People are singing in the youth, a sword shocked Li Hanyi

He threw out a tael of silver and said, "Xiaoer, tell me something about the new city lord."

Xiaoer's eyes lit up, he quickly put away the money, and told about Zhao Qingfeng in an eloquent voice.

Chu Ye sorted it out carefully. Generally speaking, Zhao Qingfeng encountered many problems now.

For example, adopted son Zhao Hai curry favor with the forces in the city, intending to force Zhao Qingfeng to abdicate and allow himself to be the city lord of Linhuai City!

……

Chapter 23 Zhao Qingfeng's Dilemma, We Can Help You!

"Master, you pay so much attention to Zhao Qingfeng, could it be that he is our junior brother?" Chu Ye asked in surprise.

Nangong Muxue also stopped the chopsticks in her hand and looked at Chu Ye with the same doubt.

In order not to let her mouth be idle, she skillfully fed a mouthful of meat into her mouth.

"You will know when the time comes." Chu Ye smiled, but did not reveal.

But looking at the smile on Chu Ye's face, they already guessed something.

"Guest officer, is there anything else you want to ask?" Xiao Er didn't care what they said.

"How to get to the Zhao residence?" Chu Ye asked.

"The Zhao Mansion is not very far from here..." Xiaoer was obviously very familiar with the Zhao Mansion, and left after explaining the route.

Chu Ye thought to himself, it seems that this Zhao Qingfeng is the person he is looking for.

And the other party is still a city lord, but now he may not be able to keep his position as a city lord.

A city lord who has not gained power can't go far at all.

"Master, is that really our little junior brother?" Nangong Muxue asked when she was full.

"Yes."

"Then shall we help our little junior brother?" Li Xian seemed to have regarded Zhao Qingfeng who had never been trained as his junior brother.

"No hurry, we need to figure out the situation first." Chu Ye replied.

What's more, the most important thing for him is to solve the problem of apprenticeship first.

As for Zhao Qingfeng's matter, as a master, he will definitely help him.

"Master, why don't my junior sister and I go to Zhao's house first?" Li Xian suggested.

The master was so kind to him, he felt that at this time, he should do something for the master.

Nangong Muxue next to her also nodded. While visiting Zhao's house, she could also see if there was anything delicious.

"can."

Seeing Chu Ye nodding, Li Xian ate a few mouthfuls, then took Nangong Muxue out.

……

at this time.

Zhao House.

The city lord Zhao Qingfeng was sitting in the main seat, and the rest of the people were seated on the sides.

In the hall, someone glanced at Zhao Qingfeng on the main seat and said:

"Linhuai City is getting worse every day. It won't be long before Linhuai City is likely to become a deserted city."

"That's right, because of bandits, many merchants have left Linhuai City."

"If the bandits are not resolved for a day, we will never have peace in Linhuai City!"

……

In the hall, people spoke one after another, all pointing their finger at Zhao Qingfeng.

As the city lord, this is something he should solve.

And the man in Tsing Yi sitting on the left is Zhao Hai, the adopted son of the previous city lord.

He was drinking tea, as if the things in front of him had nothing to do with him.

Zhao Qingfeng sat on the chief seat and frowned, he knew all these questions, but...

He clenched his fists, feeling powerless in his heart.

Although his father, Zhao Shen, passed on the position of city lord to him, Linhuai City seemed to have changed after losing his father.

Linhuai City hasn't changed, what has changed is people's hearts.

and!

His father had raised his adopted son for more than 20 years, and he was secretly competing with him for the position of city lord!

Zhao Qingfeng hates it!

This Zhao Hai hides too deeply, he hates why he didn't find out earlier!

And this moment!

The only thing he can use is Uncle Gu by his side.

Uncle Gu watched him grow up and was the only person Zhao Qingfeng could trust.

"City Master, tell me, how to solve these problems?" Someone stood up and asked.

Zhao Qingfeng did not answer.

It's not that he doesn't want to go back, and the people who can use it now are all with Zhao Hai.

It's just bandits, there are still many masters in Linhuai City.

but!

