As soon as these words came out, the smile on Zhong Yuan's face suddenly faded.
The breath all over his body became cold at that moment.
He stared at Chu Qingxiao, and after a while he said quietly: "Mr. Chu, you know that ordinary people are not guilty of harboring a jade."
Chu Qingxiao asked: "General, are you threatening me?"
"It's not a threat." Zhong Yuan said.
"Since you don't want to threaten and we are not willing to give, then why are you still here?" Song Qingqing on the side interjected at this time.
Zhong Yuan ignored Song Qingqing's ridicule, but looked straight at Chu Qingxiao and continued: "When I work in Prince Wu's Mansion, I always pay attention to persuading people with virtue."
"What I just said was a solution that everyone is happy with. Since Brother Chu doesn't appreciate it, I can only talk to Brother Chu about the laws of Daxia."
Chu Qingxiao seemed to realize something. He frowned, but remained calm on the surface and said: "Please enlighten me, general."
"Jianyue City is affiliated to the Tianxun Division."
"General Yu Fadu, Jianyue City shoulders the mission of suppressing the evil god. This is something that is higher than all laws."
"Everyone in Daxia needs to unconditionally cooperate with Jianyuecheng's actions. Similarly, Brother Chu got the Dragon Seal belonging to Jianyuecheng by chance, so he should return it."
"After all, Brother Chu can't be regarded as the descendant of Jian Yuecheng, right?"
"If you insist on hiding it secretly, you will violate the laws of Daxia. As the commander of Prince Wu's Mansion, I have the right to detain Brother Chu, or even... question and kill him!"
Zhong Yuan said the word "ask and chop" very loudly. After hearing this, Song Qingming, Zhao Zhao and others all changed their expressions.
Zhong Yuan's question was very clever, and the angle was very tricky, even vicious.
There is no doubt that Chu Qingxiao is the successor of Jianyue City recognized by Song Guicheng.
But similarly, because Song Guicheng and others were rebels that had long been recognized by the court, and they were not the orthodox members of Jianyue City, if Chu Qingxiao wanted to retain the Dragon Xiang Seal for such a reason, he would be denying the court's decision to sit down. case.
It would be easy to be labeled as a rebel comrade.
But if Chu Qingxiao didn't use it as a justification, he would have no reason to leave the dragon seal.
After all, Zhong Yuan at this moment just gave Chu Qingxiao a multiple-choice question.
Either hand over the Dragon Xiang Seal obediently.
Or wait to be labeled as a rebel comrade.
And no matter whether Chu Qingxiao chooses the former or the latter, the Dragon Xiang Seal cannot be saved.
The people behind Chu Qingxiao were probably aware of this, and their expressions were ugly.
Song Qingqing trembled even more, and suddenly understood the meaning of what Chu Qingxiao said today...
Their situation was indeed not as simple as she thought. There were many people watching them, and it would be difficult for them to complete the task of redressing the injustices of Song Guicheng and others by themselves.
Thinking of this, Song Qingqing's face turned a little pale.
She touched the Dragon Seal in her arms and clenched her fist in her other hand.
That was the only thing her father left her.
It represents the inheritance of Jianyue City, and also represents the hope of Jianyue City. If this thing is handed over, it will be more difficult for the survivors to have the capital to make a comeback.
But in this situation, she had no other choice.
She raised her head and looked forward, only to see Chu Qingxiao's head lowered. Although she could not clearly see the expression on the other person's face at this moment, she could probably imagine that Chu Qingxiao must be full of anger, but did not dare to vent it.
Although she had some quarrels with Chu Qingxiao today, she also believed in Chu Qingxiao and knew that he cared about her. He also understood the meaning of the Dragon Seal to her.
Therefore, he was unwilling to hand over this thing, and his heart must be particularly tormented at this moment.
Thinking of this, Song Qingqing gritted his teeth and decided to make the decision for Chu Qingxiao.
After all, although the Dragon Seal is precious, there is hope only if you are alive. It is not worth it no matter how you look at it, sacrificing your life for a dead thing.
Although I was reluctant to give up, I also felt angry and aggrieved.
But now that the decision had been made, Song Qingqing no longer hesitated.
She took a step forward, took out the Dragon Xiang Seal from her arms, and was about to hand it over.
Zhong Yuan also saw this scene in his eyes, and he was not surprised by the compromise of Chu Qingxiao and others. After all, anyone who is not a fool should know what decision to make at this moment.
He smiled with satisfaction.
At the same time, a hand stretched out at this time, preparing to finish this thing.
But at this moment, Chu Qingxiao, who had his head lowered, suddenly stretched out his hand and stopped Song Qingqing, who was about to step forward.
This move was beyond the expectations of everyone present.
Zhong Yuan frowned, Song Qingqing also looked confused, but City Lord Xu only raised his eyebrows with an intriguing expression.
"Brother Qingxiao?" Song Qingqing turned to look at Chu Qingxiao and asked in confusion.
This was a conspiracy that she could see, and she didn't believe that Chu Qingxiao couldn't understand the secret behind it.
Chu Qingxiao didn't say a word, but used strength in his arms to make Song Qingqing put back the hand holding the Long Xiang Seal.
Then, he looked at Zhong Yuan and said, "General Zhong is right, but..."
"I still have difficulty obeying my orders."
Zhong Yuan was stunned for a moment, very surprised by Chu Qingxiao's answer.
