Chapter 1015 The Xue Family Royal Family

Yi Shuihan said goodbye to Zhou Ran and Yang Daoming, and left the secret room, following Yi An outside.

After coming out, Yi Shuihan asked: "Yi An, are those refugees coming to attack the city again?"

"No." Yi An shook his head, "Lord City Lord, when you brought these two people back just now, I already noticed that one of them is not an ordinary person, but the Lord of the State, right?"

"What does it have to do with you?"

Yi Shuihan was a little angry. Yi An actually lied to him. His goal was the Lord of the Ming State who had fled thousands of miles to Huangsha City.

Yi An refused to give in and continued, "Lord City Lord, don't be confused! In the current Ming Kingdom, it is not the King who has the final say, but the General! The General has already got a warrant, the King is dead, and all those who claim to be the King are all imposters! The General's meaning is very clear, that is, to let all the city lords express their opinions. If they do not obey, I am afraid that Huangsha City will send troops to the border! Even if the Five Stars Army of Ming Kingdom is not good, its combat power is ten times that of refugees!"

"What do you mean?"

Yi Shuihan's face sank, and he did not stop the housekeeper from continuing.

Yi An got Yi Shuihan's approval, and said, "Lord City Lord, if we harbor the King, the entire Huangsha City will be in vain! But in other words, if we make good use of this, kill the King, and use his head to ask for credit from the General, we will definitely get the General's reward, and glory and wealth are just around the corner!"

"You want me to kill the king?"

Yi Shuihan hesitated.

Even if Yi An was right, if he really did it, he would not get any benefit.

General Hou wanted to kill the king, but if he did it himself, he would have a lot of trouble in the future, and he might even become the general's abandoned son to appease the people.

In the territory of Ming, everyone wanted to please the general, but the general was moody and had few true confidants.

"Lord City Lord, if you don't make a decision, you will suffer from the chaos. You must think twice!"

Yi An knelt in front of Yi Shuihan and kept begging.

At this moment, a sword energy shot out from the secret room and hit Yi An's head squarely.

The housekeeper of the City Lord's Mansion, who had just been talking nonstop, fell in a pool of blood.

Yi Shuihan was immediately terrified. What happened just now? Why did the sword energy shoot out from the secret room and kill Yi An with one blow.

Did someone hear what Yi An said? But from such a distance, how could Zhou Ran and Yang Daoming know?

This person was very powerful, and his sword energy just hit Yi An. He was only half a foot away from Yi An, so it was easy for this person to kill him.

Yi Shuihan felt his legs trembling, and he returned to the secret room.

In the secret room, Zhou Ran used his strength, but did not retract it into his body.

Yi Shuihan looked at Zhou Ran and was so scared that he could not speak.

Zhou Ran's strength had reached the realm of Yuhua, and the strength of his true energy was not much different from that of a fairy.

Yang Daoming, the Lord of Ming, looked at a loss and said, "Marquis Guanjun, what did you do just now? Why did you suddenly release the sword energy?"

Zhou Ran did not answer Yang Daoming. Seeing Yi Shuihan coming in, he looked at the Lord of Huangsha City with a cold look.

"The wind just passed some words over, and I happened to hear them. Lord Yi, I hope I didn't kill the wrong person!"

Zhou Ran's words scared Yi Shuihan so much that he didn't dare to sit down.

This guy is too scary. He killed his housekeeper without any hesitation. If he wanted to kill me, it would be like killing an ant.

Yi Shuihan was somewhat glad that he did not express his opinion in front of Yi An.

If he had nodded slightly at that time, he might have ended up like Yi An.

Yang Daoming looked at all this in astonishment, not knowing what Zhou Ran was talking about.

Zhou Ran slowly took back his strength and said, "Lord Yi, I came to Huangsha City not to fight for power and profit, but if someone is playing tricks at this time, I will not let him go."

Although it was just a few short sentences, it made Yi Shuihan feel great pressure.

The strongest man in Ming State is General Hou Bufan, who is at the fourth level of Yuhua, but Zhou Ran's strength is obviously better than that of the general.

With such a strong man accompanying the Lord, it is not impossible to seize power from the general.

If I choose to follow the Lord at this moment, and the Lord takes back the power of Ming State in the future, I will naturally be able to rise to the top.

Thinking of this, Yi Shuihan immediately knelt down in front of Yang Daoming.

"Lord, please rest assured. I, Yi Shuihan, will follow you from now on and serve you without any extravagant thoughts!"

Yang Daoming was a little surprised that the Lord of Huangsha City expressed his loyalty in front of him.

But since Yi Shuihan wanted to join him, he would certainly not refuse.

"Lord Yi, please get up!" Yang Daoming helped Yi Shuihan up. "The most urgent matter is not the grudge between me and the general, but the great disaster of the entire southern border!"

"Great disaster? Could it be the Sword Sect?" Yi Shuihan also guessed what the Lord meant.

Yang Daoming nodded and continued, "That's exactly it! As we all know, the Sword Sect dominates the southern border, and the three kingdoms in the southern border are suffering, but they can't resist! The reason is the sword formation set up by the Sword Sect in the southern border. If the sword formation is not broken, the southern border will never have peace! In order to break the formation, we must find the descendants of the previous king. The Xue family was sealed in Huangsha City. As time went by, the Xue family also lost power and no longer controlled Huangsha City, but became an ordinary person! Guanjun Hou and I want to find the descendants of the Xue family!"

"A member of the Xue family?" Yi Shuihan said with a bitter look on his face. "After so many years, where can I find the descendants of the Xue family? I have been in charge of Huangsha City for decades. The city lord before me was not named Xue, and the city lord before that was not named Xue. I really don't know where to start. Look for it! There are quite a few people named Xue in Huangsha City. I wonder if there are any clues here."

With that said, Yi Shuihan ordered someone to bring the household registration books of Huangsha City residents.

The thick household register is full of names.

Yang Daoming flipped through the household registration book carefully and frowned involuntarily.

Finding a person named Xue among so many names and determining whether he is a descendant of the Xue family's royal family is like finding a needle in a haystack, which is completely useless.

"Champion Hou, what do you think?"

Yang Daoming asked Zhou Ran what he meant.

Zhou Ran thought for a while and then said: "Time is urgent and there is no choice at all. It is better to investigate one household at a time! All the people with the surname Xue in the household registration book must trace their ancestors and trace their roots back three generations. Although it is troublesome Some, but it’s the only feasible way!”

"yes!".

Yi Shuihan immediately took the order.

Now that the war is in chaos, it is really a thankless task for the city lord's palace to investigate the three generations of the city residents.
