C682 City Lord Horton

Article 682. Lord of Horton

Everyone in the room turned around and saw that it was Lord of Horton who accidentally broke the teacup.

They immediately turned their heads back. After all, it was very awkward for Mayor to break the teacup by accident. They could not keep staring at it.

"Who are you? What's the matter here?"

These officials looked at Zhang Xing at the door, and one of them said with a cold expression.

"You don't know me?"

Zhang Xing asked curiously.

In the room, other than Horton and Jie Er who had opened the door, everyone else was new.

As the saying goes, a person can change a subject in a day. Horton held a letter of appointment, and as soon as he took office, he changed all the officials, big and small, to his trusted aides.

These people were all transferred from the business accounts of the various cities in the Family. How could he have the chance to know Zhang Xing?

"I know you? Who do you think you are? Castellan adult is having a meeting right now. Get out of here!"

An official said with disdain. Lord of Horton was the boss here, so they naturally did not need to give face to anyone else.

"Where did this little bastard come from? This is the City Lord's Mansion, don't you know you can't just barge in? Ask the guards to chase him out."

"Jie Er, go and call the captain of the guards over, ask him if he still wants to do it or not."

"Kid, what's your name? Which Family? I'll make sure your father is alright... "

" Crack crack crack! "

Before the official could finish his sentence, horton stepped forward and gave him three slaps, as well as a kick.

Thump!

The official fell to the ground and covered his swollen face with both hands. He looked at Castellan adult in confusion.

Why did you hit me? You're crazy! I didn't do anything wrong!

He felt so aggrieved that he wanted to cry.

He looked at Lord of Horton again. He hadn't even stopped. He had slapped the people who had spoken earlier and kicked them.

"How dare you! How dare you disrespect macrosoman! You've lived enough, do you want to die?!"

Horton was gasping for breath and sweating profusely.

"macrosoman? Which macrosoman?"

They had thought about the cephalo-, but they had never thought that there was a macrosoman in the Star Empire that could make Lord of Horton pay so much attention to him.

Oh, no! It should be said that they were afraid, or that they were afraid of death.

Horton did not bother to wipe the sweat off his face. He straightened his clothes and put on a flattering smile. He bowed and gave a greeting gift from a noble.

"Haha! Macrosoman did not even notify me when he came back. I will personally welcome you!"

"I've just taken up the post. Although I'm busy with work, you must receive me as soon as you arrive. Everything else is at the back of my mind."

In Horton's mind, Zhang Xing used to be his student, so there was no need for him to lower his voice. He just needed to treat him as an equal.1

As for why Zhang Xing was still alive, he planned to ask later.

First, he would chat with them to ease the atmosphere.

Although Zhang Xing was Mayor, that was already a thing of the past.

He was afraid that Zhang Xing would go crazy, and that he wouldn't care if he hit someone at the 321st step.

"Me? Who gave the order?"

Zhang Xing walked into the room and said coldly.

This mentor who had once blacklisted him had actually taken a fancy to this big piece of cake, the Redbud City. His mobility was quite good.

"This... is the unanimous decision of the Elders Guild to appoint me to take over your position."

Horton looked at Zhang Xing nervously, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

He had not seen Zhang Xing for more than a year, his aura was too powerful.

It was just two sentences, and it made him feel even more pressured, making it difficult for him to breathe.

The rumors about Zhang Xing had made his ears calluse.

He didn't want to hear it, but wherever he went, it was always about Zhang Xing. It was difficult for him not to hear it.

"How come I don't know? Bring your men back and ask if the Elders Guild has said something wrong."

"Or you misheard. Alright, you can leave now. "

Zhang Xing waved his hand and walked to Mayor's seat and sat down.
