On the way to the backyard, Xue Xiao asked Fu Li what he thought, and Fu Li pretended to be mysterious, but just nodded without saying a word, making Xue Xiao's curiosity extremely high.

"Brother Zhao, you can always talk now, right?" Xue Xiao couldn't wait to speak, wanting to know what Fu Li could do.

"Since we are afraid of being twisted into a single rope, then we will break them one by one. I guess most of the resettled refugees will cherish their current life. As for the rogues, they will be punished according to law." Fu Li said lightly.

"But after all, we are fellow villagers. If we act forcefully, it will cause riots among the refugees!" Xue Xiao expressed his worries after thinking about it.

"I don't know the pain until the fire burns on me. Since there is friction with the locals of Lingcheng, the people who are traveling with me will definitely suffer from it. The victim has to be found by you." Fu Li didn't feel that the refugees What turmoil will be caused, if it cannot be suppressed by force.It's just that he wouldn't say that to Xue Xiao.

Xue Xiao thought for a while, then got up and went to the door to look for the city guard.

He didn't go back to the house until the moon was in the middle of the sky. He wanted to talk to Fu Li, but he gave up when he saw that the lights in his room had been turned off.

Early the next morning, Fu Li got up early and left the Chengshou Mansion, heading straight to the largest restaurant in Mausoleum City.

"Brother, how many are you? What do you want to eat?" Seeing Fu Li walking in, Xiaoer greeted him enthusiastically.

"One, order some signature dishes. I want to clean up, please take me to the private room." Fu Li said casually.

Xiaoer shouted loudly for a private room, and then took Fu Li to a room facing the street on the second floor.

Fu Li sat down and opened the window.What catches the eye are vendors hawking along the street and a wide variety of commodities.

"Brother, it sounds like your accent is not from the local area, right?" Fu Li stopped the waiter who was delivering tea, and asked aloud.

"The guest officer has good ears. I am indeed not from this Lingcheng. It is just that there was a flood in my hometown and I fled all the way here. Fortunately, the local city guard was kind enough to take us in. That is why I can find a job here." Xiaoer recalled Fleeing life, his tone was a little low; but in the next moment, there was hope for life, thinking that the city guard did a good job.

"Oh, it seems that the city guard really loves the people like a child. It's a pity, the city guard..." Fu Li's tone paused, and he stopped talking.

"How is the city guard?" Xiao Eryi asked anxiously when he heard this, thinking that the warm-hearted city guard had committed something.

If the Lord City Guard is punished for taking in these refugees like them, they will feel uneasy. After all, the Lord City Guard gave them a new life.

"To tell you the truth, I heard that an imperial envoy came to the mausoleum recently. I heard that the city guard connived at the rogues among the refugees and disturbed the residents of the city. It's possible... Anyway, it's a pity, a pity." Fu Li's tone was full It's a pity.

When Xiaoer heard this, he wrote it down, and wanted to go back and ask his fellow countrymen if it was the work of Zhang Ergou and his gang, so he withdrew full of worries.

Looking at Xiao Er who was leaving, Fu Li held up the teacup to cover the upward curve of his mouth.I thought in my heart that I was not a liar, I just reversed the cause and effect, and as for what he speculated randomly, it had nothing to do with me.

After eating breakfast, Fu Li stopped the waiter and gave dozens of copper coins, and then left in a cool manner.

The guard of the city, at this time Xue Xiao just got up to wash up, and had breakfast under the service of Laifu.

"Brother Zhao, why did you leave the house so early in the morning?" Xue Xiao put down the silver chopsticks and looked at Fu Li who entered the house.

"I went to the restaurant to inquire about the situation." Fu Li sat down and said.

Then he told the truth about what he heard in the restaurant in the morning and what Xiaoer said.

Xue Xiao nodded repeatedly after hearing this, but still said something to Fu Li, telling him not to lie to others next time.

In the main hall, Xue Xiao was talking with Lord City Guard.

"Brother, can I go out with the city guard's daughter today?" Xue Qing's face was filled with excitement.

"Yes, but you have to bring your guards and enough money. Be careful." Xue Xiao pampered her nose, and then told He Xiu to follow Xue Qing closely.

Xue Qing got the answer, full of joy, and wanted to take a good look around Mausoleum City.He didn't care about He Xiu following him.

As soon as the sun turns, the sky is gradually occupied by colorful clouds, and the gentle wind blows away a little heat.

At this time, Xue Xiao, Fu Li and the city guard came out of the study. Because yesterday was too hasty, the city guard was going to hold a welcome banquet to welcome Xue Xiao and his party.

All the officials in the city were already waiting in the hall, and when they saw Xue Xiao coming, they saluted one after another, and after Xue Xiao received the salute, all the people sat down one after another.

"I didn't expect the county king to be so handsome, he could be a hero and a boy!" an official flattered him flatteringly.

Xue Xiao shook his head, humbly saying that he couldn't afford such a compliment, "My lords, please take your seats!"

The officials responded repeatedly, and as soon as they were seated, the servants of the city guard's mansion immediately brought food and drinks to the table.

The wine table culture cannot escape no matter where it is. After several glasses of wine toasted by officials, Xue Xiao got a little bit overwhelmed.

"Brother, sister Qing hasn't come back yet? Could something have happened?" Lai Fu whispered in Xue Xiao's ear.

