I have been a county magistrate for ten years. My subordinates insist on giving me a yellow robe.

Before I knew it, half a month had passed.

Taiping Lottery still had no intention of opening. Jiang Yuan spent the entire day leisurely drinking tea and basking in the sun in the store, showing no sign of panic at all.

"Sir, aren't you anxious?" Li Hu looked at Jiang Yuan helplessly.

It has been half a month. Not to mention whether there will be enemies coming to visit, just not being open for business for half a month, what kind of business is this?

Jiang Yuan lazily turned his head and glanced at Li Hu: "What's the rush? What's the rush? Whether it's flyers or anything else, all preparations are done. We can open the business anytime we want."

"But sir, are you sure we can still open the business?" Li Hu curled his lips.

Everyone has been busy during this period and has already found out Long Aotian's background. He is the youngest son of Long Guangxian, the general of Caiyun City, and he has two older brothers who followed Ning Fei to resist Nanliang.

It is definitely a family of military generals, and it is said that Long Aotian’s two elder brothers have the same official positions as Long Guangxian. It is no exaggeration to say that they are the best of the best.

Long Guangxian was extremely domineering in Caiyun City. Relying on his military achievements in his early years, even the governor of the prefecture had to give him some respect.

Jiang Yuan first beat the other person's son and then beat his deputy. Is this justifiable?

Jiang Yuan slowly picked up the teacup and took a sip. After yawning, he said calmly, "We can definitely open the business, but we have to wait for the general to come."

"You're waiting for them to come? Are you sure we won't be thrown into jail by then?" Li Hu was still a little skeptical.

Although Jiang Yuan was conferred the title of Baron, any discerning person could see that it was completely false, and it was likely that the title had not even been spread.

Otherwise, why has Tian Wen from Luoyun City disappeared for such a long time?

There were no congratulations from either of them, so it was obviously of no value.

There is no way he can be compared with Long Guangxian, a fifth-rank military general who holds military power. It is hard to say whether the other party will give him face.

Jiang Yuan was about to speak when Wang Gang, who was sitting on the threshold, suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice, "Master, someone is here. He looks like a high-ranking official."

"Huh! It's finally here!"

Jiang Yuan excitedly sat up from his chair, stretched himself, and then waved to Li Hu and the others.

"Okay, now that we've solved this problem, our Taiping Lottery can open smoothly."

As he spoke, Jiang Yuan walked quickly to the door. On both sides of the street, Long Guangxian, dressed in a long robe, was sitting upright on an open-air sedan chair, followed by nearly a hundred black-armored soldiers who were slowly approaching.

On the other side, Wang Kuo, with a grim expression, led two or three hundred people towards them.

People on both sides of the street had already realized that the situation was not good and closed their doors, looking at Jiang Yuan and others across the street through the second-floor windows.

Not long after, the carriage stopped opposite Jiangyuan. Long Guangxian stood up from the carriage with a gloomy face. Damn it, after nearly twenty days, Heijia hadn't found out the whereabouts of these people at all.

Long Guangxian even thought that it might be an alias, but after twenty days, his son was beaten. If he, as a father, did not come out, wouldn’t he be laughed at by the people of Caiyun City?

It was reasonable and logical for Long Guangxian to come over, even if it was just for the sake of face. Even if this guy was someone he couldn't afford to offend, he had to come over and ask clearly, otherwise where would he put his face?

The news of Long Aotian and Wang Kuo being beaten had already spread throughout Caiyun City. Some people even set up betting games, betting on when Long Guangxian would come for revenge and who would have the last laugh.

"You guys are much later than I expected." Jiang Yuan looked at Long Guangxian with a faint smile. There was no hatred in his eyes, but rather a look of expectation.

Long Guangxian didn't hesitate and walked directly to Jiang Yuan, saying in a deep voice, "Who are you? Let's draw a line."

Jiang Yuan bowed and said calmly, "I am Jiang Yuan."

"Jiang?" Long Guangxian was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What is your relationship with Jiang Wanli?"

Jiang Yuan curled his lips. He had heard of the name Jiang Wanli, a big shot in the Ministry of War. Jiang Yuan was eager to have something to do with him.

After all, when he was imprisoned in the city defense prison, all it took was a few words from this big guy to release him, whether Xue Zhen was willing or not.

"It doesn't matter."

Long Guangxian frowned. It doesn’t matter?

However, there are only a few people with the surname Jiang in the court whose official rank is higher than his, and the only one who can be directly related to him is a big shot like Jiang Wanli.

Thinking of this, Long Guangxian immediately spoke again: "Jiang Bie Li, Jiang Ye, Jiang..."

"and many more!"

Before Long Guangxian could finish his words, he was interrupted by Jiang Yuan. Jiang Yuan looked at Long Guangxian with a headache.

"So after all these days of investigation, this is all you found?"

"Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you. I don't know any of those guys you mentioned, and you don't have to worry about me having any backers. In our family, I'm the most powerful official."

Jiang Yuan thought for a moment and added, "Don't worry, it won't be bigger than you."

This is the truth. Jiang Yuan is a baron, which only corresponds to the fifth rank, but Long Guangxian is a real fifth rank military general with real power.

Long Guangxian had an expression of confusion on his face. No, buddy, are you kidding me?

Since you know that your official rank is not as high as mine and you don’t have a strong backing, how dare you hit my son?

Just because of the yellow jacket you are wearing?

Then I can only say that you are too naive!

"Good, very good, really good, hehe!" Long Guangxian smiled coldly and clenched his fists.

"Are you ready to die then?"

Jiang Yuan took a step back and stretched out a hand to stop him, saying, "Wait a minute, I have something else to say."

Long Guangxian looked at him with disdain: "Is it that yellow jacket? Come on, put it on and show me. I want to see when you were awarded this yellow jacket!"

During these fifteen days, Long Guangxian certainly found out nothing. At least, he knew all the people who were awarded yellow jackets in Daduan over the years.

There is no one with the surname Jiang among them. There are only a few people with the surname Jiang in the whole Yunzhou, and this guy is not among them at all.

If there is any problem with this guy's yellow jacket, Long Guangxian would dare to kill people in the street openly.

"Okay, since you want to see it, I'll show it to you." Jiang Yuan took off his robe nonchalantly, revealing the yellow jacket he was wearing underneath.

In an instant, Long Guangxian's pupils shrank. It was definitely the real thing.

So the question is, what is this person's identity? He is not among those who are awarded yellow jackets by the current emperor.

This seems a bit weird.

Since it was not recorded, where did this man’s yellow jacket come from?

Could it be that the emperor bestowed it upon himself and did not announce it to the public?

Then this person's identity becomes even more confusing.
