Chapter 72 Commander Lu, I'm here to take you home
Shen Yuheng sat in the carriage, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand. Even though he turned the beads for a long time, the depression in his heart could not be relieved.
He hasn't come back yet at this time, so he must have been harassed by someone in the Patrol Department.
Places like these where militias gather often connect many factions, but no matter what faction they are, they all have one thing in common:
That is barbaric.
If you can't convince them, they won't reason with you.
This group of people only recognize fists.
One of the reasons why Shen Yuheng was holding a grudge against Wei Mingzhu was that she had gone to the emperor and spoken a few words without saying a word, not only dragging him into the situation, but in the end, the position she was given was that of commander of the patrol department, a thankless job.
You know, the last guy who worked here was driven away by that group of soldiers.
The sedan chair had landed, but before Shen Yuheng got out, he heard the doormen outside talking to each other.
"Tsk tsk, it's really lively today. I've never seen anything like this before. The tiger has turned into a turtle and can no longer show off its power."
"Hey, didn't you look at the boss like that just now? His eyes were so dark."
Shen Yuheng listened to this somewhat gloating discussion and his heart was finally at ease.
He got out of the carriage, holding the curtain, and his eyes swept over the plaque of the Governor's Office.
At this moment, the few people who were whispering at the door of the Patrol Office discovered that a magnificent carriage had stopped at the door.
Someone with sharp eyes had already recognized whose sedan chair it was and hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Prime Minister Shen."
Shen Yuheng hummed lightly, but there was a hint of anxious anger between his brows, as if he was about to explode at any time.
The doorman was terrified. He had always heard that Chen Xiang was a decisive and ruthless person. When he saw him today, he was really scared by his aura.
"Where is Commander Lu?" Shen Yuheng asked with some impatience, and swept his cold eyes around, but none of the people around him dared to look him in the eye.
——
Inside the Patrol Division’s competition arena:
Lu Qiaoxiao was dressed in warrior attire, with her hair tied up in a high ponytail hanging behind her head, looking quite elegant and romantic.
Holding a spear, the tip of the spear gleamed in the sunlight, emitting a chilling cold light that made people shudder.
Those usually cute peach blossom eyes were now bright and full of fighting spirit.
"Next." She said coldly, her eyes sweeping sharply to the left and right.
The person on the left who was resting against the wall had already fought with her. Although he was not injured, he was exhausted.
Half of the people on the right had not yet joined the arena, but the way the men looked at the woman in the arena had quietly changed.
The disdain and amusement with which the first person looked at this woman when she first came on stage had turned into respect and admiration when she knocked down the tenth person.
And just now, when the twentieth colleague came on stage, holding a mace to compete with Lu Qiaoxiao, it ended with her sword against the man's throat.
The whole place was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop or someone swallowing their saliva.
All I could hear was the petite, pretty girl in the arena speaking coldly, "You're using a mace to compete with my spear. The first step in choosing a weapon was a mistake."
"If you had chosen something lighter and more convenient, you would have already won."
Boss Gu stood aside with a very unhappy look on his face.
He now regretted his previous provocative words.
He should have thought of it earlier.
For a man like Shen Yuheng, could he possibly marry a beautiful woman who has nothing but good looks and figure?
The legitimate daughter of the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion in front of me is a girl who is said to be absurd and misbehaving by others.
She is clearly a female devil who can rival Shen Yuheng, who judges prisoners in prison.
Although none of the twenty people who had just competed with her could be considered top masters, several of them were reserve military officers with potential that had been spotted by their superiors.
He is proficient in body movements and martial arts.
But there were actually a few people who, under Lu Qiaoxiao's "guidance", could not last more than three moves.
Because of her flexible body, she can attack very quickly. Although she is not as strong as men, she is more flexible.
Each move and each style has formed a set of rules.
In addition, she has a deep understanding of weapons and knows how to use her advantages, so she can easily win in fights of the same level.
At this time, a doorman hurried over and whispered a few words in Boss Gu's ear: "Boss, Boss, Prime Minister Shen is here."
Boss Gu was startled. What was Chen Xiang doing here at this moment?
Are you going to use them as a target?
Who spread the news that he was making things difficult for the newly appointed Commander Lu?
Shen Yanluo came so quickly?
On the stage, Lu Qiaoxiao frowned slightly and looked at Boss Gu impatiently: "Next one, are you still going to fight?"
Boss Gu was frightened by these words and thought, my aunt must have lost her magical powers.
He quickly stepped forward with a pleading smile: "No more fighting, no more fighting. We have all experienced Commander Lu's magical powers."
"From now on, our Patrol Department will obey Commander Lu's orders and will have no second thoughts."
After hearing this, Lu Qiaoxiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After fighting against twenty people in a row, she was exhausted. If she continued to fight, she would probably show her weakness.
She was so arrogant today saying that she would fight against many enemies alone, in order to establish herself. In this way, in the future, even if the people in the patrol department were dissatisfied with her, a woman, managing these men, they would have to endure it.
"Chen Xiang!"
"Master Prime Minister!"
"Prime Minister Shen."
There was a sudden commotion in the crowd. Those who were originally sitting on the ground watching the show or resting against the wall suddenly stood up swiftly, their faces filled with fear as if they had seen the god of plague.
Those of them who work in the patrol department, how often do they see officials of the third rank or above?
What’s more, he is an important official in the court like Shen Yuheng?
Although I have never seen it, I have heard that some important criminals in the court, who were lucky enough to run into a case handled by Prime Minister Shen, had a stint in prison and were unrecognizable when they came out.
Therefore, Chen Xiang is known as the King of Hell.
Lu Qiaoxiao had just sat down in the awning where tea was set out when he heard a commotion behind him and looked over.
The turquoise official robe made his complexion look like jade. His pair of cold and indifferent eyes looked over at him, like the moon dipped in a cold spring, so beautiful that it seemed otherworldly.
Shen Yuheng's face was calm, and it was hard to tell what his emotions were.
Lu Qiaoxiao's heart was pounding. If she hadn't been too flamboyant in the Patrol Department, would someone have gone to Shen Yuheng to complain? Was she causing him trouble?
Her fierce brows drooped instantly. It was over. The good impression of gentleness, sophistication, dignity and generosity that she had left on Shen Yuheng since they met in this life was now completely gone.
The image she worked so hard to create—
Lu Qiaoxiao's heart was pounding violently in her chest as the man walked towards her step by step.
Until he stood in front of her, his eyes that were as sharp as fire swept across her face firmly.
"Commander Lu, I'm here to take you home."