He narrowed his eyes, looked at Chu Qingxiao and said, "So Mr. Chu wants to walk all the way to the dark side?"
He said this with a hint of regret in his tone.
After saying this, he glanced at the soldiers behind him. Those soldiers naturally understood Zhong Yuan's thoughts and stepped forward one after another. Looking at the posture, they were about to capture Chu Qingxiao.
Chu Qingxiao looked at the group of soldiers who were surrounding them with no panic. He looked at Zhong Yuan calmly and asked, "What is the general going to do?"
"Young Master Chu secretly hid the treasure of the Patrol Division, which is against the laws of Daxia. I want to take you back for interrogation, what? Are you going to violate the laws of Daxia, Master Chu?" Zhong Yuan asked in a cold voice.
When Zhou Ling'er arrived at the scene before, he opened the courtyard door, which caused a lot of commotion. In addition, Chu Qingxiao's sensitive identity naturally attracted a large number of onlookers. At this moment, the arrival of Zhong Yuan and Xu Ran caused even more crowds to gather outside the courtyard door. The number of spectators increased sharply.
As soon as Zhong Yuan said this, the spectators around him took a deep breath.
With Zhong Yuan's hat on, in their opinion, if Chu Qingxiao refused to give in, he might not be able to escape the fate of being imprisoned by Prince Wu's Palace. The Heavenly Prison of Prince Wu's Palace was famous for its harsh torture, and few people could survive intact. He walked out of the prison intact. In the eyes of everyone, Chu Qingxiao was now in a very bad situation.
"Excuse me, General, which law of Daxia have I violated?" But Chu Qingxiao, the person involved, still looked calm. Not only did he not have the slightest trace of fear on his face, he asked calmly.
"Song Guicheng defected back then and stole the most precious Dragon Xiang Seal from Jianyue City. Now that you have brought the Dragon Xiang Seal out, you should return it."
"Article 17 of the Law of Daxia clearly states: The people of Daxia should not hide anything related to the Tianxian Division. If you hide it secretly, you will be guilty of conspiracy!" Zhong Yuan said with a sneer: "The law Rufeng, Chu Qingxiao, what else do you have to be dissatisfied with?"
When Chu Qingxiao heard this, he looked at Zhong Yuan and did not respond. He just looked straight at him, his expression still calm, as if he was waiting for something.
But a few breaths later, a voice suddenly came from behind the crowd.
"May I ask General Zhong, which one is more important, the Patrol Division or Jianyue City?" The voice sounded so abruptly that everyone present looked sideways.
I saw a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi standing out from the crowd at this time. He was in his early thirties and had an outstanding appearance.
Surprisingly, it was Liang Tubei, the Qingyi Order of the Supervisor Tiansi who came to invite Chu Qingxiao yesterday!
Zhong Yuan obviously knew this person. He obviously had no expectation of Liang Tubei's arrival. He frowned, looked at Liang Tubei meaningfully, and then said: "Jianyue City belongs to the Tianxun Division. Naturally, the Surveying Department is more important than the Sword City, which is more important."
"But it seems that the Tiantian Division has nothing to do with the Tianxun Division. When did Liang Qingyi care about these things?"
Liang Tubei said: "Jiantiansi and Xuntiansi are of the same spirit. They are both born to suppress the evil gods. They should take care of each other. Compared to Prince Wu's Mansion, shouldn't Supervisor Tiansi be more responsible for taking care of Xantiansi?" ?”
"Oh? Is Supervisor Tiansi still so elegant?" Zhong Yuan's tone became colder, and he said, "Then how is Liang Qingyi going to take care of Tianxunsi?"
Liang Tubei smiled slightly, looking past Zhong Yuan to Chu Qingxiao beside him, and then said: "Ever since the last Chief Commander of the Sky Patrol Department disappeared more than thirty years ago, the Sky Patrol Division has been leaderless."
"The Supervisory Sky Division is weak and unable to cope with the increasingly frequent awakenings of gods and extraterrestrial evil gods. Therefore, the Great Commander intends to reestablish the Supervisory Sky Division."
"But due to the lack of suitable candidates, this matter has never been put on the agenda."
"And the Tianxian Division needs to face powerful evil gods. What is more important than cultivation is the character of the mind and the experience of facing the gods."
"As we all know, the most powerful gods in the world are nothing more than a few ancient gods at the level of powerful gods. Not to mention you and me, even Da Siming has never faced such existences."
"But this Mr. Chu is different. He not only survived the eternal night world, but he is also one of the few people in the world who can face the ancient gods at the level of gods. Da Siming admires him very much and has decided to rebuild the Tianxun Division. Put the important responsibility in his hands!"
As soon as Liang Tubei said these words, the onlookers around him had strange expressions, and their faces were full of disbelief.
Zhong Yuan frowned, looked at Liang Tubei and asked in a cold voice: "What do Liang Qingyi mean by these words? Please make it clear."
Liang Tubei smiled and said, "General Zhong, do you think I didn't understand what I said?"
After that, he didn't wait for Zhong Yuan to ask again. He paused at that moment, glanced at everyone present, and then said loudly.
"Then let me speak more clearly..."
"According to the orders of the Chief Commander, from now on, Chu Qingxiao will be appointed as the Chief Commander of the Sky Patrol Division!"
"Rebuild the Sky Patrol Department!"
