Chapter 26: City Gate or Chiyu?

The street was silent for a moment, and everyone stared at Feng Yi holding the hilt of the knife nervously.

The third uncle had no sign of fear at all. He was still the old god twisting his beard with his hands, as if Feng Yi was holding a knife but a piece of tofu. However, when the old mayor shouted "Wait a minute", he frowned and stopped twisting his beard. He seemed to hear the voice of his nephew Li Mu.

But when he turned back and looked back a few times, he only saw the crowds of people on the streets, like chickens strangled their throats, and they were just stretched their necks and opened their mouths to stare ahead. The expressions on his face were even more diverse, including anxious, angry, pity, and indifferent. Of course, the most part was to watch the fun with curiosity.

Just as the third uncle turned around, the crowd on the other side suddenly became turbulent, and then a young black-armored soldier squeezed out, shouting "Wait a minute", but it made the old mayor and the third uncle stunned for a moment, and their faces changed slightly, and then they returned to normal.

They naturally could see at a glance that the young soldier was Han Yong, the son of Han Dagui, Lianshan Town.

At this time, Feng Yi's expression gradually calmed down. He no longer stared at his third uncle. Instead, he turned his head and asked the old mayor to speak calmly, which made Han Yong and Li Mu confused.

The old mayor glanced at Han Yong from the corner of his eyes, then turned around and shouted to the third uncle and other old men, "Li Lao San, why are you old people jumping out to join in the fun? Are you talking to the nobles? Do you know if you wait for the grass-roots to hinder military affairs is equivalent to rebellion? Don't you retreat."

The third uncle and his wife seemed to want to say something. Originally, they had agreed that it seemed that it was not just these, but seeing that the old town mayor even took down the big hat of "rebellion", it was probably because the boy from the Han family jumped out and destroyed the plan of several people. In desperation, he had to retreat back to the crowd with a look of disappointment.

Li Mu quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and shrank half of his body that had stretched out of the corner of the wall. He looked at the thoughtful third uncle with some anxiety in his heart, praying that his ears that were already in his ears would not work so well. If he came over to pull himself out in person, it would be a disaster.

Feng Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes in secret. This old thing was really hard to deal with. He first held him with a word. If he really dared to arrest the old men behind him with hindering military affairs, he would definitely turn against him and say that he was a fish and a commoner. After all, this crime is very useful in the case of someone in the court. Haven't he heard from the sages that the people are the most important, and the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important.

"Fishing the people" and "fighting for profit with the people" seem to be doing these acts of power and wealth every day, but they are all covered and understood by everyone. If they are too ugly and caught, they will at least be morally disadvantaged. At that time, a group of idle censors will attack them, and it will not be easy for anyone to do it.

Although Li Mu barely understood the meaning of the third uncle's words, when he saw Feng Yi's face turned pale, he was still shocked and shouted without thinking, wanting to jump out and admit that he was the person he was looking for, so that he could save the lives of the third uncle and several elders.

As for whether he is born or died, he can only leave it to fate.

Finally, when he saw the old mayor also asked Feng Junhou to suspend the acquisition of people, Li Mu immediately knew that he and Han Yong were a little reckless. When these old foxes gathered together to chat, they spoke in a foggy way. They had already had a tacit understanding between them. How could they anger a family so simply and rudely? It was just to tell the other party toughly that our old men are not vegetarians, and they would explain their interests to you first. The next step is naturally to bargain, and see how everyone can come up with a plan that everyone is satisfied with.

Feng Yi's eyes were still fierce, but his heart was extremely depressed. Facing a few old things, he always felt like a wolf facing a few old foxes. Although the wolf could easily tear a few old foxes apart, don't forget that behind these old foxes there was a group of hyenas who wanted to bite people all day long. Don't fight with the old foxes happily here. The hyenas there had surrounded themselves and were about to rush up and take a few bites.

The most important thing is that he found out that he seemed to have said the wrong thing just now. He originally said that he could not read a big word, which was a trick, but unexpectedly, he was grabbed by a few old foxes. Although the old fox who hid back to the crowd was a bit ugly, the truth was still correct. After all, "Chu Lu" represents the majesty of the court, and it was really inappropriate to use the general order of the general to fight against him.

