Plane Merchant Fancy Death

Chapter 22 Invasion
Ye Junwen just thought of trying to win over the nobles. Of course, the most important one is the city lord Clovis. If he can win over the city lord, it is of course the best choice for now. Originally, he also wanted to Try to find a way to see the city lord or something like that, but generally speaking it is difficult to see the words of the city lord. I was trying to find a way, but suddenly received the news that the city lord died?

Ye Junwen hurriedly asked the innkeeper about the specific situation, and the general information he got was that the city lord Clovis was indeed dead, and the cause of death was...death in battle.About a month ago, there was a war between the principality they were in and another principality nearby. The city lord Clovis received an order from above to lead his troops to the battlefield. As a result, he received an obituary this morning, and the city lord died in battle.

It's just that the news is a bit late. Clovis died four days ago, and before that, I don't know if the news was delayed or blocked. When the people in the city heard the news, it would be this morning. The whole city immediately became chaotic.

Along with the news of the death of the city lord, there is another news, that is, the news of the heir.Because the lord of the city is dead, his identity will of course be inherited by his heirs. According to the news so far, the successor of the lord of Clovis, Selina Clovis, has entered the city in the early hours of this morning.

This Selina Clovis is the son of the former city lord. I heard that he was in another place. According to Ye Junwen's estimation, the other party should know the news of his father's death first, and then he should be able to hide it. After all, as the heir He was still out of town, so he didn't announce the news until he arrived at the territory, so as to avoid accidents.

However, from the mouth of the hotel owner, Ye Junwen also knew that the civilians here were generally worried about the current situation. The main problem was that Serena Clovis had a poor reputation.

The recently deceased Lord Clovis should still be a good Lord, but his son Selina, according to the innkeeper, is a cursed person.It is said that the other party suffers from leprosy, looks extremely ugly, and seems to be mentally ill, and even many citizens have never seen this heir, and the city lord Clovis doesn't seem to like this son either. About 4 years ago, the city lord Ke Luowei Lowe sent Selina out of Ledeska City, and the leaders didn't know where they sent it. Anyway, they probably were exiled or something.

However, the Lord Clovis is very unfortunate to have only such a son, and he was not in a hurry at first. After all, the Lord Clovis is only 40 years old this year, and he can still be the Lord of the city for decades. The bad news caught everyone by surprise.Now that Clovis died suddenly, of course his territory can only be inherited by Selina, so there is no problem for Selina to come back, but for this lord with a very bad reputation, everyone expressed concern about the future .

"I don't know what the new lord is like..." the innkeeper couldn't help saying it again.

Ye Junwen couldn't control how worried the boss was. For him, the most important thing was his own business development.It would be great if the new lord can establish a relationship with the other party.Thinking of this, Ye Junwen felt that no matter if he was new here or not, it was true to find a way to meet the other party.

Of course, it is impossible to see it through ordinary methods. How is it possible that he, an unknown person, wants to meet the city lord?Ye Junwen thought for a while, the behavior might be a bit risky, but he seemed to have to do it, knowing that he didn't even have the money to stay in the hotel, if he didn't come up with a solution today, he might have to sleep on the street, that would be a bit It was too miserable, so Ye Junwen could only take some risks.

Thinking of this, Ye Junwen tidied up his things a bit, then left the hotel, aiming for the City Lord's Mansion in the middle of the city.Along the way, Ye Junwen took a look at the situation in the city again. Although it is still morning, there are already many people active in the city, but the atmosphere today is obviously different from yesterday when Ye Junwen was shopping Yes, Ye Junwen listened to it for a while, and sure enough everyone was discussing the news of the death of the city lord, and regarding the new city lord, it seemed that everyone had the same opinion and was very worried.

After strolling around for a while, Ye Junwen also arrived near the City Lord's Mansion.The City Lord's Mansion of Ledeska City happened to be located in the center of the city. The situation here was completely different from where Ye Junwen was before, and it looked much neater and cleaner.Ye Junwen probably understood that the place where he was before should be a civilian commercial area, and this is the City Lord's Mansion after all.

The City Lord's Mansion is very large, surrounded by a wall, which also clearly separates the City Lord's Mansion from the surrounding buildings. Through the wall, Ye Junwen only saw the roof of a three-story building inside the City Lord's Mansion. From the current point of view, it should be Very grand.

