"You're Niu Youde?" Yu Zhongzhen asked cheerfully upon seeing him.
"Yes!" Miao Yi nodded. He was a little confused as to who the other party was, but before he could ask, the other party had already started introducing himself.
They had just met, just entered the City Guard Palace, just met Granny Green, and before they could even greet Granny Green, this Commander Yu had already started.
The Left and Right Overseers of the Celestial Court were different from the troops of the local forces. The so-called 'local' naturally referred to the troops stationed there, and they had their own territories. The Left and Right Overseers were directly under the command of the Celestial Court, and were the elites of the elites. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to become the Celestial Emperor's personal guards. They would always be stationed wherever needed, and would be stationed in anyone's territory, but never their own. Coincidentally, General Yu was currently stationed in the territory of the Marquis of Heavenly Origin. He was acquainted with Granny Lu, and when he heard that she was coming, he came to take a look.
As Yu Zhongzhen rambled on, Granny Lu remained silent, staring at him with a cold expression. Great Commander Miao Yi could feel the difference between ice and fire.
Yang Qing, Yan Xiu, Yang Zhaoqing, and Hai Pingxin stood at the side.
Miao Yi was a little anxious. He didn't know when this General Yu would stop.
"Godmother!" Fei Hong stepped forward and greeted Granny Lü when she saw this.
Granny Lu grabbed her hand and pulled her behind her. "Hmph!" Suddenly, she let out a cold snort and slammed the green staff into the ground.
"Dong!" The ground trembled. Yu Zhongzhen turned around in shock, and finally shut up.
The commotion alerted the surrounding guards. Miao Yi waved his hand to dismiss them, then stepped forward and cupped his fists, "Heavenly Origin Planet's Heaven Street Commander Niu Youde greets Granny Lu."
'Whoosh!' Granny Lu pointed her staff at him, her voice like an old crow's, sharp and piercing, "How dare you touch my daughter!"
"Godmother!" Fei Hong quickly called out.
"I'm here. You don't have to be afraid!" Granny Lu pulled her back and shouted.
The staff almost pierced Miao Yi's chest. Miao Yi stood there calmly and raised his hand to push the end of the staff in front of him away, only to realize that he couldn't move it. His cultivation wasn't as high as the other party's, so he quickly turned around and stepped aside. With a smile on his face, he extended his hand and invited, "This is not the place to talk. Please have some tea in the main hall."
Yu Zhongzhen slightly nodded at Miao Yi's calmness. He wasn't the least bit afraid, and had a look of approval in his eyes.
Little did they know that Miao Yi had nothing to be afraid of. The other party had been plotting this for a long time. If they wanted to kill him, they would have done so a long time ago. There was no need for them to waste so much effort. This time, they were clearly here to scare him. He could guarantee that nothing would happen to him.
Granny Lu's fist landed on cotton, feeling a little powerless. Her old face twisted and she angrily said, "Who wants to drink your broken tea? I ask you, do you want to live or die?"
Miao Yi smiled and said, "There's no need for Granny to be so angry. So what if I want to die? So what if I want to live?"
Granny Lu said, "If you want to die, I will naturally strike you down with my staff. If you want to live, then immediately promote my daughter to be your legal wife. Since you are already like this, then kowtow to me three more times, and I will let this matter go."
Miao Yi maintained his smile and said, "I have already taken Feihong as my concubine. As for promoting her to be my legal wife, I have already discussed it with Feihong. We will see in the future. If it is suitable, then I will naturally promote her."
"Bullshit!" Granny Lu was furious. She tapped the end of her staff on Miao Yi's shoulder and said, "How can my daughter become a concubine? Don't try to fool me with your future. Either you promote her right now, or you will die!"
Miao Yi's expression immediately darkened. "Granny Lu, don't be so shameless. First, take a good look at where you are. This is the city guard palace that I am guarding on behalf of the Heavenly Shepherd. It is not a garden that you can manage. I know what to do. It is not your place to behave atrociously here!"
