When it was dawn, the heavy rain in Yiyang had stopped. Although the road was muddy, only horse hooves could be heard. Teams of soldiers were galloping around Yiyang City, and some soldiers shouted loudly, saying that the whole city was martial law and the city gate was closed. There was no need to do anything, and all people were not allowed to go out.

It rained heavily for a day and the road was difficult to move. Most people would not travel at this time. However, martial law was established. It was obvious that something big happened. Some curious people all guessed something, and neighbors gathered together and talked a lot.

A city wall in the south of Yiyang City was the lowest point in the city. At this time, a group of patrolling soldiers suddenly shouted, and then in the thick fog in the morning, they found a group of people sending people under the city wall with ropes. The soldiers quickly surrounded them and surrounded the group of people who had not had time.

There were sixteen or seventeen of these people, including men and women, and even a four or five-year-old child. These people also carried weapons and immediately pulled out the weapons. The two sides were tense and fought.

After a moment of melee, the women and children in the crowd started to cry, and the four or five people who had escaped outside the city were also crying under the city wall, and suddenly became a mess.

In the blink of an eye, both sides suffered casualties and the battle became more and more intense. At this moment, a leader came with a team of men and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

When the soldiers heard the commander's order, they slowly retreated. The group of people were holding weapons and taking strict precautions.

Han Lu shouted and stopped the fight between the two sides. He was the leader of the two guards in the city gate and the eighth-rank official. He walked up to the front and asked a middle-aged man among the group: "Brother Wang Hong, I didn't expect to see you here. It's so a pity!"

Wang Hong was covered in blood at this moment, with countless wounds on his body, and a look of fatigue. He looked at Han Lu and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Brother Han, is it the city lord who sent you to capture me?"

Han Lu frowned, glanced at the group of people, then waved his hand and said to the soldiers guarding the city: "The Lord of the City, order me to take these people back, you all go down for me."

The soldiers guarding the city who had just fought cleaned the battlefield and left here with their dead and injured brothers.

Han Lu then said to Wang Hong: "Brother Wang, go with me alone to the city lord!"

Wang Hong looked back at the people around him, panicked, his clothes were broken, and he smiled bitterly, "Thank you, Brother Han, I have accepted your favor. Unfortunately, I don't know if there is a chance to repay you."

At this time, the rope on the city wall had been cut off. Han Lu asked his soldiers to get another rope and let these people escape along the rope, and then took Wang Hong back.

Wang Hong hid in a car and arrived at the city lord's mansion. Han Road asked someone to report it. After a while, Wang Hong was taken to a secret room.

Lord Zhou and some of his men under him sat in the secret room. Wang Hong arrived at the secret room. Lord Zhou had no extra words and asked directly: "Wang Hong, why did you fail last night? You are the parties involved, explain the details to me carefully!"

At this time, Wang Hong realized that the actions of the royal clan and the Huang clan failed last night. It was not because of the City Lord Zhou who caused trouble and killed people with a knife. Otherwise, he would not have asked him for details, and would not have met him, just kill him with one knife.

Wang Hong is 45 years old this year, an eight-star warrior. He is in his prime and an eighth-rank official in the court. At this moment, when he heard the words of the Lord Zhou, he burst into tears. He knelt down and whined: "Master Lord, my Wang family has let down your trust! That Shisanlang of the Li family, he is not a human being, he is simply a monster. He alone actually killed a team of Yin warriors from the Huang clan, and commanded the Yin warriors from the Li family to kill most of the elites of my royal clan. He, he..."

Wang Hong fainted suddenly.

Lord Zhou was angry and hated, and ordered the doctor to come and wake up Wang Hong. After he woke up, he asked him to tell him what happened last night, which made people take him down.

Lord Zhou, Mr. Lu, Mr. Zhao and others received reports from their spies last night and had some understanding of what happened last night. However, when the parties involved told them in detail, they still let them take a breath.

Lord Zhou slapped the table hard, "This Li Shisan is so hateful. I didn't expect that he was so powerful. Just a dozen natal seals were so powerful. Ah, I understand, no wonder that bitch Yun Caier valued him so much. It turned out that he had already known that his potential was amazing. Alas, I didn't expect that the Shishi Warrior with more than 40 people would not destroy the Li family. If I had known the situation today, I would have sent a few more people to destroy the Li family. Unfortunately, that bitch Yun Caier will definitely be on guard in the future and will not give us another opportunity to take advantage of it. Mr. Lu, you said, we will send someone to secretly whistle Li Shisan, what do you think?"

Mr. Lu touched his short beard and hurriedly said, "No, absolutely not. This matter must not be done. Not to mention that the enemy will be prepared for it. Even if he really killed Li Shisan, if he left clues during the assassination, we would be in danger. Fortunately, we did not participate too deeply in the family destruction case and had no handle to stay. The princess just wanted to bite you out of the city lord, it would be impossible. But now she took this opportunity to blatantly participate in government affairs and seize all power. This is what we should worry about. As for Li Shisan, a mere child, even if he is a genius, it will take several years to grow up. We have time to destroy him."

Mr. Zhao next to him also said, "Yes, now the princess stretched out her hand in, using the excuse to purify the public security in Yiyang and put her men in. This is the biggest threat to the city lord!"

Lord Zhou scolded hatefully: "Yes, this bitch actually took advantage of this opportunity and wanted to seize my power. I would never tolerate it. Otherwise, when this example is opened, the families in Yiyang will run to her when they see me surrender. This is a very dangerous signal. We must destroy it hard. I ordered my subordinates to give her a soft and hard block. I see her orders, and who dares to listen to them."

Mr. Lu smiled slightly, "I don't think this is necessary. The princess wants to seize power so clearly, I think this is a good thing!"

Lord Zhou and a group of strategists looked at Mr. Lu in surprise. If someone else said this, he must have been on the big mouth long ago. However, Mr. Lu has always been very wise and has always known these people and are impressed by him, so they are all waiting for his following.

Mr. Lu touched his beard and continued, "First, the princess is so clear that he wants to seize power, so the city lord will report this matter to the prince, and the prince must pay attention to it. Even if he doesn't have money to ask for people, the prince will be worried and will be sent down."

As soon as this sentence was said, everyone suddenly realized it. They all admired and praised it.

After some politeness, Mr. Lu continued, "Second, the princess has long wanted to seize power. She was just preparing before. Now she wants to fight with us, which was exposed at once, and reminded us that she can fight with her upright in the future without worrying as before. She doesn't know what strategy she wants to use to deal with us. Now she can see clearly that she wants to install people, promote people, and squeeze us out of Yiyang. Haha, this is easy to deal with."

Lord Zhou couldn't help but say, "Sir, great talent, he has a good analysis, but I just don't know what countermeasures he has?"

Mr. Lu laughed and said, "We are tolerant. We must cooperate with each other, whatever the county does. We will give her the position she wants! We even have to double the power."

"Ah?" Lord Zhou was stunned.

Mr. Lu ignored his face and continued: "In the past, most of the people who followed us were among the top ten nobles. Hehe, most of these positions are controlled by them. If someone robs their power, we don't have to do it, then there will naturally be people fighting with them."

Lord Zhou fully understood and laughed, "Mr.'s analysis is so reasonable. Yiyang City is intricate and is all the forces of the top ten nobles. If this woman wants to seize power, she will not be able to help but fight with her. Haha, this is definitely not us!"
