The Lord's Mansion was not built in the very center of the inner city, but on a mountain peak to the west.

This mountain is a lot shorter than Qingding Mountain, about 300m high.

It turns out that this mountain is more than a thousand meters high, and after years of war and destruction by beast tides, it has been flattened a lot.

However, it is enough to form a natural barrier, and the City Lord's Mansion is located on it, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, so it is a better location.

The carriage could not go up the hill and stopped at the foot of the mountain.

On the way up the mountain, there are many black-armored sergeants guarding the checkpoints.

Xiao Zhan was slandered in his heart:

"The City Lord's Mansion is so tightly defended, as if it is facing a great enemy, how can it do so much practical things for the lives of the common people?"

Xiao Zhan asked Xiangzi not to wait for him, and to drive the carriage back to the villa first, and Fang Ningxue may also need to use the car.

After coming out of the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Zhan had to go to other places to take a look.

Fortunately, 300 meters is not very high.

Climbing the stairs, in addition to making the people who came to work hard, it also showed the coercion of the city lord's mansion.

This may be another intention of the City Lord's Mansion built on the top of the mountain!

Before Xiao Zhan came, he had already sent a transmission note to inform City Lord Shi, and he didn't want to let himself come in vain.

Thinking about it, even if he wants to come, then as the lord of the city, he loves to come even more, and if he doesn't want to come, he won't come.

The lord of the castle doesn't have to come to work every day!

Fortunately, before he was halfway up the mountain, several people had already come down to greet him.

Seeing Xiao Zhan dressed in cloth, the reception staff was not sure, so they asked him:

"Are you the inspector?"

Xiao Zhan nodded.

These black-armored sergeants immediately nodded to Xiao Zhan and asked him to sit in a sedan chair.

Xiao Zhan was happy in his heart:

"Hehe, although the identity of the inspector has no real power, the treatment must be exquisite.

Anyway, he is also a third-grade official, and he sits on an equal footing with the city lord and carries me up in a sedan chair......

Well, not bad! ”

So much so that many people who came over to do business next to them were envious when they saw Xiao Zhan's treatment.

I thought he was a relative of the king.

The only people who can go up the mountain in a sedan chair are the prince's relatives from the royal capital, or those whose official positions are higher than the lord of the city.

In other words, people like Xiao Zhan, who are on an equal footing with the city lord, are eligible to enjoy it.

Such a good treatment, in the entire Qingzhou City, that is, there is only one city lord.

The sedan chair was about to cross the top of the steps, but a "white-faced" boy wearing a colorful robe and a green hat appeared on the steps.

"Shi Shishi?"

Xiao Zhan, who was sitting in the sedan chair, was stunned.

The first gentleman appeared in the City Lord's Mansion, and it was not surprising that his father was the boss of the City Lord's Mansion.

It's just that Shi Gongzi was condescending, staring at the sedan chair with a sneer, Xiao Zhan immediately had a bad feeling!

"How many of you, who is carrying it in the sedan chair?" Shi Gongzi's voice was sharp and sharp, full of fire.

"Report to the young master, it's the special commissioner of the inspector...... Xiao Zhan Xiao! ”

The two black-armored sergeants in front were a little panicked, and when they saw Shi Gongzi with a murderous face, it seemed that they had done something wrong.

"What Inspector? What kind of bird officer is this? Xiao Zhan? Is that the waste Xiao Zhan? ”

Shi Gongzi stared at the sedan chair with gloomy and suspicious eyes.

Xiao Zhan didn't make a sound in the sedan chair.

He felt that those who came were not good, and those who were good did not come, this Shi Gongzi was very difficult!

Really!

Shi Gongzi asked sharply:

"Who sent you down to meet the Inspector?"

"Yes...... Lord of the Castle! ”

Seeing the fierce face of the first gentleman, the two sergeants in front of the sedan chair were so frightened that their legs were weak and they trembled when they spoke.

