Chapter 156
“Click, click!!”
A sound of footsteps came from outside the gate.
Here, it’s the spicy crayfish that came back from outside.
When he saw the figure on the passenger seat, he was stunned at first, but quickly reacted.
A smile instantly appeared on his face, and he strode forward and said with a smile.
“Welcome to the envoy of the royal capital, I am busy with something just now, please forgive me for a slight delay!”
Cao Rui stood up and waved his hand repeatedly.
“Lord City Lord doesn’t have to be polite, I also have a routine this time, and I learned that Lord City Lord treats the people generously, and this official is also very admired!”
He said this from the heart, and there was no hypocrisy.
Although not much information has been collected at the moment.
But it can be seen that this city lord is ambitious, but at the same time loves the people like a son.
The two shook hands.
The spicy crayfish made a gesture of invitation and motioned for him to sit down and talk.
After the two were seated, the spicy crayfish introduced itself.
“Under the crayfish, a civilian person, because of the attack of the beast tide, led the civilians of the city to fight to the death. After that, he won the trust of the people and continuously helped Luofeng City, White Crane City, and now Huaibei City. ”
“After understanding the situation in Huaibei City, for the sake of the safety of the border people, he moved the people of other cities to Huaibei City together. Due to the large number of people, the city of Huaibei was expanded. Make your own claims, and hope that the royal capital will not blame! ”
These words are all spicy crayfish, lines that were thought up in their hearts before coming.
If he can get the permission of the royal capital, then he can recruit more displaced people in a bright way.
Wait until the end time comes.
Pull all the humans to the kingdom of God, just pat your ass and leave.
During this period, he planned to try not to clash with the royal capital.
These contents are verifiable.
I didn’t say much, but I described everything I had done.
Cao Rui’s mind was also constantly running.
All the information was filtered.
As for the city lord’s name “Xiao” Lobster, although it feels a little weird, there are more weird names in this world, but it is strange and does not continue to think about it.
Cao Rui felt that since the other party had explained everything straight to the point.
Then there is no need to hide it yourself.
He took out a scroll in his arms and handed it over, saying in his mouth.
“This is the letter of appointment of the royal capital, but it is not needed now. Originally, we all appointed the city lord of Qingfeng City to control Huaibei City, but now he is fighting and dying in the battlefield for his own selfish interests. The letter of appointment is hereby annulled. ”
Spicy Crayfish took the appointment letter and opened it to take a look.
It was exactly the same as described by the envoy in front of him.
He casually threw it on the table.
Turning his attention to Cao Rui again, his face also showed hesitation.
“There’s a reluctant invitation below!”
“Oh? Please also say so! ”
“At the time of the current occupation, he was the city lord of Huaibei City, and at present, the whole city is united, if other city lords are reassigned, it will definitely cause a lot of trouble, and after Xia hopes that the envoy can return to the royal capital, he will say a few kind words, so that he can smoothly sit on the position of this city lord.”
After speaking, he stretched out his palms and patted them twice.
“Snap!”
Two guards came in from outside carrying a box.
When the chest is opened, it is full of golden coins. A full box.
“Lord Envoy has worked hard all the way, and the conditions here are simple, and I have not been able to entertain Lord Envoy well, so this box of gold coins should be compensated below. I hope you will forgive me!! ”
“Hiss!!!”
After seeing a box full of gold coins, Cao Rui couldn’t help but gasp.
Although Huaibei City is rich, it is extremely difficult to come up with such a large box of gold coins. (This is just his own thoughts)
Don’t fake when you see each other’s faces.
Cao Rui waved his hand again and again.
“Can’t make it, can’t make it, although this official loves a little wealth, but so much money, absolutely unacceptable.” Along the way, this official also heard a lot of people’s praise for the city lord. Lord City Lord can still live a simple life and serve the people wholeheartedly, wouldn’t this be underestimating his own official. ”
The spicy crayfish’s face deliberately showed hesitation.
“But…”
Cao Rui saw that the other party still wanted to speak, and quickly stretched out his hand to suppress it.
“I know what the city lord means, I only need to take a dozen gold coins, and the rest I hope that the city lord will buy gold coins and distribute them to the people. As for the matter of the city lord, I will naturally intercede with the royal capital to help you. ”
Cao Rui was originally a clean official.
The reason why I want to take more than a dozen gold coins is also to not sweep everyone’s face.
Overall positioning for Cao Rui, good people are not exaggerated.
