Chapter 15: The Valley
Chapter 15: The Valley
In the private room, Xia Yu, Wu Po, and Wang Sheng had already sat down, and the wine and food were put on the table.
Wu Po and Wang Sheng's eyes flashed with excitement, and Wu Po asked, "Brother Yu, are you really the son of the city lord?"
"Yes, I don't want to hide it, but it is inevitable that it will be a little inconvenient to walk in this city in the name of the young city lord, so I didn't say it, I'm sorry, two brothers. Xia Yu said with some guilt.
"Oh my God, this is really a rumor that kills people, and they all say that the son of the city lord is ······" Wu Po wanted to say that the city lord's son was mentally retarded, but looking at Xia Yu, who was in front of him with strong strength and elegant manners, he swallowed the following words back.
"It's rumored that I'm mentally retarded, right, but the rumors are true, I was the legend before I was fifteen, but I suddenly got better after fifteen. Xia Yu looked at Wu Po and Wang Sheng opposite, and said indifferently.
"Brother Yu, so you are really the young city lord of Yucheng and the grandson of King Xia. Wang Sheng said excitedly and excitedly.
"You even know this, yes, I am the son of the sixth son of King Xia, the city lord of Yucheng, Xia Yu. Xia Yu said again.
Wu Po and Wang Sheng glanced at each other, their eyes flashing with golden brilliance, as if they had discovered a gold mine.
"Wang Sheng, we are developed, and we have become good friends with Wang Sun. Wu Po said excitedly.
"Yes, I didn't expect Brother Yu's identity to be so noble. Wang Sheng said in disbelief.
The two of them originally admired Xia Yu very much, and now they are even more respectful.
Xia Yu looked at the subtle changes between the two, sighed in his heart, and said: "No matter what my identity is, it can't change the friendship between our brothers, you don't have to worry about my identity." ”
······
At this moment, in the City Lord's Mansion, Xia Chengfeng looked at the patriarchs of the four major families who came to ask for sin, and said with a smile in his heart: " The four old foxes of the four families, the four families have been multiplied in Yucheng for many years, deep-rooted, and the power is all over the city's all walks of life, they have been in Yucheng for more than ten years, and the decrees issued are not reasonable, all of them are these four old guys in the back. ”
"City Lord, there have been some misunderstandings among the juniors, we have arrested a few rebels and taken them back to the house to be strictly guarded, as for the affairs of the city guards, it is all Ren Shitao's private decision, and it has nothing to do with us. The head of the Huang family said, leaving the relationship between the four major families and the city guards clean.
After Xia Chengfeng listened to the words of the head of the Huang family, he smiled, his heart was like a mirror, and he didn't break it, and said: "We don't have to bother with the affairs of a few juniors, but the city guards went out without my orders, and they should be severely punished, which is also the fault of my majesty's laxity, and it has nothing to do with the four patriarchs. ”
"The city lord's order, we dare not disobey, although there are children of our four major families in the city guards, but they are all people who abide by the law and keep their own peace, if there is any fault, it is also a personal problem, and it has nothing to do with the four major families, and the city lord is invited to punish at will. The head of the Wang family said.
"What Patriarch Wang said is that some people have done some illegal things under the banner of the four major families, and I also know that these have nothing to do with the four major families, so I will clean up the portal for the city guards and the four major families, and it is good to restore the innocence of the four major families. Xia Chengfeng said.
When the patriarch of the four major families heard that Xia Chengfeng was going to take advantage of this matter to make a big move, his heart couldn't help but sink, but he had no reason to object, he just nodded yes with a sad face.
Xia Chengfeng looked at the sad faces of the four patriarchs, and his heart was very happy, and said: "Since the four patriarchs also support my decision, then do it, as for the misunderstanding of the juniors, let it go with the wind, and don't embarrass the juniors when you go home." ”
The four patriarchs walked out of the City Lord's Mansion with heavy steps, their faces all gloomy and terrifying.
"Hey, we're going to have a hard time in the future. The patriarch of the Wang family sighed and said.
"That little brute of mine, I'll ask for half his life when I go back. The head of the Huang family said angrily and turned to leave.
The three heads of the family, Wang, He, and Li, glanced at each other and went home.
Today is destined to have a hard time for a few people.
Xia Yu, Wu Po, and Wang Sheng came out of the private room and saw Ren Shitao still kneeling in the hall.
Ren Shitao saw Xia Yu walk out, like a person who fell into the water saw a straw, he quickly knelt down and climbed a few steps in front of Xia Yu, kowtowed and said: "The villain has seen the young city lord, the villain has eyes and no beads, he doesn't know the young city lord, and I also ask the young city lord to have a large number of noble hands to let me go." ”
"The crime of privately transferring the city guards is unforgivable, this matter is the city lord's fate, but I see that you are also instructed by others, you can make up for your merits, recruit the master behind the scenes, and I will also intercede for you in front of the city lord, whether you can seize the opportunity is up to you." After Xia Yu finished speaking, he left with Wu Po and Wang Sheng.
Ren Shitao looked at Xia Yu's back, carefully pondered Xia Yu's words, and finally made up his mind that he couldn't take care of his life anymore.
In the past few days, the wind and sun in Yucheng have been beautiful, but the city is indeed full of murderous atmosphere, and the smell of blood is strong.
Ren Shitao, the general of the city guards, took the initiative to expose some people in the city guards who were corrupt, bent the law, bullied the people, and privately withheld military salaries and other large and small crimes.
Xia Chengfeng was furious, and made every effort to rectify the city guards, the heavy ones were executed, and the light ones were imprisoned, so far the personnel arranged by the four major families in the city guards were all cleared, and the city guards were finally firmly held in Xia Chengfeng's hands.
Some people are happy and some are worried, when the sun rises, Yucheng appears in people's field of vision with a new look.
On this day, Xia Yu just walked into the hall when he saw Xia Chengfeng and said with a smile: " Yu'er, you came just in time, I just got a report, we found a hidden valley fifty miles east of Yucheng, shrouded in a spiritual mist, very mysterious, after exploration, there is an enchantment at the entrance of the valley, only those in the refining realm can pass through the light curtain, and the rest of the people can not break the light curtain no matter how strong they are, let alone pass, after investigation, it was learned that this is a powerful mansion or a place of cultivation, there are some rare and exotic fruits in it, and the people who went in were unable to bring out these rare and exotic fruits due to their low strength, which requires a powerful master of the refining realm to make a move, I don't know if you are willing to give it a try?”
When Xia Yu heard this, he immediately smiled and said: "Dad, of course I am willing, although my cultivation speed is not slow now, but if I can have the help of some rare and exotic fruits, I think I will reach the peak of the body refining realm faster, achieve the power of the Nine Dragons, and then open up the dantian." ”
"Okay, after you enter the valley, you must pay attention to safety, after all, everything is possible only if you are alive. Xia Chengfeng instructed.
"I know, can I bring two people with me?" Xia Yu asked.
"You mean your two friends, of course you can, this time you didn't go alone, I also informed the people of the four major families, after all, if you slap someone, you have to give a sweet date. Xia Chengfeng said.
