Wang Xiongyan is fifty years old today, and according to the algorithm of the Chinese people, he has reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven. But in the officialdom, this age is not old, just like Wang Xiongyan, now he is the prefect of the fourth grade of Nanjing Yingtianfu's official residence, and as the prefect of the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, it stands to reason that he should be very satisfied when the official reaches this level, but it is a pity that the news he just received today shocked him like a thunderbolt from the sky.

"Grandpa Xu's army was defeated, that Yang Feng really dared to go to war with Grandpa Xu, he ...... How dare he? ”

This afternoon, when he was carefully admiring and counting the mirror that was full of one person high and several boxes of silver confiscated from Yang Feng's store in the past two days, the bad news of Xu Hongji's defeat suddenly came into his ears, and Wang Xiongyan, who was originally admiring the box full of silver, felt bad about the whole person, and the silver that was still extremely cute in his eyes suddenly turned into a pile of hot potatoes.

Looking at the official standing in front of him, Wang Xiongyan held back the panic in his heart and asked sharply, "Ma Bantou, what you said is the truth?" If you dare to deceive this official, you should know what the consequences are? ”

Ma Bantou is burly and full of meat, which gives a very bad first impression. This Ma Bantou is the guy who personally led the team to arrest Yang Laishun and his wife the day before yesterday, and after hearing Wang Xiongyan's words at this moment, he knelt down with a puff and said in a trembling voice: "Lord Prefect, even if the little one has ten guts, he will not dare to deceive the adult at night, Grandpa Xu returned from defeat, this is seen by the people all over the city, if you don't believe it, just send someone out to inquire." ”

Looking at Ma Bantou who was kneeling on the ground, Wang Xiongyan sat on the chair with a puff and a look of despair on his face. Originally, before today, he, like everyone else, thought that Yang Feng's end had come, and when Xu Hongji, Zhang Weixian, Liao Yongquan and other Nanjing magnates acted together, it was almost impossible for Yang Feng to turn over as a third-grade Jiang Ningwei commander, and all he had to do was to follow these people and pick up the cheap.

In fact, don't talk about Yang Feng, even Donglai Shunyinlou, which has Cao Dazhong's backing behind him, was also seized by them, and I didn't see what Cao Dazhong dared to do. Don't look at Cao Dazhong as the person of the Duke of Wei, but even the Duke of Wei still does not dare to do anything to Xu Hongji and them, you must know that these people represent the most noble group of people in the Ming Dynasty except for the royal family, a group of nobles who can be hereditary and replaces the relatives of the country.

Don't look at these nobles who are very low-key on weekdays and never participate in court disputes, but this does not mean that they have no energy. On the contrary, after more than two hundred years, they have already woven a big intertwined net, and the energy in private is very huge, even Wei Zhongxian's person does not dare to offend them easily, so when Wang Xiongyan received that Xu Hongji wanted to deal with Donglai Shunyinlou and Yang Feng, he did not hesitate to start, and he simply didn't even ask a reason.

Now these boxes of silver in his house were found from Donglai Shunyin Building and several shops opened by Yang Feng, originally Wang Xiongyan planned to send most of the silver to the Wei State Mansion after leaving his own share after the inventory, but before he could send it out, he received the bad news of Xu Hongji's defeat, and now Wang Xiongyan was a little sitting. He looked at the piles of silver on the ground, and what was still so cute in his eyes seemed to have become a talisman now.

"My lord, what are we going to do?" Ma Bantou obviously also knew the seriousness of the matter, he had been in the yamen for so many years, he was naturally not one of those fledgling rookies, now that Grandpa Xu was defeated, it was difficult to say what happened next, thinking of what he had done to the housekeeper couple before, beads of sweat began to ooze from his forehead.

"What should I do, how does this official know?" Wang Xiongyan was so angry that he kicked Ma Bantou's buttocks, although Ma Bantou felt a tingling pain in his buttocks, but he didn't dare to make a sound, and still looked at his top boss with pleading eyes, hoping that he could come up with a way to settle the matter.

"...... like this" Wang Xiongyan took a deep breath and was about to speak, but he heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, and soon even the ground under his feet was faintly shaking. After hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Wang Xiongyan's face changed, and he could hear it at once, these horses' hooves were very dense, and they were by no means something that a few horses or even dozens of horses could make, but it seemed to be ......

Wang Xiongyan muttered a few words on his lips, and suddenly shouted: "It's the cavalry of the brigade......"

"Boom la la ......"

At this moment, a voice came from afar outside the lobby, "Where is the Ying Tian Governor's Mansion?" Hurry up and give Lao Tzu out! ”

Soon, there was a wailing sound outside, and soon several officials ran in, and a young official knelt on the ground and said with a crying voice: "My lord, Ma Bantou, it's not good, a group of Qiu Ba came outside, they smashed our yamen, many brothers were beaten, and the leader kept saying that we should let his housekeeper out." ”

Yang Feng ...... It's Yang Feng here! Wang Xiongyan's face turned pale, he just arrested someone's housekeeper the day before yesterday, and now they are coming to find the field, what can I do? You must know that Wang Xiongyan has less than 100 servants in his hands, and he smashes a hawker's stall on weekdays, speculating in a house or something, but if he really wants to play with Qiu Ba, who kills people without blinking, they are not enough to see.

Wang Xiongyan suddenly grabbed Ma Bantou's collar, and somehow got the strength to lift him up, and said in a trembling voice: "Hurry up...... Stop them, my officer...... This official immediately went out through the back door and went to the Wei State Mansion to ask for help! ”

Ma Bantou said with a sad face: "My lord, the prefect's yamen must have been surrounded by those Qiu Ba, and we can't get out at all!" ”

"Ah...... How can this be done? ”

Wang Xiongyan was almost born crying, is this the legendary June debt repayment?

Just when Wang Xiongyan was scared and his feet were weak, there was a heavy and neat footsteps outside, and soon with a loud "bang", the people outside were kicked away, and a group of people who were tightly wrapped in iron armor appeared in front of them, the person headed by him was tall, his eyes were extraordinarily cold, his sharp and cold gaze swept around the room, and finally locked his eyes on Wang Xiongyan, who was wearing an official uniform with a patch embroidered with a cloud goose on his chest, only to see him striding over, grabbed Wang Xiongyan's collar, lifted it up like a chicken, and asked coldly, "You are Wang Xiongyan of Yingtian Governor's Mansion?" ”

Wang Xiongyan mustered up the last courage and stammered: "This official, it is the Ying Tian Governor's Mansion, who are you, dare to treat this official like this, are you not afraid of Wang Fa?" ”

"Wang Fa...... Hahaha......"

After Wang Xiongyan's words were played, it caused a burst of mocking laughter......
