Chapter 832 Important Information
After beating Fang He, Gu Chan's anger finally subsided.

Sitting at the stone table nearby, she stared at Xuan Xiao and said, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and untie the ropes on Lord Fang."

"Oh!" Xuan Xiao came back to his senses and responded, then hurriedly stepped forward to untie the rope tied around Fang He.

The funny thing is that as soon as Fang He regained his freedom, he suddenly curled up on the ground and started crying.

Everyone in the yard was stunned for a moment.

Gu Chan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said, "Master Fang! You are such a grown-up, but you are still crying like a child. You really opened my eyes!"

"Isn't it just opening the warehouse to release grain? It's not a big deal! You have to beat me up. I feel so wronged." Fang He said while crying.

Gu Chan put her hand on her forehead and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Zuo Gongming was so scared that he hurried forward, stretched out his hand to help Fang He up from the ground, and then helped him sit down at the stone table, and hurriedly apologized, "Lord City Lord, you are a magnanimous person, don't be too lenient with a little girl! She is really young and can't distinguish the importance of things."

"Brother Zuo, what you said is wrong. You want him to open the granary and release the grain. It's useless to kidnap his daughter! Now that I have tied him up, won't he be obedient after beating him up? This is the best strategy." Gu Chan said while holding back a laugh.

Zuo Gongming looked at her and smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.

Gu Chan pretended to be fierce and glared at Fang He and said, "Tell me! When are you going to open the warehouse and release the grain?"

"Girl, who are you? Why do you come to meddle in the affairs of our Linzhou City?" Fang He said with a sad face.

"What do you care who I am? When I see injustice, I help others. It's that simple. I tell you, you'd better write a letter and ask your people to open the granary and release the grain, otherwise I will have to beat you up." Gu Chan threatened.

Fang He lowered his head and said, "Miss, it's not that I don't want to open the warehouse to release the grain, it's just that this grain cannot be released!"

"Why can't we let go?" Gu Chan asked.

"I... I can only tell you that the grain stored in my city has long been ordered to be used as war reserves. Without the court's order, I dare not release a single grain of food." Fang He said bitterly.

Gu Chan was stunned at first, then her face suddenly changed and her expression became ugly.

Linzhou City is not far from Xuanyue City on the border. If the Diyue Kingdom wants to launch a war from the northern border, the first grain storage city must be Xuanyue City. Then the task of storing grain will be handed over to Linzhou City after Xuanyue City.

Doesn't this mean that the Diyue Kingdom had already made plans, first using Xuanyue City as a springboard and then using Linzhou City as a base for retreat?

"Damn, the Diyue Nation is really ambitious! They have already made plans. It seems that the last attack from Wuheng County failed, and now they have set their sights on the northern border."

Gu Chan cursed inwardly but didn't say much. She just silently memorized the information in her mind.

Fang He added, "Miss, if I open the granary to release the grain now, it would be equivalent to disobeying the imperial order, which is a capital crime. How dare I act recklessly? Besides, I have already issued a notice to move all the disaster victims to Xuanyue City. The Feng City Lord there will help them."

"You're not kidding me!" Gu Chan said coldly. "Everything I said was true, and to put it bluntly, it would be so easy for me to destroy these bandits, but until now, I haven't bothered with them too much. I also know that their lives are not easy, but I have no choice." Fang He complained bitterly.

Zuo Gongming learned the truth of the matter. Without any hesitation, he knelt in front of Fang He and said, "Lord City Lord, it seems that we have wronged you. In the name of the leader of Gaobang Village, I apologize to you on behalf of everyone in the village."

"Okay, get up! I just hope you don't cause trouble. Also, you are close to the border between the two cities. If you meet people coming from Xuanyue City, don't rob them. Be polite to them. Otherwise, you will anger the Lord of Feng City. If he wants to send troops to destroy you, I won't be able to stop him." Fang He reminded.

Zuo Gongming stood up from the ground and said with a relaxed look, "Don't worry, Lord City Lord. I know this. For example, when I led my brothers to hunt in Xuanyue City before, I accidentally ran into Master Feng who was knocked unconscious, and his two female guards. I didn't touch them, but sent someone to send them back to Zhaofeng Tower in Xuanyue City."

"Ah? What did you say?" Gu Chan exclaimed as Zuo Gongming just finished speaking.

Zuo Gongming looked at her dumbfounded and said, "Sister, what's wrong with you? Why are you reacting so strongly all of a sudden?"

"No, you just said that you sent someone to send Feng Hao and the other three back to Xuanyue City?" Gu Chan asked.

"Yes! We sent it back overnight. I guarantee that they didn't get hurt at all." Zuo Gongming guaranteed.

"Hahaha……"

Gu Chan, Xuan Xiao and the other three immediately burst into laughter.

Fang He, Zuo Gongming and others were all stunned and stood there, not understanding what they were laughing at.

After they stopped laughing, Fang He asked, "Girls, why are you laughing?"

"City Lord Fang, the one who knocked Feng Hao and the other two unconscious that night was none other than me." Gu Chan said with a wry smile.

"Oh my God! You are so bold! You even dare to touch the eldest son of the Feng family. No wonder you dare to beat me." Fang He exclaimed.

“这有什么不敢揍的，他一个劲儿的追我，还想娶我做媳妇儿呢！我是嫌他是个死变态，才想迷晕他把他甩了的，谁曾想，我迷晕他以后，前脚刚走，他们后脚就被左大哥等人碰上，还给他送回玄月城了呀！”顾婵大笑说。

She was still worried yesterday that Feng Hao and the other two would catch up with them, but judging from the current situation, she really didn't have to worry anymore. Even if she wasted a day or two here, it would be difficult for Feng Hao and the other two to catch up with them.

After a while of laughter, Gu Chan didn't want to dwell on this matter any more, so she returned to the point and said, "How about this, City Lord Fang, we also know your difficulties, so we won't force you to open the warehouse to release the grain. But as the city lord, you can't just ignore the lives of the victims under your rule, right?"

"When I go back, I will spend money to buy grain from the rice merchants in the city and provide porridge to help the victims. That should be fine, right?" Fang He said submissively.

"He's worthy of being the city lord! He looks like a corrupt official on the surface, but he's actually quite smart!" Gu Chan exclaimed.

Fang He smiled awkwardly, always feeling that Gu Chan was scolding him, but he didn't dare to get angry easily, for fear of getting beaten again.

After all, this little girl is really fearless. Not only does she dare to beat him, she even dares to touch a famous talent like the eldest son of the Feng family who is well-known in the border. So he had better be sensible and not suffer a loss in front of him.