He gave orders a few times, but those people didn't listen at all, they just ignored them.

This is why bandits are so rampant.

What's even more outrageous is, how could a group of mountain bandits break into Linhuai City?

obviously,

Someone cooperated with the inside and outside and deliberately let the bandits in.

Zhao Qingfeng also knew who was in charge of all this, but he didn't have anyone available around him, so he couldn't compete with him at all.

Not to mention Zhao Hai, he has no ability to solve those bandits alone.

"City Lord, if you can't solve these trivial matters, you might as well step aside." Someone said abruptly.

When Uncle Gu beside Zhao Qingfeng heard the words, his eyes froze, and his sharp eyes fell on the speaker.

The latter didn't dare to look directly, turned his head away, and pretended not to see it.

"Does the deputy city lord have any good ideas?" Zhao Qingfeng asked Zhao Hai, who was in high spirits.

He didn't ask for help, but wanted to see Zhao Hai's final attitude.

Zhao Hai shook his head, then said: "Everything depends on the orders of the city lord."

Zhao Qingfeng was silent.

obviously,

The other party is determined to become the city lord.

"I will solve the matter about bandits as soon as possible, let's do it for today."

As soon as Zhao Qingfeng finished speaking, everyone retreated.

What they have to do is to put pressure on Zhao Qingfeng and make him retreat in spite of the difficulties. This is also the way Zhao Hai taught them.

Outside the hall, everyone walked around Zhao Hai.

"Deputy City Lord, if the City Lord succeeds in suppressing the bandits, wouldn't all our previous efforts be wasted?" Someone asked in a low voice.

"He won't succeed." Zhao Hai smiled, with a confident look on his face.

Everyone was startled, and immediately thought of something.

How cruel!

Zhao Hai's thinking is that if Zhao Qingfeng dares to go out of the city to suppress the bandits, then he will never return.

After those people left, Zhao Qingfeng looked at Uncle Gu beside him and asked, "Uncle Gu, is there anyone here to sign up to suppress the bandits?"

Uncle Gu shook his head.

They used to announce the recruitment of people from all walks of life in the whole city, but now Linhuai City is different from the past.

Even if they can recruit a lot of people, their strength is relatively weak, and they can't repel the bandits at all.

"City Master, there are fewer and fewer people coming to Huai City recently. We have issued the notice for seven days, and we can't even recruit half of the people now."

Uncle Gu couldn't help but sighed and said.

not enough people

What about suppressing bandits? !

At this moment, a servant hurried into the hall.

"City Lord, there are two people who want to see you!"

"who is it?"

"I don't know, they claim to have a relationship with you."

"Fate with me?" Zhao Qingfeng's eyes paused for a moment, and after thinking about it, he said, "Bring them here."

The man backed away and quickly brought the two of them into the hall.

These two people were Li Xian and Nangong Muxue. When they came to the hall, they looked at Zhao Qingfeng who was seated in the main seat.

hansome!

Imposing!

Zhao Qingfeng was also looking at these two people, he didn't know why these two people came to him.

"You are?"

Li Xian said: "My name is Li Xian, this is my junior sister, Nangong Muxue."

"What do you guys want to see me for?" Zhao Qingfeng was so busy right now that he only saw them because of that predestined relationship.

"We can help you solve the problem of banditry." Li Xian planned to interest Zhao Qingfeng before tricking him into going to his master.

Zhao Qingfeng looked at these two boys and girls who were not much different from his age, with suspicion in his eyes.

"How can you help me?" Zhao Qingfeng asked suspiciously.

"It's easy to help you, but you have to meet someone with us first." Li Xian said.

"See who?"

"Meet our master." Nangong Muxue said.

……

Chapter 24 Calling for help, bandits arrive in a hurry

"Who is your master?"

Zhao Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, stared at them and asked.

"You'll know when the time comes."

Li Xian smiled.

Zhao Qingfeng was even more puzzled, and he asked again: "What fate are you talking about?"

"That's what Master told us, but I can't tell you yet." Nangong Muxue replied.

Zhao Qingfeng was silent.
