General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 433 Barrier (1)

"We have already planned for this. City Lord Qu just needs to nod his head." Mother Ji glanced at Fang Chen, who nodded.

"City Lord Qu, do you remember me?" Fang Chen walked up to City Lord Qu and took off his disguise.

"..." City Lord Qu was stunned and stared at Fang Chen blankly, unable to speak for a long time. "Fang... Fang... mighty... mighty General!"

"Long time no see." Fang Chen nodded to City Lord Qu, who suddenly knelt in front of Fang Chen. "It's Old Qu who is sorry for you."

"City Lord Qu, what are you doing?" Fang Chen was stunned and signaled Lin Feng to quickly help City Lord Qu up.

But City Lord Qu insisted on his own way and refused to get up, kneeling in front of Fang Chen. "Old Qu, I don't have the face to see you."

Qu Shishi and Bai Yichen looked at City Lord Qu. It was the first time they saw City Lord Qu so self-blaming, guilty and remorseful.

"You have no choice." Fang Chen glanced at City Lord Qu, "I don't blame you."

"What happened? Why did City Lord Qu suddenly want to kneel down to you?" Mother Ji was confused. Did City Lord Qu's attitude seem to have some story behind it?

"We were attacked from all sides and suffered a lot of injuries. We wanted to go into the city to recuperate, but City Lord Qu locked the door tightly and refused to let us in. We had no choice but to recuperate in front of the city gate for a while and fought desperately with the pursuing enemies. In the end, we were all seriously injured and almost died." Lin Feng suddenly remembered, and when he looked at City Lord Qu again, there was no emotion in his eyes.

"Old Qu... I am ashamed." City Lord Qu lowered his head, "At that time, I received a secret order from the emperor, ordering me not to open the city. Old Qu had no choice but to do as he said. I am really sorry, General."

At that time, he was standing on the city wall, watching Fang Chen and others fighting below. The battle was very fierce, they saw it all, and the soldiers guarding the city wanted to go down to help, but the emperor's order was above them, and they dared not disobey.

Later, they fought desperately and were seriously injured, but he did not open the door to them again and left with serious injuries. This matter has been weighing on his mind. He looked at their backs as they left, felt disappointed with the court, and then he retreated.

"The emperor has decreed that we understand." Fang Chen did not embarrass City Lord Qu. He just glanced at Lin Feng, who had a blank expression on his face.

"Is it because of this incident that you brought me... back here?" Qu Shishi asked.

"Well, my father was extremely disappointed with the imperial court, so he took the initiative to abdicate and come here to be the city lord." City Lord Qu replied. At that time, he gave up all his wealth and came here resolutely with his daughter, just to plan to spend his remaining years here.

"I see." Ji Xiaowu nodded and told City Lord Qu their plan. After listening, City Lord Qu said, "I admire you, Madam, for being so broad-minded. I am willing to cooperate with you and obey your orders."

"For this, thank you very much, Lord Qu." Mother Ji nodded. It would of course be best if Lord Qu took the initiative to cooperate.

"Madam, you're welcome." City Lord Qu waved his hand and looked at Qu Shishi with reluctance in his eyes. "Dad is gone, take good care of yourself."

"Is City Lord Qu going back to the city now?" Old Lady Ji was stunned. She didn't expect City Lord Qu to leave as soon as he said so.

"I am too ashamed to stay here. I feel guilty." City Lord Qu sighed.

"Dad, you can stay here!" Qu Shishi immediately pulled City Lord Qu and said with a smile, "Lin Feng, can my dad stay at your place?"

"Well, you can do whatever you want with the house." Lin Feng replied coldly, turned around and left.