Therefore, Feng Yi was just stunned when he heard the sarcasm of his third uncle and wanted to order to get someone. When he heard a few voices shouting "Wait a minute", he immediately calmed himself down and instantly understood the interests. However, he had not found a suitable step yet, so he could only continue to have a gloomy face and refuse to give up.

After the third uncle and his wife retreated to the crowd, the old mayor also showed a hint of undetectable relaxation on his face, and turned to the townsmen behind him and shouted: "Everyone should go back first, don't watch the fun here, are you not doing business anymore? Don't worry, as long as I am here, you will definitely not suffer any losses."

Feng Yi's expression gradually returned to normal. He looked at the villagers of Lianshan Town without saying a word. Under the leadership of several old men, only those businessmen who were eager to leave the town were still gathered on the street. The crowds in the street seemed to have been combed with combs, and it suddenly became much thinner.

"Are you Xiaoyong? I haven't seen you for several years, but I didn't expect you to be so strong and mighty." The old mayor and others dispersed, and suddenly turned to Han Yong, who was at a loss in the street, and said, "If you have time at night, come to my house to sit down. My unscrupulous granddaughter is still thinking about you."

Han Yong couldn't help but blush and was about to bow and retreat, but he heard Feng Yi say in a deep voice: "Slowly, Han Yong, you just disobeyed the military order, but you dared to make a sound to stop the Marquis of the Army from ordering people, but what's the reason?"

The old mayor couldn't help but look at the face of the old town mayor. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to support Han Yong and erase the small mistake he had just made. He also pointed out the relationship between Han Yong and himself, but he didn't know why Feng Yi was still holding on? Judging from the other party's performance just now, this aristocratic family is probably not a good person. He is good at analyzing various interests, so he should not want to use such things to bargain with him.

Han Yong's face also changed, and he realized that the situation was a bit serious. Although such a thing could be big or small, how to deal with it depends entirely on his boss's personality and mood. However, looking at Feng Yi's face that was so gloomy that he was about to twist out of water, he understood that he had to come up with a few steps ahead of Feng Yi, otherwise this level would not be better.

Just when Han Yong took the last step and still couldn't figure out a solution, another shrill eagle roar sounded, and a mysterious and agile figure of golden jade appeared in the sky again, shuttled through the clouds like a bow and arrow.

Suddenly, Han Yong's face relaxed, as if he had thought of something, and stepped forward and whispered to Feng Yi: "Mr. Jun. Marquis, my subordinates have absolutely no intention to disobey the military order. I just suddenly thought of something, and in a hurry, I had to stop it. I hope Jun. Marquis first listened to his subordinates' explanation of their original intention and then marched to the military law. If Jun. Marquis still thinks that his subordinates are inappropriate, his subordinates will never complain."

"Oh, what can you think of, you, a rough man?" Feng Yi raised his eyebrows, and his originally gloomy face suddenly became bright and bright, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes and said, "Since that's the case, what's the point? But if you can't say a word, don't blame me for disregarding the friendship of brothers in the army."

At this time, a strange look appeared on the old mayor's face. Just as he was about to speak, Han Yong leaned into Feng Yi's ear and whispered: "Mr. Jun. I believe you have seen the golden jade in the air, right? I'm from Lianshan Town, so I naturally know that the old mayor had been recommended by many censors in the past and had the best relationship with one of the censors surnamed Guo. Look..."

"You mean, the censor surnamed Guo... Could it be the elder who is 'Guo's shameless'?" Feng Yi immediately reacted, his face changed again, his eyes flashed with no idea what he was thinking, but he said in a lower voice.

Han Yong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, did not dare to stare at his boss immediately, and lowered his head and said respectfully: "I'm afraid that's the case."

Feng Yi walked back and forth with a few steps in pondering, then suddenly looked up and smiled at the old mayor, "Mayor Zhao, you see, I am really confused by my junior. You are so old that you forget to ask you to sit down first. If you make you tired of something, those guys in the court will tear me apart and write memorials."

