Following the prestige, Yuan Hong found that the young man who came to him was one of Wang Chong's henchmen in the case prosecution department, and there was another young man with a national character face standing next to him.

"Zheng Yan has seen the city lord!"

Zheng Yan saluted Yuan Hong very respectfully.

"Security Division Si Cheng Liu Dazhi see the city lord!"

The young man with the national character face followed Zheng Yan to pay homage.

Smiling and nodding, Yuan Hong said: "I can't remember the name Zheng Yan clearly, but the face is still very familiar, after all, we have cooperated more than once." As for Liu Sicheng, I have a good eye. ”

Liu Dazhi smiled and said, "Hey, I was promoted not long ago, and it's normal that you haven't seen me." At the same time as me, there was also Brother Zheng. ”

Zheng Yan immediately followed up: "The city lord disappeared inexplicably for three months, and the burden fell on the deputy city lord. In view of the limited energy, Brother Wang has resigned from the post of Si Cheng, and Liu Sizai promoted me. Hey, during your absence, city lord, don't mention how worried everyone is about you. ”

With a look of shame on his face, Yuan Hong said: "I'm sorry, I made everyone worried." The two brothers are optimistic, which means that they are rare talents, and they hope to make endless efforts for the prosperity of Yichun City. ”

Liu Dazhi said the award repeatedly, while pointing to the city gate guard beside him, and scolded: "If you want to say that you don't recognize the city lord and refuse him to enter the city, I don't blame you, after all, it's time to close the gate." You can hit people at will, and it is absolutely unforgivable. Tomorrow you will go and collect this month's stipend, and you don't have to do it anymore. ”

As soon as the guards heard that they were going to be smashed off the iron rice bowl, they knelt down in front of Yuan Hong, snorted and cried, and pleaded: "We should die if we have eyes and don't know gold and jade! I beg the city lord to give us a chance to mend our ways!"

As soon as he heard that they had to feed the whole family, Yuan Hong, who was born in an ordinary family, inevitably felt compassion. He turned his body to Liu Dazhi and said slowly: "Those who don't know are not guilty, and I don't care very much." As for beating people at will, punishment is naturally inevitable, but it is indeed cruel to let them roll up the shop and leave. Liu Sicheng, let's see if you can change the punishment method. ”

Liu Dazhi hesitated for a moment, then said to the guards: "Since the city lord has spoken, then I will give you another chance to correct your mistakes." From tomorrow you will no longer be guarding the gates, but sweeping the streets. If I find out you're lazy, I won't give you a second chance. ”

It was rare to keep his job, and the guards said hello again and again, and thanked Yuan Hong again and again.

At this moment, Liang Yun'er led the white horse forward. Yuan Hong introduced her to the two Si Cheng, and said that this was his fiancée, and I was afraid that he would have to bother the two of them when he encountered tricky things in the future.

Zheng Yan and Liu Dazhi patted their chests and said, the affairs of the city lord's wife are equivalent to the affairs of the city lord, and the affairs of the city lord are naturally their own affairs, and it is good to have instructions as long as they are told.

In this way, several people entered the city with a smile.

When I returned to the City Lord's Mansion, I happened to bump into the butler head-on. Seeing Yuan Hong, the housekeeper was so shocked that he dropped the teapot in his hand.

Seeing this, Yuan Hong smiled refreshingly and did not speak. The housekeeper, who had been stunned for a long time, said with a crying voice: "Young master, you can count yourself back! The whole mansion is worried about you, and you can't sleep well—no, I'll go and inform the old city lord and the deputy city lord Wang now!"

Before Yuan Hong could reply, the housekeeper Lao Xia had already rushed out of the City Lord's Mansion in a puff of smoke.

After a while, Xie Xu and Wang Chong came together. Seeing Yuan Hong, who had been missing for a long time, Wang Chong shook his arms excitedly, and sighed that the sky had eyes.

