Seeing Prince Li turn around and leave in frustration, the city lord Jin Dazhi stood up and said to Xu Shizhong: "I don't care who you belong to, after all, we all belong to the imperial court and the Holy Emperor. Your army has your own defense zone.

Our local affairs are governed by our local governments, and you have nothing to do with them."

Deputy City Mayor Cao said: "Yes, you are not part of our defense zone. As for whether you are a member of the Imperial Guard, you cannot interfere in local affairs."

Jin Dazhi and Deputy Territory Master Cao looked at Xu Shizhong's military uniform and saw that he was not a general or marshal. They expected that he was just an ordinary officer. Even if he was a member of the Imperial Guard of the capital, he was only a subordinate and could not hold the role of chopsticks.

, so they don’t really care.

After all, the lord of a city was at least a fifth-rank official in the court, so they didn't take Xu Shizhong seriously.

The reason why Prince Li was afraid of Xu Shizhong was simply because Xu Shizhong's duty was to help the saints monitor these princes and nobles who had gone abroad, in order to fear that they would gather together to rebel against him.

Deputy City Lord Cao said, and said to his men who were driving the carriage: "Send the prisoner to the Yamen quickly."

Xu Shizhong shouted: "How dare you."

The two sides were in a stalemate, and Deputy City Lord Cao did not dare to make any excessive moves. You must know that the Imperial Guards are not easy to mess with. Although they cannot interfere in local affairs, they are the favorites in the eyes of the Holy Lord, even if they take his life.

, by the way, I listed a few crimes for him, which is just a trivial matter.

Deputy City Lord Cao knew how powerful it was, so he had no choice but to ask City Lord Jin Dazhi for help. He didn't want to be the one who stood out.

As the lord of a city, Jin Dazhi certainly had to put on a show.

"Officer, several murder cases are related to this criminal. Let's do this. When we investigate the fact that this criminal has not committed any crime, we will definitely hand him over to you. Do you think that's okay?"

"Haha, Lord Jin, what you said is in vain. I only know that when several murder cases occurred, the prisoners you said were shackled and locked up in the prison of the Prince's Mansion. You have no basis for this.

How can you arrest good people randomly?"

Xu Shizhong said domineeringly: "I'll say it again, if there is no real evidence, you will be released immediately. Otherwise, I, Xu, don't care what your identity is, you can think about it yourself."

Deputy City Lord Cao took a step forward and said: "Our City Lord Jin is the official of the imperial court after all. We handle the affairs that should be handled under his rule, so there is no need to think about it."

"You mean you won't let me go?" Xu Shizhong asked aggressively.

"Of course, unless you are a general stationed in this city, I will definitely not compromise with you." Jin Dazhi said.

Jin Dazhi knew that during the moment of war preparation, the local area should obey the orders of the military defending the city. Although it was now in a state of war readiness, Xu Shizhong did not belong to the military defending the city.

Driving, two fast horses galloped towards here. A woman wearing a black outer coat and a red inner coat came to the door of the Prince's Mansion at the lead, followed by a young soldier.

The woman reined in her horse and stopped. She glanced at Wei Yang in the prison car with her big clear eyes, got off her horse and walked up to Jin Dazhi.

"Haha, General Xiao, what brought you here?" Jin Dazhi asked politely.

The visitor was none other than Xiao Yi. Even though she was not by Wei Yang's side, she knew Wei Yang's every move.

For example, Miss Jin from the city lord's palace was disfigured, and the young master from the prince's palace and the captain of the city guard were killed. She basically knew the whole story.

"City Master Jin, to make a long story short, I am here today to take away the prisoner you captured. I know that you have no real evidence at all, so be more cheerful and hand the person over to me."

Xiao Yi said without any doubt.

This made Jin Dazhi and Deputy City Lord Cao a little confused. Is this boy, an ordinary young man, worthy of being so valued by the officers of the Imperial Guard and the generals of the defending army?

"This... this... General Xiao, I know that this is a wartime period, and our local people have to take orders from your military. We can leave this person to you, but can you let me know what this young man has to do with your military?"

What’s the connection? It’s both the Imperial Guard and the General’s.”

Now that the general of the northern army had spoken, Jin Dazhi had to obey the order and release the people. When preparing for war, local officials should be controlled by the military guarding the city and take all orders from the military.

Jin Dazhi glanced at General Xiao and Xu Shizhong and asked.

"To be honest, this young man is my younger brother." General Xiao glanced at Wei Yang in the prison car and said.

Xu Shizhong also said: "Me too, this boy is my brother."

Xiao Yi and Xu Shizhong looked at each other and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"Let him go, let him go immediately." Jin Dazhi ordered.

Wei Yang got out of the prison car, and a little girl rushed out from a covered carriage on the side of the road, ran over and hugged Wei Yang.

"Brother, I miss you so much." The little girl said sweetly. Following the little girl was Xu Shizhong's father. The old man wore new clothes today and looked much more energetic.

"Xiao Qin, you are so beautifully dressed." Wei Yang hugged Xiao Qin and said.

"Okay, it's okay now, but my old man was worried to death." Father Xu patted Wei Yang on the shoulder and said.

"Brother, you didn't suffer, did you?" Xu Shizhong came over and asked.

"Thank you for your concern, Brother Xu. I'm fine, little brother."

"I can't tell that my brother has good connections. Even the great general of the northern army is here to pick you up personally."

Xu Shizhong said with emotion.

Wei Yang glanced at Xiao Yi. Jin Dazhi was pulling Xiao Yi aside and saying something.

Jin Dazhi was complaining to Xiao Yi, and he said to Xiao Yi: "General Xiao, to be honest, I don't regret or care much about the murder of the prince's son and Captain Jia of the city guard. This prince's son

I have also heard about some of the evil deeds of Captain Jia, including Captain Jia. I also know some of his bad deeds. It is only a matter of time before they fall..."

"City Lord Jin, please tell me what you want to say." Xiao Yi didn't want to listen to his verbosity.

"It's like this. You know my little girl's current condition. She's acting crazy all day long. There's no peace in the whole house."

When Jin Dazhi said this, his face began to twitch. He tried his best to control his emotions and said: "I have spoiled this girl since she was a child. She looks like a human being or a ghost now. It makes me heartbroken."

As a contemporary of Miss Jin, Xiao Yi also feels the same way. It is really difficult for a woman who loves beauty to suddenly have her face completely ruined and become ugly.

"I'm not looking for the cause now, because when things happened, although it was the girl who was at fault first, the appearance of this young man runs through the entire main line. I..."
