Ye Junwen just thought of winning over the nobles, and the most priority one is of course the city lord of this city, Clovis, if he can win over the city lord, of course, it is the best choice for the moment, originally he also wanted to try to see the city lord today, but the city lord's words are generally difficult to see, right, I was trying to find a way, but I suddenly received news that the city lord was dead?

Ye Junwen hurriedly asked the innkeeper about the specific situation, and probably got the news like this, the city lord Clovis was indeed dead, and the cause of death was...... Die. About a month ago, there was a war between their principality and another nearby principality, and the city lord Clovis received an order from above to lead his troops to the battlefield, only to receive an obituary this morning, and the city lord was killed in battle.

It's just that this news is also a bit lagging, the time of Clovis's death was already four days ago, and before that, I don't know if the news was lagging or blocked, and when the people in the city heard the news this morning, the whole city was immediately in chaos.

Along with the news of the death of the city lord came another news, and that was the news of the heir. Because the city lord is dead, his identity is of course inherited by his heir, and the current news that the heir of the city lord of Clovis is Serina. Clovis had already entered the city in the early hours of this morning.

This Serina. Clovis is the son of the previous city lord, I heard that it was in the field, according to Ye Junwen's estimate, the other party should know the news of his father's death first, and then it should be possible to conceal it, after all, as the heir, he is still in the field, so he waited until he arrived in the territory to announce the news, so as to avoid accidents.

However, from the mouth of the innkeeper, Ye Junwen also knew that the civilians here were generally worried about the current situation, and the main problem was this Serina. Clovis has a bad reputation.

The recently deceased Lord Clovis is supposed to be a good lord, but his son Serina, according to the innkeeper, is a cursed man. It is said that the other party suffers from leprosy, looks extremely ugly, and seems to be mentally ill, and even many of the lords have never seen this heir, and the city lord Clovis doesn't seem to like this son, about 4 years ago, the city lord Clovis sent Serina out of Ledeska City, and the leaders don't know where to send it, anyway, it is estimated that he was exiled or something.

However, the city lord of Clovis is very unfortunate to have such a son, and he is not in a hurry, after all, the city lord of Clovis is 40 years old this year, and he can still be the city lord for decades, but what he didn't expect was the sudden bad news that everyone expected. Now that Clovis has died suddenly, and of course his territory can only be inherited by Serina, so there is no problem for Serina to return, but everyone is worried about the future of this lord with a very bad reputation.

"I don't know what happened to the new lord......," the innkeeper couldn't help but say again.

How worried the boss is, Ye Junwen can't control it, for him, the important thing is his own business development. The new lord would be nice if he could get in touch with each other. Thinking of this, Ye Junwen felt that no matter whether he was new or not, it was true to find a way to meet the other party.

Of course, ordinary methods must not be seen, just he is a nameless person who wants to see the city lord, how is this possible, if you do this, the city lord is not going to be busy to death, if you want to see, you should have to go through some special means. Ye Junwen thought about it, his behavior may be a bit risky, but he seems to have to do it, he must know that he doesn't even have the money to live in a hotel now, if he doesn't come up with a way today, he may have to sleep on the street, it will be a bit too miserable, so Ye Junwen can only take some risks.

Thinking of this, Ye Junwen also tidied up his things a little, and then left the inn, aiming for the City Lord's Mansion in the middle of the city. Along the way, Ye Junwen looked at the situation in the city a little, although it was still morning, but there were already a lot of people in the city, but today's atmosphere was obviously different from yesterday when Ye Junwen was shopping, Ye Junwen listened to it a little, and sure enough, everyone was discussing the news of the death of the city lord, and for this new city lord, it seems that everyone's opinion is the same, very worried.

After strolling around for a while, Ye Junwen also came to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion in Ledeska City happened to be located in the center of the city, and the situation here was completely different from the environment where Ye Junwen was before, and it looked a lot neat and clean. Ye Junwen probably understood, the place where he was before should be a civilian commercial area or something, after all, this is the City Lord's Mansion.

The City Lord's Mansion is very large, and there is a wall around it, which is also obviously separating the City Lord's Mansion from the surrounding buildings, and across the wall, Ye Junwen only saw the roof of a three-story building in the City Lord's Mansion, and at present, it should still be very grand.

