Chapter 215

"Hand over the Yaochi County Lord!"

"Hand over it!"

"If you don't hand it over, don't blame us for being rude!"

"You're welcome--"

The sound outside the city lord's mansion was deafening.

Xiao Hongshen sat in the hall with a pale face, looking at the man in the wheelchair with cold eyes.

"Ji Yuntai, you are so courageous!"

Ji Yuntai's gaze was firm and he did not back down at all.

"The matter has come to this, and I hope His Highness can put the people first and hand over the Lord of Yaochi County to appease the army. Otherwise, the soldiers will never let this matter go."

"How dare you! At present, there is no evidence to prove that it was Yaochi who did it. Ji Yuntai Changkuan, you want to turn against him?" Xiao Hongshen slapped the table violently and scolded in a low voice.

He just came back from outside when he was blocked at the gate of the city by a group of soldiers.

If Chang Kuan hadn't come to pick him up in person, he might not even be able to get in.

This made him very angry.

For a mere Yan Wanqing, he was blocked outside the city gate.

This tone has been blocked all the way until now.

Chang Qianhu saw that the Seventh Prince's expression was not good, and the city lord was punished by the Seventh Prince because of the affairs of the Yaochi county lord.

It's just that all the soldiers have searched around Xiliang City for several times, and the land is about to be dug out, but there is no news at all.

In order not to be detected by the Japanese pirates' spies, they deliberately said that they were searching for thieves.

As a result, someone brought Yan Wanqing's saber over just now.

Now, Chang Kuan couldn't take it anymore.

He thought of the grievances between the county lord of Yaochi and Yan Wanqing before, so he consulted with the city lord, and the two hit it off and came here.

"Yes or no, just ask the county magistrate to come out and say a few words. As long as the county magistrate says no, then we will leave immediately." Chang Qianhu stood still and refused to flinch.

Ji Yuntai continued to speak: "We are not ignorant people, as long as His Highness allows the county magistrate to come out and say something, then this matter will come to a conclusion, but now the county magistrate has been reluctant to show up, could it be that he did it? Don't you dare to come forward because of your heart?"

When Xiao Hongshen heard this, his eyes were full of murderous intent: "Ji Yuntai, don't forget your identity! Right now, Yaochi has just had a miscarriage and is still in confinement. Wouldn't it be difficult for you to let her come out to see you?"

His Xiao Hongshen's woman is a group of reckless people like them, who can see them whenever they want?

If this gets out, where will his face be put!
Besides, if something happened to Yan Wanqing.

Then the position of Commander of the Western Expedition belongs to Xiao Hongshen. Compared with finding Yan Wanqing, he hopes that this woman will die outside.

Ji Yuntai saw Xiao Hongshen's complexion changed again and again, and his hand on the wheelchair clenched slightly into a fist.

"Between the screen? The disappearance of Yan Shuai is such a big deal that concerns the comfort of the entire Xiliang City. If Japanese pirates take this opportunity to enter our city, they won't care who just had a miscarriage and is in confinement!"

As soon as these words were said, Chang Qianhu next to him was frightened.

The city lord, who has always been calm and self-sufficient, would actually say such outrageous words to His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince.

If word spreads, how many heads he has are enough to chop off!

Besides, the Seventh Prince is a strong contender for the crown prince right now, if he really ascends to the throne in the future, according to his small stomach, Ji Yuntai will definitely not be able to accommodate him in the future.

Chang Qianhu was sweating coldly beside him.

But Ji Yuntai stared at Xiao Hongshen with scorching eyes, without giving in at all.

Xiao Hong pursed his thin lips deeply, his feminine face was full of coldness: "Ji Yuntai, for a Yan Wanqing, are you going to do this!"

"This minister is for the sake of the entire people of Xiliang City, and I hope His Highness will call the county master out to ask a question." Ji Yuntai did not retreat at all, and his tone could already be called tough.

Xiao Hong sneered deeply: "You were frightened when you became the main hall."