The reason why the City Lord's Mansion is called the "Longtan Tiger's Den" is not only because of the kind of "coldness" that makes sense not to come in without money.

What's more, the first gentleman regards the City Lord's Mansion as his playground, and all the rules are set by him.

You can play as much as you want, and the officials in the government have to cooperate, otherwise, the consequences will be very serious.

There used to be a righteous old official in the City Lord's Mansion, who really couldn't get used to the style of the first gentleman, not only set up a torture room in the Yamen of the City Lord's Mansion, but also locked up the robbed girls in the City Lord's Mansion office!

So he reprimanded:

"The City Lord's Mansion is a major place in the Yamen, not your private territory, and you are doing illegal things in the City Lord's Mansion, not only will you have no law, but you will also discredit your father!

Didn't your dad educate you? ”

"Old thing! Are you also worthy of teaching Ben Gongzi a lesson? Syllable! ”

Poor this 60-year-old official who is about to retire was not only severely beaten until he could not take care of himself, but he was also dismissed from public office and his pension was cancelled.

The reason given by Lord Shi City is:

"Defying superiors".

Even if the poor old gentleman had said something inappropriate, it would not have ended up with such a tragic consequence!

Your son's deeds are known all over the city, so why don't you see you punish him a little?

The officials of the City Lord's Mansion have understood, the entire yamen is the private back garden of their Shi family's father and son, everyone wants to beg for a living here, then be obedient, and the rest should be treated as if they didn't see it!

……

Therefore, seeing Shi Gongzi going crazy, the two black-armored sergeants in front of him who were carrying a sedan chair wanted to cry without tears, why did you let me stand in front, how good it was for me to be behind!

The two sergeants who carried the sedan chair in the back were also uncomfortable, saying that they were standing on the steps, and the weight of the sedan chair was pressed on their two shoulders, it hurt!

If you don't move, you can't bear it, and you have to overturn!

"Nonsense! The lord of the castle has given you an order, take it and take a look! ”

Shi Gongzi glared and reached over to ask for documents.

"The lord of the castle is the password, and he is ...... down."

Before he finished speaking, Shi Gongzi kicked over!

"Dare to fool this son, look for death!"

A kick hit the sergeant in the chest in front of him, and the sergeant fell backwards—

This time,

Really "overturned"!

The sedan chair overturned on its side, and the four sergeants fell under the steps, staggering, and they tried to grab the sedan chair that was tumbling down, but it was too late.

Xiao Zhan had already discovered that something was wrong, this Shi Gongzi appeared too "timely", as if he knew that he was coming to the City Lord's Mansion today.

And the attitude he spoke was clearly aimed at himself!

At the moment when the sedan chair was about to overturn, Xiao Zhan wore a "crane through the clouds", came out of the curtain in front of the sedan chair, turned over a "pigeon" in the air, and then stood firmly in front of Shi Gongzi.

The two were so close that they almost nose to nose.

Shi Gongzi was so frightened that he took a step back, but the "high heels" on his feet were too high, and he stumbled and sat on the ground.

"eat! We meet again! ”

Xiao Zhan was cold, and walked into Shi Gongzi step by step, murderous.

"Ahh Xiao Zhan beats people! Xiao Zhan wants to kill someone!

You guys, don't take him down yet! ”

Shi Gongzi first howled twice, and then glared at the four black-armored soldiers.

Strange to say, the four black-armored soldiers who were still weak just now and were kicked over by Shi Gongzi jumped up from under the steps at this moment.

"Brush, brush, brush!"

Four black shadows fell from the sky, and four snow-bright war knives came out of their sheaths, surrounding Xiao Zhan's group!

Looking at their momentum, all of them are cultivators above the fifth level of the Xuan Qi Realm.

Xiao Zhan sneered at the corner of his mouth, staring at Shi Gongzi, who was opening the folding fan and looking proud, said:

"and, you took great pains to direct this play, and you want to give this official a disadvantage?"
