In the early morning of the next day, everyone in the General's Mansion had eaten their breakfast early, and under Meng Zhang's arrangement, they were ready to leave for Qingshi City.

Before leaving, Meng Zhang handed over all the affairs of the General's Mansion to Uncle Liu, and said: "During the time my wife and I are away, I will leave the General's Mansion to you to take care of. Go to the military headquarters to find Vice General Yang or Commander Yao, understand?"

Uncle Liu nodded and said: "Don't worry, General, this old slave will definitely not let anything happen to the General's House."

Only then did Meng Zhang feel relieved, and led everyone outside the mansion, and said to Ah Yue: "You and mother take the carriage, if you get tired, tell mother, okay?"

Ah Yue nodded happily, and got into the carriage with Li Jing's support.

The carriage was protected in the middle, surrounded by a few soldiers in ordinary clothes, Meng Zhang was in front of the carriage, Xiao Qianyu and Yunyun were on his left and right sides.

Meng Zhang saw that the horse in the cloud was full of energy, and he was very impressed. He said, "Where did the horse guard Yun come from?"

Yun Yun said: "I went to ride a horse at the horse farm of the Ministry of Commerce yesterday, and Mr. Cai gave it to me."

Meng Zhang looked puzzled, but immediately understood something, gave Xiao Qianyu a meaningful look, smiled and said nothing.

Qingshi City is in the south of the capital, and the distance between the two cities is less than half a day. Meng Zhang was worried about the bumps on the road, so he rode very slowly. When he arrived at Qingshi City, it was already dusk.

Meng Zhang and others entered the city and went straight to the city lord's mansion. On the way, they saw many marching and rioting teams. The officials could only stop them, but they dared not do anything to them.

Xiao Qianyu quickly looked at Meng Zhang, saw his face was livid, and said softly: "The scale is so large, and the number of participants is so large, it seems that the people in the Ministry of Political Affairs have put in a lot of effort."

Meng Zhang didn't speak, he was thinking about countermeasures in his heart, there are already so many people on the street, there must be more people in the City Lord's Mansion.

As expected, when Meng Zhang and others arrived at the city lord's mansion, the surrounding people had already blocked the city lord's mansion.

Meng Zhang had to stop, he looked at Xiao Qianyu.

Xiao Qianyu understood what he meant, and quickly stepped back a few steps to protect the front of the carriage.

Seeing the anger of those people, Meng Zhang yelled "The Meng family get out of Qingshi City" while throwing stones and rotten vegetables inside.

He suppressed his anger and shouted: "Shut up!" His voice was filled with inner strength, and everyone's voices were covered at once.

Everyone turned their heads in a panic, and when they saw Meng Zhang, they all looked puzzled.

One of them suddenly called out, "He is General Meng Zhang, the younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor."

When everyone heard this, they became frightened. After all, Meng Zhang's prestige was widely spread in the human race, and in the hearts of the people, his reputation was even more fierce than his prestige.

Everyone in the human race knows that the general Meng Zhang is a decisive and violent soldier. He once killed the rebel ministers with thunderous force, and once led the soldiers of the human race to the border of the ghost race.

It can be said that in the hearts of human soldiers, he is like a god.

And there is a big difference between him and Meng Yao, that is, what he wants to do, he will definitely do it by any means, as long as he can kill someone, he will never be soft-hearted, no matter whether the other party is a man or a woman, an old man or a child.

This is also the reason why he has offended many people, but he can still stand firm in the military. No one wants to provoke a lunatic, especially this kind of lunatic who does things recklessly.

When everyone heard that he was Meng Zhang, and saw that his face was cloudy, they didn't dare to speak for a while, but just looked at Meng Zhang anxiously.

Meng Zhang glanced at them, and said coldly: "Besieging the city lord's mansion means rebelling against the clan. Those who are light will be exiled for thousands of miles, and those who are serious will be confiscated and destroyed. Are you still not leaving?"

Everyone was startled and afraid, neither to leave nor to stay, one of them shouted: "General, City Lord Meng is plundering the people's fat and anointing, corrupting the law with corruption, you have to be the master for us."

Meng Zhang glanced at the man when he heard the words, his eyes were full of murderous intent, the man felt chills down his back, and quickly lowered his head.

Seeing this, everyone echoed, "Yes, General, you have to make the decision for us."

Meng Zhang said word by word: "It's right and wrong, I will find out for myself. If the Lord Meng really violated the clan rules, even if he is a member of the Meng family, I will deal with it according to the clan rules and will not tolerate it, but the case is still open." Before finding out, if someone wants to take the opportunity to cause trouble, Meng Zhang hereby promises that he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go."

When everyone heard Meng Zhang's threatening tone, they didn't dare to say anything anymore. They glanced at each other and then slowly dispersed.

Seeing this, the man who spoke just now was about to ask everyone to stay, but just as the words came to his lips, seeing Meng Zhang's murderous eyes, he was frightened, swallowed the words that came to his lips, and hurriedly left with everyone .

Seeing the man walk away, Meng Zhang smiled contemptuously, and said softly, "Xiao Wu."

A soldier behind responded, "I understand." Then he got off his horse and followed the man.

The guards of the City Lord's Mansion finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the surrounding people disperse. One of them quickly ran towards the mansion.

After a while, there was a rush of footsteps.