"The noble man is so serious. My old bone is not so decayed." Although the old mayor did not understand why the young military marquis suddenly changed his attitude, he was sure that the other party had a request for him now, so he said with a kind look, "It's just that the noble man comes from the prosperous place of the capital, so he naturally doesn't understand the sufferings of the people in our small places..."

As the old mayor said, shook his head and sighed and pointed to the donkey carriage driver who was still squatting on the ground, and then said, "This carriage of cabbage is naturally not worth mentioning in the eyes of noble people, but it is probably the hard work of this coachman for several months and the expenses of one month at home. Now that he is suffering from a fish disaster in the pond, how can the noble people bear it?"

After hearing the old mayor's words, Li Mu suddenly felt a little puzzled. He was obviously a little fish in the moat, but when the old mayor said this, he turned into a city gate? Could it be that just like the stage, when he was with different people, would the role he played would change?

Feng Yi nodded naturally and said according to the old mayor's wishes: "Mayor Zhao is right. It's all because these rough men in the army don't know how to be polite to the people. The younger generation just took a nap on the chair. They actually caused a whole truck of cabbage. It's too bad. Please forgive me for their dedication to the country."

"Your uncle, is this okay? I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen such shameless people." Li Mu couldn't help but curse in a low voice in the corner. The black-armored soldier just now stepped on the cabbage, which was obviously the order given by this Feng Junhou. Now he has pushed him completely, as if he has become a good person who is extremely sympathetic to the people.

However, several soldiers, including Han Yong, were silent after hearing this, and seemed to be commonplace with this kind of thing. The old mayor even stroked his snow-white beard and nodded and said, "So that's it. It seems that we are really misunderstood the nobles. But the cabbage has been trampled to pieces, and we cannot ignore it, if so..."

"This is easy to deal with. I will naturally have the responsibility of my boss, so I will buy this cart of cabbage." Feng Junhou said very readily, as if he was really a good person. "Master Zhao, don't worry, all the goods inspected below can be handled according to this example. Anyone who is accidentally destroyed will be compensated by this Junhou."

After saying that, Feng Yi said to Han Yong again: "Han Yong, please help the old town mayor to sit down."

"No need, I can trust the nobles, so I don't have to watch here anymore. Let's go back first." The old mayor smiled and stopped Han Yong from coming forward to support him. Seeing this, the middle-aged man behind him who had been standing and not leaving immediately stepped forward to support the old mayor, and the two of them slowly walked back along the street.

Although the vendors along the way did not make any sounds under the pressure of the Tiger Wingguard, they all looked at the old mayor with admiration and gratitude. Li Mu couldn't help but feel a little dazed. The old mayor was almost powerless. Why do people look at him now, but there are some stories told by Mr. Xilou, the villagers of Taiping Town looked at Gao Dasha in the stories told by Mr. Xilou.

"Don't heroes all have unique skills to eliminate violence and good fortune? But if they don't have peerless martial arts, how can they eliminate violence and good fortune?" Li Mu shrank inward again and fell into deep thought.

The old mayor did not pay attention to the gaze of the vendors, but instead looked at the middle-aged man beside him with a little lonely look. Looking at his slightly honest face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and disappeared in the corner of an alley with some staggering steps.

Feng Yi looked at the old mayor disappearing from sight with a smile, and his face became extremely gloomy again. He pondered for a moment: "Han Yong, you did a good job. If you didn't remind me, I would have really had a relationship with these old men... Well, if these old people had a falling out, they would be caught by 'Guo Wuwei', and then it would be really hard to step down at that time."

After saying that, he patted Han Yong on the shoulder hard, as if he was expressing his value to him, and then said, "But we were a little anxious this time and didn't bring any money. I thought it wouldn't be so troublesome..."

Feng Yi stopped again when he said this, but Han Yong did not dare to answer the conversation. He did not feel any smugness in his heart. Instead, he felt a little bad. With his understanding of this boss, such intentional good deeds must be hidden behind some problems that he could not have imagined.
