"What's going on outside?"
On the other side of the wall, a middle-aged man who had just entered the inn all wet and had just showered, changed into clean clothes, heard the noisy noise and asked the waiter who came in to clean.
The waiter glanced at the closed door and said, "Two tenants are arguing outside. Our boss has already gone over. You don't need to worry about it."
The middle-aged man said no more and read the newly delivered documents under the candlelight.
There are many bandits in Luyang, and His Majesty has high hopes for him. This time he will definitely wipe out the bandits completely.

"So, you remembered it wrongly before. You first gave the room to this big brother, and then turned around and gave it to him again?"
The shopkeeper with a small mustache nodded repeatedly. There were two tall and strong men standing here, so how could he dare to tell a lie?
After listening to his explanation, Yan Cheng thought that it was very inconvenient in ancient times because there was no advanced technology.
If there were a system to record the information of the occupants in modern times, there would basically be no situation where one room was rented to two people.
Unless there is a bug in the system.
"What? Are you capable of doing things? You actually gave me the room you gave him?"
Yan Cheng glanced to the side and saw Ding Shang rolling up his sleeves and glaring at the shopkeeper with a small mustache. If the shopkeeper had not admitted his mistake and apologized quickly, this hot-tempered guy would have punched him.
The mustache shopkeeper quickly slid to his knees, but Ding Shang refused to give in: "Why should I change the room? I want this room, you change it for him!"
The shopkeeper with a small mustache looked at the burly man apologetically and was about to speak when he was sternly refused.
"You already said you gave me this room first."
The implication is that he is unwilling to give up this room.
"I want this room. I'll pay more." Ding Shang started to argue with the burly man.
"Oh, I'll add money too."
The shopkeeper with a small mustache was in a dilemma. Yan Cheng didn't want to listen to them continue making a fuss. He had good eyesight and had already seen the heads sticking out from behind the door.
He gave the shopkeeper an idea: "Can you open two new rooms for them?"
“Sure, sure.”
The shopkeeper with a small mustache thought this was a good idea. Reopening the room would not offend anyone, so he looked at the two guests in a flattering and pleading manner.
"Why? I..." No!
"OK."
When Yan Cheng covered Ding Shang's mouth to stop him from arguing any further, the burly man looked at him, and for some reason he agreed to the suggestion so nicely.
The shopkeeper with a small mustache quickly found two empty rooms upstairs and gave them to Ding Shang and the burly man, and the room that the two had fought over became empty.
The burly man didn't leave in a hurry. Yan Cheng turned around and faced the other person's abdomen. He looked at him silently for a while, then looked up at the other person's face.
"Anything else?"
"You are very interesting, Yan Cheng, aren't you? I will remember you."
Unexpectedly, the other party left after saying this, and his final look was meaningful enough.
Yan Cheng: ???
What does this mean?
The domineering president is interested in me?
Come on, he's just a kid!
This is not the end. Just as they sent away a strong man who seemed to be very interested in children, a violent teenager on the other side pulled his arm and wouldn't let go.
"Yan Cheng, what did you mean just now? Why did you help him and not me?"
Yan Cheng was completely baffled. "When did I help him? Besides, why should I help you? What's our relationship? Why do you say it's so reasonable for me to help you?"
"We are classmates, if you don't help me, who will you help?"
"...When you were giving me trouble before, you didn't treat me as a classmate."
Although every time I tried to cause trouble, I failed.
At this time, Ding Shang's guards and servants who were careless and left their master alone finally came up. Yan Cheng heard the footsteps and looked over there, just in time to see Leng Yan coming up from behind. He no longer cared about Ding Shang and went to find Leng Yan.
"Hey, Yan Cheng, are you leaving just like that?"
Ignoring the shouting behind him, Yan Cheng closed the door and asked Leng Yan how his investigation went and why Ding Shang appeared here.
*
Ding Shang was furious about Yan Cheng running away without even saying goodbye, and shouted at Yan Cheng in dissatisfaction.
However, Yan Cheng ignored him, which made him even angrier. He wanted to catch Yan Cheng and ask him why he never took him seriously.
However, just as he had this thought, the man who followed Yan Cheng like a shadow suddenly turned around and looked at him as if he had the ability to read minds.
Ding Shang felt his body become extremely stiff and he watched the door close.
He felt cold all over, as if he was in an ice cave. The person had clearly left, but he could not forget that look.
That person was like a god of death who walked out of a sea of blood and corpses. Every move he made was filled with murderous intent and blood.
Did Yan Cheng know that the subordinate he trusted was such a person?
*
Yan Cheng would sometimes gossip a little, and Leng Yan would usually satisfy his curiosity. He just disappeared just to find out about this.
Ding Shang's guards were not very vigilant. Leng Yan walked over and spoke to the people below with a warm smile, and got some useful information.
"Tongzhi Ding offended someone and was sent to the southwest border to serve as prefect. The situation between Daxia and Nanyou was tense, and the southwest border was unsafe. Tongzhi Ding was afraid that Ding Shang would get into trouble in the southwest, so he decided to send him to his father-in-law's house."
"So, even if I'm in the capital, I might be harassed by Ding Shang in the future?"
Thinking of the pain he had suffered during those years when he was blocked by a violent young man and was yelled at, Yan Cheng was speechless. What kind of bad fate did he and Ding Shang have?
