Chapter 172 Xu Hong was arrested
"Xu Tianlin, you, you actually killed City Lord Wei, aren't you afraid of the royal family's punishment!"
It took a long time for Han Yunxi to react, struggling and roaring, his voice full of fear.
Fortunately, it wasn’t him who persecuted him just now, otherwise, it would be a corpse lying on the ground. The people around him usually spoke well, but they were really in danger, and there was absolutely no one to help!
This is the Plastics Alliance, let alone the others.
"Punishment? Wei Hanjiang refused to accept my identity, and came to my Xu family, intending to assassinate me, but I killed him instead. Do you think... is he killing me, or questioning the prince's decision?"
Xu Tianlin spoke lightly.
"this…"
No one spoke in the room.
The prince was able to suddenly promote the other party to be the assistant director of the entire North County. He must have given him full trust. dream!
Dead people are worthless.
Ruthless is nothing but the imperial family, especially the royal family.
"Okay, everyone is the city lord, and they are in charge of Beijun together. Peace is the most important thing. Now that Hanshui City has no city lord, it will take a while for the news to reach His Royal Highness. Why don't we divide up the interests first... Coldshui City is worse than us. Jiyuan City is much richer, what do you guys think?"
Xu Tianlin laughed.
Everyone fell silent, and looked at the middle-aged man in front of them again, all showing awe.
Before, they all thought that the other party was just the patriarch of a small family in a small city, with no knowledge and no means. Facing their persecution, they would inevitably give in and handle it easily. Now they realize that it is a tiger at all!
First show weakness, then suddenly burst into cultivation, and killed Wei Hanjiang. Finally, invite everyone to carve up Hanshui City. If you agree, you will receive a certificate of honor. After that, everyone will be grasshoppers on the same rope. If you disagree, you will be an enemy, and you will kill one , don't mind killing one more...
Enough ruthless, enough absolute!
"I agree!" Han Yunxi was the first to stand up.
"I agree!"
With the first one, the second one is easy, and it didn't take long. The eight city lords all agreed.
"Then everyone sign the document..."
Xu Tianlin waved his hand, and the great elder immediately handed over a letter of appointment, which was the document appointing him as the lord of Jiyuan City and the Assistant Secretary of Beijun County.
Appointing the city lord, the prince's documents are enough, but the North County Assistant Secretary needs the approval of many city lords to have sufficient rights, otherwise, it is just empty shelf and useless.
Knowing that the other party killed City Lord Wei, he was killing chickens to scare monkeys. If he disagreed, he would definitely do it again. Without being too entangled, the eight city lords under him each took out their big seals representing their identities and stamped them below.
At this moment, Xu Tianlin's identity has been completely determined. After finishing all this, he was relieved. Just as he was about to greet everyone for dinner, he heard an indifferent voice from the air.
"Is Xu Tianlin here?"
Knowing that what should come has already arrived, Xu Tianlin walked out without the slightest hesitation.
In the air, more than a dozen flying monsters were suspended in the mid-air. The one in the front was none other than the right-hand man of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, led by Shan Jun!
Behind him, there are more than a dozen middle-aged men in armor, each of whom has a breath like a rainbow. You don't need to get close to know that all of them have reached the life-enhancing state!
Sent out more than a dozen life-enhancing powerhouses, led by Shan Jun, who has reached the triple life-enhancing level...
What a big lineup and handwriting!
Trembling slightly in his heart, Xu Tianlin still bowed and clasped his fists, "I'm Xu Tianlin, the current city lord of Jiyuan City, the Assistant Director of Beijun...I don't know why senior came here, what do you want me for?"
"Take it!"
Too lazy to talk nonsense, Shan Jun waved his hand.
Wow!
The monsters in the air swooped down immediately, and before they came to them, a dozen or so masters surrounded them.
"Commander Shan, what are you doing?"
At this moment, a lazy voice sounded.
Shan Jun turned his head to look, and immediately saw a young man leaning against a big tree not far away.
"Xu Hong?"
Shan Jun's pupils shrank suddenly, and he was a little dazed.
Shouldn’t this guy be in Liyuan Wangcheng? How did you get here?
Xu Hong sent over, "There was some misunderstanding between His Highness the Crown Prince and I. The reason he asked you to come to my family was to take me back. If that's the case, it's over for me to leave with you, and forget it for the others... My father, after all, It is the Assistant Director of Beijun personally appointed by His Highness, and even the owner of Jiyuan City. If he is taken away directly, it will definitely cause huge disturbances. You don’t want the whole Beijun to make a fuss! This is also very bad for the reputation of His Highness the Crown Prince..."
