Chapter 487: Grace and Might
As soon as Wen Yuan left, Zhang Li and the others walked in from outside the door. They had all listened to the conversation in the hall just now, but until this time, they still couldn't believe their ears!
"So, you are now the lord of a city?the most powerful person in Tianque City?" everyone stared at Dongfang Yingfeng for a long time, Lan Ling couldn't help but be surprised in his heart at first, and asked with some hesitation.
Dongfang Yingfeng saw everyone's expressions, and his heart was full of fun for a while. This Lan Ling usually has nothing to do and even raises the bar by himself, so why not take this opportunity to scare him?
After making up his mind, Dongfang Yingfeng's face turned pale, and after scanning the circle with cold and majestic eyes, he shouted: "Bold, is this how you talk to the city lord!"
It's just that what he didn't expect was that after him made such a fuss. Not only were the people not afraid, but even the doubts they had just had disappeared.
"Cut! you don't look like the king of a country even if you wear the imperial robe!" Lan Ling was more suitable to directly raise his middle finger and said with disdain towards the east against the wind.
The corners of Dongfang Windward's mouth twitched, and as he continued to integrate into this world, he hadn't done this gesture for a long time. This is still the beginning of the meeting of several people, Dongfang Yingfeng did it a few times in order to get along with them harmoniously.
What he didn't expect was that he found a familiar feeling from Lan Ling again today. Dongfang Yingfeng suddenly had a smile on the corner of his mouth, his nose wrinkled, and he returned the salute with his backhand.
Seeing this, Zhang Li and the others also laughed. The past is as if it happened yesterday, vividly.
The hall was filled with joy, with memories of the past and congratulations on the experience of the Oriental Windward. And the only thing that is different from everyone else is the only "outsider" Liu Feiluan here.
Although she is also honored to be the city lord of Dongfang Yingfeng, she still has some emotion. Of course he was not jealous, nor was he disdainful. It's just a simple recollection of his past.
She once had the opportunity to become the lord of a city, but that was at the cost of joining the Tianfeng family. In the end, she refused, but even so, she still left her with the reputation of "Allure at first sight".
Liu Feiluan has never regretted his decision, especially when he saw that Dongfang Yingfeng easily sat on the position of city lord today. She felt even more that her original decision was right, and her future would definitely not be limited to this kind of projectile land.
"Do you want to discuss this matter with Master Quanyan?" Suddenly, Zhang Li remembered something, yes, and interrupted the others who were playing and laughing with a light cough and asked.
"By the way, you reminded me!" Dongfang Yingfeng said with a pat on his thigh, and he was patronizing and playing, almost forgetting about business.
Although he did not refuse the reward, it did not mean that he wanted it. The Emperor's decree has been delivered, and if he really refuses, it will only make both sides look bad. This is also a very important reason why he did not hesitate at that time!
"When they come back, don't decide just yet. We'll discuss everything when I get back from the City Lord's Mansion. Dongfang Yingfeng said and stood up and walked towards the door.
Zhang Li naturally knew what Dongfang Yingfeng meant, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I know how to do it!"
Looking at the back of the eastward wind, which had disappeared, the atmosphere in the hall became warm again. Everyone, including Yun Li, who is usually the most calm and calm, couldn't hide the excitement and smile on his face. and Lan Ling and the others chattered together, imagining a better life in Tianque City in the future.
Tianque City, the city lord's mansion
Dongfang Yingfeng walked into the door, and at this time, the huge front hall was full of people, and there were bursts of quarrels from time to time.
"Everyone, it's already like this, and it's useless for us to say anything. And that's not something we can decide, is it?"
"I'm not angry, I'm just stating a fact! Let Dongfang Windward take the position of city lord? This is simply a joke! A joke that makes the cities of the northwest, and even all parts of the empire, mock us!"
"That's right, what can a little hairy boy understand? Does he know how many things happen in Tianque City every day? Does he know how to deal with it?"
