Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

Ying Yufu and Shangguan Fei were both amused and annoyed. Shangguan Fei said angrily, "I think this gentleman has the airs of an official. How can an official threaten us common people like this?"

Old Man Meng's mustache twitched, and he said unhappily, "Fine, I won't bother with you. Let's go our separate ways. You do your business, and it's none of your business to interfere in the affairs of the Meng family."

Having said that, he abruptly pulled down the curtain.

"No, Grandfather, we can't let them get away with this!" Meng Dongying protested, glaring angrily at Ying Yufu and Shangguan Fei, refusing to back down.

"Ying'er, get in the carriage. We need to continue our journey and not delay our trip," came the stern voice of Old Master Meng from inside the carriage.

Hearing her grandfather's unusually stern tone, Meng Dongying was unwilling, but she didn't want to delay the journey, so she glared coldly at Ying Yufu and Shangguan Fei, then turned and got into the carriage.

"Tch, ungrateful wretch." The maid glared at Ying Yufu and the other girl, bent down to pick up the silver from the ground, and turned to leave.

Ying Yufu and Shangguan Fei did not cause any more trouble. After this brief encounter, they could tell that the Meng family was not a kind family.

They retreated to the side of the road and continued on their way towards Anzhou, passing by the Meng family's convoy.

Ying Yufu, with her sharp eyes, noticed a young man lift the carriage curtain and stare intently at them the moment they passed each other.

"Master, are we just going to let them go like this? I think they're heading towards Anzhou. What if they find the Meng family's residence..."

Madam Meng's expression was serious.

Old Master Meng's eyes flickered, and he called out towards the outside of the carriage, "Han Chun!"

"Sir, what are your orders?" the head servant outside replied.

"Take the archers and return before that caravan. Kill them before they enter Anzhou City, and pretend they are bandits. Be clean in your deception."

Old Master Meng coldly gave the order.

"Yes, sir," Han Chun replied, and then he began to organize the servants.

"Hmph, that caravan brought this upon themselves, they have no reason to blame us!" Old Madam Meng sneered, her tone icy.

Old Master Meng said calmly, "Just because they know Meng Wanli, they are doomed to die."

In the other two carriages, the others also realized that the old man might be up to something.

Meng Dongpei flung open the curtain and looked outside. Seeing Han Chun leave with dozens of people, his expression changed slightly.

"Father, what is Grandfather going to do?" He stared at Master Meng.

Master Meng said, "It's just a matter of dealing with a few fools. Those who dared to interfere in Meng Wanli's affairs are already courting death."

Seeing how casually he spoke, Meng Dongpei clenched his fists tightly, and the color drained from his face.

In another carriage, Madam Meng and Meng Dongying were having a similar conversation. Meng Dongying said with a happy expression, "I knew Grandfather wouldn't let them off the hook!"

"Hmph, daring to cause me trouble, simply killing them would be too lenient."

After walking about ten miles, Ying Yufu's expression suddenly changed.

Her senses were sharp, and she noticed the unusual atmosphere immediately.

"Let's stop, this road is blocked," Ying Yufu said.

Everyone looked at her, puzzled.

Xiao Dian stood up on Ying Yufu's shoulder and looked up at the front.

Similarly, Xiao Long complained to the Crown Prince, "I never expected the Meng family to have such a ruthless method of self-destruction. Host, they've sent people to intercept and kill you!"

The crown prince's gaze darkened.

What a Meng Huaran!

Yu Li's eyes darkened, and she said, "Flying Tiger Army, prepare for battle and take down the enemy!"

The Flying Tigers soldiers, disguised as merchants, immediately turned their eyes cold and became alert to their surroundings.

Ahead of them, to their left and right, came faint rustling sounds, and at the same time, arrows gleaming with an eerie light emerged from the grass, aimed at them.

Ying Yufu and Shangguan Fei exchanged a glance, both of them with murderous intent in their eyes.

They had only gone forward to test the waters, yet the Meng family wanted to kill them to silence them. Such ruthless methods are truly astonishing.

Who knows whether marrying into such a ruthless family will bring fortune or misfortune to the Duke of Zhenguo's family?

Shangguan Fei gripped her spear tightly, ready for battle.

Just then, a deep roar of a beast rang out from the dense forest on both sides of the official road.

Immediately afterwards, screams of agony echoed from the dense forest.

The arrows aimed at them fell to the ground.

Soon, the archers lying in ambush in the dense forest and ahead launched their attack.

However, instead of attacking Ying Yufu and the others, they headed towards a group of lions that had suddenly appeared.

To their astonishment, after they fired their arrows, the lions defiantly stuck out their rear ends at them.

Their arrows struck the lions' hindquarters with a clanging sound, as if they were hitting steel, and sparks flew everywhere.

The servants of the Meng family were filled with great fear.

In their panic, they frantically drew their arrows and fired until all the arrows in their quiver were gone.

The pride of lions slowly surrounded them.

"Roar—" Damn bad guys, how dare they ambush the Goddess!

"Lord Hanchun, what should we do? What should we do? We are no match for these lions!" A servant was sweating profusely and had lost control of his bladder in fear.

Han Chun raised his eyes and looked at Ying Yufu and the others on the official road. A sinister look flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Lead the lion pack onto the official road."

They immediately headed towards the main road.

When Ying Yufu and her group saw the Meng family guards deliberately approaching them, as well as the lion pride chasing after them, they understood everything.

However, Ying Yufu recognized the lions, and she understood why the pride was attacking the Meng family.

The lions are standing up for her.

"What wonderful lions! I didn't waste my time modifying their butts!" Ying Yufu exclaimed.

Han Chun looked at Ying Yufu and the others, putting on a fake expression, and said, "Gentlemen, we were chased here by these lions and have no other choice but to ask for your help!"

As he spoke, he tried to approach a Flying Tiger soldier.

A cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Flying Tiger soldier, and he kicked him into the lion pride.

Han Chun was stunned; immense fear overwhelmed him, and he let out a deafening scream.

"ah--"

Upon seeing this, the lions immediately began to nudge him around like a ball, one after another.

Han Chun soon had disheveled hair, and her clothes were torn to shreds, a pitiful sight.

"roar!"

The lion king walked towards Ying Yufu, bent down his forelegs, and greeted her.

"Roar—" Goddess, these people have ill intentions. Do they want us to kill them?

Ying Yufu smiled at him and said, "No need, just teach them a lesson."

It's best to deal with these people thoroughly once we return to the capital.

The lion king obeyed and gave the command to his companions: "Roar—"

My men, the goddess said we don't need to kill them, just teach them a lesson!

The lions' eyes lit up, and they started kicking the Meng family's servants around like balls.

Han Chun's eyes were filled with stars. In his daze, he seemed to see that the lions not only did not attack the merchants, but also... were very obedient to them?
