Book 2: Chapter 8: Pray for everyone
In the midst of carrying out such an urgent and important task, the fair-faced man dared to abduct a young girl on the street with just a baseless claim of being her cousin. And the target was a girl from the political family of the city.
Either the ruling class of Youguo is rotten to the core, or this person has a deep background.
Or maybe both.
Regardless of the possibilities, it represents a huge trouble that foreigners should never get involved in.
Xu Xiangqian is obviously not from Youguo. He was beaten up on the rooftop of a restaurant, which shows that he has no background in the local area.
But he still stood up.
Jiang Wang didn't want to cause trouble and had been thinking of a better solution.
But when he saw Xu Xiangqian being ignored after standing up, he couldn't stay silent.
He couldn't just watch someone being isolated and framed.
He couldn't let the person who carries the firewood freeze to death in the wind and snow!The fair-faced man tilted his head and looked at Jiang Wang, "Who are you?"
"When the road is uneven, someone will step on it. When people are treated unfairly, someone will speak up!" Jiang Wang said loudly, "I'm just a passerby who can't stand seeing you bully others!"
"I remind you to watch your words. Not all evidence can be fabricated."
"What? Are you going to arrest me too?" Jiang Wang deliberately provoked him and said loudly, "You arrest one person when someone stands up, and after arresting Xu Xiangqian, you want to arrest me too. Can you arrest everyone on this long street in front of all these people? Can you?"
He intentionally made a big fuss about the matter.
He didn't believe that even if this fair-faced young man had a deep background, he could really ignore the reputation of the entire country. With so many people watching and the capital of Youguo outside the city, could his family not have any political enemies?
As for what happens afterwards, he can just leave.
No matter how powerful you are, can the young master of Youguo extend his influence to Qiguo?
Stirring up public opinion, Jiang Wang learned this from Huang Azhan.
In the past, he might not have done this. It's not that he couldn't think of it, but he wouldn't have considered it.
"That's right!" Xu Xiangqian immediately jumped up when he saw someone supporting him, "Can you arrest everyone?"
The onlookers started to speak up.
"Is this how the officials in the upper city act?"
"Does that mean the people in the lower city are insignificant?"
"Miss Su is a good person, let her go!"
"If you have the ability, arrest me too!"
"Don't deceive the public with your words!" Seeing the surging public opinion, the fair-faced man didn't dare to underestimate it and immediately refuted Jiang Wang, "I am acting on orders to capture Yin Guan, the city lord of the twenty-seven cities, who is plotting against the country! Since this girl is his cousin, it's not inappropriate for me to bring her back for questioning. This bald scholar is spouting lies. Shouldn't we investigate? Do you think you are upholding justice? You are obstructing official duties! You are obstructing the peace and tranquility of the twenty-seven cities!"
"Nonsense!" Xu Xiangqian was extremely angry, but his focus completely deviated, "I am not a bald scholar, I have a full head of hair!"
The fair-faced man immediately gritted his teeth in anger. He had put effort into his appearance, but how could he be called a bald scholar?
But at this moment, the emotions of the onlookers were about to explode, so he could only temporarily suppress his anger.
He reluctantly said to the surrounding people, "Please calm down! I..."
But in Jiang Wang's eyes, this kind of verbal attack was completely useless.
If you call me a bald man, and I call you a feminine man, what does it accomplish?
He took a step forward.
"Get your dirty hands off!"
And pointed his finger like a sword.
Before the sword arrived, the sharpness had already pierced the skin.
The fair-faced man immediately let go and stepped back, then quickly drew a folding fan from his waist, ready to open it!
Pong.
A finger was pointed directly at him, and a flame bloomed at the fingertip.
This flower was extremely beautiful, but no one should underestimate its danger.
Jiang Wang used his other hand to bring Su Muqing behind him and casually asked, "Why weren't you at home?"
Although he wasn't familiar with Jiang Wang, they had already met twice today, and he had helped her as well.
Su Muqing said anxiously, "I was locked in my room, but I don't know why, the two maids guarding outside suddenly died! Everyone in my family is dead! I was so scared, so I ran out... I didn't think too much, I just heard them mention my cousin..."
She obviously knew that it was not the right time to mention her cousin, so she stopped herself.
On the other side, facing the flame flower, the fair-faced man held the folding fan and stopped the attack, his expression becoming serious, "Flame flower? Who exactly are you?"
He was not an ignorant playboy. While he was powerful in Youguo, he also had a certain understanding of the situation in other countries.
What Jiang Wang didn't know was that the so-called latest research of the Guodao Academy that Dong Achuan mentioned about the flame flower was just a cover-up.
Otherwise, Dong Achuan himself wouldn't have made those notes. He was also trying to complete the group of cultivators who practiced the flame flower.
When Qin and Chu were fighting each other for many years, the flame flower was one of the conditions they offered.
But this statement was not pleasant to hear, so the various academies of Zhuangguo taught their outstanding disciples the flame flower, claiming it was the research achievement of the Guodao Academy.
Qin and Chu knew each other the best after years of fighting. Besides Chu, Qin was the most familiar with the flame flower.
And for Youguo, both Qin and Chu were behemoths.
"It doesn't matter who I am." Jiang Wang didn't pay attention to Su Muqing at first, he just said to the fair-faced man, "What matters is what you are doing! Even if Yin Guan is her cousin, how can it be related to her? We all know very well that she is just an ordinary woman with no cultivation!"
"Without cultivation, you can't sell out the country. My friend, you are thinking too simplistically!" The fair-faced man said coldly, "It's precisely because people's hearts are complicated that we cannot allow you to take people away without any evidence."
"Do you really have to meddle in other people's business?" The fair-faced man lost his patience and said coldly, "Can you control the situation now and in the future?"
"What do you mean by that?" Jiang Wang's voice became louder, and he looked directly at the other person with a righteous expression, "Are you going to settle the score with a weak woman later? Seek revenge afterwards? Do you think all the fathers, elders, and fellow countrymen in the twenty-seven cities are heartless spectators, allowing you to do evil?"
All the onlookers were angry."Pretty boy, explain yourself! What do you mean?"
"Get back to your upper city!"
"You're not welcome here!"
The fair-faced man hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant! Don't believe him, he's a foreigner, his intentions are definitely different. He might be a collaborator of Yin Guan."
"Damn you!"
A chicken egg flew out from the crowd, which he hastily dodged, his voice hoarse from anger, "Who's throwing things at me?"
"It's your father!"
A rotten cabbage.
"Your grandfather!"
Another chicken egg.
"Your aunt!"
The crowd was in an uproar, boiling with excitement.
He had clearly provoked their anger.
Unable to openly attack so many of his own countrymen, he could only cover his face with a folding fan and flee in frustration.
Just then, a figure suddenly stepped out of the upper city.
Approaching from afar, with a wave of his large sleeve, he slapped the fair-faced man back to his original place, making him kneel in the middle of the crowd.
"Beast! Where are you running? Aren't you going to apologize to the elders and folks of this city?"
A white-haired, youthful-looking old man with an immortal aura strode forward, standing before the crowd.
Except for Jiang Wang and Xu Xiangqian, and the soldiers of the Negative Stele Army who were still on duty, everyone present, including the excited lower city folks, all knelt down.
They respectfully said, "National Master!"
