Zuo Feng frowned and stared at the crooked soldier who suddenly appeared. His cunning and greed could be seen from his appearance. His outfit should also be at the level of the deputy captain.

‘Is it because I want to cause trouble and then ask for some benefits?’ Thinking of this in my heart, Zuo Feng stood there quietly, and used his eyes to signal Zuo Houchendie and others around him not to move.

This ugly "villain" is actually called "Crooked Mouth". I don't know if his name is like this or his companions gave him such an appropriate nickname.

The crooked mouth smiled sinisterly, walked to the captain, leaned over and whispered in a low voice. As he spoke, he occasionally pointed at the people in Zuojia Village, and sometimes made a few strange laughs like ducks.

"Brother, where are we?" A sweet voice sounded beside Zuo Feng.

A familiar voice immediately interrupted his thoughts, turned around and smiled, and said, "Girl, we are at the gate of Yancheng. You can go back and sleep for a while."

"I won't sleep anymore. When did you come? A group of bad guys came last night, but then they drove the bad guys away with fireworks and archers."

After hearing this, Zuo Feng smiled helplessly. His sister was still childish. She said so thrillingly last night, like a child fighting in her mouth.

"Listen, our captain only mentioned the general rules for entering the city before. With so many of you, you naturally have to pay more."

Zuo Feng was attracted by the voice of his speech and saw that the speaker was the soldier named "Crooked Mouth". The third elder quickly took a few steps forward and said respectfully: "I wonder how much more we people will pay?"

"Add ten gold coins will be collected for more than fifty people, and five gold coins will be collected for more than one hundred people, and the package needs to be opened for inspection."

As soon as the crooked mouth sounded, shock and dissatisfaction came from the crowd. This regulation was obviously too harsh. How can a team of fifty people carry a tribute without a mule and horse? More than a hundred people need ten gold coins. You should know that each of them normally only needs to pay fifteen copper coins, and everyone adds up to only ** silver coins.

Zuo Feng frowned deeply, "The fee for entering the city is ridiculously high, and he also has to open the package to check one by one. This is obviously a humiliating sense. He wanted to force everyone to leave, or hope that everyone would be satisfied if they had conflicts with the soldiers here. Then the sinister intentions of this person are not as simple as just making things difficult for everyone to make more oil and water." Seeing some young people in the village, they were getting more and more angry, and the smell of gunpowder became stronger and stronger. The crooked soldier hid aside and laughed secretly when he saw this scene, and Zuo Feng said loudly.

"Five elders, it's better for us to retreat the team for a while and then negotiate with them slowly, so as not to temporarily be unable to enter the city and hinder the order of the city gate."

Zuo Feng's voice was not loud, but the people in the village immediately calmed down. Most people knew that Zuo Feng helped them overcome the difficulties last night. So although everyone didn't understand his words now, no one raised any questions.

"Pretending to behave, I really thought that after the battle last night, I would become the village chief."

Teng Fang's disharmonious voice came from afar. Zuo Feng ignored the man's words and turned to the fifth elder to show an inquiring look.

The fifth elder thought about it for a moment with a difficult face, and sighed and said, "At present, this is the only timely thing. Let's step back and give up the passage of the city gate."

"Since you are not going to enter the city, don't stay in the Yancheng Plain."

Seeing that his purpose had not been achieved, the crooked mouth first glared at Zuo Feng in the crowd, and then immediately spoke loudly. His words made the other soldiers feel disgusted. This was obviously a bit bullying, but due to his identity and background, he didn't dare to do anything else.

At this moment, the people in Zuojia Village were really angry. If they were asked to withdraw from the plains outside Yancheng, those bandits would attack them at any time, which would be the same as sending their necks to the enemy's blade.

Seeing the crooked mouth, Zuo Feng's anger ignited. The surrounding villagers were like torches thrown into turbulent oil. The soldiers also raised their weapons when they saw this, and the conflict was about to break out.

Now even if Zuo Feng wants to calm everyone down, he can no longer control such a situation.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way. What kind of style is it to block the city gate here. The young lady is going to go out of the city to hunt, so get out of the way quickly. Are you all dead city guards?"

A loud shout suddenly sounded inside the city gate, and then a dense sound of horse hooves covered the noise of the crowd. Zuo Feng saw that the crooked mouth turned extremely ugly at this moment, and knew that this might be their turn, so he immediately said loudly.

"Everyone, calm down."

Without waiting for Zuo Feng to speak again, the crooked mouth spoke first.

"Didn't you hear that the young lady is going to leave the city. You idle people are waiting, but you can't quickly get out of the city gate passage, get out quickly, get out quickly."

"What do these people do? What do you do?"

