Volume 1 Barren Encounter Chapter 105 Waiting and Change (3)
"What? You don't trust him? Hong keenly sensed Shang Kaikai's hesitation.
"I can't say it, I just think that this person is too deep in his mind and a little difficult to control, I asked him once if he would like to join me, and he just gave me an ambiguous answer, not a promise or a refusal," Shang Kaikai remembered a discussion he had with Zheng Duo a year ago, and a trace of unhappiness rose in his heart.
"Then you go to him again to talk to see what he is thinking, if he is really willing to help you, it will be a tiger for you, and those spies under him are much more professional than those in the Gongbei Domain," Hong reminded one more sentence before turning off the communication, "You have to make sure that he really helps you sincerely, not helping you in a vain and unjust manner, and that's it, if he is bought by the Gongbei Domain, you still don't know, and you think that he really helps you, then at that time, you really don't even know how you died, understand?" β
Shang Qikai nodded solemnly and turned off the communicator. After that, he thought about it for a long time before he figured out how to talk to Zheng Duo about it, but what he didn't expect was that Gong Beiyu had already found Zheng Duo one step ahead of him, and when he was talking to Hong, Gong Bei Yu was already in secret talks with Zheng Duo.
On the top floor of the Central District Administration Building in the Northern Regions of the Palace, Huang Qilin took Zheng Duo to a secret room next to the office of the Northern District of the Palace. Zheng Duo has come to this office many times to see the northern region of the palace, and this is the first time he knows that there is a secret door here. When Zheng Duo followed Huang Qilin into this secret room, he found that Gong Beiyu was already sitting there waiting for him.
"Duo, please be seated," Gong Beiyu called out very intimately, and the entire aura was soft, not as cold as usual.
Zheng Duo couldn't figure out what the Gongbei Domain was looking for him or meeting in secret, so he just nodded cautiously and sat down, not as friendly as the Gongbei Domain.
Gong Beiyu understood Zheng Duo's caution, so he showed a friendly smile at him, "Don't be nervous, I asked you to come because I want to discuss something with you, this room has been specially treated, and no signal can be detected, our stay here is like disappearing for people outside, no one knows that we have met, let alone what we talked about, only I can hear what you say, and only you can hear what I say, that's all,"
Zheng Duo raised an eyebrow, which was completely unexpected by him. He, the person in charge of information security, didn't even know that there was such a completely secret room in the northern part of the palace.
Seeing Zheng Duo's surprised expression, the corners of his mouth unconsciously showed a smile, "I am the head of the district, and there are many things that I have the right to keep secret, after all, even you can't guarantee that the people under you are loyal, can you?" β
Zheng Duo felt that Gong Beiyu's indifferent smile seemed to tell him that he was in control of any situation. Zheng Duo tried to calm down before he spoke, "You have taken such pains to come to me, and you have not hesitated to expose your secret room, there must be something important to talk to me,"
Gong Beiyu nodded slightly with a smile, staring at Zheng Duo's eyes with a streamer, as if he wanted to see through this person.
Zheng Duo twisted his body uncomfortably by the eyes of the palace north region, and silently waited for the palace north region to speak.
After a long time, Gong Beiyu withdrew his eyes and said in a cold tone, "You, have you been helping Shang Kai plan to impeach me?" β
Zheng Duo stared at Gongbei Domain with round eyes, he could guess that Gongbei Domain was going to talk to him about Shang Kai, but he didn't expect Gongbei Domain to ask this question so directly, which made him not know what to say. Courier
After a moment of silence, Zheng Duo spoke, "I just did what I had to do, I didn't join forces with anyone," After saying this, Zheng Duo saw that Gong Beiyu only bowed slightly, but he didn't know if it was because he believed his words or simply said that he accepted his message.
"Okay, that's good," Gong Beiyu suddenly accentuated his tone to affirm Zheng Duo's words, but immediately changed the tone again, "But, I hope you can distinguish what you should do and what you shouldn't, if you exceed your authority and do what you shouldn't, I also have my means to make you disappear from the position of district head, you should be able to understand what I mean,"
"Of course I know what I should do," Zheng Duo replied immediately, and at the same time asked the northern region of the palace, "but what if you do something you shouldn't do?" β
"Whether I am derelict in my duty or not, the Central Council will naturally make a judgment, this is not something you should worry about, I came to you today just to know one thing," Gong Beiyu suddenly put away his gentle aura, and his whole body exuded an oppressive cold, so that Zheng Duo who was sitting in front of him couldn't help but want to lean back.
"What's the matter?" Priest Priest struggled to stay calm.
"If Shang Kaikai insists on launching a military coup d'Γ©tat and plunging the Fifth District into a state of war, are you willing to stand on my side and help me stop the war, or would you prefer to stand on Shang Kai's side and help him wage war more effectively?" Gong Beiyu finally said the true purpose of his interview with Duo.
The first response that the levy Duo gave to the northern region of the palace was, "I don't like war,"
Gong Beiyu heard the second half of Zheng Duo's obvious words, "But what? β
"However, that doesn't mean I'm willing to be on your side," Zheng Duo felt that the war had to be stopped, but he was unwilling to let him join forces with the Gongbei Domain.
Gong Beiyu nodded, "I see, you don't like war, but you don't like joining forces with me either, do you?" β
Priest nodded.
Gong Beiyu pursed his lips and sneered, "Duo, I think that your dislike of me is a personal problem, and the war is the problem of everyone in the five regions, so, my suggestion is that you can help me stop Shang Kai first, and after the hidden danger of war is eliminated, we will discuss the matter of you not liking me, I think you can join Jiao Huangcan and them to impeach me, in fact, you have already had this thought, haven't you?" Do you think my suggestion is reasonable? β
After saying these words, Gong Beiyu stared at Zheng Duo, waiting for his answer. His eyes were sharp and powerful, like a predator ready to pounce on his prey.
Zheng Duo was stared at by the palace north region and unconsciously lowered his head slightly, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Under the sharp eyes of Gongbei Domain, Zheng Duo felt that his mind could not be hidden at all, and he felt that as long as he said no, Gongbei Domain would pounce and destroy himself in the next second.
Zheng Duo closed his eyes to calm himself down, ignoring the aura of the Northern Domain. Zheng Duo, who calmed down, had to admit that Gongbei was right, and it was only a personal matter that he didn't like Gongbei Domain, and the war was a matter of life for everyone in the five regions. Moreover, Gongbei Domain came to him for a secret meeting today, the purpose of which was to know his thoughts. Zheng Duo could imagine that if he rejected the palace north region, after he left this room, the palace north region would definitely use means to make him disappear for a period of time, until he cut Shang Kai off. Zheng Duo felt that in the face of such a mind in the northern part of the palace, Shang Kaikai's chances of winning were very small, so since Shang Kai's ending was already doomed, why should he perish with him.
