When Duan Zhixuan and his party were about to enter the city gate, they were stopped by the inspecting guards.
The guards and servants brought by Duan Zhixuan were completely furious when they saw a small soldier and dared to stop his prince.
One of the guards picked up the soldier's collar and yelled: "You dare to stop me, my lord, are you looking for death?"
The city guard was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized and shouted: "I don't care who you are, as long as a large convoy enters the city, it must be inspected. This is a rule. If you dare to disobey law enforcement, you can be killed on the spot."
The guard laughed angrily and said arrogantly: "What if we don't accept inspection? A small soldier dares to openly defy the Duke of the country. This is the following crime and should be beaten!"
As he spoke, he slapped the soldier on the face several times.
The people Duan Zhixuan brought were all fierce soldiers who had fought with him on the battlefield, and they beat the defenders black and blue with just a few slaps.
This moment made the passersby dumbfounded.
In Huating County, they dared to openly beat the soldiers guarding the city. Are these people looking for death?
Suddenly, the people of Huating County gathered around him.
Nowadays, people in Huating County are united, and bullying of the weak by the strong is rare.
Now that Duan Zhixuan and his entourage dared to beat the gatekeepers, some brave people came out and accused them: "Who are you, how can you beat people casually?"
"Yes, this is Huating County. How dare you bully the weak? You can't let them go!"
"Yes, no matter who they are, they must abide by the rules here when they come to Huating County. If they dare to show off their power in front of Huating County, we will not agree."
"Yes! This is the Governor's territory. Whoever dares to break the rules will not be allowed."
The onlookers were very angry and accused the guard who beat him.
The guard was shocked when he saw so many people gathered around him and some people kept asking questions.
Xin said, it seems that Yang Fan manages this place very well.
The little city gate soldier was beaten, but he got the support of so many people.
But when I think about the fact that the Duke of my country is the long history appointed by His Majesty, I naturally feel confident and fearless.
Therefore, instead of being afraid, the guard who hit the person yelled: "Why did I just hit someone? Don't you dare to do it? If you don't accept it, I will bear it. Whoever dares to scream again, I will make you look good!"
There were dozens of guards accompanying Duan Zhixuan, and they all swarmed forward.
This scene immediately shocked the onlookers.
They didn't expect that someone would dare to be so tyrannical in Huating County.
Looking at this group of people, there are hundreds of carriages, and Duan Zhixuan and others are dressed in rich clothes.
The onlookers felt guilty and naturally did not dare to question him again.
Of course, although everyone did not dare to say harsh words, they did not give up their position.
For a while, the two sides were in a stalemate.
Duan Zhixuan was already very angry, but when he saw this group of melon-eating people, they dared to surround them and not let them go.
So he waved his hand impatiently: "Don't bother, drive all these people away. If there is resistance, just beat them to death."
"promise!"
Now that the master has spoken, the people under his command will naturally comply with it.
Besides, when they came here and were despised by Yang Fan, everyone was filled with anger.
Upon hearing the order, dozens of guards swarmed forward with grinning faces, punching and kicking the person who had just questioned them.
These guards are all brave soldiers who have experienced battles for a long time. How can a group of ordinary people be opponents?
Fortunately, these guards still had scruples in their hearts and did not beat people to death directly.
Even so, there were screams at the city gate.
At this moment, the ground shook like an earthquake.
Looking up, it turned out that hundreds of soldiers holding swords were running towards the city gate.
These people have neat steps and are full of energy. They don't look like ordinary soldiers.
Seeing these people appear, the eyes of the soldiers and civilians who had just been beaten couldn't help but light up.
This is the city's law enforcement team, and the savior has finally arrived.
As a result, everyone cheered and swarmed behind these people.
The guard who hit him felt guilty.
No matter how brave and capable they are, they are only a few dozen people.
There were hundreds of people on the other side, all of them armed with weapons.
The most important thing is that these people are full of energy and are not easy characters to deal with at first glance.
Besides, they didn't dare to use weapons.
Once someone is killed with a knife, not even Duan Zhixuan can protect them.
You know, this is Yang Fan's territory.
At this time Zhixuan was also a little confused.
He felt like he was in a trap.
Because it's such a coincidence.
Frowning, Duan Zhixuan asked: "This is the new Chief of the Governor's Office, Shi. Which of you is the chief officer?"
"This gang of rioters deliberately prevented me from entering the city. Why don't we arrest them quickly?"
Hearing Duan Zhixuan's words, the people who had just come out to stop him looked at each other one by one, and even shrank their heads in fear.
Chief Governor Shi?
Wouldn’t that be the future second-in-command in Huating County?
If you offend this person today, won't you be prone to retaliation in the future?
Generally speaking, even the governor would not fight against a current prince on their behalf.
