"Knock knock!"

Early in the morning, Pang He was awakened from his dream by Ma Quan's hurried knock on the door, and when he opened the door with a dark face, the scene in front of him made him drowsy and thrown out of the clouds in the blink of an eye. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At this moment, I saw Ma Quan, who had an aggrieved face, standing tremblingly in front of Pang He's door, and behind Ma Quan was actually followed by more than a dozen big men in imperial robes, but behind this group of people, Ye Qiuzheng, who had an indifferent face, was standing in the courtyard with a graceful face, watching the flowers and plants planted by Pang He with great interest. But what made Pang He's heart beat the most was that at this moment, inside and outside his courtyard gate, there were actually densely packed with ill-intentioned Imperial Sect disciples, and there were as many as fifty or sixty people to say the least, and it seemed that the people who came were not good!

As the city lord of the Western Imperial City, Pang He naturally knew Ye Qiu's identity well, so as soon as he recognized Ye Qiu, a hypocritical smile instantly appeared on his originally gloomy face.

"It turned out that Brother Ye was here, and Pang Mou was disrespectful!" Pang He secretly glared at Ma Quan as he spoke, and then pushed away Ma Quan, who looked aggrieved, and walked towards Ye Qiu in the courtyard with a smile on his face, Pang He secretly thought in his heart, Ye Qiu is a disciple of the Emperor Sect, the so-called Three Treasures Hall for nothing, he came to the Emperor today to do an errand for the Emperor Sect, and the Emperor Sect's errand is either related to Gongyin, or related to the Southwest Chamber of Commerce, so instead of waiting for Ye Qiu to ask, it is better to take the initiative to explain it yourself, "That...... Brother Ye is here to inquire about this month's tribute silver? I have already explained to one of your other brothers before, this month's tribute was already ready, but halfway through, a Southwest Chamber of Commerce was killed, so this money was not given to ......."

"City Lord Pang!" Before Pang He could finish speaking, Ye Qiu suddenly waved his hand at him, "I'm not here today for the matter of paying tribute!"

"Oh!" As soon as Ye Qiu's words came out, Pang He's heart suddenly sank, and he saw his two eyeballs turning back and forth in his sockets a few times, and the matter about the Southwest Chamber of Commerce gave him the most headache, so he didn't know how to speak for a while.

"I actually came here today to ask you Pang City Lord about someone!" Ye Qiu said bluntly, "This person offended me yesterday and almost injured the life of one of my Imperial Sect brothers!, and he is now in the Western Imperial City, so Ye also wants to ask Pang City Lord for your help in finding this person!"

Hearing Ye Qiu's words, the big stone in Pang He's heart fell to the ground all of a sudden, and he couldn't help exhaling a breath of turbidity, his face regained his previous smile, and he nodded again and again: "There is still such a short-sighted person in the Western Imperial City? I don't know which bastard offended the emperor's brother? Tell me, if this matter doesn't bother Brother Ye, if you do it, I'll send someone to deal with him!"

"No need!" Ye Qiu sneered and waved his hand, "Looking at yesterday's posture, this person should have some background, you just need to find him for me, as for the rest of the matter, leave it to Ye to solve it himself!"

"Okay, good!" Pang He saw that Ye Qiu seemed to be really angry, and hurriedly nodded yes, "I don't know who Brother Ye is looking for?"

"I only know that this person's name is Lu Jun, and I don't know anything about the rest!" Ye Qiu said bluntly, and then he suddenly added again, "There is another one who seems to be called Yin Xi, there are four of them in total!"

"Hiss!" When Ye Qiu said the names of Lu Jun and Yin Xi, Pang He, who had just followed Ye Qiu with the same hatred and hatred, was a little cold in an instant, he didn't know the names of these two people, they were all too familiar, they were Lu Yifan's henchmen, and they were now one of the principals in the Southwest Chamber of Commerce.

At this moment, under Ye Qiu's name, Pang He was at a loss, and his face became more and more panicked.

"City Lord Pang?" Ye Qiu couldn't help frowning when he saw this, and asked meaningfully, "Do you recognize them?"

"I ......" Pang He wanted to refuse, but he was worried that it would be difficult to explain to the emperor after the matter was revealed, so he could only say in a slur manner, "I've heard of their names......"

"That's easy!" Ye Qiu nodded proudly and said with a smile, "They claim to have come to the Western Imperial City from outside to do business, since you know them, take me to their residence quickly, Ye Mou will settle last night's account with these boys!"

"Never!" Just when Ye Qiu's words fell, Pang He's nervous words had already blurted out subconsciously, and then he realized that he had lost his temper, so he hurriedly changed the conversation and explained with a wry smile, "Why should Brother Ye do this little thing himself, it is better to hand it over to Pang Mou......"

"City Lord Pang!" Ye Qiu suddenly interrupted Pang He's words, only to see his eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of scrutiny flashed in his eyes when he looked at Pang He, "Do you know them?"

