Carrying Su Yuanyuan on their backs, the two of them went out every day in recent days. They pretended to stroll around the city nonchalantly, but in fact they were inquiring about the news of the Prince of Cang County's Mansion and Cang Xuan's whereabouts.
However, no matter how they inquired, they found that the gate of the Prince of Cang County's Mansion remained tightly closed all the time. Cang Xuan had actually stayed behind closed doors ever since he was attacked on Yandang Mountain that day.
After making inquiries, they learned that Cang Xuan had actually announced to the outside world that he was going into "seclusion" and had even obtained permission not to go to court. This made the two brothers, who were planning to take revenge on Cang Xuan, feel extremely depressed.
However, Su Huaisheng was quick-witted. He soon came up with another way of revenge.
Under the cold moonlight, beside the wall of the Prince of Cang County's Mansion, two figures were rustling. One stepped on the other and was propped up high, climbing onto the wall of the mansion.
Only a series of deliberately lowered voices came from there.
"Third brother, how about it? Can you reach it? Can you see clearly what's going on inside?"
"Second brother, you need to be higher... Right, right, move a bit to the left."
That's right. The two people who were stacked on top of each other trying to climb the wall of the Prince of Cang County's Mansion were Su Huayuan and Su Huaisheng.
"Second brother, you need to be higher. I can't reach it, brother."
Hearing Su Huaisheng's complaint, Su Huayuan could only try his best to stand on tiptoe to make his body higher, but his legs had already started to tremble.
Although he was extremely powerful and a good material for practicing martial arts, the other person was after all a man about the same as him. He would get tired if he supported him for too long.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Hurry up! I can't hold on anymore!"
Su Huaisheng on top was holding a hemp sack in his hand, and something inside the sack was struggling desperately. There was a mischievous glint in Su Huaisheng's eyes. Seeing the edge of the wall right in front of him, his breathing quickened with excitement.
Humph, you scoundrel! First, you made improper moves and flirtatious remarks to his younger sister. Then you made his younger sister make a fool of herself in front of so many people. If he didn't teach you a good lesson, you would really think you were something.
Since this scoundrel stayed behind closed doors all day long, he would just add some "spices" to his life.
His hand touched the edge of the wall. Su Huaisheng struggled to climb a bit higher. Just as he was about to throw the hemp sack in his hand into the Prince of Cang's Mansion, he heard a whistling sound in the air. He felt a great sense of crisis.
He instinctively stepped back, narrowly avoiding two crossbow arrows that shot from nowhere. But because of this, the human ladder shook. Su Huayuan could no longer support him and let go.
With a thud, the human ladder "broke" in the middle. The two brothers fell on the ground, sprawling in all directions.
Su Huaisheng didn't hold on tightly enough, and the hemp sack in his hand fell to the side. The mouth of the sack wasn't tightly tied in the first place. After this fall, it became loose, and the things inside the sack escaped and rushed straight towards the two brothers.
Su Huaisheng and Su Huayuan were so scared that they quickly flipped up and dodged the things running out of the sack in a hurry.
"Damn it, third brother! Do you want to kill your second brother?"
"I didn't mean to! Who would have thought that this scoundrel's mansion would be equipped with traps! I just poked my head out, and I triggered the trap. I almost got hurt by the crossbow arrows shot from inside!"
"Stop talking! Kill these things quickly!"
It was not easy for the two brothers to kill all the poisonous insects in the sack. They were already sweating profusely from exhaustion.
The two squatted on the wall root. Their figures were submerged in the night, and they both let out a sigh.
"Never would I have thought that this scoundrel would be so vigilant and set up such traps in his mansion."
Su Huaisheng snorted, "Isn't it because this scoundrel plays with power and has become a thorn in the side of others? I'm sure it's because too many people want to assassinate him, so he's so vigilant."
Su Huayuan nodded in agreement, "You're right."
The most depressing thing is not that the opponent is too powerful, but that the opponent doesn't play by the rules, making it impossible for others to figure out.
"Third brother, do you think this scoundrel knows he's in the wrong and is afraid of us, so he doesn't dare to go out and show his face?" Su Huayuan asked again.
Su Huaisheng also scratched his head depressingly, "I don't know either."
Today's operation failed because of the traps in the Prince of Cang County's Mansion. The two brothers were extremely frustrated, but they were not willing to leave like this. Coincidentally or not, they heard a series of footsteps coming from afar.
The two brothers glanced at each other and hid their figures deeper, observing the situation outside.
After a while, they saw a familiar person walking past on the road outside.
This familiar person was not Cang Xuan, the target they were planning to take revenge on, but Su Zeqian, the heir of the Marquis of Pingyang.
They didn't expect that they couldn't take revenge on Cang Xuan smoothly tonight, but they ran into another "enemy". Wasn't this a sign from heaven?
Su Huayuan and Su Huaisheng glanced at each other, and they both saw the mischievous glint in each other's eyes.
This heir of the Marquis of Pingyang had also bullied their younger sister before. He had almost let the fire from the eternal lamp in Foxing Temple burn Su Yuanyuan. Compared with Cang Xuan, Su Zeqian's actions were even more despicable.
Since they couldn't catch that scoundrel Cang Xuan and couldn't send "gifts" into the Prince of Cang County's Mansion, they might as well take Su Zeqian as a target first.
The two brothers exchanged a look with great understanding. Su Huaisheng waved the hemp sack in his hand and signaled to Su Huayuan.
Su Huayuan made a gesture, and then he used his lightness kung fu to float behind Su Zeqian.
He deliberately made some noise, and sure enough, it attracted Su Zeqian's attention.
Su Zeqian, who had failed to meet Cang Xuan again today and was planning to go home, looked solemn. He stopped in his tracks, turned around with his servant, and looked behind him very warily.
However, he didn't see anything.
Frowning, just as Su Zeqian was about to turn back and continue on his way home, the servant beside him rolled his eyes and slumped to the ground. And suddenly, it went dark in front of his eyes. It seemed that something had been put over his head.
Before he could react and take countermeasures, he felt a series of punches and kicks coming at him.
Who was it? Who on earth! How dare they treat the heir of the Marquis of Pingyang like this!
He didn't know who the other side was. They never said a word from beginning to end. They just mercilessly punched and kicked Su Zeqian.
It seemed that they were very familiar with the human body structure and knew where it would hurt the most. Their punches and kicks all targeted the painful parts of Su Zeqian's body. Moreover, the wound on Su Zeqian's back, which was whipped by the ruler when he was scolded by the Marquis of Pingyang before, hadn't fully healed yet. Their punches and kicks tugged at his old wound, and the wound tore open. Su Zeqian was in so much pain that his eyes went black. He curled up on the ground like a dead dog and completely lost the chance to speak.
