When all the soldiers heard this, they all looked at each other.
The captain of the army laughed angrily, "Your Excellency, you have such a strong tone!"
With that said, he couldn't help it anymore and had to command the soldiers again.
"I said, don't use force or cause unnecessary trouble." King Xuan stopped him calmly, then moved his beautiful eyes slightly and touched the jade pendant around his waist.
That was given to her by Xiao Yuan. It should be useful in Qin State, right?
Thinking of this, she took out her jade pendant and was about to say something, but at this moment, a rather majestic voice came from behind: "What's wrong?"
Following the words, a man in his forties stepped over.
He is dressed in official uniform, and his official position does not seem to be big, but he is full of style.
Seeing him, the soldiers quickly saluted: "Master Zhou."
The official waved his hand: "The governor ordered that the city gates no longer need to be under martial law and can be restored to the past."
"Ah?" The military captain was stunned for a moment, then responded: "Yes."
This official was a small official from Wuling. He came here to deliver a message to the county government, but by chance he came across this incident.
After passing the command, he glanced at the scene and asked casually: "What happened just now?"
Although he was a minor official, the captain of the army did not dare to offend him, so he quickly returned: "Sir, during the previous investigation at the city gate, these two people said they were out for fun, but they did not have any identification information, so..."
At this point, the official understood. After interrupting him, he also looked at King Xuan.
It didn't matter. The official couldn't help but stare, and said to himself, "How beautiful." Then he calmed down: "Where are you tourists from? Are you visiting relatives or friends in Wuling..."
As he spoke, his eyes also glanced at the jade pendant in King Xuan's hand, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he stopped what he was going to say.
King Xuan smiled and raised the jade pendant in his hand slightly: "My lord, there is no need to ask any more questions. This jade pendant should be able to explain something, right?"
The jade pendant was in her hand. The official couldn't take a close look at it, but he felt something strange. He subconsciously said, "Can I take a look?"
"Of course." King Xuan handed it over.
Seeing this, the official raised his head to the military captain. The latter understood, stepped forward to take it, and handed it to him respectfully.
After taking the jade pendant, the official began to look at it carefully.
This jade is priceless at first glance, and it must have come from the hands of a skilled craftsman, making it extremely exquisite.
But as he looked at it, the official's eyes widened, and then his hand shook and he almost dropped the jade pendant.
King Xuan was so smart and observed his words. Knowing that the jade pendant was working, he kindly reminded him: "Sir, if this jade pendant is damaged, your life may not be saved."
ah! ? Hearing this, the official was startled again, and then he came back to his senses. He took the jade pendant and swallowed hard. He looked at King Xuan, his eyes changed, and he stammered: "This, this jade pendant... …”
"My lord, haven't you already understood?" King Xuan stopped talking.
"Ah?" The official panicked again, but although he was a Qin official, his official position was not high, so he couldn't really be sure. After struggling for a long time, he tentatively said: "This, although this jade pendant is a king's thing, but... But I’m sorry that I’m blind and can’t distinguish between true and false, this…”
He grinned secretly, not knowing what to do. When the soldiers around him heard what he said, they all gasped and turned pale with shock.
The thing of kings?
The captain of the army also opened his eyes wide, his Adam's apple slipped, and he swallowed hard. When he looked at King Xuan again, he also had some panic and fear in his eyes.
Prince Xuan frowned slightly and said, "In that case, then go to the county government. I believe your Lord Commander will make a clear decision."
This can be said to be the best way. Officials don't know the truth and don't dare to make a decision easily. Now that they have this jade pendant, they don't dare to offend King Xuan like this. If something happens, he won't be able to save ten of his heads.
In the minds of the officials, if the jade pendant is fake, they can capture King Xuan immediately, and they can also ask for credit in front of the county governor. If it is true, they will not offend, so it is the best of both worlds.
Therefore, after hearing the words, he immediately echoed: "Yes, yes, please follow me to the county government."
As he spoke, he quickly bent down slightly, handed back the jade pendant with both hands, and smiled.
He acted respectfully at first, which was actually a smart move. King Xuan took the jade pendant back and carefully put it on his waist. He also signaled to Fengqing and followed the officials into Wuling.
The people around him were already talking about it on the outside.
It was not a short distance from the city gate to the governor's mansion. There were many soldiers following along the way, and officials were smiling from time to time.
When they arrived at the county government office, after reporting, King Xuan and the officials were also welcomed into the living room.
After arriving here, the matter was unclear, but the official still showed respect and said something to King Xuan, then left the living room and hurriedly went to find the Wuling County Sheriff.
The county governor here is named Yang Youlin, who was personally transferred by Xiao Yuan after he established Wuling.
At present, this matter has been reported to Yang Youlin. He was also rushing from the study and happened to meet the official halfway.
Seeing him, the officials quickly saluted, and Yang Youlin said: "No need to be polite, Mr. Zhou, what is going on?"
The official explained: "Sir, I just went to the south gate and accidentally discovered the King's Jade Pendant on a strange woman."
"Oh? Did you see clearly?" Yang Youlin looked serious.
The official said: "I saw it clearly, but I don't dare to confirm the other party's identity."
After saying that, he quickly said: "This jade pendant has the pattern of our King of Qin's family on it. It is unique. Who among the people dares to hold it, it will be a crime of nine deaths. Moreover, the jade pendant is exquisite and rare in the world. No matter how stupid you are, you will be a low-ranking official." , and you will never get it wrong.”
"Hiss..." Hearing what he said, Yang Youlin couldn't help but take a breath. After thinking about it, he asked: "Are you the princess?"
"This." The official was stunned and said, "That's probably not the case. It's impossible for the queen to come here alone."
"Yes." Yang Youlin nodded, then raised his feet and said, "Quick! Come with me and take a look."
He walked in a hurry, and before long, he had reached the living room.
Prince Xuan was standing in the hall with his hands behind his back in boredom. After seeing him, he asked directly: "Your Excellency, are you the governor of Wuling County?"
"Ah, that's right." Yang Youlin cupped his hands, and then began to observe the situation without leaving any trace.
He was the head of a county, but the other party didn't even have the intention to salute him, and he seemed not to be surprised. The wind was calm and the clouds were calm, and there was an invisible aura in his movements.
I'm afraid this person has a lot of background.
Thinking of this, he smiled again and said tentatively: "I wonder if you are coming to Wuling..."
"Just passing by."
"Then, jade pendant..."
"A gift from the King of Qin."
At this point in the conversation, Yang Youlin couldn't help but swallowed, and laughed again. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
When King Xuan saw this, he smiled gently and naturally understood what he meant. He took out the jade pendant and handed it to him and said:
"It's not surprising that the Sheriff has doubts."
