Chapter 775: Chapter 776: The Matchmaker Comes to the Door (5)_1

These soldiers had it hard, traveling thousands of miles to fight here in this barren land, suffering injuries. Even though they no longer had to eat moldy food now, they had been eating badly in the past few days. It was only right to give them a good meal now.

Having prepared a large pile of food, Cai Wei called for Chai Feng.

"Hey, call in some soldiers from the Firehead Camp, have them take these food out and let everyone have a good meal!"

Chai Feng’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets, his tongue tied as he stared at the pile of wild chickens, wild rabbits, live fish, cabbage, and other food. It took him a while to remember the tales told by Master Li Guo, the fabled Fu You Island... Could it really exist within this girl’s power?

Yes, after the night the Sky Mechanism had been destroyed, he had seen her in favor, mounting an enormous white tiger that appeared out of nowhere, leaving Qingyun Town at such speed it was almost invisibly fast. This girl must be extraordinary. In this regard, she was a match for his master!

With a complex expression, Chai Feng left. Not long after, he came back with some soldiers from the Firehead Camp to move the food. The soldiers, who usually ate potatoes and cabbage, were overjoyed at the sight of the meat. Even the heavy pile of meat no longer seemed burdensome.

Not long after the soldiers left, cheers erupted outside the tent, making Cai Wei smile. Being able to provide these young soldiers with a proper meal, and at the same time winning their hearts, the food was well worth it.

Meanwhile, in Guangling’s prince’s mansion in the capital city, a servant ran hurriedly into the courtyard of Nangong Jin, the crown prince of Guangling. Upon meeting the young master, he immediately knelt down and said, "Young master, the news from the outside has been confirmed. The head lady of the Mu Family is indeed the woman who was chosen to be the old master’s concubine. The concubine of the Duke An’s Mansion fled her arranged marriage and married Scholar Mu, giving birth to three or four children. Their eldest daughter was the one who was recently titled Princess An Le by His Majesty. Young master, you have taken a liking to their second daughter, named Mu Caifei. Now, the Second Miss Mu goes to the Mu family’s shop every day, both to help look after the shop and to learn the art of embroidery from a master whom she respects."

"Good, turns out they were acquaintances!"

Before the servant finished speaking, Nangong Jin laughed with gritted teeth, "I didn’t expect this family to have so much connection with our Guangling royal family. Since Lady Du had abandoned her marriage to the old master, we can now make use of her daughter as compensation!"

The servant continued, "Master, I also found out that the late Princess An Le was a favorite of His Highness King Qin. Furthermore, the Mu Family is not without support. Young Master Huo is currently protecting them."

Hearing about Huo Yuan, Nangong Jin’s buoyant mood instantly dropped, like a defeated rooster. Now that the Crown Prince was disabled, King Jing was likely to become the next crown prince. Although Nangong Jin didn’t fear Huo Yuan, he was worried that once King Jing ascended the throne, he would avenge his only relative, Huo Yuan.

"Damn!"

In annoyance, Nangong Jin slammed his fist on the table, causing the teacup on it to jump, spilling tea all over the place.

Seeing his master in a fit, the servant hurriedly suggested, "Master, I also heard that this Second Miss Mu has been living in a manor near the Royal Hunting Ground in the suburbs of the capital, and every day she and her scholar father travel by carriage to the city, then return there in the evening."

"Is that true?"

Greatly pleased, Nangong Jin thought if it was true, they just needed a few men to ambush her scholar father and the coachman on the way, then kidnap the young beauty. Who would worry about her flying away then? Wouldn’t she be at his disposal?
