C278 Big ambition

Ye Beiming looked at her devilish appearance, and smiled helplessly, "You just need to be the Crown Prince's consort."

"No, I want to be the City Lord!" Tong Ling was like a willful child now.

She hugged his arm, not shaking it coquettishly, but tightly grabbing it.

She said seriously, "Husband, I know that it is not allowed for women to be officials. Moreover, the appointment and removal of officials are decided by the Emperor.

But I'm the princess consort, so I can go through the back door and help her … Cough cough, the princess consort who is full of ambition. "

Ye Beiming's eyes subconsciously scanned her chest and immediately moved away as if he was electrocuted.

Lil Thing's eyes were very firm. He clearly knew that this was against the rules, but he still wanted to know what exactly she wanted to do.

He deliberately tightened his face and said with a hint of warning, "You must promise your husband not to abuse your authority."

"Yes, sir!" Tong Ling finally relaxed her expression and spoke in English. She even made a special military salute with a face full of ill intentions.

Ye Beiming didn't understand her words, but he could understand the gist of them from her actions.

He pursed his lips and gave a stifled laugh, his eyes following her. He wanted to see what this little thing was up to.

Tong Ling jumped onto a wall that was more than three meters tall. Then, she summoned Xiang Yue again and used her consciousness to chant the music of the Dragon Resisting Barrier.

Roar!

A dragon's roar that seemed to shake the heavens came from beyond the clouds. In the next instant, the gigantic white dragon came crashing down.

In the instant that the Dragon Resisting Barrier was formed, an enormous power was generated, shaking everyone present so much that they all stopped what they were doing, blankly looking up at the colossal dragon that had suddenly appeared.

Tong Ling leaped into the air and landed on the head of the dragon head, looking majestic!

According to her plan, these people should all be staring at her in shock, not even noticing that the golden brick in their hands had dropped.

Afterwards, she arrogantly announced her identity as the City Lord, giving them missions to clean up the mess in this city.

But!

The crowd was only shocked for a moment. Then, they immediately tried to snatch the golden bricks back. In fact, they even began to fight over them.

Tong Ling initially wanted to "anger the new official", but was ignored in the end. She could not help but throw out a bunch of lotus heart fire, and with a "hong" sound, it shattered the only intact house in the City Lord's Mansion.

This loud sound finally caused everyone to stop their movements, and they all looked at her in shock.

Tong Ling had a beautiful face as she scanned the chaotic City Lord's Mansion with a cold gaze.

The faces of those who were hit by her would change, and the golden bricks in their hands would drop with a "pa" sound.

Intimidate successful!

She had intimidated them not for the sake of acting cool, but to establish the prestige of the mayor.

It was only when they were afraid of her that they could carry out her orders.

Tong Ling slightly raised her chin and shouted domineeringly: "Citizens of Susu City, from now on, I am the Acting City Lord of Susu City!"

For a few seconds after she finished, there was silence. People just stared at her.

Tong Ling was probably too intimidated, so she quickly smiled like a flower and said, "There should be applause here."

Whoosh.

A round of enthusiastic applause immediately rose up from Susu City. However, it only lasted for a short period of time before it was over. The crowd immediately continued to scramble for the golden bricks.

Tong Ling gloomily discovered that she was really handsome for less than three seconds.

And these people were definitely talented. It was actually because they couldn't bear to put down the golden bricks in their hands. Some directly clapped with the golden bricks, while others simply tucked them under their arms and between their legs. It was simply …

Forget it, business is more important.

Now that the Zephyr Empire's garrison troops had not arrived, she had to rely on the people's power to subdue the Prefecture Soldiers s of the City Lord's Mansion!

She took a deep breath and shouted, "citizens of Su Su City, these City Lords' mercenaries have committed many evil deeds and have always been acting tyrannically. Everyone, take them down together!"

Right now, the commoners were all busy fighting over the golden bricks. How could they have the time to pay attention to her? They didn't even look at her.

The corner of Tong Ling's mouth twitched. She was already in an awkward situation. She could not help but roll her eyes and mutter in a small voice, "Look at how rich these people are."

"They are too poor." This was what Susu had said. Her face was solemn and she did not seem to be joking.

Tong Ling was originally a joke and did not truly think that these people were greedy for money. However, after hearing what Su Su said, she was deeply touched.

Indeed, he was afraid of poverty. Otherwise, why would he risk his life to snatch those golden bricks?

She rolled her eyes and continued to laugh, "Everyone, stop picking them up. Even if you do, I will have to take them back because I want to hand them over to the country.

You guys hurry up and arrest those people, so that I can repay you in terms of rewards. When the time comes, the gold bricks will be yours, and the ones in their hands will be yours as well. "

Her words were surprisingly effective. The moment she said those words, the situation immediately changed. Over ten thousand people simultaneously threw down the golden bricks in their hands and rushed towards the nearest mercenaries!

The commoners of Susu City were all slightly higher ranked than the Zephyr Empire. This was because guarding the Satan Forest was a unique condition; naturally, one would be stronger.

The citizens of the city swarmed over, with tens or even hundreds of people pouncing on one mercenary. Even those who were of high rank were unable to withstand the pressure of these tens of people.

Thus, within a short period of time, all of the Prefecture Soldiers s in the City Lord's Mansion had been captured.

"Mayor, we've caught them all."

"That's right, City Lord. We have pressed three, we must have another golden brick."

"City Lord, what do we do now? "We can only hold on for a moment. After a while, the people under us will also die."

The commoners called her "mayor" one by one, which made her even more aware of her status as the mayor.

She placed her hands behind her back and said loudly, "You two can continue to hold on for a while longer. This City Lord will think of a solution right now."

The moment she finished speaking, Susu suddenly walked up and smiled at her, "City Lord, do you need help?"

"Of course!" Tong Ling jumped down from the Dragon Resisting Barrier, held Su Su Su's hands with both of her hands, and said with an excited expression: "Sister Su Su, please help me prepare the Soul Suppressing Chains, the more the better.

Also, lend me a hundred of your Warbeast Trading Company's mercenaries. "

Susu laughed. "Alright, wait for me."

With that, she disappeared in a flash.

Tong Ling was very excited, because she did not expect the people of Su Su City to be so impressive, and actually caught those Prefecture Soldiers s so quickly.

She then looked at her husband and said, "My husband, do you know how powerful I am? It's easy to take care of them. "

However, she also wanted to keep a low profile, so she blinked her starry eyes and waited for him to praise her.

In the end, Ye Beiming just raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "And then? What are we going to do with them? "

Tong Ling was not praised so she was not very happy. She pouted and said, "Of course I've already thought about it."

Although these mercenaries were all tyrants, they were not necessarily evil people. They only followed Pi Youliang for the sake of gold coins, to have more gold to buy pills.

So the most fundamental reason was still to follow this world's law of survival: survival of the fittest.
