The woman didn't want to say anything at first, but when she saw the coldness in her father's eyes, she gritted her teeth and told everything that had happened before.
Maybe she was really scared of Zhou Tianyuan, so she didn't play any tricks this time.
After listening to his daughter's words, Zhou Tianyuan looked at Zhang Yifeng, and at the same time his brows furrowed tightly.
"Who are you, and why do you suddenly appear in the City Lord's Mansion?" Zhou Tianyuan asked in a deep voice.
Zhang Yifeng chuckled lightly and said, "I said I was teleported here by the teleportation array. Do you believe it?"
Teleportation array?
Zhou Tianyuan's expression changed and he was about to speak. At this moment, Sima Ji, who had left earlier, suddenly came back.
There was another person in his hand, and that person was Sima Long, who was beaten horribly by Zhang Yifeng.
When Zhou Tianyuan and everyone around him saw Sima Long's tragic situation, their expressions changed drastically.
One of the gray-haired old men asked in a trembling voice: "Brother Sima, what's wrong with Xiaolong?"
Hearing the old man's words, Sima Ji felt sad and said with a choked voice: "He was seriously injured. If I had taken a step later, I might not have saved my life."
Having said this, Sima Ji suddenly knelt down towards Zhou Tianyuan and said in a choked voice: "Please make the decision for me, Lord City Lord, and kill this thief who injured my son!"
Zhou Tianyuan frowned. Although he was very angry in his heart, he had a vague feeling that the young man in front of him was not simple.
He did not dare to act rashly until he knew the origin of the other party.
However, after all, Sima Ji is an old man who has been with him for decades. If he doesn't give the other party an explanation, it will inevitably make his subordinates feel cold.
Thinking of this, Zhou Tianyuan took a deep breath and said, "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation."
After saying that, he looked at Zhang Yifeng.
"Who are you, and why did you break into my city lord's palace without permission and hurt Sima Long?"
Zhang Yifeng chuckled lightly and said: "Your daughter instigated Sima Long to kill me. How can I not fight back?"
Fight back?
Hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, not only Zhou Tianyuan, but also almost everyone present had their mouths twitching.
Sima Long has been beaten like this, is this just fighting back?
Zhou Tianyuan's face suddenly turned cold. Thinking of what Zhang Yifeng said before, he asked: "You said you were teleported here, then where were you teleported here?"
Zhang Yifeng heard this and said calmly: "Wangcheng."
Empire!
After hearing Zhang Yifeng's words, Zhou Tianyuan's expression changed drastically.
As the city lord of Yongan City, he naturally knows that there is indeed a teleportation array between the Royal City and Yongan City, and it is a one-way teleportation array from the Royal City to Yongan City.
But as far as he knew, the teleportation array in Wangcheng was in the hands of King Dali. How did Zhang Yifeng teleport through that teleportation array?
"Could it be that he is His Majesty's man?"
Although he was so suspicious, there was one thing that he couldn't figure out. In the past, people teleported from the royal city would be teleported to a fixed coordinate location, and that coordinate location was not in the city lord's palace.
But why was Zhang Yifeng teleported here?
Could it be that he is lying?
Thinking of this possibility, Zhou Tianyuan's face instantly turned cold. He was now almost certain that Zhang Yifeng must be lying.
"Hmph, no matter who you are, if you hurt someone in my city lord's palace, you must pay the due price."
Hearing Zhou Tianyuan's words, Zhang Yifeng shook his head and said, "You should take a look at something like this first. After you finish reading it, you can decide whether to make me pay the price."
After saying that, Zhang Yifeng took out a token from the storage ring and handed it to Zhou Tianyuan.
Seeing Zhang Yifeng's confident look, Zhou Tianyuan was a little confused about Zhang Yifeng's depth.
Taking a deep breath, he took the token handed over by Zhang Yifeng and read it.
"This, this is the king's golden order!"
After just one glance, he recognized the thing in his hand, which was the King's Golden Order that symbolized the king's identity.
In the Dali Kingdom, the king has the supreme status, and all the people of the kingdom must obey the king's will unconditionally.
The person holding the King's Golden Order represents the King's will. In other words, if Zhang Yifeng holds the King's Golden Order in his hand, then Zhang Yifeng is the King's special envoy.
Although he is the lord of Yong'an City, his status is not enough in front of the king's envoy.
Moreover, he also knew that there was indeed a formation in the Royal City that could be teleported to Yong'an City. In addition, Zhang Yifeng had the King's Golden Order in his hand, and he was now almost convinced of Zhang Yifeng's identity.
But what he was a little curious about was, if Zhang Yifeng was a special envoy sent by the king, why did he suddenly appear in Yong'an City?
"Could it be that His Majesty knew something and asked the special envoy to check on me?"
Thinking of this possibility, Zhou Tianyuan became anxious.
As the lord of the city, and in a place as high as Yong'an City and far away from the emperor, he naturally did a lot of shameful things behind the king's back... If the king's envoy really came because of this, then he would be in danger
.
Looking at Zhou Tianyuan's pale face, Zhang Yifeng said teasingly: "Why, the city lord still wants to punish me?"
The corner of Zhou Tianyuan's mouth twitched, and he showed an awkward smile and said: "You are joking. You are a special envoy sent by His Majesty. How dare I punish you?"
With that said, Zhou Tianyuan returned the king's golden order to Zhang Yifeng with a respectful look.
Looking at the King's Golden Ling in his hand, Zhang Yifeng sighed in his heart.
This golden order was given to him by Wang Yanzhao before he left the royal city.
Originally, he didn't want it. After all, the Dali Kingdom was just a passerby in his life, and he didn't want to have too much interaction with this country.
But when Wang Yanzhao told him that this token could help him solve a lot of troubles, he changed his mind and decided to accept the token.
Looking back now, his original decision was very correct. Wang Yanzhao did not lie to him. This token indeed has a lot of energy.
On the side, a bitter look appeared on the corner of Sima Ji's mouth.
Originally, he thought about asking Zhou Tianyuan to uphold justice for him, but when he heard Zhou Tianyuan call Zhang Yifeng the special envoy that day, he knew that he would never be able to get back the situation he was in today.
Moreover, he will never get it back again.
Thinking of this, Sima sighed secretly and was about to speak, but was interrupted instantly by Zhou Tianyuan.
"Sima Ji, Sima Long offended the special envoy. He asked for it himself. He has no one to blame. You can take him down to heal his wounds. Any expenses incurred will be charged to the lord of this city."
Sima Ji nodded. He knew that Zhou Tianyuan had done his best by doing this, so he left with Sima Long, who was seriously injured and unconscious.
