Before the prefect came out, there was already a complicated sound of footsteps behind him, and Li Xiang knew that this Tiragon was not Anfen, and sure enough, the soldiers from Wacheng ran over from the three nearby streets.

Li Xiang's men have all seen the world, although you have more than a hundred people, but if you are frightened, then our southern and northern wars will be a joke.

The people under Changsun Ze have also been on the battlefield, and at this moment they all showed the chain crossbows in their hands, if His Royal Highness Taisun gave an order, then don't blame us for creating a bloody scene.

"Don't mess around, who let you into the city?"

The prefect finally came out, and when he saw the troops around him, although he didn't understand what was going on, there was an official of the Tang Dynasty here, and then looking at these entourages around him, this was definitely not an ordinary person.

Tiragon was thinking about relying on these armies to make Li Xiang succumb, who knew that his cousin had come out.

The soldiers present all drew their swords, but after hearing the words of the prefect, they could only stand aside honestly, but they still surrounded Li Xiang and them, after all, their general was controlled by Li Xiang.

"Dare to ask if this adult is a Tang official?"

The prefect first saw Li Xiang standing in the center, and praised his good appearance in his heart, and then looked at this sharp eye, this is by no means an ordinary official.

"In Xia Huangyi, the Tang Dynasty Imperial Court Anxi City ......"

Li Xiang casually made up an official position, anyway, the other party has no way to verify it, the official document in his hand is not fake, there is the seal of the Tang Dynasty official mansion on it, no matter what kind of person it is in this era, no one dares to forge this thing, this is a big crime of the Jiu clan.

The prefect was skeptical at first, but when he saw the red seal, he immediately believed all this, mainly because in this era, no matter what country it is, few people dare to forge this kind of thing, especially the Tang Heavenly Dynasty, where the laws are more stringent.

"Lord Huang detains my country's officials, what is this, is this the way the Tang Heavenly Dynasty acts? This is in the territory of my Wa City. ”

This prefect is not a fool, he immediately put the black pot on Li Xiang's head, although his cousin usually does not do serious things, but in this kind of crisis moment, he will also deal with the relationship between the two countries, that is, he cannot show weakness first.

"The prefect doesn't use this set of diplomatic rhetoric, let's talk about things, I don't know how much tax your country levies on my Tang merchants? Is it that you have to pay taxes again in every city, and the tax rate is terrible, 25 bags of rice have to pay a tax on 10 bags of rice? ”

Li Xiang was too lazy to go around in circles with him here, so he directly told him what happened just now, if he went around in circles, we don't know how long it would be.

"How is this possible? China has always been happy to deal with Datang, and has opened up several border gates, and such a heavy tax rate has never appeared in China. ”

As soon as the prefect heard this, he knew that his cousin usually didn't do anything serious, but because the two of them had a grandfather, he had to arrange him in a military camp outside the city.

"Shouldn't you look into what you just said to see if what you just said is true? There are our businessmen, and there are also your merchants, and this guy is standing on the street to collect taxes, and said that he was ordered by you, if I want to have a lie, let the adults deal with it, but if what I said is true, please also give me an explanation to the Tang Dynasty court and the Tang Dynasty merchants. ”

Li Xiang's words are loud, don't you want to be reasonable? That Lao Tzu is the most reasonable, and now the truth is on the bright side, let's see how you deal with this matter.

The prefect nodded with a somewhat embarrassed face, and then looked at the two people beside him, these two people had gone down to understand the situation just now, basically similar to what Li Xiang said, and the two of them also nodded with a sad face.

"Bastard, you really did such a stupid thing, do you know how much this will cost our relationship? Come on, take this guy down for me, and I'll try it again. ”

After hearing the prefect's disposition, everyone frowned, you two are cousins, if you don't sentence this guy today, you can find a reason tomorrow, if you just let it go, won't we people suffer in vain? And this guy's notoriously flawed flaws will be retribution, and if we people offend him today, will we still be able to do business in Wacheng in the future?

"Lord Huang, what are you?"

The prefect's men wanted to go up and hand over Tiragong, but without Li Xiang's nod, how could these guards possibly hand them over?

"Let me ask you more, according to the laws of your country, this person collects taxes without authorization, and embarrasses my Datang businessman, and is also suspected of extortion, what kind of punishment should he be in?"

When Li Xiang said this, the prefect knew that he was not easy to fool, and he thought that he would solve this matter with a little thunder and rain just now, and then make amends with these Tang businessmen later, but he didn't expect that people would be indomitable.

"Thirty lashes, confiscation of all illegal gains, and never hired after the barracks."

In front of so many people, this prefect couldn't favor his cousin.

"This official represents the Tang Dynasty, and it is the interests of the Tang Dynasty merchants who are being safeguarded here, and I am not satisfied with this matter."

Li Xiang was immediately dissatisfied after hearing such a punishment, if it was done with thirty lashes, then this punishment was too low, according to the words of modern society, that is, the cost of crime was too low, and there would be such people who would stand up and find trouble in the future.

"What should I do if I look like an adult?"

The prefect said stubbornly, although he knew that the person in front of him could not represent the Tang Dynasty, but his current identity was a Tang Dynasty official, and if it was not handled properly, it might really cause some contradictions between the two countries.

"This person is the root of the trouble, I also asked a few Tang merchants just now, they were not only blackmailed by this person, but also whipped by this person, your lord can send someone to ask, is my Tang businessman so unbearable? Coming to you to do business and being insulted by you is really an insult to my Tang Empire. ”

Li Xiang raised this height in an instant, and the startled prefect was speechless.