"But the people who came also said that this is the emperor's order! The emperor's decree has also been issued, and I don't know when he will come to take office, so I advise you to be careful when you speak. Besides, the current City Lord's Mansion is not just inhabited by our own people. ”
"What if you hear that? Can he still drive us away? You are willing to be told to play by a child, I don't want to. ”
"I don't want you to leave, it just so happens that I don't have enough rooms here. Dongfang snorted coldly, withdrew his steps towards the backyard, and turned and walked into the hall.
Originally, he didn't want to meet these people now, after all, it was still unknown whether he would serve in the end. However, these guys are too arrogant and don't take themselves seriously.
When you arrive, someone with a heart will find out that if you leave without saying a word, it will really become a joke!
Seeing Dongfang Yingfeng walking into the hall, the originally noisy hall was suddenly audible, and many people looked at Dongfang Yingfeng with a trace of embarrassment and an indescribable awkwardness. A few people who were close to the east windward wanted to say hello, but their lips moved a few times, and finally nothing came out.
"I know a lot of you aren't convinced, but that's okay. I've always been kind, so is there anything we can discuss? Dongfang Fengfeng glanced around, and suddenly said with a smile.
"For example, what you just said, I faintly heard that some people disobey discipline and look down on me. I can understand all this, after all, it is really not suitable for me to lead you at my age. In this way, I will not force others to make things difficult, and I will not delay your future. If you are not willing to stay, I will allow you to leave. ”
"This, the lord of the castle laughed. We are just chatting, analyzing the current situation, and discussing how to help you manage Tianque City in the future. Maybe the tone of the voice is a little excited, I hope you don't get me wrong!" A person who had maintained the eastern windward before saw that many companions did not reply, and hesitated for a moment and replied stubbornly.
"Is that so? I don't think it means that some people think that I am not capable of managing Tianque City, which is complicated by affairs. Dongfang Yingfeng said as he took a few steps forward, standing in front of a tall thin man sitting at the table, staring at him.
Among the many opposing voices before, this one was the most active, if it weren't for the wrong occasion, Dongfang Yingfeng would still think that he was fighting the Confucianism in his tongue? Like a mad dog, as soon as he heard that someone defended him, he would scold.
"Do I know you?" Dongfang Yingfeng asked with blazing eyes as he looked up at the tall man who was covered with a layer of fine cold sweat.
The villain has heard of your deeds, but he has never had the opportunity to see the truth. The man replied with a shaky voice.
"That means that we usually meet each other, and there is no injustice or hatred!"
"The villain doesn't dare!" Hearing Dongfang Yingfeng's words, the thin and tall man's legs trembled and he collapsed on the ground in fright.
"Don't be nervous, I can't beat you!" Dongfang Yingfeng chuckled and continued: "What kind of job do you have?"
"The villain is just an ordinary ...... Ordinary guards. ”
"What about you?" Dongfang Yingfeng nodded and turned to the person who had just replied.
"The villains too! We're all the same. ”
"And what about your commander?" asked Dongfang Yingfeng after looking around in surprise.
"I was called to the backyard by the lord of the city, and yesterday I heard the lord behind me say that it seems that he was killed in the backyard by the lord of the city!"
Dongfang Yingfeng suddenly realized, and the corpses that were piled up full of four houses sounded, and now it seems that not only are they the secret guards of the City Lord's Mansion, but even the powerful front yard commander is among them.
"From now on, you will take the position of commander for the time being, and integrate these people first. Those who don't want to stay, those who don't obey discipline, those who speak disrespectfully, in short, clean up all the problems for me. It doesn't matter how many people you can stay, but if you don't want to do it, you can leave!"
"The subordinates obey the order! The villain Miao Xin must only look forward to the city lord and the horse, and do his best to serve the dogs and horses. The man quickly knelt on the ground amid many astonished glances and swore an oath to the east.
"Do things well, no matter who is the city lord, you will not treat the loyal subordinates who are willing to do things!" Dongfang Yingfeng glanced at the many guards who were surprised, envious, or regretful, and chuckled towards the backyard.
