The weather was sunny and the sun was shining.

On the street at the entrance of the Shangwan Inn, more than a hundred city guards in armor guarded here, and they were waiting for the Shangwan Inn.

Opposite these soldiers was a group dressed in green clothes, numbering twenty, each with a standard spear in his hand, and each with a fierce air on his body.

The spears in the hands of these twenty people were much better than the spears held by the city guards, and these twenty people faced the encirclement of more than a hundred people, without the slightest stage fright, and some even had excited eyes and were eager to fight with these soldiers in front of them.

In front of the team of twenty people was a fat man dressed in silk and satin, who was the shopkeeper of the Shangwan Inn, Sun Qian.

Facing the encirclement of more than 100 city guards in front of him, he turned the jade wrench on the thumb of his right hand, frowned, and said, "Commander Chen, what do you mean by this?

The leader of this hundred-person team is named Chen Mobai, his age is about forty years old, he is one of the top ten commanders of the Wancheng City Guard, his strength is at the second-rate low level, if it is placed in normal times, he is definitely a master in this Wancheng, but now, it is nothing at all. Too many people in the rivers and lakes poured into Wancheng, which raised the average strength of Wancheng's martial artists by a big margin.

If it was placed in normal times, he would never dare to offend this Shangwan Inn, Shangwan Inn has a background that leads to the sky, plus this Sun Qian has raised the twentieth second-rate master of the rivers and lakes as a thug, if it is not a last resort, he will definitely not have a conflict with Shangwan Inn.

But now he had to turn his face with Shangwan Inn, because before they set out to investigate the martial artist's path, the city lord Nie Mantian had said that no matter what the force, no matter who it was, all of them would be treated equally. He felt that he was unlucky, he was assigned to the street where the Shangwan Inn is located, and now he is against Sun Gan, the shopkeeper of the Shangwan Inn Inn, if he is hated, how will he mix it up in the future?

So after hearing Sun Gan's words, he said with a tangled face: "Shopkeeper Sun, you have also seen the orders issued in the City Lord's Mansion, and we are acting in accordance with the decrees! Don't put the accounts on me, I just follow the orders to run errands, if you have any questions, you can go to our city lord to talk." ”

"Commander Chen, you investigate the road guide and implement the Wancheng decree, my Sun Qian has nothing to say. But you actually found out that I was at the Wan Inn, so you don't believe that I went to the Wan Inn!"

At this moment, Sun Qian did not look as groveling as Shangguan Xiaoyao at all, he was the shopkeeper of the Shangwan Inn, backed by the Hongnong Yang family, and usually didn't even sell the face of the city lord, let alone a commander Chen Mobai?

Hearing Sun Gan's decisive refusal of his request, Chen Mobai's heart was full of bitterness. He wanted to turn around and leave, but if he left like this, the city lord would blame him, and he wouldn't want to be the commander!

Believe you go to the Wan Inn?

You special Shangwan Inn only recognizes money and doesn't recognize people, even if the person staying in the hotel is a wanted criminal, you will turn a blind eye, how can I believe that you go to the Wan Inn?

Chen Mobai slandered Sun Gan, looking at Sun Gan with a resolute attitude, he took a deep breath, and said: "Shopkeeper Sun, the matter of Lu Yin is very important, the three sects and nine streams are all mixed into Wancheng at this time, for the safety of Wancheng, for the reputation of your Shangwan Inn, please also ask Shopkeeper Sun to get out of the way, let me go in to investigate Lu Yin!"

Although he didn't want to fall out with Sun Gan, it was his duty to investigate the path of the warriors in the rivers and lakes, so even if he fell out with Sun Gan at this time, he had to enter this Shangwan Inn to check the road guide!

Thinking of this, he muttered in an inaudible voice: "Lao Tzu is under the jurisdiction of Nie Mantian, the city lord of Wancheng, not you, Sun Qian, no matter how hard your backer is, no matter how many thugs you have, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that you really dare to intercept me on behalf of the official." ”

This muttering made him instantly full of courage, and he immediately said with a resolute attitude: "Shopkeeper Sun, please cooperate, it is my duty to inspect the guide, if you insist on blocking me again, don't blame Chen for being rude!"

Hearing this, Sun Gan's eyes narrowed and said, "Chen Mobai, are you insisting on going to the Wan Inn with me!"

"Definitely, this should be me asking Shopkeeper Sun, are you insisting on preventing me from performing my official duties?"

Chen Mobai, who was still a little entangled just now, still had an honorific title when he spoke to Sun Qian just now, and completely turned his face at this moment.

......

Shangwan Inn, Tianzi No. 1 room, Shangguan Xiaoyao saw what happened downstairs clearly through the window, and saw that Chen Mobai insisted on his opinion, he smiled and said: "In a remote place like Wancheng, there are people who abide by their duties, this Chen Mobai has principles in his heart!"

