Chapter 81 True Colors

"You are so bold that you don't dismount when you see His Highness King Yan, Yuan Zhoumu, you are going too far!"

When Zhao Xu was thinking about it, Chang Wei gave a loud shout, which sounded like thunder.

Naturally, he could tell that Yuan Li came with bad intentions.

Seeing him being so rude, I immediately became angry.

Before Yuan Li could speak, a tall cavalry general rode out and shouted: "Who are you? How dare you disrespect Yuan Zhoumu and seek death?"

When Yuan Li saw this, he did not reprimand the cavalry general, but showed a slightly proud look.

"I think you are looking for death!" Chang Wei glanced at the cavalry general without any fear. The two glared at each other, as if they were about to start a fight if they disagreed.

Zhao Xu sneered in his heart, now there was no doubt that Yuan Li came here to find trouble.

And the only thing that made Yuan Lifa so popular recently was the Qingfengkou incident.

"Yuanzhou Mu, if you come to Yan County as a guest, I welcome you, but if you think that you can slight me because of your Yuan family's power in Yanzhou, you are wrong." What Zhao Xu said before was relatively gentle. In the end, it suddenly worsened.

His words trailed off.

Suddenly there was a sound of neat footsteps.

The sound of footsteps gradually increased from light to heavy, like muffled thunder.

The royal soldiers poured out from all the streets like a torrent of silver metal and stopped behind Zhao Xu.

Yuan Li was shocked.

These soldiers of King Yan are all wearing sophisticated armor, which is very different from the simple equipment when he came last time.

He also remembered that King Yan's army had wiped out all the Beidi ambushes and Qingfeng Village bandits. Their combat power seemed to be impressive, and he did not dare to look down upon them.

"Hahaha..." Yuan Li laughed, then got off his horse and said to Zhao Xu: "I came here in a hurry, but I forgot my etiquette for a moment. I hope Your Highness will not blame you."

When the cavalry general saw Yuan Li dismounting, he returned to the queue, but still cast a provocative look at Chang Wei.

Chang Wei showed no signs of weakness.

"Since Yuan Zhoumu has said so, why should I care about it anymore?" Zhao Xu said calmly.

Yuan Li clearly wanted to intimidate him, but he didn't want to just accept it.

The surname of Da Song Jiangshan is Zhao, not Yuan.

"Hahaha..." Yuan Li laughed again, but there was a hint of ferocity in his eyes from time to time.

He said: "Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Highness. In that case, please allow me to enter the city to investigate the case."

"Investigation? What case?" Zhao Xu was unmoved. He wanted to see what Yuan Li was up to.

Yuan Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt that he had misjudged King Yan.

The last time he came, King Yan had a kind attitude, and he thought he was soft-tempered.

Only today did he realize that this King Yan was a tough one.

But no matter what, since he came to Yan County, how could he return empty-handed?

"Xiaoguan found that Tianxiang Tower in Yancheng is related to the case. All the people involved are to be taken to Fan Yang. I hope His Highness will not obstruct it. After all, Xianguan is the shepherd of Yanzhou. This is the responsibility of Xianguan." Yuan Lidao.

"Tianxiang Tower?" Zhao Xu's eyes circled Yuan Li's face.

This time Qingfeng's oral incident was because someone was using Tianxiang Tower to trick him.

Xu E also made it clear that her spy in Qingfeng Village was exposed.

Now Yuan Li bluntly said that he wants to take Tianxiang Tower. Obviously someone wants to deal with Tianxiang Tower.

And this person is either from the Yuan family, the Zhang family, or Beidi.

But no matter who it is, he won't let it go his way.

"What a coincidence. I am also investigating this matter. Many prisoners were captured this time. Their confessions are quite interesting. They include information about the Zhang family, Beidi, and..." Zhao Xu was half-truthful. Falsely speaking.

Yuan Li's face became increasingly ugly, and he turned pale and asked in surprise, "What else is it about?"

"Ha, why is Yuan Zhoumu so nervous?" Zhao Xu said with a smile.

Yuan Li realized his gaffe and looked embarrassed, "Since His Highness is investigating, I am relieved. I just hope that Your Highness will not listen to some slanderous rumors."

"That's natural, so I ask Yuan Zhoumu not to listen to the slander. This king of Tianxiang Tower can still be trusted." Zhao Xu said with his hands behind his hands.

Yuan Li realized now that King Yan was in Baotian Xiang Tower.

If he took Tianxianglou without any evidence, King Yan himself might embarrass him with these unsubstantiated confessions.

"Hahaha, since His Highness is investigating, I can rest assured." Yuan Liqiang smiled, "I won't bother you anymore."

After that, he bowed, mounted his horse and led the troops away.

It's just that maybe I'm holding my breath and have nowhere to vent it.

He led the cavalry instead of returning along the official road immediately, but walked around the city, with the intention of demonstrating.

Zhao Xu climbed up the city wall and looked at the cavalry passing by like the wind with envy and solemnity.

No wonder Zhao Heng responded positively as soon as he contacted him.

Even though he indulged in pleasure, the emperor was not without any brains.

The Yuan family in Yanzhou has grown so much that no one can stop it anymore.

The imperial court could no longer control such an important place as Yanzhou.

By then, Dasong's safety will be in the hands of the Yuan family.

This is intolerable to any emperor.

"Your Highness, this Yuan Li is too arrogant." Chang Wei was still angry.

"With strong soldiers and strong horses, he naturally has crazy abilities." Zhao Xu said.

Xu Lie was a little worried, "Your Highness has offended him, and I'm afraid that he will target Your Highness everywhere in the future."

Zhao Xu smiled and said, "You are wrong. If a newborn tiger cub is in your home, you will not have any worries, but it will be different if an adult tiger is here."

"It's because His Highness is getting stronger and stronger and can no longer hide it." Chang Wei said bluntly.

After all, more than 20,000 well-equipped guards cannot be hidden.

The business of Prince Yan's Mansion is getting bigger and bigger, and it cannot be hidden.

Xu Lie nodded silently. Prince Yan is indeed no longer the weak and crazy prince.

"Take the troops back to the camp. After a while, it is estimated that every soldier in the personal army will have a set of armor." Zhao Xu said.

Chang Wei was happy to hear this. This is their confidence.

...

Zhangjiawubao.

Zhang Kang waited at the gate of the fort.

After sending a secret letter to the Yuan family, he returned to the fort in the countryside from the city.

Just now, a cavalryman came to report that Yuan Li was coming.

After waiting for a while, he saw dust rising on the road in the distance.

Not long after, a black mass of cavalry arrived.

The leader was Yuan Li.

"Yue..."

"Waste!" When he arrived in front of Zhang Kang, Yuan Li raised his whip and whipped him without waiting for Zhang Kang to speak.

Zhang Kang screamed, covered his face, and blood flowed from his fingers.

Yuan Li was still angry, pointing at the whip and scolding: "This is a lesson for you. If you make such a stupid mistake again, you will no longer be the son-in-law of my Yuan family."

"Yes, yes, father-in-law." Zhang Kang was furious.

Tuoba Lie's whipping had made him feel aggrieved, and he didn't expect Yuan Li to humiliate him in front of everyone.

But he didn't dare to get angry, and still looked submissive.

"Yanzhou is the forbidden meat of my Yuan family. How can I let the child of the King of Yan sleep here? Remember, there can be no mistakes in the autumn hunt, otherwise you will lose your head."

After saying that, Yuan Li did not dismount, and led his troops away directly.

Zhang Kang felt bitter, the King of Yan, it was the King of Yan again.

Yuan Li looked like this, I'm afraid he didn't get any benefits from the King of Yan.
