Chapter 154: The prince arrives

readx;?“ Qingyun, how can you not know what you say about your father?" Fang Chengtian sighed in a low voice, "It's just that Lou Zong is powerful, what ability can our Fang family have to compete with it? What kind of food, drink, and clothing we eat now, which one is not only after Lou Zong nodded? How many years, my father has never had the luxury of regaining the power that belongs to us, I just hope that our Fang family can be safe." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Dad, did you know that a monstrous fire was ignited three days ago thousands of miles north of the lockdown......

"You mean Wenyang City?" Before Fang Qingyun's words were finished, Fang Chengtian suddenly said.

"That's right! The place where the fire caught fire is Wenyang City!" Fang Qingyun nodded and smiled, "Since Wenyang City was slaughtered by Lou Zong, the child has been looking forward to the emperor being able to send someone to exterminate the Lou Zong, but there has been no news for a few months, until the fire three days ago, the child suspects that there must be something hidden in this!"

"You mean there's something wrong with that fire?" Fang Chengtian thought with a frown, "It seems that this matter is indeed a bit strange to hear you say this, that fire was obviously deliberately set by someone, but who in Wenyang City would deliberately set such a fire? Could it be someone from Lou Zong?"

"Probably not!" Fang Qingyun analyzed, "Lou Zong had already slaughtered the city a few months ago, and they didn't do much to kill people and set fires at that time, and the child thought that Lou Zong would not be so inexplicable to suddenly set fire a few months after the incident!"

"Is it possible that there was something on the emperor's side that caused Lou Zong's vigilance, and Lou Zong destroyed the evidence in order to cover people's eyes and ears, so he burned Wenyang City cleanly?"

"Well...... The child can't say it well. If that's the case, maybe it's also an opportunity for our Fang family to turn the tables around!" Fang Qingyun muttered faintly.

"Maybe it's an opportunity to turn around, but it's more likely to be a trap from which to recover. Fang Chengtian sighed and shook his head, "We can't take risks in this matter, in case we really anger Lou Zong, then before Lou Zong is exterminated, the first one to die is our Fang family, you are not allowed to investigate this matter again!"

"Daddy......"

"Master!" Before Fang Qingyun could argue, a slightly hurried voice came from a distance, and then I saw a mustachioed man who looked like a housekeeper trotting all the way to Fang Chengtian's side, and suddenly knelt in front of Fang Chengtian, "The little one is see the city lord, see the prince." ”

"What's the matter?" Fang Chengtian frowned and asked with displeasure on his face.

"Back to the old man, just now the guards at the door came in to spread the news, saying that there are a few young people outside the door who claim to be the old man of the city lord, and they want to enter the mansion to ask to see him!" said the butler cautiously.

"Bastard!" Before Fang Chengtian could open his mouth, Fang Qingyun shouted angrily, "Do you have any heads? Think about it with your own heads, do you still report such a trivial matter? Just drive it away! Could it be that all cats and dogs can come and ask to see the city lord? How can the city lord see everyone casually?"

"This ...... The guards said that they saw that the young people were talking about something serious, so they ......" The housekeeper was scolded by Fang Qingyun and looked a little flustered, "Also, they asked the guards to show the master, saying that the master will remember them after reading it!"

Saying that, the housekeeper hurriedly took out a token from his sleeve and handed it to Fang Chengtian, and when Fang Chengtian, who was unhappy, saw the token, a look of extreme horror suddenly appeared in his originally listless little eyes.

Seeing Fang Chengtian who was frozen there with a frightened face, Fang Qingyun couldn't help but look puzzled, and then he stretched out his hand and pointed at the token in Fang Chengtian's hand, opened his mouth and scolded: "What the hell dare to bring it to the city lord, I see you ......"

"Smack!"

Before Fang Qingyun's words fell, Fang Chengtian actually gave Fang Qingyun a hard slap with his backhand mercilessly, and then in Fang Qingyun's eyes full of doubts and grievances, Fang Chengtian actually stood up abruptly, and then reached out and vigorously brushed his hair that had not been combed for many days, and then straightened his robe, and then looked at Fang Qingyun with deep eyes, and there was an unprecedented dignified color between his words.

"Rebel son Hugh is talking nonsense! Quickly pack up your clothes, gather everyone in the mansion, and immediately get up and go with me to the outside of the mansion gate to greet Lord Protector!"

"Protecting ...... After hearing Fang Chengtian's reprimand, Fang Qingyun was first stunned, and then looked at the Protector Decree in Fang Chengtian's hand, and couldn't help but flash a look of surprise between his eyebrows, "But how could the Protector come to the city?"