"I ......" Pang He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, he knew too well the character of Lu Yifan's group, if Ye Qiu rashly came to the door today, I was afraid that none of them would be able to come out alive, and the most important thing was that he was implicated at this time, Pang He couldn't let Ye Qiu have an accident, otherwise the emperor would be held accountable, and the first person to die would be himself. As soon as he thought of these Pang He, he became more and more anxious, "I can't hide it, I still have some friendship with this Lu Jun and Yin Xi......

As soon as Pang He's words came out, Ye Qiu's eyebrows suddenly raised, and the eyes that looked at Pang He began to become a little cold.

"What do you mean? You're going to protect them?"

"Don't dare!" Without waiting for Ye Qiu to ask for the guilt, Pang He hurriedly vetoed, "Don't dare! How dare I be the enemy of Brother Ye because of a few of them?" It's just that Pang still doesn't know what happened last night, if the matter does not reach that irreparable point, can you give Pang a chance to reconcile the two sides, the right is to give Pang a thin face, Brother Ye, you treat these boys as a fart...... Let it go!"

"You ......" Ye Qiu wanted to be angry, but the moment his words blurted out, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and then his face that was originally full of anger instantly turned into an inexplicable sneer, "This...... Actually, it's okay! Since City Lord Pang has spoken, then Ye Mou can't be too ignorant of current affairs, so bother City Lord Pang to be a middleman and help me find Lu Jun and Yin Xi to come out, as long as they can let me and my brother admit their mistakes face to face, I won't mention this matter anymore!"

"Brother Ye, ...... admit your mistakes"

"City Lord Pang!Because of your face, I have already conceded three points!" Without waiting for Pang He to bargain, Ye Qiu's face suddenly sank, and then said in a cold voice, "This matter has already alarmed my master, Elder He, you don't want his old man to intercede with you personally, right?"

"Don't dare! Don't dare!" As soon as he heard Elder He's name, Pang He's legs were about to weaken, Elder He was one of the four elders of the Imperial Sect, and he was second only to the Sect Master of the Imperial Sect, he Pang He didn't even dare to offend a small disciple of the Inner Sect, how could he dare to offend the high-ranking Elder of the Imperial Sect?

The reason why Ye Qiu dared to be so arrogant as a small disciple of the Inner Sect was to some extent because his master was an elder of the Imperial Sect, you must know that the disciples of the outer sect were generally led by the disciples of the Inner Sect to practice, and most of the disciples of the Inner Sect were guided by the Imperial Sect's protector to practice, and only a very small number of disciples of the Inner Sect were destined to become the closed disciples of the elders of the Imperial Sect, and Ye Qiu was one of the few people who had excellent luck. The status of the so-called apprentices is also different depending on the master, although Ye Qiu is only a disciple of the Imperial Sect, but in fact, his status in the sect is even no less than that of the Dharma Protector, so the ordinary disciples of the Imperial Sect will be respectfully complimented when they see Ye Qiu, and this is also the reason why Ye Qiu can bring out so many helpers from the sect today.

I saw Pang He nodding his head again and again like a chicken pecking rice: "Leave this matter to me, I will definitely give Brother Ye a satisfactory answer before tonight!"

"That's very good!" Ye Qiu nodded with satisfaction, "Then I'll wait for the good news of the Pang City Lord at the Shen family!" After saying that, Ye Qiu greeted casually, and then a large group of Imperial Sect disciples left Pang He's small courtyard, and when Ye Qiu and the others left, Pang He felt that the heaven and earth seemed to be a little more transparent, and his big gulp of breath also gasped.

"City Lord, what are you going to do about this matter?" Ma Quan, who had never dared to interject, dared to step forward at this moment, and asked Pang He with an urgent expression, "Huangzong and the Southwest Chamber of Commerce, who are you helping this time?"

"This day is coming sooner or later!" Pang He said to himself with palpitations, "It's just that I didn't expect it to come so suddenly." Ye Qiu is a cautious eye, he will definitely not stop at the matter he is obsessed with, don't look at his promise to let me reconcile, in fact, he just wants to use me to find out Lu Jun and Yin Xi, once they meet, then we can't stop anything!"

"This little bit can also be seen!" Ma Quan nodded again and again, "Even if Ye Qiu is not careful and wants Lu Jun and Yin Xi to admit his mistake to him, this matter is tantamount to a fool's dream!

"Alas!" Pang He angrily stretched out his hand and slammed the stone table in the courtyard, shouting angrily, "How can you say that Lu Jun and Ye Qiu got into trouble? This Ye Qiu is originally a villain, and once anything is involved, it will be difficult for him to end up! Damn, if it weren't for the fact that there is an elder crane behind Ye Qiu, how could Lao Tzu pay attention to such a dog! He still dares to point fingers in front of me like a dog, thinking that when Lao Tzu took a battalion of brothers to practice, this dog thing didn't know where to feed! I'm so......"

