Chapter nine hundred and sixteenth
Baijiang City, in a jade shop facing southeast.
There is a dark room behind the shop, isolated by wooden boards, and it is difficult to find it casually. At this time, there were two people sitting opposite each other in the dark room.
"Don't act rashly! Zhuo Mufeng is very vigilant. Once the action is not successful, it will be even more difficult to attack him next time." A man said in a deep voice, most of his body was trapped in the darkness and could not see his face clearly.
The person on the opposite side smiled: "You have been in Sanjiang League for a long time. Have you lost confidence in the family? This is a plan made by the Great Elder himself and cannot be delayed!
As long as you can lead Zhuo Mufeng out of the City Lord's Mansion, that kid will definitely die. You might as well reveal a piece of information to you, the Great Elder is now outside Baijiang City.”
Hearing this, the man who had spoken was shocked and almost stood up, his eyes flashing. If the elder really did take action, then the probability of success in this operation would be very high.
After thinking about it, he hesitated: "Those guys from the Demon Sect have been studying the Wanhua Magical Art recently and should not care about Zhuo Mufeng. But I am really not sure that I can lead him out."
"You don't have to worry about this." The man on the opposite side handed out a piece of paper, and the man took it and found that it was a specific action plan. After reading it, he was silent for a while and said convincedly: "It is worthy of the work of the Great Elder. This makes you have a great chance to lead the boy out of the city."
"Do it well, the elder asked me to tell you that after doing this, you can return to the family. The family will treat you well!" The person opposite patted the man on the shoulder.
The man took a deep breath and a complex and difficult-to-understand look appeared on his dark face.
...
In less than a month, Lou Linxuan showed his strong ability to manage government, which made everyone in Sanjiang League look at him.
Although Lou Linxuan has not yet been exposed to all aspects of government affairs because of the short time, judging from the corresponding treatment methods such as population and taxation, it can be seen that his methods are clever.
Originally, a large number of refugees flocked to Baijiang Prefecture, which made the officials in the city unable to respond, resulting in chaos in management and errors in public security. After Lou Linxuan intervened, the context was quickly straightened out and gradually restored the stability of the past.
Not to mention Song Lele and others, even local officials praised Lou Linxuan.
Zhuo Mufeng thought a little deeper than others. Lou Linxuan was appointed as the assistant, but he did not interfere in key projects such as economy and city defense. Obviously, he realized that the Zhang family could not delegate power. He took action rashly and would only alert the enemy, so he started with some irrelevant matters.
In this way, even if the performance is excellent, people at the Zhang Family Quan will not be treated differently, but they will also shock the officials in Baijiang Prefecture and lay the foundation for future events.
This grasp of scale really surprised Zhuo Mufeng. He thought to himself that if he was not able to sort out these messy things, this ability to take weight was much worse.
Letting Lou Linxuan be responsible for these things was the most correct decision he made, and because of this, Zhuo Mufeng trusted the other party more and more.
This day is clear and clear. It is early spring. The grass grows and the birds fly, and the earth is covered with silver and there are a little bit of green.
Song Lele, Zhan Bai and He Dingbang finished their business and made an appointment to sit on the Fengfengtai in the city lord's mansion to drink, while enjoying the picturesque scenery outside the city while chatting.
"I really didn't expect that one day, we would be able to live on the territory of the city lord and enjoy the protection of soldiers day and night. Hehehe..." Song Lele raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl, smashed it, and his mind was bold.
When he heard this, even Zhan Bai and He Dingbang showed emotion on their faces.
Once upon a time, these people in the world were afraid of the government avoiding it. Apart from being alienated, weren’t they afraid of being afraid?
Although they are famous in the world, their family knows their own affairs and meets city lords, even if they are the leader Wu Guanting, they must be careful to smile.
In Gusu City, if the city lord had a little trouble, the Sanjiang League's family business would not be collapsed in an instant, but at least it would be in big trouble.
This is also why every top force is trying to establish good relations with the local government. Do you think that if you have high martial arts skills, you can be arrogant and kill people if you are unhappy?
Perhaps only young people who have never entered the world will have such naive and naive ideas. If this is the case, the world will be in chaos long ago. There are no enemies in this world. No matter how strong a person is, he cannot defeat the court and the government.
Why don’t those few legendary masters in the world interfere in secular affairs? Is it really too high and I am separated from the mundane world? There are reasons why the five dynasties and even the twelve holy lands secretly promoted it!
For most people in the martial arts world, if one day they can get rid of their turbulent body and get an official position, even if they are just a small official, they will be overjoyed.
But who except those who are the best have this opportunity?
The officialdom is strict, not to mention the internal major forces are fighting, and there are also the twelve holy places who are afraid that the court will absorb the power of the rivers and lakes and constantly obstruct them, resulting in a clear distinction between the rivers and lakes and the court, and it is difficult to enter the sky.
Song Lele and others worked hard in the Sanjiang League for so many years. In addition to loyalty, they also worked for their families.
Unexpectedly, after many disasters, not only did they not retreat, but instead became an official in disguise, but also became a blessing in disguise. The immediate superior was still the governor of a state, and the key governor was still the son-in-law, so he had to be more free and free.
"It's a pity that the leader and his wife are not here, and our family members are all hiding in the secret stronghold and cannot show up for the time being, otherwise it will be perfect!" He Dingbang thought of the Wu Guanting couple who were imprisoned, and his smile was mostly gone.