What's more important is that this guy is Chang Shi sent by the emperor.
For a moment, the people who participated in the obstruction were panicked and didn't know what to do.
Fortunately, these patrol members did not kowtow to the visitors, and everyone could not help but secretly heave a sigh of relief.
At least the purpose is safety.
These people didn't back down when they saw that they had announced their status.
Duan Zhixuan was really angry and yelled: "You actually don't listen to Shangguan's orders. Do you believe that I will tell you all to get out after I take office?"
At this moment, a lazy voice floated from behind.
"This is my territory, and these soldiers are also my soldiers. Who is so shameless as to tell my soldiers to get out?"
Hearing this, Duan Zhixuan's men were stunned and couldn't believe their ears.
Who is so brave and dares to call the prince of his own country shameless? Is this looking for death?
But the people present were extremely happy.
Everyone knows that the members of the patrol team are carefully selected from the Navy, and they are equivalent to the private soldiers of Governor Yang Fan.
It seems that the governor of my family has arrived!
As a result, everyone finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
In their view, the governor would not use himself or others to pay for the sin because of the other party's power.
However, it is too awesome to think that the governor dared to call the current prince shameless!
Duan Zhixuan couldn't help but be stunned.
I thought I misheard the tinnitus.
Are you so brave that you dare to scold yourself?
Just when he was about to retaliate, he saw the group of soldiers flashing out of a passage.
A young man walked slowly up the passage with his hands behind his back.
Ha, this is not who Yang Fan is.
Duan Zhixuan gritted his teeth as he looked at the person coming.
Even if this guy crippled his two sons, he could recognize Yang Fan even after he turned into ashes.
The people present seemed to have seen their backer, and their backs suddenly straightened up, and they all shouted: "Grand Governor, these people refused to accept inspection. They not only beat the gatekeepers, but also us. They are simply lawless. You have to give them to me." It’s up to you guys to decide!”
In an instant, the whole scene was in chaos.
Yang Fan raised his hand and pressed it down, and he suddenly became quiet.
Seeing that the beaten soldiers' faces were covered in blood and that many civilians were also injured, Yang Fan asked with an extremely ugly face: "Who beat you?"
"That's the group of people."
As he said that, everyone pointed at the group of guards next to Duan Zhixuan.
Seeing that Yang Fan dared to turn a blind eye to him and instead wanted to hold him responsible, Duan Zhixuan frowned and said, "I was appointed by Your Majesty to serve as the chief historian of the Governor's Mansion. When I entered the city, I was blocked by these unreasonable soldiers, so I took action. Taught a lesson..."
According to his official position, he is shorter than Yang Fan.
In terms of title, Duan Zhixuan is much higher than Yang Fan.
This situation is extremely rare in the court.
Although he felt that Yang Fan couldn't do anything to him, he still had to explain.
The most important thing is that he felt that he had fallen into Yang Fan's trap.
Because Yang Fan came by such a coincidence.
He didn't come early, he didn't come late, he just showed up after hitting someone. At this time, Zhixuan was really flustered.
Looking sideways at Duan Zhixuan, Yang Fan asked without giving up any dignity: "I'm asking who hit him and why?"
Hearing this, Duan Zhixuan's face suddenly became clouded and became extremely ugly.
But he still held back his anger and clasped his fists again and said: "Grand Governor, today I am here to fulfill my long term..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yang Fan.
I saw Yang Fan asking in a cold voice: "Don't you understand the human language? I'm asking who hit you, not who you are."
Such disrespectful words made Duan Zhixuan's face instantly turn blood red, and veins popped out on his forehead.
He felt that Yang Fan was too arrogant.
It was obvious that he was trying to intimidate him.
He knew Yang Fan's temperament well and knew that this kid was very difficult to deal with.
If you meet head-on, you may fall into this guy's plan.
After taking a few deep breaths, Duan Zhixuan could only suppress his raging anger and explained: "We entered the city normally, but these gatekeepers actually wanted to check, but it was the following criminals."
"And these unruly people deliberately obstructed and made noise, so I asked my servants to expel them, and asked the Governor to make the decision for me!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately became angry and filled with indignation for a while.
"This person is so shameless. He doesn't even dare to tell the truth. It's really embarrassing."
"Bah! He dares to come to Huating County to be the chief historian. Is he worthy?"
"It's really abominable. If you don't accept the examination, you bite back. It's so bad!"
Everyone was a little frightened by Duan Zhixuan's reputation just now.
Now Yang Fan is here, and it seems that he wants to safeguard justice, and he accuses Duan Zhixuan and his party.
Duan Zhixuan's lungs were about to explode when he heard these common people speaking dirty words and saying that he was worthless!
He is the Duke of the country, and although he is in a state of decline, he is not something that these little people can discuss.
