Chapter 20 I dont know how high the sky is and how high it is
"The spy you sent out was killed on the spot?" He thought for a moment, "That harrier demon has been following Ah Hao for many years, always landing on his shoulder. I even fed it with my own hands."
"It was tortured to death." Hearing his father call the harrier demon a "spy," He Lingchuan was convinced that it would not just be treated as a little monster. "Nian Songyu and Sun Guoshi must know from its mouth that it is I sent them out."
He cannot fight alone and must remember that his father is his solid backing.
If my father, who is an official and has power, can't do it, he can't do it either.
He Chunhua said calmly: "It's just a kite. If it dies, it will die. What's the big deal?" He picked up the pen and continued writing.
He Lingchuan was startled: "Dad!"
He did not expect He Chunhua's reaction, so he quickly persuaded:
"They clearly have a request from the He Mansion, they clearly know that Xiao Hui was sent out by me, they clearly know that this is just a small misunderstanding, but they still squeeze it to death!"
He pounded the table lightly, and the four treasures in the study all jumped up, "Dad, these two people don't take our family seriously at all. They think they can make it round if they want to, and flatten it if they want. They want us to bow our heads. He can’t bark while he’s working!”
"Sun Fuping is a great national master who has been favored by heaven, and I am just a county guard in a barbaric land. This is a huge difference. In normal times, he would make a round shape when he wanted to, flatten it when he wanted to, and then I'll crush you to death with another little finger, otherwise how can we call it strict hierarchy?" He Chunping smiled instead of getting angry, "You have been comfortable in Blackwater City for too long, and you don't know the superiority and inferiority of the people, and you don't know how high the sky is and how high it is!"
When he spoke the last few words, his tone was solemn.
It would be a lie to say that they are not depressed, because the other party looks down on them from the bottom of their hearts.
I pinched your spies to death, and you still have to work for me and die for me!
Yes, that's how superior he is to others.
However, even if the official rank is overwhelming, Sun Guoshi still came here with the king's orders on his back. What can he do, Commander He?
He Lingchuan was dissatisfied: "But Uncle Hao..."
"Those who are inferior to others must accept their fate!" He Chunhua frowned, "He can't think about it?" He is already dozens of years old.
He Lingchuan decisively changed the subject: "You also said, that's normal!"
"Complain less, be less clever, and think more of solutions." He Chunhua put down his pen and stood up, tapping his eldest son on the forehead. "But we can't just be passive. After all, this is still the territory of the He family. What do you think? Say, how do you want to call me?"
"It's better to let the second brother come up with ideas. He has a lot of clever ideas, but as I see it -" He Lingchuan sneered, "Even if you have to do things for them in the end, you might as well start by dragging your feet and kill their arrogance. Who knows the exact whereabouts of the sand leopard relics except ourselves? Besides, they killed our people...well, monsters, isn't there a price?"
"The price?" He Chunhua smiled and felt these two words enter his heart, "It makes sense."
The eldest son has grown up, and he is a little happy.
"By the way, those two guards from Donglai Mansion?" He Lingchuan knew that He Chunhua originally planned to let these two people go.
"Leave it alone." He Chunhua also said lightly, "Let's talk about it in a few days. They don't care anyway."
Nian and Sun are concerned about the whereabouts of the token, Donglai Mansion is concerned about the square pot, and the guards themselves are unimportant.

At the dinner that day, both parties were chatting and laughing, and the host and guest had a great time.
Taking advantage of the drunkenness, He Chunhua almost patted his chest and promised that he would definitely find the pass to the Panlong Desert.
Then ten hours passed.
Of course, Nian Songyu felt that time was passing like a year and urged her once. While He Chunhua admitted that he had achieved nothing, he once again promised that he would go all out.
This time, he sent people to Blackwater City, pretended to put up notices, and searched the entire city.
Very good attitude, very poor efficiency.
Of course, such a search will definitely yield no results.
The advantage of the He family is time, they are not in a hurry.
The dignified Imperial Master finally couldn't sit still and went to visit him together with Nian Songyu. Unfortunately, Governor He was out of town, so he had to let his second son He Yue entertain the guests.
When the two of them saw He Yue, their eyes lit up, and they were full of compliments. Especially after Nian Songyu chatted with He Yue for a few words, it seemed that they had met so late, even saying, "You and I are of the same age, we might as well communicate more in the future."
The words came out.
He Lingchuan took a sip of tea. Speaking of age, he and Nian Songyu were closer, right? How could this guy say it so shamelessly? The second brother had a good face and was always more likable than him, but these two
Is the performance a bit exaggerated?
He Yue was writing a formality according to his father's request: "Everyone in Blackwater City has been mobilized. However, as the Hongya Commercial Road is closed, the passenger flow in and out of the city has greatly increased, and the mix of fish and dragons has made our search task more difficult."
He Lingchuan was afraid that his second son would suffer a loss, so he sat aside to accompany him. He only saw that this boy was extremely sincere on the surface, but in fact he looked very indifferent, and he looked very much like his father He Chunhua.
Nian Songyu was impatient and didn't bother to be polite to them anymore: "Then close the city gate and search! This matter is related to the fate of the country. What does it matter if the city is closed for a few days?"
"No way." He Yue smiled bitterly, "The Baling Kingdom envoy will arrive at Blackwater City in the next two days and then return westward. This is their last chance to return to the country this year. Once delayed, I am afraid it will cause a major conflict between the two countries.
Misunderstand!"
He paused: "The Baling Kingdom has always been eyeing the big kite, and there have been many border conflicts. They are worried that they have no excuse."
Nian Songyu laughed angrily: "So, Blackwater City cannot be closed, or will it trigger a border war?"
"It's very possible!" He Yue said firmly, "Qiansong County cannot afford it!"
Sun Fuping couldn't bear to see them arguing with each other and wasting time, so he simply opened the screen window to explain: "I heard that Mr. He was injured and was kept behind closed doors for forty or fifty days?"
"Yeah, it almost killed me." He Lingchuan drank tea for a long time, and the topic finally turned to himself. He opened his clothes and exposed the injury on his neck. "Look."
At that time, the sand leopard bit him hard on the neck. Although the wound has healed now, it still leaves a tear-shaped scar, which shows that he was in critical condition that day.
Nian Songyu stared at the scar: "Where did this injury come from?"
"This is when I went to Hulu Mountain..." He Lingchuan said this, as if he was stunned, "Hey, where did Lieutenant Nian hear that I was seriously injured? Not many people know about this."
Nian Songyu said without thinking: "I got it from my subordinates. As you said, there are many people in Heishui City who can't cover up the information."
"These grandsons dare to even spread news about me?" He Lingchuan threw down his cup and said angrily, "Who is it specifically? Captain Nian told me that I will not spare him!"
Nian Songyu fell silent and looked at him with an even sharper look.
The feeling of sharp needles pricking his face came again, and He Lingchuan stared back not to be outdone.
