The city lord really confirmed the identity of the three of them this time, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and scolded angrily: "Okay, you Dou Nankai, you actually did such a bad thing with the city defense soldiers." Do you know what the relationship between the owner of the Treasure Casting Garden and the lord of the country is? If you dare to do wrong to Miss Situ, can you admit your guilt?"

Without waiting for Dou Nankai, who was stupidly paralyzed on the ground, Shen Shifang shook his head and said, "City Lord, we are not pressuring you and others with power, it's just that you have done things hastily again and again, and let these people exonerate themselves. So, don't think we're bullying. ”

"Naturally, what kind of identity does Miss Situ have, how can she slander you grass people? The lord slammed his back on the table, causing the lid of the cup to fall to the ground.

A crisp voice startled Dou Nankai, and he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "The city lord spares his life, it was the slave who had a bad intention, and I recruited it." ”

"Hmph, I didn't expect you and other scum to come out of my house. Come, gather people, and send all these people to prison. The city lord ordered.

"There are still a few people in the inn who are unconscious, send someone to bring them back!" Shen Shifang said.

In less than a moment, dozens of soldiers pressed down Dou Nankai, the unconscious Mao Sandao and a group of city defense officers and soldiers.

The city lord stood up, respectfully walked in front of Situ Jie and the others, and saluted: "Miss Situ, can you be satisfied with this treatment?"

"First of all, I have no official and no position, where does the word "lowly position" come from? Second, as the chief military officer, political affairs, and civil official of Tancheng, you don't need to ask how to deal with it, everything is in accordance with the law of the country. Situ Jie didn't give him a good look.

Even if it weren't for the eldest lady of the Treasure Casting Garden, she would not have the idea of being superior to others now, and treat others as if she were an ordinary person.

The city lord nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, I will definitely enforce the law impartially and give you an explanation." ”

Although Situ Jie said this, he didn't dare to think that the former was an ordinary person, and his lifeline could be said to be in her hands, and he couldn't be despised it.

Shen Shifang saw that this was almost over, so he said lightly: "The city lord has found out the truth, and I will wait for a few people to retire first." As for this sinus ....... ”

When Shen Shifang's eyes looked at Dou Tu, the latter was terrified, thinking that if he offended such a powerful lord, he might not be able to retreat with his whole body. Fortunately, he was not too out of line, and he obeyed his words, so he waited for the fate with a fluke mentality. ”

As for him, because his confession attitude is quite good, he also testified against Dou Nankai, and hoped that the city lord would make his own decisions. Shen Shifang thought about it, but still didn't interfere and let him deal with it himself.

However, Shen Shifang's words were a bit of a pleading.

Without waiting for the city lord to speak, Shen Shifang motioned for Situ Jie and the two to leave together, and when he left, he turned around and said: "By the way, I would like to tell you that you will be in your position and seek your own government." If they all govern like you, how can the people live and work in peace and contentment in the world? Shape up or ship out. ”

Shen Shifang dropped this sentence and led Situ Jie and Xiao Yang away in a dashing manner, leaving the city lord in place to reflect on his words.

In the early morning, the sky was clear, and the sun was shining on the ground, glowing with some silver. After a night of light rain, the streets of Tancheng seem to be much cleaner, and the plants are full of life.

The shouting of the vendors along the street is endless, but there are also people coming and going, which is very lively.

Tancheng South Gate

Out of fear of disturbing passers-by, Shen Shifang pulled a carriage along the street and walked here, rather than galloping on a horse.

However, although Shen Shifang had no intention of disturbing the people, others may not.

With the sound of horses' hooves and wheels, pedestrians looked to the other side of the street.

Soon, a carriage and more than a dozen officers and soldiers came behind Shen Shifang.

And after the carriage stopped, the city lord of Tancheng fell from it, walked in front of Shen Shi with small steps, and said, "I learned that Miss Situ was going to leave, so I came to see him off." ”

"No, just do your part. Situ Jie's light voice came from the carriage.

"You go back! We don't like publicity. Shen Shifang had already noticed the gaze around him, with some curiosity.

This city lord, who is rarely seen on weekdays, actually came to the city gate today to see him off in person, who is in this carriage?

This can't help but make the people curious!

The city lord agreed, and then said: "After the little brother's words last night, the old man was enlightened. In the future, I will love the people like a son and govern law and order, thank you here. ”

As he spoke, he was about to lean over, but was stopped by Shen Shifang, who said, "What kind of person you want to do, choose for yourself." But don't forget, it's not just the people who are watching. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Shifang looked up at the sky, pointed, and then said, "God is also watching." ”

responded to a sentence: people are doing and the sky is watching.

Shen Shifang shook his head, laughed, and left Tancheng.

In the next two days, the road was smooth, and Baixi City was close at hand. During this time, it was Situ Jie who got the biggest gain. She not only learned a lot of principles about how to behave in the world from Shen Shifang, but also mingled with them, and her friendship became more consolidated.

Similarly, it has also changed many of the problems of the eldest lady.

Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, but they are also.

The carriage stopped in a small forest outside the city, and Situ Jie rested here in the shade of the tree, watching the two Shen Shifang brothers put on their masks.

This appearance is the same as when he left the Flowing Cloud Sect. The ordinary Shen Shifang, the white and handsome Xiao Yang.

"Let's go! Go back early. Shen Shifang said.

"Mmmm, I don't know if my cousin they're back?" Situ Jie said after letting Shen Shifang help him get into the carriage.

