Three days later, Xiao Muting set out to return. The army marched far away in a mighty manner. Outside the gate of Yifeng City, there were still people seeing each other off.
When they were still half a day away from Xiuyang City, they saw Chujiu, the Qingluan team member who had been sent earlier. She was standing on a horse in a green outfit and looked at Su Han with a smile.
"What's going on in the city?" Su Han asked as he drove his horse forward.
Chujiu pointed in the direction of the North City Gate: "As the captain expected, all the officials in this city are dog officials. Because we took a detour and allowed them to escape, we did not learn the lesson, and even more
After receiving the order from the eunuch of Yifeng City, he threatened the people in the city not to let them reveal even a single word about using the people as human shields. When you arrive outside the city gate, you can also see that the people in the city will be killed at dawn.
They drove me outside the city gate to participate in the welcoming ceremony. I have been standing here for almost a day without being given food or a sip of water. It is extremely abominable."
Su Han rolled his eyelids and grinned in displeasure: "He is indeed a dog official!"
Chujiu nodded again and said: "The deputy captain and his team members have already figured out the details of these people. They will only wait for the order from His Highness and the captain to control those people in the city. However, those officials may
We have to take him into custody later, because everyone is gathered at the city gate, preparing to welcome His Highness into the city."
"That's all?" she asked again.
"Of course not. This Grand Administrator Liang is a very good person. He has prepared a banquet for His Highness, the captain and others at the best inn in the city to welcome you and wash away the dust. He also... will lead the flower girls in the five flower houses in the city.
Please come here to cheer you up, there are quite a few flower ladies who are already preparing to be sent to the military camp to be given to the brothers of the Xuanjia Army." Chujiu said to her with an angry expression on her face.
"He is really looking for death!" Su Han said in a loud voice.
"Captain, this person is very arrogant and arrogant. Just like what the captain said, he is like the boss of heaven and the second boss of earth. The people in the city are very afraid of his official power. In addition, the captain in the city is nothing.
Good thing, these two people have harmed many people together, especially in his mansion." Chujiu's anger became even more genuine.
Su Han nodded clearly: "How can you not tolerate the law?"
"His house is divided into front, middle front, middle, middle and back and five entrances. It occupies three streets. The front and middle courtyards are on the same street. The courtyard beyond the middle gate is the middle and rear house. There are also two
The house he entered was followed by the back house. This back house alone had a second entrance yard. It didn’t look like an ordinary home at all. It was just like a flower house. It was understood that he was the one who contacted the officials and businessmen in the city on weekdays.
The main place, there are more than a dozen young women living there, and they are all from good families, and they are nominally his concubines." Chujiu answered simply and clearly.
Su Han pursed his lips and said, "I didn't expect that I could catch a big fish here."
Xiao Muting now understood everything after hearing this, and raised his head to Chu Jiu: "Then I will leave this matter to Qingluan with full authority to execute it. Captain Su can issue the order."
Su Han raised her head and looked at the sky. It was only half an hour before dark. She nodded to Chu Jiu: "Action!"
Chujiu took out the signal tube from his waist and fired it into the sky. A dazzling red light shot up into the sky.
Not only the team members in the city saw it, but also the officials of Xiuyang City who had been waiting at the city gate to welcome the arrival. They immediately cheered up and asked the officers and soldiers to cheer and be escorted out of the city to greet the people of Xiao Muting's troops.
, they all cheered up and everyone had to smile.
But they waited for a full hour before they saw a group of people approaching in the distance.
When the army arrived at the city gate and dispersed, Lin Haoxuan walked over majestically with a long sword in his hand, looking sharply at the cheering people with a serious expression.
Liang Zhijie had already rushed forward with the officials in the city, and said with a flattering smile: "Liang Zhijie, the governor of Xiuyang City, respectfully welcomes His Royal Highness King Chen and the officers and soldiers of the Xuanjia Army into the city!"
"What are you doing!" Lin Haoxuan asked in a cold voice, pointing at the "prosperous age" outside the city with the sword in his hand.
Liang Zhijie immediately smiled and said: "The lower official has learned about the situation and feels honored to be a subject of the Holy Qin Kingdom. He is even more fortunate to be a citizen of the land of His Highness King Chen. The people in the city are extremely happy and spontaneously
Come outside the city to welcome His Highness King Chen on his triumphant return."
Lin Haoxuan raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Master Liang, you are not guilty of saying this. Do you believe it yourself?"
"Uh...this..." Liang Zhijie couldn't help being stunned, and looked at Lin Haoxuan with doubts in his eyes.
He was able to sneak into the officialdom with his unique skills of flattering others. Otherwise, he would not have been promoted so smoothly. Why doesn't this method work today? These people are not following common sense.
Or he didn't get the photo in the right place.
When Lin Haoxuan saw him like this, he became angry and held the sword in his hand tightly. If it weren't for Xiao Muting and Su Han behind him, he would have directly chopped down this annoying person based on his temper.
Lin Haoxuan did not talk nonsense with him, and directly ordered: "Make way out, let the people enter the city first, and then the army will enter the city."
When Liang Zhijie heard the order, he immediately turned around and waved his hands and said loudly: "Didn't you hear what His Highness said? Quickly, let all the people enter the city without any mistakes. They must all retreat to the city within a quarter of an hour and give way to the main road in the city. No mistakes are allowed."
Someone is blocking the army from entering the city!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yang, the city defense captain, immediately followed suit and ordered his officers and soldiers to drive the people back into the city. Those who walked slowly would kick them or push them with their spears.
How could Lin Haoxuan tolerate them like this? He shouted: "Assholes!"
With another wave of his hand, the Xuanjia army behind them jumped off their horses and rushed forward. The officers and soldiers who were merciless to the people rushed over. As soon as the two sides fought, they were immediately superior. Xiao Yanli led the two of them and rushed to the city defense capital.
In front of Wei Zhou Yanghua, he put the long sword in his hand on his neck and asked him to order his officers and soldiers to stop.
Just when Liang Zhijie was in a panic, he saw Xiao Muting and Su Han walking over. Just looking at their momentum, he already knew that he had recognized the wrong person just now, and immediately knelt down to pay homage: "I'm here to pay my respects to Liang Zhijie, the prefect of Xiuyang City.
His Highness King Chen!"
"From now on, you are no longer the governor of Xiuyang City. Come and escort this person to the governor's office. I will personally interrogate this person!" Xiao Muting said coldly.
Liang Zhijie still wanted to defend himself, but an invisible sense of oppression made him unable to breathe. In addition, his whole body went limp after being frightened. He allowed the rushing Xuanjia Army to take off his black gauze hat and tear off his official uniform.
, and lifted him up.
At this time, Su Han threw a pill at the soldier who was holding the man captive, and said mockingly: "Give him this first. Don't be scared to death. Then there will be no trial. This old guy has many charges."
If you're scared to death, you're really giving him an advantage."
"Yes!" The soldiers obediently opened Liang Zhijie's mouth, and the other stuffed the pills in. They didn't let go until he swallowed it.
Su Han put his arms on the saddle and looked at him with a smile: "Liang, don't be so worthless. I have a big debt to settle with you! Give me some air!"
Liang Zhijie just wanted to faint now, and at the same time he was shouting in his heart: How could this be! Did he flatter me wrongly?
