Volume 1, Chapter 74: The wanted order is revoked. Is this deputy city lord Zhou Rui's father?
Seeing this, Dongfang Qingzhu looked at Ye Tingmu with an inquiring look.
She also didn't know how to deal with Sun An.
Her dependence on Ye Tingmu made her look at him instinctively.
Murong Bo naturally noticed this scene keenly.
There was a bit more scrutiny in the look he gave Ye Tingmu.
Deputy City Lord Zhou Fengming also looked at him.
There is depth in his sharp eyes.
It's as if he can see through others at a glance.
Ye Tingmu coughed lightly.
He said calmly, "Well, it's okay. Ignorance is not a crime. It's also our fault that we executed the county magistrate without reporting it to the upper Cloud City."
Dongfang Qingzhu nodded after hearing this.
"Yeah, I don't blame you. Get up."
"Sun An thanks Miss Qingzhu." Then he stood up, stepped back and stood aside.
Upon hearing this, Murong Bo's flushed face once again displayed a flattering smile.
Looking at Ye Tingmu, he asked, "Young lady, you are truly kindhearted. May I know who this person is?"
He was very curious about what kind of person could make the eldest daughter of the Dongfang family so obedient and spare the person who had drawn a knife against her before with just a few words.
In his opinion, this scholar must be of extraordinary status.
Moreover, Sun An had said before that the person who beheaded the county magistrate was this scholar.
Dongfang Qingzhu's eyes were evasive and rolling around.
"He, he is my teacher, yes, my teacher."
Seeing that she didn't look very smart, Ye Tingmu couldn't help but hold his forehead.
I have become a teacher myself, how come I didn’t know it?
But I felt like it was quite a face-saving thing, and I couldn't help but subconsciously raise my hand and put on the demeanor of a teacher.
Murong Bo also hurriedly complimented, saying: "Sir, you are so young, and you can be Miss's teacher. I think you must be very knowledgeable and talented. I am so disrespectful."
Ye Tingmu's brows relaxed slightly, with a hint of pride on his face.
"Thank you for the compliment, City Lord. I cannot take it seriously."
Unexpectedly, Murong Bo is such a sweet talker.
"Excuse me, sir, what is your last name?"
"My last name is Ye."
"So it's Mr. Ye. How about we go into the city now? The weather is a little chilly, so don't let yourselves get cold. I've already sent someone to Shangyunju to prepare a banquet, and we can eat and chat while we do so."
When they heard about Shangyunju, little stars twinkled in Qingfeng and Jinghong's eyes.
A face full of anticipation.
Ye Tingmu coughed lightly.
"That's great. Then please, Lord City Lord, lead the way."
"Mr. Ye, you are too polite. You and I can address each other as peers. Just call me Murong."
"Haha." Ye Tingmu chuckled, and then said: "No, how can we lose our manners."
"Hahaha, Miss, Mr. Ye, please."
"please."
So everyone headed towards the city gate.
Passing by the corner of the city, Ye Tingmu looked at the posted notice.
Remind: "Look, City Lord Murong, is this a wanted order?"
He doesn't want to be wanted all the time.
Five thousand taels! Who knows what to do if that desperate criminal comes to harm me.
"Ah, misunderstanding, misunderstanding." Having said this, Murong Bo paused.
"Someone, take down this notice."
Upon hearing this, Sun An subconsciously looked at Zhou Fengming but did not move.
Seeing this, Murong Bo angrily asked, "Why, do you need me to repeat it again?"
Zhou Fengming spoke.
His tone was a little cold and a bit threatening.
"What are you looking at me for? Didn't you hear what the city lord said?"
Sun An nodded quickly.
"Yes, yes, yes, I'll do it right away. Come on, tear up all the notices."
The contrast between Sun An before and after caught Murong Bo's attention.
A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and his expression was even more displeased. He glanced at Zhou Fengming.
Zhou Fengming was not flustered, but bowed to him and Dongfang Qingzhu.
"City Lord, Miss Dongfang, I won't be accompanying you. I still have some things to take care of in the military camp. Please forgive me."
Murong Bo groaned.
"Since you are busy, please do as you please." Then his expression changed and he smiled again.
"Miss, Mr. Ye, you won't mind, right?"
"Of course not. Let's go."
