Iron Wolf City, the City Lord's Mansion.

Early in the morning, the Longxiao City Lord got up early, and according to the previous practice, he was ready to go to inspect the guards of the City Guard Corps for training.

It's just that today, the City Lord's Mansion welcomed two special guests.

One of them is King Jing.

At the beginning, when the governor of the southern army ordered the construction of King Jing's mansion, Long Xiao naturally knew about it, and he also went to visit King Jing, but unfortunately, he never saw King Jing's face.

Unexpectedly, today, His Royal Highness King Jing actually visited in person.

"Lord of the city, King Jing is visiting, are we ......?"

The old housekeeper's words were a little slurred, obviously a little hesitant, and some words, whether he should say them or not.

"It's nothing, just say it. ”

Long Xiao glanced at the old butler and couldn't help frowning.

This old butler is the steward left by the previous city lord, and naturally has some understanding of the situation in southern Xinjiang.

"According to the will of your subordinates, it is better for you to avoid guests, city lord. The old butler said slowly.

"Oh?" Long Xiao stared at the old butler, "You should tell me why the city lord should avoid His Royal Highness King Jing." ”

"The truth of self-preservation, the city lord should understand, right?"

The old butler smiled quite vaguely, "Lord City Lord, the subordinates are all they say, of course, what to do, the subordinates are naturally headed by the orders of the city lord." ”

"Mingzhe protects himself?"

Long Xiao snorted lightly, in the first three months after he came to Iron Wolf City, the old city lord explained a lot of things to him, the army of Iron Wolf City, in a sense, did not completely belong to the local garrison, and the forces in it, coiled and rubbed, were inextricably linked with the southern military.

Although he brought a group of brothers from the Black Armor War Cavalry Army when he came to Longxiao, it does not mean that he can truly be the master of the house on the one-third of an acre of land in this Iron Wolf City.

"We are all the courtiers of His Majesty the Emperor, His Royal Highness King Jing is the royal family, that is, our master, the master is here, how can there be a reason for the courtiers to avoid it?"

Long Xiao ignored the old butler's dissuasion, casually threw the spear he had practiced every morning back on the weapon rack, wiped his sweat, and strode to the main hall.

The old butler sighed lightly, shook his head and smiled, "I'm still young after all!"

......

"Subordinate, see His Royal Highness King Jing!"

Long Xiao walked out of the main hall quickly, and before anyone arrived, the voice had already arrived.

The next moment, Long Xiao stood still in the main hall, his body was straight, this was the military quality he had trained in the Black Armor War Cavalry, and it would not change for the rest of his life.

On the top of the main hall, Mo Feng, who was sitting on the main seat, hurriedly stood up and laughed loudly: "Longxiao City Lord, I'm really embarrassed to come to disturb you so early." ”

Only then did Long Xiao raise his head, this His Royal Highness King Jing was much weaker than he imagined, and it was hard to imagine how His Majesty the Emperor would send such a prince to southern Xinjiang.

With him alone, how can he suppress an old fox like Yuan Tiangang?

It's just that when he saw the young man beside King Jing, his eyelids couldn't help jumping, and he exclaimed, "Ling ...... Brother Ling!"

"Hahaha!"

Ling Feng smiled freely, "General Long, it's been a long time! No, it should be the Dragon City Lord now!"

"What a general, city lord. Long Xiao laughed and said, "Brother is polite when he says this, hahaha!"

On the same day, Ling Feng and Long Xiao met in this Iron Wolf City, and Long Xiao repeatedly persuaded Ling Feng to join the army and serve the country.

Unexpectedly, after only half a year, they will meet again.

"My brother is still the same as before, he hasn't changed at all!" Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and smiled.

Mo Feng on the side was stunned, Ling Feng and this Longxiao City Lord still knew each other!

