After burying Yue Qing and his wife, the sky was gradually getting brighter.

Chu Yang and others originally planned to take Xia'er away, but she insisted on staying in Yunjian Temple to keep vigil for her parents.

Everyone had no choice but to say goodbye to her and return to Jinling City.

Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou returned without incident, and the completion of the banknote case made Xuzhi County smile from ear to ear. As the parent officer of Jinling City, he was walking on thin ice these days.

Apart from anything else, the disappearance of the seventh son of the Jiangnan Hua family was enough to declare the end of his official career.

The big demon has been eliminated, and the person has returned. Not only does he have no faults now, but he can also write a note in the credit book, and his career is expected to be further improved. It is simply a bloody profit.

Therefore, Xuzhi County acted generously and invited Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Yang to the best restaurant.

Lu Xiaofeng was not polite and directly ordered a large amount of good food and wine on the table, which made Xu Zhixian's face hurt and he kept breathing cold air while eating.

Three rounds of wine.

Xu Zhixian was the first to leave the banquet due to excessive drinking. After he left, Chu Yang and others chatted openly.

"I never thought that you two would leave the capital one day. I thought you would die of old age in that gentle town."

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but sigh.

"Renwen Township..." Chu Yang sighed, "This description is quite appropriate. If I hadn't gone out this time, I wouldn't have known that the outside world would be such a hell on earth."

"Demons are plundering, big demons are rampant, and countless people can only survive in the cracks. On the way here, we met a deserted village..."

Lu Xiaofeng listened silently to Chu Yang's story while the whole building was filled with flowers, and she couldn't help but have an idea in her heart. He really knew nothing about the outside world.

"It's hard to believe that you have never left the capital or seen the outside world since you were a child."

Hua Manlou exclaimed in disbelief, "It seems you are well protected."

"Protect?" Chu Yang was stunned for a moment, then looked up to the sky and smiled: "It's just a bird in a cage!"

"In the past years, the biggest resistance I could make was to put a few more piles of bird poop into the birdcage to disgust the person who cleaned the birdcage."

Hua Manlou muttered: "I don't see that Brother Chu also has his own problems."

"It used to be, but not anymore." Chu Yang shook his head and smiled: "From the moment I stepped out of the cage, nothing can trap my heart anymore."

Lu Xiaofeng raised her glass and laughed loudly: "Then I wish Young Master Chu to be free from now on!"

Li Gexiao stood up with a complicated expression, raised his glass together, and nodded towards Chu Yang.

Huamanlou also stood up silently.

Four people drink together.

"To be honest, I'm quite touched. I didn't expect that you two would come directly to me after leaving the capital. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have been able to escape this disaster. From this look, I, Lu Xiaofeng, am really quite popular."

Lu Xiaofeng started to boast and boast with a smile again.

"In these years of living and enjoying life, most of the friends I have made are fair-weather friends. There are very few people I can really talk to. You, Lu Xiaofeng, are indeed one of them."

Chu Yang lowered his head and rubbed the wine glass with a look of nostalgia on his face.

Hua Manlou smiled slightly and said, "Brother Chu, can you include me? After today, we should be considered friends, right?"

Chu Yang nodded and said: "Of course, although we have different views on things, it does not prevent me from admiring you as a person. This world needs people like you to exist."

Hua Manlou showed a thoughtful expression.

Lu Xiaofeng asked curiously: "Where do you plan to go next?"

Chu Yang said: "This journey is just a spur of the moment, there is no special end point, just follow your heart. It's just that I don't have much interest at this time."

Lu Xiaofeng seemed to understand Chu Yang's thoughts and said: "It was originally a pleasant outing, but as soon as I left home, I saw beggars all over the street. Although their poverty had nothing to do with me, listening to their begging sounds made me feel sad. It didn’t taste good, so I wasn’t in the mood for an outing.”

The corners of Chu Yang's lips raised, "Your metaphor is quite interesting."

Lu Xiaofeng said in an "experienced" tone: "I have to advise you, when manpower is limited, it is already good that we can help each other when encountering injustices. Don't think about risking the peace and joy of the whole world for yourself." contact with."

"You don't have that ability. Even if you do, you will only tire yourself to death. It's better to be more carefree like me."

Li Ge smiled and patted the table and laughed loudly: "Lu Xiaofeng, the most nosy person in the world, actually taught others to mind their own business and said you are carefree. I have never seen how carefree you are. You really like to talk nonsense with that mouth of yours."

Huamanlou also laughed.

Lu Xiaofeng's old face turned red and said angrily: "Drunkard, we have been friends for many years, and you just want to tear me down like this?"

Li Ge smiled and shook his head and said with a smile: "The main reason is that what you said is too outrageous. Another point is that your experience is not suitable for the young master. Some people can choose to be carefree like you, but some people are born with no choice."

