Chapter 480
Tianlong Empire, Yunxiang City, in the hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Li Feng, the eldest prince asked you to release Liu Qi without guilt. Can you do this?" A fat, duck-voiced, gorgeously dressed man stared coldly at the city lord Li Feng in front of him.
He was the butler Wang Gonggong beside the eldest prince.
Beside Wang Gonggong, there were two cultivators guarding.
Not far away, there were boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, which were all used to bribe the city lord Li Feng.
However, Li Feng ignored it at all.
Li Feng sat in the main seat in the hall, put down the teacup in his hand, and said indifferently: "The emperor is guilty of the same crime as the common people. Even the eldest prince's people cannot make trouble in Yunxiang City."
"Haha, Li Feng, I won't say much to you. This is the eldest prince's intention. You should know the eldest prince's temper. I hope you don't regret your decision." The warning in Wang Gonggong's tone is self-evident.
After Wang Gonggong finished speaking, he turned around and left without saying anything else.
Li Feng watched them leave calmly, his face calm.
He knew that Wang Gonggong was threatening him. If he really dared to kill the eldest prince's people, he would have only one end - death.
If he made the 'right' choice, he would not only be fine, but also get a lot of property.
Those boxes of gold, silver and jewelry were left by Wang Gonggong.
"Wang Gonggong, how is it?"
Outside the city lord's mansion, a middle-aged man who was also dressed gorgeously and looked like an aristocrat saw Wang Gonggong coming out and hurried forward to ask about the situation.
He was Liu Chong, the eldest prince's brother-in-law.
However, Liu Chong's son was arrested because he raped a girl recently and killed this family of civilians.
Now the evidence is conclusive and he will be executed the next day.
As a last resort, Liu Chong could only come to the eldest prince for help.
Fortunately, the eldest prince and his sister happened to be in Yunxiang City. They originally wanted to go to Xuantian Sect, so they came to see it on the way.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to deal with this matter.
"Don't worry, Li Feng will make the right choice. If Li Feng really dares to do something to your son, then his death is coming." Eunuch Wang snorted disdainfully, flicked his sleeves and got on the carriage.
Seeing this, Liu Chong could only grit his teeth and follow.
He also understood that since Eunuch Wang said so, there should be no problem.
As a result, the next day, Liu Chong's son Liu Qi was beheaded by Li Feng.
Liu Chong, who learned the bad news, was shocked and desperate, and his wife fainted directly.
The news reached Eunuch Wang, and naturally angered Eunuch Wang.
"Bang!"
Eunuch Wang was very angry and said, "Li Feng, you dare not take my words to heart. I will go to the eldest prince and punish you."
Eunuch Wang told the eldest prince the news.
Liu happened to be beside her. After hearing it, she was frightened and turned pale. Then she cried and said, "Your Highness, you have to make a decision for me! Woohoo, my brother has only one son. This damn Li Feng is going to make my Liu family extinct!"
The eldest prince was also furious and said, "Humph, Eunuch Wang, send someone to jail Li Feng and his family. Don't let any of them go. Arrest them all for me."
"Yes, Your Highness the First Prince!"
Not long after, Li Feng was jailed for killing Liu Qi. His family members were also imprisoned.
When the news came out, the whole Yunxiang City was shocked. On the one hand, they admired Li Feng for his integrity and fearlessness; on the other hand, they felt that Li Feng's efforts were not worth it.
"Alas, our poor city lord, this is miserable."
"Yes, he didn't have to come forward for the affairs of old man Sun's family."
"Old man Sun's family is also pitiful. His daughter was raped and the family was exterminated. Fortunately, we met our city lord Li to do justice for them."
"But, City Lord Li will also sacrifice his entire family for this. Is it really worth it?"
The people in the city all felt sorry and unworthy for Li Feng's affairs.
Although they also longed for a city lord who could do justice for everyone, in some cases, they hoped that Li Feng would compromise.
But Li Feng did not.
This made them feel sorry and desperate for the future.
After Li Taihang came to Yunxiang City, he happened to hear what the people were discussing, so he curiously asked about it.
After learning about what happened, Li Taihang felt that Li Feng was okay. Although he was a bit dull, he was at least upright.
If he became the law enforcement elder of their Xuantian Sect, I'm afraid everyone in the sect would be afraid of this ruthless man.
He would rather offend the eldest prince than beWho wouldn't be afraid of a ruthless person who would exterminate the whole family and resolutely enforce the law to the end?
Li Taihang suddenly admired Li Feng a little.
"Yes, this person is very good, save him when the time comes."
