Even Zhou Zai sent someone to secretly investigate the reason, but did not find any clues, which made Zhou Zai very distressed, when Zhou Yu kept asking to visit the wealthy family, Zhou Zai felt that something was wrong, and sure enough, Zhou Yu finally broke out in Fufu.

For this scene, Zhou Yu has been planning for a long time and only owes Dongfeng, and visiting Fu Mansion is to ask for Dongfeng, in front of many wealthy families to refute Zhou Zheng mercilessly, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to Zhou Zheng's prestige, even if Zhou Zheng is the city lord of Yunzhou, without prestige, and has lost the support of the wealthy families in the city, it will be easy to further suppress Zhou Zheng and seize the position of city lord.

Zhou Zai's face was gloomy, he realized that Zhou Yu was finally ready to turn his face, and he also understood that today's visit to Fu Mansion was a bureau set up by Zhou Yu for him, although the situation was extremely unfavorable to Zhou Zai, but it also instantly solved many doubts in Zhou Zao's heart.

"Shizi, this imperial capital is a place to select talents and discover talents, if there is really a proud son of the sky, just because he did not participate in the Shangcheng competition, there will be no chance, wouldn't it be a great loss for the Yue Kingdom? ”

Seeing that Zhou Zheng was deflated, and thinking that Zhou Zheng took good care of himself in the soul test, Fu Lei opened his mouth indifferently and broke the silence of the hall.

Everyone looked at Fu Lei dumbfounded, no one thought that Fu Lei would dare to speak for Zhou Zheng at this time, theoretically speaking, this matter can be big or small, Zhou Yu used this to suppress Zhou Zheng as an excuse, but as soon as Fu Lei's words came out, Zhou Zheng's behavior was placed in the general righteousness of the country, and Zhou Yu could no longer threaten this matter, even if he insisted on this, the impact on Zhou Zheng would become much smaller.

Hearing Fu Lei's words, Fu Jingming nodded secretly, and did not mean to blame, Zhou Zheng was even more like an initiation, and suddenly became energetic.

"That's right, I just took into account that Fu Lei is indeed talented, and he missed the Yunzhou City Competition only because of his cultivation, so he added it to the Imperial Capital Dabi, if this kind of heart for the country is also wrong, how much will it chill the hearts of his fellow officialdom. ”

Seeing Zhou Yu staring at Fu Lei with an extremely unkind face, Zhou Yu did not hesitate to speak, and got up to block Fu Lei behind him.

"Okay, very good, that's bitter for the City Lord of Zhou, and I'm really grateful to this Fu Gongzi, I almost misunderstood the City Lord Zhou's heart for the country, I'm sorry. Zhou Yu's face quickly recovered, and he said with a smile.

Hearing Zhou Yu's tone changed instantly, as if Fang Cai was really just a misunderstanding, this made Fu Lei not happy, but more vigilant, thinking in his heart, no wonder Zhou Zheng couldn't fight Zhou Yu, just this city government can throw Zhou Zheng a few streets.

"However, I also heard that there was an inter-family war in Yunzhou City half a year ago, which had a great impact, and you also have an unshirkable responsibility as the city lord, you should not deny this. ”

Zhou Yu only paused for a few breaths, and then asked again, so that everyone's originally slightly relaxed hearts were mentioned again, and at the same time, everyone also understood that Zhou Yu had been planning for a long time, and he was bent on solving the Zhou Tribulation, and he was fully prepared.

"I am naturally responsible for this matter, but I stopped the fight between the two sides that night, and all the relevant families, including me, compensated the victimized families, and also settled the matter, as evidenced by the fact that many wealthy patriarchs are here. ”

After speaking, Zhou Zheng's eyes were firmly fixed on the four major families that attacked Fu Mansion, Zhong Jiuluo and Xue Zhejing bowed their heads and turned a deaf ear, but Xu Mu and Wei Chiling hurriedly said in unison: "Exactly, this matter has been closed as the city lord said." ”

"Oh, it's closed, it's true that it's closed, but what is the explanation for the deal behind the scenes?"

Zhou Yu had contempt in his tone, which made everyone wonder, in the hearts of the wealthy families, Zhou Zheng as the city lord has always been a matter of inaction and governing naturally, and does not interfere too much in the development of the wealthy families, and the major families also have greater freedom, otherwise how could there be four major families to destroy the door and pay the house.

"Behind the scenes, is there a city lord behind this?"

"It may not be necessary to add fuel to the fire, but it must have been tacitly approved by the City Lord's Mansion at that time. ”

Hearing Zhou Yu's words, a very slight discussion sounded in the hall, and Zhou Zheng was even more suspicious.

