For almost everyone who lived in Qingyang City, the city lord Yang Wanli was a very mysterious figure.

Not to mention that those ordinary residents have basically never seen Yang Wanli, even if it is the vast majority of Qingyang City government officials, they have actually never seen Yang Wanli.

Except for the people in the City Lord's Mansion, in the impression of others, Yang Wanli will always be a vague image.

He has various titles such as the number one master in Qingyang City, the city lord, and the henchman of the king of Dongshan County, but he has never had a specific and figurative concept.

Even most people have begun to forget that there is such a city lord in Qingyang City, and in their eyes, the deterrent power of the city guard is obviously much greater than that of the city lord.

However, in the rain in the late autumn of 740 of the Great Dry Calendar, many residents of Qingyang City finally regained the almost forgotten memories in their minds.

After Yang Wanli came out of the City Lord's Mansion with people, he did not deliberately hide his whereabouts, and a group of dozens of people walked out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and went straight to the direction of Wanhualou.

Such a fanfare move naturally attracted the attention of those pedestrians on the road.

Since they didn't take a sedan chair, all the people from the City Lord's Mansion were unabashedly exposed to the sight of those pedestrians.

It just so happened that among the pedestrians at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, there happened to be an old man who had seen Yang Wanli!

When the old man, who had been lucky enough to see Yang Wanli before, squinted his eyes and recognized Yang Wanli's identity, the nearby pedestrians were all boiling!

This is the first time that Yang Wanli has exposed himself without any concealment in front of the eyes of those ordinary residents in Qingyang City!

Then these pedestrians spread more and more, and people in the vicinity began to flock after hearing the news!

When Yang Wanli brought his dozens of people to Wanhualou, the ordinary people who followed Yang Wanli's group of people had already reached tens of thousands!

Such a huge momentum suddenly changed the shocked faces of the dozen or so people guarding in front of Wanhua Tower.

These are the people from the government affairs department that Zhao Mingyuan found, and the reason why they arranged so many people to guard the door of Wanhualou was actually just to build momentum.

After all, there are these people guarding the door, and there are other people in the Wanhua Building conducting various inspections, which will definitely have a lot of impact on passers-by.

For example, after attracting the attention of ordinary people, many rumors have been derived.

In addition, gossip is the fastest spreading thing in this world, so such a practice will undoubtedly cause great harm to Wanhualou.

The reason for this is naturally to put pressure on Wanhualou as much as possible, and the fundamental purpose is ...... Obviously, it is still on Ning Fei'er's body.

Yang Wanli came to the door of Wanhualou, looked at the dozen or so people guarding the door, and immediately understood the reason.

The already angry gas in the stomach suddenly seemed to explode directly.

But before he could attack on the spot, a terrible scream suddenly came from the courtyard inside the gate of Wanhualou.

At the same time, a figure suddenly fell out of the door of Wanhua Tower.

The figure didn't fly far, that is, after a distance of about four or five meters, it fell heavily to the ground.

With another scream, the man who came out of the air rolled twice under the force of the momentum before coming to a stop.

The whole person was facing the sky, and his face was hideous and he began to curse loudly.

"Xia Fan! How dare you hit me! You're dead! Even the Xia family behind you will definitely not be able to protect you! I promise! ”

Listening to this person's roar, Yang Wanli saw clearly that the person who fell out was Zhao Mingyuan.

At the same time, amid Zhao Mingyuan's cursing, Xia Fan and Ye Yi walked out of the door of Wanhualou side by side.

Ning Fei'er followed behind the two with a frosty face, but those eyes were full of cold taste when she looked at Zhao Mingyuan on the ground.

Xia Fan didn't bother to look at Zhao Mingyuan at all, so he didn't bother to respond to Zhao Mingyuan's clamor at all.

After Tong Ye still walked out of the door of Wanhua Tower together, his attention was immediately attracted by the dozens of people standing at the door.

Among them, the one who attracted his attention the most was naturally Yang Wanli who stood at the front!

The city lord of Qingyang City, under such circumstances, stood face to face with Xia Fan for the first time.

And the reason why Xia Fan and Ye still appeared in this Wanhua Building started more than an hour ago.

When the time moved forward by an hour or so, in the Xia family mansion, Xia Fan had just completed the whole process of participating in the internal cleaning of the family controlled and promoted by Xia Ya.

After making sure that there was nothing he needed help with, Xia Fan went back to his mansion in a happy mood.

Since the rework, being able to remove the hidden dangers within the family in such a short period of time has really saved Xia Fan a lot of time.

When he returned to the mansion, Ye was still in the courtyard explaining to Ya'er about cultivation.

Xia Fan greeted him with a smile, and then stood beside Ye Yi and Ya'er and began to listen.

For such an uninvited move, Ye still gave Xia Fan a roll of his eyes unceremoniously.

The whole process of explanation only lasted for a short time, and after Ya'er understood, she happily ran to the middle of the courtyard and practiced on her own.

Xia Fan waited until Ya'er ran away, and then said with a smile: "Still, I am very curious about something and want to ask you." ”

"What?"

Ye still glanced at Xia Fan strangely, and always felt that Xia Fan's smile was very weird.

"Ahem, that's right, today I heard my father mention the engagement to you. Only then did I realize that you chose to be engaged to me instead of my eldest brother out of your own will. Before that, I thought it was my father's decision. So, I'm curious...... Why did you choose me at the time? ”

Xia Fan stretched out his finger and pointed at himself and asked.

"Do you want to understand this?"

Ye still looked at Hui Xia Fan, and suddenly smiled.

This smile suddenly bloomed like a hundred flowers, which made Xia Fan look a little stunned for a while.

"I don't know about you, but it's not a difficult choice for me to make. Because whether it's you or Xia Junkai, it doesn't make any difference to me. So since it's to repay the favor, of course I have to choose the true blood of the benefactor. You are Uncle Xia's biological son, so I chose you. “

Ye still spoke.

Xia Fan blinked in astonishment, and asked in disbelief, "It's that simple?" ”

"It's as simple as that."

"Yes...... This is the event of your life! ”

"So what? For me at that time, the matter of men and women did not make any sense. No matter who you're with, it's not a problem. ”

Listening to Ye Yi's answer, Xia Fan, who was originally full of interest, really felt quite lost.

"Alright, don't be cranky there. At least I'm glad that this choice seemed ridiculous at the time, but after the test of time, I still have a good eye for it when I look at it today. ”

Ye still glanced at Xia Fan, and his face returned to that expressionless state.

"Can I interpret this as a compliment?"

"Whatever you like. You're just in time, I was going to look for you after I'm done teaching Ya'er. ”

"Huh? What's the matter? ”

"Take me to Wanhualou, I want to meet that Ning family."

"Huh?!"