After Li Taihang learned about the situation here, the soldiers were also mobilized by the eldest prince to go to the city lord's mansion.
The entire city lord's mansion is about to face a catastrophe.
And Li Feng was well prepared, knowing that after doing this, the city lord's mansion would be liquidated by the eldest prince.
So he drove away all the guards in his home.
Now, only he and his family are left.
Although his family wanted to leave, they couldn't leave.
After all, it would be difficult for them to leave Yunxiang City with the order of the eldest prince.
"Dad, I, I don't want to die." The youngest son looked at Li Feng with tears on his face.
Li Feng and his family were all in the hall.
"Alas." Li Feng sighed and said, "I can only blame myself, Li Feng, for being born at the wrong time, and causing great harm to my wife and children."
At this moment, a large number of soldiers poured into the City Lord's Mansion.
"Are they here?"
As a result, Li Feng discovered that the people who came were not the soldiers of the eldest prince, but the guards of the City Lord's Mansion who were driven away by him.
"Why are you back?"
"Lord City Lord, we are willing to guard the City Lord's Mansion. If the eldest prince wants to kill you, he must step over our bodies."
Li Feng was startled and cursed, "Nonsense, leave here quickly, and leave from the back door before the eldest prince's people come."
"No, Lord City Lord, it's too late."
Although they were driven out by Li Feng before, they knew that Li Feng didn't want to implicate them.
However, over the years, it was precisely because of Li Feng's existence that the lives of the people in the entire Yunxiang City became better and better.
Li Feng is a good official who truly serves the country and the people.
Now that the eldest prince wants to deal with him, the guards will naturally not give up.
At this time, many people emerged outside the city lord's mansion. They stood in front of the city lord's mansion one by one, not wanting the eldest prince's soldiers to get close.
When the eldest prince's soldiers came here, they saw this scene and were at a loss for a moment.
So they quickly reported the matter.
After the eldest prince learned about this, he was furious and said, "Eunuch Wang, you go and deal with this matter yourself. If things don't work out, you don't have to come to see me."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Eunuch Wang had a fierce look on his face, and he came to the city lord's mansion with a group of guards.
When he saw the people outside the city lord's mansion, he was immediately very surprised.
"This damn Li Feng is so supported by the people?" Eunuch Wang was a little surprised.
However, the mission still had to be completed, so he glared at the people with fierce eyes and said, "You lowly people, get out of my house right now, don't stop me from catching the traitor, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
"Eunuch Wang, let the city lord go, he did nothing wrong."
"Yes, Eunuch Wang, you can't do this."
For a moment, many people knelt down and pleaded with Eunuch Wang.
Eunuch Wang was stunned. He didn't expect these people to do this?
This made Eunuch Wang a little embarrassed.
However, thinking of the words of the eldest prince, he gritted his teeth and said, "I am also following orders. I hope you don't embarrass me. Otherwise, your behavior is treason. If you are not afraid of death, then think about your family."
"If you commit a crime, your family will definitely not escape the relationship." Eunuch Wang is a smart man after all, and he quickly explained the seriousness of the matter to these people.
However, the people who could come here were all Li Feng's benefactors.
Therefore, although some people were persuaded, the vast majority of people still knelt there, motionless.
"Good, very good! In this case, don't blame us for killing you traitors."
"Come here."
Eunuch Wang shouted.
"Here."
"Give me..." Eunuch Wang was about to give an order to kill these people.
"Stop."
At this time, Li Feng came out.
Eunuch Wang looked up at him.
"Eunuch Wang, this matter was done by me, Li. Everyone has his own responsibility. I hope Eunuch Wang will not blame others."
"Lord City Lord."
When Eunuch Wang saw Li Feng, he immediately showed joy.
In fact, Eunuch Wang did not want to kill these people unless it was absolutely necessary.
If he really killed them, his reputation and that of the eldest prince would definitely be hit.
Therefore, the best solution to this matter is to let Li Feng compromise.
"Very good, Li Feng, youHe is a smart man, but why did he offend the eldest prince? "
Eunuch Wang stared at Li Feng coldly and said, "Now, Li Feng, can you plead guilty?"
"If you want to accuse someone, you can always find a pretext. Li is innocent. Since you have determined that Li is guilty, what else can I say?" Li Feng said sarcastically.
Anyway, as long as he does these people, he doesn't care about anything else.
"Hahaha, good, Li Feng, I hope you can still be so righteous in prison." A cold light flashed in Eunuch Wang's eyes.
At that time, he will put all the charges on Li Feng, and if Li Feng wants to deny it, he will use his family and these people as an excuse, and he is not afraid that Li Feng will not surrender.