I saw a man in the lead who was over half a century old, with gray beard and hair. He was wearing a blue robe, flat cloth shoes, and a black gauze cap on his head. There were many wrinkles on his face.

He walked quickly outside the mansion, and when he saw Meng Zhang, the smile in his eyes grew stronger, and he wanted to bow and salute.

Meng Zhang hurriedly supported him, and said with a smile, "Uncle's great gift will break my nephew."

After finishing speaking, he turned to the direction of the carriage and said, "Madam, quickly bring Ah Yue to see Uncle."

Li Jing heard Meng Zhang's voice in the carriage, hurriedly took Ah Yue out of the carriage, leaned forward and said, "Li Jing has seen Uncle."

Ah Yue yelled with a smile: "Hello, Uncle!"

Old City Master Meng smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I haven't seen Ah Yue for two years, Ah Yue has grown so tall."

Meng Zhang said, "Uncle, let's talk inside."

Old City Master Meng touched his forehead and said: "Look at me, I am getting older and more and more confused, please come inside."

After speaking, he led everyone into the City Lord's Mansion.

Meng Zhang said to Old City Master Meng while walking: "Li Jing and Ah Yue have been tired all day, please uncle find a room for them to rest for a while."

Old City Lord Meng understood, and hurriedly ordered a few servant girls to take Li Jing and Ah Yue aside, while he continued to lead them to the hall.

When they arrived at the hall, after everyone sat down as the guest of honor, Old City Master Meng took the lead to ask: "Xiao Zhang, you are coming to Qingshi City this time, not just to visit me, right?"

Meng Zhang smiled and said, "My nephew hasn't visited my uncle for a long time, and Ah Yue also misses you a little bit, so I came here, just to take care of some small things along the way."

Old City Master Meng sighed, and said: "Small matter? This matter is not small at all. A little carelessness will arouse public anger and the consequences will be disastrous. The people behind the layout know that we dare not send troops to suppress it, so they are unscrupulous Inciting the people in the city to make trouble."

Meng Zhang said: "It turns out that uncle already knew that there was someone behind this incident."

The old city owner Meng said with emotion: "I have been the city owner for more than ten years, so I naturally know that this matter cannot be so simple. Qingshi City was taken back from the hands of the ghost clan. Never dare to gather crowds to make trouble, let alone besiege the General’s Mansion, someone must be manipulating it behind the scenes.”

Meng Zhang sneered and said, "The people are ignorant, just find out who is behind it."

Xiao Qianyu asked: "But General, you showed up right after you arrived here. If those people are more cautious, wouldn't it be more difficult to find them?"

Meng Zhang said: "I just want to let them know that I am coming. The more panicked they are, the more likely they are to make mistakes, and the easier it is for us to investigate the case. This trick is called knocking the mountain to shake the tiger and lure the snake out of the hole."

The old city lord Meng nodded, looked at Xiao Qianyu and Yunyun, and looked at the soldiers standing outside the hall, and asked in doubt: "But, you brought only these few people, can you investigate the case clearly? To provoke such a incident, the forces behind it must be no small matter. I know the ability of the young city lord, but this one?"

Seeing that Yun was wearing the iron mask of the dark guard, he thought to himself that since he was a dark guard, his martial arts skills should not be too bad, but he still looked at Yun with suspicion for a while.

Meng Zhang smiled and said, "Uncle, Yun Huwei doesn't know martial arts."

"what?"

Old City Lord Meng was startled, and said, "The dark guard doesn't know martial arts? What's going on? Then Xiaozhang, what's your intention of bringing him by your side?"

Meng Zhang didn't answer him, but said to Yun, "Guard Yun, show your weapon to my uncle."

Hearing the words, Yunyun took the Hanlu from his back and handed it to Old City Lord Meng. Since his right hand could not hold the Hanlu, he only carried a handle of Hanlu on his body during this trip.

When Old City Master Meng saw Han Lu, he was startled for a moment, and then reached out to take it. The moment Yun let go of his hand, he felt a huge force sinking down.

He hurriedly mobilized his internal strength to catch Han Lu, and said with a shocked expression: "Han Lu?"

Meng Zhang nodded and said, "Yun Huwei doesn't know martial arts, but he can pick up cold dew. Uncle understands what I mean, right?"

Old City Lord Meng glanced at Xiao Qianyu in disbelief, seeing her expressionless face, he handed Hanlu back to Yun's hand, and said with a smile: "He can pick up Hanlu without knowing martial arts. It seems that Guard Yun's talent is extraordinary. If If you practice diligently, you will become a great weapon in the future."

Yun Yun was a little embarrassed by the praise, so he took Han Lu back and sat down.

Meng Zhang continued: "There is still a dark guard battalion in Qingshi City. The young city master and I will take the dark guard battalion into action. Madam and Ah Yue will have Uncle Lao. There is one more thing."

After Meng Zhang finished speaking, he said in a low voice, "The guard Yun can cure Ah Yue's illness. Uncle Lao will add a bed and a screen to Ah Yue's room."

Old City Lord Meng was startled at first, then smiled and said, "Xiaozhang, you brought the cloud guards here, are there some puzzles you want to find the answer to?"

Meng Zhang smiled and said, "Uncle's guess is right. The third thing my nephew did when he came to Qingshi City was to find the answer about Yun Huwei from his uncle."