His body was completely leaned back, and the majesty of the royal family could be seen at a glance.

"Yaochi County Lord directly killed the rules of Weichen's mansion when he first came to Xiliang City, which ruined Xiliang City's geomantic omen for decades. I wonder if His Highness has heard about geomantic omen?" Ji Yuntai said suddenly.

Xiao Hongshen didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd: "For a maid, do you want Yaochi county master to pay for his life?"

"It's Fengshui. Does His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince know why the Japanese pirates captured no less than five surrounding cities with such force, but they always stop at Xiliang City?" Ji Yuntai's eyes had an incomprehensible mystery.

With that said, things started to get a little mysterious.

Xiao Hong snorted coldly: "Stop messing around with these ghostly things, this palace will definitely not hand over Yaochi to you today."

"It doesn't matter if Your Highness doesn't believe this, the people of Xiliang City firmly believe in it." Ji Yuntai said.

Xiao Hongshen is a smart person, otherwise he wouldn't have progressed step by step from a downcast prince born out of a maidservant.

He heard Ji Yuntai's threat.

Being able to be the city lord of Xiliang City for decades, and being loved and supported by the people, Ji Yuntai's prestige is much deeper than that of the prince from Kyoto.

Last time he took advantage of Li Chengyuan's matter and whipped Ji Yuntai to give him a warning.

Tell him that no matter how strong a dragon is, he can't overwhelm a local snake, and that he, Xiao Hongshen, is also the emperor's son, the current Seventh Prince.

It's just that he didn't expect that Ji Yuntai would say such words to him only two days after the incident,

"It seems that the injury on the city lord's body is almost healed."

Xiao Hongshen glanced at Ji Yuntai up and down, and said quietly.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. It's almost healed." Ji Yuntai smiled like a spring breeze in March.

Two people, you and me, talking back and forth.

Chang Qianhu next to him felt the light of swords and blood in the hall, sending chills down his spine.

At this time, Yan Wanqing's long sword was placed on the table in the middle of the hall.

An unpretentious and unremarkable long sword, the body of the sword is much longer than ordinary long swords, but the owner of the sword is able to play with it, making it unforgettable at a glance.

"Your Highness—" Chang Qianhu suddenly knelt on the ground.

Xiao Hongshen's complexion suddenly turned livid.

Chang Qianhu's eyes were scarlet: "For this Western Expedition, Yan Shuai went out early and returned late to lead the soldiers to train. Now that she has no news, the soldiers are already suspicious. If the military spirit that has finally been condensed is scattered at this moment, what will happen to the soldiers this time?" Conquest must be defeated!"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Hongshen directly hit Chang Qianhu with a slap.

"Bold, those who dare to confuse the crowd with evil words and disturb the morale of the army will be punished! Chang Kuan, don't you want to die!"

Chang Qianhu slammed heavily against the pillars in the house, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

He wiped the corners of his lips with the back of his hand, knelt down on the ground again, his gaze firm.

The city lord can still defy power for the sake of Yan Shuai and the people of Xiliang City.

Then he can be Chang Kuan!

"Everything my subordinate said is true. If I don't see the Yaochi County Lord today, tomorrow my subordinate will bring tens of thousands of soldiers and come to His Highness personally to ask for an answer!"

If you don't hand over Li Chengyuan, then don't blame them for being rude!

Chang Qianhu's spine was straight.

Xiao Hong looked deeply at Ji Yuntai and Chang Kuan.

"Good, good, good! Both of you are very good!" The words have reached this point.

Xiao Hongshen finally let go: "Send someone to call Yaochi over."

The servant girl took the order and left.

Xiao Hongshen's complexion became even more gloomy: "This matter, this hall will not let it go."

"If there is nothing to do with the county master at this time, I am willing to bear all the consequences." Ji Yuntai's loud words followed closely behind.

Seeing this, Chang Qianhu said, "Subordinates too!"