"this…"
Shan Jun was silent.
What exactly is the conflict between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the other party? As a subordinate, he doesn’t know about it. Last night, he happily invited the other party into the carriage, and let himself catch it later...
To be honest, he was also ignorant, and quietly asked about the crime, but the prince didn't say anything...
If it's really just a misunderstanding, don't offend too much... After all, although this young man is young, his status is not simple. Not to mention other things, Hongwu Academy and Dan Yuanzong have high status, and he is by no means a junior. The little commander can be offended.
"Why, such a simple choice, do you still need to think about it? Promise me to go with you immediately, if you don't agree, we will have a big fight..."
Xu Hong continued.
He is now betting that the crown prince will not say that he swallowed the dragon's veins and took away his longevity pattern... let alone that Cheng Liyuan, His Majesty the Great Patriarch, will be resurrected!
As long as these two things are not known to the other party, the impact of the arrest can be minimized, or even eliminated directly. At that time, my father has stabilized the identity of the city lord and assistant secretary.
Even if he noticed it, he excused himself by saying that he went hunting in the mountains, and his identity was there, so who would dare to have an opinion?
Because of this, the father must finalize the appointment documents.
Otherwise, the identity is not enough, and the matter of arresting people will become a big deal. Even if he comes out by himself and resists the trouble, once he leaves, Xujiazhuang will be swallowed up by other cities in Beijun.
"okay
Hesitated for too long, Shan Jun nodded, and said loudly: "Go and bring Master Xu Hong over, leave the others alone!"
"yes!"
The crowd drove the monsters to the big tree, and took the boy on the back of the beast.
"Father, Your Highness and I had some misunderstandings. Commander Shan and I will go back and explain clearly. You guys go back first, don't worry..."
Xu Hong smiled and looked around at the same time, "After I leave, I will trouble all the city lords to take care of our Xu family. After the misunderstanding between me and His Highness is resolved, I will come back, and thank you one by one!"
"Yes..." Many city lords, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know what to think.
Being able to be the lord of the city, they are all human beings. Naturally, they know that the words of the other party are both gratitude and threat. If they really dare to do anything to the Xu family, as long as they don’t die, they will definitely find them...
Before seeing someone coming to arrest Xu Tianlin, I had some small thoughts, but at this time, I dismissed them all.
If it is really just a misunderstanding and they do something they shouldn't do, they will be in big trouble.
Leaving aside this young man, his father alone is also not a good person... Forget it, let's not get involved!
In an instant, many people flinched.
"Let's go!"
Looking at the expressions of everyone, knowing that the goal had been achieved, Xu Hong smiled lightly, said no more, let the monsters carry him, and galloped away quickly.
"Hong'er..."
Seeing his son being taken away, Xu Tianlin fell silent. However, he also knew that the other party deliberately bought time for him to transfer the tribe, so he breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly, "Everyone, the crown prince and Hong'er are both young people, and it is very serious to have some conflicts." It's normal, but it's not a big problem. Our family, Hong'er, is not only the younger brother of Dean Xia of Hongwu College, but also the younger brother of Dan Yuan Zong Yang Mo's alchemist. He must have done something wrong, and His Royal Highness can take care of it... "
This is what Xu Hong deliberately explained.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the expressions of the eight city lords all changed.
With the backing of Hongwu Academy and Dan Yuanzong, even if this Xu Hong demolishes the palace, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would not dare to do anything to him!
"Oh, by the way, Hong'er's fiancée is also a direct disciple of Wu Yue, the elder of Yingyue Sect..."
Xu Tianlin continued.
Everyone was silent again. At this moment, they finally understood why this man dared to kill people directly, and why His Royal Highness suddenly gave him such a high status...
"Master Xu, I thought about it for a while, there is still something to do in Jiangyuan City, so I will go back first!"
"We also have something to do in Hanli City, let's say goodbye..."
In the blink of an eye, the eight city lords left one after another, and they didn't mention the previous plan to carve up Coldwater City.
Only then did Xu Tianlin heave a sigh of relief, "Great Elder, ask the city guards to guard Jiyuan City. No one is allowed to come, and no one is allowed to investigate. At the same time, let everyone in the Xu family return immediately, and buy enough supplies by the way. The object ring is full of…”
"yes!"
Understanding the seriousness of the matter, the Great Elder stopped talking and turned to leave.
Everything is properly arranged, Xu Tianlin sighed, and at the same time, his heart was full of doubts, to make the royal family ignore their faces, what did Hong'er do? Could it be that... someone's ancestral grave was dug up? Or put the princess to sleep?
