Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 217: Chapter 209: Snowstorm Ambush

Inside Chongshan Pass, in a luxurious inn.

Su Bai stood with utmost respect in front of a middle-aged man.

“Second Young Master, it’s confirmed; Changping Marquis Mansion indeed intends to form a marriage alliance with the Yang family. During the recent birthday banquet, the Marchioness had already hinted at this intention, and these past few days, there has been correspondence between Marquis Changping and Yang Zhenshan. They appear to be discussing the marriage details!”

Su Bai said with humble compliance.

The middle-aged man in front of him was none other than Su Shanyu, the second son of Marquis Jingyuan Mansion.

Su Shanyu was somewhat portly, his face flecked with flesh, and his eyes brimmed with violence; one could tell at a glance that he was not someone to be trifled with.

He was fiddling with a string of jade beads in his hand and said in an indifferent tone, “Stop them!”

The Crown Prince intended for the Ning Qing’s family from Marquis Jingyuan Mansion to form a marriage alliance with Changping Marquis Mansion, which is why Miss Ning Qing of Marquis Jingyuan Mansion came to Chongshan Pass.

However, it was not Jingyuan Mansion’s responsibility but theirs to facilitate this union.

That’s right, Marquis Jingyuan Mansion had long pledged allegiance to the Crown Prince, and Su Shanyu’s purpose here was to assist the marriage alliance between Marquis Jingyuan Mansion and Changping Marquis Mansion.

But now that Liang Chu had chosen the Yang family, he naturally couldn’t sit idly by.

“This… Second Young Master, how should we stop them?” Su Bai asked cautiously.

Su Shanyu abruptly raised his head, fierce light shooting from his eyes, “Do I need to think of a plan for you?”

“Yes, this subordinate understands. I will find a way to prevent their union!” Su Bai quivered in fear and hastily responded.

He knew all too well the temper of the master he served.

Ruthless and cruel, one who could harm lives if slightly displeased.

Although he was a trusted confidant of Marquis Jingyuan, he dared not anger this Young Master.

Continuing to twirl his prayer beads, Su Shanyu’s tone returned to its earlier calm, “Since the Yang family wishes to wed into Changping Marquis Mansion, we shall turn this joyous occasion into a funeral. Find an opportunity to kill the Yang family’s young Miss!”

“Killing a young girl, that should be within your capabilities, right?”

He looked indifferently at Su Bai.