"How did you meet the city lord?" Of course, Ye Junwen didn't come close, he stood in the distance and watched for a while, the first method he could use was to sneak in, relying on his fake identity as a businessman to try to see if he could meet the city lord or something, but it was estimated that this would not work. After all, now that the old city lord has just died, you still want the new city lord to have air to take care of you, a new merchant? The second one is to wait at the door to see if there is a chance to see the city lord come out, but the time for this method is uncertain, and he can't afford to wait, so the only way left is to ...... Sneaked in. See the city lord first, try to talk to the other party, if it doesn't work, then you are not afraid of death anyway, as long as you don't reveal your identity, you can't find yourself if you escape safely.

But of course, this method is also very difficult, first of all, Ye Junwen saw that there were a lot of guards at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and then there were patrols, there were many patrols in this area, usually in groups of five or six people, soldiers with spears, it was not easy to get in, not to mention that it was still broad daylight.

"Why don't you wait until the evening?" Ye Junwen is still very confident in his current skills, he has been used to his body when he was in the forest before, and Ye Junwen is still a little experienced in stealth, so when it comes to night, he may be able to sneak in.

But just when I was thinking about this, suddenly a bell rang from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion in front of me, and it was the kind of bell that rang like a bell. Hearing this bell, the surrounding patrols became nervous and immediately rushed in the direction where the bell sounded.

"Huh?" Seeing this situation, Ye Junwen was also a little stunned, this should be an alarm, but it must not be himself, he hasn't acted yet. Could it be that there is someone else besides himself who wants to break into the city lord's mansion? Although I don't know what the situation is, but this sudden incident gave Ye Junwen a chance, is there a better time than this? Seeing the patrol team leaving, Ye Junwen directly took out a hooded robe from the space and draped it on his body, and then directly accelerated, and rushed towards the wall of the City Lord's Mansion.

The wall is very high, and there are barbs on it, which is to prevent people from easily climbing in, but Ye Junwen is now skilled, and he is not afraid of any barbs, he accelerated and kicked on the wall twice, and then directly pulled the thorns on it, and with force up, he turned over. looked at the situation below, because the alarm seemed to be in the other direction, everyone didn't notice his side, Ye Junwen even saw that a lot of guards were moving, and the other party could see his side as soon as he turned his head, but their attention was on the other side.

Looking left and right, there were several buildings in the wall of the City Lord's Mansion, but the City Lord must be in the largest building in the middle, and while there was no one now, Ye Junwen immediately approached the edge of this building. After looking at it a little, it was more troublesome to enter the first floor, the windows near him were closed, and it was impossible for him to break the window to enter, but Ye Junwen looked up and found that the balcony above the second floor was easier to climb into, so he accelerated and stepped on the balcony again, and went up as soon as he turned over.

As a result, as soon as he went up, Ye Junwen was directly stunned, because he saw a person appear in the room head-on. The person in front of her was a woman, very young, with short black hair, a very standard face, and she was a beauty, and the other party was only wearing a thin cloth coat at this time, when Ye Junwen saw her, the other party was putting something on her body, and if you look closely, it seems to be a relatively thin kind of armor of the chain mail type.

Both sides were stunned when they saw each other, but Ye Junwen reacted relatively quickly, and immediately took two steps forward and rushed towards the other party.

"You ......" The woman on the other side saw Ye Junwen rushing over, and she also reacted and wanted to resist, but the armor on her body was half worn, and this hand was still stuck, and before she could make any moves, Ye Junwen covered the other party's mouth, and then directly pressed the other party to the ground.

"Don't move!" Ye Junwen said immediately.

Although he said this, the woman here still continued to struggle, and just when Ye Junwen wanted to continue, he suddenly heard a "bang" next to him, the door of the room opened, and a figure appeared at the gate.

Ye Junwen looked up and saw that a man in his forties appeared, and when he saw the situation in the room, the other party was obviously stunned. Ye Junwen didn't know what to do at this time, and the two sides looked at each other very strangely for a few seconds.

"That, Lord Castle! It's not good, there are assassins coming, please follow me to the safe room immediately! Just when Ye Junwen didn't know what to do, the man in front of him suddenly said to Ye Junwen.
