Chapter 17
Lu Xiang shouted: "Don't talk nonsense."

After shouting, Lu Xiang regained his composure and said, "Shen Luo, it doesn't matter if you have people from all over the world helping you? So what if you are an imperial court official? You won't be able to see the sun tomorrow."

Lu Xiang struggled to get up, looked at the foggy sky, looked at the two lanterns floating outside the inn, and said with a smile, "You guys can't escape if you make such a big commotion tonight."

"Hahaha" Lu Xiang laughed wildly, dragged himself to break his right arm, and said loudly, "There are two red lanterns hanging outside the inn. As long as they don't go out on time at night, my people will know that something happened here."

"Now those Jiang Hu people are gone, and there is no one around you to use. With you alone, can you escape?"

As the words fell, more than a hundred men in black appeared outside the room and surrounded the inn, and the leading dozen rushed into the inn to protect Lu Xiang behind them.

Xie Yunsheng saw more than a dozen men in black appearing in front of Shen Luo, pushed Zhang Liao and walked down the stairs to Shen Luo, but Zhang Liao had no time to stop them.

Shen Luo looked at Xie Yunsheng who suddenly stood beside her, and said, "Who told you to come down, didn't I tell you to stay up there?"

Xie Yunsheng said: "If they attack you, how can they let me know the truth?"

"I'm a person who never evades when things happen. Even if I meet a strong enemy, I will fight to the death instead of just sitting around." Xie Yunsheng walked to Shen Luo's side and said loudly: "Don't try to push me away. You will never be able to push me away in this life." Don't even think about it!"

Is this person a cow?Why is your temper so hard!
Shen Luo had never seen such a stubborn person before, she was helpless for a while, she took a deep breath, and looked at Lu Xiang: "Just because of these men in black, you want to kill me?"

She paced forward and said, "Do you think that just because I am the fugitives pursued by bounty hunters, His Majesty can issue seven imperial decrees in a row to dig a government office for me and build a Beizhen government secretary, and let me be Situ Yi?" Job?"

Shen Luo looked at the man in black, untied his bag with one hand and took out his long sword, and looked at the man in front of him: "I assist the local garrison to suppress bandits, and I am best at team battles."

Seeing the unsheathed long sword in Shen Luo's hand, the man in black felt more fear in his heart and looked at the people beside him, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.

"What are you doing here?" Lu Xiang kicked the man in black and shouted loudly, "Go!"

"Kill!" The man in black was kicked, and rushed towards Shen Luo with a murderous look.

"Swoosh..." A long arrow flew out from nowhere behind, piercing the heart and lungs of the black-clothed man.

"Lord Situ, the future is too late!" Not far away, a black-faced general in armor and battle robe was riding on a horse. He put down his long bow and announced loudly.

"Heh..." The thick voice resounded throughout the inn, and countless soldiers behind them surrounded the inn with spears.

When had Lu Xiang and the man in black seen such a battle, their hands were shaking with fright.

The black-faced general reined in to make way for the general behind him: "General Xu, please."

"General Zhou please." Xu Xiao dismounted, followed by the black-faced general Zhou Ling.

The two looked at Xie Yunsheng who was beside Shen Luo, and their pupils dilated instantly: Your Royal Highness.

Zhang Liaokuang waved his hands to stop the two generals from saluting, and said wittily, "See the two generals."

Xie Yunsheng stood beside Shen Luo, silent, as if he didn't know the two of them.

The two immediately understood each other, and came to Shen Luo one after the other: "See Mr. Shen!"

"General Zhou." Shen Luo returned the salute politely, then looked at Xu Xiao, and asked, "Why did General Xu come to Licheng with General Zhou when he was stationed in Yecheng?"

Zhou Ling received his order to bring three hundred cavalry to encircle and suppress the inn.Why is Xu Xiao here?
Xu Xiao is the son of the Crown Prince Taifu Xu Da, who was ordered to station in Yecheng, how could he go with Zhou Ling.

Xu Xiao immediately explained: "Hunting in autumn, I happened to pass by General Zhou's camp and met Mr. Shen borrowing troops from General Zhou, so I followed him on impulse."

"My lord, please don't blame the general for being reckless." Xu Xiao bowed again with sharp eyes and quick hands.

Last night, he suddenly received a letter from His Royal Highness Fei Ge, asking him to lead a thousand elite soldiers to Zhou Ling's camp in Ye City overnight.

As soon as he arrived, Lord Situ's secret order arrived, and he immediately understood the reason why the crown prince asked him to go to the camp in Yecheng without any hesitation and followed him with a thousand elite soldiers.

It's just that he didn't expect His Royal Highness to be with Shen Situ.

Could it be that His Highness is against Shen Situ...! ?

"Shen Luo, you despicable villain can't beat us and even transferred troops into the city?" Lu Xiang looked at Shen Luo and asked, "Do you know that transferring troops into the city without permission is a capital offense?"

Shen Luo looked at Lu Xiang, and explained: "I am the Situ of the Beizhen Prefecture. Your Majesty has granted me the command of all the soldiers and horses to help me handle the case. There is no such thing as private transfer of troops."

"I'm not mistaken, you are not an ordinary person." Shen Luo asked with a smile: "How can an ordinary shopkeeper be so familiar with Jiang Guo's laws?"

"Say, who are you?" Shen Luo's complexion changed suddenly, and he asked in a cold voice.

"Where did the generals dare to transfer troops into the city without permission?" A thick voice suddenly came from outside the door, and two middle-aged men in official clothes broke in.

Zhang Kang struggled to step out of the room and happened to see such a scene, and couldn't help but marvel: What happened?Why is it like a hodgepodge, so many people came?
Shen Luo was wearing a bright red official robe, with a jade belt bestowed by His Majesty on his waist, and a crimson whitebait bag that could only be worn by officials of the third rank. The two of them immediately guessed the identity of the person in front of them, and immediately knelt down : "The next official sees Sir Situ."

Shen Luo silently looked at the two of them, and then said: "Get up!"

The two thanked immediately: "Thank you, sir."

"I don't know when my lord arrived in Licheng, why didn't you send someone to pass it on, so that the next official can show his kindness as a landlord." Governor Jiang Guangwen replied flatteringly.

"Yes, my lord." Prefect Yang Zhaoxi echoed softly.

"I was just passing by, and I didn't expect to end up in a black shop. This black shop is doing business on the surface, but secretly engaged in human trafficking." Shen Luo looked at the two people in front of him, and said: "You, as an imperial court official, did not How can you be worthy of being an official if you don't notice it at all?"

"I know my mistake." The two knelt down again to plead guilty.

Shen Luo looked at the two of them and questioned, "This inn is only a few miles away from the government, and they are hiding under your noses. Tell me, which of you two is the person behind this inn?"

Yang Zhaoxi and Jiang Guangwen raised their eyes and looked at Shen Luo with surprise: "What do you mean by this, my lord? How can we, as court officials, work hand in hand with thieves?"

Shen Luo looked at the two and said with a smile, "Because you have the same hatred in your heart!"

She sat down slowly, and then said: "I found something strange yesterday and ordered someone to investigate the past of the shopkeeper of this inn."
