"This... Okay! Just like you said, I really can't help it! I can only push this matter to Nantian and them, they will definitely not be able to keep this necklace, I just hope they can escape their lives!"

Just when the city lord finally decided to push this trouble to the Zhenfeng Dart Bureau, a soldier came outside the door, and then he heard the soldier report: "My lord, Yan Nantian of the Zhenfeng Dart Bureau came with his daughter and a young man to ask for a meeting!"

Upon hearing this, the city lord and the soldier before were stunned for a moment, and then the city lord smiled bitterly and said to himself: "I knew that this guy would not accept this task so easily!"

"Your Excellency, you can't be soft-hearted! No matter what he says, you can't cancel this mission, or the matter will really fall on you!"

"Hey~!I know it in my heart!You stand down first!Let the three of them come here to meet me!By the way!Bring me the bag of tea I saved and bring it to a pot!" The city lord nodded, and then gave instructions!

Yue Nantian and his daughter and Long Tianci were all waiting outside the City Lord's Mansion at this time, and the person who reported the matter came back after about five or six minutes of entering, and then led the three of them towards the City Lord's office!

Coming to the door, the soldier knocked on the door, and then said, "My lord!

"Come in!" came the voice of the city lord from the house!

Hearing this voice, the soldier opened the door and made a gesture of invitation to Yue Nantian and the three of them, and then the three of them entered the house one after another, and as soon as they entered the house, Yue Nantian saw that the city lord was sitting behind the table reading the letter, and his brows were furrowed together!

As soon as he saw Yue Nantian and the three of them come in, the city lord put the letter on the table, then stood up with a smile and walked around the table to the three of them, and said politely: "Nantian, you are finally here! I thought you would have to wait a while before you can come! Please take a seat! You go to the account office and bring the deposit, hurry up!" While politely giving up his seat to Yue Nantian and the three of them, the city lord ordered the soldier who led Yue Nantian and the three of them in!

The soldier said yes and turned to leave, and Yue Nantian's face was very ugly when he heard the city lord's previous words, he wanted to push off that task this time. [Full text reading]

"The city lord is polite! I'm here this time..."Yue Nantian knew that this matter was getting more and more difficult to handle, so he decided to get straight to the point and make it clear!

"Hey~!I know you're here for the escort mission, to be honest, I really didn't expect you to take on this task, our brothers have known each other for more than 20 years, and the relationship has always been good, I also regard you as my own brother, I am really touched by your ability to share my worries, brother, I thank you here!" How could the city lord let Yue Nantian finish speaking, so he directly interrupted Yue Nantian's words, and bowed to Yue Nantian as he spoke!

Yue Nantian didn't expect that the city lord would deliberately gag his mouth to prevent himself from finishing his words, and for a while he showed an embarrassed expression, the other party was saluting himself because he was willing to accept the task, wouldn't it be a shame to the city lord if he said it at this time? Yue Nantian also knew that he couldn't speak immediately about this matter, so he could only decide to wait a while and talk about it!

The city lord was secretly happy when he saw that he had successfully made Yue Nantian shut up and stop talking, and then hurriedly beckoned Yue Nantian and the three of them to sit down, and asked his subordinates to bring up the tea that had been prepared a long time ago!

"Nantian!Try this tea, this is the tip of the phoenix feathers of the Vermilion Bird Empire, one of the best tea leaves that break the boundary, the last time I went to the imperial capital to do business, the old prime minister rewarded me with a little bit, I didn't want to drink it, this time you helped me so much, I don't know how to thank you, now I will toast you with tea instead of wine!" The city lord is constantly attacking, and opening and closing his mouth is a gratitude to Yue Nantian.

How could Yue Nantian sit still? His heart was the same as that of a cat, although he always wanted to say it, but the city lord never gave him a chance!

The city lord is obviously deliberate, he has never stopped talking about the east and west, from Yue Nantian to Zhenfeng Dart Bureau, and from the Dart Bureau to the city he manages, during which he often complained, saying how he worked hard for this city, how he thought about the people, how he neglected his family for work, how he was sorry for his children, in short, the words were simply gushing!

Yue Nantian searched for a long time and didn't find room to interject, and finally his eyes subconsciously glanced at the letter on the table, he knew very well in his heart that he had to find a topic to talk about things, otherwise he would have no chance!

Just when the city lord was still talking there, Yue Nantian suddenly asked, "Lord City Lord, when I came in just now, I saw that you were reading that letter, and your face was not very good-looking, is there anything on that letter that makes you embarrassed?"

Yue Nanshan was clever and wanted to use this letter as a breakthrough to find an opportunity to speak, who knew that the reason why this letter was placed on the table was completely deliberate by the city lord! After Yue Nantian's words had just been asked, the city lord suddenly showed a bitter expression, then stood up and picked up the letter, and turned around and handed it to Yue Nantiandao: "The imperial capital has sent it, it was written to me by the prime minister himself, you can see for yourself!"

Yue Nantian didn't actually want to read the letter, but he just wanted to use this letter as a topic to say what he wanted to say, who knew that the city lord actually gave the letter to himself, which made Yue Nantian unexpected, the letter sent by the imperial capital was still written by the prime minister, if it involved state secrets, how could he read it?

Just when Yue Nantian hesitated, the city lord spoke again and said, "Take a look! After reading it, you will know why I was worried before!"

The city lord said so, Yue Nantian was not good at refusing, so he could only read the letter carefully, and the content of the letter was actually very simple, the prime minister warned the city lord The emperor of the Xuanwu Empire was angry because the necklace had not been delivered for a long time, and wanted to punish the city lord, it was the prime minister who helped the city lord to intercede to delay the time a little, but the emperor of the Xuanwu Empire had already given a death order, at most half a month, if the things could not be delivered, the city lord would be punished for bullying the king, and the city lord would be killed, and the people of Zhenfeng City would be convicted of bullying the king with the city lord, and the people of the whole city would be punished, the men were sent to the mines as slaves, and the women were used as toys for the soldiers to vent, all the old people were executed, and the children were sent to the labor camp to work as coolies!

When Yue Nantian read this letter, he was stupid, he couldn't have imagined that the emperor of the Xuanwu Empire would implicate all the people in Zhenfeng City because of such a necklace, and in another half a month, if this thing could not be delivered to the imperial capital, then the city of Zhenfeng City would completely disappear in the breaking boundary!