"It must be fun, you send someone out to look for it." Xue Xiao thought that Xue Qing didn't return because she was too happy to leave, so she ordered Laifu to go out and look for it.

Laifu agreed, but he hasn't left yet.I saw the servants of the City Guard's Mansion hurried into the hall and said loudly: "Master, it's not good, something happened to my sister and the princess."

Hearing this, Xue Xiao's mind suddenly became clear, and he stood up in a panic, and the chair fell to the ground with a bang.

The originally noisy sound was instantly silent, as if a needle could be heard falling on the ground.

"Quickly tell me, what happened?" Xue Xiao quickly walked up to the servant, grabbed his skirt and asked angrily.

"Only, it's just that they were attacked on the road, and the criminals have been taken down." The servant was frightened by Xue Xiao's aura, and replied tremblingly for a while.

Xue Xiao let go of his hand and walked towards the main hall with strides. The officials behind him also put down their wine glasses and followed, wanting to see who was so bold and dared to break ground on Tai Sui.

"Sister Qing, is there something wrong?" Xue Xiao looked at Xue Qing who was still in shock, and asked in a panic.He looked around her body, trying to see if there were any wounds.

"Brother, I'm fine. It's just that the city guard's daughter was frightened and sprained her foot." Xue Qing patted Xue Xiao's hand and comforted her.

"It's fine, it's fine, it's fine." Xue Xiao's heart sank a little, and he ordered the maid to take Sister Qing back, and asked the accompanying medical officer to visit Chengshou Qianjin's foot injury.

Watching Xue Qing leave, Xue Xiao's complexion suddenly darkened, watching the gangster who was kneeling on the ground kick him over.

Everyone watched this scene, but no one stepped forward to dissuade them.

Xue Xiao's anger did not dissipate, and he stared at He Xiu with a pair of beautiful eyes, "I didn't ask you to protect the princess, why did you still get attacked?" His tone was gloomy.

He Xiu knelt down on one knee, with a guilty look on her face: "It's my subordinate's dereliction of duty, please punish the county king."

"Remember it first, and deal with it after returning to Yongdu. And explain the situation at that time." Xue Xiao didn't want to get too entangled in punishment at this time, so he ordered He Xiu to report the whole story.

He Xiu explained the cause of the matter clearly, without hiding anything.

Time back to You.

In the restaurant, Xue Qing was dining with the city guard's daughter, and when she heard that there was a lantern show by the river, she wanted to go and see it on a whim.

"Sister Wan, let's go see the lanterns later. I want to see how the lanterns here are different from those in Yongdu?" Xue Qing blinked Kazilan's big eyes and looked at the young woman named Sister Wan.

Originally, he was ordered by his father to accompany Xue Qing out to play, but after spending half a day with her, Sister Wan was already familiar with Xue Qing, and her daughter likes to play, so she nodded in agreement.

The banks of the Linghe River have been colorfully decorated with lanterns of various shapes, and the soft light is reflected on the river, sparkling like stars in the sky.

"Sister Wan, I thought this mausoleum was not as prosperous as Yongdu, but I didn't expect it to have a special charm." Xue Xiao said with emotion, holding Sister Wan's arm in one hand and a lotus lantern in the other.

"It's because you stayed here for a short time. For me, I think Yongdu has more interesting things than Mausoleum City, and the scenery is better than Mausoleum City." Sister Wan shook her head and retorted softly.

The two beautiful people walked side by side on the street, attracting people around to peep at them frequently, and whispering, wondering which family is so lucky to have such a beautiful daughter.

Some people appreciate it, while others miss it and try to defile it.

"You two beauties, where are you going?" No, there was a man who thought he was handsome but was actually wretched standing in front of him.

"What does it have to do with you? Don't get out of the way!" The maid yelled loudly.

"Get out of the way." The man pushed the maid to the ground with a big wave of his hand, and tried to touch Xue Qing's face with one hand.

"Go away, get your dirty hands away." Sister Wan's maid slapped the man's hand away and stood in front of the two of them.

"You count that onion? Dare to stand in the way of the young master." The man also pushed Sister Wan and the maid to the ground with a wave.

"If you dare to come here, take care of your life." Xue Qing said sternly, not afraid of the man.

"Hey, you have a personality. I like my young master. Brothers, grab these two chicks and have a good night!" The man said with a wicked smile.

"Look, what is that?" Xue Qing pointed at the wretched man.

That man was probably brainless, and was fooled by Xue Qing. When he turned his head to look, Xue Qing had already dragged Miss Wan away, still calling He Xiu's name.

"Catch me, brothers." Realizing that he had been tricked, the man yelled angrily.

With a cry, Miss Wan fell to the ground, unable to move.Seeing the man getting closer, Xue Qing panicked.

Fortunately, He Xiu appeared in time, with extraordinary skills, she knocked several men to the ground in a few strokes.With a wave of his hand, the guards behind him stepped forward to escort him away.

After this incident, Xue Qing was no longer in the mood to have fun, and in addition, sister Wan twisted her foot, and the group returned home.

When they arrived at the city guard's mansion, the guards guarding the gate saw that Sister Wan's and Sister Qing's temple hair was slightly disheveled, and also saw that Sister Wan's walking posture was not right, so they hurriedly reported it, leading to the matter above.