When the maid Mei'er heard this, she said gently: "Childe, although this Chen Mobai abides by his duties, he is afraid that it is still a little difficult to come and investigate the route of the customers of this Shangwan Inn." ”

Lan'er also said: "This Sun Qian is not easy to match, he has raised the twentieth second-rate peak master under his hands, since this lineup has been laid out, he will not let this Chen Baimo go in to investigate the way." ”

Zhu'er frowned and said, "Childe, these people in the rivers and lakes regard the country's laws and regulations as nothing, if it continues like this, the country is afraid that it will be chaotic." ”

When Ju'er heard this, she added: "As the old saying goes, Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and chivalry uses martial arts to violate the ban. These people in the rivers and lakes all occupy a little bit of ability and show off their power everywhere, and the state clearly stipulates that there must be a way out for a long journey, but these guys have forced Na Nie to open the city gate and cancel the curfew, but it is a bit too much. ”

Listening to the discussion of the four maids, Shangguan Xiaoyao shook his head with a smile and said: "Nie Mantian also had to do it as a last resort, today he restored the normal order of this Wancheng and investigated the path of the martial artist, although it has not caused a riot, but it is not far from the riot. ”

Hearing this analysis, Mei'er immediately laughed and said, "Childe, if there is a riot, are we going to take action?"

Mei'er is belligerent, and since she became Shangguan Xiaoyao's maid, she has occasionally been instructed in martial arts by Shangguan Xiaoyao, which has benefited her a lot.

It's just that following Shangguan Xiaoyao's side doesn't have many opportunities to make a move, so that she herself doesn't understand what her combat strength is.

Now listening to Shangguan Xiaoyao's analysis that there may be a riot in this city, she immediately became interested, and she couldn't wait for the riot to start immediately, and then as long as Shangguan Xiaoyao gave an order, she would take the sword and behead the bandits!

Looking at Mei'er's eager appearance, Shangguan Xiaoyao chuckled: "Mei'er, the girl's family, it's not a good thing to think about fighting and killing all day long. ”

When Mei'er heard this, she was a little embarrassed, her face was slightly red, and she said playfully: "Childe, isn't it under your guidance, Mei'er's martial arts path has made great progress, and I want to try my ability." ”

"Haha, there must be a chance to test your combat power, but not now!"

Saying that, Shangguan said casually and seriously: "The matter of Wancheng is just the beginning, since someone has the idea of "Tianshan Nine Swords Diagram", I am afraid that the rivers and lakes will be even more chaotic in the future." But this is also more interesting, I want to see when those secret cow ghosts and snake gods will jump out, and when the time comes, they will be cleaned up one by one, once and for all!"

When Mei'er, Lan'er, Zhu'er, and Ju'er heard this, their expressions froze, and they understood that Shangguan Xiaoyao was serious.

As Shangguan Xiaoyao's maids, they often stay with him, so they naturally understand his temper, they all know that Shangguan Xiaoyao is a person who doesn't like trouble very much, and this time someone in the rivers and lakes has the idea of playing "Tianshan Nine Swords", which is destined to set off a bloody storm in the rivers and lakes, and I am afraid that even the royal family will be affected at that time.

Since Shangguan Xiaoyao in this life is the crown prince of Zhao State, he definitely does not want to see the royal family of Zhao State threatened.

He came out to travel this time, and since he encountered the matter of Ximen Villa, he naturally would not sit idly by.

This is an opportunity to eliminate the cancer of the rivers and lakes, and now the gangs and sects in the rivers and lakes are tumors in the eyes of Shangguan Xiaoyao, and they are disobedient to the orders of the imperial court, and there are more people who do illegal and criminal activities behind their backs.

Over time, after most warriors commit sins, they often choose to join a force to protect themselves, and for those warriors who break the law and discipline, the gangs are their backstage, and they are the life-saving talisman that can confront the national judicial organs!

This phenomenon has been around for a long time, just like the overlord who was killed by the black-clothed guards before, after committing a heinous crime, he actually chose to join a gang, was protected by the gang, and escaped the law!

In the final analysis, all this is due to the fact that the royal family of Zhao State does not strictly control domestic forces, the gangs in the rivers and lakes are an old disease of Zhao State, and since Shangguan Xiaoyao is the prince of Zhao State in this life, he will naturally not leave a piece of land outside the law in his own country!

And after the four maids heard Shangguan Yao's words 'once and for all', they couldn't help but be horrified.

They have no doubt about Shangguan Xiaoyao's strength, but if they want to openly make enemies of the entire rivers and lakes, I am afraid that the royal family of Zhao State will be exhausted, and they will not have this capital!

Thinking of this, Ju'er asked tentatively, "Childe, are you going to take the entire rivers and lakes?"

"A group of rabble wandering outside the law! With a nice name, if you don't take the law in your eyes, if such a cancer is allowed to grow, the world will be in danger!"

Shangguan Yaoyao's eyes were full of contempt, and when he mentioned the word 'Jianghu', he only had contempt.
