Dongfang Li took the box in Wei Xiaoyu's hand, opened it and saw that it was the Great Seal of the City Lord of Bamboo City.

"Congratulations, master." The old man of the family Dongfang reacted the fastest, and when he saw this, he immediately said: "Congratulations to the head of the family for becoming the lord of Zhucheng, and the opening of the mansion and the founding of the country are just around the corner." ”

Dongfang is cunning and cunning, when he saw the city lord's seal, he knew that from now on, the power of the Dongfang family would return to Dongfang Li's hands, and he was not qualified to be in power from a low position.

Seeing the lively clansmen even more elated, some clansmen even cried happily, Zhucheng Dongfang family has this piece of foundation since then, and it can be passed on from generation to generation, compared with the atmosphere just now, there has been a earth-shaking change.

With the position of the lord of Zhucheng City and Dongfang Li's hardcore supporters, at this time, the people in the family were worried that if Dongfang Li did not become the head of the family, they would lose a lot.

The family blood connection and the sect master and apprentice teaching are the most basic organizations in this world, and they are also the most reliable organizations, and the rights and status of the princes and relatives are very high, far more than most of the courtiers and disciples, even the few people in power who are now serving for Longyan County also want to come to Zhucheng and establish hegemony for their families.

"Congratulations to the Eastern City Lord." Wei Xiaoyu looked at the excited Dongfang clan and said happily.

Dongfang Li put away the city lord seal and said to Wei Xiaoyu: "Tongxi, Brother Wei, please." ”

"I have to go back to my life in the future, and I will visit again next time."

After Wei Xiaoyu finished speaking, he left in a hurry with the four guards, as if he had something important to deal with.

The second housekeeper arranged to watch the lively Zhucheng residents at the gate of the Dongfang family, and saw Wei Xiaoyu, the concubine of the Wei family, personally handing over the Great Seal of the Lord of Zhucheng to Dongfang Li, and immediately discussed.

"Oh my God, the Wei family really gave Bamboo City to Dongfang Ion Jue."

"It is worthy of being a descendant of the Holy Queen, the grandson of the King of Yu, I heard that he has been sick for more than ten years, and he will become the lord of Zhucheng City in a moment, and he will be a prince in the future, and he wants to take refuge in his doorman, now is the best time to take refuge in him, I will call my strong brother to take refuge in a while."

"Dongfang Li grew up in Zhucheng, which can be regarded as the pride of our Zhucheng, wouldn't it be better to be the monarch in the future, anyway, I will support him in the future."

Of course, the person who said these words was purely a navy arranged by Dongfang Li's second butler to strengthen his momentum.

Just as Wei Xiaoyu had just left, and Dongfang Li was about to turn around and enter the Jue's Mansion, there was a sudden chaos on the street, and someone shouted in horror: "Oh no, no, the Zhuang family and the Wei family are at war." ”

"What nonsense, these two have been fighting for hundreds of years without going to war, how do you know that the war will start today?"

"We've heard a lot of this kind of rumor, Wei Xiaoyu of the Wei family is still here just now, and I don't want the two families to go to war."

The person who shouted just now snorted coldly: "I am Zhang Xiaoli, an official in the inner city, not long ago I saw Zhuang Zi and his people slaughtering the City Lord's Mansion, and the blood flowed like a river, and my life was so big that I hid in the pool and escaped with my life." When the two families went to war, we, the ordinary officials, suffered. ”

In the end, Zhang Xiaoli cried.

"Is there a real fight?"

The others looked at each other when they saw this, and they didn't mean to joke when they saw this guy.

"No, Wei Xiaoyu left in a hurry after handing over the city lord's seal to the lord, there must be something." A navy of Dongfang Li also joined the discussion.

"Think about it carefully, Wei Xiaoyu's expression is wrong, I thought he was reluctant to hand over the position of the lord of Zhucheng City to Dongfang Ion Jue, it turned out that the Wei family and the Zhuang family were going to fight a decisive battle."

Dongfang Li knew that the extras were in place, so he walked up to him, comforted him in a low voice, and asked again with confirmation: "Your Excellency really witnessed Zhuang Zi and his people kill everyone in the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"Don't dare to deceive the Marquis, you can see that my clothes are full of blood, Zhuang Zi slaughtered the City Lord's Mansion and left with people, I escaped by luck, and other officials in the inner city are also missing, and I hope that the adults will help, and their life and death will depend on the adults."

Zhang Xiaoli made a fuss.

"Hey, I just received the Great Seal of the City Lord when such a big event happened." Dongfang Li sighed and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the inner city to see it right away, even if Zhuang Zi wants to continue killing people in the inner city, you have to ask me if Dongfang Litong agrees." ”

Then, he shouted to the guards at the main gate: "Come, follow me to the inner city." ”

"Yes!" The guard replied.

The butler set up the carriage that had been prepared from the door, and Dongfang Li got into the carriage and walked towards the inner city with the support of a group of guards.

The elders of the family and the clansmen also followed behind Dongfang, ready to see the excitement.

Entering the inner city again, Dongfang Li found that the door was no longer guarded at this time, and the entire inner city was dark at this time, only the faint lights of the military camp city lord's mansion were flashing.

When Dongfang Li came to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, he met Zhuang Zi walking out of the City Lord's Mansion with people, and the people behind her pressed a group of officials of the Bamboo City.