"Yeah, let's go."
Ye Tingmu could see that these two people definitely did not get along.
It is obvious that Sun An is more afraid of Zhou Fengming.
It seems that this fat guy doesn't have the final say in Shangyun City.
As expected, the officialdom is full of power struggles and calculations.
But it had nothing to do with him, and he was too lazy to think about it.
He raised his eyebrows and continued to head towards the Cloud City.
With the city lord's guidance, the situation will be great.
As night fell on the avenue, pedestrians consciously kept to the sides.
There are pioneers leading the way ahead.
He was followed by guards.
Among them, there are no less than ten people above the four realms.
In the dark, there are six realms of divine beings guarding secretly.
It seems that we have made the right decision to come to Shangyun City. With this lineup, we should be safe.
Even though Fengyueting Haizong is so awesome, he wouldn't dare to assassinate him in front of the city lord.
Thinking of this, the smile on his face widened.
After the few people left, Zhou Fengming clenched his fists, and a cold light flashed in his sharp eyes.
Obviously, he did not expect that the person behind the murder of Li's father and son was actually Dongfang Qingzhu.
He was nearly killed by Xu Mang.
"Go, send a message to the thirty-six counties to remove all notices."
Sun An clasped his fists.
"yes."
Then left in a hurry.
The crowd around gradually dispersed.
Without the excitement to watch, naturally people don’t want to stay.
However, the arrival of Miss Dongfang in Shangyun City caused quite a stir.
Rumors about her were also spreading rapidly in Shangyun City.
The story of Ye Tingmu beheading the county magistrate has also become a beautiful story.
Later storytellers put it this way: The eldest daughter of the Dongfang family passed through Jinzhou, redressed the grievances of the people, and beheaded the unscrupulous county magistrate and the bully.
Show the style of a noble family and restore the blue sky.
In the darkness, two figures lowered their heads and whispered.
"I'll follow the young lady. You quickly return to report to the head of the family and have someone sent to Shangyun City to pick us up."
"good."
When the crowd dispersed, a man in black robe appeared beside Zhou Fengming.
"City Lord Zhou, what should we do about Hall Master Xu?"
"Tell him that this person cannot be moved. We cannot afford to offend the Dongfang family."
"Then how do we explain to Elder Li? After all, she is the young lady's teacher."
Zhou Fengming frowned.
"What his brother did deserves ten deaths. If she knows what's good for her, then she'll just be unlucky. If she doesn't, let her be. Rui'er is already at the fifth level of True Essence and has extraordinary talent. Even without her guidance, there will naturally be people vying for her."
"Okay, then I'll send the letter by flying eagle."
Zhou Fengming nodded.
"Go ahead."
Watching the black robe disappear into the night, he looked up at the sky with lingering fear.
This time he almost made a big mistake. If Dongfang Qingzhu was really harmed because of his wanted warrant, he would be afraid that his life would be in danger.
All my efforts over the years will be wasted.
I'm afraid even the higher-ups can't protect him.
He didn't want to follow in Shangguan Yun's footsteps.
Just because the higher-ups want to give an explanation to the Dongfang family.
A person at the peak of the sixth realm, the lord of a city, can be killed at will.
He hurried back to his residence and started writing.
A letter soon appeared in his hands.
Then he was taken to Beimang by someone.
Zhou Fengming looked at the flickering candlelight and said coldly, "Humph, Murong Bo, I'm afraid you won't be the city lord for many more days."
PS: Continue to increase the word count.
I wish you all a happy weekend.
I received feedback from readers that the speed is a bit slow.
Well...how should I put it, it is true.
However, the author does not repeat any plot, nor does he repeat any plot in a nesting manner.
Although the writing skills are not good enough, the author does not write mindless and exciting articles.
Every plot of mine will be linked to every plot.
It is necessary for it to appear, but of course I can't spoil it here, otherwise there will be no sense of anticipation.
But the author writes slowly. Not for the sake of water.
Another reader said that I am running out of steam?
If it refers to combat power, the author does not admit it.
This is a book for bringing up children.
We should focus on the main line and also on life.
Don’t pay too much attention to whether the heroine is the heroine or not. After becoming a parent, the word love comes after kinship.
The water element is over, and it is another day full of energy.