"Nonsense! The Protector of the Kingdom can come here, and he must have received the imperial order of His Majesty the Emperor!" Fang Chengtian respectfully held the token in both hands, and a touch of irrepressible excitement came out between his words, "Maybe this time you really let the kid say it right, the Lord Leader finally sent someone, the Lord Protector Han Xiao is the number one military general in the Holy Domain, if Lord Han comes to seal the city in person, then I expect that the Lou Sect will be defeated! haha...... It seems that there is hope for the future of our family......"

"Wait a minute!" Before Fang Chengtian, who was full of excitement, stepped out of the Fang Pavilion, Fang Qingyun's eyes suddenly lit up, and then he asked with a frown: "Dad, dare to ask how old this Lord Han is this year?"

"What is this called?" Fang Chengtian rebuked with a displeased expression, "Lord Han has been serving His Majesty the Emperor for many years, how could you ask such rude words?"

"This is strange! The housekeeper just said that it was a group of young people, no matter how poor the guard's eyesight is, it is impossible to regard Lord Han Xiao, who is half a hundred years old, as a young man, right?"

Hearing Fang Qingyun's words, Fang Chengtian couldn't help but be stunned, he first frowned and looked at the Protector in his hand again, and then looked at the housekeeper with a hesitant expression: "Are you talking about a group of young people coming over?"

"Back to my lord, the guards who came to deliver the news did say so! a group of young men!" said the butler firmly.

"This ...... This is a little strange!" Hearing this, Fang Chengtian was not so anxious, he sat on the stone bench again, holding the decree to protect the country in his hand, but a look of doubt appeared on his face, "No matter how energetic Lord Han is, he will never be mistaken for a young man...... Could it be that the person who came here is not Lord Han......"

"Dad, could it be that someone is impostoring?" Fang Qingyun said with a solemn face, "Otherwise, I'll take someone to arrest those people and interrogate them properly?"

"No!" Fang Chengtian immediately stopped, "Although I haven't seen Lord Han, I know that this decree to protect the country is definitely Lord Han's, and this thing is given by the emperor, and the protector will definitely carry it with him all day long." Since those people outside can come here with this token, then they must have something to do with Lord Han, and this token must have been given to them by Lord Han on his own initiative! If this is the case, if we capture these people, it will be tantamount to offending Lord Han, wouldn't it be self-defeating?"

Fang Qingyun was also confused at the moment, and asked faintly: "Could it be that they stole it......?"

"Impossible! There are not many people in the Holy Domain who have the ability to steal from Lord Han!" Fang Chengtian shook his head slowly, "And if the person who really has this ability is definitely not an ordinary person, why bother stealing this little token?"

"This ......" Fang Chengtian said this, Fang Qingyun suddenly lost his mind, "Dad, what should we do then?"

"Of course you have to please, but you can't ask for it with much fanfare. Everything must be done before finding out their origins!" Fang Chengtian made up his mind to pay attention, and then turned to the butler and instructed, "You go and bring them to the main hall, good tea is served, and I will be there later!"

"Yes!" the butler agreed, and hurriedly withdrew.

"Dad, then we ......"

"Let's go change my clothes and comb them first, after all, they came with a decree to protect the country, and I can't lose the prestige of the lord of a city in front of these people!"

After that, Fang Chengtian ignored Fang Qingyun anymore, turned around and left the Fang Pavilion under the service of several maids.

......

In the main hall, the housekeeper of the Fang family was instructing several subordinates to serve tea to Lu Yifan and the others one by one, and Lu Yifan and his party of six people were also disrespectful, no one was in a hurry, and a few people were quietly tasting tea.

Originally, the housekeeper wanted to find out some useful information from the words and deeds of these people, but he didn't want Lu Yifan and the others to say a word of nonsense since they entered the main hall, and they were quiet and a little scary from beginning to end.

"Hehe, a few young ladies wait a minute, the city lord will be here soon!" said the housekeeper with a dry smile.

"No hurry!" Lu Yifan put down the teacup casually, smiled lightly and looked around the layout of the main hall, his eyes couldn't help but flash a touch of approval, the layout of the main hall is quite elegant, the beam is hollowed out and carved with all kinds of beautiful landscapes, and behind the main seat located in the north, there is also a huge picture of a tiger descending the mountain, which looks quite imposing. There is also a large black plaque hanging above the tiger map, which is inscribed with the four big characters of "Sealed City Treasure Land". There is a bookcase in front of the main seat, and there is only a piece of startling wood on the bookcase, a set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and there is nothing else, but it is also quite elegant. The chairs placed on both sides of the main hall are all made of fine sandalwood, and even the teacups and saucers for drinking tea are very elegant, the whole main hall is rich and extraordinary, but it is by no means vulgar, "Seeing that the layout here is so elegant, this must be the place where Lord Fang usually deals with city affairs, right?"

