The huge changes that took place in Gaozhou City completed the entire process from launch to end in one day. Except for the residents near the North City Gate, who witnessed a battle that almost overthrew the rule of Gaozhou City, the other ordinary people didn't even notice any changes.

Of course, the "ordinary people" here refer to the ordinary people who are in the lower strata of society. The small family, which has a little status and can know some news, is afraid and trembling on this day, for fear of being implicated.

Half of the top four families in Gaozhou City were removed, and the Liu family and the Zhang family rolled up the bunk and moved away. The haste of the various forms and the haste of the actions are enough to get a glimpse of the lucrative fixed assets such as restaurants and shops in the city.

Those many small families and small forces that were attached to the two major families either saw that the momentum was not right and hurried to act, following the Liu and Li families to leave. Either abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and quickly change to a thigh to hug.

If this can be regarded as a peaceful evolution, then the battle at the North City Gate shook all the insiders in Gaozhou City.

Holy Empire! Tang Fengjun! Anthony!

Recently, the Holy Empire has been active in the Southern Federation frequently, and it has been divided and divided, and it has been seen a lot. However, it was the first time that the army had officially launched and invaded blatantly.

Does this mean that the Holy Empire has lost patience with the various city lords of the Southern Federation, and is ready to deal with the potential threats to the south of their realm in a more direct and brutal way?

In this case, Tang Fengjun made his debut as an ally, and he worked hand in hand with the city lord to annihilate the invading Divine Emperor ** team in one fell swoop, which was very powerful and timely.

Not to mention, there was also an Anthony pulled out.

Regardless of the choice of the city lords of the other cities of the Southern Federation, Gaozhou City has in fact stood on the opposite side of the Holy Empire. In the face of such a behemoth, no one in the city trembles in his heart. Even if Li Yongchang did a pretty good job in the position of city lord, with the small size of Gaozhou City, no one thought that he could withstand the heavy pressure of the Holy Empire.

But if you can get Anthony's help and shelter, that's a different story.

There is that ambitious, whimsical, and even begun to plan in his head: first stabilize the situation in Gaozhou City, and then attack the surrounding cities, reunite the territory of the former Southern Federation, and turn it into a cohesive and powerful empire. Based on this, they rejected the Holy Empire in the north, Helsinki in the west, and the desert kingdom in the east...... Huangtu hegemony, set sail here!

Although this daydream was made a little early, it was not unfounded. Anthony's rise to prominence in the glorious empire has made everyone see his eloquence. Before the Southern Federation was divided, its territory, economy, and military strength were many times stronger than that of the Brilliant Empire. With a man like Anthony at the helm, who would dare to say that there is no possibility of realizing a brilliant dream?

It's just that in front of this grand blueprint, poor Li Yongchang's father and son were ignored so gorgeously......

In the City Lord's Mansion, the atmosphere in the past two days seemed a little dull and depressing.

The status of the Li family in Gaozhou City is equivalent to the royal family of a country, and it has always been high, making people look up and worship. Even the servants in the house have a sense of superiority psychologically.

But a few days ago, Zhang Pengfei led people to besiege the City Lord's Mansion, and brazenly killed people in front of the City Lord's wife and daughter, which was tantamount to giving them a slap in the face and making them remember that they were just mortals. As long as the knife comes down, the head will also fall to the ground, and the soul will return to the underworld.

In addition, many people around him were dug up one after another - Manager Hu was the highest position in Zhang Pengfei, but obviously he could not be the only traitor - and was punished extremely harshly, and the people in the city lord's mansion were even more silent.

Among them, the biggest change is the daughter of the Li family, Li Menghan.

"Tuk Tuk!"

There was a knock on the door outside, and Long Aotian in the house frowned slightly, and sighed softly, but soon changed to a smile, and said loudly: "Come in, the door is not locked." ”

With a squeak, the door was pushed open, and as Long Aotian expected, it was Li Menghan who was becoming more and more silent who came in.

I saw that the pretty girl's face was a little haggard, and her expression was dazed, as if she had an extremely important but difficult to answer question in her heart.

Li Menghan was alone, and Xiaoyu, the personal maid who was inseparable from her, was stabbed by Zhang Pengfei, although she was lucky not to die, she was also seriously injured, and she was not able to get out of bed at this time.

When Long Aotian saw her appearance, he couldn't help but sigh again.

The girl seemed to be awakened, but she didn't forget to salute Long Aotian before she spoke.

"Mr. Elon is mighty, what else will make you shake your head and sigh?"

Long Aotian shook his head, laughed at himself, and said, "Even the gods who are high up in the sky can't do everything well. Think of me as a mortal, and what is it? ”

Li Menghan originally asked casually, and she didn't intend to dig deeper, she still had questions she couldn't figure out, and she was about to ask Long Aotian for answers.

"Meng Han visited rashly, disturbed Mr. Qingxiu, and asked Mr. not to blame. It's just because Meng Han has a problem in his heart, and he can't figure it out. He is wise and wise, and he is the best in the world. Meng Han had no choice but to take the liberty of coming to Mr. for help. ”

"Miss Li, please speak." Long Aotian stretched out his hand to lead her to sit down, and he was not very modest about the evaluation of the world. Because he knew in his heart that the girl opposite was preoccupied, and she had no intention of paying attention to whether she was modest or not.

Li Menghan spoke slowly, a sad look appeared on his face.

"What happened a few days ago, I believe that Mr. Long must know everything. Father and elder brother teamed up to set up a big game, counting the Liu family, the Zhang family, and the Holy Empire. Not only did they deceive everyone in Gaozhou City, but even my mother and daughter also deceived them. Poor my mother didn't know how many hearts and tears she shed for her son's nonsense and lack of progress. Only now did I know that she was all worried about it before, and her son was very good, much better than ordinary people. Maybe she should be happy and relieved about this result, right? ”

Long Aotian looked at her and laughed twice, but there was no smile in his voice.

Long Aotian didn't speak, he knew he just needed to listen now.

"She is my brother's mother, I am his sister, we are family! Is there anything you can't tell us? Well, maybe we're women and don't fit to be involved in men's struggles. But it's been two or three days, and no one has come to explain it to me. ”

Li Menghan's voice became higher and higher, and he almost shouted loudly in the back, his voice was hoarse, with hidden anger, and a trace of unwilling and aggrieved crying.

She attaches great importance to flesh and blood affection, and because of this, even if Li Ruizhi is incapable of messing around anymore, she only has worry and care, but she never thinks of disliking and letting go.

But it was this brother who made her love and hate, and her father, whom she admired the most, teamed up to deceive herself. This made her feel so heartbroken and lost.

And what made Li Menghan sad and even angry the most was that so far, the brother who seemed to have become a complete stranger did not come to talk to him.

Li Menghan was sad, angry, and confused, she didn't know who she could talk to, and she didn't know who could solve the doubts in her heart.

Somehow, she thought of Long Aotian.