The spicy crayfish stood up and saluted Cao Rui.
This gift is genuine.
Few people in this world can see so many possessions without being moved.
Even on Earth, it is rare to do so.
His spicy crayfish has always admired this kind of person.
“Lord Envoy Gaoyi, I admire it very much!”
Being praised so much by the other party, Cao Rui was also a little embarrassed.
Quickly got up and pressed the other party back to his seat.
“Sit down and say, sit down and say, we are all people who are considerate of the people, and we don’t have to be polite to each other. When he came to Huaibei City, he was very happy to see the people’s heart. If that’s the case all over the country, that’s when we’re in a big time. ”
“Lord Shiguan is polite, and he is only exercising his duty in the next.”
Cao Rui nodded with an appreciative look.
“Originally, according to the process, this official also had to crown the new city lord, but now the situation has changed. I won’t stay here long, and immediately leave for the royal capital to discuss the affairs of the new city lord. ”
The spicy crayfish was slightly stunned when he heard this.
The officials of the ancient movies on the earth, one by one, saw the wealth and lustful, and tried to squeeze the local officials.
But here I met such an honest person, and I was extremely efficient and did not delay.
Try to say it politely.
“Why is Lord Envoy in such a hurry, rest here for two days and then go back!”
Cao Rui shook his head with a wry smile.
“Time does not wait for anyone, recently due to the influence of the beast tide, coupled with the recent assassination of the city lord by the League of Assassins, the appointment of new people is also very busy, and this official does not have time to stay here.”
“Oh? I wonder what the Assassin League is talking about by Lord Emissary? ”
“The League of Assassins is an underground organization that specializes in receiving assassination missions, this organization is very secretive, even after killing so many city lords, we still haven’t found their roots.”
“No wonder the border city has been so chaotic recently, this League of Assassins is really abominable. When Lord Envoy returns, I will send some warriors to accompany me to prevent those crumbs from mistreating you. ”
When he said this, his heart blossomed.
If it wasn’t for the wrong occasion, he would have clapped his hands happily.
A big thumbs up to those League of Assassins.
If it weren’t for those assassins, his spicy crayfish wouldn’t have developed so quickly.
It’s just that he doesn’t know that these assassinations were all done by the little monk and Xia Li. Those two were on their way to the royal capital at the moment.
“No, no, I don’t know if the assassination activities of the League of Assassins are over, those masters should stay and guard your side.” I have a 7-star strength Imperial Forest Army on my side, and it is definitely not a problem to protect my safety. ”
After Cao Rui finished speaking, he stood up.
“I won’t stop here, now get up and go back to the royal capital immediately.”
Spicy crayfish and others also stood up at the same time.
“Okay then, I won’t force it anymore, I’ll send it to adults.”
Cao Rui nodded and walked towards the door.
The others followed.
The moment when you get on the palanquin again at the gate.
The spicy crayfish took a money bag from the guard’s hand and stuffed it into Cao Rui’s hand.
“Lord Messenger, I will send you here, I wish you a good journey.”
Cao Rui took the money bag and shook it slightly in his hand.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he glanced at the crayfish.
However, it was not returned, and it was directly tucked into the sleeve.
“Leave!”
“Leave!”
The honor guard went back in the direction it came.
At the time of the upcoming embarkation.
Squeezing out a few people dressed in civilian clothes from the crowd, they also followed on the big ship.
After the big ship started, the people in charge of inquiring about the news changed into the special gold armor of the Royal Forest Army and came to Cao Rui’s side.
“Did you find any news?”
The first one stepped forward to report.
“Sir, I found a very bad thing, according to the information of the inquiry, this city lord is likely to be an alien.”
When he heard the news, Cao Rui’s eyes widened.
After a few breaths, he sighed deeply, and his figure also looked a little decadent.
“Alas…! It’s a pity that such a talented person is not us. ”
After speaking, his eyes also sharpened.
Appreciation is appreciation, but public and private are still clear.
Extrastellar people, whether friendly or enemy, are a great damage to the locals.
They also know that those extraterrestrial people will not stay long.
The wounds left behind are for them to continue to fill.
Even if those friendly troops were not good types, Wang Du received news more than once complaining about friendly troops.
They hated the extrastellar people immensely.
Came to the deck and took one last look at Huaibei City.
Cao Rui knew that the next time he came again, it would not be to announce the position of city lord, but to come and wipe it out.
“Alas………!!!”