"How did you see the city lord?" Of course Ye Junwen didn't approach him, he stood at a distance and watched for a while, the first method he could use was to sneak in, relying on his false identity as a businessman to see if he could meet him The city lord and the like, but it is probably not feasible to do so.After all, now that the old city lord just died, you still want the new city lord to take care of you, a new businessman?The second one is to wait at the door to see if there is a chance to see the city lord come out. However, the waiting time for this method is not certain, and I can't afford to wait, so the only remaining method is... to sneak in.Meet the city lord first, and try to talk to the other party. If it doesn't work, then you are not afraid of death anyway. As long as you don't reveal your identity, the other party can't find you if you escape safely.

However, this method is of course quite difficult. First of all, Ye Junwen saw that there were many guards at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, and then there were patrols. There are a lot of patrols in this area, usually in groups of five or six people. Soldiers with spears, it's not easy to get in, let alone in broad daylight.

"Why don't you try it at night?" Ye Junwen is still very confident in his current skills. He was used to his body when he was in the forest before. Besides, Ye Junwen still has some experience in sneaking, so he waited until the night. Sometimes, I might be able to sneak in.

But just when I was thinking this way, suddenly there was a bell from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion in front of me, it was the kind of bell that sounded like a bell.Upon hearing the ringing of the bell, the surrounding patrols became tense, and immediately rushed in the direction of the ringing.

"Huh?" Seeing this situation, Ye Junwen was a little taken aback. This should be an alarm, but it must not be him, who hasn't acted yet.Could it be that there are other people besides yourself who want to break into the City Lord's Mansion?Although I don't know what happened, this sudden incident gave Ye Junwen a chance. Is there a better time than this?Seeing the patrol team leave, Ye Junwen directly took out a hooded hood from the space and put it on his body, then he accelerated and rushed towards the wall of the City Lord's Mansion.

The fence is very high, and there are barbs on it, which prevent people from easily climbing in. But Ye Junwen is very skilled now, and he is not afraid of any barbs. He kicked on the wall twice at a speed, and then directly grabbed the barb on the wall. Sting, push up hard, and he will roll over.Looking at the situation below, because the caller seemed to be from another direction, no one noticed his side. Ye Junwen even saw a lot of guards moving, and the other party could see his side as soon as he turned his head. Yet their attention is on the other side.

Looking around, there are several buildings inside the walls of the City Lord's Mansion, but the City Lord must be in the largest building in the middle. Ye Junwen immediately approached the side of this building while there was no one there.After looking around for a while, it was more troublesome to enter the first floor. The windows near him were closed, and it was impossible for him to break through the windows to get in. However, Ye Junwen looked up and found that the balcony on the second floor was easier to climb in, so An accelerated step on the balcony again, and he went up as soon as he turned over.

As a result, as soon as he went up, Ye Junwen was taken aback, because he saw a person appearing in the room head-on.The person in front of me was a woman, very young, with short black hair and a pretty face, she was considered a beauty, but the other person was only wearing a thin cloth at this time, when Ye Junwen saw her, the other person was putting something on her body Things, if you look closely, it seems to be a relatively thin armor of the chain mail type.

Both sides were taken aback when they saw each other, but Ye Junwen reacted faster, and immediately took two steps forward and rushed towards each other.

"You..." The woman on the opposite side saw Ye Junwen rushing over, so she reacted and wanted to resist, but half of the armor on her body was worn, and her hand was still stuck. Before she could do anything, Ye Junwen covered it Shut the opponent's mouth, and then directly pressed the opponent to the ground.

"Don't move!" Ye Junwen said immediately.

Having said that, the woman here continued to struggle. Just when Ye Junwen wanted to continue talking, he suddenly heard a "bang" next to him, the door of the room opened, and a figure appeared main entrance.

Ye Junwen looked up, and there was a man in his forties, and he was obviously taken aback when he saw the situation in the room.Ye Junwen didn't know what to do at this time, the two sides looked at each other very strangely for a few seconds.

"Well, Lord City Master! The big thing is not good, there are assassins coming, please follow me to the safe room to hide!" Just when Ye Junwen didn't know what to do, the man in front of him suddenly said to Ye Junwen.
