"Captain Pan, you can't say that. We all watched the guards of the city lord's palace besieging Captain Xiong, and then we came to help. If you don't care about the crime, you will be held accountable. If you don't know, Captain Xiong has a grudge against you.
!" A strong man who was close to Xiong Cang couldn't help but ridicule.
Pan Guang's face turned green and he said coldly, "Guys, I'm taking care of my team members, you'd better not interfere."
"Hahaha! Of course we won't interfere in your own affairs." The strong man didn't take Pan Guang seriously. "It's just that Captain Xiong is our brother and has some kindness to us, so we won't just watch.
He was wronged and ignored it, don’t you think?"
"That's natural!" The strong man's words aroused the agreement of the surrounding people.
"We know the character of Lao Xiong best. It is absolutely impossible for him to take the initiative to cause trouble!"
"that is!"
…
The words of the surrounding group defending Xiong Cang made Pan Guang's face livid. Pan Guang felt that the anger in his chest was getting stronger and stronger, and he wanted to immediately cut Xiong Cang into pieces for causing him such humiliation.
Xiong Cang's reputation is now higher than that of his captain. How can he endure this?
What's more, this is in front of the city lord and the captains. He has lost all his dignity. How can he not be annoyed? Not angry? What if he doesn't kill him?
Pan Guang didn't know that the murderous look in his eyes had been caught by Ling Xuewei opposite him.
Ling Xuewei narrowed her eyes and sneered in her heart.
"Captain Xiong, I wonder why you are causing trouble in my city lord's palace?" Liao Wenyu scanned the surrounding area and had roughly guessed it.
Xiong Cang stepped forward and said to Liao Wenyu, "I heard the sound and saw the housekeeper leading the guards to besiege my brother. Xiong had no choice but to take action."
Xiong Cang told the truth without adding any extravagance.
"Oh? Why are the guards besieging Captain Xiong's brother?" Liao Wenyu glanced at Butler Sun who was standing aside.
Steward Sun immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly stepped forward and replied bravely, "I am reporting this to the City Lord because this boy picked your most beloved snow lotus. I kindly asked him to compensate and not pursue any further charges. I didn't expect that this person was unwilling to do so.
He injured the guard, and there is nothing he can do about it..."
Butler Sun pointed at Ling Xuewei who was behind the crowd, and all the crowd's eyes fell on Ling Xuewei.
Although there were people present who knew the whole story and knew that Steward Sun was deliberately adding fuel to the fire, no one was willing to stand up and speak for Ling Xuewei. After all, one was just a little-known figure and the other was the great steward of the dignified City Lord's Mansion. Which one was more important?
Naturally understand.
"Oh? I wonder who you are? Why are you causing trouble in my city lord's mansion?" Liao Wenyu looked at Ling Xuewei again.
Under the sun, Ling Xuewei, wearing a crescent moon mask, only revealed a section of her smooth and white chin. She stood tall and tall in the wind, with a cool and noble temperament.
Like the bright stars and the moon, cold and indifferent.
Everyone was in a daze for a moment.
What an elegant and noble young man.
When did such a leading figure come to Zecheng?
Just because Butler Sun can't see it doesn't mean that Liao Wenyu can't see it.
The noble temperament of the young man in front of him has faded away from his coldness at this moment, revealing the intimidating coldness of the coming storm.
Liao Wenyu was shocked and secretly speculated on Ling Xuewei's identity.
"Don't worry about it, City Lord. He is just an unknown person of unknown origin. He was brought back by my little girl Shirui, and he just settled in my house temporarily." Pan Guang spoke first, with a hint of contempt in his words.
Now everyone's attention is wonderful.
They thought Ling Xuewei was some kind of big shot, but after a long time they turned out to be a pretty boy raised by the daughter of the leader of a second-class mercenary group.
What a pity for such a good person.
However, smart people would not think so. With Ling Xuewei’s temperament and demeanor, it is absolutely impossible for her to be just a nobody!
Liao Wenyu is well-informed and naturally would not be so short-sighted.
"Master, if you have something to hide, you might as well speak up." Liao Wenyu's tone towards Ling Xuewei was quite polite.
After Liao Wenyu finished speaking, he saw Butler Sun looking surprised.
The same goes for everyone present.
Unexpectedly, City Lord Liao actually took the initiative to show his kindness? Why is this?
Ling Xuewei raised her eyebrows slightly, this City Lord Liao was actually a smart man.
"I didn't know that the snow lotus in the city lord's palace is so precious. One plant is worth millions of high-grade spiritual stones. I am so shy in my pocket that I really can't withstand the big talk of your housekeeper." Ling Xuewei said lightly.
After saying this, Liao Wenyu's face darkened.
Butler Sun was already breaking into a cold sweat.
"Steward Sun! How brave are you?!" Liao Wenyu's expression suddenly changed.
"Sir, I also feel sorry for the snow lotus in this pool. This is your and Madam's favorite thing. We finally transplanted it, but they ruined it. I'm really angry..." Butler Sun burst into tears.
cried out in tears.
"Insolent! It's just a pool of dead things, but it's worthy of you going to such great lengths and disturbing the distinguished guests! How can you be in charge?" Liao Wenyu shouted angrily.
Butler Sun immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Sir, please spare my life. I am just in a hurry. Please forgive me..."
"City Master Liao, I think this person did not do it unintentionally. What's more, someone did destroy the treasure first, otherwise he would not have done this." Nie Yuan, the leader of Canglang, spoke leisurely, but he helped Butler Sun speak.
..
"Yes, it is indeed my faulty teaching that caused this chaos. Please forgive me, the city lord." The same was true for Pan Guang.
Nie Yuan and Pan Guang both had a grudge against Xiong Cang, so naturally they would not be happy to see him safe and sound. It would be good if they could take this opportunity to let Xiong Cang know how powerful they are.
"Captain Xiong, why don't you come over and kneel down to admit your mistake to the city lord! If you cause such a thing, you will lose all the face of the Liuhuo Mercenary Group!" Pan Guang shouted angrily.
"Captain, this has nothing to do with the captain, it's obviously..." Xiong Cang's men couldn't help but realize.
"Shut up! You have no right to speak here!" Pan Guang interrupted him and looked at Xiong Cang, "What? I can't even invite you?"
"Lao Xiong..."
"Damn it! This is too much!"
…
Many people present knew that Xiong Cang and Pan Guang had been at odds for a long time, but they did not expect that Pan Guang would use this matter to make trouble today.
If Xiongcang pleads guilty, his prestige will be lost in one day. If he refuses to comply, Pan Guang can also take the opportunity to attack and deprive him of his position in the regiment. In any case, it will be a dead end.
This Pan Guang is so despicable.
Xiong Cang knew in his heart that something bad might happen today.
If he insists on going his own way, Pan Guang will definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble when he returns, and then his team members...
This is the last thing Xiong Cang wants to see.
"Captain..." Everyone looked at Xiong Cang with worried faces.
Xiong Cang gave Dai Can a comforting look and stepped forward.
"Lao Xiong..."
Several friends also wanted to stop Xiong Cang. Xiong Cang was really aggrieved by doing so. They all felt that Xiong Cang was not worth it.