If Yang Fan hadn't been there, he would have wanted these guards to kill all of these people to relieve the hatred in his heart!
At this time, Yang Fan seemed to already know the ins and outs of the matter. He raised his arms again to silence the scene, and asked with an expressionless face: "Did your men attack first?"
Seeing that Yang Fan refused to give him face again and again, Duan Zhixuan said angrily: "Yang Fan, others are afraid of you, but I am not afraid of you. I am an official personally appointed by His Majesty, and I am the Duke of the current dynasty. Neither do you." The right to point fingers in front of me."
"These people dare to stop us from entering the city. They deserve to be beaten. What can you do to us if you beat them?"
Yang Fan's face darkened: "Haha, what a great official power."
"I am the Governor of Jiangnan Province, and I have the power to open a government office. Not to mention you as a prince, even His Highness the King of Wei must keep his peace. Since you admit to beating people..."
"Someone is coming!"
Yang Fan shouted: "Take down all these people!"
"promise!"
Behind them, Zhai Changsun and Xi Jun bought the order and rushed forward with their soldiers to capture the man.
Duan Zhixuan held up a bright yellow scroll and shouted: "I have the Holy Spirit in my hand, who dares to touch it?"
Zhai Changsun and Xi Junmai were stunned, subconsciously stopped and looked back at Yang Fan.
This is an imperial edict!
Who dares to make a slight move? Isn’t this just like rebellion?
Yang Fan was slightly stunned.
It seems that Li Er was really afraid that he would not give Duan Zhixuan face, so he made such an imperial edict.
But he finally made a name for himself in Huating County, and now Duan Zhixuan wants to come here to pick peaches.
How can there be such a good thing in the world?
But Li Er sent Duan Zhixuan here. Isn't this just a way to attract hatred?
Although Li Er may have had his own reasons, Yang Fan would not give in so easily.
Of course, if it were someone else who came, Yang Fan might be a little thinner so as not to go too far.
But since the fight between him and Duan Zhixuan was already considered to be a fight to the death, why did he still need to take pride into consideration?
Ever since Duan Zhixuan had two sons, there was no possibility of reconciliation between him and the Duan family.
In this case, Yang Fan certainly does not need to give Duan Zhixuan face.
Thinking of this, Yang Fan smiled and said:
"Of course, those who have the imperial decree cannot be arrested, but if there is no imperial decree, as long as they participate in the fight, they will all be arrested and sent to the prison to await trial. If there is resistance, they will be shot without mercy."
"promise!"
Without any hesitation, Zhai Changsun and Xi Junmai waved their hands to signal the soldiers to come forward and arrest them.
There were loud sounds of swords being drawn, and a chilling atmosphere suddenly arose in the scene.
Seeing this, Duan Zhixuan's guards and servants looked horrified.
The opponent was armed with crossbows and swords unsheathed, and there were more people than them.
If you resist, you may be killed on the spot.
The onlookers were dumbfounded.
I thought that if Duan Zhixuan came up with the imperial edict, his governor would give up, but he didn't know it would be so fierce!
Duan Zhixuan didn't expect that Yang Fan would be such a rogue.
This guy simply doesn't play by common sense!
After all, he is also an official appointed by the emperor, and his entourage is also protected by the imperial decree.
But the other party had no scruples, he was simply crazy.
Before coming, Duan Zhixuan thought that Yang Fan would deliberately embarrass him, and he was mentally prepared.
But he didn't expect that Yang Fan would be so impatient that he would attack him before he even started taking office. He had such a bad temper!
Originally, Duan Zhixuan wanted to swallow his anger, take control of Huating County step by step, and then deal with Yang Fan.
But the other party didn't give him a chance to gain a foothold at all.
Even before he took office, he started to deal with his own people.
Obviously, Yang Fan wanted to become the polished commander himself.
At the same time, he wanted to discredit his reputation so that he would not be able to gain a foothold in Jiangnan in the future.
This move is really cruel.
Although Duan Zhixuan is an old man in official circles, he has seen many conspiracies and intrigues.
But a guy like Yang Fan who doesn't play according to the routine at all makes him really confused about the routine.
What surprised him even more was that these soldiers under Yang Fan were too powerful.
As the founding father of the country, Duan Zhixuan had fought numerous small and large battles, so Duan Zhixuan could naturally see the undisguised murderous intent in these soldiers.
If one's own people really dare to resist, the other party may really dare to slaughter all his people.
Although he was very angry at Yang Fan's rogue methods, a good man would not suffer the immediate consequences, and Duan Zhixuan could only suffer the consequences of being dumb.
He glared at Yang Fan fiercely, his blood-red eyes as if he wanted to eat someone.
It was really unimaginable to him that Yang Fan dared to give him a blow when he took office with an imperial edict. It was simply too lawless.
