The ring-shaped red snake was posted early in the morning, and it became a topic of conversation after tea in Longgang City. A few people sat on the side of the street chatting, and when they saw Xia Xiao, they muttered.

"It was he and Xia Xu who killed the ring-shaped red snake. ”

"It's amazing. ”

"I guess Xia Xiao's strength is not weak. Have you heard that the previous city lord sent someone to assassinate him, but it didn't work, and more than 40 people died overnight. ”

"Mom, a dozen forty?"

......

Xia Xiao ignored it, walked through the street, and came to the City Lord's Mansion. Today, the guards here no longer stopped him, but treated him with great respect. Walking into the front hall, the tall and thin Yang Zhen was waiting.

"Young Master Xia, please take a seat!"

"Lord Castle, is there something wrong?"

Because he drank a lot of wine last night, he got up late this morning, and when he woke up, there was news that the city lord had summoned him, but what did he do with him? Although he didn't know, Xia Xiao didn't refuse, and still came. Now this city lord can still try to get along.

"That's right, I am very grateful for yesterday's incident, and I have prepared some gifts, please accept them. ”

Yang Zhen waved his hand, and his men walked in carrying three boxes. Such a large box, first of all, it is not money!

"Lord Castle, what is this?"

"I know that the Xia family doesn't love money, so I prepared these. ”

When I opened the box, it was full of precious silks, smooth as water, and very valuable at first glance.

"These are all brought by me from home, thinking of making a few clothes for the capable people of Longgang City, and now it seems that the Xia family is the most qualified to get them. ”

Xia Xiao glanced at his dress, which was indeed too simple. A cloth coat and a pair of cloth shoes couldn't be simpler. If it weren't for his own strong temperament, I'm afraid he would be no different from ordinary people.

"These gifts are too expensive......"

Xia Xiao saluted Yang Zhen, accepted it, and forgot the things, his Xia family never liked to owe favors. Yang Zhen seemed to see his concerns, and immediately said:

"These are nothing compared to ice grass, so you must accept them. ”

Yang Zhen was very persistent, and Xia Xiao finally nodded and said yes.

Sitting back in the chair, Xia Xiao said thank you again, and then he didn't know what to say, he and Yang Zhen had no common topic. Yang Zhen looked like he had something to say, but he didn't say it for a long time.

"Hmm...... Young Master Xia, I didn't mean to expose your scars, I just wanted to know the situation of the Xia family. ”

Xia Xiao was a little surprised and asked:

"You don't know?"

Yang Zhen nodded embarrassedly and said:

"Although I am from the imperial capital, I am not at home all the year round, before I came to Longgang, I worked in the eastern town of Great Xia, and as soon as I was transferred back to the imperial capital, I heard that the position of the city lord of Longgang City was vacant, so I took the initiative to transfer over. You know, this kind of remote place, a lot of people don't want to come. And now it has become a border, and the next war will start here. ”

It is said that success or failure is seen in the details, Xia Xiao had a good impression of Yang Zhen yesterday, and when he heard this, he admired it even more. There should be more people like Yang Zhen.

"The Zhu family added fuel to the fire, causing us to lose everything, and then he took the place where my father should have been sitting. The grudge between our two families was not deep, after all, I left the emperor because I couldn't cultivate, but after he knew that I could cultivate, he bought off the previous city lord Yang Songran and wanted to kill us. To tell you the truth, in the two months since the war, because his father and eldest brother were not there, he sent killers many times, and the Zhu family also came twice in person. ”

Regarding the affairs of the Xia family, the people in Longgang City did not know everything, otherwise Yang Zhen would not have asked Xia Xiao in person. But when I heard it at this time, I was immediately angry.

"Then Zhu Heng is afraid that you will return to the imperial capital, which is why he is so ruthless?"

These are not secrets, Xia Xiao nodded directly and did not hide it.

"Well, I was an idiot before I was ten years old, and I was struck by lightning under the vision of heaven and earth before I regained my senses, and I happened to be a person from afar in the ancient prophecy, so if I can cultivate and return to the imperial capital, the Zhu family will be doomed. ”

Yang Zhen clenched his fists, filled with righteous indignation. He had heard some of Xia Jinghong's name, and the northern part of the Great Xia Dynasty was settled under his rule. I don't want him to fight desperately on the front line, the people of the Zhu family are behind the scenes, which is really shameless.

"Why don't you report it?"

Yang Zhen's words caused Xia Xiao to sneer.

"Report to whom? Who can transmit the news to the imperial capital? What can it do if it reaches the imperial capital?"

Yang Zhen was silent, and only after pondering did he figure it out. Indeed, the current Xia family's status is lower than that of ordinary people, and they can't report it at all.

"But one day, they'll deserve it!"

After Xia Xiao finished speaking, he returned to his usual unsmiling face.

"Young Master Xia, don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut. ”

"It's okay, it's not a secret. ”

"What are you going to do? How to take back everything that belongs to the Xia family. ”

Yang Zhen suddenly felt that he was talking too much, but Xia Xiao still answered.

"Selection!"

After speaking, Xia Xiao got up and saluted.

"City Lord, Xia Xiao has taken his leave!"

He said enough to leave. Yang Zheng ordered his subordinates to carry the box and send it over, and then dropped the teacup in his hand, but he was still angry.

Pu Lao came up and asked:

"Got it all?"

"Well, the Zhu family is really a villain!"

Pu Lao sighed and persuaded:

"Don't get excited, be careful of getting yourself involved. ”

Yang Zhen glared and became a little angry.

"Old Pu, it is precisely because there are too many people who have such thoughts about you that the Zhu family dares to be so rampant. From now on, I'm going to help the Xia family. ”

"How can I help?"

"For their sake. ”

"But what about your family?"

Pu Lao's words made Yang Zhen stunned, he was far away in Longgang, and his family was still in the imperial capital. If what he did was known to the Zhu family, I am afraid that there would be trouble.

After going around the hall, although Yang Zhen was a little entangled, he still said:

"If evil doesn't prevail over good, the Zhu family will be finished sooner or later, at most let him jump for a while!"

Pu Lao shook his head secretly, this world is not a good person who can have a good reward.

"By the way, what about the person who took the medicine yesterday?"

"The reaction is good, when the medicine approved by the dynasty comes down, this matter will be over!"

The stone in Yang Zhen's heart finally fell, and this was the first thing he did for Longgang. But for the Xia family, he always wanted to do something more, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only wait and see what happened. However, as long as Yang Zhen is in office for one day, he will not let the people of Longgang hurt the Xia family again. Even if Xia Xiao said so much, Yang Zhen knew that only they knew how much suffering the Xia family had experienced.

I heard from my subordinates that when they first came to Longgang City, no one dared to take them in, and they didn't involve others, but just sold carriages, sold clothes, and lived in mass graves. This stay is more than a year, I don't know how long I will stay there.

Yang Zheng sighed, he really responded to that sentence, a patriotic person with an upright heart was wandering, and the clown who could only sensationalize was sitting in a high hall.