Xie Xu didn't say a word, just stroked Yuan Hong's forehead, and the corners of his eyes were full of tears.

"Father-in-law, I've worried you! And Brother Wang, thanks to your handling of the affairs of the whole city. ”

Yuan Hong hugged Xie Xu, who had added a lot of gray hair, and gently patted his back to soothe his sad heart.

When the old city lord's mood calmed down a little, Yuan Hong told him what happened to him.

The listeners were all shocked, they didn't dare to imagine that Yuan Hong would be able to retreat from such a dangerous underworld, let alone that he had actually seen the legendary god of the underworld.

After chatting for a long time, the housekeeper suddenly came to announce that the meal was ready.

On the table of the Eight Immortals, while Yuan Hong expressed his intentions, he also tried to further enhance the relationship with Zheng Yan, Liu Dazhi and others.

In his opinion, young talents such as Wang Chong, Zheng Yan and Liu Dazhi are the most suitable objects for him to associate with and woo, after all, the age gap is smaller, there are more common topics, and in comparison, these people are more likely to sincerely obey him.

Zheng Yan, Liu Dazhi and others also expressed their frank minds, and bluntly swore to follow him, and from then on they shared honor and disgrace.

..........

Not long after everyone left, the "big power" Chunxiao girl hurriedly entered the house with the pipa in her arms, and after seeing Yuan Hong, she said with tears on her face: "I thought you were ...... adults"

Yuan Hong smiled: "You think I'm dead, so I went back to Zuixiang Building to sing, right?"

Twisting his body, Chunxiao said coquettishly: "The slave family doesn't mean this. The nobles have their own natural appearance, and you are sure to live a hundred years old. In your absence, the tunes played by the slaves are also much more boring. This person will be heartbroken if he has less money, and even more heartache if he has less soulmates. ”

With a wave of her hand, Yuan Hong asked her to play and sing a song to see if her skills had declined.

Chunxiao plucked the pipa strings very freely and sang in her soft voice: "The sun is gently shining in the warm room, and it is another good weather." I can't wait to wake you up and suck your droplets. Guess where you dreamed, and I would gently lie in the crook of your arm. A kiss distance, and when you wake up naturally, I'll pretend to close my eyes......"

While enjoying the mouth-watering song, Yuan Hong quietly took out the Divine Eye Magic Mirror and put it in front of him.

"Wow, dense forest!"

He cried out in embarrassment.

"The slave family is obviously singing with your eyes closed, not a dense forest, my lord, you heard it wrong. ”

Putting her fingers off the strings of the pipa, the confidence on her face fully showed that she was right and Yuan Hong was wrong.

"Oh, I'm not saying that there is a forest in the lute song, but that there is a forest hidden behind the lute. By the way, what's the name of this piece?"

"Back to my lord, it's called 'The Secret That Is Not a Secret.' ”

"I see. Ho, the song is like its person, not the power of the power, the singing is very good, and the skill has not been reduced at all. ”

"Master Xie complimented. Next, the slave family will play another song "Summer of Love". ”

"Isn't it almost winter, just sing a song "A Fire in Winter" and warm up with music, isn't it good!"

Chunxiao looked confused, as if she hadn't heard this song. Just as she was about to speak, Liang Yun'er returned from bathing and gave her a cold face: "Suck and suck, I will hear the prodigal song from afar, and I will not be ashamed." It's so late, why don't you go back to rest, what are you doing here!"

Seeing that Liang Yun'er was displeased, Yuan Hong asked the housekeeper to arrange for Chunxiao to go to the West Wing to rest. After that, he pulled Liang Yun'er aside and sat down, complaining: "I think at the beginning, I played football during the day and pesticides at night, and life was interesting." In contrast, it's a lot more boring now, isn't it normal to listen to tunes? ”

Hearing this, Liang Yun'er touched Yuan Hong's face with her tender little hands, with an aggrieved look on her face, and said, "I just don't want other women to get too close to you, especially since I haven't officially passed the door yet." ”