They didn't know that Wu Guanting was taking advantage of the opportunity to imprison and secretly practiced the Nine Heavens True Sutra, just thought that the leader had suffered a great humiliation and wanted to replace him.
Zhan Bai said very little, but his attitude was more firm than anyone else: "I have to save my lifelong power, and I must save the leader and his wife, and I will do whatever I want!"
"Okay, I'm fine!" With a loud laugh, Wu Kang, who had broken his left arm, stepped up the steps and arrived at Yingfengtai.
He Dingbang shouted, "Why are you here? Didn't you accompany Lao Lou to handle affairs outside the city?"
Wu Kang shook his head and said, "There are too many refugees, and they don't listen to advice. Don't drink it first. Laolou asked me to call you to maintain order together. If you go too late, what if Laolou has a good time..."
When Song Lele and the other two could not sit still after hearing this, everyone knew that except for the son-in-law, Lou Linxuan was the most important person among them. Whether he could take root and accumulate strength was crucial. Lou Linxuan would never make any mistakes.
"Old Wu, lead the way!" He Dingbang said impatiently.
The four of them flew away from the stage together. When they were halfway, Wu Kang suddenly whispered: "Old He, go and call your uncle. Lao Lou said that he had discovered a very secret matter outside the city, and he must go to the scene to check it in person.
Lao Lou ordered that now the safety of your son-in-law is the top priority. You can take your son-in-law through the back door of the city lord's mansion and find someone to disguise yourself as your son-in-law, so as to attract possible spies, and you will have a supporter when you arrive at the city gate. Hurry!"
After saying that, Wu Kang flew away without giving He Dingbang the time to react.
They have been old brothers for many years, and I don’t know how many times they have been born and die. Song Lele and Zhan Bai didn’t think much about it and followed closely.
He Dingbang was just a little surprised, but thinking that Lou Linxuan's arrangement was so cautious, he felt that it was important and quickly turned around.
Bypassing the stone corridors and corners everywhere, He Dingbang came to the outside of the city lord's courtyard, knocked on the door, and heard the word "entering in", he hurriedly reached out and pushed it away, strode in.
"Uncle He, why are you here?" Zhuo Mufeng was sitting bored on the stone bench under the tree, with a little sadness in his expression. This guy found out with conscience that he remembered Su Zhilan just now, and even remembered the three-year agreement between the two.
But now three and a half years have passed, and he still has not been able to fulfill his contract, and he feels very frustrated and ashamed. When he saw Wu Kang coming, he barely put away the expression on his face.
He Dingbang walked forward, looked around, and said in a voice transmission: "Son-in-law, Lao Lou asked me to call you outside the city, saying that he had discovered a very secret matter!"
"What confidential matter?" Zhuo Mufeng frowned when he heard He Dingbang say solemnly.
He Dingbang smiled bitterly: "I don't know the specific matters either."
"I don't even know Uncle He?" Zhuo Mufeng's first reaction was that something big happened, but a dark intuition made him feel something was wrong.
Lou Linxuan cared about his safety and reminded himself several times that he should not leave the city lord's mansion unless he had no choice. How could he send someone to notify him of leaving the city now?
There was a little more doubt and harshness in Zhuo Mufeng's eyes, but He Dingbang was reckless and did not notice it.
He also stepped forward and grabbed Zhuo Mufeng's arm, and while pushing him, he said, "Son-in-law, don't delay. Lao Lou said that I will take you through the back door and send someone to dress you up to attract attention. After you and I meet with you, I will leave secretly. It seems that things are very important, and you must be present!"
Zhuo Mufeng asked with a smile: "Uncle He was at the scene at that time. Didn't he even know the inside story?"
He Dingbang exclaimed injustice: "Where am I at the scene? I was drinking in Yingfengtai just now, but Lao Wu hurried over and pulled Lao Song and Lao Zhan away, and asked me to notify you."
Zhuo Mufeng suddenly caught the point: "Old Wu, Wu Kang and Uncle Wu? So, Uncle Wu asked you to notify me, and he also received Uncle Lou's order?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" He Dingbang said in confusion. He had no doubt about Wu Kang, and he didn't even have the idea of doubt, so he wouldn't care about Zhuo Mufeng's inquiries.
Zhuo Mufeng was slightly stunned and smiled: "It seems that things are really important. Uncle He, you go to the back door to wait for me first. I will change my clothes and find a replacement."
"Okay, then son-in-law, I'll go first." He Dingbang was in a hurry, without any doubts, and immediately jumped out.
After he left, the smile on Zhuo Mufeng's face completely dissipated, but there was only a coldness.
With his understanding of He Dingbang and his observation just now, the other party should have no problem. If there is a ghost in his heart, he will not be able to push himself, looking impatient.
On the contrary, Wu Kang, if things are really that important, why doesn’t the other party come to find him, but instead let He Dingbang, who is reckless, come over?
Of course, this may also be a one-sided statement from He Dingbang, and it is not ruled out that the other party has superb acting skills.
In short, in his opinion, today's events are really flawed. Zhuo Mufeng doesn't believe it when it comes to his own life and death. But there is only one thing that is clear that there must be spies around him, and he must take the opportunity to find them out.
In addition, if the old thing he guessed took action, it seemed like a good opportunity to use the trick!
