Chapter 2098 Attempted Hijacking
Shao Yunduan declined, and Captain Li smiled coldly: "Before I came, Lord Liu gave a death order to take back at least half of the silver and grain. This is what Anzezhou should have handed over. Lord Shao has no reason to refuse! If Lord Shao is unwilling, we brothers will have to stay in Anzezhou. When Lord Shao pays, we will leave."
"Otherwise, why don't you go to the provincial capital in person and talk to Lord Liu?"
Captain Li had an arrogant look on his face, making it clear that he only listened to Lord Liu, and nothing else he said would make any difference!
He behaved in such a shameless manner that everyone in Anzezhou was furious!
The person sent by the prefect turned out to be such a person.
Shao Yunduan naturally refused to compromise with him. "You can stay if you want. You can stay at the post station as you like. You will never go hungry for three meals a day. But that's all. If you are not satisfied, you can pay for it yourself and stay as long as you want."
Jia Heming understood Shao Yunduan's meaning and immediately said, "Don't worry, sir. Leave this matter to me. I promise to entertain the guests well."
Anyway, the post station in Anzezhou City is so small, not enough to accommodate? Find a way yourself!
Three meals a day, steamed buns, one meat and one vegetable, are provided. As for whether they are delicious or not, that is your own problem. Wine? Absolutely not!
As for the provincial capital, there is no way Shao Yunduan would go there.
In this chaotic world, only Master Guang Miao knows how to be cautious and thorough in order to save his life.
Prefect Liu was so arrogant and unreasonable. Even if Shao Yunduan went, how could he possibly make peace with him? It would be better not to go.
Captain Li was so angry that he was about to smoke.
But he didn't dare to act rashly. He had experienced it last time. The martial arts of these constables in Anzezhou were no worse than his, and those yamen runners were not easy to mess with.
If a real fight breaks out, he will not be able to gain the upper hand even if he brings three hundred men.
Captain Li brought three hundred men and actually stayed in the post station.
Jia Heming's hospitality made everyone angry but dare not speak out.
After holding it in for two days, Captain Li couldn't stand it any longer.
Captain Li had no choice but to go to Shao Yunduan again. After a while of trying to no avail, he asked Shao Yunduan to send him out of the city.
"Master Shao sent us out of the city. At least this is for everyone to see. It proves that Master Shao has a good relationship with the prefect..."
Captain Li hinted explicitly that the prefect also had to save face. If Lord Shao was too disrespectful to him, how would the prefect save his face when other county magistrates saw him?
By then, the relationship between the prefect and the adults will inevitably deteriorate, and I'm sure the adults don't want to see it turn out like that...
Although he was not afraid of him, it was not a good thing for Captain Li to stay in Anzezhou City with 300 people. Since he was willing to leave, he just wanted a way out. Shao Yunduan only thought about it and nodded in agreement.
It would be good if we could send him away as soon as possible.
No one expected that outside the city, Captain Li would suddenly attack and try to capture Shao Yunduan!
If he didn't know that A'ye, who was beside Shao Yunduan, was extremely skilled, he would have looked down on him and was blocked by A'ye. He might have succeeded!
Ah Ye reacted very quickly and blocked the sudden attack from Captain Li. Then Captain Li's three hundred men whistled and started to attack at the same time. This gave Shao Yunduan some time to catch his breath and dodge.
In just a moment, Shao Yunduan had ordered his guards to protect him. The fifty or so people who came to see him off were not at all inferior to Captain Li's men.
