Chapter 38: It's all about acting

At the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the two Dongfang Han brothers waited here for Dongfang Li's arrival, and Zhuang Zi slaughtered the City Lord's Mansion before leaving, waiting for a new order.

As soon as they saw Dongfang Li appear, the two of them stepped forward happily and said, "Dad, the inner city and the outer city have been successfully controlled, and the officials in the city are temporarily imprisoned, just waiting for you to save them." ”

"Han'er, Qi'er, you two brothers are considered to have grown up, and they both behaved well today." Dongfang Li looked at the two brothers with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Zhucheng is basically controlled now, but we still need the support of the family in the outer city, let's go and sort out the wealth of the city lord's mansion first, and then go back to the outer city Hou Mansion." I think the housekeeper has informed the clansmen that they must go to the Jue's Mansion tonight to discuss matters, and doing great things is inseparable from the support of relatives and friends. ”

Dongfang Han's killing in the City Lord's Mansion didn't seem to have any effect on him, and he said calmly: "Dad, I have found the warehouse of the City Lord's Mansion, there are really a lot of things in it, and I also found that this City Lord has also established a small warehouse to treasure his own private property." ”

"Let's go over and have a look." Dongfang Li took the two brothers into the depths of the city lord's mansion.

The warehouse of the City Lord's Mansion is placed underground, and the spiral-shaped passage is surrounded by glowing pearls, which extend downward, and after entering, it is like walking on the ground, and there are no traps around the passage.

"Dad, there are more than ten large warehouses here, which are places to store gold and silver, as well as five huge grain warehouses, a warehouse for weapons and armor, and an iron ore warehouse." Dongfang Han went all the way down and explained all the way to Dongfang.

When Dongfang left the end of the belt, he found that there were sixteen warehouse doors open around him, among which the number of jewels in the warehouse where gold and silver were stored, although the number was not as large as that on Longclaw Island, but it was also more than the warehouse in Zhujiabao.

It took him some time, and everything except food was exchanged for qi value, and the two Dongfang Han brothers did not have anything unusual about this, they thought that Dongfang Li had just taken things away with the Qiankun Ring.

After exchanging the qi value, the father and son prepared to return to the Marquis's Mansion, while the inner city was led by Zhuang Zhongxian, a peerless master who had changed his life for a thousand years, and more than a dozen grandmaster masters, while Nie Hu, the new general of the God of War Army, accompanied him with hundreds of soldiers.

The father and son came to the outside of the Jue Mansion, looked at the clansmen coming in and out of the gate of the Jue Mansion, and thought of Dongfang Li's past in a trance.

Longyan County Dongfang family in a few decades ago originally only three or two big cats and kittens, although they are descendants of the royal family, but they have never been talented, has been very down, since out of the East, under the auspices of his master Qianxu, the entire Longyan County Dongfang surname people have united together to establish the Zhucheng Dongfang family.

Dongfang Li's room is regarded as a descendant, and the others are branch collaterals.

At the time when Dongfang Li was in high spirits, the family also got huge benefits, ushered in several rapid development, as Dongfang Li entered the Yu Wangfu Mansion to worship the Qianfu Sect, the people in the family began to emerge in Longyan County, some became officials, some entered the sect, some did business, and the clansmen from all walks of life took care of each other, the officials became bigger and bigger, and the businessmen became more and more rich, and the people who worshiped the sect were also valued and cultivated by the elders of the sect under the care of the family's money and relationships.

Longyan County today has many strong Dongfang families, not only with great grandmasters, but also with the support of several grandmasters, and their wealth is like a sea.

When Dongfang Li was injured and bedridden, some people chose to leave the family, and a smart person in order to prevent internal strife in the family, let several respected family elders form a family old group to replace the rights of the head of the family.

The elders of the family are responsible for protecting the dead of the family, they are not long in life, but their strength is very strong, after all, people who have cultivated for nearly a hundred years, even if their talent is poor, their strength should not be underestimated.

After the establishment of the family veteran group, Dongfang Li's rights and resources in the family were divided, and when he went out to Qinghe to recuperate, Dongfang Liang, the old family member of the clan, took the opportunity to occupy the Jue Mansion.

"It's time to take it back." Dongfang Li said to himself.

The Marquis's Mansion, in the main hall, is like a court of deliberations, there are seventy or eighty people sitting on the left and right, and there are some juniors standing behind the people who are sitting, there are about two hundred people, and the huge main hall is a little crowded at this time.

When there were many people, there was a buzz in the main hall, discussing in low voices, showing off loudly, praising each other, and boasting about themselves.

Both standing and sitting clansmen were busy interacting with each other, and the atmosphere was warm and friendly.

"The head of the house has arrived!"

As soon as Dongfang Li arrived at the door of the main hall, the servants in the door shouted loudly, just like the emperor went to court.

Moment!

There was silence in the main hall, and the eyes of hundreds of people were staring directly at Dongfang Li, who walked in from the door.

Everyone is a high-ranking official and a wealthy person, and his vision is naturally extraordinary, when Dongfang Li walked in, he saw that his breath was uncertain, his face was pale, and he walked a little staggeringly.

This appearance made everyone in the clan suspicious, "Could it be that the head of the family is in a hurry to summon the clansmen because the time has come and he wants to pass on the throne?" ”

Although they thought so in their hearts, everyone was a person with a city in their hearts, and no matter what they had in their hearts, their mouths were extremely enthusiastic.

"Meet the head of the family, I hope the head of the family will recover soon!"

