The moment the door closed, the masked man lightly jumped down from the ceiling, gently rubbed his right hand with broken bones, and let out a painful cry, "Hiss."

Ye Chen glanced at him and sat down silently.

"Much, thank you hero for saving your life."

The masked man took off his mask, revealing a middle-aged man's face, with slender eyebrows, high cheekbones, and slightly thin.

He tentatively asked: "Xia Mingyuan, don't you know the name of a hero?"

"You are the majestic Lord of Shangda City, but you don't even know this general?" Ye Chen said.

"General?" Ming Yuan stared at him for a while, then shook his head: "I don't know the general's name?"

Ye Chen shook his head, did not answer, but patted the opposite side of the table, signaling him to sit down.

Mingyuan walked to the table and sat down, still staring at Ye Chen's face, very puzzled.

Although Shangda City is thousands of miles away from the Royal City, Mingyuan is very clear about the affairs of the court, and he has a deep friendship with those generals who may be transferred to the southwest frontier.

But he had never seen the general in court.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and thought that there was a general he had never seen before—General Shangzhu Kingdom.

Because the general never went to court, and the lord of a small border town like him couldn't possibly have any intersection with the general, so naturally he had never seen it.

Could this be the Great General of Shangzhu Kingdom...

Thinking of this, Ming Yuan became more and more frightened, and took a closer look at Ye Chen's face, comparing his age, it seemed to be similar to the rumors.

"Now do you know who this general is?"

Ming Yuan asked nervously, "Big, big general?"

"Hmph!" Ye Chen snorted coldly.

Hearing this, Mingyuan immediately knelt down, "The general came to Shangda City, Mingyuan has offended you because of his blindness, please forgive me!"

Mingyuan didn't expect that he chose a corner room to sneak in, and unexpectedly ran into the majestic general of Shangzhu Kingdom.

No wonder he was subdued in just two or three strokes. Can his three-legged cat's kung fu be compared with the general's...

"Hmph, let me ask you, general, which inn in Shangda City has the thickest fodder?"

Ye Chen no longer planned to stay in Shangda City any longer, he wanted to find good fodder for the horses and let them chew slowly on the road.

Otherwise, if the identity is exposed here, I don't know how much trouble will be caused.

He believed that as long as Tie Zhengtian heard the news that he was coming to the southwest frontier, he would send someone to kill him regardless of anything.

There are no subordinates of the general in the southwestern frontier, and they will not keep their hands.

As for revealing his identity to Ming Yuan, it was because there was no way to do it. Under this arrogant claim, anyone with a little knowledge could guess his identity.

So I simply admitted it.

"The forage is the thickest?"

Mingyuan murmured and thought for a while, "Does the general want it?"

"You don't care what the general is going to do. If you ask me, you will answer the general. Don't you understand!"

Mingyuan wiped off his cold sweat, and thought to himself: It really is the general, his tone is exactly the same as the rumors, and others really can't imitate it.

"If the general wants to find high-quality fodder, he will naturally go to the city lord's mansion. The fodder in the city lord's mansion is specially provided by the southwest battalion, and it is specially provided for the cavalry!"

"That's just right, you are the owner of the city, get some fodder for this general, enough for three days! Also, prepare more dry food!"

The forage in three days is just enough to reach the foot of Panshan Mountain, and enough dry food must be prepared for the next hike.

Hearing this, Ming Yuan had a bitter expression on his face, "General, I told you just now, I, I was kicked out, and now the City Lord's Mansion is no longer in my hands."

"You trash! Who else can drive you, the city lord, out?"

Mingyuan wanted to cry, but he was already angry and wanted to refute, but because of the identity of the other party, he didn't dare to attack.

He explained with a sad face:

"Half a year ago we came to Shangda City with a wealthy businessman named Wang Shadi, who was in the horse business in the Central Plains. He came to me as soon as he came and said he would buy me as the city lord. The reason was that he wanted to try being a horseman. The taste of the emperor."

"Of course I can't agree. Buying an official with money is an act that is strictly prohibited. If caught, he will be beheaded. I immediately reassured him not to have such a big dream. At that time, he just thought that Unfortunately, there was no excess."

"However, a month ago, the city guards in charge of guarding the city suddenly rushed into the City Lord's Mansion and dealt with all my guards. I escaped desperately."

"I was very curious about why the city defense army suddenly turned back. I found out after inquiring that Wang Shadi became the city lord the night I escaped."

"Moreover, the subordinates who assisted me turned against the water collectively and turned to assist Wang Shadi. Later, I found out that Wang Shadi did not bribe my position at that time, so I asked my subordinates one by one and bought them into my account. , planning to take my position."

"After finally buying off the leader of the city defense army, he cooperated with the response from the city lord's mansion and led his troops to snatch my position."

Ye Chen snorted coldly, "So you were kicked out like a dead dog?"

Mingyuan didn't dare to refute, so he nodded helplessly.

"Just like that idiot Tie Zhengtian, every time this general enters the palace, he can be dragged off his seat like a dead dog."

Mingyuan was terrified when he heard this, and only the general dared to slander the ruler of the Dafeng Dynasty like this behind his back.

He argued: "The general's literary skills and martial arts strategy, people's will, being the lord of the country is inevitable, but Wang Shadi has no ability at all, only two stinky money!"

"In his eyes, everything can be bought with money. He buys officials, subordinates, houses, land, women, and even cities!"

Speaking of this, Mingyuan secretly glanced at Ye Chen, and continued: "And Wang Shadi also said that one day he will buy the general, the Dafeng Dynasty, and the entire continent!"

Bang!
Ye Chen slapped the wooden table angrily, "Arrogance!"

"It's really arrogant! A mere horse seller is so arrogant, has he ever put this general in his eyes?"

Ming Yuan tentatively said: "General, if you want to feed the grass, you may have to go to the City Lord's Mansion in person."

Ye Chen snorted coldly and asked, "If this general helps you deal with him, can your subordinates handle it?"

Naturally, it is impossible for him to swagger into the city lord's mansion to ask for fodder, not to mention revealing his identity, even if he reveals his identity, it is another matter whether this Wang Shadi, who bought the sky and land, sells it to save face.

Therefore, Ye Chen planned to deal with Wang Shadi.

On the one hand, judging from Wang Shadi's behavior, he is also an arrogant person.

Different from the great generals and Zhan Tie who are proud of their talents, Wang Shadi is proud of his wealth.

But essentially arrogant.

It is better to kill a hundred by mistake than to let one go. What if he is the Buddha of desire?
