I don't know if all living beings are suffering. Anyway, He Yue caught a cold because of the rain when he went back.
It took two full days of being ill to get out of bed normally, thanks to Aleya's care during this time.
During this period of time, Bai Huang served as the patrol captain as usual to maintain law and order in the city, successfully cracked two cases of fanning the flames, and arrested seven lawbreakers.
I took Felita to the blacksmith shop, and poured all the rare items harvested from the demons on the table. Including the glowing drill horns, the mane of the red-maned bear, and the precious materials dropped by several other fifth-level demons that Alaya killed. This time, Felita came here in person to allow her to communicate more with the owner of the blacksmith shop and strive to make the most convenient staff.
As for me, after a good day's sleep, I called the people together and gave a speech, full of energy.
The content of the speech is also very simple, nothing more than to tell everyone. My dad kicked me out of the family for no other reason than that I was an unpopular kid. Suffering from being excluded, I was driven to Yuxi City, and I was like a bereaved dog. This is certainly the reason why I am not likable, but it also shows the status of Yuxi City in my father's heart.
"I know that some of you are dissatisfied with me because of this incident. It feels like I took you out of Yunyang and onto a road full of unknowns."
"I have also heard a lot of comments, saying that I have dragged down Yuxi City and ruined your stable life."
"But everyone has a steelyard. I think you can all see what Yuxi City was like before I came, and what Yuxi City is like now. Lighten corvee and pay less attention to taxation, emphasize agriculture and business, promote advantages and eliminate disadvantages. I basically do what I should do. It’s all done, and you look at your living standards, which are still steadily rising. So far, many of you have got rid of thatched huts and built new houses.”
"This momentum will continue. As long as I am the lord of Yuxi City, Yuxi City will never fall. I don't need you to do anything for me, you don't need you to kill the enemy desperately, and you don't need you to sacrifice yourself. There is only one thing to pay attention to , That is to perform their own duties and do their own work well. The soldiers on the front line are ready to fight, and I hope you will not hold them back. Repeat, unless there are special circumstances, you must stick to your job even if the sky falls! "
After speaking in a few words, I went back to the house and fell asleep.
Anyway, what you have to face will come sooner or later, it is better to stabilize your mentality and recharge your energy to face the next storm.
When He Yue dragged his sick body to work, Yunyang's envoy finally arrived at the city.
When I boarded the city wall and looked down, I found that the envoy leading the team looked familiar. After thinking about it for a while, I remembered that this person seemed to be Yunyang's housekeeper, his qualifications were relatively old, and his name was Pulun. He stood in line and stood very correctly. He was my brother's dog leg a long time ago. When my brother made trouble for me, he often fanned the flames on the sidelines.
It made me uncontrollably a little funny.
It seems that my brother was unwilling to give up this opportunity to humiliate me, and he didn't dare to be an envoy to Yuxi City in person, so he simply sent his number one licking dog to convey his leadership instructions, which is a good idea. I didn't say anything, I leaned on the city wall and reached out to greet him:
"Hey, Uncle Pu, come here, our small town is full of splendor. I don't know why you came here this time?"
Pullen is thin, with a flat head, a hunchback, a triangular goatee, and small soybean-sized eyes with glaucoma. When he turned his eyes, there was a kind smile on his face, and he said:
"Hasn't it been a long time since I saw you, young master? The master has some orders to pass on, so he sent the old man to say a few words, and brought a gift to the young master."
As he spoke, he pointed to several black boxes behind him.
Judging from the fact that a few people lifted the box, the things in the box should not be light. But it's hard to say if it's not something valuable. He didn't take the initiative to express his intentions, but talked about it in a roundabout way, probably because he was afraid that I wouldn't open the city gate and waste his time with him.
Although I knew it was just an excuse, I didn't expose it. shouted from afar:
"Open the city gate."
The thick door that had been strengthened twice opened slowly.
Pullen paced slowly and walked into the city. I also came down from the city wall and brought Alaya, Felita, Heyue and a series of my servants to the city gate to greet him. I have no right to control Bai Huang, but she came here on her own initiative today, straightened her chest and followed me, as if she was going to help me hold the stage.
I feel a little more grateful to her.
When Pullen saw me, he first greeted me with a smile, but when the city gate was closed, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted sharply:
"Li De! People are doing what the sky is watching. You have caused such a catastrophe. Don't you know how to plead guilty when you see me?"
I almost didn't laugh out loud, and hurriedly said with a sullen face:
"Master Pu, Lid is about to speak."
With his hands behind his back, Pullen snorted like an inspecting old man:
"oh?"
I added angrily:
"Just about to say, Mr. Pu, you have such a great official authority. You are not even my father's dog. My brother's dog is even lower than me in seniority. What is your name there? Something is wrong Talk about something, get out of here."
Pullen shouted:
"Presumptuous! If you are still the fourth son of Yunyang, I don't have to care about you. Now I am the envoy of Yunyang to Yuxi City, and you are about to be expelled from Yunyang. A bereaved dog is worthy of talking to me like this?"
I didn't speak, just looked at him coldly.
Pullen took a deep breath and said:
"Submit it!"
Naturally, one of the doglegs would present a scroll to Pullen with a smile on his face.
Pullen turned the scroll in his hand, looked at me contemptuously, and asked:
"Do you know what this is?"
what? Isn't it my father's handwritten letter
Before I could speak, he looked around at the people behind me, and then turned his gaze to Yuxi City, which is far less prosperous than Lingyun City. He stepped forward with two legs and was already walking towards the center of the city. The people on both sides of the road gave way and looked at the envoys from Yunyang from both sides. I shook my head and followed.
Pullen laughed and said:
"Hey, you, and you. Listen carefully! Because your stupid city lord committed a crime, the lord of Yunyang no longer wants him! Including you! You were also abandoned by Yunyang! From then on, Yunyang The city of Yuxi City will no longer exist in the land of Yangyang, and you will also lose your identity as a commoner of Yunyang forever. If you want to blame, blame your incompetent city lord!"
He shook his embroidered robe, and was surrounded by envoys, and walked towards the speech platform, holding only the tightly bound scroll in his hand.