"This ...... Hehe...... Of course, of course!" the butler echoed vaguely, in fact, there was nothing left in the current lockdown that could be handled by the city lord, and as for some extremely trivial matters, Fang Chengtian did not bother to manage them, and it was not his turn to come forward for major matters. At best, after receiving Lou Zong's order, he ordered the people below to do it, and generally this kind of thing was arranged by Fang Chengtian in Baicui Garden, so he didn't need to go to this main hall to make a fool of himself.

Of course, Lu Yifan could see the housekeeper's flickering words, but he didn't pick it out, just smiled slightly, and didn't say anything more.

"That ......" Seeing that Lu Yifan was about to fall silent again, the housekeeper was a little anxious, and he cheekily smiled again: "I have a sentence that shouldn't be asked, I don't know if the son can give advice?"

"Since you know that you shouldn't ask, don't ask!" Without waiting for Lu Yifan to open his mouth, Liu Sandao was the first to grab the words, and then he deliberately raised his eyebrows at the housekeeper, and then said jokingly, "The more things you know, the worse it is for yourself!"

"That's that!" The housekeeper didn't dare to offend until he fully figured out the origin of these people, so even if he knew that he was ridiculed by Liu Sandao, he could only laugh and laugh.

"Dare to ask a few people, which one is Lord Han Xiaohan?"

At this moment, a clear voice suddenly sounded from outside the door, and then I saw Fang Qingyun with a straight face walking in, as soon as he entered the door, the housekeeper hurriedly introduced Lu Yifan: "This is Fang Qingyun's son, but our city lord's son!"

And after Fang Qingyun stepped into the main hall, his eyes were immediately attracted by the two girls Han Ling'er and Mu Dan, the lockdown is located in the desert climate is extremely harsh, so most of the girls living in the local area are not satisfactory in terms of appearance, figure and temperament. Of course, this is not to say that there are no beauties here, you must know that Su Yingying, the drunken dream flower who is famous in Wenyang City, is the daughter of this native of the city.

Although Fang Qingyun himself is not a decent gentleman, he is far from being a womanizer, so his reaction to Han Ling'er and Mu Dan's two daughters is the reaction of a normal man after seeing a beautiful woman, the so-called love for beauty is everyone, and in the end, there is nothing too excessive.

Having said that, being stared at like this by a strange big man, Han Ling'er and Mu Dan still felt a little uncomfortable. Especially Han Ling'er, her eldest lady's temper came up, where did she still care about your identity, and at that moment, the other party Qingyunjiao shouted: "Have you seen enough?"

"Oh! disrespectful and disrespectful! The two girls are as beautiful as heaven, when Fang Mou couldn't help but lose his temper, and hoped that the two girls would forgive him!" Fang Qingyun hurriedly withdrew his eyes, and hurriedly bowed to Han Ling'er and Mu Dan, "The two girls reminded me of Su Yingying, the first beauty in the city, and then I was in a trance, if I offended something, I hope the girl will forgive me!"

"Su Yingying, do you know Su Yingying?" Han Ling'er raised her eyebrows and asked curiously.

"Why, girl, do you know her too?"

"I ...... It's just that I've heard of it......" When Han Ling'er accidentally saw Xie Yun's distracted expression, she hurriedly changed her tone and stopped the topic, "Forget it! Let me ask you, where is Fang Chengtian, the lord of the Closed City, now?" Han Ling'er had never been interested in Fang Qingyun's flattery, and her first impression of Fang Qingyun was not good, so she was unceremonious, "The person we are looking for is him, let him come out quickly!"

"My father heard that Lord Protector was coming, so he had to clean up carefully, and he would come out soon!" Fang Qingyun didn't expect Han Ling'er, a woman who looked weak and lovely, to speak in such an unpolite tone, and even dared to name her father, and she was also a little unhappy at the moment, "It's just that when I look at a few of them, it seems that none of them are Han Xiao's masters!"

"What, have you seen Lord Han?" Lu Yifan asked with a light smile.

Lu Yifan's words made Fang Qingyun stunned, and then he frowned slightly, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and then he stretched out his hand and pointed at Lu Yifan and said loudly: "Although I haven't seen Lord Han, I seem to have seen you somewhere!"
