Chapter 737: Head to Head

Undoubtedly, Luoyang's words shocked Shangguan Mingdao to the extreme at this moment, and he never thought that things would change like this after all.

His face was already extremely pale, and his breathing had become extremely short.

He subconsciously looked at Lin Chen on the side, and when he noticed the smile in Lin Chen's eyes, Shangguan Mingdao became even more angry.

"This is your plan and Ouyang Hui's plan?"

Lin Chen said with a smile: "The Shangguan City Lord really thinks highly of me. ”

"Now, I haven't had even the slightest communication with Ouyang City Lord, so how can I discuss any plan with him?"

Shangguan Mingdao's face became even more gloomy.

Lin Chen said with a smile: "Come to think of it, this should be the people of Qiutan City who have been holding grudges against the Shangguan City Lord for a long time, and there is just an opportunity, so they simply seize it." ”

Looking at Shangguan Mingdao's cold gaze, Lin Chen slowly spoke: "I know that the Shangguan City Lord is very angry now, but I still want to advise the Shangguan City Lord, the top priority is to calm down the anger of those people as soon as possible." ”

"Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to sit for long as you become the city lord."

Shangguan Mingdao's face was even more ugly, and he was naturally very aware of this.

I didn't expect that now I was being calculated by a small person.

What Lin Chen said had nothing to do with him, Shangguan Mingdao naturally couldn't believe it, although he didn't know what kind of means Lin Chen had, he could also detect it a little.

If this is really a reckless man with no thoughts, it is absolutely impossible to escape from the death row in Dongcheng District, and he can still take so many prisoners out.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Mingdao's face was extremely solemn.

He stared at Lin Chen and slowly said, "I'll clean you up when I come back." ”

Hearing this, a smile flashed in Lin Chen's eyes.

"Then I have to talk about it when the Shangguan City Lord comes back."

"Humph!"

What responded to Lin Chen was a cold snort from Shangguan Mingdao, and then Shangguan Mingdao immediately left the dungeon with Luoyang.

Looking at the figure that disappeared from sight, the corners of Lin Chen's mouth hooked up a sneer.

And then, in the dense darkness of the dungeon, there was a faint sound of footsteps.

Lin Chen's gaze was fixed in the direction where the footsteps came from, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a smile.

"You're here a little faster than I thought."

The person who came from the corner was Xu Yin, his gaze was fixed on Lin Chen's body, and after a little thought, he slowly said, "It's good to be there, what a plan." ”

Pressing Xu Yin in front of him with a smile, Lin Chen said with a playful expression: "What you say is a bit unreasonable, the plan is made by you, why do you ask me." ”

Xu Yin's face was full of black lines, and he sighed before he spoke: "That's it, without further ado, let's start acting as soon as possible." ”

"What City Lord Ouyang means is that it is best for you to act completely according to our plan, after all, you should know very well how dangerous this operation is, and what kind of person Shangguan Mingdao is, you should be able to see it without me."

"In this Qiutan City, the only one who can fight with him is the Ouyang City Lord."

Lin Chen shrugged and smiled, and then said, "It's decided." ”

At the same time, Shangguan Mingdao and Luoyang had already left the dungeon, and after returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Shangguan Mingdao really figured out what was happening here.

The situation in front of him was far more chaotic than he imagined, the entire City Lord's Mansion had been besieged by the people in the city, and it was initially estimated that there were at least more than a thousand people rushing to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion.

This situation made Shangguan Mingdao's face extremely gloomy in an instant.

This was definitely not what he wanted to see, even if he sat in the main hall, he could still hear the constant sound of exhalation.

His face was already hard to see, and his heart was already filled with incomparable anger.

"What the is going on!"

Even Shangguan Mingdao couldn't help but burst out with a foul language at this moment.

Luoyang on the side didn't dare to say even the slightest word, the situation in front of them was really beyond everyone's expectations, they really wanted to change the situation in front of them, expel those people from the City Lord's Mansion as soon as possible, and let the City Lord's Mansion be more or less quiet.

But they don't know what to do with the situation right now.

If the Silver Armor Army is ordered to directly attack those people, the situation will inevitably become more troublesome, but if it is directly ignored, the situation will inevitably become more and more chaotic.

After thinking about it, a realization suddenly rose in Luoyang's heart, and he hurriedly said: "City Lord, those people outside must be led by someone, maybe as long as we can find the person who is really the leader, we can change this situation." ”

Luoyang's words made Shangguan Mingdao also react, and after a little thought, he hurriedly said, "Then don't hurry up and find it!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

Luoyang nodded hurriedly and left the main hall quickly, and just as Luoyang walked on the front foot, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside.

