The city lord's mansion is located in the middle of the small town, with a muddy street leading directly to the door. This is a small courtyard, and it seems that it is probably the only house in Xingye City with bluestone structure.

"Please wait, the younger one will go in and report." Walking outside the courtyard, Forrest Gump said, "I went to Xiao Tianci with his body."

"Yeah, go." Xiao Tianci waved.

"Yes, sir."

Soon, Xiao Tianci saw the old man hurried out with three middle-aged men. The leader was Xiao Changlong, the current lord of Xingye City.

Xiao Changlong is dressed as a literary man and is very tall, and is somewhat similar to Xiao Changhu, the captain of the cavalry of the personal guard. These two are brothers, both literary and military, and were once the close friends of Mr. Xiao.

The two people behind Xiao Changlong were one with a long sword on his waist, a fat face, and a burly figure, while the other was sharp-mouthed and short.

The three of them walked to Xiao Tianci, one after another, and bowed, "I've seen the second young master."

Xiao Tianci looked at the three of them calmly, then raised his hand and said, "Yeah, no gift."

"Second Master, your itinerary is fast enough. It's only a few days before I'm ready for the delivery." Xiao Changlong smiled, but there was no respect in his tone.

"Haha, a little surprised? I didn't expect that I could still live to Xingye City, right?" Xiao Tianci laughed and said deliberately.

Hearing his words, Xiao Changlong's face changed, "Second Master, I wonder what you mean?"

"Hehe, don't understand? Then forget it." Xiao Tianci sneered twice, "By the way, why don't you introduce the two people behind you?"

"Ha, Second Young Master, look at me." Xiao Changlong slapped his head and pointed to the man with a knife and introduced, "Second Young Master, this is the Sheriff of Xingye City, Wei Biao, who is responsible for the criminal and public security of the entire Xingye City and surrounding villages and towns."

After saying that, he pointed to the pointed-mouthed man and said, "This is the literary and historical figure of Xingye City. Zhang Jingting is responsible for assisting the city lord in handling various government affairs."

"I've seen the second young master." The two introduced came up again to salute, but Wei Biao said indifferently to Xiao Tianci, the new city lord, didn't seem to be very fond of it. Zhang Jingting, who was ugly, had two small mice's eyes turned quickly, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Yeah, lucky to know." Xiao Tianci nodded to the two of them, looked around and said, "Why, why is the guards of Xingye City not here?"

"This..." Xiao Changlong hesitated for a moment, "Second Young Master, you have worked hard all the way. The young man has already ordered his servants to prepare food and drinks. He also asked the Second Young Master to move to the backyard. As for the garrison Lin Chong, I will explain in detail to the Second Young Master later, how about it?"

"Okay, I'm a little hungry." Xiao Tianci nodded and got off his horse.

"Everyone dismounts and follow me into the mansion." Zhang Liao and Jia Xu also dismounted.

Looking at the crowd of people, Xiao Changlong was embarrassed and said, "Second Young Master, the city lord's mansion is simple, it seems that there are so many people. How about asking the Second Major Generals and soldiers to arrange them to the garrison camp?"

Xiao Tianci thought for a while, "Okay, you send someone to take them to the military camp, remember to take care of me with delicious food and drinks."

"Thank you for your understanding, I will make arrangements now." Xiao Changlong nodded repeatedly, and at the same time waved to call Uncle Forrest Gump over and gave him a few instructions.

Xiao Tianci never expected that Xiao Changlong was such a stylish person. Although the entire city lord's mansion was not big or even a little simple, it had a large garden with pavilions and towers and dense flowers and plants. It was a rare place.

"Old Xiao, your garden is good." Xiao Tianci laughed, "I didn't expect that such an elegant garden could be seen in this remote small town. It's rare, rare."

Xiao Changlong's face turned dark and seemed a little dissatisfied with Xiao Tianci's title, but he still bowed, "The second young master is too famous, and his leisure work is unattractive."

"Haha, Lao Xiao, you are just too modest."

Several people came to a small pavilion by the lake. At this moment, the pavilion had already arranged a table full of wine and food, and servants were serving dishes to the table from time to time.

"Oh, it's so rich." Xiao Tianci was not polite, and sat down in the main seat, looking at the table full of dishes and said, "Old Xiao, look at you, are you using it so polite? There are so many dishes that you can't finish and waste it."

Xiao Changlong's face is even darker. MD, you are the young master from the capital, you have delicacies every day, and you still know what it means to be a shame to waste?

"The Second Young Master is so polite. There is nothing to be entertained in the small rural town. It's all wild game in the mountains. I hope the Second Young Master will not dislike it."

"Yes, Second Young Master, all the people in our Xingye City are good hunters. There are so many wild game, so the city lord has no preparation today. When the other day, I, Old Wei, will be the host, and I will invite you to have a good game meal." Wei Biao, who was sitting in the lower head, also agreed.