"Oh, I haven't seen Qi'er grow so big in a few years, come to my uncle's side and let me see."

"Hey, is this Han'er, Dongfang Han, why did you come back from the Thousand Fu Sect, and you didn't come to your uncle's house to play when you came back, it's too outward."

The atmosphere in the main hall was harmonious, Dongfang knew that everyone was like this now, and he couldn't figure out his purpose today, if there was a conflict of interest, everyone would immediately turn their faces, and they must not lower their vigilance because of the current atmosphere.

Dongfang Li was very skillful in coping, he had been secretly observing since he entered the main hall, and he found that the two great masters of the Dongfang family in Zhucheng had not appeared today.

When Dongfang Li sat down on the throne of the head of the house, the seated clansmen stood up and saluted.

"Meet the head of the house!"

Even those who had left the Oriental family stood up and saluted.

"You're glad you guys suffered!" Dongfang Li got up and said: "More than ten years ago, I was seriously injured and couldn't preside over the affairs of the clan, it was you who supported this family, so that I could heal with peace of mind, and I thank you here today." ”

"The head of the family, you are too polite, it is our common responsibility to be able to contribute to the clan and the head of the family!" An old man with white hair arched his hand.

Dongfang Li is familiar with this person, he is Dongfang Liang's father Dongfang Li, that is, his cousin, who has always wanted Dongfang Li to pass on the title to his grandson.

Looking at him, it seems that he doesn't know that Dongfang Liang was abolished by Dongfang Qi.

"Yes, yes, the head of the house is too polite, this is what we should do."

The other clansmen also kept nodding their heads and talking nonsense.

Dongfang Li looked at everyone, sighed and said: "I have not cared about the affairs of the clan for more than ten years, and now I don't want to interfere in the affairs of the clan, for fear of affecting the unity of the clan, today I want to take advantage of this to resign as the head of the family, you choose another meritorious, I don't know what you think?" ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard it, this is to play like that.

Some of the clansmen lowered their heads, some frowned and pondered, and some secretly exchanged voices and discussions with each other, but no one spoke.

They are all beneficiaries of the organization of the Oriental Family, and they have enjoyed the convenience of this family organization for decades, and no one wants to lose it.

The current clansmen are accustomed to having a family head who doesn't care about things, but if they want Dongfang to leave the family, who of them dares to ensure that all kinds of interests are not lost, after all, they do things under the banner of Dongfang Li.

The main hall was silent again, and no one dared to speak first.

At this critical moment, people who are not famous enough dare not talk nonsense, and those who are famous do not dare to express their positions.

So Dongfang Caracal didn't speak rashly.

As for those clansmen who have left the Dongfang family, they are looking for a chance to return to the family led by Dongfang Li, they have not been happy with Dongfang Li's protection/umbrella for more than ten years, and they have been excluded everywhere.

Dongfang Li has the title of marquis of the Taiyi Dynasty, and there is also the tiger skin of the Yu Wangfu Mansion and the Qianfu Sect, and without this nominal backer, many things cannot be done, such as the weapons business in the clan, the Taiyi Dynasty only allows nobles to sell, and it is a felony for others to sell weapons.

This is Dongfang Li's Yangmou, as long as everyone asks him to stay and continue to be the head of the house, then he must play according to his rules, and if he is not allowed to be the head of the house, he will find a new group of people.

Just when everyone was silent, a guard hurriedly rushed into the main hall, ran to the center of the main hall, looked at the seventh uncle, Dongfang Caracal, and said loudly.

"From the head of the family, a messenger has arrived, and I heard that it is a messenger who has come to canonize the head of the family as the lord of Bamboo City."

"Boom."

As soon as the guard's words fell, the pot suddenly exploded, which was really incredible.

Dongfang is a marquis who has no fiefdom, but his status is high, if he becomes the lord of Zhucheng, then he can make Zhucheng the capital and open a state.

How could this Wei family agree? This is a question that the people of the clan pondered.

In other words, the East has been bitter for the past ten years, and it is about to rise again.

For people with different hearts, this is no less than a bolt from the blue.

"Haha, God bless me Dongfangli!"

Dongfang Li laughed, left the head of the house, and walked out of the door, since it is acting, the more exaggerated the better, as long as others start to believe, when he repels the Wei family, it will come true, and now this performance is needed to stabilize the interior of Zhucheng for him and buy time.

Determine the world, compete for the country, only the final result, do not need to look at how wonderful the process is, for the loser, the process is also wonderful in the mirror, the moon in the water.

As for what's wrong with cheating, Dongfang Li doesn't think about it at all, and when he succeeds, naturally someone who stumbles with him will jump out and explain, maybe this little trick will be sung and become a legend!

And all the people of the tribe followed, and they wanted to see if it was true or not.

"Meet Master Hou." Wei Xiaoyu stood outside the main gate of the Jue Mansion with four guards, and when he saw Dongfang Li appear, he said respectfully.

"I didn't expect that the people of the Wei family really came, could it be that the monarch Wei Yan had a sick brain and actually gave the bamboo city to our family master."

Many people in the Dongfang family know Wei Xiaoyu, and when they see Wei Xiaoyu, they all believe it in their hearts.

"Haha, I didn't expect it to be Brother Wei coming in person." Dongfang Li said with his fists clenched.

Wei Xiaoyu tidied up his clothes, took out a box, and said: "I was ordered to come and hand over the Great Seal of the Lord of Zhucheng City to the lord, and I hope that the lord will treat the people of Zhucheng well in the future." ”