Long Xiao smiled faintly, "No wonder my brother was reluctant to join our Black Armor War Cavalry at the beginning, it turns out that my brother is someone from King Jing's side." ”

"Brother said with a smile, I didn't know King Jing back then. ”

Ling Feng shook his head and smiled: "Speaking of which, I met King Jing, and I was still in the Heavenly Academy. ”

Mo Feng hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Brother Feng, let's not let King Jing be short in private, since the Dragon City Lord is Brother Feng's brother, then naturally he is also the brother of this prince." Forget it, I still have to call you Brother Long!"

"How can you stand this!" Long Xiao's forehead was secretly sweating, and he hurriedly said: "No, no, no, His Royal Highness is a prince, and his subordinates are just courtiers." ”

"In private, you don't have to treat me as a prince. Mo Feng smiled slightly and bowed to Long Xiao.

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes and smiled, this Mo Feng is still on the road, he knows how to climb the pole, and he will have a friendship with Long Xiao first.

The three of them talked about the old days for a while, and after coming and going, Long Xiao also acquiesced to Mo Feng's call of him Brother Long, but he never dared to open his mouth to call Brother Mo.

After all, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers!

After a period of greetings, Ling Feng got to the point, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Long, you should probably also know about His Majesty's dispatch of King Jing to the south to supervise the army, right?"

"Well, I've heard of this, but it's just ......"

Long Xiao glanced at Mo Feng, but still stubbornly said: "It's just that His Royal Highness King Jing, as a prison army, did not guard the fortress, but retreated to Iron Wolf City for refuge, which is somewhat unreasonable." ”

This Long Xiao is a person who has always been upright, if he were an old fritter who had been in the officialdom for decades, he would not say these words anyway.

"That's the key. ”

Ling Feng said in a deep voice: "Brother Long, do you really think that King Jing himself is willing to withdraw from Tianmang Fortress and hide in the turtle shell of King Jing's Mansion as a turtle with a shrunken head?"

"Brother Ling, what do you mean by that?" Long Xiao frowned, for many years, he had faintly noticed something.

"Yuan Tiangang's old fox, self-respecting, doesn't take the four princes in his eyes at all, and even puts the four princes under house arrest in Jingwangfu in disguise, you say, what does this old fox want to do?"

Ling Feng slapped the table and said indignantly: "This old fox, I think he wants to rebel!"

"Make ...... Rebellion?"

Long Xiao's eyelids jumped wildly, this kind of thing, Ling Feng actually dared to say it casually, his guts were too fat.

He swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said with a sneer: "Brother Ling, don't dare to say this!"

It was Mo Feng who was also taken aback by Ling Feng's remarks.

In the empire, the person who dares to say that Yuan Tiangang wants to rebel is estimated to be the only one who is Ling Feng!

But if he has objections, it is absolutely impossible, this old guy has not swelled to that extent.

"Disobeying His Majesty the Emperor's decree, what do you say this is not a rebellion?"

Ling Feng snorted lightly, and said with a straight face: "Then Yuan Tiangang regards His Royal Highness King Jing as a mustard, playing with it, even the prince dares to play like this, in this southern Xinjiang, hasn't he become the emperor of the soil?"

"This ......" Long Xiao frowned, looked at Mo Feng, and sure enough, found that Mo Feng's brows were deeply locked, it seemed that what Ling Feng said was not all exaggeration.

"Brother Long, you should understand that the Black Armor War Cavalry is an army directly under the orders of the Imperial Family, and now the Fourth Prince has no real power in the Southern Army, and he is not even qualified to set foot in Tianmang Fortress. Think about it, what will your situation be?"

"Right now, there is a demon clan offense, then Yuan Tiangang has no leisure to take care of you, once the war is stable, I'm sure, the old fox will definitely not allow you to continue to be active under your nose as a royal force, right?"

Ling Feng's words were heartbroken, and Long Xiao's brows were wrinkled tighter and tighter, and then he thought of the words that the previous city lord and the old housekeeper said to him, this Yuan Tiangang's power in Southern Xinjiang was indeed too big.

The name of the royal family, in this southern Xinjiang, is far inferior to the name of Yuan Tiangang.

It is undoubtedly a hidden danger to the royal family and the empire!