Hai Pingxin was dumbfounded. As someone who didn't know what was going on, she realized that the person she was serving was very fierce!
Fei Hong, who was holding onto Granny Lu's arm, was also a little dumbfounded. She realized that her man was as domineering as ever. No wonder he was the Great Commander Niu who had chopped off the heads of the nobles' servants.
The corner of Yu Zhongzhen's mouth twitched.
"What?" Granny Lu cried out in anger. She pushed Fei Hong away and said, "You think I won't dare to kill you?!" She immediately swung her staff at Miao Yi's head.
Yu Zhongzhen, who was standing beside her, also made a move. However, she raised Granny Lu's staff and stood in between them. She chuckled and said, "Aiya! Granny, why are you throwing such a big tantrum over a matter between a man and a woman? Let's talk things over. "She then turned to glare at Miao Yi and said," Brat, why don't you respect your elders? You haven't studied much, have you? Hurry up and apologize! "
Fei Hong also hugged Granny Lu's waist from behind. "Godmother, it's not what you think."
Yan Xiu and the others, who had almost made a move together, heaved a sigh of relief. Yang Qing stared at Yu Zhongzhen and sized him up again. He was still wondering why the Left Supervisory Guard's men were here, but now he understood. They were here to smooth things over. One was playing the good cop, while the other was playing the bad cop. They were trying to prevent things from deviating from their original course. They were really taking advantage of the fact that there was no one else here.
"Apologize?" Miao Yi sneered as he retreated. "I'll say it again. This is the Citadel Palace that I guard on behalf of the Heavenly Shepherd. It's not a place where just anyone can come and behave atrociously. Since you dare to disregard the Heavenly Emperor and ignore the laws of the heavens, then don't blame me for being impolite. Men! "His voice shook the Citadel Palace.
In an instant, hundreds of celestial soldiers and generals appeared. They brandished their sabers and spears and surrounded the scene.
Yu Zhongzhen quickly looked around. His subordinates also quickly moved to protect the surroundings. However, he couldn't help but look back and ask for instructions. 'Are we really going to make a move in the Citadel Palace? It doesn't make sense. Nothing will happen, right? '
Granny Lu looked to her left and right. She was also a little surprised. She had met someone who didn't play by the rules. Things had obviously deviated from her expectations.
Miao Yi pointed at Granny Lu and coldly said, "Get out of here right now. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Yang Qing sighed inwardly. He realized that this was where he was inferior to Miao Yi.
"Milord!" Fei Hong pleaded.
Granny Lu's old face was flushed red with anger. The wrinkles on her face had spread out, and the demonic aura on her body was faintly discernible. She shouted angrily, "How dare you! You useless soldiers and crab generals dare to touch this old lady?! "
Miao Yi scoffed, "As long as it's reasonable, why wouldn't I dare? I have already offended all the influential officials in the imperial court. Sooner or later, I will die. Every day I live is worth it. Why would I need to endure an old witch's anger? Sound the Dharma trumpets. Close the four city gates and summon the entire city's forces. I want to see how many she can kill. " He pointed his finger again. "Generals, listen to my command. Chase that old witch in green out. If she dares to resist, kill without mercy!"
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison. Their swords and spears pressed forward.
Yang Zhaoqing had already taken out something that looked like a horn and put it in his mouth.
Yu Zhongzhen, whose expression was twitching, grabbed the horn in Yang Zhaoqing's hand with his powerful transcendence energy. He quickly waved his hand to his surroundings and said, "All of you, stop. We are all on the same side." He flipped his hand and showed a colorful jade official archive to everyone.
Logically speaking, his rank did not have this kind of colorful jade official archive. Only those in the imperial court would have it. However, the structure of the Left and Right Supervising Wardens was different from the local forces. In addition to the special status of the Celestial Emperor's Personal Guards, he had this privilege.