"They have been burdened with the fate of the human race since they were born, and they cannot escape. They will eventually have to face it."

Having said this, Li Gexiao stared at Chu Yang solemnly and said solemnly: "You have seen a lot of the world along the way. I know you don't want to be in a cage again. You want to be as free and carefree as Lu Xiaofeng said."

"But if you really give up everything, the world will never have a chance to get rid of the current situation."

"The person who is hiding in the gentle village and dreaming doesn't care about the life and death of the people outside."

Chu Yang didn't answer and put down his wine glass.

He silently walked to the window and looked at the busy traffic and people coming and going outside the restaurant.

He really has no interest in the throne. He has been trapped in the capital for so many years and finally got real freedom. It would be extremely cruel to let him go back.

Lu Xiaofeng on the side felt more and more something was wrong as he listened. Coupled with some previous things, strange thoughts began to pop up in his mind.

Just when he was hesitating about how to speak, there was a sudden shouting outside.

"Urgent report!"

"The Qi family's army is ambushing in Wanglong City in the East China Sea!"

"The Japanese pirates and the big demon teamed up to form a formation to surround the Qi family army!"

"The Great Demon of the Sea Clan is about to lead his army to attack Jinling City!"

"General Qi has an order to organize all forces to defend Jinling City!"

"Jinling City is unbreakable!"

"Once Jinling City is lost, our human race will no longer have a city along the coast to prevent the big monster from entering the hinterland of the Central Plains!"

A soldier covered in blood, riding a military horse also covered in blood, shouted along the street at the top of his lungs and rushed straight to the Yamen.

But before they reached their destination, the soldier seemed to suddenly lose all his strength. He fell from his horse and hit the ground hard, and his breathing became weak.

The common people and street merchants spontaneously took out medicines from their houses to treat the injured soldiers. No one disliked the filth on his body.

Everyone understood that the injuries suffered by the soldiers were borne by them.

pity……

The injuries were too serious. The soldiers were already losing more air than taking in air, and were about to die.

Someone began to cry in a low voice, and the crying seemed to be contagious, and more and more people gathered around the dying soldier.

"Secure Jinling City..."

Just when the color in the soldier's eyes gradually turned pale, someone held his hand tightly, and a warm current entered his body. Chu Yang held his hand full of blood and looked back at Li Gexiao in the restaurant.

It's like saying...

it is good!

I want this world!

…………

Xu Zhixian, who had just been drunk and lay down, rushed out of the Yamen in a hurry without even putting on his clothes.

"Hurry up and ask the county magistrate to close the city gate!"

"Quick!"

"Immediately have people rush to send the news to the capital. We need a lot of reinforcements!"

"Thousand-Knife Killer! Why did this monster tribe attack!"

"The person named Qi is really a loser..."

Before Xu Zhixian finished speaking, a hand suddenly stretched out and slapped him hard on the face. His eyes went black and he almost fainted.

The master hugged Xu Zhixian from behind, his sight completely blocked, and said anxiously: "Who dares to beat the imperial official! Aren't you afraid of being beheaded?!"

After regaining consciousness, Xu Zhixian covered his mouth and took a closer look. The person who hit him was none other than the Jin Yiwei who had just entertained him in the restaurant.

"Chu, how dare you hit me? You drank too much and you went crazy on this county magistrate!"

"Even if you are a Jin Yiwei, I will take you down today. Beating an official of the imperial court is a serious crime! As a Jin Yiwei who knows the law and breaks the law, the crime will be increased!"

Chu Yang looked at him coldly, "General Qi is fighting bloody battles at the front. As a county magistrate, you not only fail to appease the people, but also speak rudely to the Qi family's army. Shouldn't you be beaten?"

Xu Zhixian, whose majesty had been damaged and yet had been taught a lesson, was furious and roared: "Why are you still standing there, take him down quickly!"

The government officials holding water and fire sticks surrounded Chu Yang.

Because the south is invaded by monsters and demons all year round, the number of government officials in each town is much higher than that in the north. In an important hub like Jinling City, the number of government officials alone is in the thousands, not counting the army.

The government officials are all warriors, and thousands of warriors formed a formation to besiege. Let me ask. Which top player in the world can win?

Not to mention a Jinyiwei.

This is also the reason why Xuzhi County is so arrogant.

In this three-acre area of ​​​​Jinling City, Qi Jiajun is not here, he is the real emperor!

Li Gexiao, Lu Xiaofeng, and Hua Manlou flew down from the restaurant without thinking, landed in front of Chu Yang, and protected him.

"This is not the capital, but no one is selling you the face of Young Master Chu. You slapped me too hard." Lu Xiaofeng complained, then changed the subject and said with a cheerful smile: "But the slap is good, the slap is really good." It’s very satisfying, I’ve been in Jinling City for many days, and I can’t stand what this magistrate has done.”