"What's going on behind your back? Zhou Yu, you should talk about it, there is no basis for empty words, otherwise you will bear the consequences. ”

Zhou Zheng is the lord of a city, even if he knows that he has something wrong with this matter, he does not admit it, otherwise it will be a fatal blow to his prestige.

Due to anger and grievance, Zhou Yu's face turned red, he didn't expect Zhou Yu's methods to be so sharp, and if he couldn't make a move, he would immediately change his moves, so that he was always on the cusp of rising waves.

"Hmph, ask me for evidence, if I don't have evidence, how can I say it easily, if you don't have a weak heart, how can your face become so ugly?"

Zhou Yu did not hesitate to speak, but did not show any evidence, he has been in the imperial capital for a long time, far more than Zhou Zheng has experienced more officialdom, and he also knows the important role of psychological warfare.

Seeing that the dispute between the two was escalating, everyone looked at each other, but they didn't dare to speak out at this moment to offend the two of them, and everyone knew that if they didn't say the right thing, they might cause the family to suffer a catastrophe.

Looking at Zhou Zheng who was in a weak position, Fu Lei did not speak again, looked at Zhou Yu coldly, once Zhou Zheng had also apologized to him for this matter, after the soul test Zhou Zheng's heartfelt help, Fu Lei had already been relieved of this matter, but he didn't expect Zhou Yu to mention it again today.

"Zhou Zheng, I have already secretly investigated what you did during your time as the lord of Yunzhou City, except for the matter of resisting soul beasts, you have done a little, and the others can be said to be useless, and you have not fulfilled the main duties of a city, and when I return to the imperial capital, I will definitely report and dismiss you." ”

Zhou Yu is very good at scheming, and he knows Zhou Zheng very well, and he knows that even if he talks about it and says that Zhou Zheng's strategy of governing the city is useless, Zhou Zheng will not be able to strongly refute him.

Seeing Zhou Zai's face flushed, his neck and muscles bursting out, and no one around him dared to speak for Zhou Zai, Zhou Yu looked at him angrily on the surface, but he was already proud in his heart, everything was tilting in the direction of Zhou Yu's ideal, and Zhou Yu seemed to have a sense of victory.

"Shizi, have you really investigated the city lord's strategy and merits in governing the city? Yunzhou has grown from a small city on the border of Yue Kingdom to a million people living and working in Yunzhou now, these are all the merits of the city lord. ”

Fu Lei's voice resounded in the hall again, and the major giants looked at Fu Lei dumbfounded, and even Zhou Zheng was surprised, and he didn't understand why Fu Lei always spoke out to help at critical moments.

"Boy, where is your place to interject here? a disabled person, get out there and recuperate. ”

Seeing that Fu Lei repeatedly opposed him and helped Zhou Zheng, Zhou Yu's face towards Fu Lei also became ugly, and he scolded loudly.

"Hmph, Fu Lei is the first day of Yunzhou City, and his cultivation is on par with many patriarchs, so he naturally has the right to speak. ”

Zhou Zheng immediately opened his mouth to refute Zhou Yu, and looked at Fu Lei with a little more gratitude, in the battle of words with Zhou Yu, he was indeed not good at it.

"Boy, do you know the price you have repeatedly offended me, Patriarch Fu, do you support your son to be so disrespectful?" Zhou Yu said sharply, and at the same time looked at Fu Jingming, who was still silent.

"The child is ignorant, and I hope that the prince will bear with me, you see that it is not too early today, why don't you talk about your dissatisfaction with the city lord another day?" Fu Jingming said slowly, making the dispute between Zhou Yu and Zhou Zheng a personal idea, the Yue State has a clear rule that without the support of the wealthy families in Yunzhou, Zhou Yu will not be able to write a letter to remove the city lord.

"Zhou Yu, you just rely on your royal status plus flattery to gain a foothold in the imperial capital, in terms of strength, I can beat you to doubt life. ”

Zhou Zai suddenly spoke, but everyone was in a daze, especially Zhong Jiuluo wiped the sweat beads off his forehead without a trace, the patriarchs of the wealthy families present had all seen Zhou Zai make a move, don't look at Zhou Zao's work is quite gentlemanly, once he starts, he definitely belongs to the category of people who don't talk much.

Speaking of this, Zhou Zheng seemed to have returned to his self-confidence, staring at Zhou Yu with unkind eyes, making Zhou Yu's expression change suddenly and his movements stagnated, and then he looked at the white-haired old man in the corner.
