C265 Spring for Cheng Zhipeng (1)

"Let me tell you, although the Fengyang City is located in a strategic location, it is still an isolated city. Only a pig's brain would choose to rebel here! Furthermore, my army is outside the city right now. Do you think it's possible for them to fight against the elite soldiers under my command with just the slight fighting strength of the city guards? " Situ Qingyun continued to explain. Towards a famous general in the Empire, he indeed had a certain say in the military aspects.

"Commander Ni, this matter ends here. Our Surveillance Council can pretend that we didn't see it, and we can pretend that it didn't happen, but from now on, you and Great General Situ shouldn't engage in any more gang fights, or else I won't be able to explain this to the imperial city! I'm afraid that the both of you will be in trouble as well, especially you, Commander Ni! " Yan Luo said to Ni Qushi and Situ Qingyun with a darkened face.

"I only have one request, hand over Cheng Zhipeng's family and I'll take them away, and then leave!" Situ Qingyun shrugged indifferently, he glanced at commander Ni and said.

Hearing his words, Ni Qushi wanted to die, what the hell was this, he was still in a rush, where could he find Cheng Zhipeng's family? Moreover, now that his own concubine was making a fool of herself, the walls and doors of his command palace were all torn apart and burnt down, so what was wrong with him, Situ Qingyun? Now he was still asking for someone else? Wasn't this what he meant by bullying others?

"My great general, you've seen it, they're not here anymore. Where do you want me to go find them? But I can promise you, as long as you find them, you can bring them all away. I won't stop you." Ni Qushi said with a sullen face as he helplessly looked at the two Surveillance Council s, and then promised Situ Qingyun.

"General, what do you say?" Yan Luo turned his head to look at Situ Qingyun, signalling him to stop. If he forced this commander again, he would probably be the one to end his own life.

"We'll do it that way!" Situ Qingyun thought about it, the person he wanted to take away was no longer here, the main entrance and walls of the Palace had already been demolished by him, and his two goals of coming here today could be considered to have been accomplished.

"Alright, it's time to disperse. We'll be leaving as well. We won't disturb Commander Ni in dealing with the family matters!" Yan Luo glanced at the two people who were lying on the ground, then spoke to the rest. After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the dungeon door.

"Sigh, wait, my lord. You promised to save me!" Seeing that Yan Luo was about to leave, the lady became anxious and asked anxiously.

"My premise is that you will provide me with useful information, but what did you tell me?" Yan Luo turned his head and smiled as he responded to the woman with a question.

As long as the conflict between the two sides did not break out, it would be considered a satisfactory outcome. As for the man and woman on the ground, firstly, this woman did not provide any valuable information, and secondly, this woman was Ni Qushi's concubine. If he still had to interfere in such a situation, then he would not give this commander any face.

Furthermore, in truth, Commander Ni was quite pitiful. His concubine had been mistakenly treated as the Cheng family's madam, and his concubine had been ruined. The main gate of the manor and its walls had been torn apart so badly that they didn't look like they were going to vent their anger on him.

"..."

Hearing Yan Luo's words, everyone felt ashamed. Surveillance Council was indeed a place where demons danced wildly, and what kind of person would be able to lead them?

? ?.

Very quickly, Situ Qingyun ordered the troops that were rushing over from outside the city to return to the city along the same route. It was even more famous for using the excuse of 'drills' as an excuse to openly cover up his impulsive actions.

Of course, towards this kind of excuse, the two directors of Surveillance Council could not help but be speechless. However, they still had a headache as to how to write this report to the Supervising Court.

Before Situ Qingyun left, he kindly bestowed a hundred taels of silver to his subordinate, which made Ni Qushi extremely happy. Although the amount of money was very little, and there was definitely not enough money to repair the main entrance of the Commander's Estate, it was enough for him to respect. At the very least, he was very satisfied with what he had done.

He even had the heart to fight Situ Qingyun with his life on the line. However, he only heard the guard saying: "My General said that the army was in a hurry to enter the city and accidentally damaged the north gate of the city. There isn't much money, but we'll take our leave now!"

With that said, the guard cupped his fists towards Ni Qushi, and turned to leave. who looked like an idiot was left behind, along with the two directors of Surveillance Council who were also dumbstruck on the spot.

In addition to displaying the city's reputation, the most important thing was for it to have a certain degree of defensive power. Otherwise, if there was an invasion, the city walls would be completely guarded, but if the city gate was easily broken, then wouldn't that be a tragedy and a joke?

Furthermore, it required a large amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources. If the city gate was damaged, even the cost of repairing it would be at least ten thousand silvers. Otherwise, it would be impossible to repair it at all.

But Situ Qingyun had only given him a hundred silver, not to mention repairing the city gate, even the money used to paint workers was not enough! Ni Qushi looked at the one hundred taels of silver in his hands, and then at the entrance of the Commander's Estate that was basically in ruins behind him.

