor's Mansion for half a month.

Leng Sa was not in a hurry, He will always come out, let's keep an eye on it first. By the way...the Governor's Mansion doesn't have any underground passages, right?

Shang Feiyun gloated a little, It's hard to say that Sun Liang cherishes his life so much.

Leng Sa raised her hand and tapped her forehead, thought for a while and said, If Sun Liang doesn't come out, it's impossible for everyone in the Sun family not to come out, right?

Zhou Yan and Jiang Zhan looked at each other and said in unison, Understood, instructor!

Leng Sa turned to Shang Feiyun and Jiang Yu and asked, Is there any whereabouts of the gold that Sun Liang took away?

Shang Feiyun shook his head and said, No, that batch of gold was taken away two months ago, but the news only leaked out a few days ago. With this time, Sun Liang might have already shipped the things to somewhere gone.

Leng Sa said, No matter how one million taels of gold is transported away, it's impossible to go quietly. No one knows where it went? Do you think it's possible?

Jiang Yu frowned and said, Sun Liang must send his confidants to do this kind of thing, and we won't be able to get in touch with these people in a short time. Besides... maybe these people have already been silenced by Sun Liang.

Leng Sa said, It's impossible for no one to know that the gold was shipped out of the warehouse, right? If it wasn't for someone deliberately concealing it, how could it be revealed after two months? I want to meet the person in charge of finance in Pengcheng.

Shang Feiyun said, The person in charge of the finances is Sun Liang's mother's cousin, Zhao Qingyun. We are watched by people, but he seems to be packing up his belongings these days, and he might want to run away.

Leng Sa asked, Can I see him?

Shang Feiyun thought for a moment and nodded, I'll arrange it.

Hearing this, Leng Sa smiled, Sure enough, the head of the Chamber of Commerce has a wide network, thanks for your hard work.

The Chamber of Commerce first rolled his eyes, not bothering to pay attention to her hypocritical flattery.

I have something to do in the morning, and it's 2 o'clock in the afternoon~(づ￣3￣)づ
