A few days later.

A middle-aged man in a Confucian shirt stood outside the Liumen Mansion with a calm and breezy face.

Peng Hui wanted to send it away, but he heard that the other party was a member of the Supreme League, so he didn't dare to make his own claim, so he immediately ran in to report: "Lord Qiqi, there is a middle-aged man outside the mansion who asks to see him, and he looks dressed up, he should be a scholar." ”

Tang Yuan didn't raise his head and asked, "Who is it?"

"The people of the Supreme League. Peng Hui blurted out.

"Supreme Alliance?"

Tang Yuan was puzzled at first, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Look, the owner of this batch of private salt has been found. ”

Peng Hui was stunned for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "My lord, can you see that?"

Tang Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Why don't you see him, let him in." ”

Soon, Qi Hongru wore a light blue Confucian shirt and walked in slowly.

"Under Qi Hongru, meet Lord Tang of the Six Doors. ”

Qi Hongru bowed slightly and gave a salute.

Tang Yuan kept his head down, and when he heard the voice, he looked up.

A spiritual force poured out on Qi Hongru, causing him to take a few steps back.

"You're not a martial artist?" Tang Yuan said in surprise.

Qi Hongru's heart sank, and before he started talking, he gave him a dismount first.

Qi Hongru stabilized his body, straightened up his Confucian shirt, and arched his hand: "I am a scholar, not a martial arts person, and my lord may have misunderstood." ”

"Reader?"

Tang Yuan lost his momentum, and did not bully a weak scholar, and said lightly: "You are a scholar, you don't want to serve the court, and you stir up peace in the rivers and lakes, it is rare to have a good death." ”

This sentence already has a warning meaning.

Qi Hongru suddenly smiled bitterly, "I have been studying for many years, and I have never been lifted, so I have also extinguished the mind of continuing to study.

"Then why did you ask to see this official today?"

Tang Yuan didn't care about the question of reading, so he changed the topic and asked.

Qi Hongru stood at the foot of the hall, facing the murderers of Tang Yuan's generation, he was not afraid at all, and said frankly: "Qi came today for that batch of coarse salt. ”

"The private salt is confiscated, Your Excellency is also a scholar, you won't not understand this truth, do you still need to be reminded by the official?" Tang Yuan's eyelids drooped slightly, and his tone was indifferent.

Qi Hongru didn't answer, and said instead: "You can divide the adult's profit into ......."

"Haha!" Tang Yuan laughed as if he had heard some joke, "Your Excellency, do you know how much the head of the Xu family is willing to share the official position?"

Without waiting for Qi Hongru to answer, Tang Yuan stretched out a hand and said loudly: "Fifty percent! In order to survive, he is willing to share fifty percent, and your Supreme Alliance is too petty." ”

"It is not his, and if he dares to stretch out his hand, he will cut off his claws. Qi Hongru's voice was sonorous, full of the smell of iron and blood.

"Why doesn't Your Excellency practice martial arts?"

Tang Yuan suddenly asked inexplicably, quite confusing, "Or is it that Your Excellency is both civil and military?"

Suddenly, Tang Yuan's figure flashed, leaving an afterimage on the spot, and he instantly deceived Qi Hongru within a few feet.

Rumble!

A punch hit Qi Hongru's eyebrows.

Qi Hongru's face was awe-inspiring, and his dantian true qi was mobilized independently, forming a protective body qi outside his body in an instant.

"Humph!"

Seeing this, Tang Yuan snorted coldly, and the true yuan was surging, slamming into the Gang Qi hood.

"Click!"

In an instant, the body protection qi shattered inch by inch with the fist as the center.

Qi Hongru stepped back and kicked back, blood overflowing from the corners of his mouth, and he glanced at Tang Yuan in shock, he really didn't expect him to make a thunderous move.

Tang Yuan sneered, "You have such a martial art, but you hide it, your heart can be punished." ”

'How did Lord Tang perceive it?' Qi Hongru asked in a deep voice.