"City Lord."

The spy quickly walked into the hall and knelt directly on one knee, his face full of complexity.

Seeing this, Shangguan Mingdao immediately frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

The sudden sound made the spy stunned for a moment, and a panicked look suddenly appeared on his face, but he soon suppressed the panic in his heart, and swallowed his saliva fiercely before saying, "It's Ouyang City Lord, he's here." ”

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Mingdao's face became even more gloomy.

The last time they met, the relationship between the two had dropped directly to the freezing point, not to mention that the reason why this situation happened this time was completely Ouyang Hui's strategy, this city lord who was ordered by the king to appear at such a time, what was the reason?

Doubt.

Extremely doubts kept rushing in Shangguan Mingdao's heart, making his face constantly change.

After thinking for a long time, he took a deep breath, and then slowly said, "Please let him in." ”

As soon as these words fell, the steward in the City Lord's Mansion stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Shangguan City Lord, I'm afraid this is not appropriate. ”

"Ouyang Hui is obviously prepared, this kind of meeting with him, I'm afraid it will make our situation more or less passive."

Hearing this, Shangguan Mingdao slowly spoke, "Do you think I won't be able to think of this? ”

"But don't forget, after all, he is the city lord appointed by the king, if we can choose not to see him at another time, but if we still refuse to meet Shangguan Mingdao at this time, we will inevitably fall into the mouth, and in that case, our situation will be even worse."

"Ouyang Hui is sure that I will not dare to confront him head-to-head before I choose to meet at this time, once we refuse his entry, the rumors outside will definitely spread even more chaotic, and if someone mentions that I have a ghost in my heart, how can I explain it?"

Upon hearing this, the chief butler of the City Lord's Mansion immediately frowned.

He has already reacted.

Shangguan Mingdao calmed down after taking a deep breath, and then waved his hand and said, "Please let him in." ”

After a while, he heard the sound of footsteps, and Ouyang Hui walked slowly with a few soldiers wearing heavy armor in the distance, Shangguan Mingdao immediately got up and stepped forward when he saw this, hugged his fists and bowed slightly, and said: "Ouyang City Lord is here, please forgive me for missing it." ”

Although both of them are the city lords of this Qiutan City, they are theoretically equal, but everyone in Qiutan City knows that Ouyang Hui's status is still more or less half a head higher than Shangguan Mingdao, after all, no matter what, Ouyang Hui still has a title personally awarded by the king.

After glancing at Shangguan Mingdao lightly, Ouyang Hui smiled and said, "Shangguan City Lord doesn't have to be so polite, go in first and say it." ”

Shangguan Mingdao's face changed slightly, today's Ouyang Hui is different from the past, there is no kind of kindness on his body, but there is more majesty.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Hui's heart couldn't help but have an extra layer of haze.

Several people entered the main hall together, and without waiting for Shangguan Mingdao's invitation, Ouyang Hui sat directly on top of the head.

This action made the faces of everyone in the audience change.

This was clearly something they had not expected.

And under normal circumstances, Ouyang Hui would definitely not do this.

Shangguan Mingdao's face also changed, but he didn't say anything.

After taking his seat, Ouyang Hui glanced at Shangguan Mingdao before he smiled and said, "Shangguan City Lord, this time I came not to reminisce about the past, but to ask why this situation is happening outside the City Lord's Mansion. ”

"The people in the city are so anxious to let the Shangguan City Lord give them an explanation, I really want to know what this so-called explanation is."

Hearing Ouyang Hui's words, Shangguan Mingdao's face became even more gloomy.

What is the explanation, Ouyang Hui is naturally impossible not to know.

Knowingly, it must be linked to Ouyang Hui's conspiracy.

He stared at Ouyang Hui in front of him, and then said in a deep voice, "What does City Lord Ouyang mean by this?" ”

"The rumors of the people outside, could it be that the city lord Ouyang also thinks that it is true?"

"Lin Chen, what the hell is going on, you should know very well in your heart."

Ouyang Hui smiled when he heard this, and then said, "Of course I know what happened to Lin Chen. ”

He glanced at Shangguan Mingdao deeply, and this kind of look made Shangguan Mingdao feel very uncomfortable.

He couldn't figure out what Ouyang Hui was thinking now.

For many years, he had always regarded Ouyang Hui as his only opponent in Qiutan City, but there had been no real conflict of interest between the two over the years, which directly caused Shangguan Mingdao to lack some understanding of the old city lord of Qiutan City.

But on the contrary, Ouyang Hui knew him very well, this old city lord, knew his weaknesses!