Yan Luo who was at the side could not watch any longer, so he called a city guard and asked them about the damage done to the city gate. Not long after this city guard ran out, he brought back a soldier who was stationed at the north side of the city, whose head and face were covered with dirt, and was not much better than those that were used to excavate coal mines. His armor was also severely damaged, and he estimated that he would have to change to a new one, but he knew the general situation on the north side of the city, so he explained to everyone.

Although the soldier did not know how the other party had done it, he had clearly seen the current state of the city gate. Although the other party had not known how they had done it, he had clearly seen the situation of the city gate.

The soldier did not know the exact cause, and very few people knew. They only heard a loud noise, and at the same time, there was a strong fire. The fire flashed for a moment, and if they wanted to capture it again, they would only see smoke and dust, mixed with debris.

"Who approached the city gate before this phenomenon occurred?" Yan Luo, who was also completely confused, could not help but ask, even if there were any clues, it would be fine.

"My lord, we saw a few men dressed like northern soldiers rushing to the city gate with several black bags on their backs, and not long after, they came out again, and they ran away like deserters." My lord, we saw a few men dressed like northern soldiers, and not long after, they came out of the city with a few black bags on their backs, and then they ran away like deserters, and then they ran away as fast as they could. "My lord, we saw a few men dressed like northern soldiers, and just as soon as we went up to check, a loud sound came from the city gate. The soldier gestured with his hands and feet in a dance, spitting out stars. Finally, he told them everything that had happened.

Yan Luo liked to be clean, for this kind of person, he would even vomit if he spoke, he forced himself to take a few steps back with a smile and hold his breath, and only then did he persist through the whole process.

"Looks like I have to ask Great General Situ about this. Shadow, let's go back!" Yan Luo said to the shadow with a solemn face.

"Milords, please uphold justice for me. Where can I go to exchange this small amount of money for the city gates?" Ni Qushi's face was full of grievance, and cried out to the two directors of Surveillance Council.

"This ?" Please restrain your grief! " Yan Luo unabashedly patted Ni Qushi's shoulder, then turned and left with the shadow without turning back once.

Ni Qushi was even more shocked on the spot. He was starting to understand what his concubine was thinking, this group of people were actually professional 'lackeys that grind and kill donkey' masters.

? ?.

As soon as Situ Qingyun returned to his residence, he was called over to his nephew's side by a servant. All the way, Situ Qingyun had been planning how to explain things to his nephew, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't come up with a reasonable excuse.

After all, he couldn't tell his nephew that he had already met with the couple, but he just ignored them and left. If he went again, the two of them would disappear into thin air, right? He didn't even believe those words, let alone his nephew who was as wise as a demon.

Situ Qingyun braced himself and came to his nephew's courtyard. Just as he entered the courtyard door, he saw a few people, four of whom he recognized, but he was not familiar with the other three at all.

The four people he knew were his sister-in-law Murong Fenghuang, his nephew Situ Wuchi, his nephew's wife Leng Nuohan, and his Little girl Lan'er. As for the other three people, Situ Qingyun had never seen them before.

The older man looked to be in his thirties, and the first impression he gave was not bad. He was tall and straight, with a determined face, and there was a heroic air about him. The calluses on his hands protruded, and he seemed to be a good hand with a sword.

The girl at the side had a pretty face. It couldn't be said that she was beautiful, but she was similarly valiant and had a somewhat heroic look to her. She was holding the face of a young man in her hands, looking slightly flustered. There was a look of gratification on her face, as if she had experienced a life and death situation.

"Sister-in-law, I thought it was nephew looking for me, but you called me here?" The reason why Situ Qingyun did not greet strangers was very simple; he was unfamiliar with them, and did not interact with them.

"Wrong, it really wasn't me. It was your precious nephew who was looking for you!" Murong Fenghuang pointed to Gongsun Ze Tian who was on the wheelchair and explained.

"Third brother, this ? haha ? who is the most powerful in the world? Third uncle is the commander of hundreds of thousands of Northern Frontier troops, and he has to deal with all kinds of matters everyday. It's inevitable that he will make a mistake, don't you see ?" When Situ Qingyun heard that the person who called him here really was his nephew, his old face immediately blushed red, because he had messed up with this matter. Even if his nephew did not say anything, his old face would not be able to live. And so, for the first time in his life, he heard Situ Qingyun say it in a roundabout way.

"Hehe, Third Uncle, you don't seem to be the type of person to beat around the bush!" How could Gongsun Ztian not know the personality of this Third Uncle? He opened his mouth and said jokingly.

The one with the surname Ni said that he had gone missing, I don't know where he went. Give me a few days, I will turn the entire Fengyang City upside down, and help you find him! Situ Qingyun knew that if he continued to take a detour, he would be seen through by this brat. He decided that he might as well not hide anymore and revealed the whole truth of the matter.