"Haha." Xiao Tianci smiled faintly and looked at Jia Xu with a faint smile. The two exchanged glances, and Jia Xu nodded slightly.

"You two, you don't have to be so polite. The young master is now the head of Xingye City. There are many opportunities in the future. I wonder if you are right?" Jia Xu stood up, bowed to Xiao Changlong and others, and said with a smile.

After hearing his words, Xiao Changlong and Wei Biao both changed their faces. They have been politely calling him the second young master rather than the city lord since Xiao Tianci arrived, which is actually deliberate.

Only the literary and historical master Zhang Jingting and Lord Zhang did not speak from the beginning, but kept observing Xiao Tianci and others with a scrutiny.

"I wonder if these two gentlemen are?" Xiao Changlong did not answer, but asked Xiao Tianci.

"Oh, these two are my close friends, Jia Xu and Zhang Liao, you will be considered colleagues from now on. You might as well get closer today."

"Ha, it turns out it was Mr. Jia and Mr. Zhang, who were disrespectful." Xiao Changlong bowed to Jia Xu and the others with a smile, but there was obvious disdain on his face.

"You are polite Lord Xiao. In the future, we will be subordinates of the city lord. I hope to cooperate with you sincerely." Jia Xu didn't care, but Zhang Liao kept sitting with a cold face and expressionless face.

"Okay." Xiao Tianci gently tapped the table with his hand and said, "Old Xiao, where has that garrison gone? Can you tell me now?"

"Returning to the Second Young Master, General Lin Chong led his troops to the Great Wilderness Forest early yesterday morning. I heard that the lone wolf thief had a big move this time. General Lin planned ahead and went to the bottom first." Xiao Changlong's eyes turned quickly, and then said seriously.

"Oh, General Lin actually led his army to suppress the bandits?" Xiao Tianci expressed his surprise. What plane is Lin Chong doing? Even if he doesn't like him anymore, he doesn't need such a fake reason, right? Take a thousand old and weak soldiers to suppress the bandits? You're so ill. "Haha, General Lin is really from the kingdom.

Model, I am alone in suppressing bandits, and I admire you."

"Or... it's not counting. General Lin is just going to inquire, yes, just inquire about the situation." Xiao Changlong himself blushed a little, and emphasized in a more emphasis.

Although he and Lin Chong belong to the Xiao family's big house, they have never dealt with each other very much. Therefore, when facing Xiao Tianci who was airborne this time, the boycott methods they adopted were also different.

As he said that, Xiao Changlong continued, "By the second young master, I heard that this time it was my incompetent brother who guarded the second young master's safety. Why didn't you see him today?"

Hearing Xiao Changlong's words, Xiao Tianci's face changed slightly, and then replied with a sad face, "Old Xiao, sorry, I didn't expect to encounter a killer on my way to Xingye City this time. General Xiao unfortunately died in order to protect me."

"What!" Xiao Changlong was shocked, "Second Master, are you talking about it true? My brother has gone?"

"Yes, Lao Xiao, please feel sorry for me." Xiao Tianci nodded sadly, "Ai! It's all my fault. If it weren't for the desperate efforts to protect me, General Changhu wouldn't have been killed by the thieves."

"Changhu died?" Xiao Changlong's face was pale and bloodless. He murmured silently twice, then shouted loudly, "No, I don't believe that Changhu can enter the innate world with only one foot. What kind of thief is capable of killing him?"

"Old Xiao, this is the case, don't be too sad." Xiao Tianci patted his shoulder and pretended to be sad. "This group of killers is numerous and has high skills. They are all first-class. General Changhu left first to protect us and killed the enemy, but was eventually hacked to death by the thief. Alas! General Changhu, he is really a great person, a pure person, a person who is free from low-level interests. Don't worry, Lao Xiao, I will report to my grandfather and ask his grandfather to treat the descendants of General Changhu well."

Xiao Changlong suddenly felt angry and sat back on his seat. His gray lips were completely bloodless. He trembled slightly like two willow leaves, so anxious that he couldn't even speak.

"Hmph! Then why is General Changhu killed? Second Young Master and you two servants are intact?" Wei Biao snorted coldly and asked in a tone of doubt.

"Didn't I say it? General Changhu is covering us and let us escape first. He stayed to block the enemy." Xiao Tianci gritted his teeth and said, "He exchanged his life for him. To be honest, I really regret it now. He shouldn't have escaped at that time. He should have stayed to fight side by side with General Changhu, but unfortunately it was too late. Alas!"

"Okay, I understand. It's not his fault for being a personal guard. As a personal guard, he should work hard." Xiao Changlong stood up quietly, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes, a vicious grinning appeared on his face, and gritted his teeth, "But don't let me find out who did it, I will let him die without a complete body."

"That's for sure. This revenge must be avenged. Lao Xiao, don't worry, I will beg my grandfather to send someone to investigate." Xiao Tianci curled his lips, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.
