Chapter 709 Refusal to Marry
Ye Yan secretly sent people to watch these foreigners, but at first they didn't make any move.

I thought it was nothing more than a foreigner who was interested in Nanli and came here to play.

After following them for a few days, the people below will report to Ye Yan every day what these people are doing, so Ye Yan is not worried about such a frequency.

Ye Yan found out that these people were not just traveling and eating, drinking and having fun, but also had some other actions, which made him feel a little uneasy.

Originally, these people would leave after staying for more than ten days and half a month. Unexpectedly, they found a yard to live in.

"City Lord, they live in the south of the city." The people below reported to Ye Yanhui.

Ye Yan nodded, with a certain calculation in his heart, he pursed his lips and replied coldly: "I see."

After these foreigners settled down, they got along very well with the surrounding Nanli people.

Ye Yan sent someone to investigate the background details of these people. They were not poor people. The more they were like this, the more wary Ye Yan was of these people. Their behavior was too abnormal.

When I came to Nanli suddenly, I didn't say anything, but stayed here, learning Nanli's language and other habits, no matter how I looked at it, it was with a purpose.

In the south of the city, a few foreigners were planning to meet Ye Yan, and they all said how powerful and famous Ye Wang was, so they were full of intentions to find out about such a legendary man.

"Brother, how are we going to meet the city lord? Ye Yan is not someone we can just say we see."

"Go to the yamen to hand over the greeting card, and let the lord of the yamen hand it over." The leader of several people said.

So, the man finished writing the greeting card, and immediately set off for the yamen.

After entering the yamen, a few people threatened to see the lord, and the temperament on their bodies made people feel different from ordinary people.

When the officials heard what they said, they knew that they were not Nanli's people, but why did they want to find fault with Nanli?
"You guys, did you lose something, or was the money paid for by the merchant?" the official asked impatiently.

The foreigners who come to the Yamen are simply because they are in the local area and have trouble dealing with the people.

Dealing with their affairs every day, the official messengers are one head and two big. Since Nanli has a scenic spot, there are more things to do.

"No, no, no, we don't have any unpleasantness. The people of Nanli are very friendly. We have something to ask you to see your lord." The leader said politely.

Immediately afterwards, the official replied: "My lord has gone out to do some business, and I won't be here for a few days. You can come back later."

A few people took the trip for nothing, so they gave up and went back to the residence, planning to go again another day.

"City Master, those people have made a move." The human sent to watch said.

Ye Yan asked suspiciously, "Come here."

"A few of them went to the yamen in the city, and they went to the lord of the yamen, and wanted to ask to see the city lord. Unfortunately, the lord was not in the mansion, so they were sent away by the officials."

Ye Yan suddenly became interested: "You want to see me? These people are really not simple."

"Go and spread my message and bring them to the mansion to meet me."

Ye Yan spoke immediately, feeling a little puzzled in his heart, but he became more interested in these people.

"Yes, my subordinates will go now."

The few people who returned home were a little downcast when someone knocked on the door suddenly.

The leader went to open the door. Seeing that they were dressed as officers and soldiers, he subconsciously raised his guard.

"My lord, what are you looking for from us?" He was very kind, and it was better to be careful when he didn't know the situation, after all, it was on his territory.

"Several guests, our city lord invites you." The subordinate said loudly.

After finishing speaking, several foreign people were a little unbelievable, it was such a coincidence.

However, if you think about it carefully, the whole of Nanli belongs to Ye Yan, and it's not easy to know what's going on.

"Please wait a moment, let's get ready." After the leader finished speaking, he went back to the room to get a baggage.

"What is this?" the official asked, pointing to the baggage.

"My personal belongings." The boss smiled.

"Check it out for me."

"Please take a look." The leader opened the bag.

After careful inspection, they found nothing unusual, so they took them to see Ye Yan.

Ye Yan prepared tea in the yard, and his subordinates took several people to the yard to rest.

"City Master, someone has brought it here." The subordinate replied.

"Yeah." Ye Yan stood up and headed to the yard.

"I've seen the city lord." Seeing the visitor, several people got up and saluted respectfully.

"You're welcome, please sit down." Ye Yan invited.

Only then did a few people see Ye Yan, who was a bit younger and handsomer than they thought.

"The city lord is more handsome than we imagined." The leader praised.

Ye Yan smiled politely: "Thank you for your compliments, you guys, it's been a while since you came to Nanli, I wonder if you can get used to it."

As soon as these words were said, several people couldn't help but feel a little numb. Facts have proved that their words and deeds are all under Ye Yan's nose.

"The city lord is really diligent and knows his city well." The leader said with a wry smile.

"The responsibility lies." Ye Yan replied.

"You guys want to see me, but it's okay to say." Ye Yan opened the skylight directly to speak frankly.

"City Master Ye is generous, this is our document." The leader opened the bag and took out a booklet.

Ye Yan took it over and took a closer look. As he guessed, there were alien races in the surrounding area.

"How many want to cooperate with Nanli?" Ye Yan closed the document and handed it back.

"It's not cooperation." The boss smiled.

Ye Yan paid attention to his every word and deed. From the moment he saw these people, he felt the greed in their eyes.

"Oh?" Ye Yan took a sip of tea.

"Our princess is naturally beautiful, and she is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is really a good match for Lord Ye, so we want to marry Nan Li." The man said bluntly.

"Marriage?" Ye Yan was puzzled.

The leader nodded: "That's right, we intend to get married with Nan Li."

Ye Yan was momentarily at a loss for words, as if a fly had been stuffed into his mouth.

"Guys, getting married is a big deal. I, Nanli, have never planned on it." Ye Yan directly refused.

The man didn't expect Ye Yan to veto it directly, and his face couldn't hang on for a moment.

"How can the city lord be so ruthless? Our princess is so noble, how can she be so despised by you?"

Ye Yan said with a serious face: "It has nothing to do with the princess, and it has nothing to do with your clan. This city lord will not accept the marriage."

"Then we'll leave first." The man lost face and led them away.

Ye Yan also looked displeased, their greed made him feel very irritable.

Those people moved out of Nanli overnight, leaving the yard empty. Ye Yan was sure that they would make some move, so he sent extra people to keep an eye on them.

Sure enough, after those people returned, they led a group of people from their own jurisdiction to cause trouble at the border of Nanli.

The people Ye Yan sent were all elites, and with the preparation in advance, they were quickly cleaned up.

Those people were captured by Ye Yan's men and brought them in front of Ye Yan.

Several people saw how powerful Ye Yan was, and they knelt down obediently at the moment.

"How dare you make trouble with me, Nanli." Ye Yan asked.

"We've lost, let us deal with you." The leader was also stubborn.

"Are you willing to submit to me?" Ye Yan asked.

Several people were ready to be executed, but Ye Yan did not expect to ask such a question.

They fell in love with Nan Li's life at first, so they wanted to get close to Nan Li.

Ye Yan also knew that they didn't intend to invade, so he gave them a chance.

Several people nodded firmly: "We lost, and we are convinced and willing."

"Okay, happy, the jurisdiction is still your own, but you have to follow my policy." Ye Yan said domineeringly.

"I don't allow any war." Ye Yan added.

After Ye Yan finished speaking, several people nodded in agreement.
