Chapter 173: The City Lord Appears

Early in the morning

"Sir, the washing water is ready, do you want to come and wash now?" Leng Yu said to Mu Li, who was enjoying the scenery outside the window, while testing the temperature of the water with his hands.

"Knock knock!"

At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and the two of them looked at it together.

"Who?" Mu Li asked, with a frown.

"Guest, Lord Castle would like to come and meet you. Outside the door came the shopkeeper's respectful and frightened voice.

"City Lord?" Mu Li repeated, with a fox-like cunning in the corner of his eyes, "Let him wait for Ben Shao below!"

"Yes, guest officer. The treasurer's order to step back.

"It seems that this city lord is not a good thing!" Mu Li and Leng Yu said a word of advice, and walked out.

I thought that as soon as I came, this city lord should come to greet him in person.

But who would have thought that the identity of the prince of the world was like a fake! The city lord was unwilling to summon him!

Mu Li didn't think that the soldiers at the city gate hadn't informed the city lord of their arrival!

In this way, in order to be able to see Mu Li, the city lord, he naturally had to make some movements.

Yesterday's brute bull was just a victim of the game between Mu Li and the city lord!

And Mu Li is not worried about his identity at all, and the other party will find out.

Chai Cheng is located in the middle of nowhere, even as the city lord of Chai Cheng, he has never been to the capital of Wu State, let alone seen the prime minister's youngest son!

On weekdays, the tasks are also completed by scouts!

After casting a reassuring look at the cold rain with uneasiness in his eyes, he closed the door.

Walking on the staircase, Mu Li saw more than a dozen people in official uniforms standing below.

The only person sitting at this moment is the city lord of Chai City, Mu Li thought to himself.

"Crunch Crunch"

The sound of stamping on the floor continued, and immediately everyone's eyes were drawn to it.

The city lord also immediately got up and walked to the staircase to prepare to greet him.

"Lord Shizi has come from afar, and the minister has missed the welcome, and I hope that Lord Shizi will forgive me. The city lord said respectfully, but what Mu Li saw in his eyes was a vigilance.

Mu Li waved his hand, walked down the stairs, sat down where the city lord had just sat down, and looked the city lord of Chai City up and down.

He looked to be in his forties, tall and thin, with high shoulders, raised eyebrows, two drooping beards, and a face that looked like that of a wicked man of the ninth generation.

"Lord Shizi has come from afar, could it be that there is any order from above?" the city lord asked with a hunched waist and a look of disbelief in his eyes.

Just as Mu Li guessed, since he entered Chai City, someone had already told the city lord about him.

But because Mu Li did not go directly to the city lord's mansion, but stayed in a winery in the city, it was only because the city lord relaxed a little, and he was entitled to be a second ancestor to come and see the scenery.

It's just that yesterday's incident made the city lord feel like a demonstration.

No, early in the morning, he hurriedly rushed over from the City Lord's Mansion to test the tone of this second ancestor.

"It's okay, it's just that this son is idle and has nothing to do, running to play. Mu Li glanced at him with a reckless look in his eyes, leaned back on the table with his hands back, and crossed Erlang's legs.

The city lord twisted his beard on both sides with both hands and looked at Mu Li's attitude fixedly.

After a while, I murmured in my heart, the person who came is not good!

"If the prince doesn't give up, I don't know if you can give up on the face and go to the minister's mansion to get together? The city lord's eyes rolled and he sincerely invited.

The city lord glanced at Mu Li's eyes, and when he saw the other party glaring, he immediately lowered, "It's okay, it just so happens that this son hasn't been there yet." ”

Mu Li agreed very refreshingly, and the whole person stood up, carrying his back with one hand and a folding fan in the other, and asked the city lord to lead the way in front of him.

The city lord hurriedly agreed, nodded and led the way in front.

While talking to Mu Li about the war during this time, he talked about the scenery and culture here.

Mu Li must not be interested in landscape culture, but he can't pay too much attention to the war situation described by the other party, otherwise he will not be able to meet his own personality, and he is likely to be discovered by the other party.

However, when he learned that 30,000 wolf and tiger divisions would be mobilized from Yecheng in half a year, Mu Li couldn't help but be impulsive in the corners of his eyes. I thought to myself, 'It looks like my plan has to be carried out quickly.'"

The Castle Lord's Mansion is located in the central city, on the most prominent central square.

As soon as Mu Li entered the central city, he saw several patrols of varying numbers.

At this moment, as the city lord stepped into the mansion together, the arrangement of troops inside made Mu Li have two big heads.

If you want to steal the Tiger Talisman, the difficulty is not ordinary.

The Tiger Fu is divided into two, and only when the two are combined together can the use of the army be mobilized.

Because the Wolf Gate Pass was attacking the White Emperor City on a large scale, it was the King of Wu who handed over the Tiger Talisman to the trusted Chai City Lord early to help him raise troops in time to help the Wolf Gate Pass.

Mu Li came here precisely to steal all the two halves of the tiger talisman.

But now that the whereabouts of the tiger talisman are not known, the guards around the city lord's mansion can't help but make Mu Li feel difficult.

The city lord did not take Mu Li to visit other places.

After stepping through the Hanging Flower Gate, Mu Li was arranged in the north room where VIPs were specially entertained.

Mu Li naturally didn't want to let go of such a great opportunity, and kept looking for opportunities to 'visit' around.

But the city owner is old and sophisticated, and it seems that he deliberately wants to hide something.

Therefore, the two chatted until the time of lunch, and Mu Li did not have a chance to leave the north room once.

In the end, after having lunch with the city lord, in the eyes of the city lord, he reluctantly returned to Daxing Winery.

......

"Squeak. ”

The door of the house, made of fine red almond wood, was pushed open from the outside.

Leng Yu, who was alone in the room, changed his face sharply, hurriedly looked at the door, and said angrily, "Who?"

"It's me, Yu'er. Mu Li walked in and closed the door again.

"Sir?" Leng Yu was startled, and then immediately threw himself into Mu Li's arms, "Sir, they didn't do anything to you, did they?"

Mu Li's body trembled, feeling the sudden surge of body temperature in his back, and he couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

patted the little hand in his arms on his chest, and said with a smile, "Fool, just a little city lord, how dare you touch your husband." ”

"Woo woo, sir, can you not leave the rain alone next time... Yu'er just wants to follow Mr. As long as Mr. can be around, Yu'er is not afraid of anything. The cold rain that rushed into Mu Li's arms suddenly made a slight sobbing sound.

"Okay, don't worry, Yu'er, wherever I go in the future, I will definitely bring Yu'er. Mu Li half-squatted, stared at Leng Yu, and reached out to gently wipe away the tears on her cheek.
