Beside the pasture, Latu, who was being controlled by the guards, was already feeling impatient after a long wait.
"Why did the second prince arrest me? I am the master of suffering. I am the master of suffering!"
Latu was blocked by two guards, and he could only shout loudly to the second prince.
But no matter how Latu called, Ahudala never showed up and ignored him.
Just when Latu was feeling depressed, a large number of soldiers suddenly arrived outside the pasture, led by a bearded general.
When Latu saw that it was the bearded general, he couldn't help but feel vaguely happy, thinking to himself that finally an acquaintance was here, and things might turn around.
As soon as the bearded general arrived at the pasture, he ran to Ahudala to greet him. Ahudala nodded slightly and then told him what happened.
During this process, Chai Yan and the other two stood beside Ahudala, listening and saying nothing the whole time.
Soon, Ahhudala said everything he needed to say.
Then, Ahudala invited Chai Yan and Jimo Qiao to get on his carriage.
Then, the bearded general led his people to take over Latu, and then respectfully saw Ahudala's car off and slowly left.
When Ahudala and others walked away, Latu showed a smile, raised his hands and said respectfully: "Master Guard, I have been waiting for you..."
This bearded general is the guard of Jubao Town.
"Latu, don't get too close to me. I'm not very familiar with you!" The bearded guard's tone and expression were cold, and he kept a distant distance from Latu as soon as he spoke.
Latu was shocked: "Master Guard, how did you..."
How could Latu not be surprised? Normally, this guard would not take away any benefits from him. Logically, he should be protecting him at this time, but his attitude was like that of a stranger.
"Shut up, we can talk about it when we get back." The guard interrupted Latu with a loud shout.
Immediately afterwards, the guard pointed at Latu's men in gray and shouted: "Come here, take all these people back and interrogate them severely!"
After giving the order, the soldiers brought by the guard swarmed forward and surrounded everyone in the center of the grassland.
"Master Guard, you...why don't you listen to this villain's explanation?" Latu said with a bitter face.
The guard looked sideways at Latu and said in a cold voice: "Latu, don't you know who you are? Do you dare to swear a poisonous oath to the moon god? Are you sure you are the four immortals who are interested in wealth?"
"I..." Latu was suddenly speechless.
The people of Muyue country believe deeply in the Haoyue God, so they generally don't dare to make such poisonous oaths.
The guard looked at Latu who gradually lowered his head, thought for a while and said: "Latu, come with me..."
Latu looked up and saw that the guard was walking back and nodding at him, so Latu hurriedly followed.
The two of them walked a little farther, and then the guard asked: "Do you want to escape this disaster?"
"Think, think, sir!" Latu nodded immediately.
The guard said: "If you want to, find a scapegoat immediately, otherwise, I won't be able to protect you!"
Latu understood as soon as he heard it. It seemed that the second prince must have said something to the Lord Guard just now, otherwise the Lord Guard should not have such an attitude.
Speaking of scapegoats, the first thing that came to Latu's mind was the horse bandit Zawang.
Latu immediately turned around and looked into the crowd, quickly locking eyes on Zawang's figure.
Latu pointed his finger at Zawang and said angrily: "The guard is that Zawang. He instigated the villain to do this. He is the culprit!"
Zhawang in the crowd was feeling uneasy, and Latu suddenly shouted like this, which instantly stunned him.
"Brother, how did you..."
"Stop yelling, I'm not your brother!"
As soon as Zawang opened his mouth, Latu stopped him.
Immediately afterwards, Latu whispered to the guard: "Master guard, this person is the leader of the nearby horse bandit, Zhawang!"
The bearded guard looked startled and said in surprise: "Really?"
Zha Wang nodded vigorously: "Sir, I don't dare to lie."
The guard was overjoyed and immediately pointed at Zhawang and shouted: "Come here, take this person down quickly!"
The next moment, several soldiers surrounded Zhawang and tied him up in an instant.
--------------------------
Around noon, in a restaurant in the town.
Ahudala, Chai Yan, and Jimo Qiao sat at the same table, while Cheng Jiu and Yu Tie stood not far behind Chai Yan.
"Come here, bring the things up." Ahudala said and raised his hand.
Soon, an attendant came over and placed a stack of banknotes in Chai Yan's hand.
After the attendants retreated, Ahudala said: "Master Changsheng, here are the silver coins from selling horses. They have all been exchanged for Shengguo's silver notes. Please take a look."
Chai Yan picked it up, looked through the banknotes, and then asked: "Second Prince, this must be three or four thousand taels, right?"
"A total of four thousand taels, I hope Taoist Priest Changsheng will not be too little," Ahudala said.
Chai Yan smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "How could that be?"
With that said, Chai Yan put the stack of banknotes into his arms as a matter of course.
Ahudala was very happy to see this and immediately had a smile on his face.
Jimo Qiao didn't care about money, she was more concerned about how to deal with Latu, so she asked: "Second prince, how will you punish Latu?"
Ahudala looked at Jimo Qiao and said in a very polite tone: "Miss Mo Yu, the guard just came to report that Latu had confessed, and he pointed out that all this was threatened by the local horse bandit leader Zha Wang, Latu
I have no choice but to do so..."
"Second Prince, do you believe this?" Jimo Qiao suddenly became excited, frowning and staring at Ahudala.
Chai Yan immediately patted Jimo Qiao's arm and said, "Junior sister, don't be impulsive yet. Listen to what the second prince has to say."
Jimo Qiao suppressed his anger and waited for Ahudala to continue speaking.
Ahudala said: "Miss Mo Yu, of course I won't believe this. Although I don't know the situation in Jubao Town very well, I still know the general situation. This Latu should be there on weekdays.
He colluded with the horse bandits, and at this time he just shifted the blame to the horse bandit leader Zha Wang and made him his scapegoat."
Jimo Qiao hurriedly asked: "Second Prince, since you know everything, why don't you let the local guard punish him?"
Ahudala lowered his head and sighed, shook his head and said: "Miss Mo Yu, this matter is hard to explain..."
"What do you mean?" Jimo Qiao was confused.
Chai Yan suddenly said: "Tsk, don't you understand? It must be this guard and the guy named Latu. The relationship between them is very close!"
Hearing this, Ahudala nodded seriously and admitted.
Jimo Qiao said in surprise: "No...you are the second prince. As a member of the royal family, can't you do anything with him as a small guard?"
Ahudala hurriedly explained: "Miss Mo Yu, it's not that I can't do anything against them, it's just that the manpower I brought with me on this trip is very limited. If I do it rashly, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will be counterproductive."
"Counterproductive?" Jimo Qiao couldn't help but sneered: "Haha, do they still dare to rebel?"
Ahudala could not answer this question directly. He could only sigh awkwardly, as if he acquiesced.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not so good, Chai Yan immediately smoothed things over and said: "Junior sister, running a country is inherently complicated. Every country has its own national conditions and particularities, and Muyue Kingdom is naturally no exception. Regarding today's issues, in the future
The second prince will definitely find a way to handle it properly."
Jimo Qiao noticed that Chai Yan kept winking at him when he spoke, so he took a sip of tea and stopped asking any more questions.