"Zhuang Zi, I didn't expect that the City Lord's Mansion was really destroyed." Dongfang Li stepped out of the carriage and said to Zhuang Zi: "Even if the Zhuang family fights with each other, it should not implicate the ordinary officials in the city, they are the people who serve the people of Zhucheng, not the die-hard members of the Wei family. ”

Zhuang Zi listened and said coldly: "Any official who is not loyal to my Zhuang family should be executed, Wei and Zhuang are fighting, how can these people do if they want to be wall grass?" ”

"Now that I am the lord of Zhucheng City, these officials are my subordinates, don't you want to go against me by killing them." Dongfang Li said lightly, and at this time, his joy and anger were invisible.

"I heard that the Wei family gave you Zhucheng this afternoon, but I didn't expect it to be true." Zhuang Zi was a little surprised: "Even if you are the new city lord of Zhucheng, how many of these officials are willing to be loyal to you, you must know that they are all holding the Wei family's monthly salary." ”

"I think they are all loyal ministers, and they are willing to swear allegiance to the Wei family, and they must be willing to be loyal to me!" Dongfang Li said.

"Haha, you are so confident, or I will make a bet with you, if you win, I will release them, if you lose, then they will all be killed by me." Zhuang Zi said with a smile.

Dongfang spread his hands and said helplessly: "Do you think I can refuse?" ”

"You can't refuse, if you refuse, I'll kill them all right away." Zhuang Zi shook his head and said.

"What a gamble." Dongfang Li asked.

Zhuang Zi thought for a moment and said, "Let's see if they are willing to follow you or me from now on." If there are more people with me, you lose, and if there are more people with you, I lose. ”

"Well, that's not fair." Dongfang said: "You put the knife on their necks, do they dare not follow you?" ”

"When I say fair, it's fair." Zhuang Zi squinted and said.

"Okay, then I'll gamble, but I want you to untie them all, and those who are willing to follow me will stand by my side, and those who are willing to follow you will stand still." Dongfang Li paused and said, "If Miss Zhuang dares to play tricks, I guarantee that you and the people behind you will not be able to get out of this inner city." ”

Speaking of this, Dongfang Li's momentum burst out again.

Zhuang Zi frowned and said: "I didn't expect your strength to be so strong, you can defeat the monarch Wei Yan when you are in the Grandmaster Realm, and now the Great Grandmaster doesn't know if you can defeat the peerless master who changed his life for a thousand years?" ”。

"I didn't expect the head of the family to break through the Great Grandmaster quietly."

"The family has broken through the Great Grandmaster, the number one master in Longyan County is worthy of his name, and even the Wei family will not dare to target the family master at will in the future."

Some of the clansmen behind Dongfang said excitedly.

The rogues around Wei Zi untied the shackles of the officials in Zhucheng, although the officials in Zhucheng City were not wiped out here, but there were also seven or eight out of ten here.

"You should hear what I and Master Hou said clearly, now you choose for yourself, if you choose the wrong one, don't blame anyone." Zhuang Zi waved his hand.

Dongfang Li took out the big seal in the box and said: "Everyone, this is the big seal of the city lord that Wei Xiaoyu gave me, I think you should know, I am now your new city lord, and now you can make a choice." ”

This group of forty or fifty officials looked at the city lord seal in Dongfang Li's hand, and they all chose Dongfang Li without hesitation.

They are all a group of human spirits, and they are very smart, otherwise how can they mix up to their current position, and then they know how to choose, Dongfang Li's strength just now is so strong, they have a guarantee for their lives, and they are not afraid of Zhuang Zi's remorse.

At the same time, they are officials in Zhucheng, and their families and connections are in Zhucheng, so it is unrealistic not to follow the East and take refuge in Zhuang Zi, after all, Zhuang Zi can't give them a future.

And looking at Zhuang Zi's actions today, they all guessed that the thirty-six cities of Longyan County would be in chaos in the future.

The Wei family and the dealer are fighting, and now they may be liquidated by the Wei family in the future, and they have nothing to do with the fact that they have nothing to do with the two families who wins, and the sky is falling and there is Dongfang Liding.

Dongfang left his heart and said, "Haha, Miss Zhuang, I'm sorry you lost." ”

"If you lose, you lose, it's not a big deal." Zhuang Zi said indifferently: "Since you have become the city lord, are you going to be close to our Zhuang family, or are you close to the Wei family?" ”

"I'm weak, I just want to live in Bamboo City, and I don't want to get involved in the affairs of your Zhuang family and the Wei family." Dongfang Li said decisively.

"If you want to participate in the future, work with the dealer." After Zhuang Zi finished speaking, he left with a group of soldiers in a dashing manner.

Dongfang Li watched Zhuang Zi leave, and said with a smile: "Everyone, except for the City Lord's Mansion, the rest of the inner city has not been destroyed by Zhuang Zi, I think everyone should appease the people in the inner city now, which of you is the Captain of the Bamboo City?" ”

A young official dressed in a shabby robe, but white and neat, stood up and said: "The city lord, the most important officials in the city have all been killed by Zhuang Zi, and the captains, captains, captains, tax officers, and city commanders are all vacant. ”

"What's your name?" Dongfang Li asked.

This young man was just caught by Zhuang Zi with a fearless face, very calm, he was dressed the worst among the officials, and he should have a bad family background, but a person with a bad family background became an official, which made Dongfang Li suddenly interested.

There is no imperial examination in this world, and there is no official promotion examination, and the appointment of officials is completely a set, and being recommended by others and appreciated by officials leads to most of the officials being relatives of the powerful.

Officials without background often start as protégés, become protégés of the powerful, and are appreciated before they have the opportunity to be promoted or appointed as officials.

"Back to the city lord, in Xia Wangmu." Wang Mu introduced himself very competently: "I used to be a little zai next to Lord Chengzai. ”