"City Lord, don't worry! Since you have already promised Ye Qiu about this matter, then I'm afraid the Southwest Chamber of Commerce won't be able to hide from it!" Ma Quan analyzed thoughtfully, "The so-called soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and we have no other way to do it now, the City Lord can only go to the Southwest Chamber of Commerce in person! Since this matter is related to Lu Jun and Yin Xi, then presumably Lu Yifan will never sit idly by, in fact, it doesn't matter how the Emperor and the Southwest Chamber of Commerce fight, just don't hurt the innocent!" And now the city lord is the most innocent one, but unfortunately he is caught in the middle and can't hide!"

"If you have a fart, let it go! Don't go around the bend in front of Lao Tzu!" Pang He scolded angrily.

"I mean, the top priority for the adults is not to stop them from fighting, but to try to make them suspend the fighting!" Ma Quan said with a wicked smile, "Don't delay for too long, as long as you wait until this matter has nothing to do with the adults, you can let them fight! The so-called two tigers must be injured when they fight, and the most important thing now is that we must not set ourselves on fire!"

"What do you mean?" Pang He had already lost his backbone in this matter, so he could only pin all his hopes on Ma Quan, "You said it more clearly!"

"To put it bluntly, the adults must do everything possible to calm down the current matter!" Ma Quan hurriedly explained, "At least they must reconcile with each other tonight, and they must not be allowed to fight in front of you, my lord!"

"That makes sense!" Pang He said with a frown, "Then what do you say this city lord should do?"

"Let's go to the Southwest Chamber of Commerce to meet Lu Yifan first, and see what his attitude is!" Ma Quan said unhurriedly, "At the same time, we will send someone to thoroughly investigate what happened last night, and then we can prescribe the right medicine!"

"That's right! This matter can't be delayed any longer, immediately send someone to investigate last night's incident, and then you will go to the Southwest Chamber of Commerce with me to see Lu Yifan now!" Pang He didn't have time to think about it, and now he would listen to what Ma Quan said.

"If you go, you want to go, but this time you don't want to grovel to Lu Yifan's group again!" Ma Quan said meaningfully, "This time the matter is urgent, if you compliment them as before, I'm afraid that Lu Yifan's group will not only not agree to reconcile this matter, but maybe they will deliberately make some trouble!" You know, Lu Yifan can't wait to tie you firmly to the boat of the Southwest Chamber of Commerce now, if he lets Ye Qiu have three longs and two shorts in front of the adults tonight, then the emperor will decide that you and Lu Yifan are in the same group, and then we will really have no way to retreat. What's more, this incident was provoked by Lu Yifan's people, my lord, you are suffering from unwarranted disasters, and you should be a little dissatisfied with him. ”

"What do you mean......"

"My lord, as the lord of the Western Imperial City, you naturally can't sit idly by and ignore someone making trouble in the Western Imperial City! This time, you have to raise your posture and show the posture of asking the guilt, only in this way can they listen to you!" Ma Quan sneered and said, "Say something that shouldn't be said, if it weren't for you, Lu Yifan would be a fart? I'm afraid that they would have starved to death at the foot of the Xihuang Mountain! How can you tolerate them not taking you seriously again and again? Only by letting them pay attention to you and beg you, will what the adults say have weight!" You also take this opportunity to take a look at Lu Yifan's attitude, if they are really a bunch of ungrateful and despicable villains, then we still have time to turn the spearhead now......"

Without waiting for Ma Quan's words to finish, Pang He's face suddenly appeared a touch of contemplation, since he met in the lockdown back then, he has always had a trace of awe of Lu Yifan, and now Ma Quan wants him to turn against the guest, and Lu Yifan's status has a 180-degree turn, Pang He's heart is more or less bold.

"Your Excellency doesn't have to worry, now that the Emperor is stubbornly restraining the Southwest Chamber of Commerce in front, Lu Yifan still has a request for you, and he will never do anything to you!" Ma Quan seemed to see Pang He's worries, and hurriedly said with a smile, "Even if Lu Yifan is really lucky in the future, my lord can also prevaricate this matter with a slight gaffe in a momentary hurry, thinking about him Lu Yifan doesn't dare to do anything, you must know that it is easy for him to deal with us, but if he accidentally loses the hearts of the people of the Fourteen Cities in the Southwest, then they will be in big trouble!"

Pang He listened thoughtfully to Ma Quan's analysis, and after a moment of hesitation, a resolute light finally appeared in his eyes.

"Lu Yifan, during this time, I sent money and house, and your kindness to me back then was nothing more than that. Now that you and I don't owe each other, it's really time to talk about who is the master and who is the guest in this Western Imperial City!" Pang He kept talking to himself as if he was making excuses for himself.

"Don't worry, my lord!" Ma Quan agreed with a smirk, "With me, this matter will be settled smoothly!"

Pang He glanced at Ma Quan gratefully, and then patted Ma Quan on the shoulder, the weight contained in his expression was self-evident.

"Call some brothers to come with us on a trip to the Southwest Chamber of Commerce"
