Chapter 64 The people have the final say (2)
Since the first meeting, Xiao Yu has believed that Liang Chenxing is not an ordinary girl.
But she is so bold and confident, far beyond Xiao Feng's perception.
Among this large group of young men and women, she was not very tall, but she seemed to be the leader.
Elder Lu had been so angry that he was even more angry when he saw a 10-year-old girl dared to criticize him in person.
He looked at Liang Ruoru coldly and said sarcastically: "Mr. Liang is indeed from a family background, and the female master is well educated!"
Liang Ruoru didn't care whether Elder Lu was sincere or false, but he just felt that this was really about his heart.
He smiled and hugged his fists: "Thank you, Elder Lu for your praise. With such an outstanding daughter, I feel that there is light on my face!"
If it were on weekdays, such arrogant words would definitely make many people uncomfortable, but everyone saw Liang Chenxing's performance just now and felt that this girl was indeed very good at teaching.
Seeing that no one refuted Liang Ruoru, Elder Lu said again: "The selection of the city lord is the top priority of Ruoshui City. How can you, a group of young children, interfere with it!"
Liang Chenxing said again: "The city lord is the city lord of hundreds of thousands of people. We children are also the people in the city. Why can't we participate in the discussion?"
Tang Hulu behind her also said, "Does the elders had a bad breasts decades ago. Did you think the same thing at that time?"
"You..." Elder Lu stretched out his trembling hand and pointed forward: "You are clearly colluding and deliberately suppressing Mrs. Li and the young master in the name of the people!"
Xiao Gui said loudly: "Why should people be in a relationship with each other? Miss Liang just said it well, the people should have the final say in Ruoshuicheng!
If the people can trust Mr. Xiao, I will do my best to protect the safety of Wushui City just like in the past two years, so that everyone can live a prosperous and stable life.
If the people cannot trust Xiao and think I am not suitable to continue to be the city lord, then I will leave immediately and never step into the weak water city again!"
Elder Lu is really anxious.
According to his previous thoughts, exposing Princess Yiyang's identity today will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people. If Li comes forward, their purpose will definitely be achieved.
Unexpectedly, such a sudden attack failed to disrupt Princess Yiyang's position, but instead forced them to a dead end.
He has always disagreed with the custom of Ruoshuicheng's increasingly unconventional and regular rules.
Like a man, a woman went to school since childhood, and she grew up her heart.
Not only can you compete with men in every aspect, but you dare to get along with them if you are dissatisfied. It doesn't look like you.
He thought that most of the men in Ruoshui City had the same idea as him, but now it seems something is wrong...
Master Lu, who had not interrupted, saw that his father could not hold back and stood up and said, "Princess Yiyang is serious?"
Huan Yu kept staring at him and stood up and said, "Is Master Lu questioning the character of the city lord?"
Master Lu said: "I don't have this intention, but Ruoshuicheng has a population of hundreds of thousands, and there are only a thousand people present at the moment. How can we represent public opinion?"
This is just a scoundrel.
Among the people present, most of them were encouraged by the Lu family father and son to come to the city lord's mansion to cause trouble, while the small part were young men and women from the academy.
If the elder Lu's faction was the one who had the upper hand at this time, would Mr. Lu say such things that cannot represent the public opinion?
Obviously not.
Xiao Ying smiled and said, "Master Lu's idea coincides with the city lord. I also feel that such a thousand people cannot represent the public opinion of Ruoshui City.
Why don’t we go out of the city lord’s mansion now, gather the people together, and ask them in person what they mean?"
"Okay!" Master Lu was afraid that his father would regret it, so he immediately made a decision.
Surrounded by everyone, Xiao Yan, Huan Yu, Lu family father and son and Li walked out of Jinsongtang.
The people who failed to squeeze into Jinsong Hall automatically gave up a path and followed behind and rushed towards the gate of the city lord's mansion.
At this time, there were already crowds of people outside the gate, and almost all well-informed people were rushing to the city lord's mansion, and there were more and more people.
The appearance of Xiao Jen and others almost made the scene out of control.
She quickly glanced around and saw Hua Qinghan and his guards working hard to maintain order. Hua Hou, Mrs. Hua, and even Concubine Hua arrived.
"City Lord, we are here too..." Manager Tang and a large group of craftsmen also rushed towards the gate.
Xiao Yan was greatly moved.
Ruoshuicheng is just a foreign land for her, but there are so many people who are willing to follow her and support her.
In this way, what else can she be afraid of, and what reason does she have to not be a good city lord?
She used her internal strength and shouted: "Everyone is quiet, I have something to say."
The sound was very far away, and even those who had just arrived could hear it very clearly.
Everyone stopped talking consciously, and the scene suddenly became quiet.
Xiao Xiang continued to shout: "Since everyone has come here, they must have heard rumors.
In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, the city lord personally informs everyone of the truth here."
A middle-aged man following Hua Qinghan and very tall, said, "We have all heard that you are not the cousin of the old city lord, nor the husband of the eldest girl, but the legitimate sister of the Queen of the Great Wei Dynasty, Princess Yiyang, Princess Xiao Eun."
No one likes to be disrupted at critical moments, and Xiao Yan is no exception.
But she could feel that this person was not malicious, and that he was so close to Hua Qinghan, it was obvious that he could not have been here to make trouble.
She smiled and hugged her fists: "What this elder brother said is not bad. I really don't call him Shangguan Nanxiao, but Princess Yiyang Xiao Eun."
As soon as this said, a man in a long blue gown shouted loudly: "Since you are from Wei, you are not qualified to be our city lord!"
The tall man said before: "This is such a big joke! Since the first establishment of Ruoshui City more than a hundred years ago, there has been no rule that people from other countries will not be allowed to move in.
In fact, whose ancestors did not come from the surrounding countries for hundreds of thousands of people in the city?
Not to mention the other people, the people of the Five Wanjin Kingdom, more than 20 years ago, all took refuge with their wife to this place in order to avoid the persecution of Emperor Ji'an.
Over the years, they have never been excluded, and everyone treats them like their own people.
Why did you get to the city lord’s place and the treatment is different?”
"How can this be the same?" The man in blue said in a louder voice: "The people of Wuwanjin have always been obedient and become the people of Wushui City, and have not competed for the position of the city lord."
Xiao Ying said: "This gentleman seems to have a lot of dissatisfaction with the city lord?"
The man in green clothes said: "I am just a matter of fact. As a princess, I am indeed not suitable to be the lord of Ruoshui City."
Manager Tang asked loudly: "Princess Yiyang has been the city lord for more than two years. Has anyone seen her doing something wrong with Ruoshuicheng?"