A woman's voice sounded inside the city gate, and the words behind were obviously what the city guards said. With her voice, a tall and white horse slowly walked out of the city. An extremely beautiful woman in a luxurious cloak was sitting upright. The woman was about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Her tall cloudy temples were combed above her head, and her round face and fair skin were like an egg peeled off. Her big eyes were as clear as a deep pool, and her vermilion-red mouth was very delicate under her erect nose. A light yellow cloak with a samurai outfit showed her slightly plump figure, and she had a more heroic beauty.

Seeing this woman, all the soldiers bowed and the soldier leader did not forget to glar at that "crooked mouth".

Then he spoke, "These people are from Zuojia Village, Tianping Mountains, and they want to enter the city here."

The crooked face changed several times, but he still rushed to say, "They can't pay for entering and leaving the city, we are about to drive them away."

"Oh, that's it. Then I'll be entangled here and drive them away happily. Can't you do this little thing?"

The beautiful woman said casually impatiently after hearing the crooked words.

Zuo Feng knew that everyone would fall on the woman if they wanted to enter the city, so he didn't care about the fifth elder who was already a little stunned at this time, and immediately spoke.

"This young lady, we are not unable to afford to enter the city. But the soldier said that more than ten people have mules, horses and animals, and more than ten people have five gold coins, and more than one hundred people have to open a bag to check. We have never heard of this regulation in Yancheng before, so we stay here."

Zuo Feng said and pointed at the crooked mouth. Although his voice was not loud, both sides could hear it softly.

"Oh, that's the case. Is it strange that Yancheng has new regulations and my daughter, the city lord's daughter, still doesn't know it?"

The beautiful girl seemed to be joking, but her expression gradually became colder.

The crooked face was red and white. She glared at Zuo Feng viciously, and then answered awkwardly.

"Miss, I think there are too many people in this group, and I'm afraid it's not good for Yancheng. That's why I..."

"Hmph, you, a small deputy captain of the city guard, dare to make rules without authorization. It seems that you want to be the city lord of Yancheng."

Hearing the eldest lady's words, he knelt down as soon as his mouth and legs were weak. He knew the eldest lady's temper, and if he was not good, he might be severely punished.

"That's great, so good, finally someone can deal with this evil man."

A sweet voice sounded behind Zuo Feng, and Zuo Tiantian, who was talking about Zuo Feng's sister.

The woman, known as the eldest lady, looked at Zuo Feng with curious search sound. When she saw a small head exposed from behind Zuo Feng, her eyes lit up slightly, she turned off her horse and walked towards Zuo Feng quickly.

He said to himself: "What a beautiful little girl, come and let my sister take a closer look."

This strange scene made everyone stand on the spot, and only the followers who followed the young lady showed a strange look.

"Sister, you are also very beautiful, and you are so kind and righteous. Those evil people are afraid of you."

Zuo Tiantian was not afraid of anything. He raised his little hand and pointed at the crooked mouth in the distance, bared his little teeth and said with a smile.

This sentence immediately made the girl's followers twitch, obviously very disagreeing with Zuo Tiantian's words.

The scene in front of me made everyone, including Zuo Feng, feel very strange. A beautiful girl in noble clothes held a little girl in her arms regardless of her demeanor, pressed and pinched her face, and finally couldn't help but kissed each other hard on her face.

Zuo Feng couldn't stand it at this time, and coughed slightly from the side and said.

"I wonder if this guy, ah, Miss, can we enter the city."

"Yeah, go and go and go to the city."

Even though he said so, he had no intention of letting go of Zuo Tiantian.

Just at this moment, the discordant voice sounded again from afar and conveyed "Miss, such a large group of people..."

"You bastard dares to speak out to me. You have been so smart and beautiful little girl who has been standing under this poisonous sun for so long. Uncle Tian hung this hateful guy on the city gate and hung me for three days and three nights."

This beautiful girl is very beautiful and her voice is very beautiful. But as soon as she said this, not only was her crooked mouth so scared that she sat on the ground, but even the people in Zuojia Village felt a little furious.

"The eldest lady is really a clear reward and punishment, which makes people admire her. I dare to ask what the eldest lady is called."

At this moment, Tengfang slowly stepped out of the team in Zuojia Village, bowed forward and said.

Just after the young lady appeared, Fuji Fang's eyes were never pulled out again, and it was not until now that he finally found the opportunity to speak. Fuji Fang's appearance was also quite handsome, but the young lady just glanced at him casually and said impatiently.

"What are you? Why should I tell you my name?"

Teng Fang's face turned red, and it was impossible to tell whether he was embarrassed or something. But his face was really thick and he said without any anger: "I'm here in Zuojia Village, the leader of the young group. My name."

"What a young group, the leader. My name is not interested in me. Don't bother me here."