"As long as there are no accidents, it should be back. Shen Shifang said.

secretly thought that Hua Xi must be teaching the cultivation of the mind to the emperor's relatives and relatives, but in fact, he was discussing some things with the lord of the country.

How could Shen Shifang, who was extremely smart, not see it?

Situ Jie said worriedly: "I don't know if they will be in danger." ”

"Don't worry, there is Uncle Zhuang on the return trip, and no one dares to look for trouble. Shen Shifang comforted.

As they spoke, they had reached the gates of the city.

I saw that there were many more city defense officers and soldiers at the gate of the city this time, and the people were asked to line up to enter the city and check them one by one.

Xiao Yang looked at the person in front of him and suddenly said, "Brother, we met an acquaintance." ”

Shen Shifang said through the curtains, "Who?"

"Those people in Luohuaxuan. ”

Shen Shifang thought to himself, what is Luohuaxuan doing in Baixi City? Is it to go to the Liuyun Sect?

"Why did they come here?" Situ Jie said puzzled.

Shen Shifang shook his head, he said, "I don't know, I'm afraid it's going to Liuyun Sect!"

I saw that everyone in Luohuaxuan was one person and one horse, cooperating with the inspection of the city defense officers and soldiers. There were a group of six of them, among which the door owners Li Qiuniang and Li Yan were among them.

"Ask the people in the carriage to drop off and do a routine check. When a city defense officer saw a carriage, he came to greet them and asked them to prepare for the inspection in advance.

Xiao Yang didn't say anything, and took the lead in getting out of the carriage. Subsequently, Shen Shifang also helped Situ Jie to the back of the people's team.

"Mother, behind is the girl from the Treasure Casting Garden. Li Yan inadvertently found Situ Jie in the rear, so she said.

Li Qiuniang looked back, and sure enough, it was Situ Jie. And beside her, there were two more people. didn't say anything, and motioned for Li Yan to go into the city.

After Shen Shifang and the three of them were released, as soon as they entered the city, they found Luohuaxuan and his party parked in front. Looking at the direction of their gaze, it seemed that they had found Situ Jie and were waiting there.

Except for Situ Jie, he didn't think he would recognize himself and Xiao Yang. So he said to Situ Jie: "You go and deal with them." ”

Situ Jie pouted dissatisfiedly and said, "Why should I go?

Shen Shifang chuckled lightly and said, "The master of the family is a woman, so it's best for you to go." ”

"What does this deal have to do with men and women? I just saw that girl looked at you differently, why don't you go?" maybe she has taken a fancy to you?" Situ Jie said sourly.

Well, it smells of vinegar, but I don't know why it smells like vinegar.

"They recognize you, not me. Shen Shifang said embarrassedly.

He hadn't thought about the private affairs of these children, let alone that he didn't know Li Yan at all.

Situ Jie wanted to say something, but the three of them had already come to Luohuaxuan and everyone. In desperation, Situ Jie had no choice but to turn into the appearance of the eldest lady of the Treasure Casting Garden, and bowed forward generously: "I have seen Master Li, but I didn't expect to meet you here." ”

Li Qiuniang secretly thought that this Situ Jie was really a talented woman, she didn't have any pretentiousness in her words and deeds, she was smooth and polite.

So she also said: "Miss Situ don't have to be polite, I have some relationship with your mother, if you don't dislike it, just call me aunt." ”

Situ Jie smiled and said, "How can you dislike it?" Just don't blame Jie'er for not knowing etiquette. ”

"Then it's settled. Look at you, have you just returned from Zhuxincheng?" Li Qiuniang said softly.

"Exactly, I don't know where Master Li is going?" Situ Jie said.

Li Qiuniang said a little helplessly: "Didn't you say that you shouldn't see outside? Why don't you change your words?"

Situ Jie glanced at Shen Shifang, but the latter looked up at the sky and ignored it. She complained so much! I wanted to twist his waist hard, and what I didn't like the most was to deal with him, and she pushed herself out.

There is no way, she still has to take it, she said awkwardly: "Yes, aunt... Aunt. Where are you going?"

Li Qiuniang saw Situ Jie's eyes just now, and then looked at Shen Shifang and said, "I'm going to visit the Liuyun Sect, are you going to go with you?"

"I'm going back to Liuyun Sect, so let's go together!" Situ Jie said.

"Okay, let's go!" Li Qiuniang seemed to know Shen Shifang's disguise, but she didn't say anything, and rushed to Liuyun Sect again with everyone.

In front of the archway at the foot of Lingshan Mountain, Shen Shifang and the others saw the long-lost Liuyun Sect costumes, and their hearts settled down, feeling that this was the safest place.

Li Qiuniang went to the disciples of the Liuyun Sect and said, "Luohuaxuan Li Qiuniang has brought five people from the sect to visit the Liuyun Sect, please report to your Excellency. ”

A disciple of the Liuyun Sect saluted and said, "I have seen the Master of the Li Sect, go up the mountain first, and I will let someone go to report to the Sect Master first." ”

Immediately, a disciple's feet lit up, and he stepped on the snow to find plums, and then his figure disappeared.

When they arrived at the gate of the Liuyun Sect, Hua Luo led five junior disciples and several cultivation tower disciples to wait here.

Without waiting for Li Qiuniang to go to be polite, Shen Shifang and the three of them stepped forward and saluted: "Li'en led Liyang and Situ Jie to see the sect master, and we are back." ”

Hua Luo nodded and smiled happily: "It's good to come back, not bad." ”

"Sect Master Flower, it's been a long time. ”