…
Above the sky.
Looking at the young man on the back of the beast in front of him, Commander Shan Jun confirmed several times that it was indeed Xu Hong, and then he was relieved, with a strange expression on his face.
The crown prince confessed that he must bring the important family members of the other party here in order to achieve the purpose of threatening, so he directly arrested the other party...It feels magical to think about it.
"Master Xu, what happened in the palace last night?"
Unable to hold back the curiosity in my heart any longer, Transsion asked.
Last night, after he took [Huo Zhen Tie] to the prince, he left, and then he heard that the Kanyu map collapsed, the formation was in operation, and someone was fighting...
Then he was recalled to the palace and sent here. I asked many people about what happened, but they couldn't tell the reason.
"This matter is too complicated. If you know it, you will lose your head. Do you still listen?" Xu Hong said.
"Forget it..." Shan Jun shook his head decisively.
Is it not good to live? Why do you have to seek death...
The flying speed of the monsters was very fast. When they passed by Baiyu City, they changed a wave of monsters at the post station dedicated to the royal family. They continued on their way without resting.
Six hours later, the majestic imperial city appeared in front of me again.
"Go back and report to Your Highness..."
Turning his head to look at a subordinate at the Life-enhancing Realm, Commander Shan explained.
"yes!"
This subordinate, driving the flying monster, accelerated towards the direction of the imperial palace and arrived at the prince's eastern palace in a short while.
"This subordinate has met His Highness!"
After a short time, he came to Cheng Yu and knelt down on the ground.
"How about it? Can you arrest Xu Hong's relatives?" The prince looked up.
"Report to Your Highness..." The subordinate hurriedly replied, "We captured Xu Hong..."
"???"
The prince was taken aback for a moment, a little dazed, "What's going on?"
The subordinate explained: "We obeyed the order and went to arrest Xu Tianlin. At this moment, Master Xu Hong appeared. In order to avoid injury to both parties, he was willing to capture Xu Tianlin with nothing..."
"..."
Cheng Yu blinked.
It's too weird.
This kid was with me last night, and he ran to Jiyuan City today. Why does it feel like being arrested on his own initiative?
"Bring him here first... Forget it, I'll go over and see what's going on!"
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince took out a stick of incense and lit it in the main hall. Then he came to the back of the beast and flew straight to the outside of the city. After flying not far away, he met the people rushing over.
Seeing that Xu Hong was indeed on the back of the beast, Cheng Yu's eyes showed a strong strange look again.
"His Royal Highness, long time no see, please stay safe..."
Spreading his arms, Xu Hong made a gesture of Gao Qisheng and laughed loudly.
"???" Cheng Yu's mouth twitched.
Don't you have any sense of being captured?
You should know, I am going to kill you...
"Go down first!"
Knowing that making a lot of noise in the air would easily cause unnecessary trouble, Cheng Yu didn't bother to answer, and controlled the flying monster to quickly land in the direction of the East Palace.
"Go down first!"
Entered the main hall and brought Xu Hong to the burning incense. Cheng Yu waved his hand.
Glanced suspiciously, Commander Shan still retreated.
"Xu Hong... Did you steal the dragon veins and my ancient blood-eating beast longevity pattern with a secret method?"
Cheng Yu's face darkened.
"Your Highness, you are wronged...Even if I wanted to steal the dragon's veins, I would not be able to do so...It must be that monster from yesterday!"
Xu Hong shook his head hastily.
Just kidding, I definitely don’t admit it!
Anyway, the dragon vein has been swallowed by the eel, and there is no proof of death...
"..." Cheng Yu's eyelids twitched wildly.
If Gao Zu really did it, he wouldn’t ask why they destroyed the dragon’s veins as soon as he came out...
"Although I don't know what that monster is, but... he is so powerful, he will definitely threaten the position of His Highness, how about... how about we join forces and kill him?"
Xu Hong lowered his voice.
"..."
Cheng Yu was speechless.
This guy is indeed not conscious of being caught...
Teaming up with…
I want to kill each other, but are you qualified?
The two senior brothers, the sixth-level peak powerhouses of longevity enhancement, were killed on the spot. He didn't believe that the one in front of him could do it.
"I'm definitely no match, but Yang Mo and Xia Yuan, together with Elder Wu Yue, combined with the three of them, even if he increases his lifespan seven times, he may not be able to win!"
Seeing his thoughts, Xu Hong chuckled lightly.
"this…"
Cheng Yu's heart was shocked, and his eyes narrowed immediately.