It wasn't that he was afraid of the people guarding the city palace. Even if all the troops in Heaven's Street were to join forces, they wouldn't be able to do anything to him. It was just that if he really made a move in the city palace, all the officials in the imperial court would kill him. The old men in the imperial court couldn't wait to tie up the hands and feet of the Left and Right Supervising Wardens. How could they allow the Personal Guards to do anything outside of their duties? Not even Heaven's Street. They wouldn't give way to him, so he might even lose his head.
"Stop!" Yang Qing raised his hand and shouted. Since there was a mediator on the other side, he immediately became the mediator as well. Otherwise, if they really made a move, even if he could make the other party suffer, his side wouldn't be able to gain any advantage. It wasn't worth it to perish together for this matter. After stopping the troops, he hurriedly went up to Miao Yi and cupped his fists, saying, "Milord, we are all family. There is no need to be so righteous. If there is anything, why don't we discuss it peacefully? There is no need to go to war!"
"Yes, yes, yes. That person is right!" Opposite him, Yu Zhongzhen used the official archive in his hand to point at Yang Qing in admiration. He turned around and pulled Grandma Lu, whose face had turned pale with anger, and said earnestly, "Grandma Lu, your daughter already belongs to him. If you kill him, won't your daughter become a widow? Let's cool down. If there is anything, we can talk it out. We are all family, so why can't we talk it out?"
"Milord!" Fei Hong pounced over and hugged Miao Yi's arm. She had a pleading look on her face, and tears were already flowing down her face.
Miao Yi glanced at her and realized that she was really good at acting. As expected of an actress. He snorted, and with a flick of his sleeve, he pushed her away. He then turned around and strode back to the inner palace, with Yan Xiu following behind him.
Both sides were quite good at acting. The difference was that Miao Yi knew that both sides were acting, while Grandma Lu only thought that it was her side that was acting. However, this time, Grandma Lu was truly angered. This was the first time she was called an old hag by a mere Grand Commander in public.
Yang Qing gave Yang Zhaoqing a look, and Yang Zhaoqing immediately waved his hand at the troops surrounding the scene, saying, "Everyone, return to your positions."
Yang Qing naturally continued to stay here as a mediator. He went up to Yu Zhongzhen and chatted with him. After saying all sorts of nice things, he finally invited Grandma Lu and her group to the side courtyard to rest.
Meanwhile, Yang Zhaoqing acted as the errand boy between Grandma Lu and Miao Yi. Grandma Lu insisted that Miao Yi make Fei Hong his legal wife, but Miao Yi firmly opposed it. He had already let Yun Zhiqiu down. He would never relent on this point even if he died.
Both sides couldn't come to an agreement, but this matter definitely had to be resolved. They couldn't just keep holding on to it.
In the end, perhaps because the deed was already done and Fei Hong had already become Miao Yi's woman, Grandma Lu had no choice but to relent. Only then did Miao Yi move and take the initiative to meet her in the side courtyard.
However, when they met again, the smell of gunpowder between the two rose again. Grandma Lu poked the ground with her walking stick, "I'll ask you one last time. Are you really unwilling to make my daughter your legal wife?"
Miao Yi expressionlessly replied, "It's not that I'm unwilling. Getting married is an important matter of life. How can I be careless about it? I've already said that I want to spend some time together and see if it's suitable!"
"Fine! I'd like to see how tough your neck is. If I don't teach you a lesson, I'm afraid you'll think that there's no one left in this little girl's family. Who knows how you'll bully this little girl then. " Grandma Lu sneered. She looked around at the decorations in the room and said, "Everyone says that the position of Grand Commander in Celestial Avenue is very lucrative. I don't think you want it anymore. Yu Zhongzhen, I'll leave this matter to you."
Yu Zhongzhen smiled bitterly as he rubbed his nose. 'Is it appropriate for me to interfere in this matter?'
"It's none of your business whether I want this position or not." Miao Yi said disdainfully. What he was implying was that it was none of their business. He wasn't afraid at all. In the imperial court, Heavenly Flag Star Lord would speak up for him when the opportunity arose. Above him, Bi Yue was holding the fort. As long as Bi Yue didn't let him go, his position wasn't something that anyone could touch.
