Chapter 140: The rain is coming and the wind is full of buildings

As the competition approaches, the atmosphere in Yangzhou City is clearly different.

Teams of soldiers walked up to the streets to search, and the curfew time was also ahead of schedule.

The citizens of the city were anxious and didn't know what happened. They thought it was the government who intended to control the spread of the Li Yu incident.

In fact, there are also considerations in this regard, but more because the competition is coming.

This competition between the governor's mansion and the Count's mansion is no longer just a fiefdom dispute.

It is an important game represented by the two sides.

I don’t know how many times there have been controversies in the court, but in the end it attracted two major governors to write a letter to each other, which led to the current competition and such rules.

At that time, not only the county magistrate of Jiangxia County, Luo Chuannan, will be present in person, but the royal court of Xuanping Zhang Ao and Zhao Huang also will be sent here.

Some are judges, some are supportive!

A competition touched everyone's hearts, and Yangzhou City was in a hurry.

And ordinary people naturally don’t know about these things.

What they are concerned about is Li Yu’s affairs.

After several days of reports, one after another, and after word of mouth from the people, it finally began to ferment!

Li Yu became synonymous with evil officials, indulging his relatives to deceive the people and occupy land, and acted as his protective umbrella. He even made a fortune from the Jin Risheng Grain Store, abandoning the people...

However, even after a few days, the government still had no movement, and everything about Li Yu was as usual.

Even soldiers began to warn them not to spread rumors, and those who were serious were arrested and went to the government.

The people all know that this is the protection of officials and they have begun to shelter...

People found that even the latest issue of Fuyang tabloids no longer mentioned it.

Did the governor start taking action?

The people thought that some people began to keep silent, but more people accumulated resentment in their chest cavity, and perhaps they would explode if they were just waiting for a single thread.

Sometimes the more oppressed you are, the more powerful you will resist...

Compared with the solemn atmosphere outside, the Earl's Mansion is a joyful atmosphere.

Wang Kang returned to the former prodigal son.

Hu Tianhai, who brought two girls all day long, drank and had fun. He mentioned that he had brought the hot pot from his previous life to the present, and it was very popular.

The family is eating hot pot and drinking wine. Not to mention how beautiful this little life is.

Mother Su Rong enjoyed this kind of harmony and wanted to do this every day.

Only Wang Kang noticed the concern that his father Wang Dingchang showed from time to time.

The battle for fiefdoms is under the harsh and unfair rules. It seems that the Earl's Mansion has no chance of winning at all.

What will be the result of losing?

Not only will the fiefdom be lost, but it also means that the game will eventually end in failure, which will further encourage the arrogance of the elders and the days ahead will be more difficult...

How can we maintain today's joy and peace?

It was evening, the sun set and the temperature was cool. A faint smoke arose in Wang Kang's courtyard and a rich scent of flesh drifting.

He was having barbecue again.

The girls all put down their reserve and ate a feast. Su Zhe picked up the wine glass and drank the iced beer in one go.

"It's great!" He burped, rolled up his sleeves, picked up another skewer, and ate it.

"Cousin, it's still comfortable here. There are so many things to do with us. This is not allowed or unwilling to do with that,"

Su Zhe's face was flushed and he was already drunk. He leaned over to Wang Kang and whispered: "To be honest, I'm also very annoyed by my grandfather's kindness of corrupt scholar!"

"Haha," Wang Kang laughed after hearing this, "After the competition, you can still stay here. As long as you want, you want to stay."

"Cousin, let me find a girl!"

"Really?" Su Zhe's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said dejectedly: "The family is too strict, I have never experienced it yet... It's not like my cousin who has two cousin's wife and beautiful wife, it's really enviable!"

Hearing this, seeing Su Zhe’s appearance at the moment, even Lin Yuyan and Li Qingman couldn’t help but laugh.

"Small questions, these are all small questions!" Wang Kang patted Su Zhe on the shoulder, "Leave it to me!"

"By the way, will the competition be held the day after tomorrow?" Su Zhe asked again.

"Yes," Wang Kang nodded.

"Yang Xiuwen is indeed very skilled, and he has a great reputation in his paintings," Su Zhe shook his head and said, "It's just that this person is too arrogant. He doesn't care about Master Luo behind his back."

"My cousin has dealt with him once and has also knocked off his teeth." Wang Kang said with a smile.

"Ah, is that true?" Su Zhe said in surprise.

So Wang Kang told him what happened in heaven and earth that day.

After hearing this, Su Zhe praised Wang Kang, "My cousin is still amazing!"

"However, although Yang Xiuwen is shameful, he is indeed very talented in painting," Su Zhe said again: "My level is comparable to that, and who is stronger then depends on his performance on the spot."

"I'm going to go out for field trips tomorrow, looking for inspiration, striving to reach the best state, and participate in the competition!"

"There will be a cousin in this way," Wang Kang paused and said, "But I have other things tomorrow and can't accompany you. So I will arrange for the family members to accompany you, okay?"

"You don't need to accompany you. There are too many people and you will be confused. Just arrange for someone to lead the way for me!" Su Zhe waved his hand.

"Since that's the case, I wish my cousin to make a shocking painting and defeat Yang Xiuwen!" Wang Kang picked up the wine glass and said with a smile.

"You should do your best!" Su Zhezhen said seriously.

"By the way, isn't Fuyang tabloid writing about Li Yu anymore?" Lin Yuyan interrupted at this time.

"No need for now. His affairs have been finished, and we are waiting to continue to ferment," Wang Kang sneered: "Today, Dong Yiwu has sent someone to suppress the public's ban!"

"He can seal the people's mouths, but he cannot seal the people's hearts! I will hold the pen myself the day after tomorrow, use the pen as a knife to cut through the shackles and inspire the people's hearts..."

"Youyou, I see if he can stop it!"

Wang Kang's voice was chilling, "I want Dong Yiwu to end Li Yu himself. He wants to use the power of the people behind him to suppress our Earl's Mansion, so I will use this power to achieve my goal."

"Everything will be the day after tomorrow!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the few people became solemn. They all understood how important this competition was to the Earl's Mansion...

"Then how are you preparing?" Lin Yuyan asked again: "You still have a trial strategy, and your opponent is Dong Qian!"

"The strategy and arguments are not like poetry and prose, they need to be correct, proficient, and profound."

"I just hope that Dong Qian can bring me some surprises. If it is too weak, it will be boring."

Wang Kang stood up and saw a dark cloud floating in the distance, covering the sunset that was about to retreat.

The sky became dark and there were gusts of wind.

The storm is about to come and the wind fills the building!