"You don't talk like a scholar. ”

Tang Yuan smiled meaningfully.

Qi Hongru was stunned, and secretly wrote down in his heart that he had to be extremely careful in the future.

I saw Tang Yuan carrying his hands behind his back, and said lightly: "I, Tang Jiu, am a rough person, and I haven't read any books, so I respect readers, but I don't like treacherous readers, you get out." ”

Qi Hongru thought for a moment, bowed his hand slightly, and retreated.

He no longer asks about coarse salt.

He was not without other options.

"My lord, who is this person, and you just sent it away?"

Qi Hongru left with his front foot, and Peng Hui walked in.

"A man with ill intentions, but it has nothing to do with us. ”

Tang Yuan sneered, as if he remembered something, and asked again, "Peng Hui, has the matter of private salt been reported to Lord Qin?"

Peng Hui said truthfully: "Lord Qin went out on a mission, and he was not in the state capital, but now he is the deputy chief arrest Lord Feng to deal with the important affairs of Ningzhou's martial arts. ”

Tang Yuan didn't care and nodded.

"As soon as there is news, report it to me. Tang Yuan dropped a word and left.

Peng Hui shrugged, not knowing what the adults meant.

The destruction of the Iron Sword Gate, with the passage of time, not only did not gradually extinguish the turmoil, but became very noisy.

For a while, Tang Yuan was pushed to the forefront.

If no one deliberately contributed to the troubles behind him, Tang Yuan would not believe it.

It's just that for the time being, the intention is difficult to understand.

"My lord, my lord, the state government has arrived. ”

Peng Hui eagerly ran in to report.

Tang Yuan frowned and said, "What are the people from the state city government doing?"

"Xu is here for the Iron Sword Gate, this matter is not small, it should be here to calm the turmoil. Peng Hui guessed in a low voice.

"Let's go, let's see. ”

Tang Yuan thought for a moment and said to Peng Hui.

Then, he took the lead and walked out.

At the door of the mansion, Tang Yuan saw the three of them standing in the middle of the field.

One person is the leader, and the other two are second.

"Dare to ask which lord is the state city government?" Tang Yuan walked over and asked.

The leader was a young man, his expression was solemn, and he didn't smile when he saw Tang Yuan, and said: "This official, Han Tianfeng, has come to inquire about the Iron Sword Gate on the order of Deputy Chief Feng's arrest. ”

Tang Yuan frowned slightly, nodded and said, "Since that's the case, Lord Han, please." ”

Han Tianfeng didn't refuse, and walked side by side with Tang Yuan to the main hall.

The two people behind him looked indifferent, ignoring Peng Hui's greetings.

When you look at it, you will know that the person who came is not good.

In the main hall, Tang Yuan roughly explained what had happened.

After all, he had already reported the information to the state capital.

That Vice President Feng should know everything.

Half an hour later, after listening to Tang Yuan's words, Han Tianfeng nodded slightly, then took out a bronze token, held it high above the top and said in a deep voice: "Pass on the order of Deputy Chief Feng to arrest, and Tang Yuan, the head of Fufeng County, listen to the order." ”

Tang Yuan got up and arched his hand slightly: "The lower officials listen to the order!"

Han Tianfeng didn't say anything about this, but the two behind him frowned, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Tang Yuan's attitude.

Han Tianfeng said: "Tang Yuan, as the head catcher of the six gates, does not want to forge ahead, provokes disputes between the six gates and the rivers and lakes for no reason, and even does the act of raiding the house and destroying the door, how is this cruel method different from the devil's way?"

In view of this, Tang Yuan was removed from the post of head catcher and demoted to Fufeng County to catch fast in order to set an example. The position of head catcher is temporarily replaced by Peng Hui, the deputy head catcher. Does Tang Zhutou know about it, can he have any objections?"