"This guy dared to relax his guard while General Qi was not in the city. A group of people, including the county magistrate, controlled the city gate and secretly accepted bribes. Those who paid the most from passers-by could enter the city without being checked. It's really unreasonable!"

When Xuzhi County heard that Lu Xiaofeng had revealed his story in public, he immediately became anxious and yelled, "Lu Xiaofeng, don't think that just because you solved a case, you can go out and slander the county!"

Lu Xiaofeng chuckled, "You haven't figured out whether it's a false accusation or not?"

Hua Manlou, who has always been pleasant-looking, couldn't help but said with a cold face: "Xuzhi County, although my Hua family is rich, we also know how to make money. Some money can be earned, but some money can't be earned at all. Jinling City is the gateway to the south, protecting the Central Plains from the Hai clan. Great demon, how could you act like this?"

"If the imperial court finds out about this, it will definitely kill all nine of your clans!"

The words "Zhu Jiu Clan" caused great irritation to Xu Zhixian. He probably knew that his affairs would not end well if his affairs were exposed. His face suddenly turned red, and he pointed at Huamanlou and cursed in shock and anger.

"It doesn't matter that you are the son of the Hua family in Jiangnan. Even if you offend the Hua family, I can't let you leave Jinling City today!"

A large number of government officials had already surrounded Chu Yang on three floors inside and three floors outside. Those people who had been watching the excitement from the beginning were squeezed outside and could not hear the conversation of several people at all. They could only vaguely hear Xu Zhixian's words. Yelling and cursing.

Seeing more and more government officials, the people knew that something big might happen, and gradually retreated to a distance, for fear that they would be implicated.

"I felt uncomfortable the first time I saw you, a dog official. I didn't expect that my vision has not deteriorated after being a royal guard for so many years."

Li Gexiao pulled out the embroidered spring knife and pointed it at Xuzhi County and cursed.

"Aren't you a Jin Yiwei?"

Lu Xiaofeng glared at Li Ge angrily and said with a smile, "Are you sick? Why are you talking to him about this stuff? You're fine now, look at his proud look!"

Li Gexiao didn't care, and said calmly: "We have to let him be a sensible person."

Hua Manlou smiled slightly and said, "Brother Li, you might as well say more. Halfway through, he is still a confused person."

Li Gexiao looked at Huamanlou with some surprise. He was obviously blind, but Li Gexiao felt that his eyes were extremely bright, as if he had a thorough understanding of the world.

Chu Yang smiled and said: "It won't work if you use my name now. He is already desperate. It will only make him determined to kill us."

Li Ge smiled and smacked his lips, "It doesn't cost money to give it a try. No matter how bad the situation is, how bad can it be?"

The next moment, I saw him shouting: "Xu, there is something I want to remind you. As grandpa, I will be merciful and give you a chance, lest you implicate the nine tribes and still hate grandpa in the hell."

Xu Zhixian, who was about to ask the government officials to attack in groups, signaled to his men to wait a moment!

The corner of Xu Zhixian's lips curled up. He had an absolute advantage, and his heart was full of arrogance. He smiled and said: "If you have anything else to say when you are about to die, please tell me. I will show mercy to you."

"By the way, I don't have any unworthy descendants like you!"

Lu Xiaofeng said playfully: "He won't let you take advantage of him at all."

Li Ge laughed and coughed dryly.

"Grandson, listen carefully!"

"The person who slapped you just now is the late emperor's royal prince, the current emperor's younger brother, His Highness the Xian King!"

The word "Xian Wang" is like a bombshell falling on a group of government officials!

The next moment, there was a roar of people!

There was an uproar!

Xu Zhixian didn't expect such an appearance, and a panicked expression appeared on his face.

Wise King!

Isn't that the good-for-nothing prince who has been staying in the capital?

Why did it suddenly appear here...

A flash of light flashed in Xu Zhixian's mind, and he yelled: "You damn thief first pretended to be a royal guard, and then you lied here to confuse the public!"

"Who in the world doesn't know that the wise king can't come all the way to Jinling City without leaving the capital!"

"Even if he comes, it's impossible for him to come with only two or three people. Everyone knows that the wise king is extravagant and lustful. When he travels, he will definitely be very grand, and the honor guard belonging to the prince will not be less."

"Prince riding into the city, who are you fooling!"

After saying this, the originally flustered government officials gradually calmed down.

Chu Yang said helplessly: "I'll beat you when you say you want. If you have to involve me, I'll get scolded for nothing."

Li Ge smiled and spread his hands.

Lu Xiaofeng whispered: "Really?"

Chu Yang nodded, "Really."

Thinking of the rude remarks he made before, Lu Xiaofeng felt that he would have to behead several times just to behead him, so he closed his eyes and looked helpless.
